Actor Moon Sang-min received a passing score for "Roco Grand Prince" by inducing excitement from his first appearance.
Moon Sang-min, who plays the main character Lee Yeol in the KBS 2TV Saturday miniseries "My Dear Bandit," which premiered on the 3rd, made a strong impression on the small screen with his unique visuals and fresh energy from his first appearance.
In the play, Lee Yeol seems to be looking for a leisurely fun, but in reality, he is a person who lives with his real abilities hidden in order to protect his people. Moon Sang-min convincingly expressed the character by portraying the inner side of Lee Yeol, who has solitude and wounds, with deep eyes and delicate emotional acting.

In particular, it is evaluated that from the first episode, he skillfully expressed the hardness and flexibility of the character and immediately increased the immersion of the play. On top of that, he clearly imprinted the presence of the next generation of romance Nam-joo by capturing the image of a pure fighter who goes straight without hiding his heart toward Hong Eun-jo (Nam Ji-hyun).
The external synchro rate is also well received. The character's charm has been doubled by boasting unique visuals that match the setting of a royal family with a bright figure and natural dignity. Moon Sang-min even pulled off the hanbok with a perfect fit, and showed an exciting height difference with Hong Eun-jo, stimulating viewers' excitement.

The second episode of "My Dear Bandit," which announced the start of the romance between the two main characters Nam Ji-hyun and Moon Sang-min across the excitement and tension, started off well with a 4.5% nationwide and up to 5.2% per minute viewership based on Nielsen Korea. The third episode of "My Dear Bandit" will air on KBS 2TV at 9:20 p.m. on the 10th.
