I loved everything about this except for the serial killer. USAIBFIWBJLABJLASBGJLABGLRJBZDJLAGSBASLJRGBAJLRG. I will continue to watch though, lol.

Lee Jung Eun is killing it, she is so delightful.

CJH and JEJ have such cute chemistry.

Also the umbrella as the multipurpose tool of choice is my new favorite kdrama trope. Fantastic. Good for rain, acid, and eggs.

1. I don't believe both actresses are playing the same person.

I get that during the day she's supposed to feel "extra energetic" because she's still young even if her body isn't (Idk how that works but ok), however, her vibe feels off, imo.

I can't imagine Eun Ji having that type of energy/high tension. Ever.😆
Even tho this character is more positive and brighter that any of her previous works, it still has a little of Eun Ji's neutrality. And then there's Jung Eun that feels way more bright and alive than Eun Ji (or any young person I know tbh).

They're trying to say that she keeps the health/energy/strength of a young person even when she gets older. But it actually feels like some Benjamin Button stuff is going on here, because she seems way healthier and positivity than the OG 28yo body.
I would say she has the soul of a 20 yo instead. Probably gets younger every day.

Night's body language is the one of someone carrying the weight and stress of 8 years of ramen and books. She also seems kind of shy/insecure but cute.

Day acts like someone that spent the last eight years going hiking with friends and having zero worries about life. She smiles and interacts way more. And even talks a different (Busan accent where are you?).

Even during the jumping in bed scene it felt totally different.
Of course, it could be that I'm too used to Eun Ji's vibe, so I can't picture her being like "yay! 😁" But I don't know, I don't feel like this character is supposed to feel that way.
Being X age won't make you automatically healthy, energetic and a ray of sunshine. At least not in the context this show gave.

That said, I do like the actresses individually. Like two different characters.

I want the parents to believe Mi Jin. It would be fun and cute to see them interact with Day.

Also, wingmom was so funny when she scolded dad, and then said "tonight we're getting grandchildren" 😂 The mom is my fave.

2. Honestly, I don't like Jin Hyuk in this type of role.
His chemistry with the FL is what always saves his boring characters (I don't believe anyone who says they watched Pride and Prejudice or Devilish Joy for the plot). So I really need his chemistry with these two actresses to be insane if we're going to turn this romcom into a serial killer chase.

I will wait till the 4th episode to watch. My plate is too full at the moment.

Straight off the bat, I have to say that Lee Jung Eun is the best of this show.

Now that that's out of the way, so far the show is what I expected. I thought the two women switching would be the most interesting and funny as well as the supporting characters. I wasn't interested in the male lead before and I'm not interested in him now.

By the end of episode 2, I had totally forgot about the idol and I wondered how we got to this point where all these different things are happening: the idol guy, a cold & active case, the senior interns, looking for the cat, and the body swapping. It's alot haha

But Lee Jung Eun was the best part so whenever she was onscreen, everything was tolerable for me haha. Oh man when she was dancing at the police station, I laughed & smiled so much haha.

I did feel bad for Mi Jin cause I don't understand *why* she kept failing and then as if things weren't bad enough, this freaky situation happens to her and she has to deal with it all alone.

Maybe it's because I've seen The Beauty Inside but I did think it was especially sad that her parents didn't even for a nanosecond think *maybe* something is going on here and this stranger is telling the truth (especially when she mentioned the mole on the mom's butt). Their reaction is probably the most realistic but it still made me feel bad for Mi Jin.

Thanks for the recap @unit I loved episode one as the hints of the missing women were at a level I cold handle so was very disappointed when the killer turned up and suddenly we were in a different drama. Watching Mobster and Cinderella at the same time shows that you can have a great rom com without thriller elements. I am so upset as this was such a delightful watch. I hate having to fast forward when watching a drama as I lose the full emersion experience. The jury is out on whether I will continue to watch for the fun and fast forward through the dark elements or reluctantly drop.

I was anticipating some case-solving and partnerships given Ji-woong is a prosecutor but I would prefer unconnected cases with less heavy themes rather than that heavy overarching mystery. It is still episode 2 but it was hard to watch the raincoat killer and his axe . I can't imagine watching when the drama gets darker.
I appreciate it gives our leads a connection but I think it got tossed in the wrong drama. That is a romcom not a thriller movie. I got in anticipating Beauty Inside/Perfume type of story but we got Behind your Touch vibes instead.

