My Demon (2023)

Gu Won is Pretty Do Hee's Perfect Demon!!!

I stayed up all night on the west coast to watch the 1st episode that aired at 6:30am PST!
Contain Spoiler!!!
When it comes to visuals I think this is Song Kang's best look in a K-Drama, his intro
scene was mind blowing with him walking in a long black hood cape (200 years ago) where he visited
a catholic place of worship, he placed his 5 fingers in a bowl of water to create flower petals then it formed
a stem of rose which he used to ignite his powers. After, the camera went closeup (4:34 mins) capturing a profile
shot of his head/face which was so beautiful and all I'm thinking if a devil can look so pretty I would
be fooled easily if I don't focus on his intentions lol. I was melting away in the early morning, The way his hair
was styled very textured with the hair dangled on his forehead which appear like a wet look, His under eyes had
a soft reddish look which made him look even more mysterious in a provocative and appealing way.
No other Demon character has outshined Song Kang as Gu Won!!!

Kim Yoo Jung looks very gorgeous as Do Do Hee and she fits the role as FL with Song Kang as ML.
Do Hee character is a rich girl princess like and she plays her role very well. I really could not get
enough of the beauty. So while it's fresh on my head I want to write a little review that this Drama
Series looks promising and the preview for Ep2 look like a lot of fun parts.

Jung Koo Won bargains with humans and at the 10 years deadline they die and go to a spiritual realm
then come back to work for him. On the same day in 2023, Jung Koo Won reserved a restaurant to eat alone,
Instead, Do Do Hee's adopted mother's fixed up a blind date for her that got mixed up with the restaurant
and that was how she met Gu Won. Later in the episode an incident happened where someone tried to
kill Do Do Hee and Gu Won was looking for his prey and went to save Do Do Hee from the attacker.
But first Do Do Hee need to make a deal with Gu Won. They both fell in the water escaping the attacker
where his powers were transferred to Do Hee under water. That was where Ep1 ended and will find out how
things will unfold for the beautiful Demon and pretty Do Hee. I hope Jung Koo Won gets back his powers lol.
It will be fun to see Gu Won powerless around Do Hee as well.

I couldn't help but notice the great quality of the editing and VFX so seamlessly done along with the beautiful
cinematography that captured the scenes beautifully and you can tell this was a very high budget Drama to make.

I recommend to give it a watch, you will laugh a lot too, the writer have come up with a strong theme, very original.
Like how can you make me sit and watch a beautiful demon drama? What I love about this drama, the writer makes
it very straight forward to follow, no entanglement and confusion. It is simply as that. I recommend to rewatch EP1
as it contained what the Demon did with the flowers and may have a part to play throughout the series.

I will update along the way ❤️‍🔥

After watching episode 9 & 10 only if I could rate it more than 10 out of 10!
SPOILER!!!
Gu Won regained his powers yippy!!!! I won't say which episode but it was MAGNIFICENT!!!
Gu Won is Do Hee's Perfect Demon! and this drama is my weekend therapy...❣️

I will LIVE for you. I will KILL for you. I will BURN for you. I will DIE for you.

"YOU ARE MY FATE THAT I CAN NOT DEFY"

If GOBLIN and DOOM AT YOUR SERVICE had a baby then its definitely gonna be *MY DEMON*.

TROPES
A stong and rich CEO female lead. A notorious demon male lead. Contractual/ marraige of convince. Bodyguard romance. Murder mystery. Chaebol conflict. Protect-her-at-any-cost vibes. Star crossed past lover conflict.

My demon is the epic romantic fantasy between a sly, mischievous demon and a strong minded young heiress.

THE CAST.
The chemistry between the main leads is just CHEMISTRY-ING. The eye contact, the visuals, the banter and lets not forget the TENSION between them keeps you on your toes. Song kang and Kim Yoo Jung not only have the visuals to please the eyes but the talent to literally make you feel the character. The character will literally make you SWOON, BLUSH, GIDDY , SHY, ANGRY, SAD and sometimes even CRY.
The antagonists of My Demon adding the TENSION and FEAR to the drama that needs to keep it engaging till the end. They have a way of making you annoyed and creeped out.

And let me have the honour to SCREAM IN BOLD- "SONG KANG IN THIS DRAMA SLAYED, HIS ACTING IS SOMETHING THAT IS THE LAST THING YOU WILL FOCUS ON."

And while we are at it, we need to talk about the excellent wardrobe and hair stylist. Like damn, they both look a million bucks. There outfit scream LUXURY and honestly suit them so well.

Romance. Mystery. Thriller. Comedy. Visuals. Cinematography. And a lot of MAGIC.
It is everything i think a kdrama has to have to make it ICONIC.

The cinematography makes it one of the most beautifully shot kdrama i have seen till date. The scene are shot so beautiful which will kinda give you nostalgic feeling of the time you watching goblin and Doom at yours service.
In short, MY DEMON is the kdrama that will give you everything you will want, and is a must watch. Definition one of the best kdrama this year.

look copying is also an art and I think this one did a decent job

A perfectly average drama I must say. I have seen many dramas but this is the first one that made me think of a perfect 7.

