YES!!!!! One of the bestiest!
Secret Garden is often on classic Kdrama "must see" lists. And for good reason. It's fucking hilarious and is an alternative to the typical Kdrama! (Strong female leading role and gender related pondering!!) But, there is still plenty of the push and pull element that is soooo delicious!
Released in 2010, it has aged very well (just like the lead male actor, Hyun Bin...woof). Uhhh, except for those cell phones yo. And maybe the cars. Oooo Oooo, and the men's hairstyles. They kinda all have the side bang drama going on (Justin Bieberesque), or the budding jazzy bitch look (the little extra bird lift on top that black grandmas have here stateside).
Here's the rundown (without fuckin' up y'all with too many spoilers) :
-Korean Voodoo body/gender switch between main characters
-Hilarious acting /scripting /situations
-Female lead is a stunt woman (FUCK YEAH!!)
-Push /Pull dynamic is perfected in this drama
-The mother. The main male lead's mother is perhaps one of the most trill heifers ever. She is mean as shit.
-Highlighted by the domineering mother, is Korea's insistence on respect for elders (and overall age related pecking order in all things).
-It's just fun as hell.
AND MOST IMPORTANT THING: The tracksuit. If you need one reason to watch this shit, let it be the tracksuit.

I mean, WTF!? It's sequenced!
You can watch Secret Garden (시크릿 가든) on Rakuten VIKI. And...as an extra bonus, select "Learn Mode" to learn some Korean while you watch!
On to the next one ladies (and whoever else)...
