Loved it- But rewrote the end in my head

I loved everything about this drama. FL great! ML and SML both so handsome and talented. HOWEVER I cannot stress enough how aggravating the last few episodes were for me.
*spoiler* i cannot stand this abandonment trope that is too pervasive. It’s not romantic. I loved ML but if he abandoned me like he did FL for such stupid reasons there woulda been no coming back. Especially when the sexy SML was there and in love with her. ML had lots of money. No reason he had to disappear for years and cut her off. No. Just no. STOP it! I was really hoping she’d tell him to take a hike

True Beauty - Where Laughter Meets Heartfelt Lessons on Inner Beauty

"True Beauty" is a delightful K-Drama adaptation of a popular manhwa that I highly recommend diving into. This series brilliantly combines a well-crafted story, meaningful themes, and a dose of humor and romance, leaving you with a heartwarming smile after every episode.

The core strength of "True Beauty" lies in its well-written story, rooted in the manhwa's popularity. It doesn't merely scratch the surface of teenage insecurities and self-image; it delves deep into the true meaning of "true beauty." Through a cleverly crafted romantic comedy, it manages to convey profound truths about self-worth and acceptance while keeping you thoroughly entertained.

The characters in "True Beauty" are the heart and soul of the show. They're not only incredibly funny but also genuinely charming. Each character plays a significant role in both the storyline and their various relationships, whether they are close friends or more distant acquaintances. Their development throughout the series is a testament to the show's ability to balance humor and heart.

At its core, "True Beauty" resonates with the idea that true beauty isn't just skin deep. It beautifully illustrates how society often focuses on appearances before discovering the inner qualities that truly define a person. This message is conveyed through the trials and tribulations of the characters, making it relatable and thought-provoking.

"True Beauty" is a heartwarming and thoroughly enjoyable K-Drama that skillfully combines humor, romance, and meaningful life lessons. Its well-written story, endearing characters, and exploration of the concept of true beauty make it a must-watch for anyone seeking a blend of entertainment and depth in their drama choices. Prepare to be both entertained and enlightened as you journey through the ups and downs of self-discovery with these charming characters.

Not my favorite Drama but OK

Not my favorite Drama... but still good though. The story is good and it's very funny but all I can say that I have a cruch on Chan Eun Woo ! I don't understand people whom criticize his acting , I felt every emotions he felt and his smile just says everything...
Anyway, I also think that the end was a bit rushed, like the 2 last episodes came from ... nowhere ?? I really can't understand how they cut 2 years of their lives like that ... It was kind of wierd and not realistic AT ALL.
The FL was kind of hesitant with EVERY situation, like no personnality ??
But it was good though

overhyped but

I do realize that true beauty was really the talk for many months and I really refused to watch it because I felt that the plot was similar to my id is Gangnam beauty and I thought it'd be a bad copy.

now that I watch it I can safely say that it is overhyped, but it isn't as bad as some people are making it out to be. I'm trying to list down the stuff I hated about it would not be past 5.

its nothing different or out of the ordinary but it's still a good one if you want to watch something fun and light and dramatic.

compared to many shitty romcoms that are also overhyped this one can compete.

one of the things that was unforgivable was the lead actor's acting, I remember him in my id is Gangnam beauty and he was all the same cold singular expression. it was a bit boring for me to watch him act when other people were actually bringing something to the table like seojoon for example.

is a great history

The story is really interesting, and the real reflection is very seriously and important to society. The actors had made a wonderful job. It's a great recommendation who wants wach something with critics. I don't watch more one time because I think is just a serie to see once, and everything make sense in it. I hope you enjoy and reflect about it. enjoy it, and have a complete amazing experience. isn't the best k-drama I have watched in all my life, but is really good and if you can take a time to wach, it will be a really productive time

Dropped.

I read the webtoon and I had major issues with how the FL character has very very slow character growth that tends to null. I expected this show to have a faster growth , but was disappointed. Cha Eun Woo' s Suho comes across as very petty in the drama. The Suho in webtoon was supportive of FL in general and definitely supportive. The Suho in the drama kept requiring reaffirmation and support. It was just not my cup of tea.
Shoutout to the actor playing Seo Jun, he did a great job with that role and his chemistry with the FL was so great. Their fun-bits made the drama better for sure.
The drama Seo Jun definitely deserved the girl way more than Suho.

WHAT?? EXCUSE ME??? HULLO??? They are just gonna drop that on me and then end the episode??? and expect me to be okay??? to not have a completely crisis before i finish the last two episodes??? I dont think Ive had this visceral of a reaction to a kdrama since i watched Marry my Husband!!!
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk. I will now go finished the last two episodes and except the fact that this show will be added to my list of dramas that will change my brain chemistry forever, wish me the best of luck

ITS effing LIT! PLUS the sixth episode was wholesome.

kkkk tffff yo I'LL DIE OF CURIOSITY WAITING FOR THE WEEKLY EPISODES. ISTG the show started out a lil slow and picked up gears sooo effing fast and smooth!!!! I'm in love with moon ka young and cha eun woo ( nothing new) they've really done a good job and han seo joon toooooo! the story started out pretty much the same as most but it's actually taking a good turn although with the same love triangle kind. I love the main leads (sobs) I highly recommend this show to everyone. (more sobbing). the plot so far has taken many turns and is very interesting. LMFAO there are so many funny turns too.
BEWARE! you will be pulled into the whole drama, lost to reality for a while, sigh (more sobbing). I love how they've tested different looks and touches to eunwoo's tsundere character (as in the character is interesting), plus the sister brother drama is OTP. AND of course!! there's Han seo joon, lmfao his duo with his male buddies and eun woo is entertaining. Yoona is so fierce in this show unlike Gangnam beauty (loved her there too) she's the perfect friend one could ask for. Lmfao episode 6 was the best so farrrr. it was hilarious, cute, lovely and sob worthy. CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE. someONE leak the episodes.

pretty disappointing

i was looking forward to the drama adaption since i've read the webtoon from the start.

it became obvious this drama was just a cash grab the second i heard that they cast cha eun-woo for the main
male lead. i still gave it a try and sadly it was just as expected - lame storyline and bad slapstick humor with a few hot people thrown in there to mask the lack of good acting. i'm pretty surprised this drama got an 8+ rating, but i guess the drama might be more popular with a specific age group or people who never read the webtoon.

all in all they could've done a lot more with the whole two identity premise, but granted - the webtoon didnt do so either.

One of must watch Kdrama of 2020....Full Highschool Fun

I know drama is still going on and only 4 episodes have been aired, But here are my Views on this....
1. STORY
Story of an average looking girl(in her thoughts) that if she is beautiful on then people will give her attention and
affection is not something new that we haven't seen before in K-dramas but this has a twist. without giving any spoilers It is an amazing joyride with lots of emotions and funny acts and so far I have seen development of every character with humor and struggle emotions at the same time.

2.CAST and ACTING
TBH this is my Fav cast Moon Ga Young, Cha Eun Woo and Park Yoo Na. Acting skills of Moon Ga Young as a teenage girl like this has never seen before, With so much fun and cute scenes makes this drama rewatchable a 100 times.

Overall.
This is one of the must watch drama of 2020 , It has Comedy(90%) Drama, Romance,Fun a wholesome Highschool fun vibe
