I like Secret Garden very much (I watched it 4 times) , even if there are things not in my style. Well, I am going in steps. Story: The story is simple, but well told. The link between her father and the body switch is clear from the first time they switch, but the reasons of this are revealed only in the end, step by step. The story is well balanced, not too much fantasy, not too much reality, not too much bad, not too much good, not too much romance. Feelings are well mixed, so that you can think "This is not a commedy, but even if it is moving you can still feel comfortable while watching" Even if the romance between the two main characters is the main topic, you are interested also in other. Good plot, well done. Acting/Cast: I have to say I liked the casting, but I don't like the main actress. She is good indeed, but sometimes I just felt there wasn't chemistry between her and Hyun Bin (even if when they switch you started to think it was real haha). Anyway, I think it was also in her character to be too cold sometimes. Nothing to say about Hyun Bin, he is one of my favourite actors, and when it comes to dramas like this I just love him too much. He was funny and caring in a cute way. My fav character in the show. Speaking about 'Oska', I loved both character and actor; I was able to find out that he is actually very good in acting. I was always laughing or crying when he was on the screen. The other characters were absolutely cute: the guys from the stunt school, and also Lee Jong Suk, that played his character well (actually he improved a lot from here, but he was already in the good-actor mood) Music: The ost is very good. I like "That woman" a lot, that song suits perfectly the drama. Everytime it was played I felt like it was giving a big help to the acting. In the end, I think this is a must to watch, even if you don't like fantasy dramas. Firstly because the switching was so real, second because there is not only fantasy.
