Squad 38- Ma Dong Suk, Seo In Guk- first broadcast recorded at 1%.

Cable channel OCN's newest drama Squad 38 (38사기동대)- written by Han Dong Hoon and directed by PD Kim Jung Min has started its first 2 episodes broadcast and recorded ratings at 1%.


By far this is the lowest record rating for the cable channel as it was once counted based on its average viewership at 1.6% according to Nielsen Korea. Compared to other cable channels such as tVN's current drama My Dear Friends its ratings were 4-5% and jTBC's Mirror of the Witch ratings were at 2%.

Squad 38 airing times were later than other dramas. Somehow it didn't quite picked up as previous dramas.


The drama depicts the vicious life story on tax collectors from the City Hall whereby they have a hard time dealing with the rich tax evaders and a con-man steps in to help them out.
Veteran actor Ma Dong Duk takes the lead role as the day to day tax collector Baek Sung Il, Seo In Guk plays as the conman Yang Jung Do, while Girls' Generation Sooyoung plays as tax collector Sung Hee.
