Korean rom-com Love Next Door has not only been performing well on South Korean TV, earning its highest ever rating for its last episode, it has also been a big hit on Netflix since it premiered on the streaming service on August 17th.
In fact, according to the Netflix-owned website Tudum, Love Next Door has climbed from the #5 spot on the platform’s Top 10 Non-English TV Shows chart last week to this week’s #2 spot during its second week on the streaming platform.
That increase in its Netflix ratings occurred after Love Next Door earned 3 million views on the platform, with 14.8 million hours viewed.
Not bad for a Korean drama that, honestly, did not receive that much promotion — either from Netflix or from the tvN network in South Korea before it began airing there.
Love Next Door stars Jung Hae In and Jung So Min in the lead roles, and airs every Saturday and Sunday in Korea, with new episodes appearing on Netflix on the same days.
The Korean rom-com’s next episode will air/stream on Saturday, August 31st.
