LET GO BACK TO PRE-2020 AND ENJOY GOOD OLD DRAMAS
Its been a minute since I met wrtiters that get it right from the begining to the end and i will say this Oh my ghost's writers did an amazing job writting captivating dialogues.WHat was funny was funny,what was serious was serious and everything in between.I will admit that I normally skip fantasy/spritual tropes but i dont know how i pressed play on this one,Maybe Its because am going back in times with dramas pre-2020 when directors and producers were giving us well thought off scripts or maybe Park bo young brought me here from "Tomorrow with you" She is slowly becoming one of my favorites actresses.but the stars of the show were Chef Kang Sun-woo's restaurant staff namely ,Seo joon/Cordon,Heo Min Soo,Choi Ji Woong and JO Dong Cheol.These guys carried the whole show on their backs, the brotherhood,the bromance and the family connection were out of this world.I have never seen such a team of individals in a drama that will go to the end of the earth for their leader.
The Kitchen scenes were so real that you wanted to vidit the restaurant and hear them say "Fire" or "yes chef" they brought the comedy,the wittiness,they brought the craze and anything in between.
I will not spoil the story by talking about the ghost part so please watch it and you will not regret it.

Now coming to the actings...There was no overacting at all..Each and everyone in the whole team played well. Also, the fact that they were been able to see the girl who acted as the ghost in real life but, acting as not able to see her was great. I loved all the chef's acting very much. Especially the sous chef was so charming in his talking and he always cared for Bong Seon like he was her brother.
Oh! By the way. When I started watching this drama I was just so startled to hear the name Na Bong Seon again as it reminded me of Do Bong Soon from Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. And also I've become a big fan of Park Bo Young's acting after that drama.
So that's all about my review..If you are reading this then again I'll tell you to watch this drama even if you don't believe in fantasies. And lastly, remember:
YOU ARE LOVELY
I AM LOVELY &
THIS DRAMA IS LOVELY
LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY..💜

Such a cute heartwarming romcom
This show took me a few episodes to really get into, first and second halves have drastically different vibes but I thought the script is original, fun and engaging throughout. I couldn't wait to watch the next episode.I'm not the biggest fan of the casting for Ghost, and FL is playing this hard to watch weak character that makes it so hard to like her. But that's the point.
But I loved it, I think it's my favourite romcom so far.
I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a fun, emotional, engaging romantic drama to watch.

11/10 - A MUST WATCH!
If you are unsure whether or not to watch this drama, I highly recommend it. Not going to lie, full disclosure: I biasedly went into this drama because of my LOVE for Jo Jung-suk and I was not disappointed at all. Not even for one minute.The storyline is will make you laugh and cry. It's funny and romantic and sweet. The love story between the leads is just perfection. Their chemistry, their banter...unmatched! And of course my favourite part is how Sun-woo "tries" to fight off Bong-sun's flirty advances but you can clearly see that he still totally loves the attention (the little smirk/smiles he makes whenever she is throwing herself at him or wrapping herself around him)
Whenever Bong-sun was possessed by Soon-Ae I was in stitches from laughing so much. It honestly made me love Park Bo-young because her acting ability is just phenomenal (just look at the difference in Bong-sun's personality and mannerisms whenever she is possessed by Soon-Ae and when she is not)
The show had everything: comedy, romance, family bonding, heartbreak, life lessons and a satisfying ending.
If you loved Hi Bye Mama, Mystic Pop-Up Bar, The Uncanny Counter and Hotel De Luna, you will love this show. It is one of my favourite comfort dramas and I will never get tired of rewatching it. 11/10 - A MUST WATCH!

