Tough

Yeah it's kinda fucked up how they took the events but regardless of these events, the drama remained weak with subpar writing and passable performance from the cast. I wish the outcome was different, they could've taken the story in a very interesting direction. Since everything happened they didn't even let Dong Woo speak. Really saving a lot of effort in the writing. Otherwise, it would require a very careful write up not to ruin what they built.

Unnecessarily long for such a short story, the comedic/lighter moments weren't good enough to fill the gaps. There wasn't much chemistry between the leads. Both male lead sucked. All the relationships sucked, romantic and non-romantic ones. By the end, I couldn't care less who would end up with who.

It completely fell apart once the situation of the body swap settled in. No comedy, no romance, barely serviceable story and dull characters.

The relationship between the 4 leads was boring and dry. Both male leads can't act to save their life which led to a lackluster chemistry with their female counterpart. Their love story was below average. The 16 episodes barely had enough events, they were riding on a single element that is being a fake doctor.

There was an attempt....

Su Jung ain't worth it! This version of Beauty and the Beast is just not good and full of uncomfortable cringe. There's another drama with a similar concept called That Fool (2009) which did it better.

What kind of male lead is this? All he does is frowning, shouting and being an aggressive douchebag. It's full of unlikable characters and the how they executed the story didn't help either. The kid is included in the plot but had a total of 3 scenes. And then there's the half-assed ending...

All of the four pairs relationships didn't have any depth or whatsoever. Not even a proper build up was provided. If you thought this is about the sisters relationship then you'll be mistaken, it focuses mainly on their love interests and whatever comes with that. I found most of the characters were poorly written, they have the motivation of a first grader, even throwing a tantrum like one. Even if we considered the pairs relationships, all of them were underdeveloped. The romance failed and the family drama failed, not sure what else left to it. The performance was average at best, I've seen Chae Rim doing far better in other projects.

It's alright...

I couldn't stomach most of Dong Yup scenes. They gave him too much attention and screen-time. Would prefer more focus on other characters. The drama itself was decent with a handful of funny scenes but unfortunately not memorable.

Awful beginning...

The first 23 episodes were really painful to get through, mainly because they are flashbacks with the young version of the cast. The flashbacks didn't add anything to the story and they could have been easily summed up in 3-4 episodes. Even after the flashbacks there was barely anything happening. It's almost just a slice of life until the last portion. Relationships were awful and unnecessarily tangled in a love square where none had any emotional weight by the end. The drama has one of the most awkward endings, you can feel the characters melting from awkwardness. Even if I disregarded the flashbacks and the relationships, there wasn't anything else appealing to me, not even the cast performance. You might like if you are looking for a slice of life set in 1970.

Alright

Great performance from Yoon So Yi, I love her bug face. This was much better than expected. Compared to the writer's and director's other project "Love Twist" this is definitely better. However, there were many problems holding it back other than the usual drag of the 2nd half of all dailies. There were a disgusting amount of time-skips which made it a big turn off especially with that last time-skip of 3 years which also led to a cold ending. This is a great example of what not to do with time-skips. The other big problem was rape! They went through the worst possible way to set up the story. Once again, it's acceptable in Kdramas to rape a guy while being passed out then get pregnant to force him into marriage and create plethora of subsequent shenanigans. I've seen this maneuver repeated step by step so many times and Korean writers keep getting away with it! Anyway, the drama is decent despite the big misses.

huh.....

This is the type of revenge story were the villain commit double digits crimes yet they don't get a worthy punishment after 100 episodes pain. The drama was okay for the first half but unfortunately the second half was doomed to fail because everything became inside a corporate setting. I yearn for the day drama writers realize that 2 parties fighting each other inside a company is boring as fuck! About 40-50 episodes were wasted on these random fights. The drama initially included the kids heavily but shortly after they were completely dropped to never be seen again on screen until the last scene. Anyway, only the 1st half was watchable.

If only....

The drama was fine until Seung Joo married around episode 22 then everything fell off along with my interest. After that, the drama solely focused on her entangled relationships and love square while ignoring most of the other stories/characters and turning them to a side story. This change of direction ruined the drama.

If you read the synopsis, the story will pan out exactly step by step as you would expect it. As generic as any other birth secret story can be so don't expect anything. The writing was weak and the cast performance as well. From the very first scene it smelled like low budget.
