The movie is about a man obsessed by four ghosts.These four ghosts refused to leave him alone until this poor guy help the ghosts to do what they didn't make it when they were alive.Yes, like all Korean movies, it's also a love story.Yes, this is such a cliché and I was about to give this movie 6 out of 10.Yes, just everyone said. There came the ending ....... The best ending I haven't seen for a very long time. I loved it and I cried.I guess the story was too plain so I ignored all the clues this movie has been telling the audiences. There are so many clues in this movie. I hate myself was too arrogant to think "ahh, another stupid movie. He helped the ghosts and the ghosts will help him." I was wrong.

Well, perhaps my review doesn't help at all, because do much grammatically error English. But I just try to share my feelings when I watched this movie.Actually I don't like Korean movie. I got this one from my ex, he said this movie is good, then I tried to watch it.First time I saw this, so funny. Shang-Man didn't have any spirit anymore to life and met with some ghosts. At that time I can't guess the plot. Got confuse. "What else for next?"I dare you to watch it and you'll curious to watch it until the end.And this movie so unpredictable. Espessially in the ending. Really, I'm crying. The humor so funny although Im Indonesian.

This is a heartfelt ghost comedy that I actually enjoyed watching. By the start of it thought it felt like a silly ghost movie that is extremely predictable and shallow. And I also don't really like the actor Cha Tae-Hyun because he just comes of just plain ignorant for no reason or play very obnoxious, whinny and annoying roles without being entertaining or funny. But I have to give him credit for this role he was in, he played his role in this very well. I thought I was going to hate his acting and his character once again but that just wasn't the case for this one. As the movie progresses it get better, especially after the first half and his character starts to get likable. In a way it sort of reminded me of "Heart and Souls". So the story is this, some dude who was raised as a orphan grows up and hates his life and tries to commit suicide multiple times. But somehow he survives and 4 ghost comes and ask him to complete there favor or else they will not leave him alone. And than he falls for a live girl. Yeah this premise has been done many times, but this movie adds good heartfelt and warm moments that make it stand out. And those elements are mixed into this really well. To the point by the end I could help but have a grin on my face. Overall this movie is a good way to pass the time and for a overdone premise it adds something new. Although I am not a fan of remakes, it isn't a big surprise that at the 2011 Berlin Film Market, remake rights were purchased by filmmaker Chris Columbus.7.6/10

What a surprise ending! Fantastic! Whoever makes this into an English language film had better protect it against too much overt corn along the way. It must have real dignity and integrity as a film! Good luck to all concerned! This could be an enormous success for English language audiences if the people who do the adaptation don't give into sappiness. I would kill to get the job of adapting it. I'd love to write AND direct. I know just who to cast and who to hire for the DP. I'm in love with this picture--the idea and it's potential for American markets and English language audiences around the world. Boy oh boy, what a find! All the best!
