More like family drama than revenge drama
Well, at first, like most people think, I also think it was a revenge drama, but when they got the body swap, I was already intrigued, like, how is he going to take revenge on himself?But the plot is even better; instead of revenge, it was a journey to redeem himself, a second chance in life to sort everything back. I admit it was slow and has lots of boring stuff, but believe me, the betrayals and massive plot twist will keep you watching.
It is a very sad drama, actually, and it makes me realise a lot of things about my family that I also didn't realise before.
It's important to note that some might find it disturbing seeing the daughter started having feelings for her father in the younger body, but the director is very wise and keeps the romance in check; her father is still deeply in love with her mother, and his love for his daughter is just fatherly love.
I won't give away the ending, but it's a happy one in which everyone who commits a crime is held responsible for their actions; the true villain is your assumption of someone.

Husbands and wifes dynamic we never thought we need
All this time, we think marriage is scary and terrifying, of course it is, still is.The best part in this movie is the family dynamic, they still love each other in different ways after their divorce, and their new partner understood their partner past history and trusted them. even after a divorce you can still be family, even though you are not longer a lover.
i also absolutely love seeing the villain couple too, they loved each other so genuinely, they love their partner crime as well, so funny. Hyeran kidnap Sinae, to get her husband back. What a devoted couple.
not to forget the plot twist at the very end of the movie, hinting there will be a second movie is absolute cinema.

No villain, just life being cruel
Honestly I wasnt planning to watch this in the first place, i know how cliche it will be and since i already dropped speed and love, i thought this is the same. it also uses brother-sister dynamics but thank god, it just for a short while.The best part is they are not met by chance, or by coincidence, they met by choice. Xixiao seek her to buy her notes and Zhouwan seek him to get money from her mother who is currently his father's mistress. surely, at first, she only tried to get money for her grandma surgery, but she surely make him fall too hard. when her grandma died, he stayed by her side, and that is very profound. they runaway is absolutely cute (though i dont recommend it irl). i love how nonchalant he is but still expressing his feeling obviously.
they said there is a lot of misunderstanding in the drama, surely it is, but in my opinion, they already know and understand each other well even though they dont know anything since they dont communicate, but they immediately forgive each other is golden.
there's a lot up-down in the drama, and i keenly follow through with the updates. there's biggest plot twist at the finale, and i absolutely love it.
