Best performance of Jun Ji Hyun

First two episodes are kind of a bit
boring, i used fast forward few times. The actor who is playing sang tae stand out , he is really good.

I want to rate it 11/10 . One of Lee Min Ho's best performances, he was so good . I miss him in action genre

Try watching in kiss Asian

One of my two favourites korean movies of all time! I absolutely loved it

No I love it

I'm excited

If anything he is criminally under appreciated

Missing my Lee Gon, my sweetest cinnamon roll who is only second to Heo Joon Jae

How wass Lee was arrogant or tsundere ?!

The rescue scene is my favorite too.

This drama is gold, my all time favorite! It's the drama where i liked and could connect to almost every character. Heirs has a very special place in my heart.

If they didnt sing up for season 2 i would have given it a solid 8/10 but it's 7.5 because there will be a second season . I got bored sometimes, I had no problem skipping some scenes either but I enjoyed watching it. It's drama to pass time with, it's worth a watch but i won't rewatch it.

Backstreet rookie

I've never said that tkem was better than cloy. You can read my previous comments. I mentioned cloy for the sake of comparison , cloy is a recent hit drama which I've seen and enjoyed. Are you Christopher Nolan or Martin Scorsese that it would be important for me to convince you it's a masterpiece? You liking or disliking tkem won't change that it's one of the dramas that I enjoyed the most.I never tried to force my liking on you. I didn't even mention why I like tkem , how tkem fascinated me. If my goal was to convince you then I would be taking about how great tkem is which I didn't. From the very beginning my argument was about tkem being popular and not about tkem being heavily acclaimed. Didn't i already said that I'm aware a good number of people wasn't fond of tkem?Since i can't count all the fan edits of riri and leeeul couple i think it's best if i don't say there are more leeeul edit but I've seen more leeeul edit. The same koreaboo praised bsr's ratings saying ratings are almost as high as tkem's as . You should read comments of the pinkvilla article . Also if majority of the viewers didn't like tkem then no way on hell it would beat cloy in a poll with nearly 500 k vote in a major web portal. Now let's talk about mdl comment section. Among nearly 10 k comments a few users each has written hundreds of comments and a 8.1 ratings means favorable ratings. Tkem is already a hit in Netflix. Here's a list of countries where tkem trended, I prefer to start with Latin America:
1. Bolivia
2. Chile
3. Colombia
4. Costa Rica
5. Dominican Republic
6. Haiti
7. Honduras

11. Ecuador
12. El Salvador
13. Peru
14. Paraguay
15. Panama
16. Trinidad and Tobago
17. Jamaica
18. Mexico; 18 out of 34 is majority, case closed . Now let's move to Asia:
19.South Korea
20.Japan
21.Thailand
22.Taiwan
23.Singapore
24. Philippines
25. Hong Kong
26. Vietnam
27. Malaysia
28. Indonesia
Indian sub continent (yes , yes I know Indian sub continent is in Asia but since k drama isn't a thing here i chose to list down these countries differently):
29. India
30. Bangladesh
31. Nepal
32. Srilank
33. Maldives
Gulf countries (again I know they're in asia):

47. Romania
In case you misunderstand again I'm hereby clarifying by hit Netflix series i didn't mean a hit of narcos, elite of money heist's level. Comparing to other k dramas in Netflix, it's not only a hit rather a super hit.Tkem has ranked in 47 countries so far, can you name a k drama that comes close? I guess you already know tkem aired on three platforms in Korea, sbs rantings solely doesn't give the whole picture. Now i would like to talk about sbs rantings. Tkem's ratings were above average and quite good, if you think I'm making things up then please kindly check ratings of kbs and mbc dramas that aired this year and please note that none of mbc or kbs drama was on Netflix and they've way lower ratings than tkem. Dr romantic 2 is the only drama of public network that has sky high ratings(I'm omitting beautiful love wonderful life and once again if you're curious why then just Google these two and I'm pretty sure you'll understand why) ,please note it was not in Netflix. Tv ratings for public network is decreasing I guess you won't disagree.Tkem ranked at 1 on wavve for 9 consecutive weeks. Tkem did well in korea however not of that caliber that was expected . As a single country of course south korea (excluding China) has more viewers of k drama but the countries I've listed under Asia together has more viewers than korea. Now I've to throw some light to the fact that tkem not only topped those asian countries but did well in other countries. Now if I'm obsessed with tkem then what are you? Honestly answer how many comments you've written here ? Who spends more time here commenting you or me?

