The best I could get from translating the Baidu synopsis was: Over the years, the life of the hero Owen has been mired in mourning his brother, in pain unable to extricate himself. Until one day, in their business Yuwen Entertainment Company when he encounters the messenger, Bare. Bare is not only cute, but he also resembles Owen's brother. His heart can't help but to fall in love with him. With time, the thoughts of the love for his brother will slowly shift to Bare's "body".

The second guy is meant to be the security guard, the one who also keeps getting protective over him, but never stays around for too long. I updated the synopsis to give a "larger" view over the plot. This seems more like a melodrama about lonely people.

I saw the trailer called soul swap. It's not going to be the soul exchange right? I don't like it when the girl become boys vice versa. Because it definitely will become bg

[IMOmusings]

Hmm....so is it like...story starts of with focus on courier dude, but the actual story starts with the man who lost his brother (lonely soul #1), courier dude (lonely soul #2), security guard (lonely soul #3), the guy with unhappy family (lonely soul #4) and the girl who wants to sing (lonely soul #5)?....that's an awful lot of swapping O_O

[Guest]

This new series sounds and looks interesting. What is the name of the main actors and their real age, please?

[lemsaine]

I got a bad feeling about it... the guy die but the soul swap with the girl... then the boyfriend and the girl end up together. It' s actually not a bl drama but bg drama

But, this is only my thought. If i'm wrong, someone please tell me. I really hope that i'm wrong...

I just wish a beautiful ending of a bl drama...

[danmei]

luckily, that particular clip was just a flashback to the brother's death (I mean, that's still a sad thing)

it's crying clip from the trailer that worries me, since the background in the scene seems different, it would be really horrible if he lost him the same way he lost his brother

but I kind of have a bad feeling about it, since the show is called SWAP :/

I feel like maybe this is the response to the ban, like in a way they're trying to make bl happen even if they have to do a 'swap' like this but I still don't like it

also, ep.1 has been subbed

[lolalarue]

Whoa. I don't know if its the version I saw but the dubbing was truly atrocious and the sound was really messed up. There were times when I couldn't hear voices because the music was drowning them out. 

The brunette/blonde/dyed haired friend of the girl with long hair is a girl right? So this is yuri as well? (is that the right word?).
