@anonymous 12:24pm Worry not. HJ is a popular star. No doubt about this. I don't think the poor ratings will have much effect on his popularity. The drama may have received a low rating on its pilot episode but this is not HJ's fault. There's a whole team behind a drama: actors, writers, director, producers. I don't see a problem with the cast. I think the burden should be on the writers and director. They should make sure that there's substance in the scripts to allow leader to showcase his acting skills. HJ did not really have much 'airtime' in the 1st epi. HJ may be affected by the poor ratings but knowing him, I think it will drive him to even work harder. But hopefully he will be mindful of his health as he seems to be losing weight already. Moreover, he knows his fans are right behind him.. always supporting him. He'll take this as a challenge and I can see him winning in the end. Let's all be there for him.

Great!!! Ive been a TFS user for quite sometime. With KHJ representing the brand, it gives me another reason to patronize their products:)
