Oh My Ghost

DIABETES Alert! This drama contains so much sweetness that it made my blood sugar shoot up!

STORY: This drama is perfect for those who wants light comedy, lots of romance with dreamy characters. I admit that after finishing the first 3 episodes I still could not understand the hype. Then, it started to get better.

ACTING/ CASTt: The story is quite unique but the scenes are full of Kdrama cliches. Typical or not, they were artistically done, carefully executed and beautifully finished. This drama will not be enjoyable for those who have very particular eyes because the story itself is full of flaws. But if you are going to set aside your critical mind and just embrace the beauty of this drama just the way it is, then I can guarantee 100% percent that you will love it. Sometimes, a dish is more enjoyable when it is served without the fancy plating.

Jo Jung Suk (aka Chef Kang) is definitely every woman's dream. He's hot yet so cool, he's rich yet so down to earth, he's overly confident yet the jealous type, he's badass in the kitchen yet cries like a baby for his girl. Most of all, he's so darn sweet that he almost gave me a toothache. And yes, Jo Jung Suk played the character really well. SPOT ON!
While Chef Kang is like a dream, Park Bo Young (aka Na Bong Seon) is the slap of reality. She is like the most women I know. She's hardworking but doesn't complain, humble, helpful and kind.
These 2 actors have the most realistic chemistry I have watched so far. I love the skinship and the real kisses (not the cardboard-kissing type couple in most Kdramas).
But what really caught my eye is the superb acting of Im Joo Hwan (aka Officer Choi). He was hands down the best actor in this drama. The switching of personalities is not easy but it does seem like a piece of cake for Joo Hwan. He's one of the actors that I am going to start to follow from now on.

OVERALL: This is a truly an enjoyable ride in Kdramaland. The characters are so easy to love, so endearing that it makes me hard to let them. I hope that there would be another series that has the same caliber as Oh My Ghost.

It's really a great drama, the story goes fast, and switching nicely from comedy to romance to creepiness. The cast s also nice, especially the male cast. Those searching for a refreshing romance story will definitively fall in love with the character created by Jo Jung Suk (Chef :)) ). He's absolutely perfect in this one. I think all the chemistry is his merit, btw, really loved him in King2Hearts, where he stared as Eun Si Kyung (I remember when his character died - it was tragedy to me, really cared for him in that drama also). I gotta watch this guy, as he seems a really decent actor without following the cliches for a romantic drama.
The action is also good, the idea - not bad. Overall, this one will make you watch it fast, as it is intriguing enough and interesting enough! A good summer choice

This show is amazing, hands down. I've passed by this certain kdrama on Netflix many times and I never seemed to pay any attention to it, but one day I decided to click it and watch it while I was eating.. you know, just to kill some time. I LOVED it. It was like I could NOT be separated from my laptop. I HAD to watch the next episode. This show made me laugh, tear up, and just plain happy from the chemistry the two main characters exchanged. The kitchen crew made me smile and laugh so much. You could tell they were really enjoying their roles. If I were to be honest, when the first episode played I wasn't that interested, but I promise you, you won't regret it. God, I love this show so much. This won't be the last time I'm watching this. This show is so good I just had to leave a review. My first EVER review!

Not your typical romantic comedy. The character Kang Seon Woo is great, facial expressions are too cute and he was just fun to watch. Great chemistry between each of the charters. LOVED Shin Sun Ae character, fun and bubbly and just great to watch. Na Bong Seon character was lovely. Though I do not care for the that type of characters that are supposed to be mosquito voice weak and shy. I wanted her to take charge more and figure out what was going on and try to help the ghost more. But se grows on you and eventually becomes a bit stronger though was was not my favorite. Loved the mother daughter relationship between the Shaman and Shin Sun Ae character. The bad guy was good, he sure did do evil really good. He was like a light switch, back and forth between comical and evil. Great message from the drama. Enjoyed all the playful scenes between the cooks and the lead couple Shin Sun Ae character & chef when Na Bong Seon was possessed (or when her role required her to be upbeat and charming). STill great but I think I would have been even more pleased if I didn't have to sit through so many episodes. I was becoming impatient waiting for things to move along and people to figure things out. I even would go as far as saying that I would have been fine if chef ended up with the other girl.
