Venda Sua Casa Mal-Assombrada (2021)

Multiple wrongs made right a. Great drama

What a great great Drama absolutely love these type of fun fantasy mysterious crime solving just like zombie detective(watch if you haven't) you didn't want them to end.
Between Jang na ra, Jung yong Hwa, kanh Hong suk and Kang Mal geum there acting was superb made you feel all there emotions happy, funny or sad. Then we have Ahn kil Kang who always aces as the bad guy with his facial emotions. I loved the storyline of an exorcist and a medium who start off on the wrong side. Oh in beom is running a ghost scam and convincing his customers to buy his equipment until he crosses path with Hong ji ah of Daebak reality who rids homes and businesses of real ghost then sell there place. Oh in beom was always told to keep his crystal necklace on no matter what by his uncle who they say killed 7 people in a fire then committed suicide. Now grown-up hes trying to find any information on the fire and what really happened 20 years ago as he remembers being at Daebak realty when he was younger. Once she realizes he's a medium which he didn't know she uses him to try and send off her vengeful mother who's by her side for 20yrs, but it doesn't work.. The story continues as more cases seems to be involving Do Hak sung construction company in his underhanded fight for power and money.
The story continues of them sending off all type of ghost. Until they meet the egg face(which is formed what multiple people die at the same time, samenplace etc.) Its very difficult to get rid of that how Jiah mom. Died. Watch the drama??????????????

Ghostbusters Kdrama Style

Likes:
1. Perfect combination of badass Jia and cool In Bum ? i didnt mind that they didnt end up together, coz Inbum might lose his psychic (special) abilities ☺ They are like Kdrama version of ghostbusters!
2. I really liked the episodic cases, though towards the middle the main story was losing steam. The tone of the drama also changed from fun to somber.
3. No matter how many times they show it, i cant get enough of Inbum whenever he is possessed by the spirits.
4. Jia's mom had a nice sendoff. I thought they were going to give her a fantastic goodbye but what we got was beautiful and perfect.
5. Loved the bromance between Jichul and Inbum. Even Jia lost to their i love yous ? i also liked Hwajeong and how she took care of Jia.
6. This drama had the oddest PPL (men's underwear lol).
7. Are they releasing the OST album? I hope so! I keep hearing "I Got you!"?? In my mind all day

Dislikes:
1. The exorcism of the egg ghost wasn't spectacular as I expected it to be.
2. Do Hak Sung was a boring villain.

Slow storyline

Slow storyline which does not elaborate much on anything else aside from exorcism related, which fits the title, no complains.
The story can bring out more each other's backstory instead. Maybe it is just me, but I felt it is up to the viewers to decide the relationship between each characters. Either the explanation was not clear or vague for my opinion.

Jang na-ra may be a good actress but her expression felt stiff this time through all episodes (unlike her previous dramas, which I know, was supposed to be light hearted). Might be due to her role in this drama, but I felt it could have improvements on this part (see character development).

However jung yong hwa's acting was surprisingly good in this. You can see that he matured through the episodes tho some dialogues are still tacky. And his friend, I am not sure if he supposed to love yong hwa or not??? I felt some BL going on between them, am I over thinking?

The ending! I do not fancy an ending like a first episode kind. Nothing ever changes and I want a season 2 now.

very very good

Just finished watching this, a couple of years behind everyone else but then there's no expriy date on excellent television. Abolutely loved it, every moment, and jang Na-ra's performance is absultely grupping, spellbinding, notew perfect in every sece. I'm getting used to the excellence of Korean female lead actors but this was a standout alongside IU's work in Hotel del Luna. And the ending - which is sometimes either a little rushed or too drawn out in Kdrama - was completely perfect, giving a completely acceptable rounding off of the story.

Obviously production qualities were superb.

One question, and I hope someone can help; the music we hear on the actual soundtrack does not all seem to be on the OST that I have found on the internet. (I cannot find a copy of the cd) I am particularly interested in the instrumental sections, particularly the main title opening credits theme. PLEASE can someone tell me what the full soundtrack credits are - on the actual drama, not the OST.

Really great television. Next for us is going to be something more recent - THE BEQUEATHED - which I have seen only a few minutes of so far but looks good.

Exceeded Expectations

This is one that does a good job with blending drama/horror, humor, and tear-jerking moments. I've been holding off on watching this for quite some time because this is a genre/plot that usually isn't done very well. But happily, it became one where I continued to look forward to every next episode until the last.

