Una de las comedias románticas más lindas que vi
La historia gira en torno a Kim Young Ho y Kang Joo Eun. Él es un entrenador personal súper famoso que mantiene su vida privada y su apariencia en el anonimato y ella es una abogada de 33 años que en el pasado era conocida como la "Venus de Daegu" debido a su apariencia...La cuestión acá es que ella descubre la identidad de Young Ho y lo "chantajea" con esto para que él la ayude a recuperar su figura (lo digo entre comillas porque la realidad es que todos saben desde el principio que ella nunca haría eso y encima el prota tiene sus propios motivos para ayudarla).
Este kdrama fue toda una sorpresa. Lo empecé solo porque quería ver cómo trabajaba Shin Min Ah y me terminé enamorando de ella y de la historia (que en sí es súper simple, pero está muy bien llevada).
Los personajes son buenísimos (tanto los principales como los secundarios) y las relaciones que se van creando entre ellos son súper creíbles y se construyen de una manera muy natural (no puedo con la química que manejan los actores en esto, en serio. La pareja principal se convirtió en una de mis favoritas y a él lo amo a niveles que no puedo expresar... Tienen momentos TAN bellos juntos, son todo lo que sí 😍)
Algo que amé es la forma en la que se toca el tema de la salud y el amor propio. No es una serie que te haga sentir mal con vos mismo, nada que ver, está todo visto desde una perspectiva bastante positiva. No te venden la idea de que si sos flaco te vas a querer y vas a ser feliz, eso se agradece.
Obviamente además del tema de la prota intentando bajar de peso, tenemos los dramas de los personajes secundarios y varias cositas más... En general me gustó todo, salvo un detalle de la subtrama de uno de los amigos del prota (que es luchador). La chica que termina siendo su pareja es el "no, mi ciela" máximo.
En fin, es una serie muy divertida, con personajes súper queribles y una trama bien llevada que cierra por todos lados (además, dentro de lo posible, evita caer en clichés).
Pd: Si yo tuviera a ese entrenador, también me pondría las pilas(? 😂

The 2 main leads carried this drama. I liked So Ji Sub in "Master's Son" but I LOVED!! his character in this drama. I don't think a personality like him exists in real life, but I guess that's why I am thankful for dramas. His character Kim Yeong Ho is the capable and tough protector that those close to him all depend on. But he also shows a vulnerable and sexy side and an unwavering devotion to the woman he falls for. I really liked Shin Min Ah as Joo Eun too. Her character is bright and cute and is a good match for Yeong Ho. Their relationship is reciprocal and caring and you can feel why they love each other. Together they elevate an uneven and cliche-ridden plot making this one of the more pleasurable and easy to watch shows I've seen. This caused me lots of missed sleep this week. I easily watched the whole thing in 4 days.

I think both the actors So Ji-sub & Shin Min-a had such good chemistry together, and I loved how they both just helped each other through everything!
But, I did think Yoo In-young in the show was sooo skinny! I don't know why but she was such a evil character but I think she was a bit too skinny!
I loved Henry Lau & Sung Hoon! They both made the show really funny. the side, wingmen always helping out in whatever way!

Also, I really loved that the weight loss achieved by Joo Eun was realistic, reasonable, and done for health reasons, not vanity or vengeance. I think it really delivered a great message. Especially since her weight issues derived from medical issues and lifestyle habits, not out of pure laziness (which is something people may say to overweight individuals without knowing the entire situation or considering other factors).
I would recommend it to anyone who wants a light drama, with good laughs ("hey ma'am!"), sweet moral lessons, an amazing OST, and a steamy romance. AND I would absolutely watch again. I actually find myself watching clips from it often because it was so entertaining.

