After watching Choi Jin Hyuk as a second lead in so many dramas, seeing him finally as a lead in a romantic comedy was SO satisfying. Same with Song Ha Yoon! I had only seen her Fight My Way, and felt like she got shafted in that. This coupling was all I could ask for -- cute, sexy and that height difference!!!

They were pretty much the only thing I liked about this drama. The supporting cast members weren't strong enough in my opinion. (Although I'll give a shout out to the adorable and supportive family dynamic Gi Beum's family had). And don't get me started on the story. Starting from episode 12, I just fast forwarded to the couple scenes.

Although majority of these type of dramas are not my cup of tea I decided to watch this after seeing a clip of it. Although the first episode was one of the most messed up first episodes I have ever seen (WTF did I just watch moments) it is a nice sweet romance drama to watch. The leads have very good chemistry and I found the story to be interesting. The way they used memory loss and comedy was very creative despite the fact its a Cliché drama. The height difference between the leads did seem to bother me sometimes especially with the kissing scenes it looks awkward but yet still convincing and effective. Overall I would give it a 7/10. I thought about giving it a higher score but I believe 7 is a good score for this drama. The reason why I have it a 7 is because it is above average (5) but just doesn't hit the higher marks.

Cliche overload

It's all here, "explosive indigestion" risk, meet cute, car accident, amnesia, wrist grabs from multiple angles, mean matriarch doesn't like girl, sobbing, childhood trauma flashbacks,sobbing, awkward lobby encounters where everyone stares (but really they just look bored), sobbing, a few hospital scenes, sobbing, character goes away without telling people, sobbing, left behinds mope around, sobbing, memories coming back, more sobbing. All of it crammed into every episode with repetition set on 10. It's no wonder they couldn't fit anything else like say, actual story telling. I like a good stupid drama...but this was not it.

Happy ending healing magic saved me from depression

I found this drama by chance. Episode 1 might have been the best episode I have ever watched. It was surreal. I loved the element of being in a foreign country, their encounter and story in that span of one day. It caused me so much stress, frustration, sadness and anger after the tragedy. I couldn't drop it and had to watch how it goes in the end and wow that ending was happy. I didn't think I'd feel satisfied and so much more. The smiles, the love and happiness. That cute dance hahahaha. I'm okay now.

Average story but awesome romance delivered by leads.

I am a sucker for good romance and heart-fluttering chemistry.
And I got everything I want in this romance drama.
There is an amazing chemistry between leads, a cute second lead couple, comedy relief among seriousness and a really really good bromance (Ma seong and Yang woo jin, also Ma seong & Ki joon)

I am a fan of Jin hyuk so I may get blind sighted saying that he was really perfect as Ma seong. It's like he is really Ma seong and you feel for him, his troubles, his fight. But only Jin hyuk can pull off such average story drama into an amazing one. He becomes flawless while portraying the character. I want to watch him again & again.

About Ha yoon, she was enjoyable too. She was cute and charming at the same time. She was the best choice as Ma seong's Ki beum. loved their chemistry.

Ho ya & Joo yeon were cute together. served good as Complimentary second couple.

Songs are enjoyable and i kept humming some to myself.

I may rewatch this again, maybe many times. Coz for me, it is hard to see heart-fluttering romance in recent dramas. and this one delivered Awesome.

?❤️❤️?. Just say yes. This was a major game change for me. The female leads acting has shown how diverse she is. Amazing series. The synopsis is not that accurate. It’s not completely wrong however it is not 100% right. The series revolves around two people that meet and fall in love but due to an event their lives change. I won’t say to much but it’s worth the watch.
This series was such a delight. I absolutely loved it. It was heartwarming, romantic, sweet and at times a tearjerker but I still love it. The sincerity of the cast in their acting and the script itself was too good. The female lead is one that I have loved watching over time max she did not disappoint. For me this was my first time seeing her perform in this role as a sentimental and touching as this. The male lead did not disappoint either. I plan to watch this again.



Great chemistry ?
Great acting ?
Action ?
Mystery ?
Romance ?
Plotting ?
Karma ?
Tear jerker moments ?
Satisfying ending ?


Loved it.

Somewhat frustrating

First things first : If you love romance, I think this drama is worth your time. It was sweet and I liked both the ML and FL as well as the secondary love story. I think the chemistry between the characters were very believable and there was 5% more skinship than in most kdrama's. So, all in all this could have easily been a 10 for me.

Now for the rant.

1. The ML
I adored the ML in the first episode and never saw that version of him again. Was he a good romantic lead? Mostly. But I can't help but feel a little disappointed in what was lost.

The ML also made some very illogical decisions in spite of being a genius. His actions and decisions was often the opposite of what any normal person would do. It was frustrating and made no sense.

