Meanwhile, other netizens quickly responded with comments such as:

So, in the end, they reached the 1% mark. Even scarier is that there are still so many episodes left, so this might not even be their worst rating. There are 16 episodes in all.

No one of them can act.

At some point, I watched the replay, and in short, it was just boring… Someone said that Kim Sejeong's acting is too "I'm acting how I'm going to act now," so I just changed the channel.

For SBS's Friday-Saturday show to reach 1%.. hul..

No matter what she does, Kim Sejeong reminds me of Hyeri. I only see her as Kim Sejeong.

Before we can say we can trust Kim Sejeong, we have to say that her acting in all of her works is too similar and she has no charms in this one.

Can we stop making Japanese remakes? ㅋ It doesn't fit with our country, and we've seen cases like this many times. Why are we still making remakes?

The first drama was good, but this one doesn't have the same feel.

I watched the replay, but it seems like they are trying to make us feel sad, so I changed the channel.

I always say this about remakes: If you're going to do it, please do it right. Please also choose the work that needs to be fixed. The original work isn't even that well-known, and it's just a simple drama about healing, so what gives? There are too many holes in the story. The conversations are also boring. The plot doesn't make sense. The characters don't have any charm. I couldn't watch more than episode 4. The actors aren't guilty, but the writer needs to calm down and get a grip on things… I'm really, really sad.

What are your thoughts on the post?

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
