Commercial breaks

There are usually 1-minute commercial breaks in after the ending and before the beginning of each episode when 2 to 5 episodes of the same drama were broadcast back-to-back. Due to this scheme of not having commercial breaks during programmes, the show usually ends at about 45 minutes after the show has started to marks the end of the episode of each drama series, making the run of an episode faster than the typical one hour (60 minutes) including commercials.
