I have to admit, I am so happy to see the new ENA drama Your Honor see a huge ratings increase last night when its second episode aired.

The drama is superb and, as someone who also watched the American version, I am also thrilled to say the Korean drama is even better.

Your Honor, Episode 2, by the way, grabbed 2.83 percent of the nationwide audience share in South Korea last night.

That is a big increase from Episode 1’s rating of 1.73 percent.

Audiences in Seoul helped the K-drama perform even better, as it earned 2.97 percent for its second episode on Tuesday night – a substantial increase from its first episode’s 1.90 percent.

International ratings for Your Honor

Your Honor is currently rated a 7.8 out of 10 on My Drama List.

That rating, however, is a massive increase from the rating after Episode 1 when a group of pro-terrorist trolls decided they would downrate the drama to a 4.2 out of 10 simply because it is based on an original Israeli drama.

Can’t fix stupid, eh?

In other words, expect Your Honor‘s ratings to increase on the site from there.

Meanwhile, on Viki where the Korean drama is streaming, Your Honor is being rated a very high 9.8 out of 10.

A little too high, but more accurate than the MDL rating, I would say.

Your Honor stars Son Hyun Joo, Kim Myung Min, Kim Do Hoon, and Heo Nam Jun.

Its next episode will air next Monday evening on ENA followed by streaming on Viki.
