PRICELESS scores rating of 16.9% for its first episode
The first episode of FujiTV Gekku drama "PRICELESS" shown on 22 October achieved a rating of 16.9% which makes it third so far in terms of the debut episode ratings, falling behind "Aibou season 11" (19.9%) and "Doctor X" (18.6%). This is the first time that a Kimura Takuya drama has gone below the 20% mark for its first episode but considering the fact that the pro-baseball league's League Climax Series Match 6 was being shown on NTV at the same time and that the baseball match scored a high of 20.1%, this could be a reason why the ratings did not fare as well as expected. "PRICELESS" is Kimura's first drama in two-and-a-half years following 2010's spring drama "Tsuki no Koibito ~ Moon Lovers ~".

ReplyDeletejust wanna tell you that Takuya Kimura starred in Nankyoku Tairiku (2011) before.
ReplyDeleteHi anggayasha, thank you for pointing this out! My translation was based on what the journalist wrote but I'm guessing that either he/she forgot about Nankyoku Tairiku or simply wanted to refer to KimuTaku's work in FujiTV only so that's why Tsuki no Koibito was mentioned as his last drama instead.
