Good fantasy romance with electrifying chemistry between leads .

My review will be a comprise of what I liked the most and the least about My Demon:

✅️ As a fantasy enthusiast, I loved the fantasy aspect in this drama. A demon who really use his superpower even it is just for small things like switch on the lamp or help in housekeeping lol.

☑️ I enjoyed most part of the storyline especially in the first half. The first 10 episodes was interesting and addicting enough to me. But things got draggy from episode 11 - 13 I started to skip alot especially side character's story . At this point , I find myself didn't care at all about the secretaries love story & Jin Ga Young plot line. The main couple scenes also became too cheesy for me to digest haha. Thankfully things started to get better when the angst part came again in episode 14 till the end. Those last 3 episodes were a total tearjerker to me .

☑️ Average villain plot line .Nothing you have not seen before in a crime and family feud based drama.

✅️ The chemistry between Kim Yoo Jung -Song Kang was sooo lit! The eye contacts, skinships, how comfortable they acted around each other, all the jokes and teases ... Like they're really in love with each other. I'm not surprise if later we get a dating news of them haha.

✅️ Acting from all cast were good. I've first known Kim Yoo Jung as a child actor in Dong Yi . I liked her acting in that drama then I watched her in Moon Embracing the Sun , May Queen , Angry Mom & Love in the Moonlight. Watching her here made me think my girl has grown up , how fast time flies . Now she's eligible to get her own bedroom scene too lol. Anyway I enjoyed her acting all the same here. I could feel all her agony, sadness and her crying scenes made me cried with her too . Her young age & youthly visual to play a 28 years old Do Do Hee does not bother me much here because her great acting concealed if not all most of it. About Song Kang ,this was my second drama of him after Sweet Home. He didn't impressed me in that drama but I quite enjoyed his acting here. He did a good job in potraying a playful,cheeky and self-absorbed demon but very protective of a girl he likes. His great visual did help compensating what fell short from his acting lol.

✅️ Great OST. My favourites : True -YOARI and Say You Love Me - Sam Kim.

⭕️ My ratings for episode 1 -10 & 14-16 = 9/10 and episode 11 -13 =5/10.My final rating = 8.5/10.

I'll end my review with my favourite quote from the drama , " You humans love to blame fate for everything. But, fate is nothing more than a web woven by a myriad of choices of your making. " - Lady Beggar .
