Branding in Seongsu (2024)

great for tuning out the real world

i had so much fun watching this show! a romp of a genderbent-mystery-thriller workplace comedy. overall, it’s fast-paced and charming, with great chemistry between the leads and a couple surprisingly steamy kisses. it also covers some refreshingly progressive ground through the clients the agency takes on, among other elements. is the plot messy/rushed at times? yes. tonally uneven? sure. do i care? absolutely not! the show has a self-awareness of its more ridiculous aspects that makes even the pitfalls seem endearing. the leads have great chemistry and i came to adore many of the side characters. the songs at the end of each episode are all bangers. the perfect thing to watch when you just want to tune out the real world and be taken along for the ride.

Just give it a try !

I almost dropped at the first episode because I didn't read the synopsis well and thought that there was a...like HUGE age gap. Anyway, I still don't know how old are the characters, I forgot but it's not that bothersome. This is for the ones who are hesitating to watch this show... just watch it.
At first, you might think that it focuses too much on the jobs of the male leads, well it annoyed me at the beginning, but then I realized that it is interesting, and gives you an overview of what's going on behind products, advertisement, etc... This side of the show has an actual link with the plot which keeps it captivating.

The "fantasy" side of the show: the fact that they swapped their bodies, was an idea that involved a big risk: that the acting wouldn't be on point. That's why I left 9 stars for the acting because it was very nice but Na eun character in Eun Ho's body could've been more pronounced. Like... He was cold but not as cold as the original ... Anyway who am I to judge? I'm not an actor and I think that the role is very challenging but overall they are doing such a great job! Don't worry the show is still good
And about the plot, it is very satisfying.
I won't say more, otherwise, I would spoil something so I'll just let you watch it, don't drop it too soon(like, the first 6 episodes, btw they are 30 minutes long) I guarantee that it will get interesting!

ITS A HIDDEN GEM!

Its a great K - Drama and needs more exposure. I honestly loved the cast's acting. Lomon has played the character very nicely, or should I say AMAZINGLY! I am loving his acting so much, that my appreciation for him is filled up to the brim and its overflowing. This drama should be seen at all cost. I am 100% recommending it . I absolutely do not have any idea why it isn't popular ? I guess people tend to like watching similar stories like My demon ( don't come at me, you know its true ) rather than this, which has a very different concept and it keep you interested. I finished the episodes in one go and I'm still waiting for more . Also , the reason why I gave 9 /10 in cast is because I think the 2nd Male lead's acting can be a little better, like only a true person whose been watching K-dramas for a lot of time can see what I'm trying to talk about. Come to think of it, you might wonder why I gave 10/10 in music when it contains like very small amount of music? The reason is because the tune in the beginning of the show and when it continues on scenes - I LOVE that tune , like its the vibe it gives and a tune that I am feeling very satisfied to. All in all , its a very nice show, after watching some shows, it has given me that zest that I was trying to find. So , from my side its a 100% ? . Go and watch it as soon as possible.

Not great

I watched all 24 episodes. The first few episodes were horrible. The writing is just shit, I mean the acting was okay, and I've seen both main leads in different dramas with much better acting, so their acting is not the problem. There are too many filler episodes even if its just 30 minutes, there's nothing interesting and gets tiring and almost repetitive. Nothing happens for a while. Everything was all over the place in the beginning. Honestly, I only watched because the dramas I'm currently watching have yet to release a new episode. Waiting for each episode to come out its just not worth it for this drama. I guess you could use this as a filler drama to watch in one go when bored but don't expect much. I don't understand why there are so many reviews that were 7 stars and above. The comedic aspect was good especially the underdog team. The last episode was rushed. The "revenge" was not satisfactory at all and only lasted like 10 minutes if the last episode. The thing I probably only liked was the very very late character development of Kang Na Eon. I never like the character of So Eun Ho in the beginning either, he was too childlike. So his character development or "reveal" was good to. The soul switch just made everything a lot more complicated and just badly written. There could've been so many other ways to get the two main leads to meet without the soul switch. It was just unnecessary. I also didn't like the large time skip one one year, it makes sense why So Eun Ho wanted a break but one year is crazy. I also didn't like 2nd fml character development or how they became friends again so quickly. There was not much reconciliation or anything. Like she apologised once and then after the time skip they're best friends again. It just felt unnatural. I'm glad they're friends again but the way her character was written was mid. Overall, the story was mid and could've been much better.

