It took me a while to warm up to his character, then I realized I was holding the bad haircut against the character.

That's a typical scenario on this site: blaming the actress for the misogyny of the scriptwriters.

Wuh-oh. Rang dies? So unfair. The trouble with romance is that the main character cannot sacrifice her/him self without a public outcry.

The insanity laced villainous cackle made its appearance in S1:E13. This cackle is required by the Goddess of k-drama to be in every drama with an evil villain. I know this because it's in every k-drama with an evil villain.

Respectfully, I have zero patience with the "but it was based on a true story" justification of the homophobia and bi-phobia of the story. That excuse ignores that the producers choose which story to tell and they chose this story; they choose the manner in which the story is told, and they chose to packed it full to the brim of with the worst anti lesbian and bisexual stereotypes, depicting the lesbian partner as predatory, controlling and eventually psychotic, and the other partner as opportunisticly bi just until she got religion and found the perfect man.

The producers had 100% editorial control and this is how they CHOSE to exercise it.

The first episode was promising, but the series turned into bait and switch, brim full of anti-lesbian, bi-phobic stereotypes. One FL was a deceitful, manipulative liar, the other moved from budding to full blown psychopath.

To me, they worked as friends. As lovers, not so much.

I did. No matter what was said it was a waste of time. Some dude breaks in, starts waving a gun saying I need to die first thing I'm going to do is head to his bedside, kiss his hand, and beg forgiveness. Nah.

I can't figure out why Change2561 made Earth a creepy horn dog. He wasn't like that in the book.

The fact that Change2561 blithely dropped a teaser BL for an obsessive, voyeuristic stalker who broke into his estranged wife's's home, whipped out a gun, and threatened to kill her and another woman before shooting himself is horrifying. Is this truly what passes for "romantic hero" in their world?

Well, okay then, thanks for sharing.

My Demon did a really good job of being what it is: a fantasy romance. It is imperfect, but it has far more ups than downs, even considering the bizarrely implausible nonsensical demise/non-demise of a main character.

My biggest kudos go to FL Kim You Jung. Some actors act the role, others inhabit the role. Kim You Jung crawled into the character of Do Do Hee and gave it everything.

Kim Tae Hoon was icily malevolent as Noh Suk Min. He deserved a more sensible wrap up for his character.

Kim Hae Sook is so so so good as Joo Chun Sook. She's one of my favorite character actors and must be everyone else's favorite too because she's in EVERYTHING. And she's so wonderful she needs to keep being in EVERYTHING.

The fantasy was well conceived and executed, thanks in part to atmospheric shot composition and cinematography. The romance between the leads was smoking. They were adorable together. I could have done without the early episodes' tryst with the Enemies to Lovers trope, but it resolved quickly, if not quite quickly enough for me.

I don't usually have the patience to track multiple character development arcs, but I got invested in each one in My Demon. Script writer Choi Ah Il did a wonderful job wrapping them all up after taking exactly the time it needed to do them justice.

Just one person's opinion, but I enjoyed the later episodes after being mildly bored by the earlier ones. I'm not trying to talk you into picking it back up, though. I've certainly dumped a few dramas in my time.

IMO, Gap didn't follow that mold. Sam was initially the aggressor, but Mon was a bit in secret agent mode with her "Watch me, I can flip this any time I want" attitude after the initial breakthrough. I thought their characters got balanced attention in the drama. That is just one of several reasons why Gap is still my standard for GL.

In love Senior character was tricked into thinking her gf had slept with someone else when that didn't really happen.

Nooooo. Eight episodes is not going to be enough!

I enjoyed it once the romance kicked up, really sweet couple interactions, some quirky interesting side characters and, of course, God.

Episode 9, 53:20, the cackle. The obligatory cackle that Korean drama villains are required to emit. Or emote. Whichever.

QoT had some all around deadly boring plot arcs and instances of cringe worthy cheesy dialog. It also had that kitten, and the single star left on the ceiling, and the 4-leaf clover and the tennis shoes that nearly became their own side characters, and the world's best secretary/scene stealer, and Da Hye who actually really loved her idiot husband Soo Cheol, and mostly it had whatever mojo magic happened when Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun had a scene together.

I don't think it was technically the best movie ever made, but I gotta say, it still hasn't let go of my heart strings... and obviously I'm not the only one.

This was an excellent drama, well written and well acted.
