The story revolves around two polar opposites who wouldn't have met if it hadn't been for luck. Chang Bai Hui is a simple girl with extraordinary taste when it comes to food and dining. Fang Zi Tian is a world renowned Chef who could have easily made headlines if he cared about it. By stroke of fate, their paths cross several times.
1. They both take place for the most part in the kitchen.
2. The ML are both skillful Chefs that can be both arrogant and adorable.
3. FL end up working for the ML in their restaurant (and learning from him).
4. In both, the relationship between the lead starts off as a bit of love and hate; with the ML being very demanding in the kitchen and have little patience. As the show progresses and the ML becomes aware of his feeling, he becomes more patient and gentle with the FL.
5. They both have comedy, though Oh My Ghostess has a lot more.
6. There's a love triangle in both shows.
Big differences:
1. Oh My Ghostess has a supernatural element to it (having two main female leads pursuing the male lead, though one is a ghost). The show also has a crime element to it that gains strenght during the second half.

The series will take place in a Chinese restaurant. Chef Seo Poong, a chef who goes from being a star chef one day to the cook at a failing neighborhood Chinese restaurant the next. Dan Sae Woo, meaning “sweet shrimp”, lives a life of privilege and leisure—she accepted no gifts on her wedding day because her father gave her a check for 300 million won, and she enjoys horseback riding and fencing. Her greatest moment in life happens to coincide with a random bowl of jajangmyun, which leads her to undergo a big change and begin a new life.

Both dramas have the running of a restaurant as their focal point and they have a very similar range of characters: an eccentric and strange but very kind owner, an arrogant and strict but very talented chef and a female protagonist who finds herself involved in the management of the restaurant. Both show the difficulties that arise in this kind of drama such as rival businesses, financial struggles and parents that are not very supportive.
