Watch "The Guest" instead of this!
Strong first episode then goes down in a speedy downward spiral after that. This is nothing like The Guest! The Guest was superior in every possible way. How to fix? Remove the thriller, romance and drama and make it pure horror series.There was an attempt to do a supernatural/medical/police mix but none of which worked. There was 3 separate scenes wasted on 1 advertisement, talking about buying a phone, go shopping for that said phone, play with the phone with your friend. OCN needed that Samsung cash I guess lol.
The twist at the end of episode 12 ruined the entire drama, everything they went through became meaningless. Unsalvageable!
At the end, they thrown the amnesia element again to FORCEFULLY retain the priesthood imagery. What a load of horse shit!

A must watch for those who love Suspense-Romance!
First and foremost, the setting was settled for sure. Church and Hospital are deeply connected if you look at it closely. As said in the drama, both Priests and Doctors also serve the ill, whether it is illness or demon. This drama was not totally horror but had a bit of everything, romance, comedy, action, melodrama. I had my doubts that I'd dream about ghosts, but this drama gave me a bigger thing to worry about than the ghosts. I can't believe the ending. I was so happy and set to have #EunMin to have a happy ending, but everything turned out to be a subconscious dream. I was so sad, utterly. But what could've been done, it was the Screenwriter's plan all along. I desperately wanted a happy ending for them and all the couples mentioned in this drama. This would've been elite then. And I still couldn't figure out the spirit, Samael's motive. Why did he do that? What was the story behind him becoming evil? Why was he in hospital clothes and what the hell happened to his face? Those questions were left unanswered, unfortunately. Rest, the drama was killer.Still, I was hoping for Ham Eun Ho and Oh Soo Min to end up together. They did end up together though, even if it was not in the way I wanted. It was better than dying, though.

Rating 10/10.Wow. What a terrific drama.
Basically it's the story of two priests, a cop, and a lady who seems to be pretty rich who make up an exorcism team.
A young female doctor is also a pivotal character in the series.
The acting is good. The special effects get better as the series progresses.
The series isn't embarrassed in any way in the notion of faith, belief in god.
It is very detailed in what is said during exorcisms. But I have no idea how truthful it is.
The series has one big twist, which for some viewers could be seen as a fault.
Before this twist happened, i was praising the series for doing the opposite 0f what Korean dramas normally do in similar situations.
But the twist negated my praise on that. But the twist is valid and not out of -place.
I would say the twist was pretty audicous.
It is a series drama for the most part, but there are moments of humour.
It has been remade (according to an imdb reviewer as the american series Evil.
This was "created by Michelle King and Robert King, the combined force behind the juggernaut that was “The Good Wife" according to the review at

Although there is no mention of it being a remake of a korean drama.

The main leads are idiotic.
The story is going well, but the main leads are idiotic which lead to unnecessary death. Most of the series that I watched were with good reasoning, logic and thinking. The Mains leads were cautious but in this series the main leads are clumsy and idiotic, so I'm unable to continue this series but if you are ok with clumsy characters you can give it a try.Was this review helpful to you?

Decepcionante
Estoy confudida, hasta el capitulo 8 fue una buena serie, no era nada del otro mundo pero era entretenido pero despues... Siento que los escritores realmente quisieron hacer un nuevo duo con la monja y el padre Oh, pero fue tan malo que volvieron atras y fue horrible, decae terribelmente toda la serie. No venia por una historia de amor solo por los exorcismos y dejaron de importar como toda la trama, ademas tampoco se explica porque el demonio queria tanto a la doctora.Was this review helpful to you?
