  • It’s a perfect combination of humor, sadness, romance, lovable characters, and everything you’d want in a drama. It will definitely put you in a good mood.
  • I really love the sismance and bromance.
  • The supporting casts were pretty interesting and funny, definitely gave me a good laugh from time to time.
  • Park Yoo Na absolutely aced every aspect of Soo Jin.
  • Moon Ga Young nailed her role and did her job wonderfully.
  • I like Cha Eun Woo but I couldn’t deny the fact that his acting was not that natural, but I must say that he is getting better in his emotional scenes.
  • I love Hwang In Yeop, he’s definitely one of the best second male leads I’ve ever seen. I wish I can have him for myself.
  • Overall, the story is nothing new but it keeps entertaining being light-hearted and hilarious. It was so fun and amazing for me and I definitely recommend it especially to rom-com fans.

My Rating – 9.0/10

INSPIRING K-DRAMA QUOTES FROM TRUE BEAUTY
  • I was so caught up with how hurt I was, that I didn’t know that you were hurting inside as well. – Han Seo Jun
  • If I hate my face just because they say that, I’d be agreeing that I’m a loser. So I’m going to ignore them and live with the face I’m given. – Han Go Woon
  • A person who tries everything has no regrets.
  • You decide your own worth. – Lim Hee-kyung
  • Some of you don’t know… what it is that you really want. And some of you do know, but you’re hesitant. But opportunities come without a warning. And you must be prepared to take advantage of it.
  • It must’ve been difficult for you trying to keep the truth hidden. Those who make you feel this way are the losers. So don’t ever think that again, got it? – Kang Soo Jin
