Boy and Girl is one of the most predictable, unoriginal, and one of the poorest acted drama that I have watched to date. Somehow I was still drawn to it and watched it straight through marathon style.
What I liked was that the characters had no internal monologues, so they simply said everything out loud. Although it was unoriginal, unlike any other drama the female lead ping ponged between guys so much you could just assume she was dating both. I have never seen a drama where everyone was accepting of the female lead switching guys like underwear, her parents were even cool with it!
What I didn’t like was the lack of hot guys for starters. The little brother was hot but his scenes were way too few. The whole thing was really acted poorly and it was either over acted or under acted by everyone except Chou Genie. Pat Wu was so bad at crying I was rolling on my bed laughing! Genie was actually really good and was cute as a boy (they should have kept that going). The unoriginality comes from the writers employing every concept that you have seen in a drama to date (I wont spoil the story) except amnesia. Because I have already seen the gender bending, becoming a princess, waiting on love themed stories I could literally tell what was coming. In that aspect the writers wrote everything the way you would anticipate the story to go.
There was a lot of comedy in the beginning and to be very honest this is really 3 dramas rolled into 1. This drama would have turned out way better if they cut it after 6 episodes, stuck to one theme and killed all the love longing overacted romantic parts. All in all the ending is good, no surprises and if you watch the intro you can guess what is going to happen through the whole drama. I wouldn’t say I wasted my time because it was entertaining to pause it, tell the characters what they were going to do/say and then watch them do it. I felt like I was the drama god! read more

I am seeing consistent comments from peeps that watched this. I am on epi 6 & it is going to take me 4-ever to finish this. But, I have to finish it b/c I can't leave drama's undone. It kills me not to finish the story even if I know what is coming; especially b/c I know what is coming, I have to have visual confirmation. My OCD sux!

I found the main female lead really annoying....so indecisive!!! Just make up your mind and stick to it!
I felt soooo bad for the 2nd male lead....I actually liked him better than the main male lead....

I wasn't entirely invested in the first place but I got beyond bored once it hit 16 episodes. You just felt like a ping pong ball the same things back and forth back and forth through every episode. The final episode was creative however.

The story is good but the acting is pretty average and there's no chemistry between leads...
