Doom at Your Service: he need to hold her hand every day before midnight to recharge her so she won't feel pain from her brain tumor.
My Demon: he need to hold her wrist to use his power since his tattoo (the source of his power) is now on her wrist. Ergo, if he doesn't hold her wrist, he cannot access his demon power.
So, these 2 dramas have similar vibes, but different mechanism on how this holding hand/wrist works. And believe me, I ache for BOTH.

Pitying someone comes from the heart. It's not a need. —EPISODE 3
Doom at Your Service, 2021
ID: four gifs showing Doom sitting on a couch, reading a book with the lights on, and Dong-kyung trying to sleep on the couch on her side of the house. Doom appears from the shoulders up, and she appears in a close up shot with her eyes closed. Staring at his book, Doom cheekily says "I have no heart since I'm not human". Almost asleep, Dong-kyung mumbles, "Don't lie. You said you felt the same thing I did… at the same time". Expressionless but clearly taken aback, Doom looks up from his book, stares ahead for a moment, then turns his head fully to stare at her. /end ID.

Myul Mang lived, after death. He lived. That is all that matters.
I love doom at your service so much😭 I'm rewatching it and I think I'll post think pieces on it after each episode.
I've seen so many reviews about people not enjoying the second half of this show and how a stellar cast was wasted on bad writing but for me, this show works even though I agree that the writing really was lacking in places.
It's funny how sometimes the things we like best are not the things that are perfect, but the ones that are flawed and imperfect and slightly inadequate.
It's so hard to define what brings us joy and comfort and what we find irresistible sometimes.
It's like, why do I adore this show even though there are so many shows out there that are so much better? Why do I think so often of these characters in particular? Why do I keep coming back here?
One of my favorite aspects about DAYS is Seo In Guk as Myul Mang. His character is the bedrock of this show from which everything else springs. I love his cynicism, his pessimism, his pain, his intolerance, his indifference, his quiet, simmering anger, his inability to outgrow his annoyance at the world. I love his audacity, his attitude and his insistent desire to destroy everything. I love that he doesn't hold back and that he doesn't try to be other than what he is. I love how the world slowly enraptures him, how it quietly grasps him into its folds, and doesn't let go. I love how he slowly discovers the world.
Myul Mang's entire existence is in nothingness, and then he is slowly brought into life. It is the opposite of what humans experience, for him it is actually life after death.
Myul Mang is hands down my favourite thing about DAYS.
The only thing I wish for was I wish we could have gotten more of his backstory. I wish he had been given a tangible past, a story that would have made the audience aware of where he was coming from, and thus would have made his motivations clearer, so that we know where he is heading.
Myul Mang lived, after death. He lived. That is all that matters.
