Oh My Ghost Episode 5

Two Stars

The ghost is really getting on my last nerve. Why would Bong Seon care about her father or even want to help the ghost after being posessed for two weeks and not remembering anything. Sun Ae is so selfish for abusing Bong Seon's body like that for her own benefit, not even asking for consent. BS made it clear that she want SA to leave her alone but no, the virgin ghost and her horniness are more important as well as people that BS doesn't even know. I hope there will be some character development because otherwhise the main thing about this show (the ghost) ruins something that could have been really fun and interesting. The ghost lacks a moral conscience and awareness fr... using BS body to have sex with the chef, are you for real..

Spooky and fun!

Being possessed is scary. I had wondered how the possession thing would work in Oh My Ghost. So after laughing and having a good time while poor Bong Seon was possessed it was a like getting a bucket of ice water to the face. The writers and actress did a good job showing viewers the terror of losing time. Falling a sleep and then waking up a whole week later. Not remembering what had happened or . . . anything. It's scary!

This episode does a good job of fleshing out Bong Seon, but more as a fearful person. She calls her grandma. But clearing the advice of ignoring ghosts has never worked. Her grandmother is a shaman, why don't they have the knowledge to protect themselves? Clearly being scared all the time is not a solution.

Seon Woo definitely shines here! He may seem like a mean person, but he's got a heart of gold. It's nice to see how much he cares. Giving second chances and going out of his way to help employees. Seon Woo is so awkward and charming that I adore him. His little finger snapping is so cute!

That said I'm enjoying all the sub plots and other plotlines. The Shaman who is supposed to be looking for Sun Ae is a curious woman. She has a gift but she's definitely working Seon Woo's mother for money. And I'm very curious as to whether or not Seong Jae is possessed. Something is fishy there! And I love it.

Overall another solid episode. My biggest complaint is Sun Ae. It never registered to her how scared Bong Seon was. Maybe if she apologized and felt remorse they could talk. Figure some things out. The way the episode's cliffhanger left things made me . . . annoyed. I get it it's an emergency, but Sun Ae is not coming out looking good from this. Despite all this the Oh My Ghost is still a really warm and funny series. Here's to hoping that Sun Ae and Bong Seon will soon be friends and can help each other out.
