I too think FL just never had anyone she could completely trust, and again and again people in her life kind of confirmed her bias. Still she was someone who wanted to help people that were in her life which surely isn't a sign of someone who is spoiled or arrogant, and she tries her best to provide assistance to everyone but just doesn't actually know which type of help is actually help and which is being controlling or being nosy. Also Qi Lian's reaction is still understandable because if FL was not FL but some other character they would have been captured, interrogated and later handed over to the police (all too in way harsher way then what FL experienced). I think just because she is the FL and we are seeing the drama from her point of view (so we trust her and understand her) we are all thinking it is wrong for her to be treated that way but if we consider the situation if she was someone else (not FL) than she might turn out to be a psychopath who is acting nice but travels through space and time, and impersonates the people whose bodies she borrows without considering what happens to the victim, maybe they die maybe they don't, maybe they are just missing, who knows.

Although I don't advocate violence and aggression, but for episode 7 I think his reaction was quite understandable, people who do not understand why ML is so aggressive here should try to understand things from his point of view. ML just found out the friend he has been searching for might be a space traveler (he is blaming himself for what happened to his friend and even for his disappearance) and before he can even completely comprehend that he is thrown into chaos again because another one of his friends (who he may also have loved) is in crisis which is Jiang Xiao Yuan of ML's world. Here he comes to know that a complete stranger has taken over Jiang Xiao Yuan body and that person's intentions are unknown, what happened to the real Jiang Xiao Yuan is something no one knows, what if this new person (FL) killed the Jiang Xiao Yuan and took over her body or what if she is somewhere else or what if she simply just got deleted when this new person came in. Just imagine if you had a dear friend who you were really close with but lost contact for many years, you were always feeling guilty because you guys ended things on the wrong note. After many years you find them again, but in misery, you search and find out how bad your friend's life was all these years, now you are extremely sad on top of being guilty and you want to do everything in your power to help your friend. But one day you find out that the person you met is not your friend but someone else who was impersonating your friend, now suddenly you don't know this new person who you have been friends with for over a month, whom you have helped, made dinner for, felt sorry for, etc. and the list goes on, but now you don't know how much of that was truth and how much was just impersonation. On top of that now you don't even know what happened to your friend are they alive or dead, or captive, etc? Being aggressive is really nothing people might end up killing someone in these situations or at the least hand them over to the police after trying out everything they can to get information out of that persons mouth.

I really like how upfront ML and FL in this drama are about the things they want to do. They don't hold back in front of anyone when they want to express their opinions, they both are so motivated to achieve their goals, plus how well they treat each other. Also, the best part of episode 7 (although I have only watched 50% of it) was that we had our clueless and forever single Tae Ha receive tips from his secretary so that he can chase Yeon Woo but the next moment he drops one of the smoothest confessions even in kdrama history🤣😭🤣 (i replayed that scene so many times🤣).
I am still unsure about what ML's grandfather wants, at first, he seemed a good and kind person, especially towards ML but now it seems like he is quite political similar to how kings were in historical times who would let their families fight each other so that they can select the best heir to the throne and if they favored someone they would do everything to remove everyone else from the picture. And in episode 7 I think he is now unsure about helping ML and looks as if he would lose his interest if ML fails again in any way. I hope he does not turn into a villain or try to separate ML and FL.

I think so too, maybe people can travel to another universe (or maybe virtual reality like in Matrix) as long as they are the owner of the phone by getting into the body of the version that exists in that universe. Each time someone travels there becomes a copy of their phone that gets left in the universe (like the one ML finds) and now we have one more member. And each time the owner dies they travel to another universe while everything about them gets deleted from the universe they just traveled from. And considering how Xu Jing Yang handed over the phone to FL I think he suspected that she was a traveler (as he asked her to find the answer to the question "why she came here in the first place" or something similar) or maybe she is the first user but somehow forgot everything but to start the cycle again he told her the specific date, time and path to take for the accident happen. Even when she was walking out of the hospital she saw a previous version of herself in her vision asking her why she came here to take up this version and didn't stay as the version she was before which may be a hint that her subconsciousness knows she is a traveler.

the drama is good so far, I at first thought it was going to have a serious tone due to how mysterious everything was in the first episode but after watching 4 episodes I think it takes a lighthearted rom-com tone with a hint of thriller. Well, the story still works for me and I find the ML and FL quite interesting. FL was shown to be rich but was kind to people around her, I liked how they didn't make her some cold-hearted heiress who acts all spoiled and then ends up in misery to learn about things the hard way. Rather she was quite good although nosy at times but all with good intentions, even when she was betrayed she was quite concerned about her missing friend and wanted to find her at all costs. ML also is portrayed as someone mysterious who can fight, has lots of connections and money (at least I think so), and is a really kind person as well considering how everyone is ready to help FL just because he asked them to. Although I don't understand why she wants to run away from everyone who is trying to help her, I know she thinks they will start noticing the differences but she can just pretend that she had amnesia after falling into the river and hitting her head. I hope ML finds out about her in the early episodes of the drama and they can both start investigating together.

