MBC may be getting ready to let that axe fall for the third time this year. I’m reading conflicting reports about its soccer drama Heading to the Ground, but it’s not looking good.
KBS’s blockbuster drama IRIS has just premiered with a very strong rating in the 20% ballpark. The number was a whopping 24.5%.
That means that the poorly performing Heading, which has several weeks still left to go, is now essentially dead, with Iris and You’re Beautiful getting most of the attention.
One report says that Heading will end early and allow Hero, the Lee Junki vehicle, to begin a week earlier than planned, which would give MBC more to work with in the Wednesday-Thursday ratings battle. That would mean that the 20-episode Heading would need to wrap up by its 18th episode instead. However, Star News reports that MBC has “strongly denied” the curtailment rumors. In a phone interview on the 14th, the MBC source said, “Rumors of cutting it early are ridiculous” and that the drama would end as planned.
As you know, MBC cut Tamra the Island and Strike Love, but strongly denied rumors of cutting Friend, Our Legend, which went on to complete its original run. I’ll be keeping an eye out to see which side prevails.

MBC podria estar preparandose en dejar caer el hacha por tercera vez este año. Estoy leyendo informes conflictivos acerca del drama de futbol "Heading to the Ground", pero no se ve bien.
El drama de gran exito IRIS de la KBS acaba de estrenar con un rating muy fuerte con el 20%. El numero fue grandisimo 24.5%.
Eso significa que el probre desempeño de "Heading to the Ground", el cual tiene varias semanas, esta ahora practicamente muerto, con "Iris" y "You're Beautiful" consiguiendo la mayor atencion.
Un informe dice que "Heading to the Ground" terminara antes de tiempo y permitira que "Hero", de Lee Junki, empieze una semana antes de lo planeado, el cual daria a la MBC mas trabajo con la batalla del Raiting de los Miercoles-Jueves. Eso significaria que los 20 episodios que "HTTG" necesitaban, concluiria en su episodio 18 en lugar.
Sin embargo, Star News informo que la MBC ha "Negado Rotundamente" los rumores de corte.
En una entrevista via telefonica el 14, la fuente de la MBC dijo, "Los rumores de cortar antes de tiempo son ridiculos" y que el drama terminaria como lo planeado.
Como usted sabe, MBC corto "Tamra the Island" y "Strike Love", pero nego rotundamente de cortar "Friend", "Our Legend", los cuales continuaron en completar con su presentacion original. Estare vigilando para ver que lado prevalece.