The main crew of the cast had fantastic chemistry with one another- one that makes you smile with them, cry with them, and root for them. The plot flow was done really well and there was enough "houses to sell" stories in addition to the main underlying story to keep it satisfying. (Sometimes feel tricked with other series where they start off with one or two individual stories and then just drag the rest of episodes into the main one.) It isn't the most complex plot you'll come across but it also isn't an overly simplified one. There are some plot holes but a perfect plot with heavy attention to detail isn't something that should be expected too much for a supernatural genre.

There is a light layer of corny such as the FL always being dressed in black and the ML being dressed mostly in white, etc. But in this case, it works well as it's part of the charm. It is quite difficult to be able to smoothly incorporate a natural lighthearted feel for a plot with multiple darker undertones, so the higher score for the series is well deserved. The only distracting negative was the very obvious ad placement/marketing in certain scenes where it took it a bit too far with the selling of the drinks/snacks/skincare. Nevertheless, highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a balance of emotional triggers.

unexpected bursting chemistry and heartwarming in a pretty dark way

The concept itself is pretty refreshing. One is specialist in eliminating spirits in houses that can't be sold and one is specialist in tricking people believing that their property is haunted by a ghost.
Every exorcism that's been done got a good background story. There are stories that made me sad and even mad of how the victim ended up dead.
The past between the main leads are also quite tragic and what I don't expect is , Jang Nara and Yong Hwa's chemistry is just so good even the skinship is mostly hand holding and there's not even more than that.
Quite satisfied with the ending even I hope there's more between the main leads.

Buen cast.

Este drama lo empecé y lo deje en la primera mitad porque me pareció aburrido además de que competía con otros mucho mejores pero lo volví a retomar porque soy un fan de jang na ra así que me decidí por terminarlo antes de juzgarlo pero si en la primera mitad se aburren no les recomiendo retomarlo porque se pone todavía aun mas aburrido. Primero que nada la premisa del drama es una historia de exorcistas y en los primeros capítulos (1-4) parece atrapante por la producción y las visuales de los fantasmas como de los efectos en ellos al ser poseídos o también cuando ven los restos por donde transitaban los fantasmas me pareció que esta muy logrado y estoy más que satisfecho porque es uno de los puntos fuertes del drama pero poco a poco la historia empieza a tornarse de forma muy obvia y capitulo a capitulo empieza a perder esa esencia de terror, entiendo que se esta desarrollando el pasado de los personajes pero creo que podría haberse tomado desde un punto de vista mas interesante para contarlo.
en cuanto a la actuación, este a mi parecer es el punto más fuerte de todos y el porque termine este drama. tanto jang na ra como jung yong hwa y también kang hong suk lo dieron todo, sus personajes estan tan bien actuados que se pueden sentir verdaderamente los sentimientos que quieren transmitir.
En cuanto a música creo que junto a la historia forman los puntos mas débiles del drama

Interessante

Um drama interessante de se assistir. O enredo é decente assim como a atuação, quase tudo aqui foi equilibrido, só acho que deveriam ter diminuido na comédia um pouco, ficaria mais coerente com enredo porém não prejudicou muito.

A protagonista é daquelas girl power, forte destemida, um pouco mal humorada mais tem um coração bom, era um pouco irritante ás vezes, rsrsr mais quem não é não é mesmo, contudo gostei muito da personagem, assim como gostei do protagonista masculino também, ele era o oposto dela ,achei que os dois formaram uma bela dupla o que faltava em um o outro complementava.

As histórias dos fantasmas eram bem interessante, a parte do terror foi bem feita, confesso que levei vários sustos , o clima era tenso, bem caracteísticos de filme de terror.

Nem tudo é perfeito por aqui, mesmo sendo cativante o drama tinha seus erros, em algum momento o drama ficou arrastado e um pouco previsível, principalmente na reta final porém ainda sim não tirou o brilho do show.

Em fim é assistivel , não é exepcional mas é bem feito , algo descente para se assistir.

An interesting drama to watch. The plot is decent as well as the acting, almost everything here was balanced, I just think they should have reduced the comedy a little, it would be more coherent with the plot but it didn't hurt much.

The protagonist is one of those girl power, strong fearless, a little moody but she has a good heart, she was a little annoying at times, lol but who is not really, however I really liked the character, as I liked the male protagonist too, he was the opposite of her, I thought the two formed a beautiful duo what was missing in one the other complemented.

The ghost stories were very interesting, the horror part was well done, I confess that I had several scares, the atmosphere was tense, very characteristic of a horror movie.

Not everything is perfect around here, even though the drama was captivating, it had its mistakes, at some point the drama got dragged out and a little predictable, especially in the final stretch, but it still didn't take the shine off the show.

