Korean Drama 'From Today, I'm Human' Struggles with Low Ratings Despite Star Kim Hye-yoon's Return

The SBS drama 'From Today, I'm Human,' starring actress Kim Hye-yoon, is facing challenges with ratings stuck in the 2% range. This marks Kim Hye-yoon's return to television after a 1 year and 8-month hiatus.

Ahead of the 7th episode airing on the 6th, the production team released stills featuring Eun-ho (played by Kim Hye-yoon) and Kang Si-yeol (played by Lomon) embarking on a good deeds project for Pal Mi-ho (played by Lee Si-woo). The drama has maintained a 2% viewership rating for two consecutive weeks.

In the previous episode, Pal Mi-ho proposed a plan to revert Eun-ho back to a gumiho and alter the fates of Kang Si-yeol and Hyun Woo-seok (played by Jang Dong-joo). The plan involved Pal Mi-ho becoming a gumiho and swapping destinies with Eun-ho, who would then restore Kang Si-yeol to his original state. To achieve this, Pal Mi-ho needed to accumulate more spiritual power to become a gumiho. Although Eun-ho initially opposed Pal Mi-ho becoming human due to the tragic fate of another gumiho, she eventually reconsidered, recalling his last words, "I lived my life."

The newly released photos show Eun-ho and Kang Si-yeol doing laundry together under the warm sunlight, creating a romantic movie-like scene. However, Eun-ho's expression suggests reluctance, as if she's been given an unwanted task. In reality, they are volunteering to accumulate good deeds on behalf of Pal Mi-ho. Eun-ho, who avoided both good and bad deeds as a gumiho, is now making efforts to change, raising curiosity about whether her actions will help Pal Mi-ho become a gumiho.

Another photo captures Eun-ho with a frightened expression, drawing attention. The presence of an elderly man with a menacing gaze approaching Eun-ho adds to the intrigue. In a previous teaser, this man recognized Eun-ho and accused her, saying, "It's all because of you!" What connection does he have with Eun-ho?

The production team stated, "The mysterious collaboration between Eun-ho, Kang Si-yeol, and Pal Mi-ho has begun. Watch to see if they can discover the true good deeds needed for Pal Mi-ho to gain spiritual power and how Eun-ho and Kang Si-yeol's romance deepens as the story progresses."

Episode 7 of 'From Today, I'm Human' airs tonight at 9:50 PM.
