I started watching this drama because I've been craving for some jdrama recently. The subbing for Switch Girl is currently very very slow. I don't even think that episode one is subbed. And so what I did was read the manga first [online of course] and then watch the drama. Fortunately, they follow the manga pretty well except for some little changes here and there.
Story: The story is pretty average I believe. Although I can see some potential. It's not done yet so I'm sure it'll get better over time.
Cast: I like the main actress. She has a pretty face as well as the main actor. They both act very well and they have chemistry. But their heights bug me though. But I don't hold that against any of them.
Music: The music's okay. Not that good but not bad either.
Rewatch: Possibly.
Overall: I'd still recommend it. One reason is because its a live-action and another because i like the actors in it.

I gave a 9 on the actors because they really are good in acting. Also because I know Siwon and Donghae and some of the Taiwanese actors and actresses from previous dramas. I do not know the main actress though and i don't really like her a lot. But maybe she'll grow on me.
I really LOVE the opening theme song! Its very catchy.

The OST for this movie was GREAT! especially the 'Maria' one. I think that everyone loves a revenge movie. and this movie approached that subject really well.
Although, the romantic aspect of this movie was not delivered as I hoped it should be. The actors were great. The main actress was really pretty and acted really well. As well as for the other actors and actresses of this movie.
Overall, this movie is a must-see for people of all ages. I'd really recommend it! :)

The writing was uneven. There was a fun supernatural element along with the premise of 4 flower boys living in a mansion and charged with turning a goth girl into a lady. The friendships were portrayed nicely and the love story was cute. Some episodes were good. But some were just bad. The last one left me cold, with a twist I did not like.
The acting was uneven. Some gave pretty good performances. Kamenashi Kazua was a standout. But he’s been pretty good in the three dramas I have seen. Oomasa Aya was good as the girl who loves blood and skulls and death. The others were a little choppy but I got passed it because I liked the friendship between the four boys.
I think I have seen too many really stellar dramas to fall in love with this one. But having mentioned the negative things let me mention a few things that I liked: I loved the relationship development between Kyohei and Sunako. They truly had some very funny moments together and some very touching and cute ones as well. I liked how fast he came to accept her even if he took a long time to sort out his feelings. Sunako truly had some fun/funny personality quirks. The dynamic of friendships in the house between everyone was enjoyable and kept me watching until the end. I loved that house! I want it!
The music was forgettable except for one little detail: The bar/café they frequent has a very fun detail, almost easter egg to watch for. I’m not going to spoil it here but watch closely. Once you figure it out…It’s very fun to keep your eye out for.
The rewatch value is low for me. I probably won’t watch this again.
This is a cute drama…it has it’s value and it’s place. If you like supernatural elements in dramas and a cute love story, this is one drama you may like.

A well-done drama about two lifelong friends, who once they move in together, realize how much they mean to each other. Where does the line between friendship and love start to blur?
This is a heartwarming drama that may seem a bit cliched and predictable off the bat. Can a guy and a girl just be best friends, especially when they start to share a home together? But the journey to the end, with these endearing characters, are worth it.
The main leads have wonderful chemistry with one another and the plot moves along in a natural and realistic manner. The side characters are not just for filler, they are interesting and well-fleshed as well.
I really identified with Soo Ae's character's struggles on a personal level : a lot of the tensions in the drama come from the struggles of a ticking clock (age) and trying to find a place in the world, in terms of love and career.
A highly recommended romantic comedy.

To be honest, I was laughing non-stop throughout this entire series. Wacky characters and hilarious dialogue and wonderful comedic timing from all the characters. Son Chang Min and Lee Jong Soo stole the show with their comedic prowess. Plus, the baby was super cute.
Just want to mention that there are some mature themes and content, as a warning. There is some potty humor and some crude(ish) scenes. But nothing too graphic.
A cheeky and hilarious drama that shines with warmth and themes of friendship and brotherhood.

This drama took my interest as I am biology major and I wanted to see how the drama could make bacteria interesting. The drama does a good job of being informative without being too stuffy and ... the bacteria were super cute.
The acting fell a bit short a few times throughout the series but all the characters were interesting enough. The plot was entertaining and seemed to go by smoothly.
Cute and most of all, amusing.

Lee Min Ho is fantastic.
The drama portrays so much emotion it's hard not to feel as the characters do.
This is also my first KDrama, and I'm glad that I chose this one to watch first. I've always avoided KDramas but now I really don't get why I did! If you miss out on this you miss out on probably the most awesome drama ever.
I cannot wait to watch the next episode! XD

Unfortunately, the story was lacking at the start and downright awful and ridiculous at the end. The dialogue wasn't awful, but it was like there was no character development at all and the choices the characters made were illogical and obviously only to create some dramatic effect.
It didn't; it didn't make me excited for the next episode, instead I found myself thinking:'I have to watch ANOTHER episode without a proper plot?!' But the three people in the love triangle are so charming, that it made it at least watchable. But I certainly do NOT recommend this show.

