The story took a different turn.

The pilot shows of King The Land, which stars Yoona of Girls' Generation and Lee Jun Ho of 2PM, just came out.

At first, people who watched episode one didn't like it. Many people thought it was silly and said the writing was like old plays.

People said that the story was out of date and that the plot was just a bunch of old ideas.

Even though the story got off to a bad start, it seems to be getting better. Between the first and second shows, ratings have gone up by a lot.

Nielsen Korea said that 7.5% of paid households in the whole country watched the second show. On June 18, 2023, the show aired. This is a 2.4% rise from the first episode's rating of 5.1%.

As people have had time to think about the drama since the second episode, the reaction has recently changed. A lot of people like the show!

"All of the shows my mom watches do well. The show is fun for my parents."

"So many people said bad things about it, but I guess it's fun. Congrats."

"It reminds me of old romantic comedies. It's cool. Both Lee Jun Ho and Yoona are cute and smart. It's a good light story to watch."

"Even if it's beaten to death, the numbers prove it."

"It seems like an old-fashioned, cliched story like kimchi stew. You can watch it in comfort."

"It looks like fun since the numbers are going up. The first episode was criticized, but the second episode is different. I thought I saw people saying bad things about it in posts that were good about it, but it seems to have become more famous."

"I thought it would be successful. The things in it are funny and easy to watch."

"I didn't like how much it was getting criticized, but judging by how well it's doing in the polls, everything is fine now."

"It is so cliched and silly, but some people watch it because of that."

In King The Land, Yoona plays a hotel owner named Cheon Sarang who has a cute smile. She gets into the famous King Group Hotel and becomes involved with Gu Won (Junho), the hotel's owner. Gu Won does not like fake smiles.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
