You're Beautiful (2009)

Just completed watching this series a second time. Really enjoyed the music and the cute storyline. The music is the BEST and it truly brings out the story more!!!! It is just hard to believe that no one would realize that Park Shin Hye, who is playing as her twin brother, couldn't be recognized as a girl. It's her innocent demeanor and expression that makes that series come alive. It is so sad for her to find out that her mother passed away and that her unreachable star is so distant. The ending was definitely the BEST for me but if I were to choose between this series and Operation Proposal's ending. I would have to choose Operation Proposal but it is definitely still worth watching.

OK for some reason beyond explanation....I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS DRAMA.... I really don't know why but during the whole thing I was laughing out loud and at some simple scenes... I found myself crying (sometimes bawling) which means one thing to me... the acting is amazing. I was actually avoiding this cause of some reviews that I heard but they seemed to be all biased after watching it... I find this to be an amazing watch the music was good (although it got annoying but doesn't that happen in all dramas?) I really want to watch it again just because.... it seemed so fun to live her life so I will live it by re-watching it. There is a hidden story that I liked and that was about how deep friendship can be! Overall just give it a try don't listen to what others say about it...the irony since I'm writing a review that is saying listen to what I have to say and obey me.... and come on peeps. JEREMY, SHIN WOO, and HYUNG-NIM are to DIE FOR!

I can not believe that I almost didn't watch this series. To be honest, the cover image threw me off. However, I was in for a BIG surprise.

The story and plot was wonderful! It was funny, sad, romantic, and breathtaking. I was an emotional roller coaster throughout the entire series. You're Beautiful put a very complex story into 16 heart tugging episodes and stole my heart. As a viewer you will be completely absorbed by the friendship and unrequited love between a Nun in training and a boy band.

The actors were AMAZING! Sometimes I forgot they were acting. This drama has none of the fake crying scenes when the actress just makes the face but no tears. No! In this drama tears will pour like rain, anger will burn like fire and the romance will make your own heart beat faster. I really love ALL of the actors in this drama. There was not one single weak character.

The music on this drama is so great that I downloaded them and is determined to learn the lyrics although I don't speak Korean. Lovely Day and Without Words are two of the most beautiful songs that I have ever heard on any drama. So convenient that I watched this close to Valentines Day. When they sing the songs during the song I felt like I wanted to buy tickets to their next concert! The VOICE was there! The EXPRESSION was there! The MEANING melted my heart. I love it!

Rewatch value? Lol well I'm ready to watch it again already! This is favorite worthy. I don't even know what else to say Lol

Overall my review may seem long and over dramatic, but I don't comment on every drama I watch. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO WATCH THIS DRAMA!!

Story: It truly is hilarious. A nun moving in with three boys to be in a band! This is one of the best romantic comedies I’ve seen.You would not believe the kind of trouble such an innocent girl gets into. Surrounded by three stunningly handsome boys, how could she not fall for one? Honestly, even I did. I had a bad case of ‘Second Guy Syndrome.’ And how could they not fall for her in return? It was so much fun watching her pretending to be a boy and watching her fall in love (and not even know it.) There was such great flow between events and it really keeps you on the edge of your seat.

The only con with this drama is that she is too innocent. It makes sense that she would be seeing as she was raised by nuns. However, there are times when it gets on your nerves a little bit.

Music: An amazing OST with every member of A.N.Jell singing.

Cast/Acting: Every single one of them, from the manager to the president, from Mi Nam/Nyu to Yoo He Yi and A.N.Jell were amazing. It was refreshing to see so many different personalities played out well. Honestly, out of everyone, I think Lee Hongki did the best. Like in Muscle Girl, he was the most funny and my favorite character.

This Kdrama is about a girl who tries her best to fit in an all BOYS idol group (and in her case: pretend). From a nun in training to a pop-star idol. This is the life of Go Min Yu in her road to finding her true self, in a very unexpected way.

Although the ratings weren't as high as expected since it had a very tough competition from IRIS during it's airing, You're Beautiful was rather well accepted all over the world and had a huge fan-base online. This drama was definitely worth the wait, the space of my HD, the sleepless times I had and of course it was definitely worth the WATCH. It's like watching Coffee Prince and Boys Over Flowers together only better than BOF and good enough like Coffee Prince. Lately I've been watching too many shows where a girl cross dresses and pretends to be a man but still… I'm enjoying every bit of it.

In conclusion, the drama is a heartfelt show that would entertain specially the teens up to the young adult population. The humorous lines and acting, good music along with great cinematography (which the Korean media industry are so keen of) bring this drama to my top list in the Korean section for the year 2009.

