Will MBC Be Able to Bring Back Their Fame Through Historical Drama?
Can MBC recover the popularity of historical dramas? Starting from last year to this year, MBC drama shows a low rating among the other tv channels. But this May, the bad atmosphere has begun to fade away.
MBC’s newest Wed-Thu drama, ‘Ruler: Master of the Mask’, which was aired on May 10, in just over a week after its broadcast has become a big competition for the other dramas in this slot. Last year, starting from ‘Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo’, ‘Missing Nine’, to ‘Radiant Office’, MBC is failed to achieve their target in audience rating.
After Wed-Thu drama, the new Mon-Tue drama is back to conquer the position. ‘Lookout’ which will start airing on May 22, is a drama that tells about a group people who lost their loved ones due to crime, their life is destroyed and they try to overcome the pain and uphold justice. This is a drama where Lee Si Young will make a comeback after 2 years of hiatus.
First aired on May 15, ‘Return of Bok Dan Ji’ is also targeted to be the best drama. The weekend drama is also the same. The replacement of ‘Father I ‘ll Take Care of You’, ‘Bad Thief, Good Thief’ has started airing on the 13th. Seohyun is featured as the main character in the drama ‘Bad Thief, Good Thief’ and attracts attention. Seohyun plays as Kang So Joo, a cold-blooded investigator who is full of ambition and sense of justice. Seohyun’s unique charm is expected to attract anyone who watches it.
