The connection b/w Mr queen characters to red sleeve is interesting...
The queen dowager in Mr. Queen is yisan's daughter in law and the king in mr.queen is yisan's half brother's grand son...

I guess some of the clips on social media gave some people the wrong idea that it's a fusion sageuk and when they see the drama, they get disappointed...

Me too... Also hands up... I also like 10 on 10...

Then we need to change the director for junho and seyoung's modern drama( expectations) and put the director of what's wrong with secretary kim or suspicious partner 😂😂

Talking about mr.queen, the queen dowager in Mr queen is yisan's daughter in law 😂

I never said being an ahjumma is a bad thing or degraded anyone's age... I simply used a korean term used for older woman to say that junho is like kyungsoo who has a lot of older women fans... You are over reacting...

The comment above me said that most of junho's fan meet tickets were bought by 40yr olds... That's why I said he is collecting ahjummas like d.o... you and me are just crazy fangirls 😂😂

Strong woman do bong soon, the fiery priest, welcome to Waikiki 1( same ML as Mr queen)

Then how come you are an ahjumma?

Mbc first under estimated red sleeve and messed up with the promotion and now it's milking the popularity as much as they can...

I also love junho and kyungsoo but I am same age as kyungsoo, so according to korean culture we can be friends and junho is oppa ..🤣🤣🤣

I also get her rejection and we get to see how her life was as a concubine... But some people just don't feel for the FL no matter what ..

so junho is gonna follow kyungsoo's path and be an ahjumma collector... lol

the drama seems to be doing well among all age groups in korea though... in most of the junho or junho-seyoung videos i see majority korean comments... i doubt older viewers will be making comments on youtube... junho definitely seems to have gained a lot of female fans... i also see a lot of korean videos based on red sleeve without any engsub...
i guess one other reason is the lack of explanation about a lot of things in the drama... one needs to know korean history to know some of the stuff... we in mdl did research while it was ongoing but there is a vast majority who just simply watch it without even knowing that its based on a novel or true story... for them a lot of things wont make sense or they will get confused... even in mdl we see a lot of people getting frustrated over deokim's continues rejection...

Why is this drama on the list of top airing dramas?

Not available on Netflix is a main reason... Our beloved summer is not as popular as red sleeve but it has more views on mdl simply because it's on Netflix
Then junho is a 2nd gen idea, so he don't have the kind of international fame like 3rd gen popular idols...
Se young also is not much of a crowd puller...
Some started watching this drama thinking it's like the usual rom-com fusion sageuk and didn't like the change in tone in the second half...
It don't have much that attracts younger kdrama international fans who mostly makes noise on social media...

The 2nd female lead looks way too matured than kim soo Hyun... Going by the comments i expected the worst from the FL, may be that's why I didn't find her as annoying as everyone else... Low expectations work sometimes... Like everyone i also miss the child actors... Almost all of the actors who played the younger version are so famous now...

It does have light comedy like homecha and run on but not down right comical like strong woman do bong soon or mr.queen..

I know but seeing actors in their 20s being romantic to 13-14yr old actresses is weird to watch... It was also weird when the princess who looked 10-11 screaming to get married to siwan's character...

An 18-19yr old guy going after a 13yr old child is weird...
