KBS TV2`s epic drama `Emperor of the Sea` has been setting viewer ratings records for several days in a row. TNS Media Korea, a viewer ratings research company, said `Emperor of the Sea` recorded ratings of 25.0 percent on Dec. 23, up 2 percentage points from 23.0 percent recorded on Dec. 22. Tired of trendy and superficial dramas that are rampant these days, viewers highly credit this epic drama with its intense and profound storyline. The breathtaking action scenes of climbing rugged precipices and being buried alive seem to be holding viewers in thrall, especially since the news that Choi Su-jong got injured on Dec. 23 while shooting another action scene was reported. With his superb acting, Choi Su-jong dispelled fears that he is not the right actor to play Jangbogo. The fans of this drama have even made up a nickname for Choi, who plays a gladiator, dubbing him `Gladi Choi.` |
