While MBC’s Undercover High School‘s ratings did not rise to where they should have done when it was airing in South Korea, and the superb K-drama ended on disappointing lower ratings than expected, that hasn’t stopped it being the #1 drama on the Good Data Corporation Most Buzzworthy Drama list yet again.
And, not only yet again this week, but also for the 6th straight week in a row!
Yep, Undercover High School is still #1 on the Most Buzzworthy Drama list this week. A place it first climbed to right after its first episode aired on February 21st. And then never fell off from.
Congratulations, eh?
According to Good Data Corporation, (look at the TV and then Drama section), Undercover High School is still sitting in the #1 spot, ahead of Buried Hearts at #2, My Dearest Nemesis at #3, The Art of Negotiation at #4, and The Potato Lab at #5.
The Top 10 overall looks like this, with a couple you probably expect to be on the list, and one or two you maybe don’t:
- Undercover High School
- Buried Hearts
- My Dearest Nemesis
- The Art of Negotiation
- The Potato Lab
- For Eagle Brothers
- Cinderella Game
- The Divorce Insurance
- Villains Everywhere
- Mother and Mom
Undercover High School, by the way, was directed by Choi Jung In (Knight Flower), and stars the excellent main cast of Seo Kang Joon, Jin Ki Joo, and Kim Shin Rok.
The Most Buzzworthy Actors list is also out and, along with several other well-deserving When Life Gives You Tangerines actors in the Top 10, that K-drama’s star IU is happily sitting at #1.
