Lee Su Ho is an attractive and handsome boy who appears cold because of his dark past but is actually very caring. They grow when they meet each other, share their secrets and find love with each other, but can Su Ho make Ju Gyeong find her true beauty?

I haven’t watched True Ending yet but just from watching the trailer, I realized they were kinda similar. The concept is a high school girl that upset about her looks, so they get a makeover.

the plot surrounding the main leads is almost identical. The love triangle, the high production quality, the excellent actors are all similarities as well.

Both were webtoons first. Both have bright cinematography and are light hearted

Both are funny and have romance. True Beauty is more focused on romance though.

Both have elements of high school, although True Beauty is set in a high school whereas it's a side plot in Backstreet Rookie

The ML in Backstreet Rookie is much nicer to the FL than the ML in True Beauty is to the FL.

Both have funny side characters

Both show sibling relationships and friendships

Not an ugly turn beauty but beauty turn boyish. Handsome guy? Comedy? School life u dream of? This is what u looking for. Everybody acting is on point, comedy on point. A start of remake to many country

Both female leads have self esteem issues and skin problems on their faces. Both male leads are handsome and fall for the FLs despite their appearances.

Both are romance dramas set in high school.

+ love triangles with intense rivalry between ML and SML
+ second lead syndrome
+ tragic friends-to-enemies backstory (btw FL and ML in OS, btw ML & SML in TB)
+ FL is a more reserved character who doesn't want attention
