According to Nielsen Korea, a ratings research institute on the 10th, the last episode of ‘Racquet Boys’, which aired on the 9th, recorded 4.6% of households nationwide. The highest rating at the moment reached 5.5%. The audience rating of 2049, the main target indicator of advertising officials, was 2.9%, ranking first among all programs aired on the same day.

‘Racquet Boys’ is a challenge for sixteen boys and girls who dream of becoming idols in the badminton world, and depicts the growth of these people in a rural area at the end of the earth. It was loved by small screens for its ‘good drama’ that excluded provocative content.

In the final episode, Yoon Hae-gang (Tang Jun-sang) and Na Woo-chan (Choi Hyun-wook) were drawn to win the boys’ championship. Han Se-yoon (Lee Jae-in) became the youngest member of the national team, and Kang Tae-seon (Kang Seung-yoon) also wore the Taegeuk mark on her chest by winning the preliminary round, which came back after 10 years, against Yoon Hae-gang.

As a follow-up, SBS’s new Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Hongcheongi’ was organized. First broadcast on the 30th.
