Am glad that the drama is getting better with each episode. The bromance is off the charts! I love how Myung se is crushing on Haru (that scene with his daughter was hilarious) and how Haru is really enjoying helping them solve cases in spite of himself. And the actor who plays the old villain is superb, he sends shivers down my spine with every little movement. Our poor Haru!
So Ep 4 one scene doesn't make sense to me. The Vietnamese woman supposedly went through immigration / check in…
She was at the entrance to the Gate, not the airport. There were signs with Gate numbers on it. She was so close, yet so far from freedom. I felt really bad for her plight.
Episode 3 was hilarious. I love the banter between our MLs, and even though I could see where the ending was headed, the actual scene had me laughing out loud!
I was a little worried about the writing and directing in the first episode but thankfully the second episode was much better. I seem to be the minority here, but I am loving how eccentric Yong Hwa’s character here is and how he is absolutely unapologetic about his idiosyncrasies. It would be interesting to see how he softens. I did not appreciate Myung se’s toilet scene in the 2nd episode though, but his admonishment to the murderer at the end was surprisingly touching.
Each time she is bewitched/comes into contact with a ghost, she loses a lot of heat and experiences hypothermia,…
If InBum had been there and therefore JiAh’s life not at risk, mum ghost would probably not have revealed the bitter truth. After all, when she was previously bewitched by her mum (Ep 4), she always had the same vision - that mum killed herself. So this is not the first time she’s ‘grabbing’ (getting bewitched by) mum, it’s grabbing mum TILL NEAR DEATH to force mum to reveal the truth that’s different and she had no reason to do this until she found those 1979 records.
just watched ep 12 and i'm actually kinda frustrated that this grabbing method was there all along and she never…
Each time she is bewitched/comes into contact with a ghost, she loses a lot of heat and experiences hypothermia, what more multiple times. This was her last resort as she was risking death by doing this and it made sense to me as her desperation for the truth had reached breaking point by then: she had forfeited the DRE property only to get NO memories from Sung Shik’s exorcism AND she had found the 1979 records which meant she couldn’t trust Hwajung (the only person in the world she trusts), and also that her ENTIRE memory was fabricated, not just that she was missing parts of it. She was also threatening mum ghost to either show her the truth or watch her die trying to find it.
OMG! If you’re as obsessed as I am, one of the writers is sharing the back story of how SYHH came about and even answering questions. You will have to join the Daum Cafe to gain access and can’t share the stories out.

What a satisfying ending! I can’t believe they packed so much into the last episode yet it didn’t feel rushed!…
My fav parts of the final episode: 1. Love how the final showdown between JiAh and Do, the originator of the egg ghosts, was in the same location where her mum had died 20 years ago and JiAh’s fierceness when pronouncing his eternal punishment. It felt like justice was finally served. 2. Also how JiAh kept her promise to InBum to never let him wake up with blood in his hands, and ended up with her own blood in her own hands instead. A true woman of her word. 3. Thought it was clever writing to then make JiAh lose her powers temporarily, and instead of more angst, use it to inject comedy when the gang tried all ways to help her get it back. Also brought back previous exorcist experiences to help her finally exorcise her mother’s ghost, and gave JiAh an opportunity to reflect if this is the job she truly wants. Good job writers! 4. While I didn’t get my kiss (or even hand-holding not for warming purposes!), the moments shared between our leads were at the heart and soul level. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but any physical intimacy in this episode would actually have ‘cheapened’ that very special bond they shared. Ack! 5. We did get our InBum love confession though, just with the wrong person! I could almost picture the writers chuckling evilly amongst themselves when they wrote that in to troll us!
So many, many more in just this one episode but this post is getting too long!
What a satisfying ending! I can’t believe they packed so much into the last episode yet it didn’t feel rushed! Highly recommended for anyone considering this show, the overall story-telling, acting and directing has been stellar.
While it’s a story about exorcism, this show has so much heart, amazing chemistry between all the main casts and most importantly, is a whole lot of FUN . Don’t let the horror tag deter you if you’re not a horror fan as the main focus is on humans, with many life lessons to ponder. As for our leads, as far as I’m concerned, they are already married, they just don’t know it yet. ^^
InBum has always been the one who has been open about his feelings for JiAh, and I believe one of the reasons…
I just did and I can totally imagine it! I am probably just being greedy though for wanting a kiss, (if you’ve watched The Package - also highly recommended for great writing and beautiful scenery - Yonghwa is quite the kisser!) but yours seem a more plausible ending.
To add something positive, the stolen glances between JiAh and In Beom as they all celebrated and had beers in…
Also squealed in ep 15 when InBum asked JiAh if he should bring some snacks home, and she texted him what she wanted after. They are already behaving like a couple!
One more episode to go... I’m not ready to say goodbye to our Daebak Real Estate gang! Sob! Rest of my thoughts…
InBum has always been the one who has been open about his feelings for JiAh, and I believe one of the reasons Show has not gone full on romance for them is because JiAh has not been emotionally ready - she had so much to sort through with her past. In Ep 14, we see her finally starting to heal and be at peace with her past with help and support from InBum and in Ep 15, we see her take the ultimate sacrifice for InBum, taking possession of the egg ghost and exorcising herself even if it means killing herself. For someone whose main purpose in life is to STAY ALIVE until she can exorcise her mum, it speaks volumes about what InBum ultimately means to her. The way she hugged InBum to transfer the egg ghost was so desperate and intimate.
We may not have the typical romance in this show, but the love and bond both JiAh and InBum have for each other as they grew from two very broken people who healed and found comfort and purpose via each other already convinces me that they will be life partners. A kiss in the final episode would still be nice though...
