Korean drama Buried Hearts, Episode 9 aired on SBS last night to its highest Friday ratings of its run so far.
That also likely means we will see even higher ratings for the revenge drama when it airs tonight, as its Friday episode usually earns a lower audience share than its Saturday.
Fingers crossed.

The nationwide rating for Buried Hearts, Episode 9 last night, by the way, was 12.2 percent — which is only .10 percent down from last Saturday’s viewership, and a very nice increase of 1.30 percent compared to last Friday’s.
In Seoul, Buried Hearts grabbed the same 12.2 percent rating, proving folks in South Korea’s capital are also loving the latest SBS crime drama as those in the countryside.
International ratings also on the rise
Meanwhile, international viewers are also increasing their ratings for Buried Hearts.
Over on My Drama List, for instance, the Korean drama is currently earning 8.3 out of 10 after nine episodes.
That’s up from the 8.1 out of 10 it was being given after its first episode aired. (No idea why people rate a drama after the first episode, but there ya go!).
According to Flix Patrol, Buried Hearts is also performing extremely well on Disney+ where it is currently in the Top 10 in five Asian countries — Hong Kong (#6), Japan (#6), Singapore (#7), South Korea (#3) and Taiwan (#4).
The Korean drama is also currently at #18 on the Disney+ Top 20 TV Shows chart worldwide.