I wasn't expecting the serial murderer plot, so it's a thriller, fantastic and rom-com drama? Not sure to like this mix.

For the FL, I wasn't really convinced by Lee Jung-Eun in this role. I hope it was the usual exaggeration and she will calm down the antics that Jung Eun-Ji didn't do. I wish they chose if they speak with satori or not.

I was happy to see Choi Jin-Hyuk back. He's good in this kind of role.

I like this. I like Jung Eunji (her character reminds me her in Relpy 1997, my fave pf the series) and Choi Jinhyuk (I like ot when an actor can easily swith back and forth as ML, 2 Ml, or even side character). The serial killer gives Tunnel vibes.

I was tripped over by the details right off the bat: How did Mi-jin manage to run off set in her hanbok? Did she have to pay for damages? And how did Ji-woong miss the opportunity to apply salve lovingly to her forehead? What a trope miss! After all, he's already caught her falling thrice...or more? 😂

I wasn't tripped over by the important detail: serial killers! Thank you Beanies. Forewarned is forearmed. And my forearms got quite a workout lifting up the remote to fast-forward right thru those scenes. Commiserations to Beanies who can't. Maybe I'll join you later, but atm now I'm loving the hjinks enough to push thru it.

Since it's also a rom-com, I wonder who Ji-woong would fall for? Not all the ages are specified, but I think he is maybe aged between both versions of the FL? I quite like Mi-jin, but it'd be a great twist if he was to fall for ajumma! Why not?

Tho since she seems almost a different personality at times as some Beanies have pointed out, then we may get the Mr Queen or Oh My Ghost type dilemma at the end. Boo. (Ironically, Choi Jin-hyuk lost out in Mr Queen.) So let's get a better. earlier merge between the personalities show.

PS Is anyone hoping we have a Supernatural Cat Lady instead of a Supernatural Cat Man who'll keep changing the show rules to ensure 💔? Yeah, I'm not still traumatized, not me.

PPS I just love our red-lipsticked mom. @attiton has hers and many other fun moments giffed on her wall if you want to catch them.

Who knew this show would also have a long, intense crime scene? O.O"

I'm particularly enthralled by Lee Jung Eun in this spunky, funny role. She was endearing and amazing throughout! Her joy at getting the job, her upbeat dancing, her swearing lol, her speedy biking. Everything was gold!

I feel like I haven't seen Choi Jin Hyuk in a while, especially in a romance so I'm looking forward to his swoony scenes. He totally aced the crime mystery and action scenes too!

Actually, I haven't seen all three leads in years. The single drama I've seen Jung Eun Ji in was Reply 1997 (2012 haha!). I didn't warm up to Mi Jin's character much. It was only when she had a personal, insightful moment in the bookstore that I felt like I could relate in a way.

The background music was varied and at times, jarring and loud. The contrasting tones in the last scene of EP 2 was also jarring. The scary hunt and violence was unexpected. Still, I was hooked when Ji Woong was chasing the killer.

I knew the victim wouldn't make it, being that she was the first one the viewers see and also because the culprit is a serial killer. It irked me that they dragged the scene and showed the multiple times she had almost escaped.

I hope the mystery and resolution is executed better in this show. The humor was pretty good. Cracked up at the mocking of the different hire types. One of them is a former cop so it would be cool to have a ragtag team doing some investigating.

Thank you for the 📅🌆 recap @Unit. Hope you have fun with this one. We promise to tag along for the ride serial killer et all. I love your Mr. Queen call out. While a supernatural element was always expected, especially with the cat in the drama title, the serial killer took me by surprise. I'm getting major Tunnel vibes.

Straight off - I love, love, love the FL. Mi-jin has my heart in both her avatars. I missed the fact that the cat belonged to her aunt Im Soon.

The falling in his arms trope never gets old. Just missing the accidental kiss part. 🤣🙃😍

The evil vampire from Heartbeat looks so different I had to google him to find out who he is. Uri Junho can't catch a break can he. As if naming random MLs after his "real" name was not enough even his on-screen names are being poached. 🙄 Tut, tut.

