What I enjoyed the most about it is that - FOR ONCE - even though one of the main characters starts overweight, the moral of the story is NOT that "skinny = happiness". The moral of the story is that your physical appearance alone doesn't define you.
Of course, your outward appearance matters, since it's the first feature people can see and judge, but who you are as a person is just as important. You're not any less worthy of living/being successful because your physical appearance doesn't match society's expectations. You shouldn't have to change your physical appearance for others.
It's really nice to see this kind of moral, especially in a Kdrama (even tho The Miracle is only a web drama per se).
Unfortunately, that point alone is not enough to disregard completely the flaws of this drama.
Mainly the main romance. It was too hasty, too shallow, too cliché. Even if it was cute, it fell flat. For a seemingly romance-focused drama, it's a bit unsatisfactory to say the least. Also the story had a lot of potential, but due to its short format, most of it was cut short.
The acting was also not outstanding, but I did nonetheless really much enjoy the performance of the two sisters, as well as the one Yang Hak Jin gave. Their acting had a kind of "rough authenticity" feel to it, which i personally liked.
As for the soundtrack, the songs are pleasing to the ear, but even so nothing memorable.
Overall, The Miracle is refreshing, sweet, full of positivity...and short; you can basically view those 12 episodes in about 3 hours. So if you're looking for an uplifter, and don't mind turning a blind eye on apparent flaws, look no further.

There's nothing unique about this. Its story has been brought to life many times and it suffers from classic kdrama tropes. However, you'll barely notice at only 15 minutes per episode. The cast is ok, I didn't exactly come prepared with high expectations but they're not awful. They're on par with most idol-led dramas like Dream High or Monstar. The music of course shines and a couple of different tracks are featured.
Overall I'd say go ahead and watch The Miracle! You'll only lose a few hours of your day and it is a nice break from other longer and more serious dramas.

the story was well plotted and acted for a plot that only had a few epiodes frankly to be honest the only thing that i didn't like about it was the fact that it had only 12 episodes which gave me dram fever as to it was very interesting.
the story was just the usual kwon shi yeon is an overweighted teen who is bullied because of her weight and envies her sister kwon si ah who is a member of girl group miracle girls and is known for her for her beauty and her, when shi yeon comes upon a mysterious tarot and gets a wish and she wish for shi ahs body
OK THAT ENOUGH SPIOLERS
kwon shi yeon played by hong yoon hwa was ell fit for the role as she was well not to offend her but she was fat enough for the role and had the charisma but kwon shi ah's (kim na hyun) atitude was best fit for shi yeons visual so if the really switched bodies forever there might be a benefit shi yeon can lose weigh because shi ah goes on diet's alot and shi ah can have a better vioce and not be tone deaf

How could twin sisters be such polar opposites? Kwon Shi Ah is the beautiful sister, gorgeous in every way and a member of the popular girl group known as Miracle Girls. Since she was in preschool, Shia has worked as a model and then a teen actress before becoming an idol. Her fraternal twin sister, Shi Yeon, is almost double the body size of Shi Ah and has always been ridiculed and bullied in school for her large frame. Because of this, Shi Yeon has become a recluse, who prefers staying home and producing an Internet broadcast within the safety of her room.
The only time Shi Yeon ventures out is to visit a mysterious tarot card reader who gives Shi Yeon a magical tarot card every day. But the twin sisters’ lives are turned upside down when they wake up one day and realize that their souls have switched bodies! What will an idol musician and Shi Yeon’s high school crush think of the women they thought they knew?

Don't expect too much from it and you'll enjoy it.
This is a short web drama and as such you really shouldn't expect a lot from it. The plot is simple; twin sisters with polar opposite personalities magically switch their bodies.The acting is okay, I personally found that the girls acted better pretending to be each other's character than they did being their own character haha. There's no solid ending though, to be honest, we don't really know what happens with the main couple but you can assume, I suppose.
The songs are nice, but also that could be because Donghyun sings most of it. Haha, I loved Boyfriend back in the day so I got a bit of a bias for his voice.
However, I like that this drama also has a message to it. You have to love yourself for who you are.

Honestly it would have made a better movie. The short run-time definitely impacts the story overall. There are hints of 3 dimensional characters, but in the end they just aren't explored enough for you to fully connect with them. There's also hints of lessons learned (as you'd expect with any body swap drama), but it's never quite stated in a satisfactory way.
All this said, the acting was decent, but not outstanding (though seeing a 28-year-old play a high school senior is a bit distracting); the story was interesting enough to keep me hooked; and the music whilst generic was also fine.
Overall: I do recommend this if you enjoy light and fun dramas, just treat like a chick-flick movie (like Princess Diaries or She's the Man) and don't expect too much.
