Captivating the King has ended on a happy note, but did it reflect on the ratings? In my previous blog entry, I talked about how this drama possesses an excellent cast, direction and storyline yet it hasn't reached double digits in the nationwide viewership ratings for its 14 episodes. I asked before whether the last 2 episodes will be able to reach double digits or not and guess what! It didn't. BUT! It ended with their highest nationwide viewership rating to date with 7.763%!!!

It's a shame that it didn't reach the double digits, but all is well as it ended successfully with a happy ending. I actually am very satisfied with how it ended. I saw a lot of commenters on my Facebook page that considers the ending to be bland considering the intensity of the previous episode. They felt that the ending was a bit disappointing as they have set a high expectation in it. We all respect that here, everyone has different tastes and preferences but for me, it was a great end.

How about you? What do you think about the ending??
I am glad it ended on a happy note. I hope that there is a Season two, so that we can see a further development in their relationship.
ReplyDeleteMongwoo will remain only as a gidaeryrong not a queen ? Season 2 pls
ReplyDeleteVous pouvez me dire si il y aura une suite car la fin et bizarre merci
ReplyDeleteI think the ending was perfect and open ended. They each played the perfect game! It made me wonder what is next! Season 2?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely loved this series! Do hope there is a Season 2 please!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved the show, Studio Dragon presents only high quality shows. But.. I was left a little confused as to where the two actors parts were going. If she was daughter of a noble, why couldn't she marry him. Are they going to continue as they are and why I. The world, once she had been outed as a women would be prefer her to keep dressing as a man.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the ending could have been stronger, considering how the script was built up in the last previous episode. They should have devoted the last episode tying in loose ends, like the return of Mongwoo, and maybe the wedding of the century with the king marrying her.
ReplyDeleteI didn't like the ending sorry but not sorry.
ReplyDeleteI love the ending, I don’t have to see them marry, its to anybody’s imagination, the portrayal is superb, sooo handsome the king and mongwo😁❤️
ReplyDeleteI was waiting a better ending, like she been a Queen or enjoying more their's love in the last episode. We need season 2
