Baby-faced Beauty lost its mojo

It has a cinderella spicy. An ugly ducking hopeless 34 year old Lee So Young who is in her lowest moment of her life gets affection from the prince, the handsome rich boss.

Jang Nara in her comeback comes into being effortlessly cute and lovable, presents a solid acting skill.

Ryu Jin who looks more handsome and youthful by lost some substantial weight plays a standard prince charming character in Korean drama. No uniqueness, no interesting personality, a bland and safe character.

On the other hand, Choi Daniel plays a cheerful-funny man with common comical stuff but somehow he succesfully made it fresh and live it up. Surprisingly pleasant ! He brings lots of laugh!

The last main role is played by Kim Min Seo, again a standard ‘girl with history in the past with male lead‘ character. No more no less.

In the early running, the writer smartly knits the story , builds the moments and makes every scenes important and useful for the story line. The story flows beautifully and in the same time many funny moments cracks us up !

But somewhere in the middle, the story  becomes sour as Kim Min Seo  becomes evil and Jang Nara starts being treated unfairly . While Ryu Jin always accidentally helps and favors Jang Nara.

For us, it damages the cheerful and all  uncertainty  vibe  built in the early episodes , the story becomes wayyy predictable and tiresome.

We know that Jang Nara will get 2 loves since first episode and Kim Min Seo will be her rival, but we disappointed with the way the writer made storyline in the middle of drama so easy , no brainer.

The writer should be able to make it more elegant, more innovative. But, instead the writer made it  an old school tactic and style. Phew.

Previously we loves Jang Nara character but, with makes Kim Min Seo so evil, dan Jang Nara so powerless and always gets so easy  miracles , we lost the appeal of the  Jang Nara’s character.

The hope that Baby-faced Beauty offers something not cliche is shattered. Cliche is ok but please don’t overdo it which -in our opinion- dangers Baby-faced Beauty to be a semi-makjang.

And Ryu Jin’s daughter is so annoying by the way.

We lost this drama around sixth episodes, can’t stand it anymore.

But we’ll check sometimes to see Choi Daniel, he did a great job here. Kudos to him !
