{Beware}Contains some soft spoilers of ending
So I ended up searching k-dramas on Netflix and ended up picking Oh My Ghostess when I saw that Park Bo Young was the staring actress (also there wasn't there much option).
Before starting to watch it I read the plot and liked the plot and was super excited to give it a shot.
*STORY
Overall the initial plot fascinated me and since I was an avid anime fan I had a idea of the ghost, Soon Ae being in a coma since she lacked of her memories, makes sense right? But I guess the need for tragedy was superior to a good comumn sense.
Another thing that lowed my score is pretty much what most people miss and irritates me profoundly!
The "romance" between Sun Woo and "Bong Sun" is meaningless... Why? Because non possessed Bong Sun irritated Sun Woo. Now when possessed he fell in love with Soon ae and her energy so I don't get why the non possessed Bong Sun and Sun Woo ended up together. It's ridiculous!
*Acting/Cast
The best part and what made me start watching this show is Boo Young. The rest of the cast is also amazing and I feel eager to know more about the other two main casts. They are very well portraited, dressed and styled and boy, were the kiss scenes cute.
*Music
I rarely vote non music shows that high and I can only evaluate the in show sounds and I think they were ok... Also, I'm a bit disappointed with the opening but it doesn't affect the score anyway.
*Rewatch Value
NOPE, NEVER, I even skipped some episodes.

Everyone has done justice to their roles. But specially Park Bo young, she is amazing & So cute... The way she acts...impressive!!???? Lead couple looked cute together.
This drama not only entertains you but also gives you life lessons, life is so uncertain so we should try to live our best...and live diligently. It has mystery, comedy, romance and a few scary moments.
The background score is good.
Perfect and cute romcom drama.????????
Worth Watching!!????

I'll begin with the cast because they have so much to do with this drama's success. Park Bo Young clearly does a hell of a job in this one. Not only does she portray one character so well, but two. The way she switches between characters is exceptional. She easily made it onto my favorite actors list. I love the energy that she played Soon Ae with and she's so cute that even when her character was being super over the top she was super lovable. Yet, she could become the painfully shy Bong Sun the very next moment and just make you wanna shake life into her. Kim Seul Gi I had seen in Flower Boy Next Door before this but she had such a small role in that I really had no idea what she was capable of but man she's impressive. Her character Shin Soon Ae, had me crying on so many occasions and her character's bubbly persona, even when she was being mischievous, was fun and eye catching. I felt for her character so deeply and a large part of that is because of her powerful acting. Now to Jo Jung Suk. Okay, well I'm a huge fan of his so of course I love him, but I'm a fan because he's an amazing actor. His character, Kang Sun Woo, is insecure while also being full of himself but also has a lot of integrity and passion. Jo Jung Suk portrays his boyishly immature and admirable charismatic character perfectly and even when other cute distractions arise aka Cordon ;), he still shines and I always looked forward to his presence. But that's the great thing about this drama, I couldn't wait to see all the characters. The kitchen crew omg don't even get me started. So funny. And funny in a natural way. I didn't feel like they were trying to make me to laugh, but rather that they were just being goofs all on their own and I just happened to witness it. Min Soo (Sous Chef) was an amazing supporting character and Kang Ki Young played him masterfully. Cordon, played by Kwak Si Yang, is another character that really intrigued me. I liked that he never actually became a "second male lead" but that he was just an extra sweetie and solid voice of reason and stability when other characters got too crazy. XD Instead of taking away from the funniness and antics of some of the other supporting characters, he just added to their funniness by being so level headed and darn sexy. Im Joo Won also did his character Seung Jae justice and he had me legitimately scared sometimes. All the cast was amazing but I won't mention them all as that would take all day.
The story: I loved the story. The characters are developed very well. Even if you don't like some of the characters at the beginning, the writers do a wonderful job of not suddenly, but consistently integrating the backstories and character growth in a timely fashion in where you don't feel overwhelmed. The writing and directing are well done. The pacing throughout the whole drama is kept very well and everything is presented at the perfect time. Therefore, you don't get too confused with too much information and you don't get bored from a lack of information. There's always something going on and any side stories and backstories are snuck in so naturally that I wasn't ever like, oh great, or, here we go again. I enjoyed every scene while watching it and even if I always looked forward to the main characters scenes, I never wished for other scenes to be cut short. What I think is done exceptionally well is the combination of genres. The romance and comedy go great together but even when this drama goes down very dark roads, it fits so well. Most importantly though, this drama never got boring and never dragged. I was also thoroughly invested in this drama until the last moment in which I cried cause it was so beautiful. Also, the supernatural spin in this was the perfect twist. I like when dramas have that one little twist that makes them unique and the ghost possession creates much excitement and intriguing conflict. If you're scared away because for some reason you didn't like other dramas with the supernatural tag or with ghosts, then don't be. This drama is unique in it's take. This show also makes cooking seem like a lot of fun and I've never even liked cooking cause I'm lazy as heck.
Music: I always find orchestrated music very emotion evoking and the instrumentals in this drama are so lovely and intense. The music is what really pulled the emotions out of me alongside the impeccable acting etc. I still listen to the music tracks in this drama and I've watched it three times. Oh and Jo Jung Suk's song in this is ahhhhh! <3
To me, the very few amount of flaws this drama has aren't worth mentioning and even at my most objective I don't think I would give it lower than a 9. A good drama is a good drama and that's just what this is.
Overall, you should watch this! This drama impacted me on an emotional level in many areas (laughter, crying, fear, excitement) and if you like romance and comedy, regardless of ghosts and the supernatural, you'll probably love this. At least I did.

