‘The King 2 Hearts’, ‘Rooftop Prince’, and ‘The Equator Man’ battle it out for viewer ratings


There seems to be a change happening on what will be the top drama on Wednesday and Thursday nights.
If we follow the statistics given by the AGB Neielson Media Research group, on March 28th, the ratings for MBC’s The King 2 Hearts‘, SBS’s Rooftop Prince’ and KBS2′s The Equator Man‘ was 14.5%, 11.2% and 8.1% respectively.
On March 22nd, ‘The King 2 Hearts’ recorded a viewer ranking of 16.5% meaning it dropped 2% this week.  ‘Rooftop Prince’ was at 10.5% last week meaning it saw a rise of .7%, and ‘The Equator Man’ had very similar numbers from last week.
There was not much change in viewers for both ‘Rooftop Prince’ and ‘The Equator Man’, but there was a significant drop for ‘The King 2 Hearts.’  ‘The King 2 Hearts’ is still number one in the time slot but ‘Rooftop Prince’ had steady viewer growth through its first three episodes from 9.8% to 10.5% and finally to 11.2%, leaving it just 3.3% out of first place.
With so many great choices for drama these days, it is no wonder that all have similar numbers.
