‘EXchange Season 4’ Dominates Non-Drama Charts for Three Weeks — Jung Won-gyu and Park Ji-hyun Lead Popularity Rankings!
‘EXchange Season 4’ has officially hit its stride, topping the TV-OTT integrated non-drama popularity rankings for the third straight week, according to Good Data Corporation’s FUNdex released on November 5.
The TVING original continues to prove its dominance. For the 5th week of October, it not only stayed at No. 1 but also achieved its highest popularity score yet. Compared to previous installments, Season 4 is setting records across the board—up 207.6% from Season 3 and 78.1% higher than Season 2. Clearly, Season 4 is now the most popular installment in the EXchange franchise to date.
Interestingly, the show’s cast is just as hot as the program itself. Jung Won-gyu and Park Ji-hyun ranked first and second among all non-drama cast members. Meanwhile, Sung Baek-hyun, Kwak Min-kyung, and Jo Yu-sik landed in 4th, 5th, and 6th positions, respectively—putting five EXchange members in the Top 10 for the week.
Outside EXchange’s dominance, ENA and SBS Plus’s ‘I Am Solo’ took 2nd place in overall non-drama popularity. Netflix’s ‘Physical: Asia’ followed at 3rd, recording a notable increase compared to the first week of Season 2’s release.
Further down the list, tvN’s ‘The Game Caterers’ and JTBC’s ‘Sing Again 4’ claimed 4th and 5th. Though each slipped a spot from the previous week, both programs actually saw a rise in overall buzz. The shows’ participants also made noise individually—DAY6 (from The Game Caterers) ranked 8th, while contestant No. 50 from Sing Again 4 landed at 7th in the cast popularity list.
MBC’s ‘Rookie Director Kim Yeon-koung’ held onto 6th place in non-drama popularity. Notably, Kim Yeon-koung herself and Inkushi made it to 3rd and 9th in the cast category, underscoring the program’s growing presence.
Meanwhile, from 7th to 10th place were JTBC’s ‘Knowing Bros’, MBC’s ‘I Live Alone’, KBS2’s ‘Gag Concert’, and JTBC’s ‘Divorce Camp Pilot’, rounding out the list.
The Good Data Corporation report for the 5th week of October (Oct. 27–Nov. 2, 2025) covered both TV and OTT original non-dramas, tracking all shows broadcast, released, or scheduled during that period—plus their featured cast members and guests.
