I've always held this story in high regard, but after rereading the series again years later I have new opinions. Ofc I still really enjoy the series and this author makes very intriguing plots.
After my reread my opinion on the main group have changed considerably. Why is it that the entire group (besides Hoon and taemin) lack basic empathy? I found their opinions on Siwon and how they treated Taemin when they thought he was Siwon appalling. Both Woojin and green haired guy seem to have a decent understanding of Siwon's situation, but thought about him as nothing more than dirt. It permanently altered my feelings towards them and how they see someone who is an obvious victim. Especially Woojin watching the recorded rape scene? It disturbed me. I can't say i really came to enjoy Woojins character to my best potential bc of that. Thats not a writing issue though, I understand why Woojin acts that way considering the only person he's ever cared for IS Taemin.
For the actual writing itself I really wish they would've expanded more on Hoon and green hairs story!! Same with Joohoon. It felt like Joohoon was slapped in the story really fast, but besides how he met Jiwook we don't get much details besides that.
Besides that I enjoyed the story overall. It's really hard for me to get into body swap stories, but this one was able to keep me entertained the entire time. I loved the parallel between Woojin and Taemin both losing their identities, just in different ways. It genuinely tore me up to know nobody was on Siwons hide until the very end!!!
