Is just me or did he renounce his “demon-ness” when he gave Do He back her life. Maybe he comes back as a Guardian?
Here’s hoping this show doesn’t bring us misery with a bleak ending 🤞

I’d describe HL as a little more slice of life - calm and steady without too much drama. It’s very sweet and definitely driven by the believable interaction between the leads. My favourite time period is from episode 8 onwards - college and relationship building. I happen to love slow and steady build up, but I know others may prefer more action. Watching episode 3 of Handsome Siblings now - lots of action there and very fun! CZY’s character is very mischievous! :)

Hi,
I think I’ve scrolled past Handsome Siblings and maybe (?) Our Secret on Netflix - will have a look at the 3 dramas you’ve both suggested. I think maybe my expectations are sky high after watching Hidden Love….
Thank you both and hope you are having a good day! 🙏

Thank you for taking the time to answer and sorry for the late reply - real life obligations got in the way!
Googling the book right now! Very excited - thanks again 😊

Just now watched this part - I agree!!!
He is such a hurt and lonely soul but found connection with her family/ older brother, happiness and a sense of belonging when he lived in her home town for university!
He was obviously fond of both her and her family! He would definitely have felt bad/ confused when she faded out of his life :(

I’m enjoying this gentle and beautiful coming of age/ slice of life series! The male and female leads are so, so good at emoting subtly (especially the gorgeous young actor who plays ML! Haven’t seen him in anything before, but he is so good in Hidden Love and delivers a thoughtful and understated performance which draws you in).
What else is he in that’s this good..? Any recommendations?

The director and whoever cast this deserve a raise!
Also, the FL’s wardrobe (at Uni) is so, so cute!!

Also anyone know if the book has been
translated into English…???? I’d love to read it. I always feel that English
subtitles don’t always convey the intended meaning…
Sorry for all the questions…!

You are right. The actor described the ML as a “narcissist “in an interview and mentioned he often felt second hand embarrassment with some of the lines/ behaviour he had to portray for the Demon character.

Spoiler warning ahead:😬:
Demon does evolve in the show - crossing paths with DoDo He, does reawakens human memories and also his compassion/ softer emotions for “insignificant “ humans etc. I won’t “spoil” too much more - but, later episodes explain why he “lost” his humanity :(
FL is prickly due to being guarded and growing up surrounded by enemies ready to take her
down - the extent of the viciousness of her family is gradually revealed. Her guard slowly falls away when she meets the ML- this story arc is super cute and fun to watch - most of the humours aspects of the show and my favourite scenes are aligned to this story arc!

Sorry for the looong post :) hope it helps your decision.

Wow!! Mr Demon dreamed his future!🤣

The Show’s a mood - fun, chaotic comedy, romance . The storyline is written like a string of events that are gradually revealed/ resolved after a couple of episodes. The big mystery is supposed to be uncovering the main villains history/ motives - but, I agree with others that this part is dragging a little (no shade! Just my opinion).
As a viewer, you can look forward to watching the spectacularly gorgeous leads being cute and interacting in an adorable way!
Not to say that both actors aren’t good -they are. Song Kang strength is emoting, but seems to be still learning about how to balance comedy (but still does an awesome job).
Sorry for he long post! Hope it helps with you decision!

I’m watching Hidden Love too!!! No skipping at my end for that one either - the best C drama I have seen (although I haven’t watched many!)
I look forward all week to watching both on Friday nights! Popcorn + drama therapy!

I wouldn’t normally dignify comments like this with a response but this was just not at all OK. So here goes:

Different people will look for a viewer experience that works for their individual preferences! Not everyone is the same nor will they like the same things - the world would be a a boring place if that was the case!

BUT - judgment of someone’s individual taste is never OK! Writing negative reviews that personally attack the actors/ production team/ enthusiastic viewers of drama is shameful, mean and immature!!

PS: sorry for the long rant 😡

PPS: I plan to watch Parks Marriage Contract after My Demon (which I love) and I’m sure it will be excellent too!!

So well said! Different people will look for a viewer experience that works for their individual preferences! Not everyone is the same nor will they like the same things - the world would be a a boring place if that was the case!

BUT - judgment of someone’s individual taste is never OK! Shading actors/ actresses for doing their job is bullying and writing negative reviews that personally attack the actors/ production team/ enthusiastic viewers of drama is shameful, mean and immature!!

Never thought red gingham could look so corporate (and cute)!
Thanks for sharing :)

It’s one of my favourite scenes too! I love the gang leader - comic timing was spot on!

I think I heard the director mention he made the tango scene intentionally very challenging so the actors had to practice the scene for months before filming even started!! All that practice meant the actors got to know each other and leant to work together before filming on set.
Tango boot camp!! :)🕺

Yes, I noticed the the immediate switch into professional mode with the romantic scenes as well!
Agree - they do seem to have an easy going and relaxed vibe when working. Everyone around them is smiling too - their happy energy must be infectious :)
Thanks for explaining re seniority and for posting the link :)

Thanks for sharing! Impressed at the high level of professionalism and maturity Kim Yoo Jung demonstrated at such a young age. Her acting is so good for someone only in her early 20’s and she also seems to have a down to earth and fun personality. Hope she keeps this balance as she becomes more famous!

True - but the fun part is interpreting what it means to the narratives progression.

Makes so much sense!!! God lady didn’t expect either of them to be selfless- and both were!
So, that changed the outcome and maybe Gu Won’s power source? Guardian now..?

Thanks for being fashionably late! You have given us another opportunity to talk about how memorable and cool the tango scene was! :)
