Ei Fantasma, Vamos Lutar (2016)

Charming and watchable!

A sweet romantic-drama with charismatic leads Ok Taec Yeon and Kim So Hyun as ghost-hunting university student Park Bong Pal and schoolgirl ghost Kim Hyun Ji, and a well cast and suitably sinister baddie.

I liked both leads and thought they looked cute together even though there's a nine year age gap between them in real life, and enjoyed the flirting and romance between the two leads. I was rooting for them and was glad of the twist which to give the writer and director their due, I didn't see coming.

I mostly liked Monk Myung Chul (Kam Sang Ho) but found it annoying that he says he's been beaten up over the years because of Bong Pal but viewers only find out why towards the end of the series. I understand the desire to hold viewers' attention with a slow reveal but I don't think it would've been detrimental to the story if we'd been told the reason a little earlier. And I could've done with less of sidekicks Kim Il Rang (Lee David) and Choi Cheon Sang (Kang Ki Young) whose comedy scenes were a bit too frequent and long for my liking.

Overall, I found the series very watchable after fast-forwarding the sidekick comedy scenes but I don't think there's enough to warrant re-watching. The music was good in that it didn't intrude.

an entertaining romp

This one was mostly fun with a few serious moments sprinkled in.

I knew I would actually finish the drama when I pretty much fell in love with the secondary characters. Because as much as I like the leads, if they had been the only thing going for this drama, I probably would have dropped it since 16 episodes is longish for me. BUT, because all of the secondary characters were equally as amazing (love that comedy relief!), I kept watching. Love the ghost-hunting pair of crazies. They're just so quirky and fun and absolutely not suited for that type of job. And the monk, oh my goodness, once I got used to him, he became one of my favorite characters.

But in the end, I really kept watching for Kwon Yool's character. Because while he terrified me, at the same time, as more and more of his story unfolded, I prayed for a hopeful resolution for him. I had to know what happened to him in particular, so I kept watching, and I am glad that I did. I felt the most empathy for him, in the entire drama, which probably sounds strange, but is also true.

Now, as for the storyline with the leads, I guessed Hyun Ji's plotline. Not all of the elements tying everyone together, but the rest of her story is not all that original so I knew by the end of episode 2 what she really was. Which is fine, but it does show that while the drama is supremely fun, with all of the side characters and their personalities elevating the story to a bit more of a comedy than horror, the main story is just sort of basic. The leads couldn't have carried this drama alone. Bong Pal, as tsundere characters go, warmed up pretty quickly, but I actually liked him and Hyun Ji more before they started liking each other, if that makes sense. They were more fun when their interactions had a bit more bite.

And for a girl who's a pretty tough ghost, she didn't do a lot of screaming or fighting back in the last 2 episodes. Even just making yourself dead weight, especially knowing your kidnapper needs you, would have made a lot more sense. So parts of the ending particularly frustrated me because an actual persona in real life would have behaved differently if they had actually been kidnapped and knew someone was there to rescue them. And what happened to Hyun Ji's necklace? Because it was never resolved as to whether her mom gave it to her or not.

So while I did enjoy it and have rated it fairly high, there were some storytelling and timing issues that I wish hadn't happened

Легко и игриво

Не люблю я истории про призраков и пришла изначально на Ок Тэкена, но история затянула и очень понравилась. Так как не все истории про призраков пугающие, как например "Властитель солнца" Некоторые могут быть даже забавные. Дорама очень милая на самом деле. В ней много забавных моментов, которые заставят вас улыбаться и отвлечься. Каждый эпизод содержит подсюжет, который не даст вам соскучится от основного сюжета. понравилось, что все шло ровно, без скачков и затягивания. Потрясающий каст актеров. Самое сложное конечно досталось Квон Юлю. С таким красивым лицом, сыграть такого злодея - это прекрасно наблюдать. Буду ли я смотреть еще раз? скорее всего нет, так как дорама запомнилась и если только стереть память чтобы увидеть это снова.

Questo non è un drama horror nonostante sia catalogato in tal genere. E' una storia d'amore tra una fantasma e un cacciatore di tali. Nel complesso molte cose non funzionano e avrei preferito che avessero esplorato maggiormente il rapporto tra i due protagonisti, soprattutto nel seconda parte quando tutta l'attenzione ci viene spostata sul cattivone di turno. Cattivone che sì... Ma anche no. Potevano basare la storia solo sul fattore amore e caccia senza infilarci anche lui anche se poi il tutto e tutti i personaggi sono in qualche maniera collegati al protagonista. Ecco, la cosa che ho amato davvero tanto sono stati i due principali amanti. Il resto ci sta ma poteva essere meglio.
Altro personaggio amato è stato Choi Cheon Sang: ho riso come una matta per lui, una delle migliori spalle comiche di sempre XD
Guardatevi il drama solo per la storia d'amore.

