I watched this because Jerry Yan was the only thing I liked about Hot Shot, so I wanted to see more of him, and because I really liked Ella in Hana Kimi. The show started out really cute and watching the relationships develop was fun, but about half way through everything just crashed. It became too love-triangly and melodramatic and I found myself really irritated with the secondary characters. If the second half were more up to snuff with the first, I would've really loved this series. Still, Jerry and Ella did a really good job, so it's worth watching once if you're fans of them.

First off, I have to say that I don't really like sports movies/shows. So the plot wasn't really interesting to me. Also, I watched this show for Wu Chun, and even though he has third billing, he's hardly in it. So, I didn't like the plot, I didn't really connect with the characters, I got bored really easily, and I also HATED the super random ending. The only things I enjoyed were Wu Chun's cameo-like parts, some of Show Luo's funny parts, and Jerry Yan's amazing acting. Those are the only things that kept me watching till the end.

I didn't like this part as much as the rest of the series. I felt like the plot was really random and a bit pointless, but the amazing actors were still able to pull it off. The best thing about it is the ending and the nice way it wraps everything up. Not as good as the rest, but still definitely worth watching.

I have this on DVD so that shows how much I like it. It's a really great sequel, even better than the first part I'd say. (But that may just be because MatsuJun has better hair in this one... Kidding!) All the characters were still amazing and kept developing and getting even better. And there were some new characters that were really great too. There were new obstacles that popped up without being irritating or overly dramatic. Overall, a great continuation of an amazing series!

I starting watching this series because of MatsuJun and ended up really loving it! It's the only drama I have on DVD, so that's saying something. The acting is really good, the characters and plot are really interesting, and the humor is well balanced with the serious parts. Overall, a really great drama that I could watch over and over again.

You're Beautiful is my favorite Asian drama. Not that's it's perfect. It's just so enjoyable to watch! It's really funny yet touching, the music is great, and everyone portrays their characters really well. (Even if some are a bit more eye candy than they are good actors. ^_^) It's a show that I could watch over and over again and I even liked it enough to buy my own deji-toki. I highly recommend this drama!
