A fateful reunion stuns Kim Jung-hyun in Kokdu: Season of Deity


MBC’s fantasy romance Kokdu: Season of Deity (previously Kkokdu’s Season) has just released another teaser, giving us a peek at our hero’s tragic history and introducing us to our central cast of characters. From the looks of it, we can expect lots of hilarity, banter, and the requisite meet-cute between our leads Kim Jung-hyun (Mr. Queen) and Im Soo-hyang (Doctor Lawyer).

But first, the latest teaser opens with a glimpse of the past. Seemingly alone in a barren wasteland, Kokdu (Kim Jung-hyun) stares blankly into the distance, as he narrates in voiceover that he’ll do anything it takes to reunite with the love of his life. As penance for his sins, Kokdu is subject to a freezing blizzard.

That takes us to the present, where our heroine Han Gye-jeol (Im Soo-hyang) conveniently slips and falls right into Kokdu’s arms. Except Kokdu isn’t your regular rom-com hero, since he’s a grim reaper who eliminates evil people. In an amusing scene, we see the half-gods played by Kim In-kwon (Cleaning Up) and Cha Chung-hwa (Why Her?) kneeling before Kokdu in penitence.

Despite his stoic efficiency in getting rid of bad guys, though, Kokdu is still very much affected by his past. Overcome by emotion, Kokdu calls Gye-jeol by a name that isn’t hers, demanding to know if she’s the person from his past.

That isn’t the only conflict they’ll face — though thankfully, the rest are of a more lighthearted nature. Gye-jeol’s bubbly optimism runs counter to everything a grim reaper is supposed to stand for, giving us a grumpy and grumbling Kokdu. Still, he listens to all her instructions anyway, stirring ingredients and carrying suitcases for her despite his endless complaints.

Rounding out the main cast are Ahn Woo-yeon (Young Lady and Gentleman) as Gye-jeol’s brother Han Cheol, and Dasom (Dramaworld) as Gye-jeol’s haughty co-worker Tae Jung-won.

Directed by Baek Soo-chan (Alice) and Kim Ji-hoon (Please Check Out The Event), with scripts written by Kang Yi-heon and Heo Joon-woo (Less Than Evil), Kokdu: Season of Deity is slated to air on January 27 on MBC.
