Ratings Race: Which Drama Came Out On Top?

Yesterday was an exciting day in kdrama land! We had two highly anticipated dramas make their big premiere. Song Hye Gyo and Jo In Sung made their comeback with SBS’s “That Winter, The Wind Blows,” while Lee Da Hae and Jang Hyuk partnered up once more for KBS’s “IRIS 2.” It was a pretty tight race for the ratings, with all three dramas securing double digit ratings.

 

The much hyped “IRIS 2” came out as the winner of the ratings race last night. According to AGB Nielsen, the action packed series recorded 14.4%. Choi Kang Hee and Joo Won’s romantic comedy, “Level 7 Civil Servant,” came in second with 12.7%.

 

“That Winter, The Wind Blows” gave fans a special treat by airing two episodes back to back. Both episodes achieved respectable double digit ratings with the pilot episode recording 11.3% and the second 12.8%.

 

 

“IRIS 2” story picks up three years after the death of Hyun Joon (Lee Byung Heon) in “IRIS 1.”

 

The plot will revolve around the mysterious surrounding Hyun Joon’s death and Baek San (Kim Young Chul), who had been arrested for being part of the secret organization, IRIS. The NSS agents, headed by Yoo Gun (Jang Hyuk), will struggle to fight against and expose IRIS, which has gotten larger and even more powerful than before.

 

“That Winter, The Wind Blows,” on the other hand, is a melodrama about a man and woman who don’t believe in love. Song Hye Kyo takes on the role of Oh Young, the sole heiress to a giant conglomerate. She lost both her parents and her eyesight, making her extremely self-protecting and lonely. Jo In Sung plays Oh Soo, a playboy and a gambler who lives a meaningless life. He sets his eyes on his next target, Oh Young, to repay an enormous amount of debt. While he approaches her for money, he ends up falling in love with her.

Noh Hyun Hee Confessed That a Popular Junior Actress Dissed Her Acting Career

Actress Noh Hyun Hee confessed that a junior actress dissed her acting career.

 

February 12, Noh Hyun Hee made a guest appearance on SBS’s variety talk show “Strong Heart” where she shared an episode regarding a younger actress.

 

She started, “My life was full of ups and downs along with my acting career. After debuting as a KBS TV personality, I took on roles where the characters were not respected by society. The various roles included the neighborhood idiot and a lady working at a bar.”

 

“Since the characters I had were unintelligent, I received quite a few scars as an actress,” Noh Hyun Hee continued. “A junior actress came to me and said, ‘I’m not going to take on dirty characters like you. You’re the representative dirty characters actress.’” She went on, “I remembered the saying that there are small actors, but no small roles.”

 

Many guests at the studio were surprised by such a comment and MC Shin Dong Yup, furious, commented, “Wow, that’s too much.” He asked, “By chance, is that person active right now? Is she a top star now?”

 

She replied, “At that time, she didn’t take on any ‘dirty’ characters and had some popularity. But, I don’t see her [on television] these days.”

 

MC Lee Dong Wook [who is also an actor] explained, “Senior junior relationship aside, that’s something you shouldn’t say as an actor.”

 

Soompiers, do you agree that “there are small actors, but no small roles”? Or does one taking on characters not respected by society downgrades the person’s credibility as an actor?
