It has a weak storyline," "You don't get curious about the next episode for 'See You in My 19th Life,'" "I think 'King the Land' rating is pretty good though," "I'm more surprised that 'King the Land' has that high of a rating," "I don't think Ahn Bo Hyun is good at acting in this drama.

Currently in souht korea it's summer so a lot of people travel to the beach with their friends and/or families, so it's not surprising that these months the viewership drops, this is normal. duh~
on the other hand, The only one drama that has a strong viewership ratings on cable tv is 'King The Land', the other ('See You in My 19th Life') only has an average viewership.
King the land is a worldwide hit, its last TV rating also rising again. duh!~
Now, why again is akp trying to force bring and try to compare a current hit world k-drama like 'King The Land', with an average kdrama as 'See You in My 19th Life?? Even more so knowing that both are so different dramas.
hmmm? 🧐... is akp trying to destroy both k-dramas to favor akp's favortite real drama which is almost a flop cos its ratings are low many times and akp never wrote 1 article about its rating drops?.

Despite being a rom-com, KTL has an interesting n more realistic plot who shows a more natural and realrelationship, and also subtly shows hard work, competitiveness and the lack of jobs for all workers, and the destruction of labor rights in a capitalist world that only seeks profit regardless of exploiting others where workers are subject to rules of obedience and indoctrinated, KTL's plot also touch on the subject of psychological abuse that some women suffer from their partners, while SYIM19L immerses itself in fantasy
4️⃣ WHICH DRAMA BECAME A HIT FROM THE START? This is KING THE LAND
king the land ranking at the first place from the start and reached the Highest Viewership among all TV cable k-dramas currently airing. KTL took also the first places on many international platforms.
[LEADING ACTORS]:
According to experts it is said that acting in comedy is much more difficult to achieve than acting in fantasy and even drama. There is a phrase that says: ~ It is more difficult to make ppl laugh than cry ~
5️⃣ BEST ACTRESS & BEST ACTOR? this is YOONA & JUNHO
Shin hye-sun is a very good actress, but Yoona is better actress than her, she is a rom-com queen and box office queen, and even one of her hit dramas surpassed 41% rating.
Currently, junho and yoona proved to be 2 excellent actors again.
note: yoona and junho even won best new actress and best actor at the Baeksans, And yoona even won best supporting actor at the Grand Bell Awards ( baeksang and grand bell are 2 of the most prestigious entertainment awards in sk, regarded as the Academy Awards, Oscars, of sk)
6️⃣ WHO HAS MORE NOMINATIONS & WON MORE AWARDS in their careers AS ARTIST & ACTOR? this is YOONA
7️⃣ WHICH COUPLE HAS THE BEST LOOK (body, face, hair, outfit, makeup) & BEST CHEMISTRY IN THEIR CURRENT DRAMA? this is JUNHO & YOONA
Junho and Ahn Bo Hyun look very good especially JUNHO, He has done exercises, his body and face look toned and sexy. his outfit is perfect n cool. While, Yoona and Shin hye-sunboth don't look very good in their current dramas especially Shin Hye sun, it's bcos of their chubby cheeks, bad basic makeup, bad bangs/hairstyles and some bad outfits. They need to improve their looks, lose weight on their chubby cheeks, apply better makeup to highlight their beauty. they are nice girls, but Yoona is prettier and looks better than Shin hye-sun
* note: yoona was chosen one of the most beautiful, fashionable and sexy women in the world
junho and yoona's chemistry is the best because is extremely natural.
Therefore, KING THE LAND has almost everything, a great and talented main cast, a rom-com and box-office queen, a sexy male leader, great cinematography, great musical repertoire, a very funny and fresh plot and even more realistic, and a funny talented couple with great chemistry. So It doesn't surprise me that KING THE LAND is a HIT in the World
note: 'See You in My 19th Life' is not a bad drama, it's just not as great as 'King The Land'
