Cha Eun Woo’s Wonderful World restores all-time ratings record as viewers brace for the gripping series finale

The penultimate episode fleshed out a major mystery plot twist that has been under wraps until now. Addressing the series finale, the South Korean network MBC announced, “Accordingly, after much deliberation, we decided to extend the running time in order to properly convey the characters’ stories.”

The praiseworthy series has particularly driven a strong case for Eunwoo’s acting career, which, until now, was relegated to a typecast as a high school character. Emerging out of the pigeonholed character design, the K-pop idol/actor has favouringly climbed the monthly actor brand reputation rankings chart, standing proudly at the second rank, trailing behind only Kim Soo Hyun.

Not only did these 11.4% ratings restore the series’ personal record, but they also shot Wonderful World to the top as the most-watched Friday broadcast.