'Oh My Ghostess' - a 2015 South Korean TV series of 16 episodes and 1,000 heart melts.
You know how there are some dramas where you don't expect it to be irresistible because the lead actor is not your typical almond-eyed, big hands, tall and hunky dude? Hence, you don't think that you'll be tempted to finish the drama at all. That was what I expected out of this paranormal dramedy. However, second episode onwards (we all know the first episode of most k-dramas are a drag), I was pleasantly surprised when the credits rolled and I was still staring at my screen with a slight smile, waiting for the countdown to end and the next episode to start playing on Netflix.*Disclaimer: Spoilers ahead*
The lead actress (Na Bong-Sun played by Park Bo-Young) is positively adorable! I had already watched her in Strong Girl Bong-Soon before so I was familiar with her "tiny bean" self but I am not exaggerating when I say, her character is much more likeable in this show. She plays a timid and unconfident assistant cook in the restaurant of a head chef, who she has always been secretly interested in. A virgin ghost possesses her body, who has a completely contrasting character to Na Bong-Sun, and manages to gain the chef's attention gradually - although, it is debatable which version of Na Bong-Sun finally wins his heart. This show encompasses a major character development for her that feels very heartwarming to experience as a viewer.
The male lead Kang Sun-Woo is played by Jo Jung-Suk, who I had earlier seen as a special appearance role in Legend of the Blue Sea as the main female character's fake mermaid boyfriend. Here, he portrays a narcissistic chef and restaurant owner that turns out to be the perfect ratio of jealous:concerned boyfriend.
Personal Experience: I started the first episode at 9:00 PM on Friday night and watched 10 episodes non-stop, with only water and toilet breaks, till 7:30 AM on Saturday morning. Repeated the same the next night and completed all 16 episodes by 3:45 AM on Sunday. I may have overdone it, but do not underestimate the number of butterflies you will experience in your stomach when you watch it.
Goes without saying, that while the love story is blooming, there is an evil ghost spirit murder mystery scenario developing parallelly, which was actually not as interesting as I'd like it to be. But, no pain; no gain I guess.
Special mention to Jun (A.K.A Cordon) in the show who acts like Na Bong-Sun's understated best friend that is always looking out for her. It helps that he is quite an eye-candy too.
Recommended to:
-Strong Girl Bong-Soon/Legend of The Blue Sea lovers
-Beginner K-drama watchers
-People that are prepared to Youtube search "Oh My Ghostess best scenes", "Oh My Ghostess bts" and "Oh my Ghostess interviews eng sub" to help you get through the post-show blues
Fun Fact: Park Bo-Young had her first onscreen kiss on this show, but you'll probably find this out (and more!) when you're urged to begin your research upon finishing the show.
Closing comments: Watch this if you are missing your boyfriend and definitely if you do not have a boyfriend. Watch this if you're in a k-drama slump and need a pick-me-up. Watch it if you're easily amused by hyperactive but cute flirting and possessive boys that act like guardian angels.
Just watch it, and thank me later.

One of 2015`s best drama.
One of my all time favorite drama. It`s that good. Incorporating food and fiction, just the right amount of drama, comedy, thriller and romance. It`s a lot but perfectly well balanced. Jung-seok is already one my favorite male korean actors, this drama also made me a fan of Bo-Young. Her character in here is really well made and she gave justice to it being given different personality. She`s so cute I adore her. She and Jung-seok have chemistry together despite how their characters were made. Not to mention, Seulgi also did a good job for her character. I just remember watching this drama thinking I would watch it 4 episode a day and ended up watching it in one sitting. lmao.Was this review helpful to you?
Park Bo Young is so cute in this, her acting from cute tomboy to introverted shy girl, she is excelled in all.
Jung suk is cool as always. Kang ki young is funny as always. Everyone performaned well.
Bo young and Eui Shik lived in the role. Eui shik character is unpredictable and he played it in a ease.
Bo young's role is extremely difficult to pull. She has to switch between personalities which should be believable. She pulled it off with an ease.
Overall, this is one of the Dramas which I would watch again again.

Super fun Drama
This was a great romantic drama with a horror and crime element and I loved it for that. The leading lady presented herself well and the ghost was super funny and heartbreaking. The villian was wonderfully acted. The leading man while not my favorite type was very well acted. The SFX were really nice for when this was made and the music was fitting if not spiecal. Honestly I liked the crime plot better then the romance plot in this one but it was still sweet. A really fun drama I would and have recomended to others.Was this review helpful to you?
