One of the Best!!!!
Wow, I just finished this series and I am super sad. I loved this so much and didn’t want it to end. My favorite BL genre is mafia and this definitely did not disappoint. But, oh my gosh, there were twists and turns every episode. I actually binge watched this entire series in one day.I loved the cast so much. They all did a fantastic job. The chemistry was off the charts! I loved the main couple but, wow, Yi and Ai Di were exceptional. The heartbreak, the tension, the denial, and the passion…. just wow.
Don’t miss the behind the scenes episode.
This will definitely go on my rewatch list.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Could have been the next KinnPorsche
I watched this with great expectations. The first episode was intriguing with the whole look into the future for 4 minutes thing. But as the series went on, it changed from intriguing to downright confusing. The 4 minutes became a blur and different realities were so mixed together that you weren’t able to tell what exactly went with what. If this series had been more straightforward, it could have been on the level as KinnPorsche.But, I thought the acting was superb and I am now a bigger fan of these actors. Bible and Jes made a perfect pairing. I especially loved the “dream-like” sequence where they were extremely happy together. The story about Tonkla was heartbreaking and I shed a few tears for that whole situation.
But overall, the way they made it soooo confusing, I didn’t really enjoy it very much and I won’t be watching it again.

Super Cute
Yes, it would have been better if it was longer and with a better plot. This was definitely low budget (with only 5 human beings in the whole series).But, I really want to give them some love. I think the actors did a great job with what they had. And, since Choi Dong Ho admitted he is not a cheerful person in real life, it had to be the director’s choice. And what he produced was super cute.
We hear the reason Minjae is so cold and stand-offish in the last episode. But things turned out well and I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was sweet and lighthearted and made for a perfect lazy afternoon binge watch.

Sweet relationship between a man and his cat
I started watching this 100% because of Yoo Seing Ho. I had just finished I am not a Robot and looked for more from him. This man has it all. My Lord is he handsome and his acting pulls you in.In this series and Robot, he excels at acting out every emotion. When he smiles, his whole face smiles. When he cries, I have never seen such expressive eyes. You can’t help but feel his pain.
I just love this man.
This was a sweet series. I was laughing so hard at the cat. Where did they find a cat that he could literally do anything to and the cat just put up with it? Amazing.
The girl wasn’t that bad. She was very annoying at first but I thought she was just a genuinely caring person to him and the cat.
Good series. Funny, sad, happy.

I really liked it
I did watch the Thai version a while back but can’t say I remember that much about it. it didn’t really stick with me. Just that Zee and Saint made an odd pairing.The Korean version was super cute and not cringy at all. I loved the personalities of all the actors. The funniest thing to me was the fact that the whole school already knew they were a couple before they did. No one blinked an eye. The breakup scene was the best.
The second couple was my favorite though. There was a lot more depth and emotion in their story. Plus those two guys are both super cuties. I could watch them all day long.
This was a very fast watch and it just made me happy!

I really wish I hadn’t watched this
Pros:Jung Hae In - he made it worth every miserable minute I spent on this show.
In the beginning, the chemistry between the leads was off the charts. That is the type of relationship I have always wanted to have.
Cons:
The whole thing was filmed with some sort of drab filter. It was depressing. Most everything was in shades of black and brown.
If I hear “Stand by Your Man” one more time I think I’ll scream. It was played multiple times in a single episode. EVERY episode. Two different singers didn’t help.
Her mother was a HORRIBLE person. She is the most wicked of the wicked witches I have ever seen in a series. Once she found out about their relationship, the whole series turn a dark turn. Nothing about it was enjoyable. She just made everyone miserable including me.
The FL was great in the beginning and I like her as an actress. But, in this role, I ended up hating her. She was the most selfish person and treated the ML so badly when all he tried to do is protect her and love her with all his heart. But, she started sneaking around and lying to him. I was so heartbroken for him. Even though they got back together in the last TWO minutes of the series, I couldn’t be happy for them.
I just really wish I hadn’t watched this in the first place. It was depressing and made me nervous and upset just watching this stupid show. Why did the writers think this would be enjoyable to watch?

Oh God…no
Like most reviewers have already said, this was cute and fluffy and fun up until the last few episodes. I rarely just binge watch episode after episode but I did this one. I really liked it. Then it took a devastating turn.Let me say the thing I HATE the most in dramas is the breakup because “I don’t like you anymore” (when they really do) just to protect the other person. That is the most hurtful thing you can do. Plus, you don’t know how the other person will react if you tell the truth.
But then, on top of that, to be told he was DEAD when he wasn’t. Then for him to return in 5 years? That was plenty of time for her to move on. After that, we had like 5 minutes of them together and it wasn’t satisfying at all. They just sat on the hill talking like nothing had happened. I almost wished he had stayed dead instead of an ending like this. At least, then, it would have been a beautiful, heartbreaking love story.
Who knew a fun, romantic comedy would have such a completely unnecessary and devastating ending.

This would have been a 10
This started out absolutely fantastic. I loved the whole cast. I binged almost 20 episodes in one night. As more and more episodes went by, I’m thinking why are these guys sleeping in the same bed together? Are these guys together? what’s going on? Is this a BL or not? Unfortunately, I found out that the Viki version is chopped and cut so much the whole thing makes no sense. This definitely would have been a 10 for me but I’m still confused about a lot of things and no closure at the end. And what an ending it was. It was like the ending of an episode expecting more in the next. Sorry to the cast that the censures did you so wrong.I can’t say enough about the cast though. The leads were super hot and very fit. What a great idea to have a bodyguard training facility. They are all very talented actors.

