Three Days has not only ranked number one out of dramas airing on Wednesdays and Thursdays but it has also become a big hit in China.
According to China’s Youku, which has purchased the copyrights to the drama, Three Days has already reached 180 million views as of April 9, before the drama even reached the halfway point.
Three Days has also raked in 68 million views on another Chinese streaming site Tudou as of April 9, with the drama earning a total of around 240 million views in the country.
Three Days has also been receiving high ratings. Starting with 9.3 rating, the drama hit a 9.5 rating last week, the highest score for any Korean drama so far.
With the increasing popularity of Three Days, lead actor Park Yoo Chun’s other drama Rooftop Prince has resurfaced on the drama chart again after two years, ranking number 7.
Golden Thumb Pictures, the drama production company, stated, “Even a politics professor in a famous Chinese university praised Three Days. Most of the popular Korean dramas in China have been romantic comedy. So some were worried that Three Days would not be popular in China but it became one of the most popular dramas. This result is due to combination of great acting, solid storyline and the current Hallyu wave in China.”

“This result is due to combination of great acting, solid storyline and the current hallyu wave in China.” – Personally I would say this result is due to a combination of great acting, solid storyline & most importantly PARK YOOCHUN 😀

Shamelessly agree with you.

Daebak! 🙂
I knew you’ll do well there. China loves action movies and this drama is very well made.
“Starting with 9.3 rating, the drama hit a 9.5 rating last week, the highest score for any Korean drama so far.” I love this part! YES! FIGHTING! 3-DAYS!
There is another amazing part of Three Day. It has gather different group of viewers in China whom are not the regular Kdrama viewers. Their drama critics and discussions are non related to fashions, makeup and loves, instead politics with Korean 1998 history and guns’ model and shooting become the main topics…
There are actually a lot of China web channels can watch “3 days”, can’t imaging how large is the viewer number if we count all together… 🙂
