I'll be honest here, the reviews this drama got put me off of it for a long time. It's my belief that The King: Eternal Monarch came out around the same time as The World of the Married and while The World of the Married was getting great ratings and reviews, The King: Eternal Monarch wasn't so I watched The World of the Married instead. Now, I know its all a matter of opinion but I found TWOTM to be absolutely atrocious and when I watched TKEM I found myself wondering why it got such bad reviews. I mean, sure, the effects are a bit substandard and the acting can be slightly stiff at times but I generally thought it had a good plot, satisfactory acting and compared to TWOTM was way better in terms of ending and sticking to one storyline. I understand that not everyone is going to like it but I do think people were bandwagonning and were just being unnecessarily harsh on the drama. At least its not the Cats movie.
