True Beauty

TRUE BEAUTY (2021)

Secrets. Love. Friendship.

A cute and fun drama. Made me feel young again. So much kilig with Su-ho! Super guapo grabe, Cha Eun-woo! 💞 Ju-kyung (Moon Ga-young) was so funny! She looks like Alex Gonzaga(Filipino celebrity) though. Her family made me laugh!

Had a flashback with those who bullied me ages ago. Belat sa inyo!

9/10 for me!

"I'm in the mood for dancing.. romancing..."

P.S. It's not in Netflix. I watched thru Viki.

At first I was a little annoyed that the concept was overplayed, but the writing and the character development of all the characters, not just the main ones, was what really drew me into this drama.

The ending was one of the most fulfilling endings I've seen in a K drama in a long time. It really allowed you to feel satisfied, rather than the "well what the hell did I waste my time on that for?" that you quite often get left with.

Absolutely recommend it. I particularly enjoyed the storylines of the secondary characters.

Just finished True Beauty tonight (it's the first full show I've got through in a while without being distracted by other shows 😊) and I absolutely loved it. So happy with how it turned out. It's definitely going on my faves list and will no doubt be rewatched sometime.

The theme was similar to My ID is Gangnam Beauty, though I'm glad that the heroine in this one didn't go as far as the Gangnam one did with an irreversible decision (trying to avoid sharing spoilers for anyone who has yet to see either show). Guess she had a less totally clueless parent which helped.

Loved the supporting cast, and it's hard to pick a fave but I love the heroine's sister and her grapefruit 😍💜

Anyway, that's about it I guess for my thoughts. Except to add that I very much enjoyed the dreamy dudes on offer.

I really liked this drama, the characters grew and changed well. I also like the message of the story, and the acting is great. Even though Ju Kyung didn't end up with who I wanted her to the show still had a really good ending. There's sad parts but overall it's pretty light and funny.

If you want to laugh a lot with the characters, if you want to get emotional and if you like the cliché moments that makes you fall in love, you should definitely check out this drama. Ignore the low ratings, most refer to one of the characters not getting more what he deserved, which I agree, but giving a 6 or 7 is even more unfair, especially when you consider the whole drama.
