Let’s be clear camping under every post won’t rewrite reality. You can stay here all day repeating the same narrative but it doesn’t change measurable facts. Perfect Crown is pulling strong ratings, growing viewership leading its time slot and trending internationally. Those are objective indicators of success not opinions that can be argued away in comment sections. Criticism is normal and expected for any popular drama, but constant presence in its content just to downplay it only proves one thing it has impact. And impact is exactly what successful shows have. You’re free to keep camping here, but while that’s happening the drama will continue to grow, reach wider audiences, and achieve even higher milestones. At the end of the day, numbers move forward regardless of who chooses to stay behind in the comments.
Calling Perfect Crown a bad or cheap doesn’t make it one facts do. The drama opened with high ratings, crossed double digits within a few episodes, and is leading its time slot. It’s also trending internationally and ranking across multiple countries. That’s not “cheap drama” behavior that’s what a hit looks like. What’s actually happening is noise, not reality. A loud group of fans camping under every post doesn’t change viewership numbers or global rankings. Criticism is fine, but twisting narratives to downgrade one drama just to uplift another isn’t. You don’t have to like Perfect Crown, but calling a clearly successful drama a failure just exposes bias, not facts.
Princess Hours? Isn't it a very old drama 2006? Pardon me, I have not watched that, I guess many haven't. The…
Calling it no originality because two dramas use romance tropes is like saying every detective story copies Sherlock Holmes. Tropes ≠ copying.Falls first, she forgets, This is the classic unrequited slowburn trope. Used in Boys Over Flowers, Weightlifting Fairy, The King: Eternal Monarch before LR even existed. LR didn’t invent it. Running hug reunion It’s melodrama 101. Descendants of the Sun, Goblin,Crash Landing on You all have iconic run and hug scenes. It’s a K-drama staple, not LR exclusive. Car smile, arm sling, boat kiss, Injuries, vehicles, and romantic settings exist in 90% of romance dramas. Lovely Runner doesn’t own the patent on boy wears sling or kiss near water. LR comparisons are just surface level. If ‘similar vibes’ is equal to copying, then LR copied every rom-com since 2000. LR doesn’t own rights to guy falls first or arm sling or boat kiss'😂 These are basic K/C-drama tropes used.... LR modern idol + time travel. If different genre + different stakes + different plot no originality then every drama ever is a copy. Try again.
I've seen a lot of posts here on ML's acting ability & role & this is what I think: The drama is primarily…
Well he can act really well..... We've seen him in his various projects.... He has been in this industry since decades .... He is not the 'eye candy' ..... He's doing according to his character....
The backlash against Perfect Crown seems driven more by mismatched expectations than actual issues. Viewers expecting fast-paced drama and expressive characters won’t connect with a story built on restraint and internal conflict. That doesn’t make it poorly executed it just means it’s not catering to everyone.Overall, Perfect Crown continues to lean into its slow burn storytelling. Episodes 5 and 6 especially highlight the prince’s emotional restraint and inner conflict rather than dramatic outbursts. The pacing may feel quiet, but it’s intentional the drama focuses more on subtle expressions and gradual character development than instant payoff. It’s not for everyone, but for viewers who appreciate nuance it’s actually quite compelling. The hate around Perfect Crown feels more like noise than actual critique. People are judging it based on expectations it never promised to meet. It’s a slow-burn, character-driven story with a reserved male lead of course the emotions are subtle. Calling that “bad acting” just shows a misunderstanding of the role not a flaw in performance.
I heard the story was changed and re-written. And this is what they came up with? Just wondering, doesnt anyone…
I think calling this a “copy” of Princess Hours is a bit of a stretch. Princess Hours used a very classic trope royalty arranged marriage and a cold prince who slowly opens up. But those are not unique elements. They’re common storytelling devices that have been used in many dramas long before and after it. Perfect Crown may share a similar setup but similarity in tropes doesn’t equal copying. If that were the case almost every rom-com K-drama would be considered a copy of another. What actually matters is execution character development emotional depth pacing and how the story unfolds. Unless the scenes, character arcs, and narrative beats are directly replicated, it’s not fair to call it unoriginal or accuse it of “stealing ideas.” Also saying people are “blinded by idols” dismisses genuine viewers who simply enjoy the drama for what it is. People can recognize similarities and still appreciate a story’s unique elements. It’s okay not to like the drama but calling it a copy without stronger evidence feels more like an assumption than a fair critique.
It’s so frustrating to see many toxic LR shippers and IU haters repeatedly sabotaging the ratings with 1, 2…
I know right.... But let it be there are lots of shitty dramas with high MDL ratings.... This drama is buzzing all over the Ott platform and tv cable platform... That's speaks for itself... How long could they sabotage the ratings....
The rating is actually so surprising because there is NO way in hell this deserves an 8.5 😭 Like sure, people…
Here comes.... Was waiting for ya'll..... Don't be surprised cause lot of people like this, just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to act surprise in 8.5 rating.... For us this drama atleast deserves 9 or 9.1 .... It's all about personal preferences
Complaints about their chemistry and hate for this drama mainly comes from their previous show fans..... I won't say all but some..... So don't give them any attention... Their hate comments on twitter and MDL never gonna have any affect on this drama.

Critics are usually coming from haters so I assume them as a noise
