Soon after the Korean drama The Real Has Come, Episode 45 finished airing, Nielsen Korea released its official numbers proving the weekend family drama is still the most successful show of any kind airing on a Saturday in South Korea.
According to them, The Real Has Come, Episode 45 earned 21.00 percent of the audience nationwide, which is a slight increase from last Saturday evening’s show.
That rating earned the show the title of the most successful Saturday show on Korea TV yet again.
In Seoul, the numbers for The Real Has Come, Episode 45 were similar with 19.7 percent of the audience share, an increase of .30 percent over last week’s Saturday episode.
The 50-episode drama, which stars Baek Jin Hee, Ahn Jae Hyun, Cha Joo Young, and Jung Eui Jae, is also still performing remarkably well outside South Korea, with Viki viewers currently rating it a high 8.9 out of 10.
Over on My Drama List, the show is not currently being rated as high as it was, with a 7.8 out of 10, but almost 11,000 international viewers who use the site are either still watching the drama or have watched episodes of it.
That is a high number of viewers for a drama listed on that site, and shows intense interest in the family melodrama.
The next episode of The Real Has Come will air in South Korea on KBS2 later on tonight, with the episode appearing on Viki and Kocowa for international viewers soon after.
The drama will then air over the next two weekends, with its final episode premiering on September 10th.
