Not the straight grandfather

I already dislike these body-swapping plots but here they turn the story into something so strange that it's hard to really root for them.

The fact that he falls in love with Zefang's grandfather is hilarious. There were so many paths the series could have taken, but they choose one that really doesn't work.

The actors have excellent chemistry and it's an easy-to-watch series. The short episodes keep the series from dragging but the story doesn't really go anywhere.

I really dislike Xia Cha; he's an older, more mature man, but for some reason he acts incredibly innocent and completely unaware of the world.

There are some interesting moments, but overall it doesn't work very well. The whole plot with the grandfather creates a strangeness that the series can't shake.

Which is disappointing because the actors look excellent together.
