Other netizens commented in response expressing their disappointment:

"I'm on episode 2, but I don't think this show is for me.."

"I watched it because the plot is intriguing, but I don't know, maybe it's the cast? I frequently find myself cringing."

"Clearly enjoyable, but I find the plot too difficult to followㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ".

Meanwhile, others also added in opinions like:

"Finally, a drama with Yoona that hits big"

" I kinda feel like this is Lee Jong-suk's top drama yet?? Lee Jong-suk appears so much and he's so good"

"I anticipated that the plot of this drama would be darker and heavier, but the plot is actually quite contrived and the acting is lighthearted(?). I found myself even laughing out loud. It resembles a 'noir' rendition of Penthouse."

"It's f*cking fun. The pace is super fast but the flow is also intuitive. The scenes are refreshing and Lee Jong-suk's acting is seriously daebak. I lose track of time while watching it. Even though the genre is noir, the plot is light and entertaining."

"The second episode was the best, the third felt forced, and I'm curious to see what they'll do with the fourth.",

"It's actually so enjoyableㅠㅠㅠ"

"It will continue to rise because it's so enjoyable.".

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
