In Greek mythology, King Midas had the ability to turn everything he touched into gold. To have the Midas touch means that what you do tends to make wealth.
When Dionysus tells Midas that if he washes his hands under water, everything that he turned into gold would turn back to normal. The curse would go away too.
Midas was a guy who had the ability to touch anything and it would immediately turn into gold so saying you have the Midas touch means whatever you do becomes good.
The main complication of King Midas and his golden touch is that his ability to turn everything he touches into gold becomes a curse rather than a blessing. Initially, he revels in his newfound power, but soon he realizes that he cannot eat or drink, as all food and water turn to gold. This leads to his isolation and despair, culminating in the tragic moment when he accidentally turns his beloved daughter into a golden statue. Ultimately, Midas learns that wealth and material possessions cannot replace the joy and love in life.
King Midas said to Apollo, "Everything that I touch will turn to gold."
King Midas received the gift of the golden touch as a reward for his hospitality to the satyr Silenus, a companion of the god Dionysus.

However, Midas soon realized the curse of this gift when even food and drink transformed into gold, leading to his regret and desire to reverse the wish. This story highlights themes of greed and the consequences of one’s desires.
