Do not be fooled by the title or the genre, this is not a horror movie
You can enjoy a different kind of portrayal of the lead characters and there is no annoying romance angle which throws off the audience. The movie is always engaging and is a visual treat for Don Lee fans
There are some scenes which make you feel like watching "A Korean Odyssey". Yet, the movie is overall fresh and involves the satisfaction of many fantasises when a normal person would be in desperate situations
Do not worry about the Don Lee's character, he is not a police or a thug mindlessly beating up people for his fans. He slips and falls, even does not fight for a long time and needs a lot of help. This includes very funny scenes that you could have already seen in YouTube
There are melodramatic twists in the end just like many Korean movies, but this will be a relief rather than a burn. The character growth is non-linear and satisfying. The movie might drag on for those not used to drama.

One of the best ghost comedy/action films from S. Korea!
Simple but Effective
Soul-Mate is a simple but effective movie told quite quickly with maximum emotional punch. The story didn't feel rushed but it was a relatively short movie. Despite its simple story, I definitely enjoyed this, mostly because the acting was really well done all around. Definitely a bit of a tear-jerk-er!

The story was just okay. You probably could guess it 60% right or even more. Watched this for Ma Dong-seok. He is so fun ;D
