Currently, "The World of the Married" broke the record of "SKY Castle", which held the title for jTBC's all-time highest ratings for dramas. In the tenth episode of "The World of the Married", which aired on April 25th, it showed 22.92% nationwide and 25.9% in the Seoul metropolitan area (based on Nielsen Korea's paid households). It surpassed the ratings record of "SKY Castle" (24.6%) in the Seoul metropolitan area, and has also broken the national record since then.

Beyond the original BBC "Dr. Foster", its solid completeness, mysterious elements that stimulate curiosity, dense psychological portrayals of characters and the passionate performances by Kim Hee-ae, Park Hae-joon, and Han So-hee are showing explosive power. Chae Gook-hee, Lee Mu-saeng and Shim Eun-woo are also showing their crazy presence.

Chae Gook-hee plays the role of Seol Myeong-sook in "The World of the Married". Kim Hee-ae (Ji Seon-woo) is a fellow doctor at the hospital. She enjoys other people's unhappiness. She is a long time friend of Kim Hee-ae's character, but she watched the affair between Park Hae-joon (Lee Tae-oh) and Han So-hee (Yeo Da-kyeong) for a long time and found it interesting. Since then, she has been showing her ambition, aiming for the post of Vice President at any chance she gets. Chae Gook-hee's eyes, which express subtle psychology, are the best.

Chae Gook-hee debuted in 1994 as a musical actress. She is the younger sister of actress Chae Shi-ra. Before debuting as a musical actress, she had worked as a Korean Air flight attendant for about a year. She has done plays, dramas, movies and musicals with her unique acting. She played the role of a madam in the movie "The Thieves" and played the role of Chan-mo, the head of the maids in the drama "Maids", giving off cool charisma. The drama "Fantastic" drew attention as she played the role as an anger-causing agent for Park Si-yeon.

Lee Mu-saeng (Kim Yoon-gi) was thought to be a psychiatrist who loved Kim Hee-ae in a gentle manner, but his bigger ambition was hidden. He was secretly talking in private with Lee Kyung-young (Yeo Byeong-gyoo). Following his instructions, Lee Mu-saeng gave a psychological peek at Kim Hee-ae and Park Hae-joon and reported back to him. Kim Hee-ae was pushed out and he took the position of the new vice president of the hospital. He was so different from the outside.

Lee Mu-saeng debuted in 2006 with the film "See You After School". It turns out, he is one from Ahn Pan-seok's regularly cast actors. He worked with producer Ahn Pan-seok in "White Tower", "Secret Love Affair", "Pretty Sister Who Buys Me Food" and "One Spring Night". The dramas "One Spring Night" and "Designated Survivor: 60 Days", which aired last year, imprinted his presence on the public. In "One Spring Night" he induced anger in viewers by playing husband Nam Si-hoon, who often engages in domestic violence, and in "Designated Survivor: 60 Days", he played Kim Nam-wook, a spokesperson for the Blue House, helping Ji Jin-hee, who played President Moo-jin, to display his abilities as a politician.

Shim Eun-woo is Min Hyeon-seo, Kim Hee-ae's reliable helper in "The World of the Married". From her experience of dating violence, she forms a bond of sympathy with Kim Hee-ae, who experienced an unfortunate event due to her situation and her husband's affair. She is a social underdog who needs someone's help. She feels grateful for Kim Hee-ae's concern and tries her best to keep her loyalty to her in return.

Shim Eun-woo is the next rising star who has gradually built up her filmography. She made her debut in 2015 with the film "Two Sisters" and starred in the dramas "Queen of Walking", "The Closed Ward", "60 Days of Summer", "Wanted", "Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People", "Suspicious Partner", "Less Than Evil", "Diary of a Prosecutor" and "Arthdal Chronicles". Since her debut, she has been continuously working on various works. She took up the opportunity in "The World of the Married" and caused viewers to fall into her dreamy yet mysterious face. At once, she made the public ask who she is and made an impression.
