Lee Mi Jin is a job-seeker who has been exhausted from working various part-time jobs and preparing for a job for a long time. One day, due to an incident, she ages into her 50s, causing her to live as a 50-year-old by day and rejuvenate into her 20s by night.

I have my reservation at first because I thought it's a body swap, well technically it's one person. But it still felt they had different personality and different person, so I tried not to overthink about the romance portion. So far the show is fast pace and almost all characters quite unique and unusual. 

 

Thanks to @mademoiselle, as usual our conversation is like this. M : Tea you should try this drama. Tea : Hmm no I'm not interested. Tried and hooked up 😆, this has started to become the pattern 😂

[SilverMoonTea]

Love E4 @mademoiselle. The prosecutor taking care of her so well, even buy her all those self defense protector and he's very meticulous and don't trust the police. It was quite heart flutrering when he send her home and he purposely getting out from the car, he know her parents has been quite over the top shipping them 😅

Hahaha! Now, it's the challenge of staying till the end.

 

I actually see them as two separate entities. It's too hard to relate old and young as one. The old one receives more respect as well because "she's old" so everyone doesn't act out to her face. I just love how everything CJH and sidekick throw at her to make her resign, she proves her worth and capability. It's predictable but yet, enjoyably funny. I also like the budding friendship between the spoilt idol and her.

 

CJH is really likeable here and a true tsundere. @SilverMoonTea I'm not so sure if he's aware her parents are shipping him with their daughter. I feel he lacks the "eyes" (think of it in Korean) for this sort of thing.

 

@gilaswan there's a thread now.

@ktcjdrama Are you watching this? @Alice Wonderland??

Good point. At first I thought he's aware but there is possibility that he's kind of tactless. I thought he was aware because their last meeting he asked her to go out to the cafe instead of going to her home. But you're probably right he might be not aware because he send her back home again after that 😂 

 

I think this probably best of CJH's drama and character after some time. 

 

Btw the other prosecutor girl, is she just his fans? I thought they were an ex. But after they spoke didn't seems so? 

 

Yeah in face change drama like this, normally I will expect one character to appear more. But I do like both old and young version and they're funny on their own each way. I really have good fun and laugh a lot. 

[mademoiselle]

@SilverMoonTea Yes, that's why I think he didn't pick up on the cue. LOL. $100 bet on the murder victim was his mother, too. What's your thoughts on that?

 

Agreed, CJH has been having bad dramas/roles. But lol, the first thing I thought was "prosecutor" again? He has played many since.

 

The other Prosecutor lady I think has one-sided crush on him. And a bit of rivalry as well. Not ex. He doesn't look like he's ever been in a relationship.

Thinking about watching... how is it so far? 

I am currently watching (leisurely) an old weekend drama Homemade Love Story. Surprisingly quite good, except for a certain unstable entitled brat who thinks everyone owes her the world.

Not bad. I enjoyed it especially E3-4

[Alice Wonderland]

What is it about? From the trailer it seems like soul-swap theme?

Not soul swapping. She turns into an ahjumma at sunrise and goes back to herself after sun down.

[mademoiselle]

@SilverMoonTea Are you up-to-date? I like episode 5 and 6 as well. The show is good with the cliffhanger. I find myself going "Araggghhh! Don't end there!"

 

There is a big part of me that wish CJH drank that spiked beer, so it's his turn to act up in front of her. Hahaha!

I love this show. I had caught up to all 6 episodes. It had the right craziness, some hint of misteries, family love, plenty of comedy and CJH nailing his role! He's a perfect tsundere. 

 

The teenager being questioned by them was so funny. All the kkondae generation (old) can't decipher their conversation 😂, but Mijin understand because she also playing game 😂 Btw how much age gap between Mijin and Ji Ung? Any idea? 

 

@Alice Wonderland @ktcjdrama give it a try. I also had my reservation when madame asked me to watch this. Because I also had doubt with all the changing between young & old. But the change was quite seamless and you will end up liking both of them and rooting for both young and old characters. The slight and slow burn romance also working for me. 

 

Tbh if the pace could keeping like this until the end, it could become one of best drama of the year. It giving me Behind Your Touch vibe which is comedy investigation. This year K drama had been so let down, I like Blood Free but that one is a crazy ride and I was not super satisfied with the whole thing.

