ASTRO’s Cha Eun Woo is taking on the role of the hip Catholic exorcist and priest named John, he’s a noble that calls for protecting lives and fighting evil. Despite that, he has a dark and horrible past.

My personal thoughts- written by Jass K.

That’s a very interesting premise. I heard a lot of good things about the webtoon, fans were excited for the remake which has taken a while to confirm the casting due to Seo Ye Ji dropping out of negotiations.

I am surprised Sung Joon is taking on a secondary leading role but I have missed him, I can’t wait to see him in the drama. I am a bit worried about Eunwoo’s acting because he’ll be up against some of the biggest and most experienced in the industry. I hope he’s taking lessons because it won’t be easy to keep up.

The combination between Kim Nam Gil and Lee Da Hee will be interesting to see.
