I don't know before who is jinyoung but after i watch this movie i think jinyoung is talented, he act be like he is really life at the film, i'm very like him now, i hope jinyoung can pacticipate in other Movies or Dramas, but i hopefully much he can participate in K-Drama and gonna be Main Cast, ^^
The body swap idea has been done before ("Luck Key" comes to mind), so while the story is not really original, it's still a funny movie. The greatest part is the total character change of the fat and shy highschool loser after having absorbed the gangster boss' personality. Really shows that even a fat kid with thick rimmed glasses can be a total alpha male when he carries himself that way. Absolutely hilarous. The movie is kind of stupid and childish at times and it could have been 15 minutes shorter, but ultimately I enjoyed it and had quite a few good laughs.
The dude inside me was funny. I enjoyed the pace and the way they presented the story. I also love Jung Jin Young in this one and he proved to be a great actor.
However, the scenes with the mother and her ex boyfriend in the body of the young student, although laughable, were a bit off, as it wasn't easy to sympathize and actually imagine that the one talking was not the young student but the mafia boss. However, Jin Young played those scenes masterfully.
Overall, the movie was funny and it had a nice conclusion, as well as good performances.
So, seven out of ten.

The Dude In Me is a charming & hillarious film that is pure and spreads a great message. Surprisingly well directed, which also has some great action sequences. The storyline flowed very well with the events and the performances were impressive. A sweet and touching comedy from South Korea.
