Meu Demônio Favorito (2023)

meu demônio da paralisia do sono: DO DOHEE! DO DOHEE!

bobinho demais. é construído por aquela narrativa clichê que te leva pra todos os lugares que seu coração romântico quer ir e com um casal fofo que se entrosa muito bem.

apesar de não ser fã da performance do song kang, os momentos que ele mais brilhou foram ao lado da sua amada do dohee (kim yoojung).

vilão fraco, storyline confusa e mau construída, alguns personagens simpáticos e infelizmente pouco explorados. queria que o plot da ga star tivesse mais desdobramentos assim como toda vez que a gangue aparecia eu desejava que continuasse porque me faziam rir genuinamente. k-drama regular de fantasia, ficou entre bom e ruim pra mim.

obs: kudos para a beauty team que me fez ficar obcecada pela maquiagem da yoojung, estarei reproduzindo o delineado marrom dela any time soon!)

Apesar do titulo entregar tudo me senti abrindo Um pouco Kinder Ovo

Em resumi, assistam apesar de muitas divergência nas crença religiosas e de montarem um diálogo que chega a ser perturbador entre Deus e Diabo, se você não tem fôlego drope e quando se sentir bem paR essa conversa assista.

Para quem gosta da temática fantasia e vidas passadas acredito que esse seja um drama bem interessante. Porém, tem muita certeza que o enredo poderia ter sido melhor, assim como as motivações da transformação do rapaz e não ser espiritualmente maligno, e toda linha de pessoas que fizeram muito contratos Assim como as mortes apresentadas poderiam ter sido mais bem elaborado. Apesar de que o efeito especial apresentado nas diversas explosões foi realmente Fantástico e fez na minha opinião sobre de nível a série. Não vou citar nada sobre o final, mas deixe em aberto que poderia ter sido melhor.

Eu assisti muitos dramas de quase todos do elenco principal e posso dizer que as atuações foram cheias de sentimentos e conseguiram passar a mensagem que os personagens precisavam, neste ponto gostei muito.
Em outra ponto a descoberta de quem realmente são os verdadeiros vilões e como eles começam a surgir e mostrando diversos problemas de saúde e distúrbios mentais dos personagens deixaram a série muito rica de informações e passando algo mais atualizado, ate porque temos passado no mundo momentos de guerra e sussurros de guerra, depois de um vasto de tempo de pandemia, que deixou rastro de luto e muitos bloqueios psicológicos, foi isso que me motivou ir até o final além do elenco principal que gosta muito posso dizer que sou realmente apaixonada na atuação do casal protagonista. Eles arrazam e cresceram muito na telinha.

Enfim nesse exato momento que estou passando na minha vida me fez fazer algumas reflexões e tomar algumas decisões que estava postergando e principalmente me pus a chorar precisava esvaziar um pouco às vezes adiamos o choro e a tristeza para ficar focando na vida que passa rápido e o mundo não para nos esperar e esquecemos de dar a pausa necessária que todo mundo precisa de tempos em tempos você esvaziar e olhar em volta e realmente dar valor ao que merece é necessário de tempos em tempos reavaliar a nossa vida, e deixar para lá sentimentos que nos pesam e esquecer de situações que não nos levam a nada porque não podemos voltar no tempo, assim como diz aquele provérbio chinês "Há três coisas na vida que nunca retrocedem: a flecha lançada, a palavra pronunciada e a oportunidade perdida".

É isso.

"Somos destruidores e salvadores uns dos outros."

