CNBLUE's Jung Yong-hwa-led 'Oh! My Guard' hits Viu Top 10 in six Asian countries and No. 1 on Japan's Lemino two weeks after release

"Oh! My Guard," the Lifetime weekend drama starring CNBLUE's Jung Yong-hwa, has climbed near the top of OTT charts in major Asian countries just two weeks after its release. On the weekly chart for the fifth week of October (Oct. 26 to Nov. 1) released on the 6th by pan-Asian OTT platform Viu, the series ranked No. 2 in Indonesia, No. 4 in Hong Kong, No. 5 in Malaysia, No. 8 in Thailand and the Philippines, and No. 10 in Singapore, entering the Top 10 in six countries. Viu said the chemistry of the lead actors and the unique romance premise are drawing local viewers' interest. On Japanese OTT platform Lemino, it ranked No. 1 among popular Asian dramas as of the 6th. According to OTT ranking site FlixPatrol, it ranked No. 1 on Taiwan's MyVideo right after release and No. 2 as of Nov. 3, and took No. 1 in Lemino's Korea/Asia category on Nov. 4. Jung Yong-hwa plays Eom Tae-bong, a top star with the secret that he cannot film kiss scenes. The romantic comedy follows an actor famed for melodramas who has a fatal flaw and a mysterious woman (Hong Seung-hee) who believes she is the heroine of a drama, and it is directed by Yun Jong-ho of "Lovely Runner." CNBLUE has released the special single "Running" and will also hold a KSPO DOME concert in February next year.
