I got Bored. Little chemistry and a slow moving story.
6/10 is my rating. This is a 2023 South Korean supernatural mystery romance with 12, 60 minute episodes.
First I provide a Unique Synopsis then Review.
Synopsis
Taxi driver Seon Young min (Yoon Chan young) just wants to make a good living driving the taxi his mother bequeathed him. Last thing he wanted or needed was a ghost, Kang Ji hyun (Bang Min ah) attached to his taxi. Especially a ghost that drives off his paying customers. When he discovers a way the ghosts can be paying customers and he can grant thenpm some final wishes, a new business concept us born and who better to help him in his endeavors than the ghost who is attached to his taxi. Having lost her memory, Ji hyun cannot tell Young min how she came to have his deceased mother’s bracelet or why their are pictures of her on his mother’s phone. So they have mysteries to solve around Young min’s mother and Ji hyun’s deaths as well as mysteries around the last moments for their clients.
Review
I very rarely quit watching a series. I made it through episode 5 on this and just could not watch it any more. I was bored. I like the premise. But the focus was not as heavily in doing cool things for ghosts as it was on their mystery and their relationship. I did not puck up on much chemistry between the keads so I was not super interested in their interactions. I would not watch it again nor recommend it.
Spoilers
Ji hyun is way dressed down, possibly to give a more ghostly appearance, but it makes handsome Young min’s almost immediate attraction for her less believable. She is also a bit annoying and has no empathy for Young min’s plight and need to earn money to provide for himself and his grandmother. So with her being slightly annoying, devoid of understanding, and not very attractive, it is hard to understand what he would see in her from a romantic perspective. She also is mean to hm by not understanding him needing to make money and guilting him into helping herself and other ghosts instead. She also makes fun of him for never having dated, and ridicules his desire to hang a lock on the fence.
I found the case where the con artist was trying to scam the young widow out of a settlement interesting. But those interesting cases were too few to hold my interest.