Que final ótimo!!!! O drama desde o começo do marketing dele, foi incrível, todo mundo esperando por um drama com um casal já casado que ia prometer tudo e em nenhum episódio decaiu em qualidade e expectativa o que foi ótimo e surpreendente.
O drama tem uma história muito boa, mas podemos falar que além da história teve muita química do nosso casal protagonista? Pra mim foi um dos melhores papéis do Song Kang e acho que ele fechou com chave de ouro pra ir pro exército e deixar a gente esperando pela volta dele, foi divertido, sombrio e amoroso, a química com a yoo Jung foi perfeita e entregou tudo, tão apaixonados esse casal, um dos melhores até hoje que assisti.
Além dos demais personagens, Austin e Justin fizeram história nesse drama, o final justo pro Suk min.
Nosso casal secundário Sr park e a Sra Shin amei demais esses dois, extremamente hilário KKKKK
Imaginei que a Ga young não iria embora, ela ficou tantos episódios dizendo que ia que já tava claro
Gostei do personagem do Sang yi mas achei que ele ia ter um papel mais importante devido a outros papéis dele anteriores mas o final dele como CEO foi justo.
Nossa mais nova mamãe da dramaland como Deus foi incrível né? Amei
Acho que o que me deixa triste é só saber que o gu won não se tornou humano, a gente fica pensando que ela vai envelhecer e ele lá acompanhando essas fases dela...
Acho que é isso, o drama foi bom, eu adorei e manteve sua qualidade!

Só na ficção mesmo pra um demônio ser funcionário de Deus

Do Do Hee perdeu os pais muito nova e foi adotada pela CEO de um grande conglomerado. Acostumada a perder aqueles que ama desde cedo, ela construiu uma armadura em volta do coração e não deixa ninguém se aproximar demais.

A única pessoa que conseguiu se infiltrar novamente em seu coração, foi Cheon Sook, a mulher que a adotou. Porém, quando ela morre de maneira suspeita e deixa todos os seus bens para Do Do Hee sob a condição de que ela se case em um ano, Do Hee se torna alvo de um assassino.

Do Do Hee vê seu caminho sendo cruzado com o de Gu Won, um demônio que tem feito tratos com humanos há 200 anos, e por um acaso do destino, o poderes dele acabam sendo transferidos para ela. Agora, os dois se veem obrigados a trabalharem juntos: Gu Won, para recuperar os seus poderes e; Do Hee para descobrir quem está tentando matá-la e desvendar a verdadeira causa da morte de Cheon Sook.

A partir dessa aproximação forçada entre os dois e um contrato de casamento, começa a florescer um romance entre eles nesse processo.

My Demon foi um dorama que não entregou o que prometeu e eu acabei finalizando ele com uma sensação de que faltou algo. A história começou muito bem introduzindo os personagens e estabelecendo uma dúvida central: Quem matou Cheon Sook? Quem está tentando matar Do Do Hee? E eu realmente duvidei de muitas pessoas até o culpado ser revelado. Mas acontece que para mim, essa era a parte mais importante da história, então quando os mistérios e as investigações foram deixados de lado para dar espaço ao romance, eu acabei desanimando.

O romance não foi ruim, eu gostei bastante da dinâmica entre os dois, porém a mudança na personalidade do Gu Won foi tão abrupta, que chegou a ficar artificial: Num segundo ele era imponente, poderoso e só estava com a Do Hee por seus interesses pessoais, e no outro, ele tinha virado um bobo apaixonado. Os roteiristas pesaram muito a mão, senti falta de um desenvolvimento mais gradual dos sentimentos deles.

Com relação à conclusão, eu faço parte do 0,1% da dramalândia que não queria que eles ficassem juntos. Eu senti que esse dorama pedia por um final trágico, principalmente depois de descobrirmos que o Gu Won foi o responsável pela morte do pai da Do Hee. Mas isso não foi algo que me incomodou muito, só acho que eu teria feito uma abordagem diferente.

De modo geral, foi um dorama muito bom, com fotografia, cenário, trilha sonora e figurinos impecáveis, mas que se perdeu um pouco da metade pro final, além de ter focado demais nos protagonistas e esquecido de desenvolver melhor os outros personagens.

Cute demon

Típico romcom de fantasia, tem até referência a goblin haha. O título de demônio do Jung Koo Won poderia ser facilmente trocado por qualquer outro ser místico. Do Do Hee é uma personagem maravilhosa e ver o prota chamando o nome dela é a coisa mais fofa que existe. Amei as brigas e as cenas de romance entre o casal. Foi muito divertido de assistir. Achei muito bons os personagens secundários e vilões. Imaginei que o prota iria acabar virando humano, mas não fizeram isso.

