The popular MBC drama 'My Dearest', is considering an extension due to the high viewership. This means fans will get to indulge in the captivating love story for a while longer.
MBC shared, “As the drama boasts a high popularity, we are positive about discussing an extension and adjusting our programming. This adjustment may slightly delay our previously arranged end date”.
In the spirit of improvement, MBC promised to work relentlessly to elevate the level of perfection in the drama. The drama, featuring the notable love tale of Lee Jang Hyun (portrayed by Nam Goong Min) and Yoo Gil Chae (played by Ahn Eun Jin), acclaimed for its heartbreaking depiction of destiny, has held the number one spot in overall program discussions for three consecutive weeks since its second part started airing. This has resulted in 'My Dearest' being considered the most popular drama in the second half of the year, with leads Nam Goong Min and Ahn Eun Jin riding the high wave of popularity, securing top spots in trending topics.
MBC has further shed light on the rationale behind considering the extension of 'My Dearest.' They believe that the story, meticulously prepared and produced, needs appropriate time to fully unfold, keeping the audience keenly engaged. Particular attention has been given to the deepening love story, and the subplot of the returning prisoners, both of which have gained substantial empathy among viewers. The opinions of fans have also been a factor in this consideration.
