• What Netizens Say About "Today's Webtoon" Extremely Low Viewership Ratings Despite Having Kim Sejeong

    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.

  • Former S.E.S Shoo brings her twin daughters to a night market and reveals emotional story: “I once sold clothes just to get by”

    Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

    On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

    The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

    Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

    Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

    Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

    Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

    Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
