My first Joo Won series. I love him, especially with Yoo In-soo and/or Eum Moon-suk. The first half was fun as it was focused on ghost cases. While I enjoyed the majority of this series, I hated the romance for main CP, and wished they would have scrapped it. What a buzzkill. I will likely not watch another series with Kwon Na-ra as main FL as I don't find much to like about her characters. I wanted to drop this so many times because of her. I actually rooted more for the unconventional 2CP, and stayed for the bromance and ghosts. I truly miss their bickering.

Random Recommendation: 

Rating: 3/5

Two (2/5)


One (1/5)
