Seojun x Su Ho for THE WIN!!! (I'm not okay, I promise.)

I really like the concept/premise of this story and the characters, but good lord. The second half of this was so bad. It started playing it too safe, by dragging the romance all over, not letting Jugyeoung accept herself, etc... but isn't the entire point of the show to combat social problems and critique it? But okay, "True Beauty". Also Seojun and Su Ho would've genuinely been better in a relationship then as enemies. I also just dislike the love triangle trope in general. Jugyeoung was cool though; I felt bad for her, but also rooted for her despite everything.

Also this was so much better than the original manhwa. Like, it fixed majority of the issues (apart from the second half of the show taking a nosedive). Despite the issues, I still really enjoyed watching this.
