Well I had high expectations for this drama, considering the great cast and interesting synopsis, but sadly it was just a so so drama.
I have seen Jun ki in other dramas and he had done a great job, here too he was good but not great (or maybe its his character here thats not so great)
Min Ah, I think was a better gumiho than the ghost Arang, although I liked her as a fiesty rebellous ghost in the begining, she got quite boring in the latter episodes.
The story was different but not gripping. The begining episodes were good and then as the drama progresses, the story slows down to a crawling pace making it slightly boring.
The love story is there but was quite mild and the chemistry quite lukewarm. So dont expect too much on that front. The romance of the other couple was more interesting than the leads.
The ending episodes are slightly better as the story picks up some pace and ties up all the loose ends, but sadly there is not much story there to carry it for 20 episodes.
Finally on an ending note, watch it if you are a Jun ki/Min Ah fan. They look great even if their characters are not that great, and dont expect too much, then you will be fine. report I found this review Helpful Not Helpful
