allkpop TV Guide and Ratings (10/24-10/30)

Welcome to another week of 'allkpop TV guide and Ratings', an exclusive feature that spotlights four popular Korean dramas. It will discuss ratings for each week's episodes, as well as provide brief recaps (with spoilers, so watch out!) of shows that we know allkpop readers are enjoying. We've got the four regular shows being recapped for this week � 'Poseidon' (with Super Junior's Choi Siwon), 'Deep-Rooted Tree' (starring Shin Se Kyung, Jang Hyuk, and Super Junior's Kim Ki Bum), 'Can't Live with Losing' (with Hallyu star Choi Ji Woo) , and 'Man of Honor' (starring Park Min Young and Chun Jung Myung). � 'Poseidon' is seeing a slight increase of ratings from its average ratings with a high of 7.3% rating as the plot becomes more complicated and the romance heats up. However, SBS's 'Thousand Day Promise' (starring Su Ae and Kim Rae Won) is crowned as the first place winner as it saw a surge of high ratings this week with a record of 17.4%, as the storyline officially began Su Ae's memory loss. MBC's 'Gyebaek' has a stable rating track with a 13.3%. With 'Can't Live with Losing' finishing its airing last week, MBC aired two drama specials as the following drama, 'I'm a Flower, Too', needed the extra time and preparation after Kim Jae Won abruptly pulled from the drama due to his shoulder injury. 'I'm a Flower, Too' marks Lee Ji Ah's drama comeback after her scandal with ex-husband, Seo Tae Ji, and also Yoon Si Yoon's comeback after being crowned the 'ratings king' with 'King of Baking, Kim Tak Goo'. [Note: Since MBC aired drama specials this week, we will be recapping the finale of 'Can't Live with Losing' from last week.] 'Deep-Rooted Tree' is still reigning in the ratings game with a record 18.9%, while 'Man of Honor' is gaining momentum against 'Deep-Rooted Tree' with a 13.6% rating, as many netizens are noting that the rating is creeping up much like the writers' previous drama, 'King of Baking, Kim Tak Goo'. While 'Man of Honor' and 'Deep-Rooted Tree' will likely stay as the top dramas for the Wednesday-Thursday airing, let's see how well the actual 'King of Baking', Yoon Si Yoon, and Lee Ji Ah do with 'I'm a Flower, Too'. === [SPOILERS BELOW]         !!! === ? Poseidon (KBS)         Official Synopsis: Kim Sun Woo (Super Junior's Choi Siwon) spent his school days as a troublemaker, but decides to make a change in his life and joins the marine special forces team, aptly named 'Poseidon'.
