At the press conference for Joo Won�and Kim Tae Hee's SBS drama 'Yong Pal', reporters couldn't help but ask about the actor's last drama. 'Cantabile Tomorrow'�didn't have the best turnout of viewer ratings despite hype before the drama's airing.

About this, Joo Won remained positive as he replied, "I don't see that drama as a failure. Sometimes ratings don't come out, and sometimes they do. Actors and actresses tend to think of viewer ratings as sacred, so I think that's why [it was viewed as a failure]."

He added, "I definitely do not think of my last production as a failure because the ratings didn't come out. I think there's so much to receive from taking part in a drama. It's a drama that helped me grow."

It's good to see that Joo Won isn't tied down by viewer ratings. Sometimes a drama can be critically acclaimed but not have high ratings, or become a cult film. Although we do hope 'Yong Pal' has a better turnout for Joo Won!
