This show is really good and I loved it. I didn't know it was Korean until I checked the audio thing on Netflix, but it was still spectacular. You should watch it. I loved the character design and their voices. I wish there were more episodes because I was really intrigued by this show. Plus the boy with black hair and the vampire boy were cute. (I'm not saying their names because I don't remember names that well) I hope you guys will watch it. I think you will like it. It was also really funny and sad sometimes. Ok Bye!

It's been a little while since I watched this series, so I might be a little vague on the details, but I found this to be a nice show. I definitely recommend it. Nothing world changing, but worth watching for an amusing afternoon or two. (Yes, this series is 24 episodes long. Yes, I might have basically watched it continuously.) The series revolves around two siblings, older sister Ha-ri and younger brother Doo-ri. They and their parents live in Shinbi Apartments, a building rumoured to be haunted. Of course, the rumours are true. Not only are there several ghostswho refuse to move on, the building is also home to a goblin, who is also called Shinbi. (He's oddly cute for a goblin, in a stuffed animal sort of way.) Shinbi draws energy from the people who live in the building, and he won't be able to survive if the ghosts scare everyone away. So when Ha-ri and Doo-ri meet him, he offers them a deal: get rid of a ghost and he'll grant one wish. The two agree. From there, the story takes off in standard monster-of-the-week format, but gradually develops an over-arching plot that builds on the surprisingly deep emotions expressed by the guest cast. As in so many shows, some of the guest cast joins the main cast, bringing their hidden problems with them. Which, long story short, least to near catastrophe for the characters, and the city. The characters were by far my favourite thing about this show. There was real character depth and growth throughout the series. And not just from the main siblings. Like I said, the guest characters are pivotal to the episodes. The one major complaint I have about this show was with the first and last episodes. The first one began in media res. Everything I recapped above, the basic plot, is told in a recap in about one minute. I think this was a missed opportunity for character development. The series could have benefited from that recap being its own episode. I had a similar problem with the finale. It basically cut from the climactic last battle to "well that's over and everything's pretty much back to normal." I think a longer plot resolution would have tied things together better. For the record, there were no loose ends, but a few more sentences confirming that and elaborating on it would have been greatly appreciated. All and all, I found this to be a really enjoyable show, and definitely recommend it.
