This premise kinda sounds like the anime Your Name, but it also has potential for comedic gold. If it's a Netflix original it will probably air in 2027/28.
I'm honestly tired of watching things go wrong at the eleventh hour for every single one of their deals. I really wish the business narrative wasn't so repetitive, I swear it's giving me high blood pressure lol. On the other hand, I am really liking the relationship between Miseon's sister and Nammo.
That advertised body swap twist happened 2 episodes too late, though. The plot was so plain for the 4 episodes…
Same thoughts here. Definitely a very odd (or bad..?) choice to do the soul swap more than a quarter of the show in.
Most dramas would do the soul swap at the start (end of episode 1 at max), and slowly unravel the backstories alongside the present timeline. And there is a reason for that -- 2 characters literally being in each other's shoes is the perfect opportunity to mix the exposition and character studies with hilarious hijinks. But this drama has decided to do all its exposition in advance instead, which is definitely... a choice. Just feels like a lot of potential is lost there.
I found the first episodes boring as well. But who knows, this might actually work out in some way.
I've concluded that I'm not a fan of this. I feel that there are better ways to create an engaging story centered on a sociopath as a main character. Many events happen in the drama but they are mostly either obvious or unconvincing. The relationships between Ah-jin and the 3 men are also repetitive and shallow. The complexities of toxic / abusive relationships weren't really explored. But perhaps my biggest issue is that Ah-jin doesn't interest me much as a character. Maybe I was expecting too much after all. It's a pretty lifeless story under a flashy premise, and I don't feel an urge to continue from here.
"Perfect Crown" sounds utterly generic, and I'm subconsciously reminded of The Crown (british show). Wife of a 21st century prince was way more catchy and fitting for what this show is supposed to be.
Not really one of my fave PCW movies as it felt slightly scattered, but a good watch nonetheless. It was pretty humorous (the audience in my cinema laughed a few times) and straight to the point, unlike some of his other movies. I particularly liked the ending sequence and thought it was quite beautiful.
