My Demon, My Angel - A Review

Image
 My Demon had its final episode last night, and it was a wonderful showcase of how good and evil works in this world. And how love can make you good and how it can do the opposite. Guwon may have been the Demon. He grants wishes, for a price - after 10 years, you go to hell. It was said in the drama how it was God who created him. But is he really a Demon? I don't think so. I think he really is an angel. He saved Jin Gayoung as a child.  It may be accidental but he took her under his wings, made her his human companion. And she thrived, so much different from what she could've been if she grew up with her abusive father. He made good men out of thugs. Who would have thought, these loan sharks can still be good people. After teaching them a lesson, and seeing how he could actually lead them, they saw him as their boss. In the end, he made them stop their work in the underworld and do something good. And they did. They opened a legit restaurant.  He saved Dohee twice. It wa...

If we look at the ratings from Korea, we can quickly say it's not successful. Ep 7 - 4.5%  Ep 8 - 4.7%  Ep 9 - 4.2%  Ep 10 - 3.8%  Ep 11 - 3.7% Ep 12 - 2.9%  Ep 13 - 3.6%  Ep 14 - 3.4% Rating is declining and criticisms have been pouring in. Read on KNets reaction to My Demon's diminishing rating But despite these numbers, I believe the drama is still a success. The story is compelling.

Their kiss scenes become viral topics and trends. They even won Best Couple at the SBS Drama Awards last December.
