The drama was pretty decent. But as usual with dramas that are given extensions (2eps)- the last few episodes get somewhat wonky. I watched this for Shin Hyunjoon, and I was excited for a romcom. Towards the middle, the laughs get fewer and the feels get bigger, maybe even too big. Having just completed it, I feel a little confused about certain elements. But after a few days it'll be fine I'm sure. So while lots of people are upset right now, with time it'll calm. The leads are great actors, and when they soul-switched -some thought Kim Jungeun was "over the top," but hello they switched souls -it's supposed to be over the top and funny. There was laughs, crys, feels, anger, shock, hope, and cameos galore. It was also nice to not hate the second leads. The downside, elements seemed to be contrived for the extension (but its dramaland- everything's contrived anyway), and so the last episodes seemed hasty or rushed. By ep14 I thought I finally knew where the drama was going, I was wrong. And while being surprised is generally a good thing, this drama would've been better sticking to the plan.
Overall, the drama had 2 great leads, some big laughs, and some big feels. The storyline goes a little awry towards the ending.

I wonder how many reviewers want to change their scores now that the pathetic ending has been shown? The writing was on the wall for me when they extended the drama. I realize that the writer knew that they made Goo Soo Nam so hated that there were going to be very few viewers on his side and also they made Hyun Woo oppa so perfect that no one would understand the logic of Yeo Ok's decision. Well, guess what? I don't understand it! I could forgive (not forget) the affair, but his overall attitude and feelings before his supposed change? No way. The acting was good, story was crap! Watch at your own peril as I could never consciously recommend this to ANYONE! TEAM OPPA 4EVA!!

This drama started out so perfect and it became better and better and then everything just fell apart. I had such a high hopes and got disappointed. The acting was fantastic Shin HyunJoon gets all the awards for his feminine acting. There was only 2 characters worth hating and thats Soo Nam's mother and JinGoo the manager. The producers made all the characters so lovable that even if they did something wrong, you sympathize with them. Definitely one of the most realistic dramas ive seen however, them extending the show with 2 eps ruined everything. I stopped watching it at ep 14 just so my feelings wouldnt get destroyed. Its a great drama just don't finish all the episodes and you'll be happy.

One of the series I loved and I 'm gonna rewatch it. I am into type of series where the protagonists change bodies especially if it's between man and woman. Because it has hilarious moments. If you like that kind of series I reccomend it 100%.
Story: A typicall story about a couple getting a divorce under certain circumstances or you could say the number one reason why couples getting divorces. The way the plot is advancing normally at some point and when you believe that's all over, it's changes suddenly and take a turn that you didn't expecting.
Acting:The actors that played where very good. Especially when they had changed bodies. In every series is the stupid with the ambitions goals, doing whataever it takes to accomplish it. Of course these people they seem stupid of the way they're acting.
I would rewatch it again and again because of the funny and drama moments. It's a good show to pass your free time and laugh.

This review may contain spoilers
Before the last episode, I was going to give it a 9/10. Up until then I was really hooked, waiting every monday and tuesday night for the next episode so I could avoid having withdrawals. But then it got to the last episode. If I were you, I would just watch episode 1-17 then make up your own ending. It's probably better than watching this ending.

Spoiler alert, this is a drama that basically promotes cheating on your wife. I cannot believe the writers decided to make her go back to that devil she called an ex husband. It was really heading in the direction of the other guy, but no, in Korean dramas the bad guy always gets the girl.

The first 17 were great.

Last one dropped my score for the drama by a lot.

The plot for this drama kinda reminds me of a graph in which the curve increases until it reaches its peak, then dramatically drops... and I mean the peak is at the early stage of the drama so numerous episodes were just plainly boring!! I really enjoyed the first episodes and thought it's going to be an amazing drama but really....I don't advice to watch it if you want to avoid major disappointment

Apart from the plot, I thought that the actors/actresses did a pretty good job with portraying the characters. I also think that some of these characters were really the only wants that made me watch the whole drama. In addition, some of the coupling was quite good/cute (don't wanna spoil which one^^)

If you're looking to laugh till you tear, then you've come to the right place. This Drama centers around this couple who are just about to get a divorce. . but they switch bodies because they have to stay together. The funny thing is that they're trying to adjust being in different bodies. I like this drama because it made me laugh A LOT. I recommend you watch this.

Story
I like the start it’s fast paced I don’t have to wait for so long, This Drama is very unique, even though the idea is repeated, this was made for an amazing reason, I'm watching it and you can see how it make wives think how to improve their relation with their husbands & how husbands can help their wives and better understand each other, it's a very fun way of giving advice.
The story going is very funny and hilarious as they try to adapt being the in other person's body, what I loved best about it is the way the wife talk and her expression and the husband’s reactions, very funny, I haven't laughed -held my laugh- like this for so long, for comedy drama fans this is a must watch.
Recommended to every married couple

Acting
The actors are so good, all of the actors match their roles so much especially the 4 leads, the 2 leads act as if they're being possessed is so hilarious.

Music
I really like the music fun when it's fun & dramatic when sad good.

Mediocre body swap show

More body swap content, more logging from me! Always been a fan.

Yeah this just stalls at some point. Stops dead in its tracks, going nowhere. No momentum...

Really unfortunate because it started out quite fun and the lead actress has got it, and I'm always up for some body swap content, especially when it lasts longer. But as usual in these the male lead is toxic, even more so than usual this time as he's also a cheater (not a spoiler, the show basically opens on that).

Then the story becomes needlessly convoluted and the side characters are average.

Watch Secret Garden instead.

So far the drama has been good and awesome and funny as hell. The main guy has cried so much i thing it;s more than i have in my life time. The story line is just okay. The ending??? just not hoping for the best so far. I would recommend this cos it's really funny. I didn't expect the comedic level at all. It's so good i got my sister to start watching it with me and she doesn't do k dramas.

So, if you are going to watch this drama i'd suggest you stop at episode 13 or 14 just for the comedy and the fun parts because after that you'd be pissed.