What was those drama you ask? Here is a short summary…. A copy.

It was literally using every cliche a fantasy Kdrama can ever think of the story is just trash and the sole thing that keeps you hooked is the Visuals and chemistry of ML and FL. But I guess it is not terrible nor excellent just a nice one time watch.

If I had to name all the dramas this series copied the list will be too long to count. But I can definately say this is not a totally original show. So If you want something original you should look somewhere else.

The OST is okay and the chemistry is amazing you will watch this entire show just because of the chemistry and characters. I must say that is the sole thing you would watch this show for.

Anyways it is a great one time watch and you will enjoy it if you don’t think much about the story and only focus on the chemistry.

Not my top pick but sure worth a watch

My Demon is Sinfully Good

Just finished this delightful Kdrama. This story is good. It's got a great romantic storyline along with all the mystery, suspense, drama, and comedy all in the right spots. The actors are playing their roles well without too much over-the-top exaggeration. The two main leads are a feast for the eyes, and a tug on the heart as they take us through their romantic journey. The romance is wrapped up in a story of intrigue and mystery with the sudden death of the chaebol chairwoman, the suspense of Guwon's future as a demon (will he become human, or burst into flame to be nevermore?), the comedy of the FL and ML's assistants simultaneously flirting and detesting each other, the mystery of the homeless woman (how does she figure into all of this?), and the historical references of Guwon's past watching someone dancing with swords (who could that be, and what made him a demon?).

This is the type of Kdrama that keeps me watching more of them. The storyline was beautifully written, the subplots meshed well with the main plot, and all were wrapped up nicely for a great ending. The actors fit their roles, and fit nicely with the flow of the story. In fact the actors did so well with their roles, that I would get so caught up with the story, and before I knew it I was crying along, laughing along, scared, tense, and completely intrigued. The ending came too soon and I'd have to wait a week for the release of the next two episodes.

It was very well done, and I enjoyed it greatly. Well done to the everyone, actors, writers, producers, director, and the production staff!! This one just really came together in everyway.

Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang: One of the best chemistry I have ever seen in a drama.

Let me first thank the casting director for casting these 2 together. They're just magical in this drama. so much natural chemistry; it never feels like they're acting.
This drama has 1 of the best cinematography I have ever seen in recent years in a drama. The Music. Splendid. Singer Yaori and her song True which is the show opening is so haunting and beautiful. I tend to skip Netflix kdramas openings but I never do it here , it is so good and well done.
Pdnim BRAVO, taking my hats off. I will be looking forward to his other projects.
Kim Yoo Jung: what an acting genius. I already knew what an amazing actress she is but she delivered even more and once again in this drama. Going on in 21 years in the industry at only 24 years old. I cannot wait to see her career blossom even more.
I am so happy that Song Kang will enlist leaving such a great drama behind and IMO his acting in this drama is the best he has ever done it since debut so I very much look forward to his acting career after the military.
Isnt it obvious that if a story is crafted into fantasy, melo, rom/com, it is going to have more or less references of other dramas of the same genre in some capacity by putting their own twist into it? So all the complaints about how My demon emulated from x, y, z in some aspects I just do not understand. Realistically speaking , it is kind of inevitable IMO.
I dont think I have ever seen a kdrama that basically incorporates all genres and My Demon managed to do that which I love so in that sense it is a great original work IMO.

What I loved the most about this drama though was the chemistry of KIm Yoo Jung and Song Kang; just so beautiful. I can keep on raving about it. I love how the writers, directors gave us so many moments between the couple and they had so many screentime together. We literally watched them as a married couple; doing mundane things everyday, how they tackled everything in life together.

I also loved how all the supports character had a specific purpose to the show; they were just not there for the sake of being support characters. The wild dogs, the Leads secretaries , Star Jin, the villains,.......

I have watched dramas from various countries over the years and this show will forever have a special place in my heart and Do Do hee and Guwon lovestory is 1 of the best lovestories I have ever had the pleasure to see. I am happy that My Demon was a HUGE success and I will my Demon Team terribly and I wished we could have a season 2.

THE ACTORS CHEMISTRY!!!!! ?

