Beauty standards around the world put so much pressure on women to conform, that not doing so makes you feel like a failure.

I reckon it’s a lot worse on SK if this story (And the many other’s I’ve watched) is anything to go by. You are not only harshly judged and belittled, you’re bullied and harassed If you’re not beautiful. It’s a sad state of affairs that the show depicts wonderfully in its narration.

The story is also acted with a lot of depth and I think every character did great justice to the role they were given. Mirae’s story is really heartbreaking. She nails the inner conflict she feels even after PS. My only grouse with the show is that Kyungseok has the face of a child in comparison to her mature face. Other than that CEW does great at playing broody and stoic and Sunbae Woo-young, was also really adorable in his role.
