 Like the previous episode this was a bit of a drop off from the first two shows but still an okay view though certainly not a must watch. Two biggest gripes from me are that there's not enough ghost fighting or hunting, those fighting scenes are usually the best in a show.
 Also wish they were a bit more serious like they were in the first two episodes, kind of turned too much into a teen show. Hasn't been a bad watch at all though, still much better than most J-dramas and will watch all the shows.
 No attempts from Kim this show to kiss Park, seems as though that's the only way to regain her memory. She did complain a lot towards the end of this show about not being able to remember anything about her human life but she's not doing a thing to try to regain those memories. This episode was really just about the ongoing lives of Kim and Park as she now lives with him in his apartment. Things are a bit up and down, for the first time we did see some hurtful comments from Park as he still can't understand why she's hanging around him, shouldn't ghosts be doing other things he told her and a few other hurtful barbs towards her.

 Those barbs started after Kim had entered a room which Park had told her was off limits. Kim had found a pair of shoes she wanted but Park entered the room just before she was about to try them on, he was furious for her going into the room and the air between the pair was quite frosty for a while, There is a big secret in that room which hasn't been revealed yet, all we know about Park's family is that his mother is dead and he hasn't talked with his father for years. Not sure who the shoes had belonged to, his mother or does/did he have a sister we don't know about.
 Just one ghost fighting episode this episode which was the worst one of them all through four episodes. The ghost was haunting a sauna, rumor around the neighborhood was that the place was haunted so the place had practically zero customers. The duo from the Ghostnet club enlisted Park to help them exorcise the ghost, they would give him $3,500 of the $5,000 they would get for the job.
 One other thing I don;t really care for in this drama are the duo from the Ghostnet club, think they're there for comic relief but they're anything but humorous. This show would be a bit better without them as they do take up way too much screen time. The trio was able to get rid of the ghost in the sauna, don't mean to say trio as Park did all of the work.

 Not even Kim could really help him fighting the ghost in what was the best segment of the show. Kim has been dead for five years, she is 22 but still occupies the body of a seventeen year old which was her age when she died. Kim had never drank before so at a restaurant she ended up guzzling quite a bit of soju. For the remainder of the show she was in a drunken, foolish state and couldn't help Park in his ghost fight nor could she even walk home which brought us to the end.
 It was a quick hour even though not as much happened or least nothing all that important. We still need to learn a bit more about Professor Joo, on the outside he's someone who everyone likes. The real Joo though is one evil guy, he had killed a cat during the show which was witnessed by a student in one of his classes. Besides the ending with Kim and Park there was also a minor with Joo as he tracked down the student who watched him murder the cat, looks like another killing is about to take place. Would be nice to learn more about his evil ways and really who or what he is.

 Had a few gripes about the series but all in all it's been an enjoyable watch For being just seventeen Kim So-Hyun is a fairly good actress, she really nailed that drunk scene and may have done it better than a 40 year old could. To me it seems as though she has quite a bright future and does have a solid amount of fans at such a young age, will also check out future dramas from her.
 Not sure how the posting for this show will continue, post like this one didn't take long so perhaps will do a recap for every episode. Think there's a total of 16 of them so really leaning towards posting about half of the remaining shows For instance the last three shows will definitely be posted about, perhaps then another trio of them such as episodes 8-10. We'll see how it works out, not that I don't enjoy posting about this drama but there's at least two others I'm posting about now so all of these recaps take away from doing other kinds of posts and ones that most prefer to view.

Korean drama "Bring it on Ghost" episode three recap and screenshots

 This series also goes by the name of "Let's Fight Ghost", if you look this show up either way you'll get the same results.

 Start Date: July 11, 2016.... airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 11:00 pm pm tvN

 Ratings after the first four episodes averaged a tad over 4%. That may not seem like a high number, it sin't, but tvN is a cable network and for them that's a solid rating. Plus it does air at 11:00 pm, wonder how many teens stay up for this show.
 Bring up that teen aspect because the first two shows were more on the serious side though a bit lighthearted at times. This episode seemed as though it was geared more for teens, wasn't a a bad watch but a drop off from the first two shows because of that. Wouldn't call it a teen angst show but too much of this episode revolved around Kim wanting more teen things such has a new dress and going out to eat, what she wants she deserves to get!

 Kim still hasn't regained her memories of who she is or how she died. At the conclusion of episode two her and Park were about to kiss again, when it happened the first time she had a brief flashback of when she was alive. This time nothing happened, no memories at all of her former life. Don't know if it's the case but when they kissed the first time it was by accident, thinking that perhaps for a kiss to work it has to be by accident or Kim need to initiate the kiss which Park did this time.
 Another idea that was suggested to Kim was that she spend more time around Park, no clue how that would bring back her memories but she did try that. She told Park she wanted to study for the SAT's, he wondered like the rest of us how could a ghost take the test or go to college. Kim thought that perhaps not taking the tests is why she was still on the Earth, that could be one of the things she has to do before she moves on to wherever ghosts move on to.
 After that Kim moved in with Park, to me things like that are what brought down this episode a bit. For instance why does a ghost need to eat or sleep? And being a ghost wouldn't it be easy for Kim just to walk onto a store or restaurant and take whatever she wants? Would help the show out more if Kim started to act a bit more 'ghostly' and start doing odd or eerie things.
 For the most part this episode concentrated on the two of them trying to adapt to each other, think Park is starting to fall for Kim a bit though he won't admit it. Kim's move in hasn't gone too smoothly either as the Monk who lives with Park off and on moved back for a few days. Kim really wanted to eat real food but couldn't as the Monk ate everything she was prepared to eat, she's not allowed to show herself in front of him as he also can see ghosts.

 There was only about five minutes of ghost fighting in this show, first two shows had much more action which would have helped. What really would have helped was to expand the story of the ghost they fought in this episode. The ghost was an actress who had just committed suicide due to so many haters writing bad things about her on the internet.
 After her death she killed one of those people who had written about her, now she was on to another one of her haters who happened to be a member of the college's Ghostnet club. This is where Kim and Park jump into action, so far neither one seems capable of defeating a ghost by themselves but as a team they work well and once again they were able to bring the ghost down. After being beaten the ghost died strangely but somehow burning up, so far all of the ghost's deaths have been different.
 One last thing isn't really something that took place but hope it will soon. It has to do with Professor Joo who we only briefly saw this episode. He has a deep and possibly evil secret and am curious to what it is and how it may affect Kim but think his evilness will effect Park more.

 So-so episode, worth a watch if you've started the series but wish they would go back to being a bit more serious in this show and have a bit more ghost hunting/fighting. If you've been reading my other drama reviews then you know I'm also watching the 'W" series. Bring that up because the medical school in that show is called Myungsei University, college in this show also is called that. Don't know why as the dramas are on different networks though one actor, Choi Chun-Sang, has a role in each of the shows.
 Even though the show has slipped a bit will still continue watching the entire series, every drama always has at least one or two episodes like this and it's hard not to when a series lasts for 16-20 episodes. Episodes five and six have aired already this week but still need to watch the fourth show, will be back in a few days with a recap of that and let's hope this so-so episode was just a blip.
