Chapter 10 Shocking
"Is it really fake, are the ratings accurate?" The director's expression suddenly calmed down, and he asked this sentence very seriously.
This sentence stunned everyone, could it be that the ratings are very low?
"Okay, thank you, thank you" After a while, the director hung up the phone. At this time, everyone is looking at the director.
"Guys, the ratings for the first episode are out" the director's expression became more and more serious.
"Director Nim, is there a big difference between the ratings and the expectations in my heart?" asked Yunchan with some curiosity. The ratings of this TV series, the director also gave his inner expectations, 15% of the ratings.
The ratings of the first episode of the TV series were 15%, which is actually very good. If the first episode has 15%, then until the last episode, it may exceed 35%, so the ratings of the TV series are enough to rank among the most popular TV dramas in Korean history.
Seeing the director's expression, everyone thinks that the ratings of the first episode may not even be 10%. But the 10% rating is actually very high. But this TV series has Yoon-chan and Song Hye Kyo, and if the ratings are only about 10%, it should only be considered average.
"yes, there's a big gap," the director replied mechanically, "The ratings of the first episode were... 26.3%!”
"What?!" everyone was momentarily dumbfounded.
"Is 26.3% real?" Yunchan asked in shock. The first episode had a rating of 26.3%?That's too exaggerated, isn't it?The first episode was so high, all the way to the last episode... I wonder what it will be...
Thinking of an approximate number in his heart, Yun Chan is a spirit, and he really doesn't dare to think about it.
"Crazy, crazy, crazy" The director looked at everyone with a confused face: "Why did the first episode have such high ratings?"
"Director Nim, isn't this a good thing?" the assistant director hurriedly said: "The first episode has such high ratings, and the last episode may exceed 40% of the ratings!"
"Impossible" The director frowned slightly: "There are too few TV series with 40 ratings in our country, if it can really rush to 40%... But I'm worried about one thing right now."
"What's the problem?" the crowd wondered.
"The novel theme, as well as the addition of Song Hye Kyo xi and Yoon Chan xi, it is very normal for many people to watch it, although the ratings of the first episode greatly exceeded my expectations, but a TV series with such a theme can be said to be the first time, I am afraid that the audience will not like such a theme after the plot unfolds, and the ratings may be reversed"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Indeed, in the history of Korean TV dramas, there are many, many such things. The ratings were very high at the beginning, but after the plot unfolded, the contrast between the plot and the tone of the attention was too great, and it gradually became unwatched. It's not that there are no such TV series, there are!
When everyone was silent, Yunchan was not worried at all. Because Yunchan knows that this TV series will be successful, judging from the data in the system, the ratings of the first episode in the system are 14.3%, and the ratings of the second episode are 15.5%.
In the second week, the third episode reached 23.4% viewership, and the fourth episode had a 24.4% rating. Until the ninth episode, which was broadcast in the fifth week, the ratings exceeded 30% and reached 30.4%. The ratings of the last episode reached 38.8%, and the replay rating of the last episode reached 41.6%. The average rating was 28.58%.
But this time, it is really surprising that the starting ratings of this TV series are so high. It's much taller than the original!
While everyone was discussing the ratings, the audience reminisced about the afterglow of the first episode and waited for the second episode to air.
There are some fans who have already noticed that the OST that appeared in the first episode!
And KBS TV, when the first episode was broadcast, also announced the OST that appeared in the first episode - "Alays" on the music website
At the time of the commercial, fans began to look for this song on the Internet, and after finding it, everyone was shocked.

The number of downloads of this song rose instantly. For a while, during the advertising time, it has already landed in the ninth place in the hot search of songs!
"Wow, this song is very good, IU your voice is also very suitable for this song" Yun Chan's house, because he was curious about the original version of OST in it, IU played it with his mobile phone, and after listening to it, everyone praised it.
"No, it's Yunchan Oba's good writing," IU said with some embarrassment.
"Hey... Yoonchan Oba, it's a monster, isn't it?" Sunny sighed, "Every time I write a song, it's so good"
"Ahh
"In terms of composition, Yunchan Oba is indeed very powerful, really a monster-level person" Yuna said very seriously.
"Mr. Lee so-man is also very satisfied with Yoon-chan Oba's composing ability, the people of the company, haha" Yuri seemed to remember something interesting and laughed out loud.
"Hmph," Taeyeon also snorted with some pride.

The ratings have also been announced for a long time, and when each episode is broadcast, the ratings will be announced on the KBS TV website in about ten minutes. The audience can see it, too.
The TV series began to be broadcast on January 25th, and until now, it has been the first place in the Internet topic rankings, and Yoon-chan and Song Hye Kyo have also firmly occupied the first and second positions in character search during this time. It has become the most successful case of TV dramas in the past decade!
The dramas that caused shocks in South Korea have indeed caused shocks in Asia overseas. During this period of time, the TV series that everyone discussed was undoubtedly "Descendants of the Sun"! From teenagers to people in their thirties and forties, everyone was watching this TV series.
