Just feel good and Nothing complicated of sorts

Okay first of all this story was one of those amazing stories that will leave no residue in your mind ..I mean you just watch it .. feel peace in your mind and that's all , you go back to your normal self ..not like those frustrating plots that keep going in loops in your brain for hours after watching it.
The plot has incredible momentum as a lot of things happening (plus past incident/forgotten relationship is also revisited) but nothing seems overwhelming of the sorts as entire thing was in perfect harmony.
The leads actors were amazing they really did great with playing the exchange soul thing. Though there wasn't much romance but the thrilling comedy filled the gaps . Ending sound track was lovely .. overall a good pick for your weekend evening.

The most selfish bitch gets the most loyal guy

The most obnoxious FL I've ever seen. I have nothing against the old "sparks rekindle" phenomenon, but I hate boys/girls who abuse their partner’s kindness just to check if he/she is still into them. A little spoiler here, just so I can curse her to hell. Thank you!

The ML was a stupid one-woman man. I’m calling him stupid because he chose the worst woman to be one with. This girl dated him briefly during their school days but left him because of her own domestic issues. They meet again in college, but she’s with another guy who doesn’t seem too serious about her (I must say, the rugby captain treated her the best she deserved). Alright, she prioritizes her new, popular boyfriend, and the ML receives a flat rejection.

Years later, they meet again. This time, she’s single, and the ML has a sweet girlfriend. This b*tch messes with his head again, which results in his breakup and a serious injury that impacts his career badly. Anyhow, they start dating, and the ML faces a lot of job rejections—he’s going through a rough patch. At this point, a normal partner would support his mood swings. Why? Because that’s what partners are for—especially if someone has acted like a human shield for you. There’s no way I’d leave a man like that alone in his hardships. But this piece-of-crap FL tells him she's been offered a job in Belgium. And if that wasn’t enough, she picks the first misunderstanding to dump him and grab the job offer. Selfish pro max. She could have asked him to wait, but no.

I mean, okay, he let his frustration get the best of him and said some nonsense, but there was absolutely no need for her to react in such a bizarre way. She even compared him to her shthole dad. Sorry, btch! You’re the one who's like your dad—the same shitty DNA. Years later, she’s back with her wedding invite (RIP to the poor guy she’s marrying—she might just leave him for the next job offer in LA, who knows).

Anyways I am glad the poor ML didn't end up with this horrible woman .. thank you !! script writer.

PS: My frustration is just for the character; no hate to Park Bo Young (I love her to the moon and back).

Kim Young Kwang was amazing—his smile kept spreading warmth throughout the movie; otherwise, I wouldn’t have watched this crap at all.

The chemistry was pathetic, but that’s because it was written that way. It’s not the actors’ fault; it was just how the plot demanded it.

Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this movie. There’s already enough chaos in people’s relationships; why watch something that further weakens your faith in true love?

Drop it. Don’t watch it.

Minimum dialogue maximum feeling

Song joong ki and park bo young two extremely amazing artists ..but we have to keep in mind this movie released in 2012 when they were not the prominent names in the korean industry. I am not very impressed with the over all story telling but the performance delivered by the artists was so refined that for a moment I forgot about its lame plot. Werewolf turning human and vice-versa, nothing ne about it right?? But song joong ki's character of werewolf had no dialogues either .. now imagine a psychological love story with ML as werewolf with no dialogues, yeah you got my point. He has to deliver human emotions through wolf body language while making no sound ( no dialogue). His expression his movements were so impactful. the movie has no kissing scenes still it was so damn romantic. There were few twists which added more depth and substance to the story ..like the researcher explaining the werewolf/wolfs have single mating partner for the lifetime emphasising at what extend he is attached to FL ..secondly his turning to a beast to protect the FL ... Lastly the scene when FL returns after 40-45 years and finds him waiting for her in the same room just because she asked him to wait .. honestly I cried like a river worth of tears while watching that scene. YOU KNOW IT'S EASY TO HANDLE BETRAYALS WITH SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS RAGE AND ANGER BUT WHEN WE RECIEVE OVERWHELMING LOVE AND LOYALTY WE OFTEN LEFT WITH A QUESTION " WHAT DID I EVER DO SO GOOD TO DESERVE SOMEONE LIKE HIM/HER"?
Park bo young's character is timid to 'i can speak ever now and then. Both have a very good chemistry.

The cinematography has horrible .. I don't know if they hired a light man in the crew .. everything looked so dull. Background music was just so so ..


