This week's episode focused on how Ma-joon (Joo Won) leaves Oh Doo-yong's (Jang Hang-sun) baking school with a grudge because he failed to make it into the second round of a baking competition.

New SBS' drama "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho", starring Korean singer and actor Lee Seung-gi and Shin Min-a, came in second place with viewership ratings in the 12 to mid-14 percent range on both charts.

MBC's war epic "Road No. 1" continued to trail behind on the primetime lineup with low ratings in the 5 percent mark.
