My ID is Gangnam Beauty (2018)

I mainly started to watch this drama because my bias from ASTRO, Cha Eun-Woo, is in this drama and the plot genuinely sounded quite interesting! JTBC dramas never fail to satisfy me with their acting, plot, and their style of cinematography! Hello, My Twenties is my ultimate favorite drama and its from JTBC! This drama has been really good so far in my opinion. Although I have never read the webtoon and I have only been a few episode into the series, the characters seem to fit the roles they were meant to played in my eyes, and the acting is also great too! I recommend giving this drama a try, maybe because I really have a bias towards JTBC dramas, hehe!

P.S. The song that plays in the credit roll, True - By: RUNY is a super fun and catchy song, can't wait till the whole OST is released and available because I really love this song, and I want to hear more!

Update: I read the webtoon up until the very latest chapter which I believe is 61 and now that I can sort of compare the webtoon with the few episodes I've watched I would say I really like the additions/changes the drama made to the webtoon to make this drama, I feel like it will add more to the series!

I technically placed this show on hold a while ago because I wanted to pick up another show, and I wasn't really feeling this one. I finally decided to move the show from on-hold to dropped because I realized I'm not interested and don't really care too much to see what happens to the characters. I want to say that the message of this show is extremely important and real and is the main reason I was hesitant to drop it. You don't really see storylines like this one in K-dramas, and that was why I was first drawn in. This show focuses on bullying and talks about how appearance isn't really everything. The main girl had surgery done and changed her entire face to become "normal" she didn't do it to become pretty but rather to be accepted by society. The truth is even with all the surgery she had done, society will always be cruel and mean, and she's still bullied and looked down on. The reason I didn't connect with this show is because of the way the characters are written. I could not for the life of me connect or feel the emotions of the characters. I wanted to like the FL and ML, but I felt they were so one-sided and hollow. I applaud the creators for diving into and discussing an important topic and hope they make more shows with this topic, but with better characters and more depth.

I honestly just came here to see if anybody else think the same way that Cha Eun Woo is a terrible actor. He was so bad i couldn't enjoy the show even when i want to Throughout the drama i kept thinking how good the premise was, and how it could be a whole lot better with a new actor (and actress, i have a hard time accepting Im Soo Hyang to be a junior in University too). In certain scenes, i kept imagining if other actors i knew acted out the scene, how heart fluttering and impactful it would be)

The show could be better but in lots of the scene you fail to feel the sadness becaise of the male lead

Im sorry he is a kind soul and his look is no joke, but his acting is way too awful. Overall, the story is quite okay. And it brings a good message too

"You think we're products displayed in a showroom?"

This drama was such a swirl of feelings for me. I loved the message and the overall story that it tells of loving yourself and finding the beauty in YOU, but I feel like it took a long time to even come off with that message if it even did at all... While you never see her old face, it takes until literally episode 15 for her to accept that she looks the way she does and feel comfortable in showing that to everyone. So it doesn't even feel like in the entirety of the show that she truly loved herself. It just screamed the message looks are everything and if you don't like yours change it. I wish we could've gotten her finding love for herself and keeping that, or even realizing that looks aren't everything in a person even if it's your own looks.

The acting in this drama is also such a hit or miss. While I can see that she is playing an awkward character who has never been in social situations like these before... I just found the acting of the FL super flat. She never really shows any range of emotions, it's always linear and no emotion almost. I'll have to check out some of the other dramas she was in to see if that is her or just how she was playing Mi Rae.

I did love Eun Woo's acting in this a ton, even if he also just stares and has a quiet and shy character as well. He showed more range of emotions and definitely was the piece that got me invested in the overall story. I loved seeing this after I watched Island because you can really see how much he has grown as an actor.

There were such good messages written into the script though about body image and how people view women and the way they look. I wish that was pushed more instead of the plastic surgery aspect of the story. One of them that really stuck with me was: "We're all forcing ourselves to cheer up and carry on."

Overall, I think this drama was a pretty good watch but I wouldn't rewatch it. Just beware that really nobody in this drama has character development at all, it's all just settled and moved on from to finish the show on a happy note.

I've watched this series 3 times already.

I know the acting is not good, I have seen a lot of korean drama and Cha Eun Woo is definitely not the best. The acting is stiff, the emotion is not being delivered well, every scene he gives the same face, even I had 0 intention to watch rookie historian goo-hae-ryung because of him. The FL is not that good either, maybe she is slightly better on delivering emotions, but the awkwardness between both of them is very cringy. The side character story also quite boring, especially Do Kyung Soek's sister, did not care about her at all.

But somehow the story always brings me back to watch this series all over again. I love the story so much and I can feel the main character's insecurities. The story brings out the reality in the current situation. How the beauty standard is playing a large part in one's life and how we need to accept ourselves without thinking about what people think, how society needs to shut up and stop giving anyone pressure about appearances.

Well I hope the portrayal of such a strong story had been given to stronger actors, but this series is all I get and I will keep getting back to it anyway.

not bad but not good-Jisoo

Not bad but not good, as Jisoo from BLACKPINK said.
Is a mediocre drama but is not the worst, I actually liked the last episode, it was interesting and you could see development for some characters. The main idea of the series is lost and contradicts itself. They could have done much better with this main idea. It was hard to watch because sometimes it was soo boring but even so I continued watching and it was not worthed it. The best character was Sua, she really had a development (though only in the last ep) and a history. The main character and the male were kinda boring and without a personality too. Personally I dont recommend it, but idk, the ost was good :) The only reason I watched was because of eun woo haha.

This drama was my "during pandemic drama." So it has a special place in my heart.
The story depicts the society we are in as of today. From the overly beauty standards that have been set and those judgements that will receive for those people who will not meet those standards. I enjoyed it! This was the first drama I saw Cha Eun Woo act and I must say that he did well. Im Soo Hyang, one of my favorite actresses, did so well portraying Kang Mi Rae, from cautios and insecure to confident and inlove lady. Interesting story plot and characters! Kudos!

Well, the story was good enough to become a top drama , it talked about the youngesters' problems and the importance of inner beauty and how we could encounter the nuts minded people in our life ,but honestly because of two main actors it didn't work , the others were good but the two firs lead roles played so amateurish that ruined the drama completely. The chemistry didn't work , their face expressions were horrible and They were not able to show the details of their characters and the true emotions at all. The lead man despite of his very handsome face , was not comfortable with his character and made it a robot instead of an introvert character . I watched him in The best hits and he was good there but here he couldn't do it honestly. The first actress should cover him with her experience but she was stuck in her role too . So the result was such a mess when we watch these two especially in the scenes they were together . I score 8 just because of the less cliche story and the other actors who played acceptable.

la cirugía le dejó tiesa la cara a la mina parece pq no hace ni una expresión en toda la serie, la historia de amor no es taaan creíble pq NO TIENEN QUÍMICA la protagonista hizo que todas las escenas fueran incómodas con su cara, amiga, estás con el que te gusta y tienes cara de tener ganas de ir al baño. El prota también podría moverse un poco más, aunque a él si le creo un poco más que le gusta ella tampoco se mueve, son unos tiesos todos, mucho capítulo de relleno, aunque no me caiga mal la protagonista, por sus expresiones me desesperó en varias escenas,
