A Love So Beautiful

Super adorable series! It was so funny and so cute. Total feel good series. Reminded you of all the little moments that feel momentous when we fall in love. Highly recommend as it's entertainment value was high. All the characters were great and all the storylines nicely developed. While predictable it was a joy to watch. Another great K-drama!!!

If you're looking for something fun and light, you really can't go wrong with "A Love So Beautiful." Frankly, there have been better shows involving a girl who falls in love with a boy where the girl (for some reason) isn't very bright compared to the object of her affection. "Good Morning Call" and "Mischievous Kiss: Love in Tokyo" are better series.

This is a story that has been done a number of times, although the twist toward the end finally gives it some brand of uniqueness despite knowing how it's going to end. Not all shows that are predictable are necessarily bad.

Shin Sol-Yi is a young, passionate girl, who's quite naive and also very immature for her age. Unfortunately, this doesn't really change as she gets older. She starts out as a 17-year-old girl, acting like she's 10. She ends as a twenty-something woman acting like a 12-year-old. She whines and pouts, and too often this becomes a little annoying.

I've lived and worked in China, Korea, and Taiwan. And I've told people: take the girl's age and subtract ten years to get her true maturity. It rarely fails.

Cha-Heon is the object of Sol-Yi's affection. He's the top student, but he's a bit cold and aloof when it comes to Sol-Yi and her more than obvious interest in him.

The performances are pretty good. Yo-Han Kim (Cha-Heon) is a bit wooden in his role. So Ju-Yeon (Shin Sol-Yi) has the cutest dimples in the world and a million-dollar smile to boot. I only wished that she'd been able to bring more depth and dimension to her character as well as giving her character a bit more maturity to make her more appealing and less annoying.

The kissing scenes in this show are some of the worst I've ever seen. Wooden, tight-lipped with absolutely no feeling or authenticity at all. It was quite obvious that the actors and actresses did NOT like doing them.

Still, this is a fun series to watch. It's nothing too special, but it's a solid feel-good story that will likely put a smile on your face.

I think if I hadn't watched the Chinese version first, I probably would've enjoyed this one more. With that said, the main problem I had with this one was the casting. While both lead characters did their best to portray their character, the main problem I had was their age disparity. It was too obvious that he was much younger than her. It was fine for him when he was in high school. But for her, it was pretty clear that she wasn't that age. Fast forward to when they are suppose to be in college and beyond. It fits her, but it was hard to picture him as a medical student let alone a doctor unless he's suppose to be Doogie Howser. He just looked too young and obviously younger than her. And I think that distracted a bit from the overall story. But as a whole, the series is still pretty good and if we take it separate from the other series, it's a decent watch.

You can watch this for the female lead itself! Omg, she's so cute and naive that you just can't take your eyes off her. The story's really great. I really recommend this drama :)

Can't help but to notice she female principal actress doesn't look young enough ... her profile is according to her age 27ish... She is pretty but doesn't match with the test of the cast unless she is smiling ... still a good show to watch
