My opinion is not about the fantasy portion, but the political plot. If the Left Min Rasputin, as InspectorMegre…
i have pondered that question myself, not just with this drama, but after watching other historical ones, the long answer is too wordy, the short answer is the paper screened door.

I totally agree. When Dal I is in the Prince’s body she becomes the stereotypical weak, overly emotional female who’s not too bright. Her clever resourceful personality completely disappeared when they soul swapped. It’s 2025 and by now the screenwriter should know better than to write his prejudices into a drama script.

predictably i did start to like this less after the soul swap. pre swap the fl's main draw was that she was fearless, strong and she always tried to solve her own problems, now poof all of that is just gone and replaced with a constantly quivering mess 🙄 like are we just supposed to forget what she was like the first four episodes? and he's just over there doing whatever. so disappointing
they have chemistry too and they're wasting it on this nonsense omg
Oh my God, Kang Tae Oh’s acting is SO bad, I swear I could cry at any moment 😭.
Really? I'm watching a diff drama I guess cause I think he is nailing all the emotional scenes and I'm totally impressed. I got chills at the end of 7.

Disclaimer: I’m already disappointed in this drama and you will not like my opinion.
I really wanted to like this drama, especially because the first episode showed so much potential. Unfortunately, the writing is cringy and unintentionally absurd at times.
One of the examples is the pool scene. It’s 2025; who is jumping into a pool to save a **printed** report, and who even goes to pool to meet with their boss in the first place? This really breaks immersion because you start questioning and analyzing how moments like this are outdated and disconnected from how people actually behave.
The female lead also suffers from inconsistent characterization. In her first appearance, she’s natural and true to herself, someone strict when necessary but very grounded. Then, for some reason, the moment she encounters the male lead again, she suddenly shifts into an almost childlike “innocent” persona. Her reaction to him being “worried” feels so odd, considering she disappeared without notice after what was presented as a genuine date; of course, the least he could be is being worried. The worst is how easily she accepts the idea that he could ask her to resign over something that happened outside the workplace, something completely irrelevant to the job she got under false pretenses. If anything, the concern should be about her lying her way into the position, not a couple of kisses. It’s the kind of writing that makes it feel like the writers don’t know how to write women and secretly hate them.
The so-called revenge and experiment setup is another example. Why is she conducting a test alone, in the wild, in the middle of the night, with zero relevant training? Experiments are supposed to have proper controls and be done in a lab. If the intention was to portray a user-test scenario, the scene still makes no sense because the measurements and conditions are completely unrealistic.
Overall, the scenarios feel fake and forced; the chemistry never really lands. Dramas should be creative, but should definitely not be completely ridiculous and insult your intelligence.
Given how strong other romance dramas have been the last few years, this really fell short for me.
If your opinion differs from mine, feel free to share
