As expected, Reborn Rich smashes the ceiling as it finishes its run at an all-time high, proving that there really is a magnificently large audience out there — it’s just a matter of attracting them, whether with pretty faces, high drama, or FOMO.

Reborn rich did well with the ratings but the important question is did everyone like the ending? If not that’s a lot of negative noise on social media.
I continue to be disappointed with my shows ratings but accept that Unlock the boss and Forbidden Marriage are clearly niche and I am happy sharing the joy within my exclusive appreciators club.

As is tradition with all of JTBC's highest-rated dramas, Knetz hated Reborn Rich's ending.

TV Chosun has another hit on their hands with Red Balloon.

Happy ending is only for people who have the power, not the viewer 🙃😁

A story like Reborn Rich is nigh impossible to get a satisfied ending. The webtoon original apparently has a happy ever after but that doesn’t sound right by me as it negates totally the original root of the main character. Many fans said they are watching DJ, not HW - but then DJ won’t be the DJ we know if without HW’s hindsight. He’s the embodiment of two persons.

So, 24 hours after seeing the ending with the finale sunk in and digested, I’d say the drama is heading the right direction but it’s poor execution. The plots and twists in Ep 16 should have started earlier to show HW’s changes and how he benefited from the learning as DJ such that this twin-fate is not a one way street.

It would have been such a magnificent drama if with a better thrashed out ending.

Agree with this. The ending was bad, not because it should have ended happily but because the ending felt so disconnected to the bulk of the story. I was actually worried that they'd give a happy ending for DJ, which would have been both nonsensical and unsatisfying. But the ending it had was still nonsensical and unsatisfying in parts so...

The show missed an opportunity--or many opportunities, actually--to bring HW into the main story in a way that would have made sense of and salvaged that ending.

I'm in the opinion happy with the ending. They answer the crucial mistery and resolved them. It's just if they are frequently show about HW as HW more, it will be a better drama imo. HW as DJ is not as dynamic when he is as HW him self. Like u stated, I will forget this drama if they end HW in episode 1 unresolved and DJ success being a chairman.

That was a substantial decline from the first to the second episode of INTEREST OF LOVE. We have not started it yet and I am wondering if my wife and I want to. We are way behind on so many other dramas.

Somehow the weekender THREE BOLD SIBLINGS continues to stumble. I think that it was a major misstep to have Somin suddenly decide that she cannot be with Mooyoung simply because his daughter is dating her Ex. The writer has created in Somin an admittedly impulsive but strong, talented and feisty UnCandy character- and then had her do something that is out of character. This is a mistake and it needs to be corrected fast. As for the rest of the stories- they seem to somehow not always fit together as well as they should, and I wonder if it may simply be a general lack of cast chemistry that the pieces somehow do not quite fit together.

After watching two episodes of INTEREST OF LOVE I might recommend holding off. Its not that the drama doesn't have interest, its just the love part that seems to be lacking, especially in that toxic office environment.

Thank you for that. Sometimes it makes sense to hold off.

the work environment seems to be turning everyone off - myself included, but i'm hoping there will be retribution on the part of the women workers. the harassment culture in that workplace is atrocious!!!

i'm keeping my fingers crossed that they are showing all that horrid behavior for some "good" reason...

My money is on Red Balloon reaching double digit rating by the time it airs its 12th episode 🤣. Anyone wants to bet?
