Cabbage Your Life Is Wrapping Up on KBS 2TV — But Its Ratings Tell a Tough Story

Not every K-drama gets a triumphant farewell, and Cabbage Your Life seems headed for a quiet goodbye. With just one episode left, the numbers have hit a new low — and fans are left wondering what went wrong.

Cabbage Your Life Ratings Drop: What Happened?

On June 4, 2026, Cabbage Your Life aired its penultimate episode and recorded its lowest ratings yet — an average nationwide rating of just 1.4 percent, according to Nielsen Korea. For a KBS 2TV primetime slot, that’s a tough pill to swallow heading into a series finale.

The series finale is set to air on June 11 at 10 p.m. KST, giving the show one last chance to leave a lasting impression on its remaining audience.

Why Do Some K-Dramas Struggle With Ratings?

It’s a question the Korean broadcasting industry grapples with constantly. Television ratings are influenced by a cocktail of factors — competing timeslots, streaming platform preferences among younger viewers, promotional reach, and simply whether a story resonates emotionally with audiences at the right time.

In recent years, even well-made Korean dramas have seen traditional broadcast ratings dip as viewership migrates to OTT platforms. That context matters when reading a number like 1.4 percent — it’s low by linear TV standards, but the full picture of a drama’s reach is often bigger than the overnight ratings suggest.

Still, heading into a finale at a series low is never the ideal narrative.
