cal strength.Even the main dancer, Kim Jong-in, who is said to be able to learn a dance just by looking at it a few times, has been exhausted these days. Now there he lies motionless on the ground.Wha...aired its seventh and eighth episodes on October 30th and 31st respectively. As the plot unfolded, this Kim Eun-sook masterpiece, bolstered by Park Seo-joon's insights and numerous script revisions, finally began to shine with its own unique brilliance. >>

Episode 7's ratings were 16.9%, and Episode 8 was 17.5%.

Every episode has been steadily improving, with the exception of one early episode that saw a dip. The viewership curve is very strong and continuously climbing upwards.

But yesterday, November 7th, the tenth episode aired and its viewership officially rose to 20%, which made everyone on the production team cheer loudly with joy, a scene of great celebration.

Since its premiere on October 9th, "Percentage Ten" has gone through a month of hardship and effort, and finally, the viewership rate has reached 20%.

This is a viewership number that only a major hit TV drama can achieve, and "The Heirs" has only aired 20 episodes out of the total.

Those who used to criticize and belittle this TV show online have also gradually changed their views. Setting aside the melodramatic plot of the first few episodes, the recent episodes are truly exciting, full of twists and turns. The main actors, whose characters initially seemed clichéd, have now each revealed their unique charm.

Especially in the TV drama, the intricate power struggles between chaebols, the indifference of emotions, and the chilling sense of class are vividly portrayed. These elements allowed "The Heirs" to transcend the boundaries of a typical romantic idol drama, leaving countless viewers feeling both brutal and exhilarated.

Recently, with the viewership ratings steadily climbing, the attention surrounding "The Heirs" has also grown significantly. Now, SBS doesn't need to actively invest in promotional resources anymore, as there are an increasing number of media outlets and magazines vying for interviews every day.

Based on the current viewership trend and the growing number of positive reviews and reversals appearing online, "The Heirs" has become the hottest topic in the Korean entertainment industry this month.

The atmosphere on the set, which had been stiff for a month, also improved a lot. It was no longer as tense and heavy as it was during the first two weeks after its premiere. The ease and smiles that were everywhere during filming in LA returned to the set.

Of course, after the previous trough, things have just improved in terms of atmosphere. Everyone was still very careful during filming.

"Brilliant!"

Facing the camera, Jung Seo-yeon's portrayal of Lee Baona is met with an excited smile. Her mouth is wide open, revealing her slightly white teeth as she covers her bag while quickly running forward in a playful manner.

As each character began to shine, Jung So-min's portrayal of Lee Boa Na received much love from the audience.

A great appearance and figure are a prerequisite, but the character design is also excellent. The spoiled and willful personality, yet soft-hearted and kind nature of the chaebol heiress, as portrayed by Jung So Min, is very cute and makes her impossible to dislike.

And she is infatuated with her boyfriend, Yoon Chan-yeong. They are very sweet together, and she calls him "Chan-yeong ah," which has become a classic phrase because of her tone of voice and smile. Recently, it has become one of the hottest topics of discussion among netizens.

"CUT!"

That's all for now. Let's grab some lunch, everyone seems hungry. We can continue this afternoon.

Ginger Shin-Hyo shouted into the megaphone, and both staff members and actors let out a sigh of relief. The commotion gradually subsided as everyone started chatting and taking a break to prepare for lunch.

"Hyeri's acting is really great, she portrays it very naturally, sometimes I can't even keep up."

After the director yelled "Cut", Kang Min-heok, who is from the boy band BULE and acted opposite Jung So-jung, relaxed. Looking at Jung So-jung, he had a praising and kind smile on his face, and warmly started a conversation: “I feel like I've been completely outshined by you. Would you be willing to teach me how to be as good as you sometime…”.

"See you later, Min-Heok. Let's hang out sometime."

Jung Soo-jung politely smiled in response, then lightly bowed and left with a "I'll go eat first" before turning to leave. After taking a few steps, she ran into her assistant who caught up to her, putting a thick coat on her and handing her a bottle of water. She opened the cap and took two sips.

She sipped her drink while scanning the room with piercing eyes. When she spotted Chi Jingyuan sitting in an armchair playing on his phone not far away, she narrowed her eyes and strode over.

Her assistant sighed after seeing this and followed her.

After Zheng Xiu Jing left, faint voices of薑敏赫 and her manager could be heard from behind:

"How are you hitting on people again Didn't I tell you last time"

"No, bro. It was just casual chat. I'm acting as her boyfriend in the play, we have so many scenes together, it's normal…"

"Ai Xi, don't think I can't see what you're thinking. It's fine when you're outside, but keep it to yourself on set."

"Why..."

One scolded, the other argued. As their figures receded, their voices gradually faded into indistinct murmurs.

…………

"Jǐngyuán ah!"

Ji Jingyuan, who was reading news on his phone, was interrupted by the melodramatic call. He looked up to see Jung So-jung running over with a glass of water, taking three steps as two, and almost reaching her destination, she took a small jump and landed in front of Ji Jingyuan, smiling brightly at him and saying:

Nearby actors, assistants, and crew members all subtly glanced this way.

Whenever Jung Soo-jung was acting, she kept calling out "Chan-yeong ah," but once the scene ended, she immediately switched to calling him "Jing-yuan ah." This made everyone who was watching feel a bit strange, while also marveling at Jung Soo-jung's acting skills as an idol actor. Her transformation was so natural and seamless, without any awkwardness.

As the atmosphere on set improved, the actors' interactions during breaks became more frequent. Recently, Jung So-jung has been making a point of spending her downtime near Ji Chang-wook. Whether it's eating together or simply chatting, she seems to always be around him. Even when they're just relaxing, playing games on their phones or just staring off into space, she chooses to sit nearby.

The assistant said it several times, reminding her to pay attention, but she was too lazy to listen. After persuasion failed, the assistant just let it go.

She actually brought this matter to the company's attention, but when the manager heard that it was Ji Jingyuan, he pondered for a moment and left without saying anything.

The agent doesn't care, and her assistant naturally wouldn't bother with this.

Jung So Min's friendly and good feelings are very obvious, but the crew members are used to it. They have been working in the industry for too long, they have seen and heard everything, there are too many cases where male and female actors develop feelings for each other on set.

The day before yesterday, Kim Woo Bin's girlfriend avoided the media and came to the set with a lot of things. As long as the ratings increase and it doesn't affect filming, everyone is mostly indifferent and turns a blind eye.

After taking a quick glance, they looked away.

Chi Jingyuan also felt a bit awkward about being called "Jingyuan ah". As someone who always watched Zheng Xiujing film, he heard that tone of address and always felt like the other person was still acting.

Although he was a little reluctant, seeing the other person's happy face made him too lazy to spoil the mood. He nodded toward Jung Soo-jung.
