Last ep was too dragged with too much going onI didn’t like the inconsistent ep themes, 2s then 1 then 2.5
I liked the team and their dynamic but no one reached their full potential and they felt a bit flat
I felt the hyung felt a bit ghostly, and till him going home we thought for one second he died that day then when he went home I was like ah he’s already dead
But mom was like when he thought the building fell and he called out for his hyung, it must’ve meant the bro died that night
there are other dramas like awl and doctor detective that addressed the labor laws and tragedies, and those two were more impactful, even devilish judge had better punishments
this lacked in comedy and in deepness, the actors were great and it was wasted potential

Could have been a pefect show
The themes in this show were really touching, the lead was impecable as well as the second male lead, but the show really dropped the ball with the wife. Like what was that?! Such a self-absorbed, arrogant and selfish woman yet the show was trying so hard to shove down our throaths that she’s the prize. Added zero to the actual story. Absolutley detestable when show gets hijacked for somebody’s delusional agenda without putting in the work. Clowns. Her sister was bearable in the beginning but then they started with the whole fighter crap without any justification and she turned into annoying little brat as well. Either cast a better actress or put more effort into the writing. Otherwise you just get annoying one dimensional bratz. The last victims were also quite annoying during the case. Shame. Could have been a perfect show!Was this review helpful to you?
The Unexpected Good One
i wasnt expecting anything from this series but turned out it was a good one. i initially planned on just making this just as a white noise during work or doing something else, but this series ended up getting my attention!! it was funny and consistent with its story line. the twist at the end was good! i cant help but cry in the end. it was a good cry! the actors/actresses are great as well. story plot was unpredictable which is my cup of tea. there are romantic moments but not as cringy as other dramas which is good!Was this review helpful to you?

Absurd whilst emotional.
The contrast of the deeply emotional story and the ridiculous character makes it a very ennoble watch for me. No Mu-Jin feels like someone I would know it real life. His motivations for doing the things he does make sense, as well as his reactions to the paranormal situations.I like the chemistry between the actors, they're perfectly cast, though sometimes I'm frustrated with Gyeon-U not standing up for himself.
Overall, I like the sorry and characters, but the pacing was a bit rushed.

It's very, very hard to see the injustice suffered by some of the characters. Even if the aim of the series is to show situations of harassment and abuse in the workplace and then seek redress, it's still hard to watch (although the solidarity between the workers in the warehouse was great to see, despite the grim fate that awaited them). To say that it's a comedy series... I'm having my emotions played with here. The humour helps to get the message across, of course. A series that's both useful and entertaining.The three of them are great. And the lawyer is flawed, a bit lost, but he's also gifted with a relentless and unconditional empathy that's all Christian. And when we learn more about his life, it's hard not to shed a tear...
It's high time we abolished work, comrades. And it looks like Buddha is on our side. Long live the strike and down with the cops and the bosses!
(We're hoping for a season 2)

Good Enough
Korean Drama 'Oh My Ghost Clients' is a comical fantasy with many emotional stories.The drama delves into many themes and matters and has many cases to drive the point home. Though the start was rocky, with the fantasy element being presented poorly, the emotional impact of the ghost cases made up for it. Also, the drama was suspenseful till the very final episode.
However, the drama never goes too deep into the main characters' lives and personalities, which was a letdown.
Still, the performances were all great by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, eight out of ten.

Oh my ghost clients
A bit of a denunciation of the conditions of certain workers: impossible shifts, lack of safety, workplace hazing, etc.This lawyer is "enlisted" to help ghosts settle their debts.
He will defend the rights of the deceased even after their deaths so that their colleagues also benefit and receive justice.
Some comical situations, sometimes a little too "imaginative."

Entertaining and heartwarming drama
This is unexpectedly good. Even if the drama portrayed the story in a fantasy, unrealistic manner, the principle of finding purpose in life boils down to helping those in need. It depicts the reality that if you choose to pursue that purpose, no matter what comes your way, there is always a way to overcome challenges and difficulties.The acting is superb, with each performer bringing depth and authenticity to their roles. The chemistry between the trio is remarkable; their interactions feel natural and engaging, making the storyline even more compelling. Each character's journey unfolds with a unique perspective, and their development throughout the series is both heartwarming and thought-provoking.
One of the standout aspects of this drama is its emphasis on listening and understanding others. Each story teaches us valuable lessons about empathy and the human experience. The characters portray real emotions and struggles, reminding us to connect with one another on a deeper level. Ultimately, this drama serves as a beautiful reminder of what it means to be human, encouraging viewers to look beyond their own experiences and consider the lives of those around them.

impressive
i didn't think I'd actually enjoy this drama so much. it made me shed some tears from the ghosts. but i will say hee ju's sister is a straight A**HOLE. i did not like her character at all. like, what even was he problem exactly? hee ju is a better sibling. gyeon woo is such a cutie pie. a bit obsessed with hee ju but whatever. the actor who plays bo-sal irritates me in almost every drama he's in. but he's so cute 😩 anyway, if hee ju's sister wasn't in this drama, it would have been better. that's just my opinion.Was this review helpful to you?

Funny, yet often heartbreaking
I love Jung Hyung Ho as an actor, and that's what brought me here. There seem to be so many "ghost" shows these days, and I was getting tired of them.Jung Hyung Ho as Mu Jin was excellent. I hated his character for the first couple of episodes. His life was such a mess. But he really matured through all the experiences he went through and became so much less egocentric. He has wonderful comedic timing, but he's also able to wring other emotions out of you. I cried more than once during this show.
Loved:
- the stories, especially the young man that actually wanted to die
- the three main characters (Cha Hak Yeon reminds me so much of Seo In Guk, I had a hard time getting past that)
- the pacing was pretty good
Things that didn't hit the mark for me:
-Mu Jin and Hui Ju - haircuts. Were they trying for a mullet look or what?
-Hui Ju and her "boyfriend" - they were more like brother and sister.
-The thing that bothered me the most was Mu Jin's "marriage". There was no point to that at all, and them getting back together at the end was a waste.
