NOT RECOMMENDED
This casting had so much potential. The writing was very much complicated and messy. I wanted to see more focus on the main couple, but their love story was forced and dry (it lacked chemistry). Loved 2 of the couples (doori+shiyeol & soongoo+samsoon). They deserved more screen time than the main couple. Still their stories were left undeveloped. Not even going to talk about the age difference between Hana & Crown Prince. I don’t care if it’s a period drama, this shouldn’t have been portrayed as well as normalized. Hana was a 24 year old adult marrying a 14 year old crown prince. Their marriage was literally supported by everyone and no one thought it was weird. Can’t imagine how awkward it must have been for actors. Their age gap irl was even bigger. Unfortunately I do not recommend watching this show. The ending was one of the most disappointing endings in kdrama history.Was this review helpful to you?

waste of my time
This drama started off real good, with a solid plot of the main leads helping ghosts to leave for the afterlife. I was really enjoying seeing backstories of ghosts until they ruined it with unnecessary romance. First of all, there was no chemistry between the main leads and their romance was so visibly forced. I wouldn’t say the acting was great either. It was my first time watching Joo Won star in a drama but his acting wasn’t realistic at all. The scenes of him being happy,sad,frustrated- he had the same expression in each of them. He looked confused. Wouldn’t say it was one of Kwon Na-ra’s best works either. Anyways, I watched the whole drama just for Yoo In Soo. I liked his romance with the female lead’s best friend but their ending was open. Like he was a ghost and the other was a person. I’m giving it 3.5 for the sake of Yoo In Soo and few ghost stories that were interesting. I would NEVER REWATCH THIS!!!!Was this review helpful to you?

worth watching
Loved the plot and acting!! The characthers’ backstories were really well written in a way you can justify their actions. First episodes were really funny but I lost interest as it went on. However, I wouldn’t rewatch it as the ending sucked… felt like I wasted my time. They all deserved a better ending , especially the father who waited 100+ years for her chicken nugget daughter?it was really weird to kill him off the last minute. And if you hate time loop endings or open endings then THIS SHOW IS DEF NOT RECOMMENDED!!Was this review helpful to you?

a must watch!!
Although I started this show for Kwak Dong Yeon, the plot is what kept me watching until the end. I was pretty surprised to see senior actors getting a lot of screen time. Its a rare sight since most dramas are focused on young characters/couples. But I enjoyed it!! Also loved the fact that there were multiple couple representations - (rich fl & struggling ml, best friends to lovers, and many others).This show was chaotic and full of drama. The characters kept experiencing misfortunes to the point that it got funny for me. There were also 2 failed attempts of $uicide. So if you are sensitive to this topic, I would recommend skipping some scenes.
Overall, I liked the main couple but preferred eunji & poonggi couple more. You should watch this drama if you are into found family and mystery trope. Definitely recommended!!

cliche
I could already name 5 turkish dramas with the exact plot after only watching 2 episodes. Roh Jeung Eui's acting abilities were nonexistent, despite doing well in 18 again. There was no chemistry between the main leads and they were all dull. The only thing I liked about this drama was the fact that Ji Hye Won was casted for the role of He-Ra. Although she is a rookie actress, her acting and visuals are superior. Hoping to see more of her projects in the future. Also, I don't know who was singing the OST, but I loved their voice.Was this review helpful to you?
