Idol-actress Uee made her drama comeback through "Live Your Own Life." However, the series failed to record high ratings on pilot week.

Uee's Comeback Drama 'Live Your Own Life' Records Low Ratings

After a year of hiatus, Uee is finally back on primetime with the new lead drama "Live Your Own Life," which made its debut on September 16. Despite occupying the weekend slots, the series started with a disappointing rating.

Based on the data gathered and released by Nielsen Korea, the first episode of the KBS drama recorded a viewership rating of 16.5 percent.

As a result, the KBS weekend series continued to start with low ratings in the 10 percent range, from the previous work "The Real Has Come" to the follow-up series "Live Your Own Life."

Meanwhile, episode 2 of the ongoing drama garnered 18.4 percent and was able to record as the most-watched program of any kind to air on Sunday in Korea.

Is It True? KBS' Weekend Drama Fails to Secure High Viewership Ratings for 4 Years

To recall, Ahn Jae Hyun's family drama "The Real Has Come" kicked off with 17.7 percent, which was the first time in four years that the broadcasting company recorded ratings in the 10 percent range since "Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life."

"The Real Has Come" finale episode failed to surpass 30 percent and concluded with a 22.9 percent rating.

The new drama "Live Your Own Life" follows the story of Hyo Sim, who devoted her life to taking care of her family due to her kind and warm personality, and eventually decides to pursue an independent life away from her family after suffering a hard time with them.

Will 'Live Your Own Life' Be Able to Surpass Its Pilot Week Ratings?

Uee who had already headlined a weekend series "My Only One," which was an instant hit is receiving expectations from the crowd as she might be an instrument to increase the drama's ratings as she takes the female lead role in "Live Your Own Life."

Despite recording low ratings, attention is focused on whether viewership would rise in the next episodes.

Aside from Uee, the drama stars Ha Joon, who is making waves in the drama industry as he also appears in the trending fantasy-romance series "Destined With You" alongside Jo Bo Ah and Rowoon.

As Uee and Ha Joon joined forces for the first time, many are also anticipating their chemistry and what kind of performance they will bring in their first on-screen collaboration.

"Live Your Own Life" introduced Hyo Sim's family members. Meanwhile, Tae Ho (Ha Joon) returned to Korea to find his missing grandmother, and reunited with his mother in an intense atmosphere, raising viewers' curiosity about the narrative's developments.
