He can be freed from his curse only when that girl will say “I love you” to him for being who he is. So he tried to seduce her with her money and job because she lost her job after being involved with Do Jin-woo’s case.
Orders:
Kokdu is following Han Gye-jeol’s orders it might be because he promised her mother while taking to her afterlife that he will listen to her daughter and fulfill her wishes. He also helped her in doing hospital work later he ordered Gaksin to be her nurse.
Han Gye-jeol’s Wish:
Han Gye-jeol once said to Kokdu “please disappear” and he was about to disappear. One day she was in the hospital with Kokdu and they need a doctor to save a patient so she shouted “come back Do Jin-woo doctor” and he came back from the afterlife. Now he was smart enough to figure out things and he decides to be with her to keep himself safe. But Kokdu’s people told him that he will not able to live in that body after 49 days of death.

But the chairman’s person saw all this and warn him about this situation he also figured out that Kokdu cannot resist her orders. So they planned accordingly and Han Han Gye-jeol ordered him not to go near Chairman.

Overall Thoughts on Kokdu: Season of Deity Korean Drama
I like the acting of Kim Jung-hyun he has done a great job. There are many fun elements in the drama like Kokdu following the orders of Han Gye-Joel and acting like a small child, the relationship between Han Gye-Joel and her brother, and the fights between Lee Eung-chul and Seo Bok-gyeong. They both were not only fun elements in the drama but they put life into the drama they were so good.
To find out what happens to Kokdu? Did he able to turn into a human? To find answers like that please watch the drama I know you guys will love it.
signing off this drama with a quote….
“The darkness that cannot be driven out even by the brightest light. The despair that cannot be overcome even with strong hope. The evil that even the greatest good cannot handle. That’s me. And I know that. That is why I never even hoped for a faint ray of light, but it is nice to have it.”
