It turns out that it is impossible to mix plugins Gradle block and apply plugin Gradle clauses in case of Kotlin compiler subplugins. So you need to move serialization plugin to plugins block, like this:

──────────────────────────────────────────────
modified: app/build.gradle
──────────────────────────────────────────────
@ build.gradle:3 @
 plugins {
     id 'kotlin-multiplatform' version '1.3.0'
+    id 'kotlinx-serialization' version '1.3.0'
 }
 repositories {
     maven { url "https://kotlin.bintray.com/kotlin/kotlinx" }
@ build.gradle:15 @ repositories {
 }
 apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
 apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
-apply plugin: 'kotlinx-serialization'

 android {
     compileSdkVersion 28
──────────────────────────────────────────────
modified: build.gradle
──────────────────────────────────────────────
@ build.gradle:10 @ buildscript {
     }
     dependencies {
         classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
-        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:1.3.0"

     }
 }
 repositories {
──────────────────────────────────────────────
modified: settings.gradle
──────────────────────────────────────────────
@ settings.gradle:7 @ pluginManagement {
             if (requested.id.id == "kotlin-multiplatform") {
                 useModule("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:${requested.version}")
             }
+            if (requested.id.id == "kotlinx-serialization") {
+                useModule("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:${requested.version}")
+            }
         }
     }
 }

I’ll try to update general README on this soon.
