An unexpected gem
I thought this drama was just going to be a quick, funny watch, and though there was lots of humor there were also many unexpectedly emotional and moving moments. I think I understand the wide discrepancy in reviews: if you tend to appreciate messages like "everyone is beautiful, we're all goddesses," you might dislike the drama. But if, like me, you prefer acknowledging that not everyone is physically attractive but we all still have worth, positive attributes, and can be loved, you'll probably enjoy this! It can be startling to watch something where the female lead is called plain or ugly, or where the male lead doesn't gawk at her beauty or tell her how gorgeous she is, but I found it both refreshing and authentic that his feelings and attraction developed over time. I'm surprised by the reviews saying Se Gun didn't mature or grow - the whole point was that he used to focus solely on looks, chasing pretty women and never being satisfied, but in the end it was Nan Hee's personality and how she made him feel that he was drawn to, rather than his "dream girl" with the cold attitude. I liked how in the drama's climax, he encouraged her to find her own confidence rather than buttering her up with sappy compliments about how she's actually a dazzling beauty. Definitely spent an enjoyable afternoon watching this.