Sundae Soup :3

(English is not my first language, sorry if i made some mistakes.)
I started watching this drama because of Ok Taec-yeon, his acting was wonderful in Vincenzo and now I want to see everything this man does, no matter what it is. It's amazing how his personality changed from character to character, proving he's an amazing actor.
Overall I really liked it, it's ideal for those looking for something light, cute and to pass the time. Don't think that just because the site says that have terror that it's going to be something like The Conjuring that has jump scares every five seconds, the ghosts I would say that are very cute, and it also gave me a ghostbusters vibe.
The main couple was also very cute to see, always good to see healthy couples in dramas, where the males leads are not completely abusive and the girls submissive (I'm looking at you Playfull Kiss). The other couple, who is actually a bromance, was also very fun to watch, they did so many funny things and even more funny because they do it together.
Anyway, let's talk about some points that bothered me, thankfully there weren't many:
- It made me nervous when that monk went to investigate on his own, discovered something, such as that the villain in the story was chasing Bong Pal and his father for a long time (5 years if I'm not mistaken) and HE DIDN'T EVEN WENT TO TALK HIS DISCOVERS TO BONG PAL, or, even tell about the weapon that could destroy the damn evil spirit.
- In my opinion the drama didn't need to have 16 episodes, I had the feeling that after a while they were dragging certain things, nothing that wasn't bearable.
- The OST was more or less, nothing very memorable.

You Have To Stick With It

I went the first half of this show fast-forwarding through a lot of stuff that I felt was getting boring or was overkill. Towards the end it actually picked up and got interesting. I don't have a whole lot to say about it. It was decent, but I feel like it would've been a great 8 episode series and instead it's an okay 16 episode series. Below are just my notes that I took while watching.

I knew I recognized him, but I had to look it up to place him. I wish I hadn't because I've only ever seen him in Vincenzo and now when I see him I'm like, "Ughhhh this douche bag." lol

This guy started coughing/choking while he was at that funeral, and now he's here with his friend... who sees ghosts. Please tell me this man didn't die.

I have been fast-forwarding like mad through this show. Like, it's okay, but it's getting boring.

However, they just went to exorcize the brother who's going nuts who they thought was being tortured by his dead ex-girlfriend, and I just feel the need to comment.

I don't want to say he's to blame because she ran into traffic but I also sort of want to blame him. You specifically didn't tell her you were going to have brain surgery, then at the last minute, call her and tell her you're sorry and how you might not be back, which OF COURSE throws her into a panic, which caused her to not pay attention. Like why do that at the last minute if you wanted to keep it from her!?

Really? This guy is dead? That was such a ridiculously minor accident. He hit plastic barricades going about 25mph.

LMAO
In Rang: "Hey... Bong Pal, is Hyeon Ji with you?"
Bong Pal: * silence *
Cheon Sang: *little wave to this empty chair, little wave to that empty chair *

Omg her flashback to her accident is ridiculous. It's not raining and no one is around. Suddenly it is raining, and not only do like 6 people come out of nowhere, but they all have open umbrellas. lol

Wow and it gets worse. The people showed up with umbrellas right away, yet he got out and was talking to her solo first. Make up your mind show. Just a little bit of continuity.

Is Hyeon Ji's mom the one that seems to be getting used by Hye Seong via fear?

Man Korean hospitals have ZERO security. The amount of times I've seen bad guys trying to murder people on hospital floors and hospital roofs in Korean dramas is off the charts. lol

You see him and you just hug him and cry instead of being like, "Yo, I'm in a coma upstairs!" Like, this is the important info. I hate when they do that.

"Doctor, why can't she remember anything!?" Damn, she just woke up from a five year coma like 10 seconds ago. Give her a break.

Man, the irony of the mother is unmatched. Doesn't like Bong Pal because "You can't just go around trusting anyone in this world." but instantly trusts the man who tried to kill her daughter TWICE and probably will try again a few more times.

Okay, so the series picked up, the ending is pretty much exactly what you expect. It would've been a great 8 episode series but instead it's just an okay 16 episode series.
