My Demon Episode 9: God asks Song Kang the demon to choose between him & Kim Yoo-Jung
The latest episode of My Demon picks up from where the previous episode left off. Demon Jung Gu-Won and Do Do-Hee seal their feelings with a kiss and spend the night together. At the same time, the clocks at the demon’s house stop working. The following day, the couple goes on an early Christmas date and spends quality time together at Han River. The demon talks about how, although he hadn’t met God, he could never begin to like it.
Do-Hee calls the demon her “guardian.” The duo proceeds to eat at a restaurant when Do-Hee’s stepsister clicks her photos from afar. Do-Hee catches wind of someone but pays little heed. As they return home, she and the demon hear the same song played when the masked man almost killed Do-Hee. She stands in shock, but the demon dances with her to take her mind off it.
Meanwhile, Noh Sok-Min (Kim Tae-Hoon) is preparing for the upcoming election for chairperson with his son Noh Do-Gyeong (Kang Seung-Ho). He talks to his son about preparing him well to take charge eventually. Sok-Min stresses having his blood run the company, unlike his mother, Madam Ju (Kim Hae-Sook), who preferred her adopted child, Do-Hee.
The following day, Do-Hee prepares to sign Noh Seok-Min’s document about withdrawing her name from the election when Gu-Won asks her to do otherwise. He asks her to wait until they identify the killer, to which she agrees. The demon, however, is unable to recharge himself and wonders why. Meanwhile, Joo Seok-Hoon arrives and reaffirms his interest in finding Gu-Won’s real identity.
While Do-Hee goes out for a drink with her assistant, Gu-Won asks the police to draw the killer’s sketch, which amounts to only half of his face, considering that is how much the demon saw. After receiving the full sketch, he asks the Wild Dogs to search for the culprit. Meanwhile, Jin Ga-Yeong (Jo Hye-Joo) arrives and asks Gu-Won to stop being with Do-Hee. He gives her a final warning and leaves.
Do-Hee gets drunk and spends some time with her assistant. Gu-Won takes her home, and the two share some fun moments. Meanwhile, the Wild Dogs are on the lookout for the killer. Eventually, the killer goes to the main culprit, promising to kill the demon. Finally, Noh Sok-Min emerges from the dark, revealing himself to be behind all of it. Not only does he attempt to kill Do-Hee, but he also murders his mother, Madam Ju.
Seok-Min kills the masked man and goes home to burn his gloves. The following day, the police identified the man as Gi Kwang-Chul. But when they try to catch him, they find him burnt to death. Moreover, they also tell Gu-Won and Do-Hee that the killer stabbed Kwang-Chul with a knife. Gu-Won realizes it’s the same knife that the man used to attack him.
The demon goes to his house to find the audio bug that Kwang-Chul had previously installed. He realizes that the clocks have stopped working. Adding events together, he meets the woman, who turns out to be God. She asks him to choose between himself or Do Do-Hee. He can only get his powers back if Do-Hee dies. At the same time, Ga-Yeong meets Seok-Hoon and tells him that Gu-Won is the demon.
