Plot

This series tells the story of Kang Mi Rae, a girl once bullied for her looks. As a result, she became insecure, cautious around people and withdrawn. However, Mi Rae decides she wants a fresh start away from bullying and gets plastic surgery to transform her face. When she begins university, she meets Do Kyung Suk from their middle school days, who sees people for what they are on the inside and not the outside; he then becomes attracted to Kang Mi Rae.
As Mi Rae begins to get teased once more and labeled “Gangnam Beauty”, the cold, aloof but kind inside Kyung Suk becomes the one person that stands up for her and in the process, Mi Rae begins to recover her lost confidence and discovers that true beauty is not on the outside.

My thoughts

Main Male lead- Cha Eun Woo is my most favourite new actor of they year 2019 and also one of the best idol actor for me. I will be definetly checking out his new dramas. I already watched Top Management.

Female lead- It was my first time watching Im Soo Hyang and she did a wonderful job here. She easily made it to list of my favourite actresses.

Soo Ah is such a hateful character, the actress did a good job.

I watched teasers of this drama on YouTube just before this drama was going to start and I knew that I am going to like this drama.

I started this drama while it was airing and I was really enjoying it. I was looking forward to every new episodes.

While waiting for this drama, I also read the manga/webtoon this was based on. Check my post here.

While watching last two episodes I felt that they should have given more or at least much-needed attention to second leads and given them proper endings but all focus was on the main couple.

It’s sad that many people who are watching this drama now are not enjoying it. While it was on air, it received a lot of love. I will definetly re-watch it and this is among my most favorite dramas of all time.

My rating- 9/10 (I love it.) Highly Recommended.

(If you like romance and teen dramas.)
