More like demonic revenge...
I started watching this drama with a bit of hesitation just because of the plot and some of the tags are not my usual cup of tea but since I saw quite a bit of hype on the drama and also the fact that I've never watched a Song Kang drama before (I know, long overdue) I took the dive.
For starters Song Kang is perfect, his acting is flawless, his smile is super cute - I will definitely be looking up his other dramas. Similarly YooJung is beautiful and she played her role so well. Together, they make an eye-candy sweet couple and I enjoyed seeing them together.
However, that is mostly where my pleasure ends. A drama soaked with many deaths, some tragic and sad others drawn out and for lack of a better term, long-awaited. A very sad, guilty and revenge-seething plot that was quite depressing and heavy to watch. A family torn apart by guilt and revenge that hurt everyone.
I will say I am a tad confused by the ML's ending as he got back his powers but his love story with the FL is still referred to as being too short since he will continue to be immortal whereas she will one day die like normal humans. In the middle of the drama he kind of admitted he no longer wanted to be a demon either as well...
P.S. Side note from someone who is a practicing young adult of faith. As can be expected way more than half of any of the references to religions/faith need to be taken with a very huge heaping spoonful of salt. However within the majority of that there was a small amount that held surprising amount of insight.
