It's hard to convey in words how grateful and grateful I am to Lee Min Ho! A year ago, I was in severe depression after the death of a loved one. By chance I saw the drama "Heirs" on the Internet and I was fascinated by this story, struck by Lee Min Ho's dramatic performance, his bright talent and charisma. After this drama, I tried to find out as much as possible about this actor, reviewed all the dramas and films with Lee Mi Ho's participation. They gave me back my interest and joy in life. And what a long-awaited and beloved gift for the drama "The King: Eternal Monarch"! I never cease to admire Lee Min Ho - an unusually talented and bright personality, a wonderful actor, an amazingly kind and sensitive person.
I can't imagine now how my life would have turned out, without this happy occasion and I am grateful to God for it!
p.s. Please forgive my bad English - I translate with a machine translator.

Thank you for sharing.  Lee Min Ho's dramas have healed a lot of viewers and brought them out of their sadness and pain and find peace and comfort.  He found that out and that made him very happy that he is helping fans be happy again.

I didn't talk specific a drama I said generally  but drama that your thought  isn't also accepted big hit in Korea , so many media play doesn't mean big hit .

 I think Big3 channels' reputation decrease while cable tv reputation rise, TVN rose in last 6-7 years and JTBC rose in last 3 years but KBS and most MBC drama rating drop so much , KBS's just one drama could surpass %10 in this year MBC's dramas can't surpass even 7% , these channels drama surpassed 30% rating 10 years ago and TVN's dramas got 0% rating 8-9 years ago and everyone became WOW when a drama surpass 3% rating .Currently TVN and viewers wait at least 5% rating for dramas. If a hallyu star act in they wait at least 10% rating.

Haha, yes, I mentioned that "specific TvN drama which got average single digit ratings" but was praised everywhere and nobody mentioned about its low ratings, because TKEM often got dragged by that specific drama fans.

I was late to the party, but I still could find old articles on how the medias dragged down TKEM & LMH, and that "specific drama fans" also dragged TKEM in social media. Things they did was illogical and using double standards. I don't engage with wars, just an observer, but I couldn't help but feeling sad because I love TKEM and LMH so much. 

 

I am happy to read newer articles now mentioning TKEM successes and significance, based on Studio Dragon profits, streaming platform data, also from Google data. Even though its kinda late, TKEM and LMH finally got the recognitions they deserved! 

LMH also got > 8 million new Instagram followers after TKEM, this is huge achievement and it proved his success and TKEM success, naysayers and haters should just shut it up.

@JoannaID, data collection methods used by social media analytics are only surveys & interviews. Google Trends data & Stream analytics are for me unbiased samples. Google is one of the largest keepers of big data.

 

I work in marketing field for an internet startup company, current company and previous companies used paid social media analytics tools like Socialbaker, Hootsuite and Buzzsumo to measure the companies' product/brand performance against competitors in social media. I am not sure how these analytic tools collect their data, but this is the standard practice in the industry that I am in. 

Not sure if K-actors also use these kind of tools to measure their popularity in social media, LOL. The easiest way as an outsider to check on social media data is just by tracking the followers numbers and growth, also engagement rate for their posts.

@JoannaID, so, I'm sure you're also familiar with Sprout Social & Hubspot. The cross-channel social media analytics makes sprout social an easy choice for #1 for me. Whether you want to dive deep into your performance on a single network, or quickly compare results across multiple networks at once, Sprout has you covered. They collect their data by tracking Facebook Page impressions, tally up Twitter link clicks, measure Instagram follower growth, evaluate LinkedIn engagement, asses content performance on Pinterest. Sprout comes complete with both templated and customizable reporting options, meaning you have multiple ways to not only gather essential social metrics, but truly understand what they mean and present them to others including only the metrics you care about most. From tags to trends and everything in between, Sprout can put powerful analytics at your fingertips. Buzzsumo?  Although not strictly a social tool, but, if you want to see how many shares your latest blog post received on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest, BuzzSumo at least can provide you with that data. Hahaha - it's not the actor himself who measures his popularity in SNS BUT, some management companies are doing this for their A-list talents.

