The original novel of "In the Clouds" is not well-known, but the adaptation captured the popular "refreshing point" of watching dramas and became a popular dark horse in the second quarter.
In contrast, the performance of reality-themed drama series in the second quarter was not good enough. "Riding the Wind and Waves", "City Within the City" and " Today's Girls " had a good lineup, but the response after broadcast was mediocre.
