On October 27, the production team of the upcoming rom-com My Demon released a teaser showcasing the bittersweet dynamics between Do Do Hee and Jung Koo Won

The teaser begins with Do Hee extending her hand to Koo Won to save him from drowning. But, even as she is losing consciousness underwater, she does not let go, saying, "I have to let go of this man if I want to survive. It's all because of his name, Koo Won [meaning savior in Korean]." 

Then we see the black cross tattoo on Koo Won shifting to Do Hee's wrist. Koo Won, who then loses his abilities, holds Do Hee's wrist by force and claims ownership, asserting, "It might be on your wrist now, but it's mine."

However, Do Do Hee is no pushover. In response, she slaps him, flinging him like a toy. She is frustrated by Koo Won's ungratefulness as she risked her life to save him.

Do Hee doesn't believe Koo Won, who says he is a demon. To prove it to her, Koo Won grabs Do Hee's wrist to use the powers. Interestingly, when he does that, it seems his abilities resurface.

The chaebol heiress then strikes a deal with the demon telling him to become her bodyguard and threatening him with erasing the tattoo if he doesn't comply.

The teaser previews the coming of another bickering duo who promise to make us laugh non-stop.

Actress Kim Yoo Jung takes on the role of Do Do Hee, a chaebol heiress who does not trust anyone. Surrounded by enemies and having realized the realities of her harsh world early in life, she became a cynical woman.

Song Kang plays the role of the flawless yet deadly demon Jung Koo Won. As a demon who has enjoyed eternal life by making dangerous yet sweet deals with humans, he has been reigning as a predator for over 200 years, looking down on humans. However, his life takes a turn when he becomes entangled with Do Do Hee and loses his powers. This fascinating turn of events leads him to become her protector.

My Demon will premiere on November 24 on Netflix. Watch the teaser below