Love this drama, entertaining, great chemistry, good actors

I love this drama, entertaining, great chemistry, good cast
- Na Eon and Eun Ho has great chemistry
- I love the Branding Marketing topics nila nakaka relate ako?
- Ang cute at handsome ni Eun Ho as in haha, Bagay sya mapa Romantic Comedy or Action Triller, hope to see him more in this type of drama?
- The best yung Underdog team Rex, Jenny, Young Ae, eun ho
- I like how Lomon(Eun Ho) is great in portraying his character here well done mapa childish man or as Na Eon soul.
- Pero kapag nakay Eun Ho yung soul ni Na Eon which is mataray naiinis ako sa ugali minsan ni Na Eon kahit nasa katawan sya ni Eun Ho. I like pano mag act c Lomon as Na Eon.
- I really like Eun Ho personality kahit nong nasa original katawan or kahit nasa katawan sya ni Na Eon maganda personality nya and I like pano mag act c (Kim Ji Eun) as EUn Ho which is hindi nakakainis pag soul ni Eun Ho nasa katawan nya while nakakainis nmn kapag c Na Eon soul?.
- They both nail it. I like their actings Eun Ho and Na Eon. ?
- Eun Ho was so enthusiastic pero tinatago nya yung pain at puot for 5 years dala dala nya ?.
- I like how yung mga nakakainis na character eh nakakainis rin talga?.

what I don't much like is:
- sayang revenge plot ni Eun Ho sorry na word lang yung need pala? Sayang kase kung nagawa ng tama ang nice sana
- ang ikli kase ng revenge plot na dala ng character nya siguru dahil konti lang din episodes ng drama or dapat episode 15 palang inintroduce na yung revenge
- halos walang character development c Na Eon or medyo weak lng pagka introduce...
- ang konti ng episodes huhu I want more

O mundo de Branding in Seongsu

"Branding in Seongsu" encerra sua trajetória como uma farofa épica, tecida com elementos de mistério, suspense, vingança, negócios, comédia, romance e até mesmo trocas de almas.

A narrativa nos imerge no intrigante mundo do marketing, onde uma gerente workaholic, um estagiário pacifista, e uma equipe de excluídos se unem formando uma aliança poderosa. Entre os personagens, destaca-se a presença marcante da "amiga falciane", uma chefe desprovida de escrúpulos, e um amor não correspondido que adiciona uma camada adicional de complexidade emocional.

Contudo, o enredo aparentemente simples se revela repleto de reviravoltas, incluindo um homicídio, uma tentativa de assassinato e o sobrenatural fenômeno da troca de almas entre a gerente workaholic e o estagiário pacifista.

Inicialmente atraída pela presença cativante do ator Park Lemon, ao longo da trama, os eventos e a dinâmica da equipe dos excluídos despertaram minha crescente curiosidade. Eles conseguiram quebrar o gelo nos momentos de tensão, proporcionando momentos hilários que aliviavam o clima pesado da narrativa.

Com episódios de 30 minutos, "Branding in Seongsu" oferece uma experiência completa, levando o espectador a rir, torcer, se encantar e até mesmo chorar. Apesar de não ser isento de falhas, é inegável que o dorama proporciona um entretenimento satisfatório.

Em suma, "Branding in Seongsu" não é uma obra perfeita, mas certamente vale a pena como uma fonte de bom entretenimento.

Un bel thriller romantico!

Un dramma che score velocemente con una storia abbastanza intrigante tra thriller e romanticismo con un po' di fantasy che non guasta.
La storia racconta di una sprezzante e forte donna che vuole raggiungere i suoi obiettivi e che sembra non guardi in faccia nessuno, ma poi c'è un risvolto diverso e si vedrà la sua vera natura. Poi c'è lui che sembra un semplice ragazzo imbranato ma così non sarà.La storia si svolge tra misteri e un pizzico di fantasy con scambio di anime e tutto ciò che comporta.
I risvolti thriller tiene incollati allo schermo e la storia romantica è adorabile.
Un dramma un po' insolito ma davvero carino!

a average thriller drama which is ruined by romance

The first few episodes was very hard to watch as the writing and acting both seemed sloppy and forced.i almost dropped the drama but because i was curious about the culprit behind the bunny mask i finished the drama. The revelation of the mastermind was actually pretty predictable. However the thriller aspect of the drama was good but omg the romance? why? i want to ask the kdrama writers if it's really necessary to have romance in their drama.Romance actually ruined it for me . The progression of the relationship between the leads didn't make much sense to me.
The side characters and villains are two dimensional.Also the character growth of the fl lead and ml's confession both was done so poorly and in a lackluster way.
The drama could have been a good thriller but the writers ruined it with bad writing.

Most reduclous shit only getting rating for looks

Most of people rated this drama for there looks ML mostly because he is cool and fL is double cool

After body swap our intern working in company like a CEO because he is ML
Even if he is just a intern who should follow order and run errends now he can act as BOSS and do anything he likes because he has FL soul in him make SENSE ?
SINCE ML is so cool he can even comand his boss anytime he want and insult anyone he want
AND people here are praising this drama which even suck all fun of body swap
There is no displince in OFFICE how intern treat there senior how you should talk formal language in office to your seniors ?
Boring office and some sexual attraction not love chemistry, just physical attraction because ML and FL are north and south in there emotion understanding of each other.
