Not being human, he neither eats, sleeps, or cries. Although most people would lean on family and friends for love and support during a time of life and death, Dong-Kyung has chosen to remain silent about her cancer diagnosis and pretend like nothing is wrong.Īlthough Myul-Mang’s very existence brings doom wherever he goes, the man was made for humanity – like a butterfly that was created for the flowers in god’s garden. She loves her brother but is often disappointed at his lack of direction and commitment. She lives alone in a small but nice rooftop apartment. Dong-Kyung works as an editor and manager at a web novel company called Life Story and is liked by the writers she is in charge of. Tak Dong-Kyung’s parents passed away when she was a little girl so she and her younger brother were raised on Jeju Island by her single aunt (their mother’s twin sister). Not surprisingly, a groggy, scared, and hopeless Dong-Kyung agrees to the deal while hesitantly taking the hand of Doom.
However, if the contract is broken, the person she loves the most at that very moment will die. Bring doom upon the world!” Interestingly enough, Doom himself overhears her plea and decides to enter into a contract with the despondent young woman, carefully explaining that if she promises to formally wish doom upon the world before she dies, he will shield her from pain during the 100 days she has left and grant her one personal wish.
Turning to alcohol in an effort to cope with her insurmountable trials, or maybe just drown her sorrows, a drunk Dong-Kyung catches a glimpse of a falling star while she is alone on her rooftop and exclaims – “I wish everything stopped existing. Receiving a cancer diagnosis with the probability of living only three more months įinding out from his wife that your new boyfriend is married and will soon be a father, and then discovering a video of your conversation posted on the internet īeing reprimanded by your boss in front of all of your colleagues Ī complete stranger making a secret video of you while you’re on the subway –Īny one of those scenarios would be difficult to handle but poor Tak Dong-Kyung gets all of them dropped on her on the same day. “To die is nothing, but it is terrible to not live.” – Kim Sa-Ram Doom at Your Service is a love story that makes us wonder, would I be willing to give everything I have, including my life, for the one I love?
