A swirl of emotions

I have seen so many dramas and movies of this genre and I have to say that this is the one of the best I've watched. Watching this movies brings out all the emotions. Joy, sadness and anger. The cast was amazing!! Kim Woobin never disappoints! Even the support casts did an amazing job! The three friends joining him in the end to catch the criminal was just the cherry on top for one of the best movies ever. I watched this movie just for Kim Woobin but fell in love with the entire storyline and the cast. The team leader and his care for his team members, the innocent officer who died on site but left a great impact on viewers with his loyalty towards his captain, the three friends who didn't hesitate for a second to help their friend catch the bad guy, the dad who was worried for his son but wholeheartedly supported him catching the criminal and the little girl who went through one of the most traumatic experiences ever but overcame it strongly, everyone did a great job at bring out the reality of the world these days. Watching this movie made me really wish the world was a much better place for children.

A mix of action and comedy that you never knew you needed.

I watched this drama 05 years after it was released because I heard it was getting a season 02. Whenever I find out that a K-drama is having a season 02 I always make it a point to watch season 01, because 99% of the time the drama gets a second season because the first season was outstanding.

To say that I regret watching this drama so late is an understatement. If a drama can grab my attention 2 episodes in, then I know it's a must-watch and I have to say that I already loved it 20 minutes into this drama. When I saw that Ha Nee Lee was in the cast, I knew it was going to be a comic relief, because let's be honest, she always brings a sense of humour to her characters. The rest of the characters did an amazing job with their roles too. The storyline was so amazing that I felt every emotion along with the characters.

I loved how the story came together in the end and the character development of all the main characters, especially Goo Dae Young and Park Kyung San. Priest Han and Sister Kim's scenes were so refreshing to watch too. I'm really glad that the writers didn't kill off Priest Han, because if they did I really would have considered dropping the drama. I loved the ending they gave to Jang Ryong and Hwang Cheol Beom, especially when they showed how they felt about killing Father Lee. It brought out the human side of them.

The comedy scenes of this drama were top-notch as well. I know we are supposed to hate the villains in these dramas but I have to say that I really had fun watching them and their shenanigans. It was very refreshing to see that none of the Priests and Nuns took on the roles of double agents. I would have really hated to a character amongst them, who would end up betraying them in the end.

All in all, this drama is definitely recommended for anyone who loves action but also needs a comic relief. The drama really managed to stick to its action genre even when there were so many scenes that made you laugh out loud. I have very high expectations for season 02, especially knowing that most of the main cast is returning.

Short yet sweet

It's only a 2 episode short series but it was packed with everything that it needed to have.

I wasn't expecting her to enter the manhwa world when she fainted... It was a nice twist of things. When I watched No Gain, No Love, I wondered why she fainted when Gyu Hyeon was about to be knocked down by the vehicle but now it makes sense.

I also really loved the part with her and her father. Thanks to her book she got the love from her dad that she never got in real life. Never thought I needed this spin-off to feel like No Gain, No Love is finally complete.

What's meant to be is meant to be

A beautiful drama about how fate will always lead you to the person you are meant to be with. The drama started off with great potential and ended with no disappointment. The story was panned out perfectly, no rushed endings. The actors, especially Byun Woo Seok, did an extremely amazing job at bringing out his character. He managed to portray so many emotions and expressions and did justice to his role. The dramas stirrs so many emotions in just a single episode. I have to say that I was skeptical about watching it because of all the controversy surrounding it even before it aired but I am glad I gave it a chance. My Mondays and Tuesdays were full of hope thanks to this amazing work of art.

Another hit starring Park Shin Hye.

"A demon whose mission is to kill evil people who lead other people to their deaths and don't reflect on their actions". There are some dramas that you know are going to be a hit the moment you read the synopsis, and this was one of them. Park Shin Hye being the lead was a cherry on top.

The plot of the drama was truly outstanding. It's very common to see a devil go out of character as the story develops but the writers made Justitia stay true to her character till the end. The character development throughout the drama was very consistent and satisfying. There was no rush in the episodes and everything was brought together really well. The scenes where she punishes the perpetrator were so satisfying to watch!! They each got exactly what they deserved! Seeing how they were punished exactly the way they treated the victims gives the viewers a different kind of satisfaction.

The cast did a great job bringing their characters to life. Park Shin Hye as always surpassed my expectations. Seeing her in her girl-boss era really shows her versatility. She always did justice to her roles but she outshined herself with the role of Justitia. The rest of the cast also did amazing with each of their roles.

The only downside I can think of for this drama is the romance aspect of it. At first it was kind of fun seeing how Justitia found Han Da On fun to play around with but turning it into a romance was not actually necessary, in my opinion. The story could have panned out well even without the romance between the two main characters. Their chemistry as the police officer and demon was top-notch but as lovers, it didn't really stand out.

Overall the drama was one of the best dramas to air in 2024. I would recommend it as on of the must-watch dramas of this year. If you are looking for a fantasy, revenge drama to satisfy your demon side, I would recommend watching this!