I'm a kdrama binge watcher it helps me forget my regular stressful life. And I watch all kinds of kdrama from horror to romantic. This kdrama reminds me of doom at your service. At the beginning it's all a transaction between both protagonist but slowly it turns into real love. Yes it's a kind of deja vue, but I can say this one had all kinds of styles it had mystery, fantasy, romance but also comedy which I found myself giggling and laughing like a school girl. I loved how depending on a life situation you and anyone would make a deal with a demon if it could turn your life around for the better !. Yes it's all cliche, but I think you will find that in everything from tv series to movies now a days the ideas are often recycled and cliche it's just how the actors deliver it that makes a difference and here they deliver well. You can feel the connection the love between the protagonist,you can almost touch it you can relate to some situations and almost want to sign that contract I sure would!i enjoyed it.
This kdrama is amazing. It has literally everything fantasy, comedy, romance, suspense, mystery and even more. The plot is also very good too, i highly recommend this kdrama!! The actors are very good and it has an interesting story n stuff. Every episode had something shocking and none of them were boring which i really liked. The chemistry between kim yoo jung and song kang is so undeniable too!! This kdrama is like an enemies to lovers thing i love it sm. The OST is also very nice and good in my opinion, also the KISS SCENESSS THEY DIDNT COME HERE TO PLAY WITH THE KISS SCENES OMLLL no one is talking ab the kiss scenes bro like in most kdramas their lips barely even touch but THIS kdrama had amazing kiss scenes. I rate this kdrama a 10/10 fsfs!!
All I can say this drama is a masterpiece ,story line is so refreshing the all actors and actresses are excellent they played very well in there characters .. the visual fx i so amazing my mouth is open every time I saw something new ..the song gives goosebumps everytime I listened ...what great work ..so happy they gave use the Happy ending that Songkang and kimyoojung they deserved and us viewers that we deserved .... so sad that Mydemon end this week no more sleepless nights on Friday and Saturday after work..Best kdrama 2024 My Demon .. congratulations to all involved in this beautiful drama all your hard work paid off.

Cliche but Enjoyable!

The story was a bit cliche and inspired from all the other supernatural dramas but it is definitely a enjoyable watch. The supernatural fantasy moments are good though. The editing and VFX does adds upto the pros for this drama

But I think the main selling point of this drama are the visual appeal of the leads !! OH MY GOD ! The chemistry between them is comfortable, natural and sizzling.
The cute interactions does make you smile.

SONG KANG was exceptional in this. I watched some behind the scenes of both Song Kang and Kim You Jung and loved it. I really liked how Kim You Jung was improvising while shooting and gently directly Song Kang as well.
The villian does give you creeps.

Though the story was nothing extraordinary but the acting and chemistry does make it a very enjoyable watch. I would definitely watch it again.

Pretty enjyable hot demon

This drama is an easy binge, or at least the first 9 or 11 episodes where easy to binge and pretty much went in one go but then I had to take. a break due to starting it a bit to early while airing which kind of killed the fun.

It could be that it really got a bit draggy in those last episodes or it could be the lost momentum but one thing is certain I enjoyed it more in the beginning than towards the end. As I enjoyed the dynamics between the god, the bad, the really really really bad... the past the present, the bickering, the cold... and the eye candy and the spontaneous combustions...

Though watching this had me convinced that the screenwriters of Korea must have made a bet sometime last year about creating the most twisted and deepest bond between characters as thins is another drama who is not satisfied with the shallow childhood connection and digs deeper, darker and bloodier in to the past. While 200 years is a lot less than other previous drams with up to 1500 years Id say this one manages to achieve the twisted connection rather well.

There are a few odd religious connotations here ant thee that did not really float my boat, and again some of the overall messages about mental health and desperation are kind of meeh.

The umbrellas in this drama are lovely, the music fit the scenes perfectly and the use of water, fire and watches a pleasure for my eyes. The PPL funny, colourful and impossible to miss... You must be able to find joy in PPL or you will probably hate this drama.

The predictability varies, and I do believe there where some new twists to our otherwise well known tropes. The level of annoying characters was kept to a decent level , there where a few but they did not take over to much or lower the score and well that is about it.

So basically not a masterpiece, not really a great watch but if you can handle your clices this is not a bad place to find them..


P.s. I would not mind having a deamon like Jung Koo Won at my disposal... could do without the selling my soul.. but they did do a pretty god job convincing me it may be worth it...

Demon boyfriend? I meeaaannnnn…

Listen, the name of the show kinda gives away what this show is about.

‘My demon’, yeah its the main characters demon!! Her hubby to be exact.

Fake arranged marriage and supernatural trope along with enemies to lovers trope mixed in, and they did it well actually!

The story itself or I guess the show overall isn’t anything special on its own, the plot is pretty basic and most things that happen are very predictable (at least for me).

The characters that get introduced in the show are either very likable or not likeable at all- no in between. But the people you don’t like at first get a very nice development and become likable. Its a sweet story but it does get a tiny bit boring. Most of the time I had to have something in the background playing to keep me from being bored.

But besides that, the main couple were so adorable! Like sickly sweet adorable ooohhh😭😭😭 they made me jealous so many times, giddy too! The actors definitely have a lot of chemistry with each other and its very obvious.

Show is a pretty basic K-Drama, its not bad but its nothing special either. Give it a watch if you’re curious about it!

DEFINITELY A RECOMMENDATION

this drama has my heart. the story line is so good as well as the drama itself. The characters are really good looking as well which captures attention wanting to watch it!


it’s honestly such a cute drama with a bit of suspiciousness as a lot of stuff is happening when it gets to the middle of the kdrama. whoever sees this review I definitely recommend watching this if u have nothing to watch or are looking to watch something in general. this kdrama will straight away capture ur attention when u watch through it.

also the first episode may not be as good but I promise u it’s getsss wayyyyyy bettterrr I promise. because I was like that too when I first started it I got bored by the first episode but then I got addicted to it and still am!!
