First off, if you want to watch something that will make you cry once in a while, watch this... But do it sparingly! Literally, EVERY episode has a tear-jerking moment where, if you don't space it out enough, you'll end up wanting to shake these characters for dear life. By the last few episodes, I just kind of held off on crying at the start of an episode because I knew there would probably be another scene like it later and, lo and behold, I was right.

When you first watch this, you'll have the notion that the storyline is going to be good. Birth mom is dead, but actually, she's a ghost! And even better yet, she's watching over her family and friends, who have not moved on over the last 5 years since she parted. Her husband re-married, but he seems so listless, and the new wife kind of just... exists. The daughter would be the reason as to why the female lead works so hard to stick around. And after a certain event, the ghost mom is now brought to life!

So, with these arcs being introduced, you'd think they'd have a good story to tell, right? They even added other ghosts with storylines in the mix and they find out the ghost mom is brought to life. There's even a potential love interest with a ghost family's son! But, what happens? Nothing. In fact, you get introduced to these new storylines and the plots fizzle out within an episode, making you wonder why you watched it in the first place.

And let's not even start with the last 5-6 episodes when they introduced the exorcist and that stupid "wish." So, we spent 10 episodes of "story-building" just to get everything on the table scrapped for new arcs?! Mix that with some crying and you're given this drama.

I won't say the drama didn't have its moments, but they were far and few in between. You end up hoping that the next episode will continue the arcs that were mentioned in past episodes, but instead they have the audacity to have flashbacks on moments that you literally watched less than an hour ago! Then you wonder, "With what little time you have left, why are you spending so much of it on crying, flashbacks, and reflection?! Do something about it!" Which doesn't even hit these characters until the very last episode! Ugh... I wasted so much time on this, and you can tell the writers were scrambling for a suitable ending to this drama while everything else was just filler, crying, filler, crying, and maybe some story progression.

I will say that the acting was good, for what it's worth. Given what script and plot they had, I'm sure the actors did what they could with it. I really felt for these characters and their stories in the beginning and stayed because I wanted to see it thru the end with them. The background music was good and I never felt it was out of place.

Would I re-watch this? Absolutely not. If I had known what I was in for, I'd probably not put this anywhere close to the top of my "to-watch" list. If I had the time and didn't plan on being too invested into a drama, I'd put this as background noise with the occasional interest.

Do I encourage you to watch this? Only if you have absolutely nothing else to watch.
