This drama had all the qualities that makes a drama perfect. It was meaningful, intense, realistic, comic relief and exceptional actors. I never saw a story that was told like this and I congratulate them for having the best scenario of 2014. Alll the cast members, directors, actors and writers did an amazing job in pulling off such an amazing drama.Plot- Yes, political corruption and school corruption are not unommon themes for k-dramas, but using the perspective of a parent who took matters into her own hands was definitely new. I applaud Kim Hee Sun for her splendid execution of her role as the mother. This drama defined the role of a true educator, a parent love for her child and the meaning of true courage. The best thing about this drama, although it showed the atrocities that most people usually turn a blind eye to, it was not a freaking sob story because it showed that people did not live their life to be pitied. They all just wanted to be heard!
Cast: I saw a lot of actors that I was not familiar with, but it did not stop me from watching it because each actor/actresses seriously displayed their acting abilities. Lastly, it was fun to see a cast where everyone complimented each others abilty.
Romance- If you are looking for a simple basic romcom, please don't watch this drama because it sheds the truth that their is nothing romantic about life. Yes, the drama is intense and don't get me wrong there is a cute snip of romance in it because in life everyone needs to be loved. Any love that formed was engaging to watch because it just happened naturally and I won't give any hints because then that would be a spoiler. Lastly, remember that romance does not play a major role in it because with or without it the drama is still exceptional!
The best thing about Angry Mom was its fast-paced speed, no loop holes and a nice flow. Worst thing was that I watched it while it was airing, so it was painful waiting for the next episode. I loved it and I definitely recommend it for others to watch:)

In addition, this drama was hilarious and the romance was on point, but don't come into this drama thinking both the ghost and the girl is the main character, it's only the ghost hence the title which was my mistake. Also sometimes the drama was just jumping for one genre to the next because it would be mystery one minute and then thriller and then back to romcom. The inconsistency annoyed me, and I could not really come to like the main girl (ghost) because of her lies and her greed. The host was just too depressing and lacked any love for herself for me too like her.
However, I do compliment the romance, the comedy and the acting. But this drama was not for me, so I dropped it. When sometime has passed I might pick it up again. My only advice is don't think about this drama in a literal sense and you might just enjoy it.

I loved it, so I gave it a 8 because the ending gave me a warm feeling even though I might never watch it again until I forget everything about it. It's not that it was perfect that I will remember it, but because there was some parts that was way too annoying and freaking dramatic. But still I liked it because for goodness sake it's a cute drama. Drama! It's not real! Alot of people caught feelings for this drama and wanted to tarnish it. This drama made me laugh a lot, feel a little sad, annoyed, but then happy again. It was really cute and I liked that I watched it for myself.

The cast was splendid and the music touched my soul. I can't believe how gorgeous the main characters were. My favorite character was Yin Xia Mo played by Hus Barbie. She was so strong, blunt, (something you don't see in most female leads in T- dramas) amazingly talented and she looks like a life size doll. She's so cute. I loved the two main guys and their awesome (Looks), charisma even though they had some serious insecurity issues, but who can blame them they both had a lonely and loveless life.
While, watching this drama I felt like I was thrown into this fantasy realm of love and true desirement. It is a love story, but not your average one. You experience the best of both world by seeing how this love theory is played out through various emotions and events. It's a must watch!

I just finished watching this drama and I was like wow! Let me give you a brief summary. From ep 1 you already knew this drama was going to be a rollercoaster ride. It was crazy to cute and funny and to wtf and to like damn this drama is beautiful. My wtf moment was between ep 10 to 15. It wasn't because the drama was going bad it was because it was becoming unpredictable. I didn't give up because i had to know how this drama was going to end and I didn't want to skip any part of it. This show took a lot of twist and turns, so it wasn't like a regular romcom because I was on a cursing rampage for like 3-5 episodes. However it was necessary because that's what kept me interested. The characters of this drama were complex, but they played their parts so well, that I give the whole cast an applaud. I am really happy that I finally watched this drama because it was on my plan to watch list for a long time since I was scared to watch it because of some negative comments from the drama. It is your choice to watch it or not, but i still recommend it.

One thing about watching old dramas is that it renews your love for watching dramas all over again. This drama was not the best drama, but it was not entirely bad. The story was interesting because you see the female lead playing the role that is usually given to the male lead. It was like a reverse-cinderella story even though it's not a rags-riches story.
It is about a star (A-list actress) and a regular guy (lecturer/writer) falling in love. I thought it was interesting how their lives intertwined. It started out so good, dragged through the middle 12-17 (so much annoying things happened that I was wondering if they were simply giving love too much value) but the drama begs the question: Is love worth its value? It was addicting and fun to watch.
You have a female lead that wants to be loved and a male lead that does not know how to love. It wowed me how such different characters could fall in love with each other. Their CHEMISTRY was always on point. The ex-girlfriend was so pathetic that it made no sense for her to continue to be in a situation that was hurting her own happiness, but did she care, NOPE! So many obstacles tried to disrupt the main couple relationship especially the overly obsessed manager.
Description of lead characters: The female lead character annoyed me through the drama, the only thing I liked about her was that she was a caring and honest-hearted individual. But she was also a selfish, immature, self centered, irresponsible, whiny person. She was used to getting what she wanted, so I can see why she was so spoiled, but I could never offer her my sympathy because she simply always behaved without considering the consequences.
Male lead- Smart, cold hearted, responsible. He was the rational one out of the two but sometimes I felt like he was too self-righteous.
The cast did an awesome job overall. But I did not have a preference towards any character.
Overall the plot was interesting, but the conflict was too redundant at times. I thought it could have been shorter. I tolerated and completed it because I wanted to know how the main leads life was going to play out. I recommend this drama if you want to hop on a dramatic rollercoaster with some talented, handsome and beautiful cast members.
I realized there was so many guest roles in this drama. Ji Jin hee was my favorite:)
