What it’s about: If you aren’t already hooked on this, you’ll want to tune in. Touching on teen insecurities and Korean culture’s obsession with beauty, the drama is adapted from a hugely popular webtoon of the same name by Yaongyi, and made it to the silver screen in December last year.
Moon Ga-young plays 18-year-old Ju-kyoung, who is cruelly bullied at school for her looks and has an inferiority complex. However, she gets massively popular after mastering the art of makeup through video tutorials.
Determined to hide her real face after enrolling at a new school, she also gets entangled with not one but two love interests (played by Hwang In-yeop and Cha Eun-woo). Sure, the plot does border on exaggeration and slight cheesiness, for the most part, but the cast’s performance, fun graphics, and set design, and humorous elements are likely to steal your heart.
