Agent Kim Reactivated Ratings: 22.3% and Netflix Global No. 1

Agent Kim Reactivated is succeeding in two different systems: Episode 6 reached a 22.3% nationwide household rating in Korea, while Netflix recorded 10.5 million views worldwide for June 29–July 5.

6 min readOriginal editorial analysis

The Korean ratings climbed from 9.5% to 22.3%

The premiere opened at 9.5% nationwide, Episode 2 rose to 15.7%, Episode 3 reached 18.8%, and Episode 4 crossed 20% at 21.6%. Episode 6 then set a new series high of 22.3% according to Nielsen Korea reporting.

That placed the drama second among SBS Friday–Saturday dramas by the cited nationwide benchmark. It is a strong linear-TV result, especially because the show is also available through streaming.

Netflix measured 10.5 million global views

For June 29–July 5, Netflix ranked the limited series No. 1 among global Non-English Shows with 10.5 million views and 44.1 million hours watched. Netflix calculates views by dividing total watch time by runtime.

The chart covers a defined week, so the date range belongs beside the number. It should not be presented as an all-time audience total.

Why these numbers cannot be added together

Nielsen's Korean household rating estimates the share of television households watching a broadcast. Netflix's global views are a streaming calculation across many countries. They measure different audiences, territories, devices, and behaviors.

Together they show broad momentum at home and abroad. Adding the percentages and views, or calling them the same audience, would be misleading.

Why the show traveled

The premise is immediately legible: an underestimated father reactivates dangerous skills to find his daughter. Netflix also categorizes it across action, crime, comedy, spies, and WEBTOON adaptation, giving different audiences multiple entry points.

Our interpretation is that the family relationship keeps the action understandable across markets. That is editorial analysis, distinct from the measured rankings above.

Key takeaways

  • Episode 6 reached 22.3% nationwide in Korea.
  • Netflix ranked the series No. 1 globally among Non-English Shows for June 29–July 5 with 10.5 million views.
  • Korean TV ratings and Netflix global views are separate measurements.
