Friday nights in South Korea just got a whole lot more competitive — and Perfect Crown is winning them decisively. The MBC romance drama starring two of K-entertainment’s most beloved names is not just holding steady; it’s climbing, and the latest numbers prove it.
Perfect Crown Ratings: The Numbers
On April 24, MBC’s Perfect Crown achieved its highest ratings to date for a Friday episode, scoring an average nationwide rating of 10.6 percent according to Nielsen Korea — making it the most-watched program of any kind that aired on Friday.
That’s not a small feat. Fridays are traditionally the drama’s lower-rating day, which makes crossing the 10% mark even more impressive.
| Metric | Rating |
|---|---|
| Nationwide Average (Friday, Apr 24) | 10.6% — Series High |
| Key Demo: Ages 20–54 (Friday) | 4.3% |
| SBS Phantom Lawyer (Same Night) | 6.5% |
Dominating the Key Demographic Too
It wasn’t just the general audience tuning in. Perfect Crown also remained the most-watched show of Friday among the key demographic of viewers aged 20 to 54, earning an average rating of 4.3 percent in that segment.
Advertisers and broadcasters alike pay very close attention to the 20–54 bracket, so holding that crown is a huge commercial win for the show and MBC.
What About the Competition?
SBS’s Phantom Lawyer rose to an average nationwide rating of 6.5 percent as it kicked off the final two weeks of its run — a respectable number, but still well behind Perfect Crown‘s commanding lead. With Phantom Lawyer entering its endgame, the Friday primetime battlefield is essentially IU and Byeon Woo Seok’s to lose right now.

Why Perfect Crown’s Rise Feels So Special
There’s something uniquely satisfying about watching a drama grow with each passing week rather than peak early and fade. Perfect Crown is doing exactly that — building momentum episode by episode, earning new viewers while keeping its existing fanbase locked in.
IU, already one of South Korea’s most beloved multihyphenates, and Byeon Woo Seok, who skyrocketed to global fame with Lovely Runner, are delivering exactly the on-screen chemistry audiences came for. As Wikipedia notes on Korean television ratings, crossing the 10% threshold on a national network is considered a strong benchmark for primetime success — one Perfect Crown has now firmly cleared.