The effects used in this drama are SO unrealistic, it's anime like. Maybe it's because they're staying attached to the anime like glue, or maybe because it's a taiwanese drama. You tell me.
The story follows a teenage girl, Gong Xi, who moved from the countryside to the city together with her childhood friend who aspires to be an idol. Always working to support him and his expenses, she feels heartbroken when he betrays her. As she swears for revenge, her friend challenges her to enter showbiz, because if she doesn't, she'll never be able to lay a finger on him. This plants motivation in the Gong Xi, and she eventually teams up with the agency of her friends ultimate rival.
The story in my opinion is really shallow, but for a romantic comedy of this kind, it usually is. The drama isn't there for the deep and meaningful moments. It's there for entertainment, and if you're able to throw all pre-judgemental thoughts away before watching, it will entertain you. It's a lay-back-and-watch kind of drama, so just roll with it and ignore the overused anime effects.
Honestly, the only actor I actually like in this series so far is Siwon. Normally I'd say Donghae as well, but we haven't actually really SEEN him yet. There's mostly flashbacks or small cut scenes. Maybe this part will be edited once the drama progresses, who knows. Siwon does an amazing job though, and I find myself reminding myself he's primarily a singer and not an actor. Yay Siwon!
The music is amazing. The soundtrack for the drama is a VERY VERY catchy song sung by Super Junior M, and I am ripping my hair out to this day due to the lack of a full version. It's the only drama I actually sit through the intro of, and sometimes even watch twice. Way to go, whoever is responsible for the soundtrack!
Meh, I dunno.. If you're a big fan of the anime, then I guess you could watch it. You are warned though, the story here is identical to the anime, so if you hoped for diversity to the original story, you better ought to spend your time doing something else. If you haven't watched the anime and are considering to watch the drama, then maybe you should watch the anime. The effects belong in anime, not drama...
That is all.

Let me tell you, this is definitely a must watch. After watching City Hunter I had quite the expectations for dramas I'll see, and Secret Garden did the trick! At first, I really didn't get the hype at all. But then... what the heck! If I recall correctly, I was hooked from ep 1! The story is really great and you will LOVE the characters. The whole idea of switching-body-thing gives it a nice twist. The OST is great too. They have perfect songs for the funny moments and they have that perfect song for the crying moments (i.e. That Woman). I'm 99% sure you won't regret this one, trust me (and the other reviewers here)!
If you're looking for a rom-com, then watch Secret Garden. Overall, it's worth the watch:)

From the first Episode to the last one I had a smile on my face.
Seeing how Asuka is trying to hide his true self is somehow exciting.
I liked how his arch rival Tonomine turns every woman into a butterfly.
How Tachibana stalks Asuka and Ryo tries to protect Asuka.
Every character has its own cuteness they are the reason this drama should be watched.
Its not one of the super great manga adaptions like Hana Yori Dango or others, but its a drama I´m happy I watched.

Story: it was great. It never make me stop watching or bored. When i thought story is over, It always make me shocked by its turn overs. It has everything spies,revenge and cold-blooded,handsome man:D
Cast: Lee Jun Ki ( This was the first drama that i saw him) , Nam Sang Mi, Jung Kyong Ho ultimate trio:) the atmosphere between them is so good that you can't stop watching. Especially Lee Jun ki's acting make you bewildered,it likes in one drama he has many characters.
Music: It has a range from rap to classics and none of them unnecessary for drama.
Rewatch value: definitely i will watch tihs over and over again.It is certain that i will find many other things while rewatching:)
If you like action and revenge you must watch this drama. You will never regret:)

The story basically is about 2 students of the same university, from two different departments, different interests, different family backgrounds only with the same passion, music.
The first two episodes, were boring. The pace got faster from the 3 to the middle part but that was it. The climax failed to hold my interest. Probably because, the actors' acting and storyline. Just imagine riding a roller coaster and in the climactic part you got stuck and all you have to do is get off of the cart and climb down.
The main lead actor was ever conscious of his looks..His expressions seemed to play from sad to happy. While the female lead's usual sunny personality still can be seen in this drama. It's like playing the part of Park Shin Hye by herself.
However, I must commend the cinematic views of this drama. One can feel relaxed by watching the play of pictures in his TV screen.
Music is another, they were great.

I must say I'm impressed with Vaness' acting here I thought he was just a pretty face gracing dramas for teens. The main female lead is also very good. She doesnt need to act cutey here.The main actors' acting as parents were natural. I love their ideas on parenting and disciplining their child. They were sensible like on being not a picky-eater, helping others, making others happy. Over-all their acting were very good.
One can gain parenting wisdom from watching this drama, from choices in life to being a happy parent to a happy child.
However, their lines..aww. Gave me goosebumps for being too mushy! so corny. The lines were like being read straight from a novel. For this I must say 'unnatural'.
And can someone please tell Vaness not to make that hideous smile of his, he kinda look like Jafar from Aladdin or the cat from PUss in a Boots. I doesn't look manly in an arched eyebrows and wide grin :D peace. But I started to believe he is a good actor though.
