I watched this because after watching a bit of the Japanese version, Hanakimi, I was hoping for a better Korean rendition with a better looking cast. This turned out to be a huge mistake, however, when the cast ended up possibly even worse than the Japanese fellows and the drama somehow managed to make even Choi Minho look ugly. On top of that, in the Japanese version, the girl had a legitimate and heartfelt reason for enrolling into the school whereas in To the Beautiful You, Koo Jae Hee's reasoning was stupid and shallow and simply molded her character to be exactly like the girls who fangirl outside Minho's character's school. Absolutely horrendous.
