To love someone for their appearance, or to love them for what's on the inside. Switched is the story that follows the lives of four teenagers who face something they'd never thought possible.
To me, I personally enjoyed the storyline of Switched beyond what I thought. When I first saw the preview of the drama, I was immediately interested on how they story would progress from the switch. The switch I'm referring to is the one between Umine and Ayumi. To Umine, Ayumi has everything that she's ever wanted to have, the perfect life in her eyes. With that in mind, she comes up with the plan to switch bodies with Ayumi, and she succeeds. The storyline follows Umine as she lives in Ayumi's body and how Ayumi adjusts to the sudden change in her life from the switch. This is the part where you add the high school love interest, or shall I say interests. Kaga and Koushirou are Ayumi's friends yet it's Umine in her body now. All throughout the story, you empathize with all four of the main characters in some way. The reason why the storyline of Switched connected with me so much is because I feel like at one point in your life, you do wish to be someone else. However, the story shows that the inside does matter, even taking appearances in. It depicts this beautiful story that connects the characters in a way they'd never thought possible. I do think it's truly one of the most eye opening dramas I've watched in a while in terms of the moral of the story. The outside doesn't always matter as long as you're still you.
(I really wanna say more but I don't think spoiling the entire plot is fair. Therefore, check it out.)
The acting is beyond amazing in this drama. I didn't really have any expectations on the quality of the acting but it truly knocked me off of my feet. Imagine playing two completely different characters or portraying a whole different personality. I really must applaud the two main girls of the story, Kiyohara Kaya and Tomita Miu. I think it's only appropriate to compliment their male counterparts for a well-done performance also as I was also a victim to the charming Kamiyama Tomohiro and Shigeoka Daiki. They all are beyond amazing in Switched and I couldn't be more impressed with their acting.
I usually don't have much to say for music and this drama isn't much different. It has a catchy opening song that I found myself humming to often times but it's also not the worst music in my opinion. Of course, my taste in music varies from yours so I do suggest you give it a listen.
As always, I highly suggest that you deduct your own opinions by watching this drama yourself. I will say that it's pretty dang good as far as dramas go and it's surely worth rewatching. The actors/actresses, the storyline, and the overall tone and moral of Switched is what makes you fall in love with it, inside and out. Again, this is based off of my opinions from watching the drama and not everyone will like it as much as me, but you'll never know until you watch it.
This has been Switched.
