tvNŌĆÖs Under the QueenŌĆÖs Umbrella took the top spot for two weeks in a row. The death of the crown prince (Bae In Hyuk) drew attention, and Kim Hye SooŌĆśs performance as the queen received rave reviews. However, the criticisms about the historical inaccuracy continued, demanding closer attention to the details. SBSŌĆÖs Cheer Up rose to second place. The love triangle between Bae In Hyuk, Han Ji Hyeon, and Kim Hyun Jin continued to become a hot topic, and all three of them ranked in the cast ranking. MBCŌĆÖs The Golden Spoon came in third. Yook Sungjae and YeonwooŌĆśs kiss scene in episode 12 surprised viewers with its intensity. SBSŌĆÖs One Dollar Lawyer dropped to fourth place due to a cancellation of one episode. This led to the responses that the network got in the way of the dramaŌĆÖs success. tvNŌĆÖs Love in Contract and KBSŌĆÖs Bad Prosecutor kept their places in the chart. KBSŌĆÖs The Law Cafe ended in eighth place, failing to maintain its early momentum. In the first week of November, Cheer Up, May I Help You?, and Love is for Suckers canceled their broadcast due to Itaewon Halloween crowd crush, and One Dollar Lawyer canceled one episode for SBSŌĆÖs self-produced project.
MnetŌĆÖs Show Me the Money 11 topped the chart again. DON MALIK showed off his presence as the most likely candidate to win the show, and the team including Lee Young Ji, who made headlines for his appearance, wasnŌĆÖt revealed in the episode, raising curiosity. Meanwhile, a whole bunch of variety shows, including Running Man which teased BTSŌĆÖ JinŌĆśs guest appearance, 2 Days & 1 Night, and National Singing Contest, canceled the broadcast due to the Itaewon tragedy that occurred on October 29th.
