"The Sound of Magic" was in fourth place with 16.93 million hours, with the Ji Chang-wook led musical drama now in its second week on the streaming platform. "Business Proposal" and "The Sound of Magic" would have been fifth and eighth place overall had English and non-English television been merged into the same list. Back on the Non-English list, "Our Blues" was sixth place and "Tomorrow" was ninth place as both dramas wind down to their final episodes.