Take my advice watch it for the actors and their performance.

Utterly charming even with all the overacting and pathetic print

This was a 2004 release, and watching this movie felt like taking a glimpse into South Korean society in the past—when it was less about plastic surgeries and designer brands, and more about their reserved culture. The makeup was abysmal, with all that chalky, single-tone foundation and dusty bubblegum-pink blushes. I’m certain there were no such things as acting classes back then, judging by their overacting. Yet, still... still, there's something about the love stories from that era that makes our hearts skip a beat every now and then. The leads don’t kiss readily, they don’t smooch, but viewers will get goosebumps just at the sight of them holding hands—if you know what I mean.

Moving on, the plot wasn’t something you haven’t already seen; it’s quite overused by today’s standards. The story was cute, revolving around a high school girl and a handsome college guy. The love story began with fights, frustration, irritation, and those classic "wait till I kill you" vibes, which soon blossomed into a sweet friendship and eventually into love.

Background music was BOMB

The plot was silly, the acting was atrocious, but for some reason, I enjoyed it immensely. I found myself laughing at their absurd chases and feeling butterflies whenever they came close. Honestly, what more could you ask for?

I cried even when I already knew he would die ...

I already received a spoiler-packed review of this movie from my brother before watching it, so I knew Byeon Woo-seok’s character would die in the end. Still, somehow, I couldn't control my tears when the truth about his death unfolded in the film. Honestly, I don't know what was better—knowing about his death and getting a clear conclusion after 15 years, or just believing he was alive somewhere, living a selfish life after abandoning her. If I were in her place, I would have chosen the latter. I don’t need closure; I would have preferred to live in a bubble, thinking he was selfish, that he was a jerk... but at least he was still breathing. That would be enough for me.

After all, school romances rarely turn into something serious. So, this ending wasn’t my favorite. But we know that not all stories end in a “happily ever after,” right?

The cast was amazing—Woo-seok looked so charming, as always. The female lead (from My Demon) was beautiful; her character was cheerful and funny, totally endearing.

I felt the background music was a bit different from the usual—really not my taste. But since the cinematography and soundtrack were crafted to reflect the 1999 era, I suppose we can overlook that.

Overall, it’s a good movie for a one-time watch; you can definitely give it a try.

A nice rom-com with strong msg that every girl needs to watch

This show tackles various complex themes through divorce cases, spotlighting issues that impact women, such as self-respect, career struggles, single motherhood, alimony, and child support. The plot delves into how women are often treated as "options" throughout different life stages: wives and daughters are abandoned for younger mistresses, granddaughters are overshadowed by potential grandsons, and girlfriends are deceived financially for selfish gains. The narrative doesn’t shy away from hard-hitting issues—like a woman being unfairly shamed after a pregnancy resulting from assault, or a talented, successful woman being harassed by her insecure husband, who can’t handle her achievements.

Story Overview:

The show is a feel-good office rom-com centered around a law firm founded by two best friends. Our main male lead (ML) struggles with insomnia, while the parallel male lead (PML) is rekindling his old flame after her recent divorce. The plot flows at a comfortable pace—not too fast, not too slow—and mixes in plenty of comedy with well-matched chemistry between the leads.

Along the way, the insomniac ML finds that his cure just might be the company of the female lead (FL). Meanwhile, the FL’s elder sister happens to be the high school crush of our PML.



Casyt is amazing..there are so many actors and all of them were extremely good.
the Actor playing ML is good looking but his acting is what caught my attention, I have seen very less actors who can hold one expression for so long ..wow .. moreover his contrast between tyrant boss and timid bf was amazing. I genuinely loved his performance.


The actress playing FL is so cute ..her pleasant,cheerful and not very sexy appearance is very apt for this role .. her acting was good as well. other female characters parallel female lead, the vamp and office bestie were also good.. especially the office bestie, she is gorgeous. The ML's mom was love.

The ending was not up my taste .. I didn't like the idea that ML was waiting for like atleast 7 years just to get married ( judging by the kid age) .. I believe in women empowerment but not like this .. he supports him so much getting married wouldnt have hurt her career as for matter there is no such prejudice in law field



Overall a good drama worth watching

Didn't want this night to come to an end ...

About the story
The drama was good ..like real good. . the plot was interesting.. good paced less cliche .. dialogues/ script were to the point .. there is balanced amount of suspence , mystery , chase ,action and romance .


