𝑰𝒔 "𝑴𝒚 𝑫𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒏" 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒉 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑯𝒚𝒑𝒆 𝑭𝒐𝒓 𝑴𝒆? Series Review

Before I get to answer the question I have thrown at myself, I'd love to commend those who made this series possible and also those who got it to trend and a lot of people have been talking about it. For someone who always wait till a series is concluded before watching it, I got tempted to start seeing "My Demon" much earlier than when it ended.

Obviously, this is because the series was getting so much hype and I could say I've seen a lot of it's scenes from reviews on Tiktok and even on WhatsApp status. It was impossible to say I've never heard of the series, My Demon before I got to see it in full.

Well, I've seen the series and I can only respond to the question in one kind of way... Not so much worth the hype.

Maybe I expected way too much or the errors I saw were too much that it almost override the other beautiful parts of seeing the series. No, I'm not saying I regretted seeing the series. I'm actually happy I did and I enjoyed my time on it but from someone who had seen a lot of fantasy kdramas, I pinpointed some errors from this one even when I didn't want to.

I won't necessarily call them errors as they were only going by the scripts given to them but I felt some scenes were not necessary, some were done too thoroughly lol and some kinda went slow that I was on forward button to get to the next scene.

But I love the storyline, the twists and the Comedy in it. It got through till the end to say, it was worth the watch but can't say, it was worth the hype. I bet a lot of kdrama fans would agree that "Tale of the Nine Tailed" is far more better than this one regardless of the different storylines.

Well, let's get down to a bit of this series storyline before I conclude on my thought.

The series is about a 200 years old demon who isn't able to remember how he became a demon but enjoys his job making deals with humans by trading their greed with their souls and he goes to take their souls after 10 years. I still don't get that "after ten years" part, maybe it's for this particular series or it's a kinda thing connected to what happens in reality lol.

The Demon starred by Song Kang tries to make another deal with a lady who is in trouble but ends up losing his power mark to the lady and things led him to being around the lady whenever he has to use his power. A demon who finds humans very insignificant became a bodyguard to a human girl and love began to blossom between them.

He has a chef and a dancer who I feel their roles were felt in the series but a few of the scenes given to them were unnecessary but it is fine, maybe to get the series longer or something lol.

The series is also about a chaebol lady Do Do Hee starred by Kim Yoo-jung, who lost her parents at a young age and was adopted by a chaebol woman who left her bigger part of inheritance to her. The series showed a lot of scenes where Do Do Hee has the fight for what was left behind for her even when it felt right that the inheritance be left for the real family of the deceased woman.

Well, her life wad put to danger a good number of times in the series and all that led her to the Demon who kept protecting her until the end while they fell in love.

I'm not giving even a 70% to their love chemistry but I think the storyline of the series played a role in how that should go. But in all, I'd say the supporting characters played really good roles in getting the two to come to terms of their true feelings.
