iOS 8 UISearchController's searchBar overlapping tableVIew

I've making practises to use iOS 8 new features - UISearchController to display my tableView and result. But something strange happened. It seems like the searchBar is transparent.

Yes, the searchBar is overlapping with the tableView. I've search a lot in SO, but no help.

enter image description here

My implementation in viewDidLoad

self.myTableView = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds style:UITableViewStylePlain];
_myTableView.delegate = self;
_myTableView.dataSource = self;
[self.view addSubview:_myTableView];

self.mySearchController = [[UISearchController alloc] initWithSearchResultsController:nil];
_mySearchController.searchResultsUpdater = self;
_mySearchController.dimsBackgroundDuringPresentation = NO;
_mySearchController.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
_mySearchController.hidesNavigationBarDuringPresentation = YES;
_mySearchController.searchBar.searchBarStyle = UISearchBarStyleMinimal;
[_mySearchController.searchBar sizeToFit];

self.myTableView.tableHeaderView = self.mySearchController.searchBar;

Did I miss something important?

It's because you've set _mySearchController.searchBar.searchBarStyle = UISearchBarStyleMinimal. According to Apple's documentation:

UISearchBarStyleMinimal - The search bar has no background, and the search field is translucent.

Try deleting that line of code or setting it to UISearchBarStyleDefault instead.
