In tvN's 'The Devil is a Black Dragon,' Moon Ga-young captivates the home audience as a mature healer goddess who toys with the heart of the younger Deputy Minister Choi Hyun-wook.
The tvN Monday-Tuesday drama 'The Devil is a Black Dragon' (directed by Lee Soo-hyun, written by Kim Soo-yeon, produced by Studio N, planned by Studio Dragon) features an office romance of 'Deputy Minister Killer' team leader Baek Soo-jung, who suffers from a first love that has become a dark history, and a 'third-generation chaebol' Deputy Minister Ban Joo-yeon, who lives while hiding her inner geek self of the Black Dragon. With the irreplaceable romance chemistry between Moon Ga-young (Baek Soo-jung) and Choi Hyun-wook (Ban Joo-yeon), 'The Devil is a Black Dragon' has turned the home audience's world pink, ranking first in 136 countries overseas on global OTT platform Rakuten Viki during its first week of airing, first in the Hallyu Asia category on Japan's online streaming service U-NEXT, and first for Korean dramas on Indonesia's representative OTT platform Vidio, aimed at global success.

'The Devil is a Black Dragon' showcases Moon Ga-young's true value. The character 'Baek Soo-jung,' played by Moon Ga-young, is accustomed to fighting against the corrupt Deputy Minister to survive in a harsh world, and she starts a new romance with the younger Deputy Minister who helps her forget her painful past love. With her lovely yet cunning acting skills, Moon Ga-young elevates the narrative of Baek Soo-jung, who battles her dark history of first love and experiences two romances.
Moreover, Moon Ga-young demonstrates exceptional skills in capturing not only the heart of the younger Deputy Minister Choi Hyun-wook within the story but also the hearts of viewers. In a meeting room where only Soo-jung and Joo-yeon are present, she cleverly hands Joo-yeon their favorite chocolate milk, and after entering Joo-yeon's 'secret room,' she notes, 'I got to know more about you, Deputy Minister,' understanding and supporting Joo-yeon's geek life, making his heart race. To maintain Joo-yeon's dignity, she even gets an autograph from his favorite rock star on his behalf and succeeds in taking pictures, further capturing his heart. In this way, Soo-jung, with her charming and determined allure, breaks down the walls of Joo-yeon's heart, which had been trapped in her own cave.
In the released preview for episode 5 of 'The Devil is a Black Dragon,' Soo-jung's straightforward remarks toward Joo-yeon grab attention. During her first business trip to the local area, Soo-jung introduces Joo-yeon, who comes to help her, as her younger brother, eliciting laughter. Then, addressing the consistently confusing Joo-yeon, she boldly asks, 'But do you have feelings for me?' raising curiosity about episode 5.
As she becomes a refuge in Joo-yeon's heart and creates a strong pink whirlwind, viewers are eager to see how 'healer goddess' Soo-jung will perform and what changes in their relationship will occur in the upcoming episode 5, as well as whether the two will learn that they were each other's dark history first loves.
The tvN Monday-Tuesday drama 'The Devil is a Black Dragon' will air its fifth episode today (3rd) at 8:50 p.m.
