Lee Min Jung’s long awaited return to television with OK! Let's Get Divorced is struggling in the ratings, with the drama remaining below 1% as it enters its second half.
The KBS Drama and GTV series, starring Lee Min Jung and Kim Ji Suk, premiered on August 19 with a nationwide rating of 0.4%, according to Nielsen Korea.
Ratings later fell into the 0.2% to 0.3% range. Episode 8, which aired on September 10, recorded 0.2% nationwide, matching the drama’s lowest figure so far.
The result has drawn attention because OK! Let's Get Divorced marks Lee Min Jung’s first television drama in six years. Her previous TV drama was the 2020 KBS2 weekend series Once Again.
The 12 episode drama follows a married couple who run a wedding dress shop as they consider ending their exhausted marriage. Lee Min Jung plays Baek Mi Young opposite Kim Ji Suk.
The drama had already faced difficulties before reaching viewers. Filming reportedly wrapped in March 2025, but scheduling issues delayed its broadcast. It eventually premiered through KBS Drama and GTV rather than one of Korea’s major terrestrial channels, which may also affect its potential audience reach.
Lee Min Jung previously experienced another delayed release with TVING’s Villains. That project was postponed for an extended period following circumstances surrounding cast member Kwak Do Won before eventually being released in December 2025.
With OK! Let's Get Divorced now well into its 12 episode run, attention is on whether Lee Min Jung’s comeback drama can reverse its ratings trend during the remaining episodes.
