TO THE BEAUTIFUL YOU - Review

Just finished! Yea! =) Prior to watching I haven't seen the two other versions so I'm not really in the position to make any comparison, I have no idea which was more accurate. So I'll just write this review based on the criteria. The Japanese Manga and Taiwanese show are on “My - To - Do” list. :)



This was a very enjoyable production once I stopped comparing versions. It's definitely better rounded and has a well thought out story line. The characters seen more well rounded with interesting back stories and in this love triangle each guy gets a fighting change..



Story is okay, it's not original of course, since it's just a remake, but I did like how the story progressed. The pacing was just right, not too fast nor too slow. I loved the side stories better though than the main plot itself. LOL




While watching To The Beautiful You most times I felt sad and missed the charm. Joke! XD

It was fun and had a charm that made me fall in love with the story. The Korean is really better in every way. :) BUT a lot of times it felt like Jae Hee was being too obvious wasn't even trying to be a boy. And it took a long time for Tae Joon to grow on me.





The cast was lovely, but the lead couple's acting was so-so. :3 I'm a Shawol, but I kinda find Minho's acting annoying at times. Sulli was bearable for me though it’s really fun watching her. :) I love you Minho so I gave this drama a shot, but OMG you really need to improve your acting. :3






This is the first time I got more interested with the supporting characters rather than the lead couple. The supporting characters had more substance in them. I'd especially like to commend Lee Hyun Woo. That kid really really really really really knows how to act. It was him who carried the entire show, in my opinion. He knows how to be cute when he needs to be cute, and knows how to be sad when needed. He can portray well whatever he needs to portray, and I was really awed by his great talent at such a young age as that. Honestly, I don't think I'd manage to finish this drama if not for Hyun Woo's adorableness. :D :D






The music was great. Well it's really no surprise since the production company's SM entertainment and it'd be really disappointing if the music turned out to be bad. 




Overall, the drama's only visually attractive, but not so substantial, so if you're looking for something pretty to look at then you could try this one out. It’s a very admirable production. :)
