The ratings spike is most likely to do with the kiss between Lee Jong-suk and Suzy, which was romantic and hinted at more good things to come.

MBC's "Hospital Ship", which had been the number one Wednesday/Thursday drama, came in second with 7.1% and 8.3%. The two aren't too far apart in ratings so there could be a battle for the number one spot.

Coming in third was the KBS "Drama Special - Kang Deok-soon's Love History" at 2.9%, which is relatively consistent with the other specials.
