Bias aside, Park Bo Young is excellent here. She managed to deliver two characters in one, and not she only did that, but she made me feel for those two characters. I could easily close my eyes and still know who was who. She's not the only one shining on this drama though, Kim Seul Gi was also very good, like she is most of times, it's so sad that she doesn't have more leading roles, she has more talent than many leading actresses nowadays.
Also I was surprised by Jo Jung Suk, I had only seem him as a guest role in another drama (Legend of The Blue Sea) and saddly his appearence was too small to have a solid impression at all, so I was happy to accompain him from the beginning to end. Made me want to watch Jealousy Incarnate ASAP. And last but not least, I really liked Im Joo Hwa as well. His villain wasn't unforgetable, but it was like his acting could break the fourth wall, you know. People on the drama could feel something odd about him, as well as the viewers.
The story was also pretty original as far I know. Obviously it still has some traits that kdramas can't seem to let go of like the uber talented jerk-ish male lead, the dirty poor yet golden hearted female lead, the nagging mother-in-law and obviously a love triangle. However, unlike many other kdramas, OMG masterfully descontructs and turn into new things these same clichés. Even the love triangle is something completely original and well played.
I don't have that many complains about the show, I guess it's only major flaw was that it sometimes became boring and too slow. Not the good kind of slow, but just plainly slow. Due to this I was slow to finish, that's why I didn't give it a 9 (10 is only for the dramas that manage to touch me deep and only one has done it so far). That and I also felt that some drama on the last episodes could be avoided, also some plot points were a bit loose, and the villains backstory could be more elaborated.
Haha I ended up complaining a lot, but oh well.
The music was good, nothing more or less. I can't even remember it that well if I'm going to be honest.
Overall Oh My Ghostess is an entertaining ride. Not the most fun, not the most heartbreaking, not the most romantic, but good enough to make you like and watch it until the end.

The suspense? It will keep you going. There is this certain character who'll make you curious, and some mysterious events which the writer skillfully plotted so that these questions won't be answered until you completed the entire drama.
The romance? There is more than enough of it; therefore, those who love romance dramas will definitely fall for this one. As for me, I had a love-hate feeling since episode 7. I realized that I liked Shin Sun Ae so much—and bled for her, too—enough to dislike the real Na Bong Seon. Love is happiness and sadness. :-( Ouch! My throat still hurts.
The casts? Like always, Kim Seul Gi (Shin Sun Ae) is hilarious that I always watch the dramas she's in. She's not pretty as doll but her funny personality is enough to make you like her. Park Bo Young (Na Bong Seon) is surprisingly energetic and cute. I didn't see it coming because she was serious in other dramas and movies. However, her voice is annoyingly loud. Jo Jung Suk (Kang Seon Woo), on the other hand, is a natural actor. I didn't swoon all over him, and I can't see myself doing so in the future, but he truly did a great job here. He earned my respect. Overall, that was a bunch of amazingly brilliant actors!
The OST? Actually, I neither remember how those sounded nor I care.
I won't rewatch this.
Somehow, "49 Days" and "Oh My Ghost" are similar; although, the first one is melodramatic while the latter is more comedic.
Overall Rating: 7.5/10

The supernatural and culinary themed story was nice and refreshing (and don't be scared, it's not scary at all), but honestly, it's mostly the acting that kept the story interesting (the plot itself, if there was any... honestly was not that impressive). It's Bo-young and Seung-gi's cuteness and humour separates this show from any other kdrama.
If you wanna see a cute and funny romantic comedy, or just like to see some cooking, or like some ghost and suspense, this is the show to watch!

Story line, a rigid, perfectionist, and lonely man runs into a girl with special abilities who turns his world upside over. All reminding us to live now, love now. Never take the next moment for granted.
Other supporting cast members were spot on and rounded out the story wonderfully.
Music: ideally placed yet not wormy.
Btw- if you are looking for a villain to go on any list, this drama has one and he is flawless in his portrayal of a kindness mask worn by pure evil - he was my takeaway role.
Watch again, maybe... good writing, directing, & production are rare now days.