okay so hear me out I think all the people who are supporting Ha Na and CP as well as those who are against them are both right. From the various comments so far I think both sides are just not trying to understand each other. If we look at the issue the only difference is the viewpoint of both sides for instance if you are someone who watches a drama while abiding by the rules set by the author (for example if it's a historical drama with a royal family you are okay with monarchy, polygamy, marriage for gains, assassinations, etc. because that's the reality of the story inside the drama and you don't let your own bias or thinking affect you and you change your thinking based of data from the story) then you are most likely to be okay with Ha Na and CP ending up together. Whereas if you are someone who keeps the real world and the present reality as the basis for your views and opinions (which is also correct) then you are highly unlikely to support Ha Na and CP pairing up together.
Even if the above-mentioned things are not taken into consideration, many just find it strange because a kid is being paired up with an adult it's not the age gap rather it's because he is not an adult (because usually drama either has older actors perform the role or the age is kept at or over 18 for the character in the story). If the author wanted they could have just avoided the whole age gap things in the relationship altogether. Another side of the argument could be that if the author wanted an age gap relationship in the Joseon era it can only be made possible in the way that is shown in the drama because if he was an adult historically he would already be married and also considering age gap Ha Na has with him she would either be the already married due to law (because she would be about 40 something) or in jail receiving punishment alongside her whole family that too due to law.
In conclusion, just try to understand the different opinions instead of demeaning them or lashing out at each other.

But that's why we have Sa Wol the martial arts master🤣.

Grandfather with ML:🥰🥺
Grandfather with everyone else:😠😠
I really like this drama so far, no wonder it has quite a viewership by seeing how well the story is progressing alongside the rom-com. Although I wish the length of the scenes when ML and FL are at home or are together in general should be more but given that this drama is only going to have 12 episodes I think I will have to compromise🥺. I am also watching My Demon alongside this drama and it was such a bliss seeing the MLs of both dramas being jealous in the same week🤣🤣. The scene in which ML is trying to meditate to keep himself calm reminded me of the scene from Cheer Up when FL was trying to meditate, my mind just by default added "nanun Kwenchana" to the background of that scene🤣. And the whole sequence of scenes, when ML tells FL about the moon rabbit and the aftermath, was so so so so funny.

This drama is next level, the CGI is good, the fight scenes highlight ML's powers and weaknesses well, moreover there is a thriller aspect to it too. I loved ML and FL's bickering scenes especially the scenes where he is trying to hold her hand, plus seeing them both in denial phase this early in the drama also seems new to me. It has been quite a while since I have seen the 8th episode rule most dramas have shifted towards increasing complexity thus dating phase nowadays starts after episode 12 or 13 (recently many rom-coms just end up becoming slight romance), but I think here it will be different maybe earlier or at episode 8 is what I am hoping for.
For the mystery part, I think the JCS or someone related to her maybe her husband killed FL's parents, and then JCS after some realization decided to adopt FL to give her back what was stolen from her. And maybe there is another demon with whom someone has a contract thus stopping the mystery from being solved through supernatural powers due to the client being protected by the demon.

The role is kind of similar to how he was in "lovestruck in the City". They literally took the same personality he played in that drama and copy-pasted it here the simp nature, the way he makes excuses to avoid talking about his ex yet thinks about her, add on it I think they took the selfish phase of FL from loverstruck in the city and made it the whole personality of the FL here (although I like the fact that they are shown to be great in the professions they are playing in this drama). But JCW and SHS are such great actors hope the drama turns out better than what it seems like in the starting episodes or it will be such a waste.

She got the chance... she took the chance...😂😂😂. I really like the ML and FL dynamics of this drama all their scenes together have an extra touch of comedy and humor. Any parts where FL discovers something new are so cute that I kept on rewinding them again and again😂😂. I observed that ML of the modern era pretends to be tough and cold but is similar to the ML from the past although there is a bit of a layer of coldness due to some added traumas and experiences. Both the ML and FL are visually appealing to watch especially when they are in one frame it's almost blinding😍 (same take on the couple in My Demon).

A new addition to the kdrama supernaturals community we now have a demon😂😂. The ML and FL fit their roles perfectly, the comedy with a hint of mystery, suspense, and romance is just the perfect recipe to describe this drama. FL reminds me of Shim Jung Woo from "The Matchmakers "😂 because of all the delusional scenarios she makes up in her mind and her getting nervous and blurting out everything that's on her mind just seems too similar😂😂 to Shim Jung Woo. Although I think it will be a bit strange to see that the ML will have to take FL with him every time he needs to kill someone (to take their soul) or to make a contract to buy someone's soul which doesn't look good when you are on a date with a human😅😂.

