A Thousand Days’ Promise is indeed the reigning champion, the rating of 16.9% rose 1.6% over last episode.
In the Brain episode of the day, Lee Kang Hoon (played by Shin Ha Kyun) goes to find professor Kim Sang Chul (played by Jeong Jin Yeong), kneeling down on the ground to beg him to save his mother (played by Song Ok Sook).
