Little Tomatillo

The irony of you talking about tissue paper thin skin when you literally ran to edit your comment after getting a polite reply is hilarious. Talk about projection.

Even in your first and original comment before, you aggressively claimed the poster didn't imply this, only to immediately contradict yourself in the next sentence by admitting the network was promoting like it does to sell to overseas markets that like romance.

So you literally admitted yourself that the marketing was faking a romance vibe to trick viewers.

Whether it was cropped or not,see for yourself,

, a woman pulling a man closer by his tie is the textbook trope for an office romance promo. It doesn't communicate a father daughter body swap.

You realized your logic made no sense, had no actual counter argument and now try to hide behind emojis and chuldish insults. Enjoy your internet rage.

I was looking for that answer because the poster genuinely gave me that impression.

Going into the drama blind, all I knew was that it involved an older man and a younger man swapping souls. I didn't know anything else about the story.
Then I saw the poster. The female lead is holding the male lead's tie, they're standing very close together, and both of them are looking straight at the camera with intense expressions. The entire composition puts the focus on the two of them as a pair.

That's a very common office-romance or enemies-to-lovers promo. If someone showed me that poster without any plot summary, my first thought would be "office romance," not "father-daughter relationship complicated by a body swap."

So when I realized the young man has the soul of her father, I wondered if I had misunderstood something and came to this comment section.

I don't follow interviews, production news, or statements from directors, writers, or cast members before watching a K drama. I simply watch the show and form expectations based on the promotional material that is presented to viewers.

Also, saying "the poster didn't imply this, YOU perceived it that way" feels hostile. I was looking for that answer because the poster genuinely gave me that impression. I didn't know anything else about the story. Viewers can only interpret what is actually shown to them, and this poster uses a pose of the both that says enemies-to-lovers.

I was looking for this answer. Because the poster implied this. So I was like, no way because he is in another body but in reality he is her father.
Or, she is not blood related because the daughter of the second wife and another man. Still weird.

Please, follow them on their social media for support. And try to watch this show if you can. Thank you.

This show is getting better and better.

His dancing is awesome, but also a good actor.

I agree. We are so used to see well of Thai students, that this puts everything in perspective.

I was finally able to finish this show today. During airing I had enough after episode 7. But yes. Asami finally told him about his feelings to be in a movie where he basically will play his father. And than Shirasaki lashed out. I still don't know why and also why Asami will eventually play in that movie that os based on his fathers book.

That is the timing of the show they played in. That aired at 1.00 at night.

I forgot to mention something important. I will ad that.

I comment as a spoiler.

I was also a bit confused so I watched that scene twice.

Mu Hee had cold feet and wanted to be the nice one, to not stand in the way of the love between Ho Jin and Si Jeon. She thinks that Ho Jin is still in love with Si Jeon and wants to be selfless and "help" him.

But for Ho Jin this felt like a slap in the face. He thought he had made his true feelings for Mu hee clear by being nice to her and help her and stuff.

And by her telling this, and also saying that she wants not to stand in the way of real love. That what he thought what they had was real, is now by her telling this, that what they had was not real, but fake, a joke.

He feels hurt, because he is sincere in his feelings for her. By her making this decision, she does a one sided decision that for both of them. Under the disguise of "for his sake"
But actually Mu Hee running away from him is her way of distancing and not getting hurt by Ho Jin.

The title of this show is not only about him as a translator. But actually, although they both speak Korean. If they can understand each other. This scene is their miscommunication.

She does not understand why he is mad at her, isn't she the one sacrificing? And that he was only nice to her out of pity? While he thought his kindness was showing how much he cared for her.
The last line about crossing the street finally hits home. This was Ho Jin telling her that he would have done that for her. That is the moment she messed up and that he had genuine feelings for her. But rejected her now because of what she said.

I also have to mention the problematic upbringing and family of Ho Jin. His brother is his half brother his father had with another woman. And that woman seemed also a part of the "family". All very strange arrangements. And his parents divorced. For him, a commitment is not some casual thing. When he is in love, he is sincere but he has to think about it. He needs to be certain. He was at that point certain. He talked with Si Jeon and that made everything more clear for him. He was in love with Mu Hee. But she threw that in his face.

One of the very few series I could watch the last year that I could watch from start to finish in no time.

It was great. The story, acting, visuals, setting. Canada and Italy also showed up as a stunning location. This show must have costed a fortune. But it was worth it.

To low.

It is not a masterpiece. But it is actually enjoyable and the merman action under water is definitely high quality. The actors had like one year of training to pull that off. Nosebleeds and all.

Imo, Fan Xiao was homophobic at that point.

If i remember correct, the local university, he had found out, had a very good faculty in what he was planning to do, I only can remember that he met a old professor from i think Penn state

Just saw this. https://x.com/i/status/1999335656557019283

Only Chinese subs. But that was adorable! Daniel and Michelle sure know how to act love.

This was also mindboggling to me. She had found work in New York. Or was that also a lie? I guess the prospect of her new career seemed better than to live 2 years in the US. She said that he should broaden his world while he did not want to. But she has not broadened her world. It was a shitty thing to do.

I see what you mean. I also was not fond of that. But he worships the ground she walks on.
