MBC's new sageuk drama 'The King Loves 왕은 사랑한다 - directed by PD Kim Sang Hyup and writer Song Ji Na has kicked off with the viewers ratings of 8.1% on its first episode broadcast.
According to Nielsen Korea survey on August 18th, "The King Loves" has recorded 8.1% of the national average ratings (9.1% in Seoul and the metropolitan area). It was slightly lower than last viewers ratings (10.2%) of the previous drama 'The Guardians', and it was the second place in the same time zone audience rating. The first place was steadily guarded by KBS2TV drama 'My Sassy Girl 'at (10.2%).
The new historical drama tells the story of Goryeo Prince Wang Won (played by Im Shi Wan) and bodyguard Rin (played by Hong Jong Hyun) both desire the beautiful girl, Eun San (played by Im YoonA). Another typical love story between two men and one girl...
By one look of the trailer and poster, I don't know whether should I even start watching this drama knowing the story line. Me no fan of YoonA, with two pretty good looking men in it...mmm... for one thing I do know Si Wan is a good actor and we are missing him since he's gone for his military duties.
School 2017 released its first episode as well with audience rating at 5% with 6.8% and 6.1% respectively in Seoul and the metropolitan area. It was recorded one of the lowest of the programs broadcast during the same time. School 2017 drama is a series which has been progressed since 1999 where the school students expressed their emotions and experiences. School 2017 starring Gugadan's Kim Se Jeong, Kim Jung Hyun, Jang Dong Yun, Han Seon Hwa...etc.
And whether should I ever start watching either these 2 dramas- let's see...I am not a fan of school kids drama especially they are casting all idol group singers who can barely act with expressions. I think I will skip School 2017 as the last one I watched School 2013 was great with Lee Jong Suk and Kim Woo Bin in it.