Story:
A plot that speaks of an important subject, in a light, positive and relaxed way. I liked the fact that they fled aspects that appear very much in k-dramas: violent/abusive attitudes. Perhaps these are common features in Korean culture, but for someone on the other side of the world, slapping faces, humiliations (in public or not), bosses / family / partners who yell, pull on the arm, push ...is not good to watch (for me). THEN, I find it very cool that this drama doesn't have in its plot the typical line of the poor girl / naive / half dumb + the arrogant / abusive chaebol, nor have a super restrictive family that does everything not to leave the girl with the heir, and try to marry him at all costs with another ... things like that. In my opinion, the drama already deserves a very high score for this.
Negative point: Possibly, due to the Korean beauty pattern and the pressures of the society, the person can not "feel" beautiful and well, or be healthy, being chubby. I felt the story put it can only be healthy by losing weight. Of course there are cases and cases, but thinking about the side of someone who lives healthy and feel beautiful, and yet has the "big" body ... this person can get angry watching this, due to how the story deals with the theme .
Acting/Cast:
Just great! The chemistry between the main couple, and the secondary ones. Overall, it was quite natural.
Music:
To me, is the is the smallest score.Not that the OST was bad, just not remarkable. Writing this review, I cannot automatically remember any of the drama's music and that's the point. Other dramas, when I think of them, some of the songs soon begin to play in my mind. With that, it was not so..
Rewatch Value:
Worth it. When I am stressed, needing to see something that enlightens my spirit, and retake this drama ... I don't disappoint.

It had a brilliant cast, with So Ji Sub and Shin Min Ah nothing could go wrong. I love SJS and was amazed by his acting in this drama, I really think his acting has grown since the rigid acting in Master's Sun. Also there were a lot of hot moments with SJS in this drama, which I was over the moon about! (;
At first I didn't like the idea of shin min ah with SJS since I loved him with Gong Hyo Jin the most, but wow these two blew me away with their chemistry! I guess that's why they won best couple award. Also Shin Min Ah is an amazing actress as we all know.
The story was funny and kept me wanting more however there were a lot of times where I didn't know what the writer was doing, or how things tied together. E.g the random stalker. But overall the main plot was good. Strangely enough the secondary couple and plot was all over the place and felt very separate to the main plot. Usually their stories are better developed but the main cast and story dazzled in comparison.
I will definitely watch this drama again, in fact I already find myself missing it.

If I have to hear that goofy "Ma'am!" one more dang time - UGH. I'm 3 episodes in so far, and I'm loving the writing. Our ML and FL are intelligent, witty, charismatic, and have an easy chemistry that I've liked so far. I really love that the ML is empathetic and caring and not the usual cold-shoulder trope I seem to see with ML's. The ML's younger sidekick, Kim Ji Woong (Henry), needs to G O. Absolutely hate his actions and how much he jumps in and out of English for comedic effect. Not funny. Only Ok Taecyeon was good at it in Vincenzo but he's a much stronger actor and more natural with his body language. I have to skip through every time he's about to open his mouth. I guess this is where the "idol-actors are terrible actors" stereotype comes in because I've been very surprised by how strong some of the Idol actors I've watched have been (Lee Jun Ho, Seo In Guk, Park Hyung Sik, IU, Park Jin Young- special mention to Chinese Idol, Xiao Zhan..drool..etc).
This is my first series with So Ji-sub and I can see the allure. He's full of charisma and has a magnetic presence. I admittedly stayed away from his dramas at first because he's not my usual type (I'm more of a Park Seo Joon, Gong Yoo type) but he's got a rough-around-the-edges sexy aura that I can absolutely eat up. I can see some of the usual tropes (hate -> love relationship, son of a chaebol with traumatic childhood w/rough on her luck FL) but it's done in a way I'm not mad at and, as I mentioned earlier, they do subvert some of the usual tropes with how strong-willed the FL is and how caring and empathetic the ML is.
I will update as I delve further.
Episode 5 update:
Omo! The physical contact in this gives me chills! I'm not used to this much actual physical chemistry and TOUCHING in kdramas and I'm LOVING it. The scene on the mat was....especially great, heh. My eyes are bugging out just as much as theirs are, haha. Definitely a more mature drama, and I'm still a huge fan of the writing; especially between the ML and FL. Unfortunate side note- I still have to skip through every scene with Kim Ji Woong (Henry). He IS SO IRRITATING.
Overall update-
Really love this series! I'm a little annoyed by the "1 year later" trope they just HAD to include and how it was executed. Understanding the ML and his decision making regarding his accident is what kept me from being overly annoyed, but at the same time, I *wanted* to see him show his vulnerability to the FL and thought it was so unnecessary for him to seclude himself for a full year during his rehabilitation and not even reach out via phone or text to let the FL know he was OK and they were OK. The viewers are led to believe that the FL is wholeheartedly understanding of his absence though, so we're force-fed that what he did was OK, and I didn't really feel that way. He should have stayed in contact or allowed her to remain by his side throughout his healing process, IMO. It would have led them to get closer, and it would have shown the ML it's okay to not be okay and to show your true self with the people you love the most.

