CJ ENM recently released the latest data for its Content Power Index (CPI), which measures the most influential shows on South Korean television according to data from social media. For the fourth week of May, defined as May 23rd to May 29th, the most talked about show by far was "My Liberation Notes" with 395.2 points. The adult family drama from JTBC ended its run on May 29th with ratings of 6.728%.

For a sense of perspective, the second most popular drama was "Our Blues" on tvN with only 277.5 points. "Again My Life" on SBS had 249.1 points, with all other dramas performing neglibly compared to variety shows over the same period. Despite relatively modest ratings, "My Liberation Notes" has shown outsized influence in social media tracking at the tail end of its run, with all of its leading performers, but particularly Son Sukku, becoming quite popular.