I am talking aboout Korea ,International and Korean viewers have different taste , If so many article and praise worked well , their rating should rise but even though so many media play and praise its rating couldn't rise just stay 5% (this is so low rating for Hallyu ) but K media worked so hard criticise to King + KES's long Knang Shin Jae story+ PD problem+ PPL all of them worked to drop King I mean Korea waits high rating from TVN currently,because this channel's reputation rose in late years, for example lately I watch Secret Forest because I liked S1 BUT S2 make disappointed in Korea and (+ me too)  actually rating is better than S1 but stayed 6-7% so many people critise rating and story because they waited better (+ cast aren't Hallyu) 

 

Film of the Week: Gangnam Blues (Korea, 2015) is a completely fascinating film

In the 1970s the land of Gangnam in Korea was nothing more than bare stretches of impoverished farmland, a stark contrast to the busy high-society city that it is today less than 50 years later. Gangnam Blues, or Gangnam 1970, is set amongst this era of political corruption and gang wars as we follow our protagonists through the struggles of life and the beginnings of real estate developments that are covered in blood.

Our protagonists are two sworn brothers who grew up together in an orphanage- Jong-dae (Lee Minho) and Yong-gi (Kim Raewon). We are introduced to the two brothers who scrape by a living by collecting trash and live in a nearby shantytown, cold and dirty. Through the forces of progression their house is torn down and they soon have little choice but to accept an offer for a quick job with the local gang. The job is to cause chaos at a political demonstration, but during this mayhem the two are separated and each return on a different bus with a different gang. Three years later the two brothers are deep within the worlds of their respective gangs, embroiled in political corruption and plots for real estate development.

LMH should come out more so we can see him. I wish he were spotted by Minoz. He should do some interview, vLIVE, IG updates, ...

we don’t have anything to look forward to except IG updates which are not enough.

Thanks @leeminhosny - this is insightful, so even doing media play won't take up the TV ratings in Korea. Yes, I read tvN already had many hit dramas with Hallyu stars such as CLOY which was able to reach >20% and Goblin as well. So objectively, we can say that now the standard for tvN drama with Hallyu star is double digit ratings, bellow that number is low.

I thought long time Minoz would already accustomed with this drought (no news, no activity, whatsoever), but can't help still feeling anxious right. Haha.

 

While we are still waiting, there's this new poll that we can participate, vote for LMH here:

Min afternoon....

the wait for new project is awfully painful. Just a suggestion to keep us going. In the paid minoz zone, there is a 'To LMH' section where fans could send him letters/messages. thinking maybe we could send him a group letter with the title ' love from soompi minoz' or something catchy ...?   there's no mention of max word limit, they allow photo upload as well. The content is kept private, only the subject title is visible to other minoz in the paid area. 

 

not sure how we could run this...any suggestions from anyone?  tagging our leader @CarolynH. once we have the message i can post it using my account. 

Anyone have any questions or comments that we can weave into a letter?

*******************

Tomorrow round 5 of the LOTBS quiz!

************

New event--maybe

Let's help LMH by writing a drama for him!  Instead of crying, let's have some fun!  Chose one of the drama ideas and run with it--or start a new one!

 

1.  Working title:  The long as short of it

General synopsis:  each episode a new mystery for the leads to solve; ML solves them although FL believes that she is the one who solves the mysteries; little by little, FL learns that ML actually is very capable; romance?

Writers/PDs/basically everything:  Soompi Minoz

Genre:  Mystery/Comedy:

Character Descriptions:  ML-Clark Kent in looks, blk rimmed glass, slightly hunched, slightly goofy.  Jr detective; takes a back seat to sr sunbae, runs after her a lot. Little do people know that he is really the brains. FL:  sr sunbae short in stature, the take charge partner, secretly enjoys ML tagging after her.

 

 

2.  Working title:  New beginnings 

General synopsis:  FL becomes a stalker

Writers/PDs/basically everything:  Soompi Minoz

Genre:  Mystery /suspense:   MLsingle widowed father told by friends that he needs to start dating; his late wife would want him to be happy.  FL:  introduced in a later episode-beautiful, intelligent seemingly everything a man could want; should she be widowed also?-husband died under mysterious circumstances perhaps--progressively obsessed with ML

Yes he doesn't act in drama quickly but he had CF events, fan meetings, on abroad magazine shooting, airport pic, other event etc. we could see him but now he didn't anything in 3 month because of Covid , but I waited at least magazine and interview I can't understand why he didn't ? Waiting really is annoying.
