It seems Soo Ho knows that the no makeup Ju Kyung at the comic store is the same person as the made up Ju Kyung at school. Ju Kyung feels anxious that he might tell everyone about how ugly she actually is. She promises him that she’ll do anything he asks, but it starts to wear her out. (source: thetvdb)

Not sure yet

I will give it that it's funny as hell. But I am still doubtful about a lot of things. Joo-kyung was running away from getting bullied for her looks but ended up in a very similar situation where now Su-ho is making her do things for him in exchange of keeping her secret. Not that much of progress in her situation. And overall I don't think her pimple face is as bad either. Little bit of skincare could have gotten her better results then living complete 2 separate lives. But the question is should I be judging her? No coz I never went through similar situation. I wasn't some pretty girl in school but neither did I faced bullying for the way I looked. So, if not for the story, I will still continue the series for a few more episodes for great comic timing and for Eunwoo. I hope the story gets better!!

8.0/10 - Tropey, yes. The characters and writing make it A-mazing!

Picking up right where we left off with Su Ho saving Joo Gyung from having to show her real face. It makes me a bit sad that Joo Gyung immediately thinks that Su Ho knows the truth and that's why he's helping. I mean I think he knows too, but I don't think there's an evil motive.

The thing that sticks with me is that Joo Gyung brother says that she is committing fraud by wearing makeup! Then isn't every woman!!!??? What constitutes as too much makeup and when it turns to fraud? I love that Joo Gyung tells him the beautiful girl he likes is probably just like her underneath all that makeup. Inception. The seed of doubt has been planted. I tell you he's gonna get a crush on an "ugly" face girl.

This episode was a bit annoying with Joo Gyung constantly panicking over Su Ho knowing the truth. I guess she's just going to the worse fear because she doesn't want to experience the level of bullying she went through before. I love that she got so inspired buy her sister's video game to handle Su Ho, but then immediately set herself up for failure. Joo Gyung was panicking so much that she couldn't see that Su Ho actually likes her. Which is rare so fast!! We're only on episode 3 and he's trying to get her to hang with him. He wants to spend time with her.

I was right!!Joo Gyung's sister is having a romance!! I love that she's so prepared to change a flat and saves the man that has caught her eye! It just makes me so happy with this role reversal! >_< You go girl!!! Get your man!!

I feel like poor Seo Jun is going to be nothing more than second lead. The setup isn't going to really take him farther than that. Which breaks my heart. The actor is amazing and I honestly like the character.

That said I love that Joo Gyung was defeated by her terrible singing—I get you girl—and went with something that utilized her courage. Her mad, awesome, dancing skills. Which of course turned out to not be the talent contest, but it was amazing!! Giving us something to life about, and Su Ho something to fantasize about. ^_-

That is one thing I really like about True Beauty, we get to see the ML fantasizing about the FL!

It was really interesting getting to see Seo Jun family life and it humanized him a lot. It shows most of his attitude is bluster to hide what's going on. Joo Gyung finally confronts Su Ho not knowing that what he really wants is to spend time with her enjoying something they love together. Seeing him take care of her is a standard drama trope and one viewers love. The ending with the boys gearing up to fight is very intense!

It's ON!

Both male MCs have thrown their hats into the ring. I'm VERY MUCH looking forward to their back story.

I'm only 3 episodes in. I'm enjoying the ride so far. I hope it maintains until the end.

TRUE CAME OUT

Okay i just what true beauty ep 3. As we know two male leads are giving hot time in the story. our female joo gyung. hiding her true identity from su ho but he was more smart than our joo he already find the truth of her. I LIKENow story cooking good between lim joo and seo jun. around helmet . her sister scene and her family scenes are so funny i laugh so hard that my shout on me but i was laughing. We also see the dance of lim joo on maria (hwasa) kpop song. it was good and sexy.Both male leads know the truth of her.I think must be a kiss should be shown with our su ho jealous time ON.I DON'T LIKE How her mother told her that she is ugly.sun ho made her work so hard but i know he wants to spent some time with her.but she so dump always ran away.she must have given award for best runner in kdrama 2020
