    This drama started off so well. The cast was good and Gong Yoo was great at trying to act like a 18/19 year old while in a 30 year old body.
    But after a while the drama started to drag on. I dealt with it because it wasn't as bad as other dramas and continued to watch. And after a few episodes the cliffhangers started to repeat themselves and were very predictable.

    The ending...oh god i don't know where to begin. This drama had the potential of having a very good ending, but obviously the Hong sisters didn't know what they were doing and I have never seen an ending so bad. i had big hopes for this drama and was let down big time.

    URRRRGGGGHHH, this drama. I watched it while it was airing and never got round to writing a review. But I thought now would be a good time to add another rant to the pile and explain why you shouldn't watch this drama.

    There are two things that are so wrong with this drama:
    1. It totally sucks after about episode 10 when it just gets so repetitive.
    2.Before body switch Kang Kyung Joon and after body switch Kang Kyung Joon are NOTHING alike. Which defeats the point of having a body switch storyline. Grrrrrrrrr.

    The first two episodes of this were brilliant, I loved them. Shin Won Ho was brilliant, despite being a newcomer. I will deffo check out some of his other work because he's     read more

    I LOVE this drama! It's one of my favourite dramas out there. They had AWESOME soundtracks, the ending could have been better, but still! I don't get why it has bad reviews....It has hilarious parts, sad parts (not that much though), and very amusing and unexpected (not in a bad, boring way) parts. It was very original, that's why I like it ^^ pluuuss...It has Gong Woo and Bae Suzy in it ^^.

    i really liked this drama and i think it's worth watching. the cast was amazing and some scenes were very funny. it's just the ending which was a bit off. so don't be bothered by negative comments and give it a try yourself. :)

    I had a lot of mixed feelings for this drama. There were good parts as well as bad ones. Awesome soundtrack! Overall, was I disappointed that I watched it, no. I enjoyed it more than I hated it since the chemistry between the main leads made it all worth it.

    I actually loved this drama, until the end that is. I didn't think it dragged at all. The end however was completely confusing. I think they definitely should have had them change back earlier on so they could have wrapped up the plot holes. I think it ended the way it did because the it would look weird for Da Ran to be with kyung joon because the actor that played him looked so young. I think it could have worked if they had cast an older looking actor.

    Love the actors but it was a slow death for me to finish the drama how did something so good go so downhill :P
  • lexies Jan 22, 2013
    Continuation from my previous post:
    And it seamed like she was going to do what he asked her to do, to hold onto him first and even if he whines and throws fits to endure him and don't let him go.
    So it's a happy ending.
  • lexies Jan 22, 2013
    I thought it would be a lot worse when I first saw the reviews.

    For the people who didn't understood the end, here is the explanation:
    In that one year Kang Kyung Joon grew up.
    It's a bit confusing here because they keep mixing past with present but you can see the difference because it's raining in the present. And they never once showed how Kang Kyung Joon looks like in the present just his back (still played by Gong Yoo but they are brothers so they should look alike). They obviously didn't want to find another actor for that part and they didn't want to use Shin Won Ho because he looks too young.
    Kang Kyung Joon doesn't remember anything about the body switch.
    They accidentally (or not?) met again on the bus. She took again his umbrella and their first meeting scene repeated but this time Gil Da Ran remembered what Kyung Joon told her to do when they meet again.
    • Adhithi Feb 13, 2013
      but they met just after a year.. Kan yung Joon is still 20 year old in present.. I don't think there will be much difference growing from a 19 year old to 20 .. at least not that much as your theory says..
    • lexies Feb 13, 2013
      I agree with you, but it seams like writers wanted to bend the logic. The reason for that is probably because screenwriters (or somebody else) thought since they've developed romance with Gil Da Ran and Kyung Joon in Yoon Jae's body it would look strange to see Shin Won Ho as Kyung Joon with Da Ran.
    • Adhithi Feb 17, 2013
      yeah agree.. may be I didn't like the storyline from the beginning and thats why I am not able to be convinced with this drama:P. I think any kind of ending would have been disappointing for me as ultimately, she got to love this other guy and not Gong yoo. (No matter how they showed in climax, we all know who she ended up with.)Anyways thats just me as I watched it only for Gong yoo. ;)
  • lantis Jan 9, 2013
    i love gong yoo ! i watched this drama just for him and his great acting skills didn't dissapoint me, the story was good too, but the ending was just ridiculous...still it is a good romantic comedy if you ask me, worths watching.
