Indeed cute and brainless. maybe too brainless?

My words for wanting to start this drama was that "I need something cute and brainless". Maybe it's a little too brainless? Despite it's cute nature and bubbliness it clearly has some darker things. Such as some serious woman shaming. From calling the mamma duck "a fat mommy duck", because we need to shame the poor duck. To Piggy as a nickname of love, though that could be just a common thing and more enduring than insult. To everyone's reaction of what a woman's beauty needs to be. Let's be honest. The premise is that this gorgeous girl just isn't gorgeous enough. Despite people knowing that she had an allergic reaction they still treat her like a plague carrier. Even her own mother doesn't want to touch or look at her encase she can catch it. This is crazy.

Huh. In the States people get pretty bad acne. I suffer from cystic acne. It ain't pretty, but I don't get judged for it. Because well the hard truth is acne is pretty common. Heck, I saw someone in that "shaming" crowd who had acne. Of course it was  a boy, but still.

That said there are some fun points. Like leading lady bending the story of the Ugly Duckling to her needs. It's not a beauty and "accepting one's self" kind of tell. It's a lesson in making sure you don't sit on the wrong eggs! Ha-ha!!! Loved it. I might tend to judge a lead harsh sometimes, but I like her head. Even knowing that the people leaving rude comments are the "keyboard mafia". I suppose if society was that horrible about a good looking person, having any kind of blemish might be scary. Especially if you're a "famous celebrity". Which apparently Joo  (aka Junior) is.

Instead of staying local, I think going abroad might be kinder. At least she's still gonna carry on with her life! I just hope the over reaction, and self hate, phase ends fast. So far it's fun, and to be honest I know I can't take this too serious.  Right now I don't have much to say about the other cast. The shallow boyfriend is played well. The male lead is shiny and dreamy! I like the male Bee freind so far.

***WARNING*** If you're annoyed by bad sound quality this is the worst I've ever listened to for a drama. I know Bromance had some issues, but this drama makes the sound seem like A+ work. Because it's bad. Background noise isn't even the worst of it. The actors dialogue gets loud and then drops. At one point what the female lead said was lost, thank you subtitles for the save.