In the end it's watchable, it's not exceptional but it's well done, something decent to watch.

Amazingly Addictive

I have become a big fan of sleep as of late and I have, in a situation where I am a bit tired and can choose between staying up or shut eye, I always chose rest or sleep. So it's been a while where I have chosen to stay up, especially to watch a drama but this drama was worth staying up for. It's quite addictive, and it's easy to click to the next episode without even realizing.

Story: Although ghost stories and exorcisms are nothing new, this drama takes a fresh angle by incorporating the real estate market and shedding light to SK's real estate problem. It ties in well to the episodic cases and the main storyline. The episodic cases are interesting and enough depth is given to these short-appearing characters. I really liked how all the spirts did not talk or have expressions. Unlike other dramas that have ghosts acting just like humans, this non-expression state honed in the point that these spirits are not human; they are a remnant of something that once was and something that needs to go. I also really appreciated the female lead's relationships with her mother and her secretary/aunt. It was so relatable for her to be so independent yet also dependent on her mother, something I think a lot of adults or young adults can relate to with their parents.

In terms of acting, everyone did a pretty good job but Jang Nara absolutely nailed it. I really wish there more female characters like Hong Ji Ah (despite the increase of strong-willed female leads, I do find most of these intelligent and aloof roles go to the male characters) but it was Jang Nara that made her such a great character. Her tone of voice, her enunciation of her certain words, her gait and her facial expressions, like the slight narrowing of her eyes, were all so on point. In a less experienced actress's hands, Hong Ji Ah may have come off as pretentious or rude. I very much appreciate that Hong Ji Ah is given struggles and has to make important decisions - aka she is an active character.

The music was good and added some nice quirk. The production was well-done too and I liked the homey street area set location. While the drama does have some interesting twists, there are no major crazy shockers that take away the enjoyment of a re-watch. Overall, recommends hands down, especially if you want something with solid writing, a very interesting and well-written female lead and/or spooky themes. Spoilers below:





***SPOILERS***

So why not a higher rating if I loved this so much?

First, the villain character, Do Hak Sung, felt so one-note that he felt less like a character and almost more like a concept or plot device. Second, Kim Tae Jin and the ML's uncle Oh Sung Shik. I know the drama was trying to create two somewhat morally grey but ultimately sympathetic characters with these two but I could not come to like either. You can do bad things but there are some bad things (even minor bad things) you cannot do for audience to like you and the drama failed on that, for me.

Kim Tae Jin was supposed to be what I guess was a down-on-his-luck thug that served as comedic relief and ultimately comes around but I personally am still very upset at the problems he caused. Irl, he would be the type where I would maybe forgive but never call a friend. And Oh Sung Shik chose to put himself or his family over others twice. And when given a chance to try to repent aka confess, he eschews that again, to his own detriment. I know that he was doing it all for this family and it really Do Hak Sung's fault but this is where I come back to Do Hak Sung feeling less like a character and more like a plot device. To me, Oh Sung Shik's actions are equivalent to being forced into unforeseen circumstances (like a natural disaster) and choosing to sacrifice others over yourself. I don't hate him and I cannot condemn him but I don't have much good feelings toward him either.

But overall minor stuff in an otherwise amazing drama!

Good Enough

Korean Drama 'Sell Your Haunted House' is a plethora of ghosts and smooth dynamics.

The best thing about this drama is the lack of romance. The two did have chemistry and their dynamics were spot on, but they were not romantic ones. The ghost stories were all pretty interesting as well, and were nicely knitted into the main mystery. However, the latter was stretched out a bit too far. Still, the take on the ghost, from their abilities, to their makeup, was a refreshing touch. The exorcist ceremonial characteristics were also a factor that gave originality to the drama.

Finally, the performances were all great, but this needs a special shout-out to Jang Na Ra who proves that she can play rom com leads as well as dynamic, hardcore women.

So, overall, 8 out of 10.

A Meaningful Drama!!

The drama is about a female exorcist and her special psychic. Hong Ji Ah runs a real estate business of exorcism and when she meets Oh In bum she realises that he is a special psychic without knowing their past connection.
The drama is very good. I'm a very scaredy cat but this drama wasn't that scary. The drama is a very meaningful drama with short stories mixed to make the whole bigger drama. Each episode almost gives us a new story and a new meaning of life.
I was disappointed with the villain, he wasnt that scary as a villain should be.
The acting was amazing. But I loved Jang Na-ra the most. So beautiful, powerful, a femme fatale. She nailed her character.
Ah. I'm definitely going to miss the drama.
