A Love So Beautiful

The series follows the life's and loves of a group of students over their lives at school onto the success in their particular careers. A light fluffy story with the occasional very funny incidents. If you want an easy watch with heartwarming friendships you won't go wrong here.

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 :)

Girl has had a crush on the boy next door since forever. Boy is not interested in the slightest, is scornful and dismissive of her. Ugh.

Enter a sports jock, a star swimmer with a kind and generous personality, who takes a great liking to girl.

Suddenly the loser next door (typical dog in the manger) is piqued and jealous that she's actually got someone interested in her, and ends up behaving badly.

This goes on: we see the years move forward semester by semester.

Kdramas have a ridiculous habit of getting their middle aged and wrinkled actors to don a bad wig and play themselves back in high school. Luckily this doesn't happen here.

The female lead plays an effervescent high schooler so effectively and when she's all grown up in her 30's her body language and mannerisms change accordingly. I was so impressed with her acting ability and her cheerful smile.

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.

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!!!
