YoonA and Junho's 'King the Land' faced much criticism after the premiere.
On June 17th, JTBC's new rom-com drama series 'King the Land' premiered. But many viewers expressed their disappointment following the first episode of the series. Despite the impressive cast, many viewers have found the drama to be behind the times as the show portrayed the hotelier profession in an outdated stereotypical way.
Some of the comments are: "The script was written in such a bad fashion it felt like I was watching an early '00s cliched rom-com."
"This show felt like the writer just boiled down all the problematic parts of the earlier dramas in '00s."
"I hoped it to be a fun twist on a cliched plot but it definitely was not what I expected."
"As someone who works at a hotel, I was pissed."
"I only liked the scene where the two met. The writer did not do a good job."
"I haven't seen this bad of a drama in a long time so it was refreshing in that sense."
"I got a feeling that I was watching a show 20 years ago in a higher resolution."
Meanwhile, 'King the Land' tells the story of Goo Won (played by Junho) who is the heir of a luxury hotel conglomerate, who was thrown into an inheritance war, and Cheon Sa Rang (played by YoonA), a hotelier who always has a smile on her face till she meets Goo Won.
