Amid the constant praise from viewers and netizens, Song Joong Ki's new drama "Reborn Rich" is being heavily criticized by international audiences.
Despite the intriguing plot and roster of the talented cast, the web novel-based drama is accused of disrespecting Istanbul.
Did Song Joong Ki's 'Reborn Rich' Disrespect Istanbul?
The third episode hints at a possible loveline between the characters but viewers expressed that the show doesn't need a love story and would be great if they will focus on Jin Do Joon's revenge against Soonyang Group.
Moreover, others pointed out that it would only ruin the drama's flow given that the love story between the two was not included in the original story.
Despite the criticism, Song Joong Ki's new drama is being raved about by viewers for its cast lineup and interesting scenes.
After scoring the second highest premiere ratings in JTBC history this 2022, "Reborn Rich" jumped to having a double-digit rating on its third episode, showing the drama's reign in primetime.