[mademoiselle]

@SilverMoonTea CJH makes a cute tsundere here! I liked it so much more than that other drama he played with L. That one was difficult to get into, whereas this one is a breeze.

 

I thought it's funny that Ji Woong's surname is "Gye" = same pronunciation as "dog". xD

 

The official website says Ji Woong is in his mid-30s.

 

Hahaha, I don't blame the kkondae. Technically, the game bit is not even the main point. The main point was they met this scammer through the game and got the drug. They said it in just a roundabout way.

 

I find the idol boy cute, but too short as you know I'm into tall guys these days  I thought he's a real life idol too but he's not. He is a singer actor though.

 

I'm loving the budding romance, though. He obviously likes her and went all the way to the water park to meet her just to give her back the empty containers. Eeek!

I started this !!! It is very funny and I am up to mid eps 2. I think CJH has chemistry with both versions of her. Ahjumma version cracks me up no end. But despite the fun bits , there's also some dark things going on with him coming to this smaller town/ district to reinvestigate cold cases of missing adults. Will catch up by the weekend 

 

Except for Numbers which aired last year ( I didn't feel like watching a drama related to my line of work ), I have watched every drama of Choi Jin Hyuk since 2014. My goodness, time flies. 

[abs-oluteM]

This was so fun with not a single boring moment that I binged all available episodes. I pretty much stayed up and laughed hysterically. Ahjumma scenes are spot on ! I love it every time she surprises them with some unexpected skill . And I dig the budding romance between the leads - it is done quite naturally as they have more time interacting. 

So that last old man who joined as the intern is suspicious - they make it obvious. So I am wondering if he's the killer?

 

Hahahah can't wait for this when she will declare him as her oppa

[abs-oluteM]

This is too funny 

 

[abs-oluteM]

OMG...topstar already figured out that the ahjumma is her! And wahhh this means he'll be crushing even harder. The best progress last night is that the leads are heading the right direction romantically. 

We also got some flashbacks to Prosecutor Gye and his mum. His mum looks super young & is she like one of those hostesses or bar girls who went missing? 

 Love triangle will begin?

 @ktcjdrama give it a try.

I am all caught up several days ago actually, haha... I had forgotten my oppa is in this, and only when I saw the casting that I realized this is on my watch-list. I love all the 3 leads, but I'm staying eventually for Lee Jung Eun (sorry oppa...). It's just hilarious to see her acting as the young version  She is so good...!! This is the one drama I'm looking forward to now.

 

I have to say that for some scenes, I wished Jung Eun Ji didn't pull her face down too much that she looked soooo much older, mainly because her nasolabial lines become so much more accentuated, making it hard to believe she is in her 20s. I need to see her as young person to contrast with the old version.

 

[abs-oluteM]

Today's episode is really good. I read some spoilers and can't wait for NF to put this up

 

This kiss happened when she was trying to make him drunk hoping to steal a missing person's list ( her aunt is there). He did open up to her during their convo. She ended up more drunk but declared this kiss isn't an accident!

 

 

[abs-oluteM]

Hello @mademoiselle and @SilverMoonTea who sold me this drama...did you all watch yet?  Am I the one more invested now? 

I like it so much that I am dying for eps 9. I think the balance of comedy, romance and crime is very good. And while I don't have SLS, Go Won has grown on me. It was so funny the extent to which he is now trying to protect her that he would find a way to change where he is working. Romance wise , I am still very much on board the intended pairing. It's hard not to love our sometimes clueless about love prosecutor. Actually, I am hoping they will have a wedding or something simply because I want him so much to be a part of MinJi's family. I love how much her parents love him.

 

So the former hospital director intern is likely responsible for it all since the drama makes it known. But what if it is all just rumors and coincidences ? 

[mademoiselle]

@abs-oluteM Still watching. Only caught up last night. I like Go Won too! He's really cute albeit he needs to fix his anxiety issues.

 

[SilverMoonTea]

@abs-oluteMdon't worry will catching up. I only behind with ep 8, been so tired last night so haven't watching it yet. CJH is hella cute. I even run Zombie Detective for him, and it cracked me out too.. the zombie was so obsessed with wearing bb cream lols. 

 

I think so far from all his leading actress Eunji had the best chemistry with him. Had not been too impressed by him on romance department before.

[abs-oluteM]

Hahah now that Go Won knows who ahjumma really is , he isn't holding back with his affections. 

Joo Byung Duk's expressions seeing this "romance" is priceless
