Heavenly Ever After EP10 earns lowest ever ratings as it heads into final week

Ongoing JTBC drama Heavenly Ever After, Episode 10 aired on Sunday night to, sadly, its lowest ratings yet.

Nielsen Korea is reporting the nationwide rating for Episode 10 of Heavenly Ever After was 4.94 percent.



That is quite a ways below its Saturday rating of 6.10 percent, and the lowest national rating the JTBC drama has earned since it premiered on April 19th.

The same occurred from viewers in Seoul, where the K-drama garnered a higher 5.27 percent of the viewership, but still a rating that was a marked fall from Episode 9’s viewership of 6.66 percent.

With just two episodes left to air before the JTBC drama ends then, let’s hope its reception from the Korean public is better next weekend, eh?

How is Heavenly Ever After faring internationally?

Internationally, the Korean drama has not fared well in the ratings since it premiered, which is odd as comments from international viewers are generally positive.

On My Drama List, for instance, it is earning a very low 7.7 out of 10 while, on IMDB, it is garnering a ridiculously low 6.9 out of 10.

Then again, that latter site has been populated by trolls for years, and the IMDB administration does nothing about curbing their idiocy.

Where it matters, however… on Netflix, where it is streaming internationally… Heavenly Ever After is currently sitting at #5 on the Top 10 Non-English TV Shows chart for its 3rd week in the Top 10.

It was in the Top 10 in 18 countries as well.

In other words, no matter that trolls downrate the K-drama, it has been an overwhelming success internationally.

Heavenly Ever After‘s final two episodes will air on May 24th and 25th in South Korea, and stream at the same time on Netflix.

I have a feeling it will end with much better ratings than last night’s, don’t you?
