Bring It On, Ghost (2016)

The format of new ghost stories in the ghost clients and cases they tackle is very nice. Some of the cases were poignant especially the abused kid had me crying.
As with korean costume makeup, the ghost were scary looking. Some scenes were gripping and not for the faint hearted when you watch it at night

What amazes me the most is the script and the writing. Heres a team of writers who knows what it wants to tell and how to tell it in 16ep. The plot when you thought was predictable as they clearly show who the antagonist was from almost the start keeps surprising you as the plot unfolds a d continues to be exciting and suspenseful to the end.

Furthermore i was surprised with Taecyeon and So Hyun. When they first announce the pairing i was worried and hesitant to watch. Surprise surprise that they were adorable together and bashful which works for their character and school student setting. So Hyun was a gem and i love her Hyun Ji who was spunky, can kickass, and super cute. Bong Pal was dorky, grumpy turned sweet. The two sidekicks were fun to watch too. Lastly Kwon Yul's acting was spot on. So eery and scary. So this is another awesome tvn drama that i didnt expect to like but in the end love it.

If you like watching food being prepared, like in "Let's eat", likes ghosts and evil spirits like in "Oh my Ghostess" and "Master Sun", and a cute couple to makes us swoon, yeah, this drama has everything, lol. I wasn't prepared to see such a cute couple, I honestly thought that it wouldn't exist a couple because of their age difference, but that wasn't a problem, their chemistry was amazing.

The drama didn't drag, the mysteries were revealed in their own time, we didn't know everything since the beginning, they knew how to keep the audience entertained with comedy, romance, suspense, scary ghosts, fights and sad stories, I cried with so many ghosts and wanted to kick the ass of some others.

I had only watched one drama with Taec Yeon, "Who Are You?" and he's not so good, so I wasn't expecting anything from him, but wow, he surprised me, he was very good here, the fights with the ghosts, the comedy and the romance, he had so many faces, lol, his faces to Hyun Ji were the cutest thing ever. So Hyun was always great in everything I watched with her so far, she's already is an amazing actress and I loved the fact that they dressed her to look a little older, she was his Noona, lol.

Lee David, Kang Ki Young and Kim Sang Ho also had great scenes, was impossible not to love them, Lee David, Il Rang won my heart, he was so cute and adorable, it's impossible to not him.

We doesn't deserve this!

The most beautiful girl in Korea, Kim So Hyun, is being used for such crap. Have you no decency?
My review must be at least 500 characters in length. I just learned this. This is bad. Where can I get her with conviction?
More text for this bullshit? No, better take this:

It's good to be king, if just for a while
To be there in velvet, yeah, to give 'em a smile
It's good to get high, and never come down
It's good to be king of your own little town

Yeah, the world would swing
Oh, if I were king
Can I help it if I
Still dream time to time?

It's good to be king and have your own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day
And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings
You're out there with winners, it's good to be king

Yeah, I'll be king

It helps to make friends, it's good to meet girls
A sweet little queen who can't run away
It's good to be king, whatever it pays

Excuse me if I

It was suspenseful in this drama that I keep watching more. Yes, these ghosts could be scary. I noticed this drama reminds me of Oh My, Ghost in a way and also these ghosts reminds me of the movie The Grudge. The storyline was enjoyable and it has a solid plot with hilarious moments and good romance without second main character syndrome. Each ghost has their own backstory with strong details what happened to them. The storyline have good balance with action and romance. Yes, it got cheesy a bit, but I enjoyed watching it.
Kim So Hyun is so cute! I remember her in The Moon Embracing the Sun and will watch The Tale of Nokdu and Radio Romance because of her amazing acting and did handle emotions well. Taec Yeon is not bad. Taec Yeon and Kim So Hyun work very well together and they have a good chemistry. Kang Ki Young and Lee David’s characters rocks because they are so hilarious. I honestly think Kang Ki Young is the best comedic actor even I’d seen so far. Their scenes make me lol’d so hard.
The OST are good but not good enough against Hotel Del Luna in terms of spooky and creepy OST. Overall, it was entertaining and amusing. I will surely rewatch it someday.

