[Spoiler Alert: Episode Summary]
This article contains plot points and episode summaries from ‘Would You Marry Me?’ Episode 10
With just two episodes left, SBS’s 'Would You Marry Me?' continues to dominate viewer attention by maintaining a tightly woven and gripping storyline, breaking its own viewership record in the latter half of its run.
Earlier, the drama faced heavy criticism after episode 6 aired last month, where elements of illegal filming and stalking were incorporated into a romantic plot. Viewers expressed outrage over what appeared to be a “proxy forgiveness” narrative regarding illegal filming, prompting the production team to quietly delete the controversial clip — a move that only intensified the backlash. The matter has reportedly been filed as a complaint with the Korea Communications Standards Commission (KCSC).
'Would You Marry Me?' follows the sweet yet tense 90-day fake newlywed life of a man and a woman determined to win a luxury newlywed home. The chemistry between Choi Woo Sik and Jung So Min, combined with the drama’s fast-paced storytelling, has captivated audiences.
In episode 10, the storyline reached new heights of tension. Kim Woo Joo’s (Choi Woo Shik) uncle, Jang Han Goo (played by Kim Young Min), revealed his true colors, pushing the family business Myungsundang into crisis. When Woo Joo’s grandmother, Go Pil Nyeon (played by Jung Ae Ri), discovered Han Goo’s involvement in an investment fraud, she collapsed, while Myungsundang was falsely accused of accepting funds under a fake contract. Amid the chaos, Yoo Me Ri (played by Jung So Min) stood by Woo Joo, bringing emotional depth to the episode as the two joined forces to expose Han Goo’s deception.
Viewers have praised the unpredictable, high-speed storytelling of 'Would You Marry Me?' Following the rapid development of Woo Joo and Me Ri’s romance, the fast-paced depiction of the Myungsundang crisis and its resolution has further heightened audience engagement.
Episode 10 achieved the show’s highest ratings yet, proving 'Would You Marry Me?’s magnetic pull even as it nears its finale. The episode peaked at 11.1% in real-time ratings, with national ratings at 7.9% and metropolitan area ratings at 8.5%. Among viewers aged 20 to 49 — the drama’s key target demographic — it reached a peak of 3.26% and an average of 2.4%, topping all Saturday mini-series.
According to global content ranking site FlixPatrol, 'Would You Marry Me?' ranked 4th worldwide in Disney+ TV show charts as of November 4, maintaining a strong presence since its premiere and drawing steady global attention.
'Would You Marry Me?' airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 PM on SBS.
