Love, Take Two Ep 1 grabs solid ratings while international viewers view it positively

Michelle Topham August 5, 2025

Korean drama Love, Take Two, Episode 1 premiered on tvN last night to solid ratings.

According to Nielsen Korea, the first episode of the new tvN Monday-Tuesday drama grabbed 3.53 percent of the nationwide viewership.

The Yum Jung Ah and Choi Yoon Ji-led drama performed even better with viewers in Seoul, where it garnered 3.99 percent of the audience share.

With Episode 2 airing tonight, and Love, Take Two not having much drama opposition on other channels, chances are we may just see its ratings rise tonight.

Especially as it’s first episode was solid in both its writing and performances.

We’ll keep you posted.

Love, Take Two ratings from international viewers

While a rating isn’t live on the site yet, the romantic comedy is currently being reviewed well by international viewers on My Drama List, with overwhelmingly positive comments.

They range from:

Aww I was hesitating to watch this one because of the FL, she’s such an evil in the “The Defects” drama. But thankfully, I still watched it and it is really good. I can say that the FL such a good actress , a different persona here. I love the setting on this, the beautiful countryside and happy villagers.

And wow the ML Bo Hyeon is very cute. lt’s my first time I watch him in a drama.

to positive comments about two of the cast:

FL plays a good strong role and her best friend is amazing actress too. This is a good Monday drama.

Meanwhile, the K-drama is being rated 9.6 out of 10 by just 11 viewers on Viki, where the drama is streaming.

Considering it appears likely Viki manipulates their ratings, as almost all their dramas are rated over a 9 out of 10, you can take that rating with the grain of salt it likely deserves.

Love, Take Two stars Yum Jung Ah, Park Hae Joon, Choi Yoon Ji, and Kim Min Kyu.

It airs every Monday and Tuesday on tvN, with the 12-episode drama scheduled to run through September 9th.

Update: Love, Take Two, Episode 6 grabs the Korean drama’s highest ratings yet
