Story: Because it is a remake of the korean drama "You're beautiful" the storyline is the same, the plot ofcourse the same. My expectations were set pretty high because i really loved the korean version, and because i did watch You're beautiful, it was almost impossible to not compare the two versions. There are slightly different scenes but overall it does stick to the original version very closely. This version has 11 episodes so the storyline goes by a faster pace but it still feels like the story is fulfilled nicely.

Acting/Cast: The acting really resembled the ones with the korean version , which is not bad at all, but i think it would have been a bit more interesting having different bits of characteristics that the actors could have incorporated. This would have helped give the actors more ownership to the characters , instead of seen them as the second Jeremy or the second Shin Woo. But if it is your first time watching the drama the acting is pretty good, it is fun to watch and entertaining.
The cast was okay, but they all seemed to lack a bit of chemistry together. it would have been nicer to see them more in a friendship kind of matter, the connection between them was not as tight as it could have been.

Music: the music was good, it was mostly a remake of the other version, but (again) if you haven't seen the korean version, the music was also very nice, it set the mood for the scenes right and it helped the drama move along, and it is a bit catchy.

Rewacth Value: i think its fair, its not as catchy as it could be for me to watch it again, but is does go by fast so if you do decide to watch over again it it will go nicely.

Overall: i'll give it an 7/10 , the korean version was one of my favorites, and it was impossible for me not to compare the two. But to be fair without a comparing both, this drama was good, but it wasnt great, it lacked of some charisma, chemistry, some ownership between the characters, but the story line was very good, and the acting was entertaining. report I found this review Helpful Not Helpful
