If not for the last 30 mins of last episode, show would have been 9/10
Didn't like the ending, unnecessarily pushed to 18 episodes. If not for the ending, it would have received a 9/10I loved the new love story and logic between choosing the one of the wives.
He is a completely different person who fell in love with the Kim Hyun Joo.
Because he changed, he is not in love with his previous wife.
It is just like divorcing first wife and falling in love and marrying another woman later. It Tracks
Why would you erase all that beautiful love story just so another one can get his chance. It does not track as well as does not sit well with me.
The love story can be looked at without supernatural element like this: (Analogy)
Divorced Man with one child and Widowed woman with two children fall in love and marry and live happily live together.
You could take it a bit far and say, 1st wife dies in an accident, so now the family is Two parents and Three children.
I would have loved this ending.
Why did you push the entire plot (entire 17.5 episodes) into oblivion. The last 30 mins of the last episode shatters a beautiful love story.
Loved the second chance at love for KIM HUN JOO Character, but ruined it in the last 30 mins of the last episode.
It left a bad taste. Like KIM HUN JOO Character is being betrayed/scammed

The actors were so good that they made me feel I am with them, the characters all grew in me, Kim Myung Min acting was so great that I cannot imagine any other actor replacing him in this. He is & will always be one of my top favorite actors.
The romance was beautiful & natural & wasn't speeded up... you will have a mixture feeling that it's wrong & so right at the same time, & the chemistry between Kim Myunh Min & Kim Hyun Joo was undeniably natural & strong... I love their moments together as it gave me goosebumps.
The music was sweet, not overdone & put at the right time.
I love everything about this drama, it's definitely worth watching... I'm lucky that I got the chance to watch it, I'm still rewatching my favorite scenes.. don't miss it!

Unique story
Watched this because I am a fan of Kim Hyun Joo.The premise of the story was unique. For someone who has experienced the loss of a loved one, how I wish this could happen in real life as well. However, when the memories of both Hyun Chul started to meld into one, this was where the story really started to fold out.
What does one do when the soul of a loved one is in another body? I can just imagine how difficult it was for the characters involved. But beneath this story, I loved that this story focused on the families.
I was already dreading how this would end and which family he would choose. To be honest, was surprised at his choice. But I am glad that in the end, it all worked out for them.

Out of the 100 KDramas I've watched, this is one of the best
I was addicted from the very first episode.Without giving too much away as I want to make this as spoiler-free a review as possible, I will tell you why you should watch this drama.
This drama is nothing like anything I'd watched before. I've seen a lot of dramas (even ones with body switching), but nothing kept me as gripped and guessing the entire way through with no idea which direction it would take. I went in without reading the plot, only knowing this had something to do with the supernatural and body switching. I am glad I watched the first episode without any expectation, but even if I had, it would probably still blow me away. The directing, acting, everything. From the first episode, you know all of the characters and their personalities, and from there you feel like you're on the journey with them figuring everything out and going through the pain/drama/acceptance with them. There was no way to predict anything.
This drama made me think deeply about the mind, body, soul, life, and death. Is the soul the owner of the body, or the body the owner of the soul? Complex questions like this kept appearing as I watched and I had to dig into my own self to see my own views and beliefs and whether I could agree with what choices the characters made, morally or personally. Without going into too much detail, I will just say that I felt everything fell into place perfectly and went the way it should have in regards to Song Hyun Chul, his parents, children, and both women.
In regards to that, Kim Myung Min BLEW ME AWAY. This actor. I can't give him enough kudos. His way of portraying Song Hyun Chul in all circumstances was fantastic. You believed he was the character, each one of them. I got chills watching him **SPOILER** switch between being the cook and then back to the original banker body's personality and then a combination peak through--you could tell by his subtle mannerisms, tone of voice, everything which Hyun Chul he embodied in each moment and it was absolutely breathtaking. **END SPOILER** I grew to be a big fan of him during this drama and am eager to watch more of his work.
If you are debating whether to watch, give it a chance. I was hooked from the first episode, and the show kept me on my toes and left me with no ability to guess the outcome. I love shows like that, and although the romance might not be as strong and obvious as other kdramas, I felt it, and the romance in this was deep. Very deep.
10/10, and the OST was beautiful as well.