2. The story line
There were loose ends galore in this story. Ironically the least evil person in the story was punished and the truly evil people just walked away. We are expected to be okay with this? Having horrible people walk around freely and without facing the consequences of their crimes was a truly ridiculous decision made by the writers. Why?

It also feels like the writers wrote themselves into a corner and then decided "Screw it" and just jumped to the next scene without even giving the appearance of logic. You know soap operas end with someone being stabbed and then the next episode they miraculously weren't stabbed somehow? It was like that.

I don't watch kdramas thinking they will change my life and I don't expect (or want) perfect logic and realism. In this story it just seemed a bit worse than usual.

In conclusion, I don't feel cheated out of 16 hours of my life. I'm not mad that I watched it and I enjoyed it despite it's flaws. I did however enjoy the first three quarters of the first episode more than the 15.25 episodes that followed.

A must watch for Choi Jin Hyuk fans

I finished Devlish Joy last night and it is now probably the only other show I'll rewatch (I rewatched Legend of the Blue Sea once already) because there is so much more out there, but this one was so swoon worthy that I could watch it again.

I'm a big fan of Choi Jin Hyuk but he always seems to be cast as the sidecar in romantic comedies, and never gets the girl. I don't understand why, because in this he was super-flirty, in an adult way as opposed to a teenager way, that gave me butterflies every episode. Everything about him was just gorgeous; the hairstyle, the way his suits are tailored to show the great shape of his back, so many smiles and adult kisses. I want more like this!

I could go on and on but let me just say that as a 55 year old woman, Devlish Joy had me twitterpated like I was 12 years old swooning over my Sting and David Bowie posters. If I ever am in cardiac arrest just put this on and my heart will flutter back to life on its own.

The story has all the tropes: amnesia, evil mom, love rival/parallelogram, weak girl gets strong, loyal friends, poor family tempted by money. Story wasn't as good as others of this type, but Choi Jin Hyuk more than makes up for it. You'll be hooked in the first 10 min, and by the first 30 min when your stomach drops you will be worried that it's going to be ruined but it's ok, keep watching.

One character that surprised me the most was the FL's dad, who starts out a drunk and ends up as the most romantic of the bunch. Even the annoying cousin grows on you. Just watch it already!

This is a drama full of cliché and non-sense situations.. Anyway it was an enjoyable show.. I dont know why people compare it to Strong Woman Do Bong (I personally find Strong Woman the most boring and embarassing drama I ever watched).

Devilish Joy was enjoyable, poetic and still funny.. Besides the hottiness of Choi Jin Hyuk, I really appreciate the filming, the impressive scenography, the semplicity of the female lead..
The rest of the cast sometimes was boring but I could not give less than 9/10.

Esquecivel

Você com certeteza já viu muito disto em outros dramas. Sorte travessa nada mais é de uma compilação de cliches retirados de outros dramas, o que torna tudo muito previsivel. Vou confessar que nos 5 primeiros episódios eu até gostei mais depois foi tudo ladeira abaixo.

Achei que a comédia cansativa, um roteiro desanimado, o romance foi fofo porém acho que depois de alguns episódios perdeu o brilho, o protagonista masculino não me convenceu no seu papel achei que ele estava distante , várias vezes senti ele robotizado o que atrapalhou muito o deselvolvimento e a quimica do romance . A protagonista feminina fez seu melhor nada memorável.

Os personagens secundários eram cansativos , estavam ali só para ocupar espaço, não adicinaram nada ao drama que carecia tanto disto. Deus como aquele primo do protagonista foi desnecessário , suas ações pareciam de um pré- adolescente , digo isso para ser generosa.

A fotografia me agradou achei bem bonita porem a ost passou despercebida por mim. Na realidade tudo neste drama é bem esquecivel, então realmente meu amigo não recomendo isso para você.

This is a great drama! The storyline is well developed and the lead actors have great chemistry. The story has everything from hateful antagonists to comicality to a beautiful romance that was displayed with such ease and realism that it became believable. The leading couple has great chemistry and their acting is quite natural. Although it has some heartbreaking moments, this drama is heartwarming and fun to watch. Enjoy it! *Watch episode 16 all the way till the end, great medley of characters coming together!

I wasn't expecting to rate this highly (spoilers at the end of the review)

I haven't written a review for anything in a while but since I was so surprised and touched by this drama, I felt as though I should express why.

Before I start a kdrama, I always read the spoiler-free reviews and comments to see if it's going to be something I like. I almost didn't watch Devilish Joy because of this.

