My Demon (마이데몬)

Do what's best for you.

Because that's what's best for me.

They're all dead.

Madam Ju,

Mom, and Dad.

Everyone I've ever loved is dead.

And you'll die…

because of me too.

I don't care.

Your wound.

It shouldn't get wet.

You…

Your powers…

My powers…

are back.

EPISODE 9 THE UNMASKED TRUTH

Is this why…

humans willingly become foolish?

What's wrong?

When did you wake up?

A while ago.

Was I snoring?

-I wouldn't mind worse things than that. -So I was?

-No, you weren't. -Are you sure?

Yes. So let me see your face.

No.

Why not?

I don't know. I'm feeling a bit shy.

Let's go out. I'm hungry.

I thought a cup of pour-over coffee was all you needed.

I know. Maybe it's because I'm almost human now.

You didn't book the whole place today.

I realized

it might not be a bad idea to eat among humans.

With so many of them around,

it's nice and lively.

One couple set, please.

I'm afraid that's only available during Christmas, sir.

But that's the whole reason we're here.

Can't we just consider today as Christmas?

To commemorate my mingling with humans.

We don't have the ingredients, sir.

Is that right?

Then let's find another place that serves couple sets.

We'll just have two of these, please.

Yes, ma'am.

Isn't this discrimination against demons?

Why are couple sets only available on Jesus's birthday?

Let's come back on Christmas and celebrate with your favorite cake.

Are you telling a demon to celebrate Jesus's birthday?

So you don't want to?

No, I don't mean that.

It's not that I don't want to. I was just saying.

But why does everyone make such a fuss over Christmas?

Christmas somehow makes you excited.

As if you were a kid again.

Now I see

why everyone gets so noisy and rowdy during Christmas.

I'll do my best as my name suggests.

I don't mean to brag,

but I once got set up with a chaebol.

The famous heiress fell in love with me at first sight

and kept pestering me to register our marriage.

But I told her, "I refuse to become a chaebol's dog."

"I shall become a hunting dog for the public."

I coldly and resolutely turned her down.

A hunting dog?

Is that why you try to smell everything?

How about another round someplace else?

Love at first sight, my foot.

-Give me your wrist. -What for?

I'll teach him a lesson so he won't run his mouth about you again.

Since he wishes to be a hunting dog,

I could give him the nose of--

Forget it.

I'm the one who suggested registering the marriage and bailed.

Why are you taking that sleazebag's side?

This is so annoying.

By the way, did I tell you?

Tell me what?

I'm not going to work today. It's the company's anniversary.

Really?

What on earth is going on?

Why is Director Jeong unhappy about Do Do-hee's withdrawal?

Shouldn't he be happy now that she's safe?

Goodness.

Is he still asleep?

I love not going to work.

I thought you loved going to work.

I thought so too

until I fell for a demon.

So what do humans usually do on a date?

They usually grab a bite and have coffee.

That's about it.

How insignificant.

Even if it's with me?

What is it?

I'm outside your door, Director Jeong.

Open up.

I'm not home right now.

Where are you then?

We're at the Han River.

That's right. We're on a date.

-In your condition? -I'm fully recovered.

CALL ENDED DIRECTOR JEONG

What did I miss?

I've been wondering.

What are those insignificant-looking things?

-Those? -Yes.

They're tandem bikes for couples.

Couples…

For couples?

Let's try one of those!

It'll be extremely insignificant.

I love insignificant things.

Let's go.

-What? -Come on.

Where are we going?

-Let's get on one of those bikes. -But…

Why are you sitting in front?

Hold on, look at that!

-What? -Over there!

Let's try that insignificant thing too.

Is everything for couples these days?

Shall we?

-Sure, let's go. -Let's go.

-Here we go. -Okay.

-Let's go. -I'm lifting my feet.

Here we go.

-Higher! -Higher!

-I said higher! -Up!

What could it be?

-Higher! -What would be the most effective way

for her to screw us over while our guard is down?

-Higher! -Could it be…

-No way. -Even higher!

Then what about…

No, that's not it either.

My head is splitting, for crying out loud.

I remember my IQ being pretty high, but have I been drinking too much?

All my brain cells seem dead.

Whatever.

I'm more of a doer than a thinker.

-So cute. -I like this place.

Nothing is more beautiful than man-made landscapes.

Isn't it usually the opposite?

I prefer human creations to those of God.

That's why I'm more of a collector than a traveler.

Do you not like God?

Does anyone like their boss?

Even though I've never met God in person,

I can't seem to get attached.

Watching the world deteriorate for 200 years didn't help either.

I wonder what your life has been like

for the past 200 years.

An insignificant human being could never fathom a demon's existence.

I'm not trying to fathom you.

I just want to accept you the way you are.

Apparently, demons used to be the guardians of mankind.

Is that true?

Daiomai.

It's an ancient Greek word meaning "to share the same fate."

The word "demon" comes from that word.

"To share the same fate."

So I was right about us sharing the same fate.

Then how did they end up becoming evil?

Let's say I gave in to the hardships in life.

Humans turn to the dark side after just a few years of work.

I had to do this for 200 years.

I guess you're not too bad.

Then you're back to being your original self.

You're my guardian.

Let's go.

Okay.

Customer number 82, your couple drink set

and complimentary plush toy are ready.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

I'm starting to think

humans are insignificant yet adorable at the same time.

It's as if I took in a kitty

and ended up caring about every stray cat on earth.

Who would've known affection could be this contagious?

Are you now comparing me to a cat instead of a longhorn beetle?

What do you want, babe?

Whatever you're getting, babe.

If you don't like being called kitty, then what about "babe"?

No.

Or you could call me hubby.

You must be crazy.

What do you mean?

I am your hubby.

-Let's just go with kitty. -No.

Look, it's beautiful.

It is.

Seriously, nothing ever gets past her.

My goodness.

Nice.

This one's nice too.

Every single picture looks flawless.
