With the Korean Chuseok holiday coming to an end today, No Gain No Love, Episode 8 aired last night in South Korea to a slight ratings increase after earning its lowest rating yet the night before.

According to the numbers from Nielsen Korea, No Gain No Love, Episode 8 grabbed 2.90 percent of the nationwide audience on Tuesday night.

That is a slight increase from Episode 7’s all-time low viewership of 2.63 percent and, like the previous night, with the low rating likely as a result of the Chuseok holiday in South Korea.

Especially as the Kdrama is very popular with international viewers.

In Seoul, however, the reverse was true with No Gain No Love, Episode 8’s viewership falling further not rising.

In that region, the tvN drama earned its lowest ever rating, falling from an already low 3.05 percent on Monday night to Tuesday night’s 2.89 percent.

Hopefully, once viewing behavior has gone back to normal next week, we will see a rise back to the Kdrama’s usual more than 3.50 percent ratings and climbing next week.

No Gain No Love stars Shin Min Ah and Kim Young Da.

It airs on tvN every Monday and Tuesday evening through October 1st, with Amazon Prime Video streaming it for its subscribers internationally.
