• Kim So Hyun and Chae Jong Hyeop's Chemistry Struggles? ‘Serendipity's Embrace’ Drops to 2% Ratings

    Is the chemistry between Kim So Hyun and Chae Jong Hyeop not enough to save 'Serendipity's Embrace'? The show's ratings are falling.

    In the third episode of tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Serendipity's Embrace' (directed by Song Hyun Wook and Jung Kwang Sik, written by Park Geu Ro, based on the Naver webtoon ‘Serendipity's Embrace’), Hu Young (played by Cha Jong Hyeop) confessed his true feelings to Hong Joo (played by Kim So Hyun), sparking a love triangle.

    Hu Young rushed to the hospital after hearing about Hong Joo's car accident, giving up his plans to go to the U.S. He took her hand, placed it on his heart, and asked, "Is it nothing now?" revealing his feelings.

    Hong Joo, unaware she was Hu Young's first love, was already confused by working with her ex-boyfriend, Bang Jun Ho (played by Yoon Ji On).

    According to Nielsen Korea on July 30, the third episode of 'Serendipity's Embrace' recorded a rating of 2.679%, the lowest so far, dropping from the previous episode's 3.3%.

    Despite fans loving the chemistry between Kim So Hyun and Cha Jong Hyeop, the ratings are low. This decline is due to repeated clichés and predictable plots, making the show less exciting. Also, the 2024 Paris Olympics events airing at the same time, like archery, judo, and badminton, are drawing viewers away.

    Even with low ratings, the show is creating a buzz. According to Good Data Corporation’s report for the fourth week of July (July 22 to July 28), 'Serendipity's Embrace' ranked second in TV-OTT drama buzz, just behind SBS's 'Good Partner.' Chae Jong Hyeop and Kim So Hyun ranked second and third in the TV-OTT drama cast buzz index.

    The fourth episode, airing on July 30, will feature a kiss scene between Hong Joo and Hu Young and a three-way confrontation with Jun Ho. However, with the last three episodes being predictable, excitement for the next episode is low. We'll see if the love triangle between Hu Young, Hong Joo, and Jun Ho can boost the ratings.