Um demônio com cara de bebê

Uma história maravilhosa.

Do Do Hee sofreu muito durante a trama mas no final valeu a pena. E o que falar do nosso demônio favorito, apenas um bebê, que as vezes pode ser mal e muito carinhoso com sua amada.

Ao decorrer da trama é possível ver a mudança que a Do Hee provoca no Koo Won e aos poucos ela também vai mudando seu jeito de ser.

Tem muitas cenas engraçadas e de aquecer o coração (vidas solteiras importam!) mas também há cenas para chorar e passar mutar raiva com os personagens.
OST maravilhosa.

Só digo uma coisa: pra que inimigos quando se tem uma "família" dessas.

Dorama completo em romance, suspense e humor

My demon tem a fórmula perfeita de sucesso, subestimei e fiquei feliz por ter dado uma chance. Começa um pouco mal (por isso desisti uma vez de ver) porque exageram demais nas frases/cenas clichês e nos efeitos especiais. Mas quando relevei os dois primeiros episódios, o que assisti foi uma história excelente, com uma trilha sonora de tirar fôlego: o tema da abertura é maravilhoso, ainda mais somado a diversas cenas com músicas feitas por uma orquestra riquíssima de ritmo sombrio e diversos instrumentos clássicos. Song Kang e Kim You Jung são atores completos, entregam tudo nos papéis principais. Não é mais uma historia de romance, é um suspense que envolve assassinatos, problemas mentais, intrigas de família, e conta também um pouco da Coreia medieval de uma forma muito vívida e intrigante, e ainda tem doses saudáveis de humor, dei boas gargalhadas em vários momentos. Menção honrosa para o papel da Madame Ju, ela é um personagem fascinante, carregada de humor ácido que dá vivacidade à cultura coreana, sempre tão carregada de seriedade e formalidades. Segunda menção honrosa é para o Mordomo senhor Park, ele é um comediante talentosíssimo do nível de Jim Carrey, entrega tudo nessa série.

Just ok, not the best!

***DISCLAIMER: This is just my opinion. We don’t have to agree and I’m not here to argue with anyone.***

To keep it brief, they had me and then they completely lost me.

GENERAL REMARKS:

Listen I’m not really a fan of any of these actors so i’ll try to keep this review as unbiased as possible. When I heard this drama was being produced I was unsure because I don’t really like Song Kang’s acting. I was only convinced to watch because I have been impressed by Yoo Jung in some of her previous works and thought hey maybe if this is not the best she will at least carry on her part.

But I was wrong. This story was lackluster in every single way. I only was kind of intrigued for the first 5-6 episodes of the show but then everything started to go downhill after Gu Won rescued Do Hee from the burning gas station / shop in episode 8. They built up the plot so much at that point only the bring it back down and then throw in a lot of other useless side plots and the past lives / reincarnation trope. It was not necessary to say the least.

I feel like all Yoo Jung and Song Kang have in this show were their strong visuals. I feel like the color grading was over done… they made them look paper / milk white and you could not see one pore or any texture in their skin at all which was kind of off putting. Yes their visuals are good but what else? To me it felt like they could not really deliver on the chemistry after a the first time they kissed and did the do. It just seemed like as the drama progressed it was unnatural and they were both trying too hard to convince us the audience. I see more of a friendship bond between the actors especially in the BTS videos (these were super cute ngl) In my opinion, when they were bantering / not on the best of terms it was better than their romance / relationship and marriage era in the drama.

It’s so ironic and hilarious how most of us suspected Seok Hoon would be a bad guy but he turned out to be one of the good ones from the beginning with no hidden agenda or plot twist. Not gonna lie it was a bit of a let down just because he's a good actor and it would've been refreshing to see him take on the role of the villain, but no he's always the second guy and it's almost like he plays the same character every time.

Gu Won was brought back far too soon in my opinion, and there was no build-up or explanation of what happened to him after he vanished or even if he could still see what was going on in the mortal world. Also I believe they incorporated the story of the deal Do Hee’s father made with Gu Won so quickly. I kind of predicted that he had saved her mom and her as a baby after they were in some kind of accident and I was right. To be honest, they tried to make it seem like her father was desperate enough to make a deal with the devil for his personal gain but I knew that could never be the case.

