Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 Ep. 3 ratings FALL to LOWEST yet but likely to RISE with next episode

Michelle Topham May 14, 2023

K-drama Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938, Ep. 3 sees substantial fall in Seoul

Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938, Episode 3 ratings fell last night to the supernatural drama’s lowest yet both nationwide and in Seoul.

In Seoul, the drama saw a substantial drop from its previous episode, while nationwide the fall in ratings was substantial but not quite as severe.

In Seoul, Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938, Episode 3 ratings fell from its previous episode of 8.30 percent to last night’s 5.80 percent.

That is a full 2.5 percent drop in the percentage of viewers watching the Lee Dong Wook-led drama compared to its previous episode.

Nationwide, according to Nielsen Korea, that drop was a lower 1.89 percent, from Episode 2’s rating of 7.12 percent to last night’s 5.23 percent.

Of course, Saturday evenings are often the one night of the week where drama’s fall in the ratings due to it being the night many people spend with family and friends outside the house having fun.

Those same people than catch up on the episode via a streaming service the day after. In the case of Tale of the Nine-Tailed, via TVING.

That means, with the popularity and ratings of Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 so far, it is very likely the drama’s ratings will rise again with its fourth episode airing later on today.

Where to watch Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938?

Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 stars Lee Dong Wook, Kim So Yeon, Kim Bum, and Ryu Kyung Soo.

The 12-episode drama is airing on tvN in South Korea every Saturday and Sunday evening at 21:20 (KST).

And yes the drama is a scheduled 12 episodes meaning it can be completed faster than a typical 16-18 episode show.

If you are in Korea and miss a specific episode, you can catch up via TVING who streams the drama around the same time as it airs on tvN.

Outside Korea, options are far more limited, with only Amazon Prime Video streaming the series in some regions.

RELATED: Ratings for second episode of Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 are even HIGHER than first episode
