It continued. Furthermore, we looked back at this year's tea room theater, which had no time to rest until the historical drama boom that continues to this day. ◆The female character who led the TV series has even reached the audience ratings
It was a year in which female characters stood out. The leading female character led the TV series and grabbed viewer ratings, and the momentum of having a female lead instead of a male lead was noticeable.
Lee Bo Young played the role of Ko Ah In, the first female executive of a group, in JTBC's ``Agent,'' which aired earlier this year, and achieved a remarkable career in the drama.
``Agent'', which recorded the highest audience rating of 16%, announced the start of a TV series led by a female lead.

achieved success in recording %. Kim TaeRi's performance in SBS's "Ghost" also stood out. ``Ghost'' is the first TV series that genre writer Kim Eun Hee has released in a long time, so even before it aired, everyone was excited.
Kim TaeRi perfectly played the role of Goo Sang-young, who is possessed by a demon, and the synergy became even greater.
Although Kim is one with the demon, she performed a solo struggle to reveal the true identity of the demon.
・Teri grasped not only the flow of the TV series but also the audience ratings, adding strength to the popularity of the TV series. In addition to this, JTBC's ``Strong Woman Kang Nam Soon'' was born with incredible strength.
The drama focused on drug crimes and gave viewers catharsis, with Kim Hye Soo-k, Kim Jung Eun, and Lee Yu-Mi playing the roles of a mother and daughter. Park Eun Bin of tvN's "Desert Island Diva" is inferior to the singer.
She showed off her unparalleled singing ability and stable acting, and was praised for being the very diva that she is, and completed the Well Made TV Series.
◆“Jidaigeki boom” that combines fusion to orthodoxy
This year, historical dramas have shown their strength, and the most notable one is MBC's "Lover" starring Nam Goong Min and Ahn Eun Jin.

It was well-received as it even included some sweet melodies. The highest viewership rating was 12.9% (based on Nielsen Korea nationwide paying households), making it the only MBCTV series that aired this year to have a double-digit viewership rating.
Ta. If ``Lover'' was loved as a fusion historical drama, it was succeeded by the orthodox historical drama KBS2 ``Koryo-Khitan War''.
Choi Suzyung returned to historical dramas for the first time in 10 years, and the work that attracted attention is based on the Goryeo Emperor Hyunjo.
It includes the story of Kim Dong-joon (Kim Dong-joon) and Kang Gam-chan (Choi Suzy-young), the commander-in-chief of the Goryeo army. ``Koryo-Khitan War,'' which exceeded double-digit viewership ratings for the 10th, is an important historical drama.
The majesty of the war scenes continues to be a hot topic in historical dramas. Furthermore, MBC's ``The Story of Park's Contract Marriage'' is also focusing on the period drama boom as a fusion historical drama.
Historical dramas were so prominent in 2023 that there is a saying that ``historical dramas went and historical dramas came.'' ◆Broadcast once a week A novel attempt...What are the results?
This was an innovative attempt in a world where TV series are now broadcast twice a week. The terrestrial TV series has decided on a programming strategy of once a week.
However, this has led to a heated debate as to whether this strategy is an advantage or a disadvantage.