Confused
I wanted so much from this drama but it did not turn out as I wanted it to bewhole plot was based on a ghost possessing the body of the female lead to quench her sexual desire because she died virgin
But anyhow the love story is supposed to be in between the male lead and the female lead but it was as not as such
the plot or the story line revolving around the death of the ghost was just perfect
I loved it everything was very beautiful and emotional but the romance didn't click because as I said before the romance has had to be in between female lead and male lead
but whatever the best moment this series had best kisses this series had all the best romantic moments were shared by the male lead and the ghost in the female leads body!!!
so which basically means the male lead actually loved the ghost
How are we supposed to accept the fact that the female lead continued to be his girlfriend we do not have any particular reason to accept the fact that they were in relationship
the ghost comforted him made him happy made him fall in love with her there was no role of female lead in this
In the series itself the male lead accepts that he fell for the ghost but still they continue the relationship because obviously she is the female lead and that is how the story has to end
but that did not make any sense
there were in total four kisses in this drama out of which three kisses where with ghost in female leads body
the bestest of moments, beautiful bonding and the deep conversation that happened in this series happened between the ghost and the male lead
no connection between the male lead
the female lead just happened without reason
she just happened to be there and she is meant to be the female lead that's why she ended up with him
the Male lead accepts the fact that he was worried about the female lead from the very start which we could also see but worrying about someone and loving someone both are completely different
she was working him with him since so long but he worried about her, never loved her but as soon as she was possessed by the ghost he fell in love which means he fell in love with the ghostt not the female lead
The male lead again and again remembered all those moments only which were spent with the ghost!!
I can't accept this at all
But otherwise everything else was perfect
Comedy thriller cooking scenes everything clicked but not the romance

Good acting but a very poor plot
I found the drama, and esp. the ending disappointing. I think the writers patched up Chef's relationship with Bong Sun. I hated that in the end Bong Sun turned into Soon Ae. The high pitched voice was awful and made her seem as fake as the ghost when she was trying to seduce the Chef. Bong Sun lost her own personality and warmth that we've seen in the beginning of the series. Even though the Chef cares for Bong Sun from the start and finds out that she's the author of his fav blog, he never does anything to actually get to know her. With Soon Ae he knew all her likes and dislikes, he planned to take her out to every single place she wanted to go. We had several episodes of their dating even though plot-wise 20 minutes would be enough. Alas, he never asks Bong Sun what she likes. Actually, he never takes her out to a date once she tells him about the ghost girl. He tells her he always liked her but he fell for the ghost, and that's the end of their talking about their relationship. It's like he doesn't really care about Bong Sun, and stays with her because it's the only viable option, while she's so desperate to be loved by him that she turns into Soon Ae, because she knows she's his second choice. Moreover, watching the series I really didn't expect it'd come to that. Bong Sun is an introvert, but her personality seems more interesting and mysterious than that of the outgoing Soon Ae, who has nothing interesting going for herself except for lumps of confidence. I really hoped the Chef, who himself used to be a timid boy in his youth, would be willing to do the work and get to know the real Bong Sun. Sadly, that's not what's happening. The ending was sad and disappointing. I'm going to rate it 4/10.Oh, and to be sure. His relationship with Soon Ae sucked even more because it was fake from the start to the end. It was based on lies and deception. Soon Ae pretended to be someone she wasn't just to get laid. And even if she developed feelings for him in the process, she never really showed to him her real self. We've watched the series so we know that the ghost girl with blond hair and the ghost girl with brown hair were two different personalities. Unlike Bong Sun the ghost girl repeatedly lied to the Chef without a blink of an eye. She didn't care for the consequences because she was going to leave anyway. The ghost girl the Chef dated was just a fiction. It was a very poor choice to show us so much of the fake relationship and so little of the real one.

