Ma Ri is really annoying, and has way too much screen time for my taste. "The Moon that Embraces the Sun" & "Queen In Hyun's Man" references were pretty funny though. I think that I only enjoy her in small doses.
Though the episode itself wasn't so exciting, the fact that the story has been pretty unpredictable has me excited to see what happens next. After the ending I almost don't want him to ever change back.

The cheesy moment when they basically fall into each others lips was awesome. It's so much fun to hate Se Hyun, and watch her antics backfire. I wish Jung Woo would be less passive, but he knows he has no chance to stand between the two people he cares so much about.
This episode was fun, and emotional, without taking itself to seriously. I can't wait until the next one : )

Many of the emotional scenes in this are way too over the top to be effective. They just involve lots of screaming, "crazy eyes", angry tears, and staring off into space... BUT...
There is a scene in this episode, between Seon Woo & Cho in, that really touched me deeply. It didn't bring me to tears, but it didn't have to to be effective. It made an episode ending, that I predicted would happen at some point, actually feel exciting. This drama has been keeping up momentum nicely, and has avoided an "18th episode slump".
Only 2 episodes left...

I love So Ji Sub's intensity! If he wasn't the star, I would have dropped this one a long time ago.

What I find most annoying is that the romance between the two main characters feels so stagnant. Watching Da Ran try to get a hold of her feelings should have been touching, but instead it felt silly. They need to kiss, or switch bodies quick instead of more time wasters like the making pandas scene.
The ending to this episode was a huge disappointment, and so anti-climactic. I expect so much better from the Hong Sisters. They owe a big debt to Gong Yoo for making this show watchable.

Lee Seung Ki had some really great acting moments in this episode. Watching him react to being betrayed, and trying to contain his temper with creepy the clown from club m, i was really impressed.
Sometimes sweet/vulnerable Kim Hang Ah gets on my nerves. I loved the sweet moments she had with her mom in law, but I'd rather see her being bad@ss. That's why i can't wait till next weeks episode. Her expression at the end of the episode got me excited.
I also can't predict what will happen next, which is always a good thing.
