Kim Sejeong and Nam Yoon Soo's "Today's Webtoon" on SBS is not gaining as much attention as anticipated.

The sixth episode of "Today's Webtoon" on SBS, which aired on August 13th, received an average national rating of 2.8%, according to Nielsen Korea.

This is not only the lowest rating for the drama, but also the lowest rating for a Friday-Saturday drama produced by SBS since February 2015.

"Today's Webtoon" is declining in popularity despite the fact that Kim Sejeong, who became a "reliable actor" after achieving success in OCN's "The Uncanny Counter" and SBS's "Business Proposal", plays the major part.

On August 20, a post about Today's Webtoon began trending on TheQoo's community board under the title, "SBS Friday-Saturday Drama On The Verge To Hit 1%".

The netizen then listed the following ratings from Episode 1 to 8:

Nationwide / Metropolitan Area

Ep.1 4.1 / 4.0 ?️Best
Ep.2 3.1 / 3.0
Ep.3 3.6 / 3.6
Ep.4 3.1 / 3.6
Ep.5 3.4 / 3.7
Ep.6 2.8 / ???
Ep.7 2.5 / ???
Ep.8 2.2 / ??? ?Lowest

The netizen added, "It seems that the drama is not getting enough support from the original fans".

Meanwhile, other netizens quickly responded with comments such as:

It's really boring ㅠㅠ.

The acting… Is not that really good.

The story is interesting, but the actors don't stand out.

It's fun, but the main male character is such a bad actor… I have no idea what he wants to say ㅠ I need subtitles.

It's boring, the characters aren't very interesting, and neither is the acting.

I thought this would be a home run because Kim Sejeong's last drama was a big hit.

They really can't match the style of the original work.

I can't watch the male lead or female lead act because it makes me cringe.

I can't watch Kim Sejeong for very long because her acting is so fake.

I'm not trying to say anything good about the Japanese version, but it's so dull.

They made a new version based on the Japanese one and probably thought it would do well, but it's so stupid that I hope they stop….

It's boring as hell

They all act the same, which is boring.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
