The tvN weekend drama “Queen of Tears,” which is nearing its end, has once again achieved a viewership rating in the 21% range.
According to Nielsen Korea‘s calculations on April 28th, the 15th episode of “Queen of Tears,” which aired on April 27th, recorded a viewership rating of 21.056% (based on nationwide paid broadcasting households, including cable channels).
However, this falls slightly below the self-recorded highest viewership rating of 21.6% achieved by the 14th episode, which aired on the 21st.
Although “Queen of Tears” has consistently maintained ratings in the 21% range for two consecutive episodes, it did not surpass the record of 21.7% set by tvN’s all-time highest-rated drama, “Crash Landing on You,” starring Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin.
The final episode, episode 16, of “Queen of Tears” will air on April 28th, and there is anticipation that it might break the record set by “Crash Landing on You.“
Meanwhile, due to the impact of “Queen of Tears,” the MBC Friday-Saturday drama “Chief Detective 1958” recorded a viewership rating of 7.1% (based on nationwide daily terrestrial ratings), which is lower than the 10.8% achieved by the 3rd episode aired the previous day.
“Chief Detective 1958” had also started with a rating of 10.1% in the previous week, but when “Queen of Tears” aired on Saturday, the 2nd episode recorded 7.8%.
SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama “The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection” achieved 2.1%, while KBS 2TV’s weekend drama “Beauty and Mr. Romantic” recorded 14.1%.
The MBN weekend drama “Missing Crown Prince” was rated at 1.6% on this day.
