With Netflix K-drama Genie, Make a Wish , screenwriter Kim Eun-sook ( Goblin ) returns to the fantasy rom-com genre. In the 13-episode epic, Our Blues ’ Kim Woo-bin stars as Iblis, a Satanic genie who is utterly convinced of humanity’s inherent greed.

Following humanity’s creation, he refused to bow to the beings, and was banished to hell as a result. However, he made a deal with God: as long as he proved that all humans were corruptible, by successfully provoking their greed in at least one of three wishes, he would be free.
