What’s the Show About? Plot Synopsis
Doom At Your Service revolves around a web novel editor Tak Dong-kyung and a divine being named Myul Mang. Dong-kyung works as an editor at a webcomic publishing company named Life Story. Ever since her parents died in a car accident, she’s been working hard and leading a fairly ordinary life. However, her seemingly normal life decides to deal all the bad cards to her on a single day. In a timeframe spanning just one day, she is struck by multiple bad experiences and shattering revelations. She comes to know that her boyfriend is actually married and a father-to-be. Her superior at work scolds her, and a pervert stalks her before she falls in a sinkhole. To top all that, she gets harrowing news that she’s dying from Glioblastoma, with only three months left. Morose and helpless after the inconceivable news about her death, she tries to drink her problems away. Sitting atop her apartment’s rooftop, she spots a shooting star and drunkenly wishes for the world to end. Enter Myul Mang, a messenger between gods and humans who just so happens to hear Kyung’s wish. Now Myul is a divine entity who was born between dark and light. The sole purpose of his existence is defined by his fate which is to bring upon doom. He smiles, and a life ends. When he breathes, countries vanish. If he takes a walk, the climate cycle goes into a frenzy. He does not will any of it, and it just happens as he goes about his fated existence. However, he’s now tired of it, and when he hears Kyung’s wish, he decides to go ahead and fulfill it.
