This drama was brought to my attention by a friend who is a big fan of Park Bo Young. Having watched SWDBS and A werewolf Boy, I can say that I am a fan of her talent. So I started the series with very few expectations based on the synopsis and since I only know a few of the cast I was open to alot of possibilities.

I started the first episode with intense curiosity, and right after the second episode I am ready to drop the series entirely.

(If you haven't completed the Series Please stop here unless you live for spoilers)

THE BAD
1. SLOW PACE - The first six episodes were like watching two turtles in a marathon. The character build up doesn't seem to end up until the end of the 6th episode.
2. CONFUSING PLOT - The MAIN characters that were highlighted on the synopsis were the timid Bong Sun, sexually oriented GHOST and a self centered chef. But after watching the entire show the REAL MAIN characters here are the POLICE MAN and THE DEAD GIRL. BONG SUN and THE CHEF were the biggest most glorified extra's.
3. Potentials unexplored -Cordon could've posed a bigger threat to the love affair but was only given a glimpse of an opportunity. Instead they opted to the PD who remotely left a dent to the story.

THE GOOD
1. CHEMISTRY - JJS and PBY has a certain degree of chemistry that is cute. It ain't as hot as the Song-Song couple but it was enough to keep me from the dropping the show altogether. After watching the series I wished that they are together as a couple in another show with a better story.
2. SUPPORT - CORDON could've been the best third party but was dropped even before his character made progress. Nonetheless his presence kept viewers hanging on their seats.
3. The Main Leads - Park Bo Young truly showed how great an actress she is. Switching from one character to another and making viewers believe that there are two sides of her. It is not new in the industry to have such character and very few are able to pull-it off. While Jo Jung Suk was a new flavor for me, This I believe is his first work that I watched and I am impressed by him. I am now looking forward to watching another drama of his.

THE GREAT

After a very long dragging 16 episode series, it is no doubt that there is only one thing that is GREAT about this show.

IM JOO HWAN

It only took me a few seconds to decide that he is the best part of this series. His last battle with the Evil Spirit was "GOLD". That's quality acting, that deserved an award.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is best to not expect anything because you will not get any.

The drama might have had opportunities for a very compelling story build up but it failed miserably in all of those instances.
There were a lot of Cliches which are both good and "meh" but the worst part is that the story itself doesn't even know where it's going. Loopholes everywhere!!!! Be careful not to fall into one because you'll never recover.
At first I was interested as to how the Original BS can fight off the irritating Ghost and redeem her character and become a worthy opponent to create a more interesting story - But then the character didn't, so okay, move-on.

FINAL SAY:

I was led to believe that the story indeed is about how the love story goes. But NO. It is all about the Ghost and her Grudge!
It feels to me as if they made the main story (a could have been potentially thrilling and beautiful story) just a side plot and placed a Cliche Love Story (which could've been great due to the chemistry between the Leads but they failed miserably to deliver) as the main Plot.

I would still recommend it for watching despite my obvious disappointment. It is due to the fact that I was impressed by PBY JJS and IJH.