The way she learned that Gu Won was the man her father had struck a bargain with and then seemed to be shocked when he performed his demon responsibilities since the contract had expired really irritated me. Like come on, she was aware of who he was the entire time, so her sudden display of shock and surprise irked me so much. She started off as such a formidable character, but as the drama progressed, it was like her character development stalled and she grew weaker. She became a damsel in distress who was always waiting for poor Gu Won to come along and save her.

I’m happy Do Hee and Gu Won got their happy ending but I can't help but think at what cost. Do Hee lost so many close / precious people to her and that asshole Noh Su Min is still alive and able to be living while rotting away / losing his mind in prison. To me not enough justice was served, I needed to see Gu Won fight that man and hit him harder for real.

The uncanny bromance between Gu Won and Seok Hoon became so heartwarming. I’m glad both he Gu Won and Do Hee are able to consider each other as friends / family and get along well even if it did start out with him being madly in love with Do Hee. I’m actually glad they didn’t write the drama where he still would’ve tried his luck at pursuing her even after Gu Won disappeared like most other dramas. It was refreshing to see him give up from early on.

I cannot believe they made my man No Suh Min Ugly. His poor face (I’m half joking half serious but he was good looking before him taking such drastic measures and burning himself) I could not bear to look at him anymore as the drama went on. I have to say I really enjoyed Tae Hoon's performance. He had me convinced he was an abusive father and husband, the devil reincarnate and a psychopathic murderer all in one.

The last scene where Ga Young / Star Jin met the little girl who was being abused by her father broke my heart and tore it into a million pieces. Oh my gosh the tears kept flowing… her character arc / redemption is one of the best to come out of the show. I am so proud of her… the way she looked at the child it was like she herself was finally healing her inner child and able to protect someone the way Gu Won protected her all those years ago.

Unlike Gu Won she told her “Don’t forget angels always come and save you.” Finally she changed the narrative and gave the littler girl the hope and words of encouragement she needed all those years ago. To me that was just a really full circle moment and the only moment in the show that literally brought me to tears.


FINAL THOUGHTS:

In my opinion, this drama had a good beginning, an alright to mid middle, and an unimpressive conclusion. The drama twists Christianity and Demonism while maintaining certain aspects of the familiar; if you watch closely, you'll see all of their subtle allusions. I liked this drama to an extent, but I didn't believe the plot was properly developed or that the ending was plausible.

The Gu-won recantation sequence was one that I thought should have received more attention because I didn't think it was compelling enough. Do Hee is human, while Gu Won is still immortal. To be honest, I honestly believed that they would have caused her to spiral and become into an immortal or demon herself working alongside him or they would have caused Gu Won to reincarnate as a human or be reborn somehow. Simply put, it makes no sense for them to be together if Do Hee has a limited amount of time left on earth, which means that Gu Won will have to survive without her. Like LMAO? They really should have watched more supernatural movies/shows (eg. Twilight) before making this show so they can understand how human / immortal relationships have to play out. Granted, this story was written by a 13-year-old, but that's no excuse because the writers could've tried harder to improve the story and make it more logical.

Honestly the only good thing about this drama was the occasional funny moments, heartfelt moments and most importantly the OST. I could listen to it over and over again though I do think the song "Say You Love Me" and "The Way to Lose You" were played much too frequently. I like the songs don't get me wrong, but they used them so much that it was just a bit of an overkill.

I don’t think I’d recommend this drama to anyone because they’d be disappointed or feel that it lacked a lot. Unless cliche / underdeveloped fantasy romance is your thing I'd advise you stay away or just go into this with lower expectations. If you decide to press play just remember you're primarily here for entertainment not so much groundbreaking acting or even a half decent plot.

With all of that said, I give this drama a 6/10 mainly for the acting.

Not My Demon

Listen. Don’t come at me. But this ain’t it.

The storyline is childish and disappointingly lacking. They set up this promising premise of a demon, losing his powers, falling in love, and learning to live as a human. Should be interesting, right? WRONG.