At the same time, the media have praised the evaluation of this TV series.
"The story and characters of the show are not lacking in novelty. The reason from "sweet" to "abuse" is that the feelings of the military family and the country are different from the doctor's concept of putting life first, and the collision of this kind of outlook on life and values between couples is reasonable, breaking through the Mary Sue-style setting, and allowing the audience to see a more real and resonant love story. ”
"I used to complain that Korean TV dramas were like a grinding aunt, and if I could use one episode to make it clear, I would use ten episodes, so the problem of procrastination was completely changed in the show. In the first two episodes, Yoon Yoon-chan and Song Hye Kyo have experienced their first encounter, parting, and reunion, which was described by the Korean media as broadband-level speed, and the follow-up plot hooked the audience like a hook. ”
"The casting, painting style and story of the play are perfectly in line with the aesthetic and romantic attributes of idol dramas, coupled with successful marketing, which greatly hit the hearts of the audience. Judging from the story, the show also gave the audience a great surprise, there are no clichés such as car accidents, blood entanglements, amnesia, etc., and the hero and heroine are not Mary Sue, silly Bai Tian and domineering presidents, and they have changed the common problem of slow pace of Korean dramas, and they have become clear and not procrastinating. ”
"The drama brings a different sense of rhythm from the previous dragged Korean dramas. The hero and heroine fall in love at first sight in the first episode, break up in the second episode, and meet again in Greece in the third episode. Not only that, Korean screenwriters who used to love love stories between urban men and women integrated military, medical and other elements into the play, and a lot of aerial photography was also used in the shooting, and there were many sets of pictures such as helicopters and military weapons in the play. In terms of emotional portrayal, screenwriter Kim Eun-sook also put a lot of effort into it. changed the procrastination of Korean dramas, and sparks sparked frequently between the female doctor Kang Muyan played by Song Hye Kyo and the male non-commissioned officer Yoo Si-jin played by Yoon Yoon-chan. From the encounter between the two people, the play is the equality and initiative of cutting through the chaos quickly. There is no so-called desire to indulge in the emotions of the characters, they all directly express their hearts. ”
At this time, Song Hye Kyo and Yun Chan, because of this TV series, have reached the highest popularity since their debut.
March 9th, two o'clock in the morning. Gimpo Airport, at this point in time, more than 3,000 people came!
Fans got the news that the crew of "Descendants of the Sun" has ended filming in Greece. Returning home to shoot the last shot.
And the time when the plane arrived in South Korea was half past two in the morning!
More than 3,000 fans, most of whom are fans of TV series. The hottest TV drama in Korea today, the hottest TV drama in the past decade! The best-selling TV series overseas in history! "Descendants of the Sun" has become one of the three major Korean TV dramas that have caused a lot of talk in Asia!
Fans surrounded the airport inside and out, chatting with each other in low voices, but it was also the sound of more than 3,000 people chatting! It was quiet, but it was a bit noisy.
In addition to the fans, there were also a lot of journalists. Close to a hundred journalists. All of them stood in the front row. Journalists are in high spirits and ready to greet those who will work miracles.
At 2:29 a.m., a plane descended from the sky and slowly landed on the runway. The fans in the airport instantly fell silent.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Everyone has worked hard during this time" Director Li Yingfu looked at Yuncan and others and said with a smile: "Everyone take a good rest after going back, and shoot the last shot at noon tomorrow, and when the time comes, this TV series will really end"
"You're the one who worked hard, Director," Yunchan said with a smile.
"No, no, no" The director immediately shook his head: "Hey, if it weren't for Yun Chanxi and you actors, how could this TV series have such high ratings, thank you so much" Speaking of this, some tears gradually appeared in the director's eyes.
It is a great honor for this TV series to have such results, whether it is the actors or the team behind the scenes, especially for the director, few people can do it with such a TV series. It is also a great honor for the director.
A few minutes later, everyone picked up their luggage and prepared to leave the airport.
Coming out of the passage, everyone was blindfolded.
"Ah!!h
"Yoonchan Oba!!"
"Song Hye Jo Oni !!"
"Oba, sa wave!"
"Ernie!"
The fans, who were very quiet, shouted instantly when they saw their idols.
The security guards arranged by the airport immediately stepped forward to protect the artists.
Even Yoon-chan and Song Hye Kyo have never seen such a level of pick-up. The heart is full of shock. And it's half past two in the morning!
"Hello" in addition to being shocked, he was moved, he didn't expect there to be so many people, of course, Yunchan himself is also very clear in his heart, and the credit of the TV series "Descendants of the Sun" is undoubtedly the greatest. But Yunchan never imagined that this time he would return to China on such a large scale.
Fortunately, the fans only came to the airport to meet their idols, and they didn't come forward to ask for autographs or anything. I just take pictures from a distance and give support to my favorite idols.
Although the current reporters want to interview, there is no way, the directors have come out to say, the actors are very tired and need to rest. Such an explanation immediately made the reporters close their mouths of wanting to ask questions.