Anywho, this drama shows great promise as long as it is in the Prosecutor's office or night duty with Mi-jin. I can surely ffwd the serial killer scenes and hope the ToD catches him sooner than later.

Hwaiting!!

So after I don't know how many Lee Junho's, now it's an idol named Go Won?? I would laugh if it didn't also include King Land, drug use, probation, and forced enlistment. It's about time JYP Entertainment complains...

I was laughing so hard when she was sitting between her parents and started scratching her father's backs. The reaction didn't disappoint.

Well people don't want pure fluff, they don't want angst or too much drama and definitely not a serial killer/murder subplot in a rom-com especially too many genres at once. But i didn't come here expecting anything as such to me i am used to it so much it doesn't matter. Er besides the point. Anyway it's an okay show so far.

I'm following this, too. I love the ajummah-FL. I love the ML's casual-arrogant air mixed with discreet kindness. It's like he, too, is two persons?
Do you think he will fall in love with both versions of FL and feel horribly conflicted? Or will he treat them super differently, asking for advice with ajummah and being arrogant with the younger version?
I have giffed two moments on my wall.

"Our daughter does not have a pot belly."

I burst out laughing. It's hard not to like something this ridiculous. And I laughed and snorted all the way through the first episode.
Then came the second episode. The second half of the second episode tossed me out of this drama exactly the way the car slammed into something and tossed those papers and that clip...this feels like I signed up for something and am watching something else.

By the way, do we now have the cat from Heartbeat change colour and time travel? It even brought the resident evil vampire along with it.
My smile turned into a look of disbelief when I saw the names - Ko Won? King Land? Is this some sort of twisted tribute to the real-life bandmate of our resident adorable vampire? The creators of this drama certainly have a unique sense of humour.

Or should I say, twisted?

Drugs and probation? Please sign me up for the beanies who want to sue.

Also, the ML is leaving me quite unmoved. His umbrella has more personality, but of course, it stands no chance before our Prince Cha-min's companion.....

Is this going to go down as a great first episode of a bad drama?

Oh! I forgot to mention about Mi Jin's age. Why did people keep thinking she was older than she said she was? Does she look older and I'm just not seeing it?
She's 28, they round up to 30
The actress is like 30 (I think)

But the way she's treated in the show would have you thinking she's 45 and has no value left in anyway

Which I guess is suppose to be the point since when she turns into a 40 something, she's considered an awesome "senior"

When the reveal of an active murderer happened, it made me chuckle because I thought "wow, there really *is* a murderer in all shows nowadays, huh" haha

It doesn't bother me in particular but it's interesting that that is like checklist point haha

I assume both versions of Mi jin is gonna end up on the killer's radar, probably for different reasons.

Unit, thanks for the recap ! I have watched Ep1 . I do like the lead’s chemistry . I like the ahjumma persona .
Serial killer ⁉️😑🙄😵‍💫 **sigh**☹️
Magic Cat ⁉️😵‍💫😣 Cat Magic is currently at 0-2 on my scorecard, this might be a 3rd strike ?
I dunno , my luv for Jung Eun -Ji might not be enough for 16 episodes ⁉️ I thought 10-12 was the new thing.
I will try Ep2
Will there be a drunk karaoke scene ? (Looks for Drama Bingo Card)
Will Eun-Ji sing ? 🎤
K dramas should have characters sing , not in all shows obviously, but it works for some. Wishful hoping there.

The magic of this show is Lee Jung-eun. I've seen her play a lot of unlikeable adjummas on the small screen. This time, she's playing a peppy, emotional young woman and she's fantastic! She completely makes me believe that she's 28. (Also, Lee Jung-eun is, in real life, a couple years younger than I am, and that's insane. She played a lady who pretended credibly to have dementia in When the Camellia Blooms, and she was only 49! What.)

We are so spoiled when we watch these, let's be honest, ridiculous stories starring these amazing actors.

Great first two episodes! So glad this drama is being recapped 😀

@unit Thanks for the recaps! I like all three leads, but unfortunately Lee jung Eun's version of the FL is not sticking with me. I don't see anything wrong with her mannerisms, but it doesn't jibe with Eun Ji's version of the FL. The plot does have interesting things going on like the team of senior trainees can band together for mystery capers, but so far it is going down the regular route.