The demon here is an idiotic loverboy who can’t use his brain even after existing for thousands of years. The FL is this gorgeous looking fireball who is supposed to be smart, cunning anf cutthroat. Key words are “supposed to be.” You get an annoyingly weak and pretty FL who does nothing but let the villains get the upperhand while eating cake with her pretty husband. Then, on their free time, they’ll put in some effort to catch the bad guys. SHE HAS A DEMON FOR A HUSBAND AND THEY DIDNT SOLVE ANYTHING OR EVEN SAVE THEMSELVES.

Y’all. The brain cells I lost watching this …

Don’t get me started on the useless side characters. From the overly dramatic and clownish villains, to the side couples, to the office workers and the gang members. They were just fillers to get this to 16 episodes of showing the gorgeous leads. That’s all.

To sum up:
Even on 1.5 speed, I could not wait to finish this damn series. What a joke to the actors. Who wrote this script? A 12 year old Twilight fan?

- What demon? He was a hopeless romantic with a side hustle involving fire.
- what murder mystery? Just crazy people playing with fire.
-What villains? Just cray crays over acting and shitting their pants over nothing.
- What chemistry? Just 2 gorgeous people looking gorgeous while doing gorgeous things together.
-What deep insightful message were we supposed to get out of this? Never trust a Netflix show with pretty people.

" We may destroy each other at times, but we're also the ones who save each other"

" We may destroy each other at times, but we're also the ones who save each other". Therefore, we are both each other's destroyers and saviors.

" My Demon" is one of the first kdrama i enjoyed watching without getting bored, i was always excited to watch the new episodes when it aired every Friday and Saturday.

STORY: My demon is a fantasy rom com that tells the story of Guwon and Dohee, it switched from supernatural, romance,
Joseon era (which is the key foundation to Guwon and Dohee's Love story),thriller, family drama, CEOxbodyguard, and just
the right balance and mix that had me waiting impatiently for the next episode. Guwon and Dohee's love story started
as enemies to marriage contract to lovers and fighting for love to be with each other. Though their fate was cruel to them,
they always found a way to overcome every trials they faced. The past live of Yisun and Wolsim was beautiful yet tragic. I
do have a lot more to say about this drama but i will keep my review short.

CAST: Song Kang: He played the role of Guwon, i liked the fact that he didn't remain stoic and cold and aloof the entire time,
rather he displayed silliness, malewife role , and his comedic side is so funny.
Kim Yoojung: I could feel the depth of her character Dohee just by watching her, she portrayed the role of a
CEO, a cute wife and a strong woman who is outstanding. I could also feel the emotions through her eyes as she
embodied Dohee like a real human who went through so many pain. The pairing of Song kang and Kim Yoojung together
created an explosive magical chemistry, that word's cannot describe and i am grateful to have gotten to know them more
because of this drama. The side characters all played well as each of them portrayed the characters of humans, The
gangsters are so funny and have a good enemy to lovers bond with Guwon.

Although the story of My Demon may have its ups and downs, I was truly invested in the story of Guwon and Dohee, their love story is really captivating and touching, as they went through so many eventful times were they had to save each other again and again until they finally conquered. The emotional connection between them made me feel the love they both have for each other. Though some may not like their cute couple moments but each time i watch them i always find myself smiling so hard.

WHY I LOVE MY DEMON

Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang have good chemistry between them, the way they interact with each other, the eye contacts, and how comfortable they are around each other. They defined chemistry in the way i could not describe because i can feel just by watching them.

OST : My Demon Ost is so good as each song has meaningful words that adds to the story and the melody is soothing to my ear, my fav ost is "With You" by winter of Aespa girl group." True" by Yoari is also good as its the intro song used in the drama and i never for once skipped the intro even though i was eager to watch the new episodes.

ACTING : Song Kang played his role as a demon and human as he did a good job portraying the character of a self -absorbed demon, playful and funny human too. He has the potential of becoming a more better actor and I hope to see him excel more when he returns from the military. I have watched some of Kim Yoojung's drama and she is indeed a good actress who can portray different characters in one play, she did so well in her thriller parts i could feel the agony, sadness, happiness, and her crying scenes here in this drama and I hope for all the best in her career.