About the cast
The ML (Jesse ren) was amazing I have seen him in support role in a few dramas but this was my first time watching him as lead ... And he did commendable job ... He is in such a great shape .. his act was also good and his kissing scenes were bomb
. 💣💣💣 ..HE IS THE ONLY ACTOR I HAVE SEEN WHO USES HIS TONGUE WHILE KISSING ONSCREEN Like moving it all the way inside the co actress mouth 😆😆😆 (or tell me they were dating for real)
FL is such a cutie .. I must say she is one of the most gorgeous girls I have seen in Cdramas far far better than a lot cdrama actresses who look excessively plastic and can't act at all. Her acting was also good the only thing that I felt odd about her acting was she didn't keep a good difference between the double roles she played (both sister's characters were extremely over lapping)

About the music
It was fine for a drama ost nothing appealing as such

Re-watch value
I read the comments section of this drama on YouTube and there were already a lot of viewers who were watching it for third and fourth time ... I myself will definitely come back to this one ..❤️❤️

Overall this drama was totally worth my time .

Check-In for the brilliant Cast, Check-Out for the Plot

Let’s be real—the show rolls out the same tired plot we’ve seen a million times: the classic heir versus the illegitimate child in an epic struggle for inheritance. Honestly, I could hear the collective groan of K-drama fans everywhere as we trudge through this overused storyline. The opening had me intrigued, but somewhere between the predictable plot twists and lackluster drama,I found myself wishing for a quick escape halfway through


Speaking of the cast, they do have their charm. I’m a fan of Lee Dong Wook, Lee Da Hae, Lee Deok Hwa, and Kim Hae Sook. Lee Da Hae nailed the mischievous young heiress vibe, adding just the right amount of sass to her character. But let’s be honest—Lee Dong Wook stole the show. I mean, the man looked so dapper in his suits that you’d almost consider getting pregnant just from a glance! (I know you’re imagining it too!)


In the end, I have mixed feelings about this drama. If you have a high threshold for boring plots and clichés, go ahead and check in. Otherwise, you might find yourself longing for a better stay elsewhere!

Timeless charm ❤️❤️

I initially avoided You're Beautiful due to its unappealing wallpaper, lackluster print, and an ordinary synopsis. But to my surprise, I had completely underestimated it. While the first episode was a bit of a slog, after skipping through some cringe-worthy parts, I reached a point where the story truly became engaging.

Though it may not be the best drama by today's standards, back in 2009, it must have been a blockbuster. Watching it made me nostalgic for the days when concealer doubled as nude lipstick, and bold pink blush was considered high-end fashion.

The plot is cute, old-school romantic, sweet, and family-oriented with a delightful comedic touch. And most importantly, there are no overly dramatic kisses—sometimes going back to basics can feel so refreshing! The chemistry between Park Shin Hye and Jang Geun Suk is absolutely heartwarming, and I found myself falling in love with this couple. It reminded me of Boys Over Flowers with the girl being adored by three boys, but in some ways, this one was even better (no sudden trips abroad to separate the leads!).

What’s fascinating is seeing so many familiar faces from modern K-dramas, like Park Shin Hye, Kim In Kwon, and Sung Byung Sook. The drama also showcased Korea’s impressive technology, which was already advanced back in 2009, and it's clear that even before the global Hallyu wave, Korean dramas were making their mark.

All in all, You're Beautiful may have flown under the radar for some, but it's a drama that still holds its charm and is better than many overrated modern shows. It’s sweet, nostalgic, and surprisingly refreshing!

If you wanna experience the feeling like sitting in the sun on a cold afternoon, this one will make you feel that way ... Please give it a try and you will not regret ...
XOXO

A light Love story wrapped around 'House possession'

A cute, sweet, and romantic drama with a generous dose of comedy. The story has its heartwarming moments, but there are also instances that feel a bit illogical and even irritating. One particular frustration is watching the male lead chase after his selfish crush, despite her repeatedly treating him as an option. It felt forced at times, but overall, the narrative comes together nicely by the end.

The show’s highlight is undoubtedly the outstanding chemistry between the leads, Mike Angelo and Aom Sushar. Their dynamic pairing carries the entire drama, and they genuinely look great together on screen, making their characters’ relationship feel natural and believable. Even though the ending wasn’t as sparkly or satisfying as I had anticipated, the drama still makes for a good one-time watch, especially for fans of lighthearted romantic comedies.

Gender swipe ➕ time travel to the past ? CREATIVITY PRO MAX

This drama was really really unique ... The last time I watched something similar was Rooftop prince which wasn't even half as good as this one, apparently that show was based on past to present time travel and had no gender swipe plot ...

