Finales don’t always land with a ratings spike, but “Spooky in Love” made sure its last episode counted. On August 23, both it and KBS 2TV’s “Love on the Menu” posted the best numbers of their entire runs, closing out Sunday night as the two biggest shows on Korean television.

Spooky In Love: The Numbers

Drama	Rating	Milestone
Spooky in Love (Finale)	7.9%	Highest rating of its run; top cable show of the night
Love on the Menu	16.4%	Highest rating of its run; most-watched show of the day

Spooky In Love’s Strong Send-Off

tvN’s “Spooky in Love,” a remake of the 2011 film, closed its run with a nationwide average of 7.9% — its best performance of the entire series and enough to make it the most-watched cable program of any kind that Sunday. Going out on a series-high rating is a strong signal that the finale delivered exactly what longtime viewers were hoping for.

Love On The Menu’s New Personal Best

KBS 2TV’s “Love on the Menu” didn’t just top its own record — it topped the entire night. The romance drama’s latest episode climbed to a nationwide average of 16.4%, making it the single most-watched program on Korean television that Sunday, across every genre and network.

Why Both Milestones Matter

Seeing a finale and a mid-run episode both hit all-time highs on the same night says a lot about where audience attention is right now — one drama earning its biggest audience precisely when it needed to stick the landing, and another proving its momentum is still building rather than fading. For both casts and crews, it’s a strong close to a big Sunday.
