Synopsis

A man is worked to death, but he comes back to the living world in the attractive body of another man for a limited amount of time.

Lee Hae Joon (Rain) is a perfect man with good looking appearance. He works as a section chief in the women’s apparel section at a department store. His body is actually possessed by the spirit of Kim Young Soo (Kim In Kwon) who was worked to death. Meanwhile, Hong Nan (Oh Yeon Seo) is a beautiful woman, but her spirit is possessed by a tough guy, Han Ki Tak (Kim Soo Ro). At the same time, Shin Da Hye (Lee Min Jung) is a beautiful housewife, but her husband suddenly dies. She falls into a love triangle with Lee Hae Joon and a promising store employee Jung Ji Hoon (Yoon Park).

I know about this k-drama from my friend's post on Path. She was just posting it's poster with not much on caption, she only said that this k-drama is hilarious. Seeing on the picture she posted, I don't really get it, and there you go, the Curious George in me saying that I have to search for this, online! I tap on my smartphone's browser, I google it! DING DONG! Once I found it, I read it carefully, not really understand what's it all about, some article only mention that it's about someone who work his ass off to die, and come back to life, that's it. Duh! I mean, really? There're some k-drama with the same plot, coming back to life after you die, and given a little amount of time to finish the unfinished business, right?

At that time (while googling), which interest me was Rain, yes, Rain is one of it's main actor here! You know, he's hot and etc :P. This is another poster I saw online, yet I still don't understand what it means LOL, who care, right, it's just a poster. 

My curiosity grows larger and I can't help it, I need to watch it's 1st episode to decide whether I'll watch it's whole episode or I wont.

Watching episode 1, with a hope to get the hilarious side of this drama, but ended up disappointed, why? because there was none. I get upset watching the first episode, I know it's only one episode and mostly talks about their characters, their goals, right? First episode, flash back to two days before our main characters die, their family, their work, why they die, how they die, and those who involve on their death. 

I'm not saying that it was boring, no, it's just really upset me, the manager's an asshole, the bosses boss's a jerk, gangster's, lying model, messed up ex girlfriend.. what?? yeah, I know, just mentioning those made me tired...

The interesting part was right after our two main character die and headed to a train station which they have to get on the train to go to their afterlife whether it's heaven or hell :D.

Train station scene is my most favorite where our main guys get to met Maya-ssi, she's a ticketing lady, she stamp all spirits tickets with their last destination which are Heaven or Hell. She's funny, just the way she talks, I know that she'll be something more than that.

Our two main character, one is Kim Young So, the workaholic, work his ass off to death to make a living for his family and the other is Han Gi Tak, the chef (actually he's an ex gangster), who did bad things in the past and left by the woman he loved, so you'd know which stamp goes to whom, right?? Interesting isn't it?

Yes, Young So gets a ticket to Hell and Gi Tak gets one to heaven! Confused? Don't be. Here, both of them get confused and they headed back to Maya-ssi to make sure. But all she said was, she didn't give them the wrong ticket, funny right? So there he is, Young So talks to the train station's head and ask for explanation. The answer was clear, he goes to hell because he suicide, Young So think about his family knowing he's death because of he kills himself, he regret it and in no time, he's ticket turn into a ticket heaven. Yay! 

NO YAY for me, he deserve hell for neglecting his family for work, for his asshole manager, damn it's never gonna happen!!

Right after they got their ticket to heaven, they sit side by side on the train and halfway to heaven, Young so thinks a lot about his family, about his promise to his wife, so he made a commotion by yelling that he want to get off the train. Later on, a big guy (an officer) come and ask for him to stop but Young So won't stop, Han Gi Tak act heroic here, he's truing to help Young So, but fail. They ended up running away because the officer has call backups to help him. The two reached the end of the train where their only option was to jump off of the train, so they jump thinking they can't die twice. 

They jump and land by sitting on two chair side by side in an office, in front of Maya-ssi (she's really something, I like her :D). They insist that they want to come back to life, so, Maya-ssi hand them some kind of form for them to fill in and she told them everything about going back to life. Right after she stamp those form, the two ahjussi woke up in a room, and talk to themselves. 

I enjoy this drama from the train station scene up until now, it reached its 4th episode already, You may not like the bad guy in this drama, because they have leverage which a troublesome. The funny thing is Rain's playing two characters here, one was the one who possessed by Young So's spirit and the other was him as the son of Sujin Mall's owner, both are funny guy. Han Gi Tak, return to his life inside a woman's body, he lost his ability to fight which is funny, s/he walks like a guy, one thing he didn't lost is his loyalty to his beloved family and messed up ex girlfriend. I want to see more episode where Maya-ssi has to keep the real Lee Hae Joon from the possessed one, it's going to be hilarious. :D
