Honestly, I entered this drama with caution and not having high expectations because I have been burned from high rated and/or highly acclaimed dramas before! And unfortunately, I got burned again!
There were a few moments when the show was good, mainly the body swap episodes (those were hilarious and the acting from both parties was on point) and some that were great (when we find out what happened to the ML) but most of the times the story falls flat and drags on.
I mean this is not a bad drama it is just boring for the most part. The two main actors are brilliant in their roles, but something did not click for me. Also some times I found their chemistry lacking.
My main issues with the show are:
1. The show could have done with at least 5 less episodes because from some point on the story just dragged on. At least 2-3 episodes could have been merged into 1. Also, each episode lasted an hour but sometimes it felt like 3 which is never o good feeling to have when watching a drama! The show started of good, then got real boring in the middle(episode 11 onwards), then picked up again towards the end(episodes 16-17) and then meh…
2. Why did the FL fall for the ML, is it because he is Hyun Bin, because other than that he has nothing else going for him. He is a jerk, a stalker, obsessive and borderline rapey at times, that kind off redeems his self only towards the end and then with the whole amnesia thing reverts back to his annoying self, and for some reason the FL finds it charming and likes it? . I mean yes he likes the FL and he (sometimes) is good to her, but not all the time and he is a jerk and rude to everyone else..
I think the only reason the ML was likable at times is because the FL made him one when they switched bodies.
3. When did the FM lead fall for the ML. I mean we know that for the ML it was Instant love, and although not fan of this trope, we knew when he started to like/obsess over her, but when it come to the FL I never really understood when it happened. One moment she couldn’t stand him and the next she was in love?? It didn’t make any sense to me. There was more development between the FM and Oska relationship, that for me it would have made more sense if they were end game or even her and the Director.
