At first I thought that Hwang Jung Eum and Choi Won Young were an unlikely pair. The last time I saw them together was for the drama "Kill Me, Heal Me" I didn't think too much that they would have the chemistry I expected in the drama but boy, I was wrong. I didn't get the heart fluttering chemistry most leads would have to let the drama stay afloat. Their chemistry was more mature and calm. Their chemistry was like the relationship between an old married couple.

I loved the fact that this drama seemed like an anthology of sorts while keeping the original plot. Wol Joo is someone in limbo, not alive yet not entirely dead. She has to fulfill her goal in order to pass on peacefully. Chef Gwi is a former chief from the afterlife who now accompanies Wol Joo in her adventures. Add Kang Bae to the mix and we have one of the perfect KDrama trios. I really enjoyed the chemistry between the three and although I already had an inkling with regards to who they really were, the story was weaved beautifully. 12 episodes seemed not enough and perfect at the same time.