You're Beautiful is as close to perfect as kdramas can get. You have a a girl who grew up training to be a nun posing as her twin brother in order to find the mother who she thinks abandoned them. And then there is the boy harem, which consists of a strict almost jerk-like kind of guy who can't ever admit his feelings to himself, a boy who has no problem admitting his feelings but has really poor timing, and the comic relief guy who ends up thinking he may be gay because of his feelings for the main girl (which is hilarious!). The music is absolutely perfect! I swear, nothing can make you smile as quickly as Promise, or choke up like My Heart's Calling! I try to be honest with myself in terms of the flaws of a tv show, just so that I can remind myself that I have really poor taste sometimes :p But honestly, with You're Beautiful it's really hard to pinpont any. I will say that the love rectangle gets really painful at times, and your heart will break for some of the characters. But then Tae Kyung will say "Go Mi Nam" in his pretentious way, and smile his crazy little smile, and your heart will melt all over again! When it's all said and done, if you want something to watch that will run you the full gamut of emotions from ecstatic and giggly to worried and crying, this is what you want to watch! And now, having talked about it, I must go watch all of my favorite scenes again for the umpteenth time!!

This is the first time i am actually writing a review(as in ANY kind of review)in my life!!Literally this drama forced me to write a review on it.

I have to admit this is THE BEST KOREAN DRAMA EVER. After watching COFFEE PRINCE i was like could any K-drama be any good than that. Oh boy was i wrong! I was practically swooped up from the floor after watching its first episode.

I loved every part of this show.I highly recommend it. The actors were perfect in there roles. I became a fan of Park Shin Hye and Jang Geun Suk after watching it. If you are a fan of comedy romance drama n lots n lots of pig-rabbits(You're Beautiful fans should know about it :P) Then please watch this drama. Saranghae You're Beautifull :D

You're beautiful is the first korean drama I've seen two years and half ago.
Because of that, I used to think for a long time that it was beautiful; since I only knew japanese dramas, I found everything so amazing because it was new to me. I realized that seeing other kdramas.

In my opinion, this drama is a little bit over-rated.
But to me it is still very good indeed.

The plot: the plot is nice and girly; the girl that pretends to be a boy and falls for the last man she thought she would fall.
I found that they were able to tell this in a good way, even if it was a typical plot that you can see in many dramas. So the plot is totally ok, it is full of cute moments, but also of sad ones.

The actors: I liked the casting. There were 'professional' actors as Jang Keun Suk and Park Shin Hye and also 'idols' actors as Yong Hwa and Hong Ki, I think it was a good choice, especially for a music drama.
Anyway I have something to point out.
Even if I love Park Shin Hye and I think she made a great job here, I think sometimes the part didn't suits her well; for example during love moments I felt like she was forcing her self and not acting naturally(but this is MY opinable opinion!)

The music: music was very good and refreshing, I have the ost on my phone too, I like to listen to it sometimes.



In the end, what can I say? It is a refreshing drama, a cute drama, but also a 'sad' one sometimes. Sometimes I felt it was a little but slow but that was not difficult to overcome.
Honestly, even if in my opinion it isn't a perfect drama, I rewatched it 4 times, because it is catchy!

First of all: You're Beautiful is no Drama to me. To me it's a collection of feelings: Cuteness, Sadness, Happyness, Disappointment, Love, Dramatic-all this feelings take place in this drama. The story is original-I think. It's not the typical Tomboy story.

I love love love the Cast! Jang Geuk Suk- so cool :) Jung Yong Hwa-my favourite and Lee Hong Ki-sooo cute ^_^. They're all sooo handsome *-* Park Shin Hye gives the role of Go Mi Nam such cuteness, that you just can smile all the time :D.

The Music is very important in this. You feel so much emotions when they sing, because you know the story behind the songs. Of course I gave this a 10 because I love every OST of You're beautiful.

I looove this Drama so much that I can call it Masterpiece. It will always be my favourite.
When you like... Korean Dramas you will love this one .
Out of my sight it's a must-watch *-*

Oh how I loved this drama! It made me feel so many emotions. I got angry, and sad and super happy. I loved the characters except for Yoo He Yi and reporter guy. But I think that`s a given since they are suppose to be the bad guys. I adore the music from this drama. I have the entire OST on repeat on my i-pod. This drama made me realized how great an actor Jang Geun Seok is, I now can't stop watching him. I rewatch this drama over and over again just to see him. This drama also introduced me to the sexy voice of Jung Yong Hwa and his amazing band CNBlue. It also made me realize just how versatile Hongki's voice is and how adorable he is as Jeremy, I wanted to pack him up and take him home with me ahaha.
Overall I love this drama to bits so of course I recommend it to anyone!
Happy Watching :)
