장혁 장나라 주연의 MBC 새 수목미니시리즈 ‘운명처럼 널 사랑해’가 6.6% 시청률로 출발했다.

3일 시청률 조사회사 닐슨코리아에 따르면 2일 방송한 ‘운명처럼 널 사랑해’ 첫회는 6.6%의 전국일일시청률을 기록했다

이는 전작인 ‘개과천선’ 최종회 시청률 8.1%보다 1.5%P 하락한 수치다.

‘운명처럼 널 사랑해’는 대대손손 30대를 넘지 못해 손이 귀한 전주 이씨 9대 독자 이건(장혁 분)과 허드렛일의 달인이자 존재감 없는 평범녀 김미영(장나라 분)이 뜻하지 않은 하룻밤으로 임신이라는 후 폭풍을 만나면서 벌어지는 코믹 로맨스 드라마다.

특히 장혁과 장나라는 ‘명랑소녀 성공기’ 이후 12년 만에 로맨틱 코미디물에서 재회해 관심을 끌고 있다.

동시간대 방송된 SBS ‘너희들은 포위됐다’가 10.7%로 수목극 시청률 1위를 지켰고 KBS2 ‘조선 총잡이’는 8.0%를 기록했다. (onlinenews@heraldcorp.com)

Jang Na-ra, Jang Hyuk starring in 'Fated to Love You'

Actress Jang Na-ra looks exactly the same as 12 years ago, actor Jang Hyuk said in a press conference for MBC’s new rom-com drama “Fated to Love You” in Yeouido, Seoul, on Monday.

This is the second time for the two Jangs to costar in the same romantic comedy. Back in 2002, the two played lovers in another MBC rom-com series, “Successful Story of a Bright Girl.”

“I feel comfortable about working with her. Her face looks the same as back in those days (in 2002) with a strong sense of familiarity,” Jang Hyuk said, stressing that “working on this drama has been extremely fun and delightful.”

Jang Hyuk also recalled that he did not get to talk to the baby-faced actress 12 years ago. “In those days, we did not have the time to chat because we had to act in too many scenes (in a short period of time.)”

“Fated to Love You” portrays the romantic love story of a highly unlikely couple -- the only heir of a conglomerate owner family and an ordinary girl who comes out of nowhere.

Jang Hyuk plays Lee Gun, a stuck-up aristocrat who has been indulged by his business tycoon family all his life. One day, the heir happens to impregnate a virtual nobody, Kim Mi-young, played by Jang Na-ra, plunging him into a labyrinth of romantic difficulties.

The first episode of the Wednesday-Thursday rom-com airs on July 2 at 10 p.m.