Top marks for acting. Our 3 leads are seldom seen on the small screen as the actor is usually in a musical and actress PBY mostly in movies. Fantastic chemistry too.
Park Bo Young stars as Na Bong Su- a timid girl living in a shell due to her ability to see ghost. Complication and comedy ensues after a ghost inhabit her body and her character undergoes complete changes. And the ghost antics in trying to seduce Chef, owner of the restaurant that Bong Su works as a trainee..
The kiss scenes were good too. I hav to be honest as a romance drama addict, pretend and lukewarm kisses are an eyesore to watch. Too man Korean y dramas have poorly acted kiss scenes with hands lying limp at their sides and awkward head angle. Thank goodness none in Oh my ghost. Their scenes are comedic, romantic and sweet.
I wish Park Bo Young will accept some more dramas to star in. She's a natural actress and very easy on the eyes

And the OST was great! especially Bens (?) - stay. Such a beautiful song.
I would recommend this drama. The beginning can be dragging but it gets so much better! Really! <3

Story: The story was full of mystery and suspense and love and emotions and loads of cuteness! I loved every moment of it! The romance played out so well! But more about that later. The mystery of Soon Ae's death and creepy officer Choi was so good! There were scenes during which I actually got goosebumps! The drama played the supernatural element really well and it blended with everything else. From start to finish this drama was perfectly constructed, with great consistency. Despite the ending being a typical drama ending, it was done right for a change. It left me satisfied and even though I miss these characters, I'm very happy with how the drama ended.
Actors/Characters: I loved the cast! Such talented actors, all of them! And deep, well-written characters. Na Bong Sun was my favorite character! She was so adorable! And I saw so much of myself in her! I connected with her a lot and most of the time I just wanted to give her a huge hug! Park Bo Young did a mind blowing job, playing Na Bong Sun and Shin Soon Ae. You could differentiate between the two girls with only her demeanor. She was so good with both characters, both of which are complete opposites. This girl deserves an award!
Is it just me or does Jo Jung Suk has a Gong Yoo vibe? He's just as gorgeous and just as amazing an actor. I mean everyone in this drama is an amazing actor! And Jo Jung Suk wasn't any different. I loved Kang Seon Woo! He was somewhere between a bad boy and good guy. He was sweet and adorable and had depth as a character. Loved him!
I love Kim Seul Gi! I love the quirky character she plays so well! And she was perfect as Shin Soon Ae. She made me laugh, she made me cry. It was just so much fun to watch her onscreen. Her performance was really great!
Onto my second favorite character, Choi Sung Jae. Hey, don't look at me like that! I have a thing for psycho characters :P But honestly though, how amazing was Im Joo Hwan's acting? Makes me want to check out more of his dramas. One second he is the nicest person you have ever seen and the next he has this sinister, murderous glint in his eyes and the look on his face will haunt your nightmares. No but seriously, I loved is character! I felt sorry for him but he was also so scary! A very interesting character.
Yaay for ahjumma friendships! I seriously loved Seobingo and Seon Woo's mother! They reminded me of the only thing I loved in The Heirs (other than the Chan Young/Bo Na couple). They were so adorable and funny, together and separately. So were all the people who worked in Seon Woo's restaurant. They were such a goofy, endearing group! I also loved Seon Woo's sister and her story was heartbreaking! I loved how pure and innocent she was.
Romance: Na Bong Sun and Kang Seon Woo are ssooo adorable together!!!! Like I can't even!!! Their cuteness had me smiling like a lovesick fool! I seriously loved the two of them together! And even though I liked Soon Ae I was team Bong Sun from the start. The love triangle was very interesting and I loved how it played out.
Overall: I loved this drama to bits and pieces and if you haven't seen it already then what are you waiting for?! With romance, mystery, great acting and amazing story and a pinch of scary this drama will make you fall in love with its awesomeness!
