No Tail to Tell — A Strong Send-Off for Kim Hye Yoon’s Fantasy Romance
There’s something poetically satisfying about a drama saving its best ratings for the end. SBS’s fantasy romance drama No Tail to Tell, which has just one episode left in its run, enjoyed an increase in viewership ahead of its series finale, scoring an average nationwide rating of 3.7 percent for its penultimate episode.
For fans of Kim Hye Yoon — who captivated audiences in Lovely Runner — this upward ratings curve in the final stretch is a lovely way for the show to close its chapter. A drama that builds rather than fades is always a sign that the story landed the way it was supposed to. The finale episode is now the most anticipated it has ever been, and that’s exactly where any series wants to be heading into its final bow.
In Your Radiant Season — Chae Jong Hyeop’s New Drama Is Already the One to Beat
Meanwhile, the new kid on the block isn’t wasting any time. MBC’s In Your Radiant Season took first place in its time slot across all channels with its third episode, earning an average nationwide rating of 4.3 percent.
Starring Chae Jong Hyeop — who previously charmed viewers in Serendipity’s Embrace — this drama has locked in the top position with remarkable efficiency. Third episode and already No. 1 across all channels is the kind of early performance that signals genuine audience appetite, not just a debut bump.
