A very youthful drama.
This is one of my favourite dramas. I am writing this review after I watched it for the second time. It is just that good.I really love the story of how Bokjoo and Junhyung knew each other in the past. The way Junhyung calls Bokjoo 'Chubs' is the cutest thing ever.
What really adds to the cutestness was the fact that the actors Nam Joohyuck (Junhyung) and Lee Sungkyung (Bokjoo) had actually dated while filming this drama.
Keeping that in mind, they made the on screen romance so perfect. Their moments before and after dating were so cute. I would say that the trope for this drama would be 'Long lost friends to lovers'
This drama is fantastic.

This drama was amazing!
Firstly, I would like to comment on the fact that they kept true to the webtoon and despite the minor changes in the story, the drama really captured the essence of the webtoon and we got to see our favourite characters come to life.The casting of the indivdual characters was done to the 't'
I'm not saying this because I'm a fan of Astro and Eunwoo, but as a lover of both webtoons and dramas. Eunwoo really did so well when he played Suho and I feel like he was the perfect match for Lee Suho.
Hwang Inyeop!
He's a splitting image of Seojun and I can't get enough of him. He acted so well, you would think that he was the real Seojun that was brought to life. He was everything that Seojun was and I can proudly say after having read the webtoon and watch the drama that I am Team Seojun.
And finally, our main character, Lim Jugyeong.
Gayoung played her so well, she was funny, sassy and a whole queen that out Jugyeong is. I really felt so connected to Jugyeong and I related to her on so many levels. Gayoung just made me feel so Jugyeong more.
The story of True Beauty isn't just a romance drama for entertainment. It highlights important things that happen to a lot of people. Judging people because of how they look has become a bad habit that society had adpoted. There are also mentions of bullying, peer pressure and even self-harm. This story touches on these subjects in an understandable way and makes the readers/watchers think.
I hope that after watching this drama, people would be more considerate to the people around them.
Overall, this drama was fantastic and is definetly worth the watch.

This drama was make with the feelings of us fans taken into consideration.
This is one of my all time favourite dramas, and for one reason in particular: it feels like my imagination came to life.The story ofhow Jeongha, a fangirl of Hyejun gets to meet him and actually become friends with him is something that I am sure most fans would love to experience.
Its not just a romance, we get to experince friendship at it's finest. Passion and determinate at it's peak. The story is just so inspiring.
You can learn so much from this drama. You can laugh and cry and relate to almost everything.
What made this drama really memorable to me was thst fact that I watched the episodes as it was being realeased while on call with my best friend.
Due to Covid, we could not watch together but just having that phone call while watching such an amazing drama was enough. Seeing the friendship between the characters even strenghtened my friendships!
This drama is so amazing, its worth the watch 100%
