The penultimate episode of The Divorce Insurance does not increase its audience
First let me say, while the ratings of The Divorce Insurance, Episode 11 plummeted to a very low all-time low on Monday night, I still do not think the Korean drama is as bad as critics and many audience members seem to think.
Sure, it is a shame that the superb cast of The Divorce Insurance has been subjected to a terrible script and some definitely questionable directing but, in my opinion, the performances of the main cast have gone a long way towards making The Divorce Insurance still a watchable, and in some instances, very funny show.
That being said, apparently, most of the South Korean audience who started out watching the show disagree with me as The Divorce Insurance, Episode 11’s ratings collapsed even further last night.

So low were they, the Korean drama that started out its run with a 3.23 percent audience share (the highest of its run) on March 31st, ended up with just 0.9% of the viewership last night.
This too just one episode before the K-drama ends later on tonight. Thus, not boding well for its series finale either.
The lowest rated tvN Monday-Tuesday night drama of 2025
If Monday night’s ratings weren’t bad enough for the K-drama, it also turns out it is easily the lowest-rated tvN Monday-Tuesday night drama of 2025 so far.
That is because, not only was it unable to raise its ratings even a tenth of a percentage point from its first episode, at this point in their run predecessors My Dearest Nemesis with a 4.34 percent rating for its 11th episode and The Queen Who Crowns, which grabbed 5.81 percent of the nationwide audience, were markedly more successful.
Yep, The Divorce Insurance cast of Lee Dong Wook, Lee Joo Bin, Lee Kwang Soo and Lee Da Hee deserved a lot better.
The final episode of the Korean drama will hit tvN and TVING in South Korea later on tonight, while international viewers will be able to watch it via Amazon Prime Video. (Where with, granted only 20 people rating, surprisingly it is earning a 5 out of 5 stars rating).
Update: The final episode of The Divorce Insurance did see higher ratings, but barely
