There is good news coming out of SBS at least for K-drama fans. The network is reportedly going to restart its Mon-Tues timeslot which it has stopped in April 2023 after airing sageuk drama The Secret Romantic Guesthouse. With the success of legal drama Good Partner which aired on the Fri-Sat timeslot, the network is going to invest in more K-dramas again and the first step is securing the airing rights for romance K-drama Our Movie with award winning leads Namgoong Min and Jeon Yeo Bin. Our Movie was initially slated to air on tvN but will now be the first drama to premiere in the restarted SBS Mon-Tues timeslot in early 2025.
Surprising move from TVN to SBS. I hope there isn’t any messiness like with “Jeongnyeon” drama how MBC is now suing the producers for taking the drama to TVN.
I am looking forward to the drama so much but I wish they had kept it in the Fri-Sat slot. Fri-Sat slot gets higher ratings because it’s a weekend slot. A Mon-Tues slot drama is limited in its ratings. Not even Good Partner would have had such high ratings if it had aired in that slot
Sometimes it working. Good bad mother aired on Wednesday-Thursday, Marry my husband on Mon-Tues, and they got decent ratings. They aired on cable channels, SBS as a channel have more opportunities for ratings, so who knows.
I’m glad that it seems they made accent on quality of dramas. Maybe more good dramas will air like that.
That’s true too. I just looked at previous dramas and the Mon-Tues slot has had some high rating dramas over the last few years such as VIP, Stil 17, Dr Romantic 2, Business Proposal and some acclaimed ones too. I think it will be tough for this drama though as they will be re-establishing the slot after a nearly two year hiatus so people no longer have the airing slot in their evening TV routine but fingers and toes crossed it will do well as I love both the leads.
