Story

Dong Joo works at a funeral parlor, where she discovers that she has the ability to talk to the dead in order to grant them their wishes, or else a series of misfortunes will follow. And, by luck, she keeps running into the guy who was hired by her boyfriend to break up with her.

Korean Drama May I Help You is a romantic comedy with a fantasy twist.

And even though the ghost stories are interesting and heartwarming, the main romance is boring.

The drama uses a lot of trops to support its love story, which didn’t play in its favor. Thus, the drama got predictable and cringy.

The mystery of the ghost child was okay at first, furthermore, however, it got repetitive and overused. Thus, the drama, which supported the whole second half on that case, often got tiring to watch.

Also, the whole melodrama surrounding the stories of the characters turned them into self-proclaimed victims.

The drama had a messy pace and they handled their timelines horribly, confusing the story.
