Article: 'Pretty Man' a dismal 6% viewer rating start, did not manage to catch the 'Secret' viewers

1. [+1,013, -95] It's only going to drop lower. Think of the cast combination... You have the nation's tryhard Jang Geun Suk who averaged 5% in viewer ratings with 'Mary Stayed Out All Night' and 'Love Rain', IU with her anchovy and plagiarism controversy, Han Chae Young whose 'Advertisement Genius Lee Tae Baek' recorded 3% in viewer ratings, and finally Lee Jang Woo, who put 'WGM' down the toilet... You couldn't have a worst cast combination than this.

2. [+628, -28] The cast combination is just all sorts of wrong

3. [+560, -64] Of course they couldn't catch the 'Secret' viewers, the viewerbase for that drama were mostly people in their 40s~60s while The Heirs are teens to 30s. Do you really expect older parents to watch a manhwa remake?

4. [+230, -12] I expect a heated battle between this drama and Medical Top Team

1. [+552, -73] Honestly, Jang Geun Suk is a good actor

2. [+469, -54] His acting has always been fine

3. [+223, -21] Jang Geun Suk's acting has never been a problem. The problem's always been his choice of dramas.. He always picks the same characters. When I saw him on Beethoven Virus, I really thought he'd become a great actor.
