Check out how fans are reacting as SBS confirms the release date for Song Kang and Kim Yoo-jung's upcoming drama, My Demon.
In the drama, Song Kang is set to portray the role of a demon named Jung Koo-won. Being a demon, he has been trading human souls with their ongoing problems in life for over 200 years. In an unfortunate incident, he loses his power after getting entangled with Kim Yoo-jung, who will play the role of Do Do-hee, a rich chaebol who is considered rude, outspoken, and is hated by many people.
As Song Kang's character Jung Koo-won and Do Do-hee become entangled with each other, they decide to enter into a marriage contract for their individual interests - the former wants to regain his power, but the latter ends up falling in love with a demon whom she considers more considerate than the humans surrounding her.
The drama is helmed by director Kim Jang-han, known for You Raise Me Up, and the screenwriter Choi Ah-II, known for hit dramas like Mr. Queen.
My Demon featuring Song Kang and Kim Yoo-jung is set to premiere on Netflix every Friday and Saturday, starting November 24, 2023.
