According to Netflix’s official site, Tudum, on the 30th, “Scandal” recorded 2.8 million views (viewing time divided by the show’s total running time) in its second week of release, ranking third among global non-English shows.

“Scandal” is a series that tells the story of “Lady Jo”—a woman with exceptional talent who feels confined by her role as a woman in the Joseon Dynasty—and “Jo Won,” the Joseon Dynasty’s greatest womanizer, as they engage in a daring and dangerous love wager, as well as the story of “Hee-yeon,” a woman entangled in that wager. The series garnered significant attention thanks to its star-studded cast, including Son Ye-jin, Ji Chang-wook, and Nana.
