I know about this website, but my thoughts about it are the same as for the CSM ratings: https://github.com/RatingPosterDB/rpdb-folders/issues/34#issuecomment-1019466654

This might be the lowest priority ratings source though, as IMDB has ratings for all these shows too, and checking only Squid Game, there are 382k votes on IMDB and 61k votes on MDL, so IMDB might be an actual better source for ratings for korean dramas. Compared to anime or CSM which offer ratings of a specific mind set, IMDB vs MDL ratings seem similar in general.

Given enough time, maybe all these ratings sources will be supported, but it won't happen soon as there is a great deal of effort to keep the service stable when adding a new source and a lot of added work for maintenance too.
