Since its premiere on Dec 5th, “Sorry Not Sorry” has recorded ratings in the 0% range for three consecutive episodes, starting at 0.3% for its debut and currently maintaining a 0.4% rating.
“Sorry Not Sorry” marks KBS N’s return to drama production after a decade. Directed by Min Ji-young and written by Jo Yoo-jin and Choi Ryong, the drama portrays the survival story of a woman who, after being jilted overnight, takes on multiple jobs to pay off her marital home’s loan. At the press conference, Director Min described the drama as “a comprehensive gift set of comedy, family, healing and growth” and highlighted its focus on “stories about new towns, women in their 30s and mothers”.
Jeon So-min, making her first acting appearance since leaving “Running Man”, plays Ji Song-yi, a divorced woman disguising herself as a married woman. She expressed her excitement for the role, “I was looking for a bright and refreshing project when the script for ‘Sorry Not Sorry’ came my way, and I’m grateful for the opportunity.”
Choi Daniel stars as Cha Hyun-woo, a divorce lawyer, while Kim Moo-jun plays Kim Ian, the cheerful owner of a café. The drama also features Gong Min-jeung as Choi Hana, a longtime friend and working mom practicing “miracle mornings”, and Jang Hee-ryung as Ahn Chanyang, the youngest daughter of a wealthy family, adding layers of humor and charm to the story.
During the drama’s press conference, Gong Min-jeung surprised everyone by announcing her pregnancy. The production team has shown meticulous care, adjusting her character’s storyline to accommodate her pregnancy.
When asked about ratings expectations, Jeon So-min remarked, “While high ratings would be great, I think a drama is a success if I hear ‘I’m enjoying Sorry Not Sorry’ about five out of ten times when visiting cafes or restaurants. People often associate me with ‘Running Man’, but by December, I hope they’ll say, ‘I’m loving Ji Song.’”
The cast’s chemistry also shone through. Jeon So-min praised Choi Daniel as a “master of romantic comedies” and lauded his ability to bring out the romance in his co-stars. Choi Daniel responded, “It’s my first time working with So-min, and I’ve been genuinely surprised. She’s the flower of our drama, so I want to help her bloom without fading.”
Although “Sorry Not Sorry” is struggling with low ratings, its blend of a realistic urban survival story and sweet romance, combined with the cast’s passionate performances, has earned it recognition for its quality. The drama airs every Thursday at 9 PM on KBS Joy.
