    This is a slight decrease from the 2.9% recorded for the previous episode, and “Today’s Webtoon” recorded its own lowest rating.

    On August 28, another post about Today’s Webtoon began trending on TheQoo‘s community board under the title, “Severe Viewership Ratings for SBS's FRI-SAT Drama“.

    The netizen then listed the following ratings from Episode 1 to 10:

    Episode 09 2.9 / ???
    Episode 10 1.5 / ??? ?lowest

    Meanwhile, other netizens quickly responded with comments such as:

    So, in the end, they reached the 1% mark. Even scarier is that there are still so many episodes left, so this might not even be their worst rating. There are 16 episodes in all.

    No one of them can act.

    At some point, I watched the replay, and in short, it was just boring… Someone said that Kim Sejeong's acting is too "I'm acting how I'm going to act now," so I just changed the channel.

    For SBS's Friday-Saturday show to reach 1%.. hul..

    No matter what she does, Kim Sejeong reminds me of Hyeri. I only see her as Kim Sejeong.

    Before we can say we can trust Kim Sejeong, we have to say that her acting in all of her works is too similar and she has no charms in this one.

    Can we stop making Japanese remakes? ㅋ It doesn't fit with our country, and we've seen cases like this many times. Why are we still making remakes?

    The first drama was good, but this one doesn't have the same feel.

    I watched the replay, but it seems like they are trying to make us feel sad, so I changed the channel.

    I always say this about remakes: If you're going to do it, please do it right. Please also choose the work that needs to be fixed. The original work isn't even that well-known, and it's just a simple drama about healing, so what gives? There are too many holes in the story. The conversations are also boring. The plot doesn't make sense. The characters don't have any charm. I couldn't watch more than episode 4. The actors aren't guilty, but the writer needs to calm down and get a grip on things… I'm really, really sad.

  • Fans can't stop swooning over BTS's V showing off cherry blossoms and his toned muscles just 40 days before discharge

    BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

    On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

    Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

    He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

    To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

    It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

    In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

    But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

    This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

    Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

    As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

    He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
