Full disclosure, I watched the first episode of Kokdu: Season of Deity three weeks ago and HATED it. Like, I went in with optimistic expectations and was supremely underwhelmed by the set up and put off by the bad editing. So if the drama got better I wasn’t around to see it but the ratings have definitely taken an road downhill. This Saturday’s episode 6 brought in a new low 1.9% and even with tempered expectations that’s really really low. Most of the online discussions blame the writing but some still think casting Kim Jung Hyun in his first drama post scandal also played a role in the underwhelming reception.
