[DR] Secret Garden ~ Episodes 7-10

Finally getting a chance to catch up on SG. :)

So obviously, by this point, Joo won's Claustrophobia is pretty evident.

So they're back from Jeju and Joo won's Mom is a (fill in the blank). But on the bright side, Joo won is finally happy that they switced bodies so he could take his mom's harsh words. Aww...he's protecting Ra Im, but she tells him that his words have been harsher. However, he keeps saying that she never "thinks" about him...I'm assuming he's talking about his status/position.

The magical veil is actually kind of confusing to me. I mean, it's good that we get to see how they would look in their own bodies every once in a while, but I think it would be better to go back to the last scene and show how different they would've reacted.

I feel like Joo won's secretary is the biggest victim here. He has to endure Joowon's threats and then face a nice Ra Im.
And Byuntae Joo won's house code is his ideal body (36-24-34). And so sweet of Ra Im (in Joowon's body) to cook for Oska (this is her advantage in the body swap).
That Tae Ssun guy sure is a mystery (a cute mystery) that will later be solved by Seul after a scary Plaigerism scandal for poor Wooyoung (in which Seul has to suffer accusations as well).
*Which brings me to wonder, if Jaebeom (2PM) had played this role, how would it have turned out?

Now that Joo won and Ra Im have to adjust to living each other's life, they have to start going to work and interacing with "obstacles". Personally, I think Joo won (in Ra Im's body) acts funny around the other action school members but it was pretty low of him to use the swap to get rid of his "competition", in other words Ra Im's Director. The poor guy gets so confused when he recieves the nice text messages from Ra Im, since they still use their own phones, and of course when they switch back and Ra Im's clueless about his feelings. :(
It was pretty hilarious when Ra Im changed Joo won's signature, which becomes a big problem for Director Park (on whom Ra Im can "step on" as much as she wants as Joo won had given her permission) because he had just perfected Joo won's signature. What's more is that she made it really girly with a heart.

What's more hilarious is the situation that Ra Im puts Joowon's body in:

And the slight room swap mishap:

And I love how all four main characters in some way use some form of jealousy whether they're the ones doing it or being affcted by it.

And Joowon's sweet talk about wanting to have put more money into his taxes if he had known that it was raising Ra Im was his moment of sincerety. :)

Ahh, and then Joowon goes to meet his mother (in Ra Im's body), where he/she is offered money to leave "Joowon", which he accepts and spends all in the same day, but only after giving his mother a good taste of what is not Ra Im's character (in other words, acting classy instead of apoligizing like she would've).

Then he goes to meet his "doctor" (Lee) and asks her if she's been offered money before to which leads me to think that they must've had some sort of relationship. O_O And she also tells "Ra Im" that she should leave Joowon because he is incapable of protecting her...right to his face/soul.

On the other hand, Ra I'm (in Joowon's body) gets into a fight for which she/he gets arrested and then is told by Joo won (in Ra Im's body) that he isn't going to get "himself" out. Ironically as He walks out (into the rain), they happen to switch their bodies back! lol. Now he's locked himself in. And as punishment for earlier, Ra m also decides that Joowon shouldn't be let out...so she leaves.

After being bailed he goes o Ra Im's house expecting a reflection on her actions which ends with:

Since they haven't switched their phones back yet, Ra Im sees the pictures of her Joowon took from her locker. And Joo won sees the Oaska socks that Ra Im wore...on his feet. X] And finds out that she changed his house code to Woo Young's birthdate.

Then Oska's whole plaigerism thing happens and he goes to blame Seul but (only the viewers know this) it turns out that one of her workers accidently leaked his song.

And it turns out that Joowon's younger sister takes a liking to Ra Im's director and also spills the beans on her mother's plans and Joo won's previous actions.

Then, Ra Im goes to see Oska's performance, ends up on  date with him and tries to cheer him up:

The most memorable part was when Ra Im makes her Little Mermaid comment saying that unlike the girl, she's not in love with "him" TT_TT ... Joo Won is left speechless.

Episode 10 tries to show Ra Im and Joowon trying to put everything back in place. In other words, Ra Im goes back to being overly formal and practicing her butt off and Joowon goes back to being a rich jerk and thinking of Ra Im all day long. ;)

And does this kid keep getting hotter by the episode or what:

Joo won and Woo young act like little kids stealing each others toys but of course they must have benefits. Joowon, being his stubborn self keeps showing up at the action school...and:

[BTW, she looks so cute in that outfit ^^]

And then he tries be one of her kind (x]): 

The funniest part of his tactics was when he was supposed to be shot down. He looked at everyone else lying down and then walks over to someone and lies down on top of the poor guy. -_-

After shooting, they all go out for a meal and drinks. And since Joowon is sitting in front of his rival, they decide to have a friendly competition of who can get drunk faster. and somehow end up at Ra Im's house. Where, in the morning, Wooyoung shows up to take her away, on another date:

I just might want to throw away my earlier assumption of Woo young not having any feelings whatsoever for Ra Im because he seems to be "fond" of her...but it's still a bit soon to tell.

Half way through the drama, only 10 episodes left! :(

Prepare to see Joowon be a son of jerk(face) in the next episode.
