Handsome lead, same old clichés, predictable script

This is a very light, popcorn-type series clearly aimed at fans of the male lead (the same actor from When the Phone Rings). And the show knows it.

Beyond the attractive protagonist, the story offers nothing new. It runs entirely on the familiar supernatural formula these dramas have used many times before:

A ghost with an unresolved injustice.

The protagonist receives privileged information from the spirit.

To everyone else he looks crazy because he talks to the ghost or suddenly acts possessed.

Using that information, he confronts the culprit.

The guilty party panics or exposes themselves.

Moral justice is delivered and the spirit finally moves on.

And that’s the system.

This isn’t really a legal drama, because the protagonist already knows the truth from the beginning. The courtroom simply becomes a stage to reveal what the ghost already told him.

0 out of 5 stars if you’re looking for something original.
5 out of 5 if you just want to watch your favorite actor and don’t care about the story at all.
