I was glad that the teachers got together also. Loved the interaction between the leads, it was very realistic.
I have watched this 3 times already and still want to re-watch it.

I definitely give a thumbs up to this drama. The story is overall mind-boggling, with some twists and turns.. Unfortunately, I wish there was a good ending. For me, the ending was just so plain.
Anyways, this is one drama that I love watching over and over again. I admit, Park Shin Hye definitely has the capability to win the hearts of her co-stars, since she is such a simple but beautiful woman.. right, piggy rabbits? :)

You're Beautiful is not for mature audiences, no one really should step into this drama for a compelling and a ocean deep story. This story is all about standing in shallow water looking for something not even in the pond...you would know what I mean when you watch this...just don't look for something that is not there.
Instead you would get a fluffy plot, with funny scenes and all around cuteness.
Thoughts:
I watched this drama three times:
The first time, I really was rooting for the second lead, the second time I really fell in love with the first lead and the third this I came to realize that Jeremy (our 3rd lead) really was the best character hands down...and probably most deserving of our female lead. That bus scene though....Hong Ki did a wonderful job!
I would recommend this for anyone that wants a light story, with unbelievable things happening nonstop and a quick laugh. The re-watch value for this fluff is extremely high for me for some reason.

The story for me is nothing new. Gender bender from girls to boys is really common on manga. For this drama I think nothing special for the story too.
For some first episode well nothing much happen on some first episode actually so it's not bad yet not good. But then it's getting better and better when the romance begin and I start to like it. But, on some last episode (around 14) it's getting worse. But the ending is pretty good :)
I love the cast and the music ! The cast play the role well I think :D And I like that "I will promise you" song xD
Overall I don't dislike this drama but I wouldn't say it's my favorite. Well I still enjoy most of time watching this drama :D
I think you should watch this. I still recommend this drama :)

After some time, though, I became more familiar with the Asian drama concept, so I tried to re-watch a lot of shows I disliked before. This was one of those. But after knowing a lot more about it, it was suddenly SO funny and cute! The acting was so good, I couldn't believe it! It was actually surprising at some points.
The story was amazing! The only reason I didn't give it a full score, is because of the unnecessary scenes that makes you want to keep watching it as if it never happened.
The cast really did their job, and each actor fit their character so perfectly it was scary! I especially like the way they use facial expressions and gestures. But I can't really give a full score here, either, because I do want to replace some of them, for some reason.
Music is exactly what you'd expect from such a cast. But I love the fact that they're sung by the cast, and how it personalizes everything very deeply. And the music really carry out the emotions needed.
I don't think I would re-watch this in the nearest future. Not because it was bad, but because I wouldn't be able to forget the whole story that quickly. Rather than the low re-watch value score being something negative, think of it as positive.
Overall: This is definitely one of the best dramas I've ever seen. When I'm an adult with kids, I'm going to keep the whole show on a DVD or anything, and when the kids are old enough, I'll make them watch this. Because it really does carry a very important moral that is hard to teach. I loved it very much.

It’s a drama for young people like teenagers and young adults. It has a good story. As a first drama it is kinda nice to watch. It doesn’t have that much heavy themes. And the OST is really good! It mostly captivates you for the OST.
If it was now I probably would pick another drama to watch first. Not that it is bad…it’s just… not that good… at least in my opinion!
You know why it became so popular? Lee Hong Gi, vocalist of FT Island. Jung Yong Hwa, vocalist of CN Blue. And also Jang Geun Suk. Well I think this is a bit sad.. I mean, people only told me to watch it because they were dazzled with those famous singers. Not because they are good actors nor because of the story! But just because they are in a drama and they are famous! This is unbelivable…
Now that I saw more dramas after this one I can see what is a good performance or not and those certainly are not actors.
I kinda liked Yong Hwa’s performance. Not Hong Gi. I also liked Jang Geun Suk but I rather see him in Mary Stayed Out All Night. Probably because he was a really cold person in You’re Beautiful. And I HATED Park Shin Hye’s performance. Too much sloppy, innocent, childish, repetitive, ANNOYING!!
You just have to know that if you want to start watching dramas you can start by this one but there are so many good dramas to start with!! Or else.. do not watch this drama! watch it after watching others, if you’re really curious. Or else, do whatever you want! But this drama lacks so much! If I was the director I would have developed it better! It is funny though… but I guess that after seeing such good dramas as I saw after you just realize that this one isn’t that good.

you can’t go wrong with a classic
I have been in a bit of a slump lately where I struggle to complete any dramas. So, I decided to go back and watch an old kdrama. The story is a little crazy but adds to the fun of the show. I love all the characters in the band and the dynamic of them all living in the dorm. LET’S BRING BACK YEARNING!! omg the yearning was so good.There were some plot lines that I believe went on for way too long but they tied it all together very well in the end.
If you want a classic early 2000s kdrama romance with a crazy plotline, add this to your list!

*sigh*
This drama has a lot of cliches and probably was the original one that started those I’m not sure because I’m fairly new to kdrama land. But honestly cliche is not at all the problem with this drama. I can manage with cliche dramas and still find them cute.This drama started off fine like I knew what to expect and since I watched it in 2021 it probably wouldn’t make it to my top 3 or top 10 considering the plot is a little outdated. Pig rabbit concept was cute tho!(0.5 for that)
The main problem with the drama however is that it gets so frustrating with every passing episode. The heroine suffers so much because of her one sided love, the other guy in the love triangle also silently suffers because he’s unable to tell her how he feels but the hero can’t even decide properly till the last episode that he wants to be with the heroine. His feelings are very vague and there’s really no romantic chemistry between the leads. They seem like a pair of siblings, Hwang Taegyung being the older sibling always looking out for his little sis Ko Mi-Nam
As this drama was inching closer to the end my patience was ticking. The drama was hella frustrating and childish.
I finished this drama out of pure respect for the the leads Jang Geun Suk and Park Shin Hye. Both of them are really good actors (The 2 points in this review are for them). The actor who played Shin woo couldn’t act. His eyes were blank. But I read somewhere that it was his first drama so I’ll let it slide.

very much loved the cast, young actors made such a good performance.
One thing I didn't like? maybe that there isn't a second season, would love to see how the others end up.
if you love innocent, funny, and small secret in a young drama, this is definitely one that has to be watched. :)

....and why did the stylists keep messing with poor Jeremy's hair? I just wanted to fix it for him lol
The whole cast was fantastic and adorable.
