On the other hand, with the unfolding of the story, the love in the heart and tears of Lee Gak and Park Ha are firmly grasping the heart of audience.

But after episode 11 was aired, all worry is dispelled. The disappearing foreshadow hint, the mobile phone, reappears. Lee Gak begins to resolve the secret of missing of Yong Tae Yong. Lee Gak investigates the person who is suspicious in the missing of Yong Tae Yong, Yong Tae Mu (Lee Tae Sung) and coerces him.
On the other hand, the gang of Crown Prince learns the reason that they time traveled 300 years to come to present, and gets the conclusion on how to return to Joseon Dynasty. The wedding of Lee Gak and Hong Se Na (Jung Yoo Mi) also quickly unfolded.
Such core events made audience unable to move away their eyes from TV. Because unwilling of part with attracted the vision. At the same time, the feelings for each others between Lee Gak and Park Ha become even deeper, unable to part with, and the sad twos unable to avoid from the love. The two persons who deliberately try to ignore also aroused the tears and pity of viewers.
But, at the end of broadcast, Park Ha rushes into the fire to save Lee Gak disregarding own safety, raising viewers’ expectation on their love line. Making the viewers unable to escape from the tense atmosphere is the unique ability of “Rooftop Prince” that resurrects the broadcast.

Han Ji Min saved Park Yoochun’s life while he faced an emergency situation by giving him CPR.
In May 18 broadcast of SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama Rooftop Prince, Park Ha (Han Ji Min) was seen giving Lee Gak (Yong Tae Yong/ Park Yoochun) CPR when he had difficulty in breathing.
He had difficulty in breathing because he ate crab at the party held in the rooftop house.
As he was under Yong Tae Moo’s suspicion, Lee Gak ate crab even though he had crab allergy. He got out of the rooftop house and showed a tormented expression when he experienced difficulty in breathing.
Park Ha gave Lee Gak CPR as a form of first aid. At that moment, Hong Sae Na (Jung Yoo Mi) came back and saw them, hence causing misunderstanding. It developed a peculiar love triangle among the three of them.
Meanwhile, in that broadcast, the scene where Lee Gak, who bought the rooftop house, told Park Ha to know her limitations evoked laughter.

The persistent ill of the Korean miniseries having to broadcast almost as live in the later half of the series is been duplicated in Rooftop Prince. The problem is script that comes too late.
An official of the drama said on April 12th, 2012, “The script for 9th episode of Rooftop Prince hasn’t come out yet. Screenplay writer Lee Hee Myung is working alone on most of the script, hence situation like this occurs. The shooting is divided into team A, B, C, but the lead actors have many scenes together, so it’s not entirely satisfactory.”
As for the cancellation of originally planned back-to-back episode 7 and 8 broadcast on the night after election on April 12th, 2012, it’s due to insufficient footage been filmed.
Another official said, “Occupying the top spot of Wednesday and Thursday drama, the atmosphere on the filming set is great, but it’s a fact that everyone is suffering from tight filming schedule. In order not to disappoint viewers, is working very hard in filming. The actors including Park Yoochun, Han Ji Min and Jung Yoo Mi cooperate really well and work in harmony.”
The decision to make Rooftop Prince was made in December 2011 after twists and turns. But Lee Seung Gi and Ha Ji Won couldn’t revived the MBC’s The King 2 Hearts, allowing Rooftop Prince to claim the top spot in viewership ratings among all dramas broadcast at the same spot, and follow up the victory with hot pursuit.
SBS at one time was scheduled to broadcast Korean Peninsula, although PD Shin Yoon Seob of SBS Productions was confirmed as the director, it was canceled and replaced with Rooftop Prince.

The acting potential of JYJ member Park Yoochun breaks out. The acting performance of Park Yoochun who is starring in SBS drama series Rooftop Prince has been praised by audience continuously. Park Yoochun is playing the role of Lee Gak, who is the crown prince of Joseon Dynasty 300 years ago. Lee Gak uses ancient tone and voice and modern tone to speak at different occasions, which is very interesting.
In front of Park Ha and 3 confidants whom he get along with easily, he uses a majestic tone of crown prince, but in front of other people, because of he has to live with the identity of Yong Tae Yong of modern times, he has to abandon ‘the tone of the king’ and speak ‘Seoul language,’ which is very funny, similar to the plot of countryman strives to speak Seoul language in Gag Concert. Not only in the tone, the comedy acting of Park Yoochun is also surprising, who perfect performed the ‘crown prince from Joseon Dynasty.’
Unknowing that he has come to modern times, he goes to Donhwamun Gate of Changdeokgung palace to shout, “Quickly open the door,” and is chased away by the police, he gobbles when tasting the omelet rice for the first time at the home of Park Ha (Han Ji Min), and sucks in the Yakult in one breath as he likes the sweet food, all these scenes have constantly stimulating the audience who burst into laughing. However, Park Yoohun also demonstrates the romantic love acting skills, increasing the tension of the drama.
After seeing the reincarnation of crown princess, Se Na (Jung Yoo Mi), he makes effort to make her to become his woman again. He buys the bracelet preferred by Park Ha to give to Se Na as surprise gift and other ‘Joseon version of proposing’ is shaking the heart of Se Na.
In addition, in order to retain Park Ha who is preparing to go to United States, he buys the painting of tropical beach for Park Ha who loves tropical beach and coconut trees. He stops the bus to airport, and tells Park Ha in the bus, “Now there is tropical bus, it’s unnecessary to go to such faraway place,” and pulls the hand of Park Ha to alight from the bus. These courageous scenes have been portrayed perfectly.
Through Rooftop Prince, Park Yoochun’s acting has been getting a lot of love and praises at the same time. Park Yoochun who has accumulated internal strength of acting skills through the dramas ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’ and ‘Miss Ripley’ displays the higher level of acting skills, attracting the attention of audience. He who the acting been re-appraised through Rooftop Prince is impressive.
