The latest Buzzworthy Dramas stats are out via South Korea’s Good Data Corporation and, as you might expect if you are as addicted to the Korean drama as half of K-drama fans are right now, Queen of Tears is at #1.
Not only that, but the K-drama has now grabbed its 6th week in the top spot, beating out dramas like Wonderful World, Nothing Uncovered and Hide.
This week, the Buzzworthy Dramas list looks like this (see original source below):
- Queen of Tears
- Lovely Runner
- Wonderful World
- The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection
- Beauty and Mr. Romantic
- Nothing Uncovered
- Chief Detective 1958
- Missing Crown Prince
- The Third Marriage
- Hide
with the also praiseworthy addition to the list being Chief Detective 1958, considering that K-drama only premiered on Friday.
Like every week, Good Data Corporation creates their Buzzworthy Dramas list by looking at how many times each drama is mentioned in news articles, blog posts, on social media, in videos and in online forums.
And, as if Queen of Tears grabbing #1 on the Buzzworthy Drama list wasn’t enough, as well as no surprise to anyone, the show’s stars Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won were at #1 and #2 on the Buzzworthy Drama Actors list as well. (Full list here)
Kim Soo Hyun was also #1 in the April Brand Reputation Rankings in South Korea, with his co-star Kim Ji Won at #4.