Glad I didn’t read the reviews first
I just read a lot of bad reviews and I am sad this isn’t more popular. I know this series has a lot of issues but, call me crazy, it’s one of my favorites. I completely fell in love with this.Ai fell in love at first sight. He is super hot and tries his best to win Nhai over. He is so kind and patient and thinks everything Nhai does is cute. Doesn’t everyone want a partner like that?
Nhai is spoiled rotten and is selfish and forgetful. I loved the whole losing the ducky keychain thing. Super cute. He was annoying when he threw the cactus in the dryer but quickly apologized.
This just emphasizes how good they are matched. Nhai is spoiled and lazy. Ai is not and wants to take care of him. They are perfect together. There are plenty of love scenes and they didn’t disappoint.
I thought there was plenty of story especially when you add in AI’s mother and sister and the whole con job they pulled. That broke my heart. But so proud of Nhai for standing up to her.
The worst part for me were the subtitles. At times they were wrong or off timing. I didn’t know who was speaking. It got progressively worse throughout the series. if they could fix this I would rewatch over and over.

Blown Away!
I just finished this series and I can say that this 100% blew me away. Everything about it was fantastic. Can I give it more than 10/10?Blown Away by:
* The story! So compelling and it kept me on the edge of my seat. It was clever, emotional, funny, intense, and heartbreaking.
* The actors were phenomenal. I have to say War (Joker) deserves a best acting award for this series. He was so incredible. He’s just so versatile. Yin (Jack) was also amazing. You could tell he put everything he had into this role. So talented and so handsome.
* The rest of the cast was great. No one was overly goofy. They were all legitimately funny, serious, and perfect for their roles. But the grandmother stole the show for me. Loved her!
This series was just so good! It was a very high quality production. For me, it’s in my top four along with KinnPorsche, Manner of Death, and The Sign. Watch it!!

Loved this
Funny, I found this show by accident. I am a baby Treasure fan and I just created a Treasure playlist last month. I love their songs but I didn’t know much about them.This show was so fun. I got to know the members on a more intimate level. These boys are so cute, sweet, sensitive, and fun… on top of being super talented!
I felt so bad that some of them were super nervous and shy. But, being idols, we know they aren’t allowed or don’t have time for dating. This experience was priceless for each of them and they all grew because of it.
I will watch and listen to Treasure a lot more because of the series. I love them even more!

Love this!
Wow, these reviews are brutal. A lot of them are picking My Demon apart piece by piece. So what if the story seems familiar in places? So what if there are ridiculous characters?The only thing that matters is if you enjoy the series. Which I did!! And, for that matter, I give it a 10! This isn’t rocket science. This is entertainment and I was thoroughly entertained.
I have never seen a more beautiful couple. I have rarely seen such chemistry between a couple in the many dramas I have watched. Their playfulness was adorable. Their tenderness towards each other was enviable.
I love the supporting characters as well. I still get teary eyed when I think of how the son was mistreated. That’s saying how powerful the emotions are in this series to stay with me.
Loved this so much.

Intense but also comedic
This had the perfect balance. It was an intense story of revenge and some gruesome things happened. Without the added comedy it would have been too much.Song Joong Ki played the part perfectly. I have only ever seen him in The Arthdal Chronicles so to see him in a modern role was completely different. He is a great actor. Although he really only looked cold on the outside, this role demanded many different emotions from him. I especially loved the episode where he had to pretend to be gay to stop an investment from happening. That was just hilarious.
Jeon Yeo Been was fantastic. She was great in A Time Called You but I think this role was far superior. I loved how free she was to speak her mind and dance around and even skip.
Let me say this Taecyeon is an amazing actor. We all know he’s a nice guy but he used none of his real personality for this role. He was either goofy or a monster. This was the first time seeing him act and I plan to watch more. I need to wash this monster character from my mind.
I was super sad and cried for Kwak Dong Yeon. When he asked Vincenzo if he did good, I lost it. This is the second time I’ve seen him die: Vincenzo and Love in the Moonlight.
This was a great series and I rated it 10 but I just don’t think I could watch it again.

With Ryeoun, what’s not to love?
Ryeoun is one of the best actors out there. He can do comedy and drama flawlessly. He puts everything into his roles like play the guitar and sword fighting. Everything just seems so natural with him. Plus he’s gorgeous.This was a great story with a mystery and several twists and turns. You just had to fall in love with all the main characters. But, for me, Kang Hoon was the unexpected star of the show. He was superb with all of the emotions he had to portray in this role. He made me laugh and cry.
Watch this! It may start a little slow but it will be worth it for the second half. So good!

One of the BEST!!
I’m going to try to keep this short so there won’t be any spoilers. This is not an epic drama but it will take you on a roller coaster ride of emotions. This also took you into the world of the deaf which hasn’t been done very much.The acting is superb. The two male leads have stolen my heart big time. Ryeoun and Choi Hyun Wook are just fantastic.
Ryeoun has the most expressive face and acted out every emotion flawlessly. I read that he even learned to play the guitar for this role.
Choi Hyun Wook was great in the heavier drama Weak Hero Class 1 but I think comedy suits him better. He had me laughing so hard at just his silly interactions with his grandmother.
Seol In Ah won me over in Business Proposal and she played her part perfectly.
Shin Eun Soo is a new actress to me but she is beautiful and talented.
No details about the plot. Let’s just say I laughed and cried (happy and sad) several times. I was so caught up in the story and was on the edge of my seat. This was just one of the best!
