I loved the chemistry between Sohn Ye-jin og Lee min ki, they were so cute! Moreover, the ghost in this movie was a bit scary, but the comedy! Omg!! -the comedy in this movie was good. I didn't think I would laugh, but most of time I spent pausing the movie because I was constantly laughing hard. Even in the serious scene there were some comedy and that worked just fine.
You won't waste a second, this movie is awesome!

Story: It's not an original story, even the synopsis tells it so, but it was very enjoyable.
Acting/ Casting: Lee Minki, who I have recently seen in his cameo on the drama "Shut Up: Flower Boy Band", has captured my heart with his acting once again. He is truly a magnificent actor who just gives to his characters a life of their own. I have to mention that both characters he played have a very distinctive feel to them and I just want to see him in more and more things.
I had only seen Son Ye Jin in "Personal Taste", and although I did like the drama, I wasn't that impressed with her in that particular role. But she was just perfect as Yeo Ri. Both of them made the characters likable and believable and that just made me sympathize with them and the things which were happening to, and around, them.
They have really good chemistry together.
I also liked the supporting actors. The movie had a great cast all around.
Music: It felt like it belonged at all times and complemented the scenes nicely.
Rewatch: I will definitely re-watch this movie more than a few times.
Overall: The movie is almost two hours long, but it felt less than that because I was totally immersed in the movie (I did stop it once just to post on the discussion thread. But that had nothing to do with the movie and all with the subs I found). I think this a very well done movie.

Usually when a movie includes extremely pale children and tall women in desperate need of a haircut, it's the type of movie that will leave you hiding behind your pillow, but not this one! Or well, not this one for about 90% of the time. That 90% delivers your favorite K-drama theme; not so socially acceptable woman meets incredibly handsome man, and soon comedy and cute scenes are to follow.
The comedy relief is, well, an actual relief. Lee Min Ki and Son Ye-jin did an amazing job on portraying the main characters and some of the scenes were very funny. This is a movie for everyone, even for those who aren't quite found of scary movies (but do cover your eyes when there is obvious creepy music or dark scenes around the corner! You have been warned.)
I can't pinpoint what it is, but I feel as if something was missing in the storyline. But as a Lee Min Ki fan, I'm overall satisfied with this movie!

It really is both romance and horror! I got chills down my spine with the ghost scenes and your are drawn to feel the pain and loneliness of the female main character.
The comic scenes are... how can i say this... the chery on top of the cake! It's brilliante, hilarius, sweet, spooky, dramatic and at the same time... addictive.
Great soundtrack, great choice of actors, outstanding preformances, the supporting cast is amazing... TOTALLY want to watch it again (with proper subs, when i find them! XD)

Anyway, I was attracted to this film due to its storyline and the great actors who knew how to deliver emotions.
The story have more romance than horror that's for sure; it was kind of unique so I had so much fun watching it and going through its details as the film went by.
If you don't get scared that easy and love the sweet type of romance then you definitely should check this out.
If you're a person that get frightened quickly and hate horror films then you may have to Keep Out!

The story reminded me a lot of The Master's Sun although this came out first and was probably the inspiration for the latter. I loved The Master's Sun and I loved this as well. It's not your typical romantic comedy as some horror elements and melodrama were thrown here and there. The mixture of the genres was definitely something new for me but it still had that typical "parting and reuniting" that most romantic Korean movies are known for which is just fine.
Acting/Cast: 9
Going into this movie I did not know who the male lead was but I completely adore Son Ye Jin in The Classic which was the main reason why I picked this up. Son Ye Jin is fantastic as usual and the male lead is definitely someone I'll look into in the future. He has a lot of titles under his belt so that's great. Their chemistry was not the best of the best, but it was there. It was subtle and not forced.
Music: 7
There were no catchy or memorable soundtracks I heard. Mostly, I would hear something and look it up on YouTube and discover another Korean singer but this was not the case. Still giving it a 7 for it's great horror sound effects.
Rewatch Value: 9
Definitely has rewatch value! I know a lot of people can relate to the female lead's dilemma (although not necessarily including the "seeing ghosts" part), but most of us has had times where we were all alone. This movie definitely made me feel better with the thought that someday someone will come into our lives and be there for us. I know I've experienced that scene where she ate half the cake in one sitting. LOL!
Overall: 9
A solid 9 for me. Watch it now!

I found this story to be uniquely original and took a Rom/Com to a whole new place and added in a good dose of humor into the mix as well. Lee Min Ki's performance is excellent as always showcasing both physical humor as well as touching emotional scenes he is the best character actor. I would call this a unique romance. I was prepared not to like this and found it a very touching story with both chills and thrills.

When I knew from the reviews that Kang Yeo Ri, saw ghosts and was actually haunted by a ghost, I was curious how Ma Jo Goo will adapt to that hard situation. This story wasn't only about facing our fears, but also about accepting them. You'll understand when you watch the movie.
The acting of both leads was really skillful and the chemistry was there. There was evolution in feelings. What I mean that, the male lead didn't suddenly fall in love with the girl, but slowly realizing he had feelings for her. The script was wittingly written and reinforced the roles of the actors, which made the movie really amusingly horrific.
The music was hauntingly beautiful. That is all I can say
Overall, the movie was really comic and horror in the same time. I assure that the comic scenes are not silly, but really hilarious and so are the horror scenes are really scary… So if you were a scary cat (just like me), I would recommend skipping the horror scenes, couse the movie is worth watching :)

It had a bit of everything, one minute I was laughing then the next I was hiding under my blanket. I thought the story was great and the acting was so good that, even though the story is supernatural, its still believable. Some parts of the film were predicable but thats to be expected in any film.
The acting was just amazing, I can't fault it at all. They pulled off the comedic scenes perfectly and had me laughing till my belly hurt. I had never seen the leads in anything else before, but they was so good I'm going to watch more of there work. Lee Min Ki facial expressions were a highlight for me!
This is a film I will be watching over and over again.

The romance was cute. And the chemistry was to die for. I really love how Son Ye Jin’s able to match up with her co-stars who are younger than her that I barely notice the age differences.
With a crazy set-up accompanied by compelling and quirky leads, this movie was able to tug my heart with just enough dosage of sweetness and pure wackiness at its best.
