Okay, real talk. You ever start watching a new K-drama just to “see what the hype is about,” and next thing you know, it’s 2 a.m., your snacks are gone, and you’re emotionally ruined? Yeah… same.
Well, if you haven’t already jumped on the train, let me fill you in, Our Unwritten Seoul and Good Boy just hit their highest ratings ever, and honestly? It’s totally deserved.
Our Unwritten Seoul Is the Drama We Didn’t Know We Needed
This one snuck up on us. Like, you think it’s going to be your typical emotional story, and then, bam! Twin sisters, identity swaps, and Park Bo Young giving the performance of her life.
On June 1st, Episode 4 scored a 5.9% nationwide rating, which is huge in the world of kdrama ratings. It even beat out every other cable show in its time slot. Yes, queen!
The wild part? It started strong at 3.6%, and has just been climbing since. If ratings were stocks, this one’s basically the K-drama version of Bitcoin in 2017.
Also, plot twist, it’s already topping Netflix Korea’s Top 10, and it’s only four episodes in. So, you’re not just watching a show, you’re witnessing greatness in real-time.
Park Bo Young Said, “Hold My Script”
Can we take a moment for Park Bo Young? She’s not just playing two roles as twin sisters. Nope. She’s playing four versions of them. You read that right.
It’s giving Parent Trap meets Secret Garden with extra K-drama seasoning. And she’s nailing every switch, every emotion, every silent stare that says, “I know something you don’t.”
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and at one point, you’ll probably whisper, “She deserves an award for this.” (Because she does.)
Meanwhile, Good Boy Is Over There Breaking Necks and Ratings
Not to be outdone, Good Boy is out here throwing punches, literally. If you’re into action-packed, comic-style chaos with a sprinkle of bromance, this one’s your jam.
Episode 2 just hit a 5.3% rating, with a peak of 7.3% in real-time viewership. That’s K-drama gold. And the first episode? Already came in hot at 4.8%.
If you’re wondering where to watch good boy kdrama , it’s airing on JTBC, and streaming on places like Viki and Netflix depending on your region. Just… check. Trust me, your weekend plans need this.
Park Bo Gum Is the Action Hero You Didn’t Know You Needed
He kicks. He punches. He smirks. And somehow, even when he’s sweaty from fighting bad guys, he still looks like a skincare commercial.
Pair him with Heo Sung Tae, and you’ve got a duo that has K-drama fans screaming in their living rooms (yes, I am “fans”). People are calling it a “dopamine overdose,” and I fully agree. It’s loud, it’s messy, it’s fun.
So… Which One Are You Watching First?
Whether you’re in the mood for dramatic tears (Our Unwritten Seoul) or flying kicks and witty banter (Good Boy), both shows are killing it right now.
Honestly, it’s the best kind of problem, too many good dramas, not enough snacks.
So grab your blanket, cancel your plans (you weren’t going out anyway), and hit play.
These shows are peaking in the kdrama ratings, and you do not want to be left behind when the spoilers start rolling in.
P.S. Which one are you more obsessed with?
