It then remained on the list throughout all eight episodes of its Season 1 run. The finale then brought in 6.3 million views globally during its first seven days, and the series reached 17.6 million global views since its premiere on Jan. 26, marking a 151% increase from when the drama first reported viewership data. The series was renewed for a Season 2 before its first season concluded.
