I watched this drama long back, i think thid was the 2nd or 3rd kdrama i ever watched. However i remember really enjoying it and the plot twists were really nice. The actors including the side actors and supporting role carried out their parts very nicely. This drama touched on many important topics as well.
However, the ending left me a little unsatisfied and felt rushed. The ending part about the love triangle could have been written a bit differently.
An orphan replaces her twin sister at a city school after being bullied in the village where she lived, real problems begin when the bully is transferred to her new school. An entertaining series but characters lack any real depth, I personally didn't mind the ending but it seems to annoy a lot of people. I think as even though it left a lot of questions unanswered that is part of growing up, and the answers will come in time.

It's literally so good this kdrama is so catchy and the cast is so talented. The chemistry between the girl protagonist and the barely 2nd lead is extraordinary they fit so good together and make each-other happy. They never judged each other and always accepted one another.
How would you react if your girlfriend started behaving differently, and one day you realize that she has been replaced by her twin sister? This is a possible scenario in the Korean high-school drama Who Are You? Or should we replace the lame title and call it Gagnam Mean Girls?
It is a typical body-swap story, just that no magic is needed. This kind of story is often comedic, but there are a few dark ones. This one has such relentless bullying, misery, and oppression that you'll never want to go back to school again.
There is also a tiny bit of romance, and a mystery, so avoid spoilers at all costs.
It can be good to know that there are other shows with similar names: School 2013, School 2017, and School 2021, that have a similar setting but different characters.
Seven years may not seem much, but with the rapid development of Asian TV, this show already feels old. The visuals have not aged well, and the editing is not the tightest, giving it a slower tempo than the super-polished shows of 2022. Yet it is short, and every episode moves the plot forward, without dragging things out too much.
If you have watched any asian high-school drama, you may know which tropes to expect, what forms the bullying will take etc. Who Are You still has some ideas of its own. The point of a body-switch story is to see a person taking up a new role in a new environment. Here it also has to be done without getting discovered.
Both sisters are played by the same actress, so don't expect them to be seen together often. They are so lost and pitiful alone, but their indirect interaction through flashbacks and diaries etc. Has more chemistry than the romance story. If they could only team up, they would take over the world.
I wonder if the theme song Reset is even more popular than the TV show.

I usually don't watch K dramas, some things I found great in the show how the main actress found herself and stood up to the people who wronged her I mean it's a good message but still they didn't stood up to the purpose of delivering a drama which you feel like was actually good it was okay but this is not the only purpose of a drama u needed to at least explain the things along the way ending, well was really annoying and confusing I hated it that's all I have to say about it.
