1. [+319, -45] Well they basically said don't watch if you don't like it so I didn't.. I guess it helped..

2. [+310, -65] It's going to drop even worse from here on out. How dare the staff who are worse than dogs stick Lee Soon Shin's name on someone like IU.

3. [+253, -59] It's not only because of the name, it's because of the poor acting as well. It only had high viewer ratings at first because 'Seoyoung' ended and people had nothing else to watch. A shame because Jo Jung Suk seemed great at acting.

4. [+76, -14] They think they can live up to 'You Who Rolled In...' and 'Seoyoung'? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Not only is the content empty but the entire cast was miscast. They're blind if they think they can ever jump 50%;;; Viewers of the previous two dramas all watched the first episode and changed the channel at the sitcom-like acting.

5. [+61, -12] Ridiculing a historical hero and ignoring the opinions of viewers. Final judgment: Take the drama off air. I heard this was even controversial with international Hallyu fans... What an embarrassment to the country.

Anyway, I found out it's considered a golden time slot because SBS and MBC air news in the same time slot and people would rather watch a drama with their families after dinner.

1. [+354, -9] I truly wonder who's backing the 'WGM' PD to allow him to keep the show on air like this

2. [+272, -10] Perfect opportunity to take the show off air

3. [+251, -13] I bet playing reruns of Infinity Challenge would get better viewer ratings than this

4. [+196, -20] I'd consider watching if they got Se7en and Park Han Byul, otherwise I don't care

5. [+117, -4] Come on guys, let's get with the program. This has gone on long enough.
