Glenn Whipp Los Angeles Times Although much of the film's broad humor at times makes it feel like an unwanted mash-up of "Scary Movie" and "Date Movie," writer-director Hwang In-ho invests the material with enough clever scenarios to keep it engaging. Rated: 3/5 Dec 15, 2011 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International An understandable hit in its country, this Korean rom-com/horror film charmingly sneaks its way under your skin.

Andrew N "Why is dating so hard?" has never been said with more conviction. Normally, you don't need to take out a life insurance policy! This comedy is perfectly paced, packed with charm and really funny. Both leads were superb, playing their roles with a lot of heart. I always expect that of Son Ye-Jin, but Lee Min-ki matches her charisma. There are some truly marvelous scenes, like the one where he rescues her with a card trick. And the pacing is such that there is no way you'll be able to stop watching once you've started. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/23 Full Review Tony S Cliche characters with familial korean gloss. Lighthearted mix of genres, where horror elements are a crutch for romantic development and conflict. Bland if cute romance that needlessly stretched out for spooks, where even ghost abilities and actions are inconsistent. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/21 Full Review Audience Member a little bit spooky despite starting off prestige-ously. not a bad show but definitely not the "romcom" it was classified to be. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member It loses some steam towards the end, but there's lots of laughs and plenty of charm. Definitely worth watching. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Yu-ri, who can sense ghosts, became an inspiration to a street magician Jo-gu's horror magic show. Jo-gu made a huge success with it and he gets closer to Yu-ri despite the threats of ghosts around her. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member ''Korkudan uyuyamaman?n ne kadar yorucu oldu?unu biliyor musun? Bundan sonra hiç m???l m???l uyuyamayaca??m. Ama sana ne olacak peki? Ben ?imdiden bu haldeysem sana ne olacak? Senin yaln?z oldu?unu dü?ünmektense arkamda bir hayaletin olmas?n? tercih ederim. Korku filmlerindeki kad?nlar için ne dedi?imi hat?rl?yor musun? A??k olmazlar. Çünkü film yaln?z olduklar?nda daha korkunç olur. Ama senden korkuldu?unu dü?ünmek. Kalbimi ac?t?yor. San?r?m sana a??k oldum bile."
