The Korean drama "River Where The Moon Rises" has been facing a crisis in the past week after its main actor Ji Soo stepped down from filming due to the bullying and school violence accusations thrown at him.

Fans have praised all the actors due to their resilience. The character "On Dal" formerly played by Ji Soo, is now played by actor Na In Woo.

The first episode with the new actor, which is episode 7, has gotten a lot of positive reactions from the netizens. Episode 7 has been the highest rating episode of "River Where The Moon Rises" since its release.

The viewers were enamored by Na In Woo's acting and clear dictation event though the actor was cast in haste. Netizens have commented that In Woo fits so well with "On Dal," and that his voice is excellent, and lastly, his acting is superb.

Fans are hoping that the drama's popularity will continue to soar and will receive good ratings. The sudden change of cast can be devastating to a series.

Ji Soo has dropped all of his public appearances since the bullying accusations surface. There is no word from him or his talent agency addressing the allegations. The incident is still under investigation, and no solid verdict has been passed on this matter.

Fans of Ji Soo are hoping that he will be cleared off of these accusations, and he can continue acting.
