Feel-Good Story of 2022
This drama is getting a lot of undeserved criticism in the review section, so I feel obligated to leave a review of my own. I put off watching Vice Versa for an entire year because of its reception despite it being fantastic! It's thoughtful, beautifully shot, heartfelt, well-acted, and fun. It's fun! I wouldn't describe it as a comedy, but it's lighthearted in its use of cameos and other GMMTV show easter eggs. The plot contrivances are familiar tropes taken straight out of any web novel (which makes sense considering the story is based on one), but everything is handled with an earnestness and integrity that allows the story to feel resonant. It is fiction and you do have to buy into the worldbuilding, but Vice Versa makes it easy for viewers to do so. Also, the scriptwriting team also worked on the critically-acclaimed My School President, so you know that they're good at what they do. Please give this show a shot and watch with an open mind.
