JTBC's latest Korean drama, " Final Table," officially premiered last weekend. Starring Ahn Hyo Seop, the drama, about a family restaurant and cooking competition, achieved moderate ratings. The first episode of Final Table premiered on Saturday (October 24, 2026). 

Nielsen Korea recorded a rating of only 1.9% on cable channel JTBC. While this figure is 0.1% higher than the series opener Fly High Butterfly which previously aired in the same slot, it is much lower than its competitors on other cable channels. 

Final Table competes with tvN's 100 Days of Deception. The Park Jinyoung-led drama is currently a viewer favorite and leading the ratings across all cable channels in South Korea. 

The second episode of Final Table, which aired Sunday night (October 25, 2026), showed even better ratings. Nielsen Korea recorded a 2.4% viewership rating for the series. 

In this second episode, Final Table outperformed Fly High Butterfly. The drama starring Kim Hyang Gi previously only received 2.08% in its second episode. Final Table tells the story of a chef named Kang Han (Ahn Hyo Seop). 

After a long career abroad, Kang Han decides to work at the Familia restaurant, which has been abandoned by its owner. The family restaurant is now run by Choi Song Yi (Hong Hwa Yeon), who knows nothing about cooking. 

To maintain the restaurant's existence, they enter the cooking competition The Table: K-Chef 2026. Romance is the main ingredient in this series, which you can watch on Prime Video.