I LOVED IT. It was a really unique story and I don’t think I’ve seen something like it before. I mean, maybe there’s a similar one out there but not to my knowledge. For me, as I’ve been watching animes and reading mangas as well, I typically don’t like having fantasy and romance together but this was beyond my expectations. I thought at first it will be a bit like Master’s Sun- a girl sees ghosts and then a ghost bothers her and then somehow, somewhere she’ll fall in love with the Chef but I have been proven wrong. I love how they were consistent with the story. Kim Seulgi was apparently a virgin ghost and has a grudge about it that’s why she can’t ascend to heaven. It wouldn’t be a Korean drama if not for the amazing fate (more like coincidences) that it just so happens that all the main casts have one connection all together- the ghost. The story about finding about the real grudge of the ghost, Bongsun and Chef falling in love, and finding out mysteries from 3 years ago while sticking to the ghost story was so great. I loved how they were very consistent about it. As a person who has seen quite a lot, I tend to look for loopholes in the story but I haven’t seen one in this story-wise. I think I really just have been rambling but I do like the story and it’s very original. The ending was a bit rushed spending one episode revealing everything but I found closure in it. Some people say it was your typical send-to-abroad and then a makeover ending but for me, it was needed. All in all, it was a cute story and I’ll tell more about how I loved the characters in the “character” section.

Park Bo Young and Jo Jung Suk make a great pairing in this romantic/comedy drama. The characters were played almost to perfection. Jo Jung Suk has still yet to fail in comedy roles, for me. I was unfamiliar with Kim Seul Gi before this drama but she played Soon Ae really well.
Honourable mention for Im Joo Hwan who played a cracking part as evil spirit copper Officer Choi. Whoa his acting was superb.
The drama on a whole was very good. Waiting week on week for the next two episodes was excruciating at times but now that it's finished, i can imagine those that haven't seen it, will benefit from marathon-ing it.
For me though there was just something lacking ... it was definitely not the romance or the comedy. the story was a bit far fetched in places and sometimes the story moved too fast.
Loved the music.
All in all a really great drama for 2015. Well worth a watch and even better if you can marathon it. I may in time watch it again.

LET GO BACK TO PRE-2020 AND ENJOY GOOD OLD DRAMAS
Its been a minute since I met wrtiters that get it right from the begining to the end and i will say this Oh my ghost's writers did an amazing job writting captivating dialogues.WHat was funny was funny,what was serious was serious and everything in between.I will admit that I normally skip fantasy/spritual tropes but i dont know how i pressed play on this one,Maybe Its because am going back in times with dramas pre-2020 when directors and producers were giving us well thought off scripts or maybe Park bo young brought me here from "Tomorrow with you" She is slowly becoming one of my favorites actresses.but the stars of the show were Chef Kang Sun-woo's restaurant staff namely ,Seo joon/Cordon,Heo Min Soo,Choi Ji Woong and JO Dong Cheol.These guys carried the whole show on their backs, the brotherhood,the bromance and the family connection were out of this world.I have never seen such a team of individals in a drama that will go to the end of the earth for their leader.
The Kitchen scenes were so real that you wanted to vidit the restaurant and hear them say "Fire" or "yes chef" they brought the comedy,the wittiness,they brought the craze and anything in between.
I will not spoil the story by talking about the ghost part so please watch it and you will not regret it.

Now coming to the actings...There was no overacting at all..Each and everyone in the whole team played well. Also, the fact that they were been able to see the girl who acted as the ghost in real life but, acting as not able to see her was great. I loved all the chef's acting very much. Especially the sous chef was so charming in his talking and he always cared for Bong Seon like he was her brother.
Oh! By the way. When I started watching this drama I was just so startled to hear the name Na Bong Seon again as it reminded me of Do Bong Soon from Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. And also I've become a big fan of Park Bo Young's acting after that drama.
So that's all about my review..If you are reading this then again I'll tell you to watch this drama even if you don't believe in fantasies. And lastly, remember:
YOU ARE LOVELY
I AM LOVELY &
THIS DRAMA IS LOVELY
LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY..💜

Such a cute heartwarming romcom
This show took me a few episodes to really get into, first and second halves have drastically different vibes but I thought the script is original, fun and engaging throughout. I couldn't wait to watch the next episode.I'm not the biggest fan of the casting for Ghost, and FL is playing this hard to watch weak character that makes it so hard to like her. But that's the point.
But I loved it, I think it's my favourite romcom so far.
I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a fun, emotional, engaging romantic drama to watch.
