"Crazy Love" starring Kim Jae Wook and f(x)'s Krystal grapples with achieving solid viewership ratings.

Released on March 7, the rom-com series is the newest Monday and Tuesday night K-drama of KBS. Unfortunately, despite the unique storyline and team-up with lead stars, it failed to score soaring viewerships.

According to Nielsen Korea, "Crazy Love" episode 3 garnered an average nationwide rating of 1.9 percent, hitting its lowest rating yet.

While its contenders SBS's "A Business Proposal," which stars Ahn Hyo Seop and Kim Se Jeong, as well as tvN's "Military Prosecutor Doberman," continue to beat their personal best.

To recall, Kim Jae Wook and Krystal's new drama achieved a nationwide rating of 3.4 percent for its pilot episode. It showed a significant increase on the second episode after landing an average nationwide rating of 2.4 percent.

'Crazy Love': A Different Take on Revenge Romance Drama

From the looks of it, the KBS series looks like another boss and employee type of romance, but it is more than that.

The drama describes "Crazy Love" as a "battle between crazy people."

Helmed by "My Fellow Citizens" director Kim Jung Hyun, it follows the story of CEO No Go Jin, played by Kim Jae Wook and his secretary Lee Shin Ah, portrayed by the f(x) member.

In the Monday and Tuesday K-drama, No Go Jin is worshiped by his students and considered as the most popular mathematics instructor in the education field.

Despite failing to attend college, he managed to build his own name and launch his company GOTOP Education due to his extreme intelligence. However, behind his almost perfect image, not to mention being successful, good-looking, and brilliant, he is described by his employees as narcissistic.

Interestingly, joining the duo is Ha Joon as GOTOP Education vice president Oh Se Gi. His primary objective is to comfort their employees who have been terrorized by the money-obsessed Noh Go Jin.