Kudos to the writer who thought of putting a man soul in woman body that too while he travels to the past.
The show has brilliant amounts of fresh comedy .. minimum cliches and the female actor (who is acting like a man soul inside her body) did a fantastic job of delivering the comedy punches through her body language. You can't help but ROFL just by watching the way she walks. ( I am still smiling by remembering the scenes).
The segments where she( with a he inside) prepares modern dishes ... Modern skin care .... Were particularly very interesting.
Though The ML (prince) was overshadowed by FL but still his chemistry as great as per the character demand. You know it's not easy to set chemistry in plots where two straight men are involved..but somehow these two actors made things work.


Recommended to watch with a bucket of popcorn 🍿

I kept watching but the Queen didn't attack

First blow to the story comes from it's wrong synopsis..she is supposed to have superhuman strength... Like where ??? How ??? When ??? Why ??? Okay just because she helps the prince with some stretching does make her strength equivalent to a superhuman (EYES ROLL) .. she was killed like atleast 12 times in this series and yet we are calling her 'queen of attack' ... Instead of 'queen who is attacked' ..
She was a javelin player I was looking forward to some action ..but to my disappointed there was no action on her part ... (Teary eyes)

Overall story was good ... Consistent paced , good plot ...worth watching one time atleast

Leads were good .. chemistry was okay ..

If not for the sad ending I would have given it a perfect 10

First of all the Dylan wang factor made me watch the show, I didn't follow any recommendations whatsoever. The other cast was also excellent but Dylan is my fav ... As far as story is concerned, I am not impressed but not disappointed either . Few stances felt like bit of a drag ..like she had to live four lifetimes before she can stay with him .. honestly speaking it was boring . Though It was a love story but the romance was lacking ... Their chemistry was indeed awesome still I couldn't find many happy couple moments between them ...it was sad and heart breaking ... secondly the repeation of fireflies,fallen patels, butterfly and fireworks scenes was too much ..I mean like come on! man! give us some variation she is living four different lives and you are showing everything pretty much the same.
Parallel leads story was much more in focus for first 20-25 episodes.
the character of female lead is quite weak and has given very less importance ,like it was all about her yin soul other than that her role in the show was not much influential. In fact the parallel female lead stole the show for me. She is bubbly and sassy I loved her. Still I must say both actresses were beautiful and very much loveable.

After that comes the fight scenes and VFX ..those were great .. Chinese dramas are best known for the VFX/fight scenes anyway.

Music was lovely ... It was soothing and very apt for the them of the show.

Parallel leads and side actors were equally talented .. each and everyone of them (from parallel lead's side kick to cat demon ) delivered the best.

Last comes the ending ... See! I don't mind sad ending but for this one I wanted a happy ending ...no !! Seriously !! Let me explain ... I don't feel sad when characters who happened to be living as lovers shared some moments get seperated... But in their case it was prolonged wait ... Suffering , regrets and feelings of missing each other ..for freaking 200 years he was waiting ... She also was subjected to four lifetimes just to be with him ....IF THESE TWO DON'T DESERVE A HAPPY ENDING, I DONT THINK ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD DOES.

It was sad blame it on the writer who screwed the ending just because he/she wanted to showcase his/her experimental mindset ..( GO TO HELL ! writer)

So everything was perfect ... But story itself written by an average writer who I don't know might be thinking of himself as Shakespeare.



Drama is totally worth a watch and rewatch as well

I will be brutally honest here..

i kind like the main leads character but the plot wasn't good enough to do them any justice ... series went well till ep 12 ML FL met ..they helped each other to achieve personal goals ..fall in love .. got married. story was heart warming and rom-com. but after this the plot turned into bitch slap crap .. kitchen politics and domestic drama phase ... like a total 180 degrees opposite to how it started .... i am pretty sure a lot of viewers must have given up on this series here ...

i sticked around though ... and from ep 25/26 onwards i find the story improved a little .. i mean it was watchable at this point .. then it went okay till ep 37 but as we reached closer to the ending ...writer messed up again ... i mean seriously messed up ... the ending for ML FL was satisfactory ...but for villains , NO ... you will feel a different level of frustration watching the villains who deserve severe punishments were not hold accountable enough even after committing crimes repeatedly.

this was not the type of series you would recommend others but if you happen to come across it and likely to watch it i suggest you read episodes guide side by side so that you can skip the unnecessary parts ..other wise you will be exhausted
