    In my opinion logical ratings. The story of the beautiful mermaid is very interesting and last one or two episodes. The Missing9 story is strange. I saw the Starting special episode and the truth did not cause me any interest. For intrigue and suspense, I better see Voice.

      They are definitely two very different dramas. Legend of the Blue Sea has a much broader appeal. I think it will do well for it’s finale too. Then we’ll have to see how a more unusual drama like Missing 9 holds up to the new competition 🙂
