My Review:

I must say despite of me being scared of watching horror films which I thought this was from the very first episode, it became one of the most enjoyable and perfect K-Drama I’ve ever seen. It was truly perfect from start to finish. I have to re-watched it to do this review and I thought I might see some flaws but there’s really nothing to find. Oh, well, maybe their kissing together can be better but knowing Korean Dramas as I do, I can live with it. Although, ghost stories have been done before, but this one is truly fun and done to perfection. Suspenseful but just the right dose of scary that you won’t end up being scared alone in a room or not able to sleep well into the night. From the very first episode up to the last one, it has done what a great K-Drama should be. It has love story, drama, suspense, horror and action. Normally when a film blends so many genre in a film or drama it will turn out into a big mess but this K-Drama was executed in a manner that has brilliantly used seeing a ghost to provide its viewers different flavors of genre so entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Each episodes has its own stories to tell. From the most serious to lighter subjects. So, why did I say this K-Drama is perfect? Well from the story, the direction, the actors, the OST (sound track), and the ending are all great. I don’t want to ruin it for you by giving you a spoiler because believe me if you haven’t seen any K-Drama yet, this is the best K-Drama you should start with to watch. This kind of K-Drama is the reason why there are a lot K-addicts like me out there.

Would I recommend this K-Drama? 110% YES. You SHOULD watch it. You won’t regret watching all deliciously fun 17 episodes. There’s no dragging moments.
