When Destiny Meets a Demon review (Dropped)
Let me start by saying this: I do not like transmigration dramas. It’s one genre I avoid like the plague. Alongside youth dramas, they sit firmly on my personal “I can’t watch this” list.
That said, I did give another transmigration drama by Wang Yilu a try once: Yummy, Yummy, Yummy.
It had potential because the idea of a comedy about a transmigrated family appealed to me, but things went sideways and I ended up dropping it, just like so many transmigration dramas before it.
So, when I decided to try When Destiny Brings the Demon for this month’s challenge, my expectations were not high. I told myself I’d watch two episodes, write a quick report, and move on with my life.
I’ve always found Wang Yilu, really funny. I first discovered her in I Am Nobody, so I already knew she had great comedic timing. Even though her previous transmigration drama lost me midway, the comedic moments before that were genuinely enjoyable and this show leans into that. At least in the first four episodes I watched.
Now, Arthur Chen: I knew nothing about him before this, but consider me educated. I have to admit this man is magnetic. I can absolutely see why people tune in just for him.
The first two episodes were pretty typical for the genre. What kept me going was Wang Yilu’s performance as a self-proclaimed salted fish (a lazy slacker). Watching her try to slack off but only to end up working hard for a scary Grandmaster anyway was comedy gold.
And the modernisms she brings to the ancient world was hilarious, calling Sima Jiao “boss,” asking about employee benefits, even mentioning KPIs. (Girl, I relate to your pain.)
I have to say, besides Arthur Chen being, er, hot, I found his character interesting. Maybe I just like powerful characters who are sealed for hundreds of years away by evil sect leaders (Yuan Zhong, is that you??)
I’ll admit this one goes down easier because of the pairing of Arthur Chen and Wang Yilu, and I mostly find it cute. Also, special mention to Sima Jiao’s black snake ! The most adorable aide ever.
When I started the drama, my interest level was about 60%; not a full-blown obsession, maybe slightly below “kinda interested” but enough to keep me watching.
However, life got busy, I got distracted by other dramas … and I just never went back.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the show per se. Fans of the drama said that the hugs and kisses between our leads were really sweet to watch, but I honestly wasn’t terribly invested in their relationship. They had chemistry, I suppose, but the show’s predictable xianxia transmigration plot didn’t have that extra spark that would make look forward to it at the end of a work day, let alone binge it.
Maybe I’ll watch it between intense shows, but the motivation is super low.
I think Destiny is a great pick when you’re in the mood for something light, funny, and easy to watch without overthinking.

I’m using my iPhone without a case and I managed to drop it for the first time today on a stone ground. It took it pretty well and got away with some minor scratches to the metal frame on the right side and nothing else even though it landed face first on the ground. The display is still flawless, that new Ceramic Shield glass is really great. I’m still annoyed it happened to me because I still don’t understand how it just fell out of my hand when I grabbed it from the table.