It was my first horror kdrama and as a fan of horror movies I didnt know what to expect. If you expect a heavy horror themed drama you will be disappointed. There weren't any scary moments(at least for me) and it had a lot of funny moments than scary, but I LOVED this show.


Story - The main male lead is a college student who can see ghosts, due to given curcimstances in the past and he meets a high school student ghost, the female lead.
The story contains a lot of freaky looking ghosts(isn't it that the point tho?), it has a lot of funny moments, loved the fluffy moments between the cast, I really liked the way the story went, it didnt drag on and to be honest, not for once I didnt feel bored watching this drama.

Cast -
Ok Taec Yeon(played Park Bong Pal) - he is one of my favorites kpop performers and I picked this drama only because of him. I loved his acting in this drama and I think he did a really good job and made it entertaining.Hopefully he will get to act with Kim So Hyun some time in the future again.

Kim So Hyun(played Kim Hyun Ji) - I've watched this actress when she played in I can hear your voice(2013), where she played the young version of the female lead and that's it. I must say she is a joy to watch.Such cutiness shouldnt be allowed on screen. :)
Jokes aside, really good performance from her aswell, had really good chemistry with the main lead, which made me believe they were a real couple(duh age difference) in real life. I really got attracted by her and I'm waiting for her next dramas.

Kwon Yool(played Joo Hye Sung)- Its my first drama watching with him and he left me with good impression. He played the evil part too damn well and I was cursing him during some time of the show.

The rest of the cast was really good aswell, we even had some bromance in it between the senior male students, who are big part of the reason this was so entertaining.


Rewatch Value - I'd definetely rewatch this some time in the future. I think it has good rewatch value and I will get entertained again.

Overall the drama was really good. Loved the story and the supernatural part, the cast was lovely and in my opinion it is what they made the show so entertaining. I would recommend watching it. Cheers!

When a person falls in love with a supernatural person, it is beyond imaginary. This base is never outdated.
As the play is made of the supernatural and the imaginary, the thrill grows.

Is a very innocent and clean romantic horror comedy,
Every performer is 100% in acting, in this drama everything we want to see, both good and bad facts are kept the same, and victory is always good.
The pair of Ok Taec Yeon and Kim Soo Hyun looks good on screen. The chemistry between the two is amazing.
Kwon Yool good looks with evil smile,i love love him. The comic timing of Kim Sang Ho, Lee David and Kang Ki Young is awesome.
The story is amazing, the acting is strong, the music is melodious,
I would definitely like to see it again and again, I have fallen in love with it.

Funny and suspenseful drama!

The story itself is good and solid, with overall good characters and great acting, it is very enjoyable to watch.

There's not much to say about the story, and I can't say much without giving main plot point away, but it's pretty evident, fight each other -> team up to fight ghosts -> fall in love. It's well played and the show goes from cute/fluffy moment to suspense to plain comedy to slight horror very well and naturally.
The ending was quite predictable but good anyway.
The ghost stories are quite good and I love the way ghosts are shown in the drama, it's just a bit scary and works very well.

Lee David and Kang Ki Young are amazingly funny, make up for one of the best bromance ever and often steal the show. It's worth watching just for them.
Lee Do Yeon and Kim Sang Ho are also amazing comic relieves.

This is one of the dramas where I was in splits and peels of laughter watching the characters of the sidekicks and the monk. The story kept me sane all through and I did not skip the scenes as I usually do in many dramas. Every scene of the drama seems to be contributing it and did not seem useless. Many of the modern drama cliches were avoided and in itself it was refreshing. Ok Taecyeon for me was the visual highpoint of the drama and at the same time so hyun managed to be pretty and cute not overdoing it. On a whole it was a great experience and I highly recommend this drama.
