[HanCinema's News] "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" Tops Good Data Report for Seventh Straight Week

"It's Okay to Not Be Okay" maintained its top position in the Good Data Report this week. With the drama set to end this coming weekend, "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" is well positioned to sweep the Good Data Report for its full run. Four of its actors also appeared in the top ten for performers, with Seo Yea-ji at number one, Kim Soo-hyun at number two, Oh Jung-se at number four, and Jang Young-nam at number seven.

"Once Again" meanwhile had its ninth straight week at number two. Cheon Ho-jin and Jo Mi-ryung, both older than the typical set of actors popular on social media, came in at number eight and number nine for performers. The new drama "Flower of Evil" has started out strong at number three, though, with lead actor Lee Joon-gi and lead actress Moon Chae-won holding third and fifth place for performers. Social media comments have praised the drama's spooky tone.

"Backstreet Rookie" stumbled somewhat into fourth place, with interest in the drama lagging going into its final week. Lead actress Kim You-jung was number six for performers while Ji Chang-wook was number ten. In fifth place, "Secret Forest 2" made its first appearance, though the drama does not start until August 15th. This bodes well for hype in the South Korean drama industry, which has not had a major hit since "The World of the Married" ended in May.
