    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

      Lol... Same. I don't understand what happened to Yoon Jae, why KKJ in his body and why he still remembers Gil Da Ran... Eh.
      I was watching I do I do and Big at the same time, at first, I thought that Big had waay better storyline and all, but now... After I saw both dramas endings, this one I'll rate the same as I do I do or even lower . Q_Q
    • changminnion Jul 28, 2012
      Wait I Do, I Do had a dissapointing ending? Asssaa!
    • Alice_In_Wonderland Jul 28, 2012
      Nuh-uh. *shakes head*. It has waay better ending than this one. I mean, I liked this drama (Big) storyline better than I do, I do, 'cause at least to me it was just a simple romance/comedy drama about one night stand and its consequences, but if we need to compare the endings of these dramas, I do, I do has a better one. :c
    • changminnion Jul 28, 2012
      I get your point. Hmm.. Interesting. :D
  • Blueoblivionx Jul 26, 2012
    The ending feels like a bad joke... I'm trying to just pretend it never happened. I already predicted this would happen like 2 pages of comments ago so I'm not surprised. I was just trying to be optimistic -_- Asian dramas, why you always break my heart?

    can anyone tell me what happened to Seo Yoon Jae? and what is KKJ stull doing in Gong Yoo's body? Am confused! @_@
    • Lovegood Jul 26, 2012
      uh... same here... super confused too... :(
    • Natalie91 Jul 26, 2012
      me too 0.o ...what happend?
    • Jeaniessi Jul 28, 2012
      Shyeah...That is the million dollar question isn't it?! What the hell happened to Yoon Jae? Why did we not see KKJ in his rightful body? Answer...Because the Hong Sisters think their audience is stupid and can't handle a younger man with an older woman. (let's not mention all the dramas that have come before that have had this same exact story line ...Noona / Younger man... and have pulled it off wonderfully...I could list about five.) I am still bitter we got no resolution. No TRUE resolution for their love story, for the brothers, for Yoon Jae himself. Seems like the only characters that got even a glimmer...just a glimmer of a true happy ending were Choong Sik and Ma Ri and even that was slight. I'm still bitter. I need to go watch Bridal Mask and inject some quality into my drama watching soul.

    • Natalie91 Jul 29, 2012
      i kinda think that they didn't show him in his real body because he looks realy young,he has like baby face...in flower boy ramyun shop it was okey because the actor was Jung Il woo who looks older,so it wasn't weird or anything...they just needed to find an actor who looks a lil bit older even though the character has 19 years o.O
  • sakurasomething Jul 25, 2012
    just came back from finishing it ! Wow i have no idea if i like how it ended.... But i love the cast that's for sure! Gong Yoo and Lee Ming Yung! Looks like they had a lot of fun filming it! :D

    At around episode 13 or 14, me and my friend both found it to be really dragging on. I stopped halfway through episode 14, but my friend watched the ending and hated it.
    To be honest, the only character I genuinely liked was Choongsik

    Fast-forwarded through the majority of the drama. It was so promising...they could have done so much more with the storyline -_-

    Nice Ending for Gil Da Ran and Kang Kyung Joon :)))) But somewhat I felt misleading in the final episode compared to episodes 1-15 that I really enjoyed and make laugh and cried all the time I been watched BIG ... :( I want to know what will happen to Seo Yoon Jae but no answers to my question :(((
  • Klove__ Jul 25, 2012
    The only thing I hated about this drama was the ending...I had high hopes to see Shin at the end since he practically married his bed in this whole drama.