Yes, I think so too😭. I think that in the past due to filial duty, the children could never question or hate their parents as they were taught to be always obedient and respectful to them, moreover ML in the past didn't have to suffer that much due to being a noble and might also be a little bit less aware of the dirty politics of the world. Whereas the future ML has to suffer the same with added problems from the outside world maybe that's what makes him act like that.

the comedy is on point😂😂 and the pace of the story is also fast, I guess dramas with 12 episodes or less are really great--The Vigilante, Perfect Marriage Revenge, The Killing Vote, and now this one. I was waiting for this drama especially because of Bae In Hyuk and Lee Se Young, oh god they look so good together😍😍, both are really great in their roles as we can really see how different yet similar ML from the past and present are and how FL is suffering from being thrown into a completely new and strange world. I think it's going to be a light-hearted one as opposed to "My Demon" which has a much more serious tone with a similar theme of the marriage contract. The first 2 episodes really set the stage to make us look forward to the progression of the rest of the story.

this drama was really one of the best historical dramas I have watched one of the key things as opposed to other dramas is that here the writer and director are so good that one moment we are fighting and cursing over some actions of FL or ML but next moment they just make us forget everything and ship them again like crazy😂😂. The ML here is powerful, and assertive, but naive when it comes to how the world works, the FL is smart, cunning, and has a badass aura around her but throws tantrums or fights against the only people who actually care for her like ML and her father (kind of similar to how FL was like to ML in Love like the galaxy although ML and FL of wonderland of love seem much better to me). Even with all their flaws I just ended up melting at the beautiful scenes of them together seriously the portrayal, the writing, the execution, the flow, and the way the dynamics shift from serious to fluffy to betrayals to fluffy are seamlessly directed completely changing the mode of the audience. Even I thought I was crazy as one moment I was writing a comment cursing the character and moments later I am shipping them or supporting them again. However, the only flaw of this drama that kind of stayed with me was how we only see ML coaxing, and apologizing to FL and expressing his love but there was no apology nor explanations from FL to ML even though many of her actions are also problematic and forceful this kind of dynamics is something that just doesn't sit well with me. In dramas some years ago MLs used to be really bad and FLs had to suffer until MLs eventually decided they now liked the FLs so magically it makes up for everything😂 with this they just set aside all the problems he created and lived happily ever after😂 which seemed like the biggest scam to me and now I felt like I was seeing that in gender roles-reversed. Other than that the story, the fights, the CGI, the chemistry between the leads, the direction, etc. were all top-notch. Thank god it has a happy ending or else I would have to drop it at some episode where I consider the end as a happy ending😂.

they were really ambiguous about the whole relationship thing so there is no proper confession scene they kind of just start acting as if they are dating from episode 16-17 before that it's kind of just back and forth with some confessions lines here and there. You will understand what I am saying once you reach there😂😂.

The thing is it's either kill or be killed situation because Li family will eventually kill ML or take all his power to safeguard themselves. Moreover Li family cannot govern the nation and the only reason Cui family isn't doing anything is just because ML is still in power so things are at present optimistic but eventually they will have to kill the Li family and take the throne and in the process they will have to even kill the ML as he will guard his family and his people. So it's kind of a trigger that FL is using to make him realise the reality of his situation before things get ugly.

LCF reminds me of Zhao Xiao from Rebirth for You, he too was delusional and was later exiled at the end of the drama but I hope they kill the one here at least😂. From the trailers, I guess FL is going to use ML's feelings to make him face reality and fight for the throne as unless he is either crown prince or emperor marrying her is not possible as maintaining the power balance is obligatory also he will eventually be killed or at least stripped off of his powers if he doesn't fight back. Also from the episode 30's trailer it seems ML will most probably start a rebellion as under normal circumstances he can't kill a prince for revenge, his brother will at most be under house arrest for a year or so. I think I should take a break until this drama ends or else I might get a lot of emotional damage waiting for the episodes😂😂.

I think it's her way of making sure that Li Ni fights and takes the throne because under normal circumstances what Li Ni wished so far was impossible to achieve without him becoming the emperor but he showed no interest in that. But if Li Ni becomes the crown prince I think the problem will be solved as when it comes to the emperor or crown prince they are allowed to wield as much power and resources as possible to solidify their throne. People who are not either of those are kept under watch and even eliminated if they are seen as a threat to either of the 2. But I think this is gonna make things bad between ML and FL, as this will probably lead to a lot of misunderstanding and "I am not going to explain/apologize" theme.

imagine being so overly powered that the plot has to put shitty characters in powers above you just to hold you back🤣🤣. Even though ML's father an idiot he should have a basic sense of survival or a little bit of greed toward his children, ML is an overachieving child the dream of every parent yet he is being treated so poorly. It's my first time seeing someone in a historical drama who has military power yet is being supported by so many ministers in court who would rather go against the emperor than go against him. I just hope this series doesn't end with him leaving everything behind to live a no-name life with FL traveling the world or something although that's too a happy ending I think His new family and he should get to live with all the fame, amenities, and comfort but I am not saying as in make him the crown prince or something maybe he will leave his title and only be a great general.
