Do Ah Ra is a top model. She is meticulous about her work and her perfect body and likes things to be just right on the set of her photo shoots. When she starts to work with a skilled photographer, Kang Do Kyung, she at first is annoyed by his tardiness and his suggestions on how to do her job. But Do Kyung’s photographs of Ah Ra for a magazine increase Ah Ra’s popularity, and she becomes smitten with him. When Ah Ra learns that Do Kyung only likes chubby women, will Ah Ra eat her way into his heart? (Source: Viki) Edit Translation

While working in the fashion industry, I've dealt with many models, MUAs, hair stylists, fashion designers, photographers, etc. What drew me to this film is the topic of modeling and fashion.

From the beginning, I did enjoy the caloric intake of breakfast for a typical model. However, when I heard she was eating 600 calories per day, I was very surprised. Normally, a model would intake 1000-1500 calories per day depending on her metabolism and she would use her daily meals intake differently each time in order for her body not to reach stabilization or a plateau.

The movie was OKAY. It had great potential but it blew it. It didn't astound me nor it wasn't consistent all the way through. At first, it seemed normal at the start and later on, I see this unnecessary comic/graphic approach with cutesy sayings and actions being blurted out on the screen. It just seemed to jump all over the place and I couldn't really feel like the movie was decent.
This is where it lost its vibe.

As a former model, I did not behave in front of photographers and assistants in the studio like she did. Nowadays, you have to wear what the photographer/wardrobe stylist wants you to wear and put your emotions aside. It's not your photoshoot, it's a collaborate thing. You can't put a hissy fit on what you want to wear to a professional shoot. It want your own shoot, then do one as a creative for yourself. You choose to be a model in this specific area then that's your choice.

For me, this movie was not a pleasurable experience since I have background experience in the industry.

Highly not recommend this movie to others. For those above reasons.

This movie had so much potential. I thought the summary was great (I read the summary somewhere else, not here, they basically say the same thing though). A top model gaining weight for love. But she loved him...? Did she? There was no "falling in love", it was just "I want him". That's it.

Then she starts eating. Okay. I was excited because her brother was helping. I definitely thought she was going to gain a lot of weight. But she looks the same, just smaller clothes.

It was funny at times, especially in the beginning. But this movie wasn't anything special.
