Early viewer ratings of SBS 'The Haunted Palace,' starring Yook Sungjae and Kim Jiyeon

 

'The Haunted Palace' is a fantasy rom-com about a shaman named Yeori, who rejects her fate as a spirit medium, and a mythical serpent named Kang Cheol, who is trapped in the body of Yeori's first love, Yoon Gap, as they encounter a tall ghost filled with resentment towards the royal family and entangled in a battle for physical possession. 

theqoo

-Wow… The ratings are really high.

-I want to watch this, but I can’t watch scary things...

-This is one of the dramas I'm enjoying watching these days. It seems to have a solid base of regular viewers.

-It's really fun, but the ghosts are too scary. I fell asleep while watching it and I had nightmaresㅠㅠ

-It's seriously so fun. I think the acting skills are pretty good too.

-It's a good drama. I hope there will be more Korean-style fantasy dramas like this in the future.

-I can't watch it live because of the ghosts. So I just watch the reruns instead.

-The acting skills are fine. I just think the plot is a bit lacking.

-My dad's friend's kid wrote the script, so I'm kinda forced to watch this drama. My parents said the story is a bit difficult for them to understandㅎㅎ

-It's super fun!!! It's the best drama I have ever watched since 'The Devil Judge.' I've been rewatching the reruns over and overㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm waiting for the whole drama to finish so I can binge-watch it all in once... I've only watched up to episode 3 so farㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-My mom’s watching this too.

-The directing is a bit disappointing, but the plot is so interesting that I continue to watch it.

-It seems to be the type of historical drama that older people like. Judging from this post, the viewer ratings are higher than other weekend dramas, but it doesn't get much mentions.

-The acting skills are okay, but the plot is a little bit difficult to understandㅋㅋㅋ But the ratings are actually very steady.

The Golden Spoon official page still-cuts feedback

 

It was actually this picture

But they changed it to this

+

Their official page now

They deleted the still-cut of the male lead character

They deleted the first picture

There's only 1 picture on the official page

There were originally 10 pictures there

Their official page yesterday

Their official page today

theqoo

-Why are they deleting perfectly fine pictures?? They call this a feedback?

-What's happening? The male lead character is involved in a controversy?

-Are they picking on a fight with the viewers?

-I don't watch this drama, but we all know that the reason why it gets quite high viewer ratings is mostly because of Yook Sungjae. But why are they doing this? I have never seen a production team treating their lead character like this?

-Okay, I get it if you want to pick a fight. But why are you involving an innocent actor here?

-Why are they treating Yook Sungjae like that? I have never seen a lead character getting treated this poorlyㄷ ㄷㄷ

-I guess age is just a number after allㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is so freaking childish. Is this some kind of revenge or what?

-What did the lead character do wrong... Why are his pictures getting deleted from the drama's homepage?

-They're seriously taking it this far?

-They're deleting the lead character's pictures?? For real???

-?? What are they doing? Is this their way to vent their anger?? Are they out of their mind?

-Are they trying to start a fight??

Yook Sungjae and Yeonwoo's kiss scene is more vulgar than expected

They don't have a love-line in this drama, she's not the female lead character. The kiss was impulsive, therefore it looks sloppy and rushed.

Yes, they are BTOB's Yook Sungjae and Momoland's ex member Yeonwoo

theqoo

-Even on the neck...?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It looks vulgar but... it also looks awkwardㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Hul... That was Yeonwoo??

-I didn't expect him to throw her on the bed. I was really shocked when I saw this sceneㅋㅋ

-It looks adorable because the two of them look really stiffㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It looks awkwardㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What...? I thought the lead characters were Yook Sungjae and Jung Chaeyeon?? Why is he kissing Yeonwoo??

-The kiss scene doesn't look sexy at all because they look awkward...

-Yook Sungjae still looks adorable to meㅋㅋㅋ That's why I don't find this kiss scene sexy

-Sungjae's neck and ears are really red. It's so cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I feel like I shouldn't have watched this scene...

-I can't bring myself to watch this scene because I'm a Kpop fanㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm not their fans, but I feel like I know them... So I can't watch itㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Isn't that a bed scene at this point?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

What I feel after watching Yook Sungjae's acting

 I want to see him act as sociopath or psychopath. I want to see him act as lunatic. I think he would freaking suit that well. I want to see him as the villain. 

pann

[+283][-53]

1. [+44][-6] I was so freaking surprised when he laughs like a psychopath. I want to see him acting as a real psychopath character. 

2. [+40][-3] The ending scene of yesterday's episode was legendary

3. [+37][-1] Are you insane, human? I feel like I'm going to lose my mind because of The Golden Spoon

4. [+34][-6] So f*cking handsome

5. [+26][-1] Both his acting skill and his visual are absolutely crazy... I really love the drama. I think he would totally nail the character of a psychopath, too.

-Lee Joonyoung is a fine actor, too. Is he not considered an idol because he joined UKISS a little bit late?? A lot of people don't know he's actually an idol.

The idol who films a movie in the military

BTOB Yook Sungjae

It's the video that the Official Korean Army released as their collaboration with SPAO to celebrate Armed Forces Day

Yook Sungjae makes an appearance and also narrates the video

Why does he look so good in the military...?

Why is he filming a movie there...?

Last one, Private Yook answering the telephone

pann

[+455][-19]

1. [+98][-2] Isn't this a cut from a real movie...? Isn't his visual driving you crazy...?

2. [+92][-2] He's so f*cking handsomeㅜㅜ

3. [+83][-1] This is a scene from a movie...

4. [+60][-0] I'm saying this just in case there are some people who say, 'There's no fandoms who talk military service as much as you guys do'...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's our first time seeing our baby's face in 4 months, beside The National Liberation Day of Koreaㅠㅠ It's also our first time seeing him actually move. We are proud to see him filming a CF, movie-like video in the military. There are a lot of members in the group who are currently serving in the military^^ If you think it's not a big deal, please imagine spending 4 months without seeing your idol despite the fact that they're not in a hiatusㅠㅠ

5. [+48][-0] Compared to himself 5 years ago, his face has gotten so much more distinctive and he looks like an actor nowㅋㅋㅋ He was really young here

6. [+44][-0] His jawline, his arms... Wow...

7. [+42][-0] The Official Korean Army is making really good use of our boysㅋㅋ People who don't know may think he's just filming a CF, they probably have no idea that he's an active-duty soldierㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+39][-0] The Official Korean Army changed their pick from Changseob to Sungjaeㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm so f*cking proud of BTOB

9. [+37][-0] A well-off family, flawless visual, proven singing and acting skills, stable company (Even though there's a lot of fans who ask him to leave Cube, there's not a lot of entertainment companies that are as good as Cube), and he will only be 27 once he gets discharged from the military... His name is Yook Sungjae.

10. [+37][-0] Smiling... Yook Sungjae... is... breath-taking... Keep this in mind