I guess the discussion was about the popularity and people who liked this drama but well you obviously needed to call me obsessive and took it to personal level. Insecure much? Aren't you the one who's obsessed? So you came to the conclusion I hated cloy. Hmmm interesting. Have I said cloy is overrated? Have I said cloy doesn't deserve the fame? If you take your time to check my watchlist you'll see I rated cloy 8.5 ,surely I hated it that's why I rated it high, eh? Go to you tube and take your time to see all the fan edits of LeeEul. Now Wikipedia says Latin America has 20 countries and 14 dependencies, so who's correct you or Wikipedia?
It's been months now since cloy ended right?

Even though tkem just finished airing then it was the only k drama on the list.

Ummm but people really didn't like tkem, yeah sure.
https://n.news.naver.com/mnews/article/003/0009906735?sid=101
Let me add that in the previous quarter studio dragon had cloy but oh well they made more profit with tkem.
You can say you don't like it, but you can't speak for all.

What scandal are you referring to? As much as I know he's not a big deal in Korea, I'll say Kim Yoo Jung is bigger than JCW in Korea but a scandal? I don't think there's any, if there was I must have heard something.

Swoon interview obviously solely doesn't reflect marketing of a drama, I bought that up for an example. Sbs did shitty promotion for tkem. No poster making video, no script reading. It's my first time seeing a drama getting neither. And Netflix hasn't done much either. Of course you can deny all you want. You claim most people don't like it yet where people can upvote comments (soompi) positive comments are at the top, what does it mean? People who like this drama out number those who don't.

All right let's go popularity doesn't mean loved, popularity means viewed, if popularity was same as liked then then love shot should be more loved than tempo .Tempo is better liked than love shot but well definitely love shot is more popular. Do you really don't know that LeeEul/MinEun is hot in sns? Just go to you tube you'll even find videos shiwinhuof how LMH and Kge are fated to be together by using tarrot cards. May be you really don't know that LeeEul shippers are the most annoying one these days . I don't know the exact numbers of countries in Latin America but tkem topped Netflix chart in Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador , El Salvador, Paraguay , Dominican Republic, Haiti, Panama, Honduras, well it's fair to say it ranked in most Latin countries. Netflix India has around 2 million subscribe. Also I didn't say India only, I referred to indian sub continent since tkem didn't only rank in India but ranked high in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka too. I guess I'm not saying it clearly but tkem isn't a drama that has been viewed by only typical viewers of k drama it's been watched by many more ,those who're not into k drama. Cloy got better review but popularity,? Big no. Cloy is more popular in Korea and Japan but outside it's clearly tkem. Also I'm not certain but LeeEul shippers are very likely to out number RiRi shippers.

Tkem is more popular than cloy among international fans, it ranked in countries where cloy didn't make the cut. I mentioned comments for not indicating that it's a good drama, I mentioned comments as a reference to many people talking about this drama compared to other dramas. And I would like to disagree with tkem having crazy promotion by Netflix and Sbs. Where other dramas get lots of interviews and exclusive contents by the swoon tkem got two only. Imo sbs promoted backstreet rookie better than tkem, like tkem didn't even get script reading and poster making videos. Also comments on mdl don't reflect the views of majority of the viewers of tkem. People who use mdl are people who watches k drama usually. But tkem isn't watched by typical k drama viewers only, it successfully grabbed viewers in Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Indian subcontinent . People from those territory liked this drama . But you can't expect to find this people in websites like mdl
