True Beauty

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.

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.

The love triangle in this series created some of the best funny moments I have ever seen. The romance was definitely a highlight for this series. I enjoyed the whole series from start to end. The ending was very satisfying and left nothing more to desire. A must watch!!!

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.

This highly anticipated show has an over the top sometimes almost painful exaggerated style. It's not as funny as it should be sometimes. Maybe the source material is like that. Not sure the premise about the make up no make up difference holds up. She isn't that ugly with the glasses and no makeup to be bullied for it and she isn't that stunning with makeup. The message about looks mattering so much seems awkwardly handled. Although with the romance picking up it is getting more interesting and the backstory about the suicide. The love triangle is promising. This show doesn't take itself too seriously but compared to similar shows I prefer 18 Again and Gangnam Beauty in terms if their tone and approach. Things get slightly better as the episodes progress. Episode 6 is quite funny. The cast are well chosen and suit their roles in appearance. Moon Ga Young is enthusiastic and does well considering. Cha Eun Woo looks like a WEBTOON character come to life. Hwang In Yeop has an also comic book look. The grown ups are pretty top actors. Like Seo Dan's mom from CLOY Jang Hye Jin as her mom and SKY Castle's Jung Joon Ho as his Dad. OK for a teen show with a good cast.
