Loved it alot.

One of the rarest kdramas that is interesting from the very very beginning to its end, doesn't seem to be too long. Yong Hwa and Nara's acting, CGI affects everything was awesome.

An exorcist who is a real estate agent deals with ghosts who prevent buildings meeting there retail value. She becomes involved with a con artist who without realising has psychic ability and may help her free her mother who has become a vengeful ghost and stays by her side. The exorcist is played by Jang Na-ra and the conman by Jung Yong-hwa who do a sterling job as do the superb supporting cast. The plot is clever where they deal with tragic ghosts who refuse to leave as they have unfinished business, there is also a storyline running through the series of the connection between the two leads and the death of her mother. An enjoyable well paced series which is worth a watch and will draw you in with the sad stories of some of the vengeful ghosts.

This supernatural Korean drama is centred on Hong Ji-ah, an exorcist and real estate agent who specialises in selling haunted properties, and Oh In-beom, a conman who persuades people that their properties are haunted to he can sell dubious equipment to them. Inevitably they meet on a job and she discovers that he is actually a psychic; somebody who can be possessed by a ghost so she can exorcise it. After her regular psychic is hurt she ends up working with Oh In-beom despite not approving of how he operated before they met. Early on in the series there are several individual spirits to be exorcised but as it progresses stories that started in the background become the centre of the story; these include finding out what happened many years before during an incident that led to the death of Hong Ji-ah's mother and Oh In-beom's uncle. There is also the problem of an unscrupulous developer who wants the neighbourhood cleared.

I thought this was a really enjoyable series. As is so often the case in Korean dramas there is a fair amount of comedy; this is amusing and mild; never getting in the way of the drama. The story plays out well with early episodes nicely introducing the key characters and showing how the exorcist and psychic work together to deal with the various ghosts. These ghosts are suitably creepy, especially the far more dangerous 'egg ghosts'; rare apparitions that cause numerous deaths in the areas they haunt and are almost impossible to exorcise. The special effects for these are pretty good. The cast is impressive; most obviously Jang Na-ra who plays Hong Ji-ah and Jung Yong-hwa as Oh In-beom. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to fans of supernatural dramas.

These comments are based on watching the series in Korean with English subtitles.

This drama was wholesome. Although the plot was predictable, each episodes were interesting. From character building to storytelling- it was crisp and correctly paced.

I liked all the main characters. In Beom and his hyung definitely had a great chemistry - no wonder the PD praised these two and asked us to watch out for these two!

The side stories of all the ghosts featured were really fun to watch some were upsetting while some were creepy - as in how they were lead to their death.

The message that the drama wanted to deliver to audience I think it is very loud and clear if not in between atleast by the end of the drama.

The show has done justice to its title *Daebak real Estate/ Sell your haunted house* I'm glad they focused on the main plot that revolves around this buisness. It's surprising because many of the dramas with romance tag usually focuses only on romance these days the plot gets deviated to a love triangle 🤣 So this was definitely refreshing.

The acting was amazing.

Hong Ji Ah as a female lead was very bold, intelligent, Sensitive when required, straightforward, witty and sarcastic.

Usually the so called strong/savage female leads in few kdramas are insensitive things and hurting innocent people and also being obsessed with someone she/he likes or are seen forcing their feelings on that person but Hong Ji Ah stands out from this lot to modern description of savagery/strong woman. I'm glad they built characters with lot of thoughts and didn't rush anything in anyway.

In Beom on the other hard was that one person who made this drama a light hearted one - must say this must have been extremely hard for Young Hwa since he has to act as good as Na Ra. I'm glad he did that because he's definitely not sidelined. Everyone noticed how much he has improved over the years so this role is one of his best one so far. More powerful one as well since he had to potray alot of feelings in this drama

Subtle hints of romance was more than enough for me as it didn't kill the main plot so I'm glad I decided to watch this show.

New kdrama watchers will definitely enjoy this one.

However, if you're someone like me who has been watching kdramas for a decade then you might find it repetitive and have a difference of opinion. Nevertheless, I personally enjoyed it and loved it too Will miss this show and the cast. Their relationships were too pure to forget.

Obvious low budget sets, but great use of it. I loved Jang Na-Ra's acting. It was almost empowering. Just enough twists and turns for one to enjoy. Oh not to forget. Interesting genre.
