"Superman Returns" Ratings Peak During the Preview of Song Il Gook's Triplets and Lee Hwi Jae's Twins' Meeting

KBS2TV’s “Superman Returns” has maintained its popularity among the Sunday variety shows.

The November 16 episode of the show recorded nation-wide viewer ratings of 17.0%, topping the competitive time slot. On this episode, Song Il Gook and singer Sean participated in a run with their children, and the two father figures impressed the viewers with their physical and mental strength.

The preview clip of next week’s episode was met with a particularly positive response from the viewers, as the one-minute clip at the end of the show recorded extremely high ratings at 23.8%. The peak took place as a preview of the anticipated meeting between Song Il Gook’s triplets and Lee Hwi Jae‘s twins was being broadcast.

Last month, the fans of “Superman Returns” were delighted to spot the two fathers having a playdate with their sons in Songdo, Incheon. Snapshots of the five boys and their fathers began circulating on social media, and it was later revealed that Lee Hwi Jae and his twins, Seo Joon and Seo Eon, paid a visit to actor Song Il Gook and his triplets, Dae Han, Min Gook, and Man Se.

The episode featuring the triplets and twins’ meeting will air next Sunday at 4:50 p.m.
