Watching this for Song Kang

Let me start with the fact that the actress Kim Yoo Jung looks like a doppelgänger with Ki Hyun Woo. Right down to the eye mold on the left cheek.

As with Kdramas with chaebols. You can expect a villain. This villain became apparent after before the final reveal. As soon as you were shown the son being evil you can see the misdirect to the true villain. Although they did give a second misdirect with the cousin and the dad.

The mom really did not deserve a redemption arc in the end. Both Chairman Ju and Kim Se Ra. At least the sister Noh Soo A stayed true to being a self serving chaebol to the very end.

Of course what demon series wouldn’t do a past lives reincarnation. At least it makes a bit more sense in this series. I mean we need an original story of why he became a demon.

With the whole 200 year old demon I would imagine there are other demons too. My guess is that he is only accountable for however many souls there are clocks.

It also makes sense that a demon needs to be visual pleasing to the eyes. I mean who would sell their soul to an fugly mofo. I mean the devil is supposed to be god’s most beautiful angel before he fell into hell for an insurrection.

The side couple of Shin Na Jeong and Park Bok Yu was entertaining enough without eclipsing the main couple.

Overall, it is an easy watch despite this not being new or groundbreaking. It is just a guilty pleasure to watch Song Kang in another series where he looks hot with decent story and acting.
