I really liked Gong Yoo in "Coffee Prince" and I liked Suzy in "Dream High" so this was a no brainer for me. I got into it pretty quickly and have had some big laughs. Gong Yoo is HILAR and his English is great.
I specifically like how we don't quite know if Seo Yoon Jae is a creep or not. We start off thinking he's a 2 timing jerk, but then we hear the story of how he 1st noticed and liked Gil Da Ran at the wedding. Episode 5 seems like we're going to go back to thinking he's a jerk.
**side note: I NEED the sunglasses he wore to the bank when he took out money for the house. They were amazing.

Hello and welcome to the board nicktock. Glad to have another person join the discussion.
I don't think Yoon Jae was cheating on Da Ran. I think that to make the Kyung Jae and Da Ran side of the story more compelling, they want you to think that he was cheating. I don't think Yoon Jae is the saint Da Ran believed him to be but I don't think he was a cheater either.
I don't give Kyung Joon any real shot with Da Ran. They just want viewers to question whether what Yoon Jae and Da Ran had was real. Otherwise, the ending is rather predictable. I'm sure we'll get more details about Yoon Jae that will make him look bad as the drama goes along. Yoon Jae clearly has a past with Se Young though. Some of that will have to be cleared up. My guess is it was over by the time he met Da Ran but Se Young hasn't moved on.
Kyung Joon seems to be related to Yoon Jae. He's probably his long lost half-brother. I believe that's what all the secrecy and hesitancy by Yoon Jae was about. Once everyone learns this and the misunderstanding is cleared up, they can all live happily ever after. That's how I believe the drama will play out.
The only question I have is, whether Yoon Jae will wake up and they'll swap back before the final episode or are they going to let things play out until the end?

bird11 Hi. Suzy played the female lead. She was the typical brat who eventually learned how to be a good person. She had some really funny moments when she was being rude though. Knov1 Hey. What you're saying makes sense. You're probably right that Yoon Jae wasn't cheating. It's probably all in Se Young's head. I also agree that Da Ran and Gyung Joon won't end up together --- I mean, this isn't quite as corny as Flower Boy Ramen Shop --- Haha. I bet there will be a part when Su Ji starts to like Yoon Jae/Gyung Joon and maybe almost kiss, and then Da Ran sees and makes a big hubbub. Since Se Young is -- and I hope she doesn't keep getting type cast b/c in What's Up she was a creep too -- the "evil one" in this drama we know she'll end up alone. I think she'll also be the one discover the book/card angel thing they transformed with and use it to her advantage. Something huge is prob going to happen around the time for the hospital party thing Yoon Jae's face is on the poster for. I think he will wake up and switch in time, b/c I will be pissed if we don't find out what Yoon Jae was going to tell Da Ran before he got all coma-ed. **Here goes my what ifs: What if Yoon Jae is Gyung Joon's father (I think he's probably not old enough to have an 18 yo, but if the season dramas director -and love rain- guy had directed it, then it would be possible) What if Yoon Jae wakes up in Gyung Joon's body. I'd like to see those 2 actors interact with each other playing the others' character. **sorry for the random ramblings!

Wow-- you watched Flower Boy Ramen shop, too? You are right it was corny, I was hoping it was going to be more like Coffee Prince. So far, I like this drama

nicktock: I hadn't thought about Se Young's role in all of this going forward. That's certainly a possibility. If Da Ran found out so quickly about Se Young's key, I bet either Se Young or Ma Ri will learn about the body swap before long too. It'll probably be Se Young. Like you said, I expect Ma Ri to develop feelings for Kyung Jae.

So I take it you guys are past episode 1, too? It will certainly put a twist on things if Ma Ri starts having feelings for Kyung Jae. When Da Ran stood outside of Se Young's apartment with the key it was really interesting to watch her debate what to do, her emotions were so divided. I liked that Kyung Jae figuired out what was going on and ran all the way over there to "rescue" her! Still have no clue on how the rest will figure out about the switch or how it will be "solved".....

So I take it you guys are past episode 1, too? Yes. I try to watch the episodes as soon as they're available. It helps with doing the summaries and avoiding spoilers.

Hello and welcome to the board hyroin. I watch it on Viki as well. I then use DramaFever as a cross reference for the summaries.
As it turns out, they're brothers but Kyung Joon was born through a surrogate. I still think Da Ran ends up with Yoon Jae but I think there's a chance for her and Kyung Joon if he remains as Kyung Jae.

I wouldn't have guessed that Ma Ri would have found out about the switch before Se Young.
I like the Kyung Joon / Da Ran romance, but I don't think it will last no matter what.
I think Yoon Jae's distance from Da Ran was because he was close to finding out about his brother if he hadn't done so before the switch. Se Young finally admitted he wasn't the jerk we thought he was.
I'm guessing he will switch back before the end, with Yoon Jae having to save Kyung Joon's life... even if it means sacrificing himself... especially if he finds out it happened when he was a child.

I think when Kyung Joon realizes that he and Yoon Jae are brothers, he'll back away. He'll help get Yoon Jae's illness treated and return to the US with Ma Ri.

I am up to episode 13 and things are moving along, I hate to admit I did not think that Kyung Joon and Yoon Jae were related! I really like the way the story is going along, except for the romance between Kyung Jae and Da Ran-- and it is ONLY because she is a student teacher and he is a student-- just doesnt feel "right", but other than that I think they get along great. maybe she should have had a differnt job.....Ma Ri is getting on my nerves, she seems to think that she comes first, it doesnt even seem that her relationship with Kyung Joon was as important to him as it is to her. I am still waiting to see what happens when they switch back-- who will end up with whom?
