"You were almost there... just one more step and you would have found me."

"You're Beautiful" was my first Korean Drama and to this day I cannot find a single flaw in it. I just rewatched it for the first time in 10 years and it had the exact same effect on me as it did the first time. I laughed like crazy, I cried, I squealed, I shipped, I yelled, I sang along... I could honestly watch it again and again and again.

The story is quirky and catches your interest from the very first scene. The pacing is really great - there is not a single episode that feels like a filler.

I know the character of Go Mi Nam (or I guess I should say Go Min Nyu) is not for everyone. My sister, for example, can't stand her. Personally, I find her cute and funny. Hwang Tae Kyung is a jerk most of the time but he is never cruel and he reveals his softer side throughout the course of the drama. To this day, I still think this is Jang Geun Suk's best role. His face was made for a role like Tae Kyung's. He can show so many emotions with just his eyes alone.

However, Hongki (my first Korean love) and Yonghwa are the ones that deliver the most emotional and scarring scenes that always make me cry my eyes out. It's hard to decide whether I find Jeremy's or Shin Woo's emotional scenes more tragic - they are both devastating in their own way. I always root so hard for Shin Woo and get my heart broken all over again.

And the OST... the OST is just genius! So beautiful, such great vocals of the cast, so fitting for the atmosphere of the drama. I could cry just thinking of "What Should I Do?" and "Without Words" (which was the first Korean song I learned the lyrics for - I practised in my room and everything.)

Apart from the genius OST, the beloved cast and the humor, "You're Beautiful" has some really unique and beautiful elements such as Jeremy's Magic Bus, which is a brilliant (and heartbreaking) concept tbh.

There really isn't any flaw that I could point out.