Story: yes, this drama is jam-packed with cliches but they were executed well (or perfectly imo) most of the time. I also typically stay away from the 'amnesia' and 'misunderstanding' tags, which might be why I'm so shocked that they didn't put me off the story this time round. I think it's because of how these themes and plot points were handled. I read another review that mentioned how everything that happened was very "convenient" and this is completely true. However, I think it depends on your perspective while watching. 운명(unmyeong) or fate/destiny is a major theme throughout the story; their first meeting, his accident, the flowers, meeting again, and everything that follows. Despite the obstacles, they always find each other. The story is romantic, cute, frustrating at times, melancholic, funny, and wholesome. The villains had roles that were good at moving the plot forward, the side characters were all charming in their own ways, the pacing was pretty great imo, the chemistry between both couples were great, kisses were fantastic (ahh), and I loved the ending. I didn't even fast-forward any scenes which I have gotten into the habit of doing if I get bored.

Cast/Acting: I think most of the actors performed great. Obviously it wasn't perfect but there was nothing too specific to complain about. The FL was a huge standout for me, she executed all the scenes and emotions perfectly. I found the ML's crying scenes a little awkward but he did great otherwise. And they had fantastic chemistry, they had some of the best kisses I've seen.

Music: nothing incredible but the soundtrack was pretty great and memorable. I think the music was very scene-appropriate too which is important.

Final Spoiler-free Thoughts: Give this a try! I really enjoyed the roller coaster that this drama was and I don't think it deserves all the intense negativity! Honestly, as the drama went on, I loved it more and got more invested. I really think it's worth the watch. I don't give high ratings out easily! I also want to say that I felt wholy satisfied by the end and that rarely happens for me.

**SPOILERS ahead**

What I loved specifically:
- The pacing really was perfect for my tastes. We got a passionate kiss in the first episode (which was fine because of the whole losing his memory thing after) and then the follow episodes were paced so we'll which how their relationship progressed. They officially start dating in like episode 9 I think, which is over half way.
- The kisses between the leads were so intimate and natural, I loved them so much.
- The second couple were also very cute and I think they had perfect pacing as a second couple. Because their relationship progressed later than the main leads, it keeps the romance viewers still engaged even after the main couple gets together.
- How Ki Joon resolved his feelings for his first love/crush before confessing (and committing) to Ha Im. I really appreciated that they did this so it didn't feel like Ha Im was just a consolation prize.
- Gi Bbeum's family! 🥺 They were so supportive, eccentric and wholesome.
- Secretary Yang! Ahhh I was basically in love with him by the end of the drama.
- How they interwove the flower throughout the story, and the same with their time spent in China where they met. It's incorperated well and I love how they were there in both the pilot and finale. The juxtaposition was beautiful.
- The finale as a whole! I'm very pickup when it comes to endings. I need to feel satisfied. Devilish Joy did that for me. The entire 70 minutes were spent perfectly on closing the story. Usually, I hate time skips when they're 1 year+ but they executed it so well here and it made sense too. They didn't just jump from the ML's disappearance to a year later. They showed all the goodbyes and him leaving; one week later when Gi Bbeum comes back from her trip to find out he's gone; the next few weeks of heartbreak and worry; Ma Seong in China at all the places they met, savoring his memories with Gi Bbeum before they hide; Gi Bbeum receiving the letter he sent her from China; her going to China as a last attempt to find him; another letter and her acceptance; then it finally skips a year. Not too much has changed, which is realistic, but some things have and subplots have been tied up nicely. Then it shows Ma Seong and how he's been living the last year and the progress he's made. His reunion with Ki Joon had me crying. Then finally, after all of this closure, we get his reunion with Gi Bbeum.
- I love that his brain wasn't magically healed. I was really expecting them to just have him back to normal at the end, but that's not the case at all. He still forgets everything every day and is working (positively) toward remembering more and more slowly.
- I love that they emphasised that he hasn't 'lost' his memories, he just struggles with recalling them but they're still in there
- FOURTH WEDDING because he couldn't remember the others. This was so cute and funny 😭😅 it was refreshing too
- The curtain call at the end with all the cast was adorable!!!!
- One more thing. It's a quote that made me laugh so hard "don't mouth off at my woman ever again. I have a yellow belt in taekwondo." 😂😂😂😂😂🥺😂😂😂😂 please, Ki Joon was hilarious.

What I didn't like:
- How the ML spoke to the FL half the time from episode 2 until like episode 6. He came across a little unsympathetic and critical in regards to her situation. I just feel like he could have been a bit more outwardly understanding but then again, I guess it was more realistic that he didn't understand how she felt.
- The fake 'rain'. You could really tell it wasn't real and it bothered me immensely to the point where it would take me out of the scene (and the rain scenes were pretty emotional so...)
- How obvious they were about covering the ML character's tattoo after the first couple episodes just because it would have been a lot of effort to apply the fake tattoo before every single scene (which I understand but it did take me out of the story sometimes)
