The TVing original 『Dear X" (Choi Jae-won's Ban Ji-woon script, directed by Lee Eung-bok and Park So-hyun) released the 7-8th episode on the 20th and is receiving a hot response. On this day, Baek A-jin (Kim Yoo-jung) started a relationship with Heo In-gang (Hwang In-yeop), and faced the happiest and most unfortunate moments of her life, and a critical crisis came in her acting career.
Viewers fell in love with the shocking and unexpected development. According to TVing, it continued to be popular for three consecutive weeks, ranking No. 1 in new subscription contributions on weekends. Not only in Korea, but also abroad, it has been popular. According to the release of the global OTT ranking aggregation site FlixPatrol on the 23rd, Viki in the U.S. topped the list for three consecutive weeks and topped Disney+ in Japan. In addition, the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region once again proved the potential of K-content by ranking second in the top spot through StarzPlay. In addition, HBO Max is considered one of the highest performing titles among Asian works in 17 countries and regions in the Asia-Pacific, including Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.
Meanwhile, in the 7-8th episode of 'Dear X' released on the 20th, Baek A-jin continued her open relationship with Heo In-gang for about a year. In the anxious wait of Yoon Joon-seo (Kim Young-dae) and Kim Jae-oh (Kim Do-hoon), Baek Ah-jin seemed to be genuinely falling in love with a false relationship. Meanwhile, Heo In-gang's maternal grandmother Hong Kyung-sook (Park Seung-tae) found her lost notebook at Baek A-jin's house and felt disappointed and betrayed by the fact that he deliberately approached his maternal grandchild.
And that night, the news of Hong Kyung-sook's sudden death came. Heo In-gang was sad and lost due to the death of his maternal grandmother, and to make matters worse, Baek Ah-jin, who thought about getting married, received a one-sided separation notice and met a tragic end. With this, the CEO of Longstar Entertainment Seo Mi-ri (Kim Ji-young) turned from Baek A-jin's side to the enemy, giving him an idea of the crisis that was coming.
The 9-10 episodes of the original 『Dear X" will be released at 6 p.m. on the 27th.