STORYLINE: I enjoyed the storyline in this drama, the angst scenes, the past live story which was a big part of this drama which was built with historical and cultural references, making it more bittersweet and so rightfully satisfying even though some people complained about this troupe it was very useful here as it answered all my questions. The religion aspect here made me like this drama more as I could relate to most parts that talks about Christianity and was also the link to Guwon and Dohee's story. I really have so much to say about this story but I think my review is becoming too long now.

PARALLELISM: The parallelism in My Demon is my roman empire because it explains that "history repeats itself " which is true and it happens. As their fate was cruel in the past but ended in the present as they both conquered all the hardships they faced and started a new beginning.

CINEMATOGRAPHY- Aesthetically pleasing throughout each episodes .

The story of Guwon and Dohee ended happily but left audience thinking if it's truly a happy ending because Guwon still returns as a demon and Dohee as a human and i say yes it is a HAPPY ENDING because Dohee wished to have him back and their lives are linked together, when Dohee dies so will Guwon because his life is her wish. This is also implied by God that said "silly humans" meaning that both in fact will go eventually brought back for a limited time. Also the good on the hat of God is now shining so it means good ending. They will always find each other and Love each other for as long as they can.

As i end my review, I would like to say that this drama may not have satisfied everyone but i was truly satisfied even though some mistakes were made, nothing is perfect but the story of Guwon and Dohee is Perfect and memorable, leaving me with so many quotes to remember.

My fav Quotes : " Caught in the crossfire of hatred and misfortune ceaselessly hurt each other and destroy each other's
souls. However, despite all that, our lives and this world continues. Perhaps that's because there are more
people who save each other with their love and trust".
" I can do all things through him who strengthens me - Bible verse Phil 4: 13.

I’ve missed this…Reminds me why I fell in love with K-Dramas in the first place?

This show is everything I love and miss about Korean dramas. I’m trying to take my time watching it after binging the first few episodes because I don’t want it to end.

The visual appeal alone, just the visual appeal of the two main leads is enough of a reason to watch the drama! Not to be vain or someone who obsesses over looks but it’s undeniable that it’s way more entertaining, enjoyable, makes onr happier, to watch very attractive people on television.

Song Kang- GORGEOUS, Kim Yoo-Jung- GORGEOUS. They are practically a work of art when placed together and I’m in love. I unfortunately began to ship them in real life because they look too good together to be paired with anyone else other than each other. LOL I’m really obsessed with them right now but all jokes aside, they are so cute and the chemistry is chemistrying. I fear I’ll never get over this one y’all, pray for me??

I haven’t been watching a lot of Korean dramas recently because it’s so hard to find a good romance with both actors that I can enjoy and a good compelling story or are good enough chemistry because even if the story is not that good if the chemistry is good enough I can get through it because they’re a cute couple. I’m so happy about watching this drama. It’s making me crave Korean dramas like I used to in the past. I’m only on episode six now. I hope that it stays as beautiful and fun entertaining as it is until the end so that the rewatch value is high.

A goblin, grip reaper, fox, alien, vampire, and now a demon!

It's like collecting Pokemon, and now there's another piece that fits into the puzzle.

If you looking for something incredibly new and mindblowing, then this is NOT it; if you looking for something light-hearted that has beautiful visuals, comedy, and romance, and to just pass the time ~ this is it!

The story takes the typical cliche and mixes it to make something unique using;
- A female CEO who is rich and strong ✅
- A demon who becomes a bodyguard ✅
- A contract marriage of convenience✅
- A murder mystery surrounding a chaebol conflict ✅
- Past life lovers (?)✅

The humor and the chemistry are captivating in many scenes; the love between the leads can be felt through their eyes and actions. The annoying and creepy characters (especially the family of the FL) keep you on your toes. And some of the characters (cough second FL & ML) make your blood boil.

The story was consistent in delivering and keeping up with the pacings, chemistry, and romance through! Honestly, give it a shot and it will have you hooked on the first episode!
