Very childish.. Couldn't handle

I though the series was very childish I really could not go past the 3rd episode. I remember reading few chapters of the webtoon few years ago and I thought it was quite nice with an interesting story even though I did not finish the webtoon because I am not a webtoon reader anyways. So When I saw the title of the series, I was quite delighted because I would be able to watch this story and actually finish it. But it was quite the contrary! I could not handle the acting of the female lead and how childish and naïve she acted. I could not see her ugly in anyway even without the makeup, but the character was acting so stupid, it was really getting on my nerves. I thought the whole goddess looking was also too much, she is pretty enough but the whole series was full of exaggerations and clichés quite literally for teenagers. So for >30 person this was quite annoying. I would definitely not recommend it.

I love it!!

I really love this adaptation. I love the way they added a lot of scenes and characters, it's surprising and amazing. And the casts, their visual and chemistry are so great. I'm so excited to see the remaining episodes.
I'm looking forward to the kiss scene of Jugyeong and Suho. I really love them. Thank you Yaongyi and Director for bringing True Beauty in life. I love you.
And I hoping for Season 2, the webtoon is still ongoing. I'm so excited. And I want it on Netflix please.
Suho, Jugyeong, Seojun, Sujin and to all the casts, you're so great. Also I'm so excited to the OST of Eun Woo. If I'm going to rate it, I will give it 10000000000/10. It's worth to watch, it always gives me butterflies and happiness. I'm also relate to the character of Jugyeong, I also have a lot of pimples and I almost take a suicide because of my face. But this drama shows a lot of lessons.

Good Enough

Korean Drama "True Beauty" based on a webtoon and with a fresh and comical mood, gives a light school love story with not many surprises and a pretty basic plot.

First of all, the drama nailed the atmosphere, settings and costumes for this series. The comic book shop and the girl's room, especially, were created with such detail that they were nice to watch.

The bromance was pretty entertaining as well. The two male leads had chemistry and they provided a lot of funny moments. The start of the drama was interesting as well, with some intense moments and dramatic twists. There were some funny scenes in this drama as well, and the second couple were really cute!

However, the rest of it was average. The love triangle was weak, with the second lead being interesting in her towards the middle of the length, and even then the female lead didn't seem to notice him at all. The main love story, on the other hand, was okay, but it was predictable and that twist in the end was boring and aged.

The rest of the story was also predictable and boring towards the ending.

So, overall, six and a half out of ten.

Bullying awareness

Thank you for telling this story. Bullying is serious stuff and should always be taken seriously. I am so glad that the director and producer are telling this story so eloquently and I hope this story will help bring more awareness to everyone, especially to young adults. The female lead does a nice job portraying her point of view and the pain she suffers and endures, which will make her stronger. The two male leads sure make it fun to watch. They are both very pleasing to the eyes and ears. Can’t wait for the next episode. I hope there’s a happy ending...

This show is really fun if u r depressed or feeling sad just watch it and u will feel relived .. also the original comic is so nice to read but sometimes i feel like the female lead ( in the comic ) is really stupid in her decisions and she was so insecure about her life .. that was really annoying sometimes also she doesn’t know how love works , she was so ignorant about her real feelings.. but in general it was a good comic and fun to read :) , about the drama i feel so high of it and i hope it will come out as good as the comic .. i loved the lead actors too ♥️ Have a nice day :)

Usually I don't like webtoon and manhwa adaptations; the stories escalate in wierd directions and the main charachters are almost always over the top and wierd. BUT with this one here it's perfect. By the second episode I was hooked. It's true that it's filled with the usual cliche topics of school dramas but somehow that makes it good? The cast is really entertaining and there's a lot of stupidly hilarious moments. If you're looking to watch a deep and life changing drama, this isn't probably the one for you but if you're looking to enjoy the best of kdrama romantic cliches and have a good laugh and die a little over top tier visuals then I highly recommend it. It's light, funny and did I say the cast is really really pretty? ?

the first episode

i actually read the first 60 chapters of the webtoon a few months back when i found out about it being adapted into a drama. They changed a few things [like the first meeting of jugyeong and suho, jugyeongs family situation] but overall its been very true to the webtoon and i genuinely enjoyed the first ep. Moon ga-young plays jugyeongs character wonderfully, eun woo on the other hand doesn't really show a lot of expressions, i'm hoping thats him staying true to suhos character of being the quite introverted kid.

<3

I love it! I don't read webtoons that''s why I don't know the story of True Beauty. Im looking forward to new episodes bc I am really curious about the story xD I know that this will affect me because I am very self-conscious about myself. For now, I like the series! It's really fun to watch as well. I am actually recommending this series to my friends because they are into k-drama too and I love having friends that have the same interest as me. I hope that all the other episodes will be like the first episode. <33

funny & cute .. must watch!!

ive only seen two episodes (as there are only two up as of now) but it's a lot like the webtoon and i'm really excited to see what they do with this!! the characters are really similar to those in the webtoon and i love it so far. i found that eunwoo's character is a lot more interesting than his in my id is gangnam beauty and i can't wait to see what comes next :D i really recommend starting this, from what i've seen you won't be disappointed! i love the cast and the storyline is a lot more interesting than the one in the webtoon, as the story is partly more developed to show the story through the viewpoint of the different characters (not just jugyeong) and i love this because it gives the viewer a lot more to think about. i also love the ost, i really think the songs all fit :p

IT'S A WEBTOON INSPIRED K DRAMA

The k drama True beauty is inspired by a webtoon created by a Korean webtoon artist,I am a big fan of this webtoon and I'm really exited for this k drama,I really love the cast they chose and especially the fact that Suho Lee's role is being played by Cha Eun Woo.This drama is gonna teach you self love and how people love you the way you are and even in this materialistc world we find some people who don't judge you based on your looks,you are beautiful no matter what and you are loved,this drama is gonna be a dream come true and is gonna be a chef's kiss mark my words you'll fall in love with the storyline and I bet you are gonna love it. This drama is gonna take you too a roller coaster of emotions ,you'll find yourself laughing and crying watching this.This drama also emphasizes on this judgemental world and the cruel reality how differently people treat you when you are good looking and when you are not.

Waiting for the next episode patiently.

I'm so excited with this series for 2 reasons

1. I love True Beauty, it's the 1st and only webtoon I really read and followed and I imagine Cha Eun Woo as Lee Su Ho while reading this. Having Cha Eunwoo as the ML is a dream come true for True Beauty readers like me.

2. I miss Cha Eunwoo in a drama. I've watched Gangnam Beauty several times already and never get tired of it.

I can't wait for the next episodes. I don't usually watch dramas that has few episode because I'm used of binge watching, but I cannot wait to see the episode so I started watching True Beauty even if it just started.
