-As expected, Queen of Tears.
-For a second, I thought Chicken Nugget was ranked #1 and got really confused.
-It’s fascinating how dramas from different eras made it onto the listㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Extraordinary Attorney Woo ranks higher than I expected.
-Hospital Playlist is an unexpected one.
-Boys Over Flowers is the oldest drama on the list. That's impressive.
-I figured it would be Queen of Tears.
-Did it rank first because it’s a recent drama?
-Goblin isn’t on the list?
-Queen of Tears was such a hit in Japan. I saw Kim Soohyun’s ads everywhere there.
-Queen of Tears seems to be a huge hit in Japan.
-I need to check out the dramas I haven’t seen yetㅎㅎ
-Wow, Queen of Tears is #1. It’s my favorite drama of 2024.
-In Japan, sweet and warm dramas are really popular, that's why Baek Hyunwoo is widely loved there.
-It's surprising how Lovely Runner isn't on the list.
-As expected, Queen of Tears. There really hasn’t been a drama that compares to it this year.
