When I first learned of Big, I was excited for Gong Yoo's return to dramaland. After watching Big, I feel bad for him. He's carried this show to the end with little to no help from either main characters or story.
The story started in an interesting way, but the Hong Sisters' cliched mommy drama and flummoxing machinations ruined it's basic plot of the body switch. What actually began as a decent story with a few flaws ended up being a bad story with very few lights at the end.
To be honest, other than Gong Yoo's Yeon Jae/ Kyung Joon, none of the main characters made me too happy. I liked Suzy as Mari for awhile, until that character got so out of hand that my mind hurt. The supporting characters were much better--I especially liked Choong-shik. Shin Won Ho didn't really get an opportunity to shine at all either.
I will probably never rewatch Big, unless I'm desperate to watch Gong Yoo. All I get from the show is a headache, when rom-coms are supposed to make you forget why your head hurts.
