A popular male idol is receiving much criticism for his acting in the drama “Tomorrow”!!
What are your thoughts on his acting?
Marking the return of Korea’s beauty icon Kim Hee Sun, MBC’s new fantasy drama Tomorrow premiered to a promising rating of 7.6% nationwide, peaking at 15.52% in real time. However, in the latest episode 6, the ratings experienced a drastic drop and fell to only 2.7%. According to some viewers, Tomorrow is doing worse in terms of ratings partly due to the acting performance of the male lead, SF9’s Rowoon.

Although Rowoon received a lot of praise for his improved acting in Tomorrow, he also received many negative reviews from netizens especially Knet. Since Rowoon started out as an idol, viewers tend to be harsher on him because of prejudice against idol actors. Some viewers said that in addition to being handsome, Rowoon didn’t seem right for the character and that his role as Joon Woong felt awkward. Moreover, the fact that Rowoon has more screen time than actor Lee Soo Hyuk also annoyed some viewers. Acting aside, some people say they find Joon Woong an unpleasant and boring character, even though he’s the male lead.
In Tomorrow, Rowoon plays an intern Grim Reaper, the youngest member in a team of Grim Reapers whose job is to rescue people with suicidal attempts. Acting alongside more experienced actors, Rowoon’s performance is deemed lacking by a part of the audience. Do you think Rowoon’s acting in Tomorrow needs improvement?
I disagree that Rowoon’s acting is lacking…in fact I’m watching the show mainly because of actor Rowoon! He is and plays a very likeable character.
It’s just jealousy so it’s good people are being jealous of him
I really like tomorrow and all the characters for me personally fit their parts well.
I hope they make a series 2 and not listen to a few grumbling people. If they don’t like the show don’t watch it they have an off button and leave the rest of us to enjoy it.
I agree that most of the idols don’t act well buy rowoon is doing a good job..his acting is not bad at all considering. He is funny and good in dramatic scenes
most of the idols don’t act well but rowoon is doing a good job..his acting is not bad at all considering. He is funny and good in dramatic scenes
Why so much hate, every actors effort and dedication can we just appreciate it?. Rowoon is doing a great job.One of the best drama that gives a hope for every lost soul. keep up the good work to all the cast of tomorrow.
I Also Fell this is not a good fit for him….He has been excellent in another series on Netflix…he is very good looking with great talent but the main Grim Reaper Guy on the other Side is stealing the show!!!
Rowoon is playing his character well. His character is on a journey of developing from a newbie Grim Reaper to a seasoned once his role in the drama is to bring a fresh and open look at humans and what is needed to be a good Reaper. People should stop watching dramas to critique them but rather watch with to enjoy the drama and the hard-working actors working hard on their character development.
I think they mean the character not the acting…maybe some knetz don’t like his character –dense and slow but has a good sense of justice…you know people nowadays like exaggeration. When it comes to acting I think he’s doing well, especually in crying scenes, his eyes look sad too. Even without saying a single line, you can see the sadness through his eyes. However, some of them were right, Lee Soo hyuk is indeed stealing the show with his intimidating and charismatic aura. I mean Lee soo hyuk character as a grim reaper is cold, serious and strict– different from rowoon’s character. But there’s more episodes to go, if they want some heavy scenes for rowoon.
