[08.06.24][news] Overwhelming response causes temporary downtime on SCW messageboard

On 24 June, the Strongest Chil Woo messageboard experienced temporary downtime due to overwhelming responses from local and overseas viewers.

As a member of Shinhwa, and also active as an actor, Mun Jung Hyuk is hugely popular in Korea and also overseas territories such as Japan, Thailand, China, Taiwan and other Asian countries. The immense amount of support shown to Mun Jung Hyuk and to Strongest Chil Woo was the cause of the temporary downtime.

A staff member said, "The downtime was caused by fans from Taiwan, China, Japan and other countries logging on at the same time."

Episode 3 of the drama was aired on 23 June, and the messageboard was filled with praises and good reviews of his performance in the episode.

The ratings battle is raging on for Mon/Tue dramas on all 3 stations. According to TNS Media Korea, ratings for 23 June were 16.4% for SBS drama Gourmet, 11.6% for MBC drama When Night Comes and 10.5% for Strongest Chil Woo.
