The high point for the drama was the sixth episode on October 18th with ratings of 3.2%. "Cheer Up" is also already three episodes behind its original schedule. Two episodes were preempted for news coverage of the Itaewon Halloween Disaster, and another one for a baseball game. "Cheer Up" is still expected to run all sixteen of its originally planned episodes.
