The production team behind the jTBC drama Behind Your Touch also did one of my all time favorite K-dramas The Light in Your Eyes, and in fact female lead Han Ji Min is reuniting as the deal for both dramas. I guess what I am trying to say is that despite how weird and off putting the premise of Behind Your Touch came across it’s probably not wildly impossible this drama could be good. And good it is, from all the reviews and also the ratings this is the August hit that people thought The Uncanny Counter 2 would be. This past Sunday’s episode 4 came in at 7% ratings, another noticeable jump from the previous 5% range and starting to really ratchet up the momentum. Congrats to the cast and crew with still plenty of run time left to loop in more viewers and see how high the ratings could go.
