When the Second Lead Finally Got the Girl (in Another Universe)

She Was Pretty is another one of those nostalgic comfort dramas that somehow feels both familiar and brand new at the same time. Watching it again was like reuniting with an old friend with same laughs, same warmth, but with fresh eyes.

The second lead syndrome here? Absolutely real. Although in Kill Me, Heal Me, I really rooted so hard for Hwang Jung Eum and Park Seo Joon to end up together and this drama feels like a parallel world where my wish came true.

The story itself is your classic rom-com setup, a bit predictable, sure, but undeniably fun and feel-good. Choi Siwon completely stole the scenes for me. His chaotic, prankster energy added so much humor that I couldn’t stop laughing.

It may not be groundbreaking, but it’s light, refreshing, and comforting, the kind of drama you reach for when you just want something that makes you smile without thinking too hard.

📌 Watch this if you’re craving a straightforward, heartwarming rom-com with familiar faces, contagious laughter, and a happy “what if” ending for your second-lead heart.
