My Girlfriend Is the Man- Episodes 3-4
The body swap is back, the love triangle’s brewing, and things are getting spicy.
We’re back, and Jieun has finally returned to her original body... for now. Episode 3 opens with Yunjae waking up next to his actual girlfriend, and for a brief, glorious moment, it feels like everything’s okay again. But this show doesn’t do calm for long. Before anyone can breathe, Jieun transforms again, mid-breakfast. One second she's sipping soy milk, the next she's back to being "Kim Jihun." Yunjae practically chokes on his cereal. Same, honestly.
Cue panic. Jieun’s body is now switching back and forth unpredictably, and neither of them knows what triggers it. Stress? Hormones? The moon? No one knows, but it’s chaos. And every time she wakes up, it’s a gamble on which body she’ll have. It’s romantic whiplash for Yunjae, who’s still trying to wrap his head around loving the same person in two very different packages.
Meanwhile, Minhyeok is clearly catching feelings, for "Jihun." After their pseudo-date in Episode 2, he's been extra flirty, texting, and showing up unannounced. Yunjae’s jealousy meter is off the charts, but he's trying (and mostly failing) to play it cool.
Things heat up when Minhyeok corners “Jihun” at work and flat-out asks if he’s single. Jieun panics and blurts out that she's “in a complicated relationship.” Not exactly a lie, but definitely not the full story.
Elsewhere, Yuri continues to be the wild card we didn’t know we needed. She’s now fully in Jieun’s corner and doubling down on operation “Get Your Man Back.” Her plan? Turn Jieun into the ultimate heartthrob... think smoldering glances, strategic layering, and just the right amount of wrist grab energy. Spoiler: Jieun fails miserably at all of it.
Yuna, still crushing hard on “Jihun,” complicates things further by staging a little matchmaking of her own. She invites “Jihun” to a family dinner, and when Yunjae finds out, it’s a whole mess. Tension. Glares. Passive-aggressive noodle passing.
In Episode 4, things hit a turning point when Yunjae finally snaps. Not out of anger, but out of frustration. He misses her, but every time he tries to connect, he’s thrown by the body swap. Jieun, tired of being treated like a stranger, storms out.
Cue the emotional gut-punch.
Later that night, Jieun gets caught in the rain, stuck in male form, and shows up at Yunjae’s place soaked and exhausted. He lets her in. They sit in silence. And then, in one of the softest, most heart-wrenching scenes so far, Yunjae wraps her in a towel and says, “I’m trying.”
It’s not a solution, but it’s a start.
Episode 4 ends with a flash of light and another body switch. But this time, Jieun looks directly at Yunjae and says, “Let’s stop hiding.”
He nods.
Because ready or not, they’re in this together now.
DramaZen's Opinion
Body swaps, emotional breakdowns, and one very jealous boyfriend... I’m living for this.
Episodes 3 and 4 took everything I loved about the first two and cranked it up. The back-and-forth body switching? Hilarious and stressful. Jieun waking up in different forms with zero warning is the perfect recipe for chaos. But what really hit this time was the emotional weight. Yunjae trying so hard to love her through the confusion? Gut-wrenching. And when he finally says, “I’m trying”, I almost lost it.
Minhyeok’s flirt game is dangerously on point, Yuri is still a chaotic legend, and Yuna getting caught up in her own crush just adds fuel to the fire. This show somehow balances weird sci-fi, heartfelt romance, and comedy without missing a beat. And that rainy doorstep scene? Rom-com gold.
Episodes 3 and 4 didn’t just keep me hooked, they made me care. Let’s go, episode 5.