The main leads were amazing. Loved the chemistry between So Ji Sub and Shin Min Ah...they were so sweet and adorable! As many reviewers have mentioned that the story line was very simple but it was the development of their relationship that made it so wonderful to watch.
I only started watching k-dramas about 2 years ago and I'm embarrassed to admit that I've watched over 100 k-dramas and I would definitely put this one on my Top 20 list for romance Korean dramas.
For those of you who just started watching Korean dramas, I would highly recommend this drama unless you're not a big fan of romance stories. If you like this one, you should also watch "Crash Landing on You", "Healer", "WWW", "Fight My Way" and "Because This is my First Life".

Oh my Venus
Entretenido, divertido, atrapante y ligero de ver.La verdad al inicio tenía mis dudas sobre el drama, porque creí que mostrarían la obesidad como algo malo por simple estética. Sin embargo, me gustó mucho que no fuera así (aunque en varias ocasiones sí llegan a hacer pocos comentarios cuestionables), sino que se habla de la importancia de cuidarte a ti y a tu cuerpo, de mantenerte activo para evitar enfermedades, como en el caso de la protagonista.
El romance va de a poco y m encantó eso. Aparte hay varias escenas con doble sentido que me hicieron reír demasiado.
Es muy bueno, me gustó muchísimo.

J'ai aimé le casting et les personnages. J'ai trouvé que les acteurs matchaient bien avec leurs personnages. Il y avait une bonne alchimie J'ai aimé les personnages joués par Sung Hoon et Henry. Ils forment un duo d'acolytes vraiment génial. J'ai aimé que la personnalité des personnages soit tranchée et qu'ils soient imbriqués dans d'autres histoires plus personnelles et moins superficielles que l'intrigue principale. Et j'ai surtout aimé que l'on laisse la possibilité à ces intrigues de s'exprimer à l'écran. J'ai aussi aimé que les choses se démêlent petit à petit dans ces intrigues secondaires (une plus en particulier mais je n'en dirait pas plus).
En ce qui concerne l'intrigue je suis un peu plus mitigée pour deux raisons :
1- On va se le dire : un drama qui aborde le fait qu'une femme grosse c'est mal et qu'elle doit maigrir : c'est pas un truc positif. Ça contribue à véhiculer l'image de la femme qui doit être mince, jolie et prendre soin de son corps. Et nous on ne veut pas ça : on veut que toutes les femmes soient acceptées avec leur beauté et comme elles sont. Donc ça c'est pas un point positif pour le drama vu que l'intrigue, je vous la fait courte c'est : une femme qui se laisse aller et qui grossit, elle se fait larguer pour une fille plus mince donc elle décide de maigrir pour le reconquérir. Au début du drama elle est clairement jugée et critiquée pour son physique. On lui dit qu'être grosse c'est mauvais pour sa santé ... etc. Alors bon ok au final en cours de route on apprend que c'est pas vraiment de sa faute blablabla et ça devient moins moralisateur. Mais je pense surtout avec le recul que c'est pas un drama qu'il faut prendre au premier degré. On le sait : les gens qui sont en surpoids ne sont pas malades (certes certains le sont) mais d'autres sont juste bien comme ils sont et il faudrait peut être les laisser vivre comme ils le veulent (m'enfin c'est quand même pas nos affaires ) BREF. Pour moins ce drama est un peu une satyre des dictats de la minceur justement et c'est surtout la fin qui m'a fait penser ça. Alors je ne vais rien dire pour ne pas spoiler et je vous laisserais regarder pour donner votre avis. Mais pour moi la fin ça veut dire : à quoi bon ? Pourquoi se faire du mal ? On s'en fiche au final vu que c'est passager ! L'important c'est de s'aimer comme on est.
2- J'ai aimé que cette intrigue ce soit l'histoire d'une femme qui décide de ne jamais se laisser abattre. Elle persévère pour atteindre ses objectifs alors que personne ne croit en elle. Elle se donne les moyens d'arriver là où elle le veut (alors oui c'est pas cool puisque ce qu'elle veut c'est maigrir blablabla j'en parle juste au dessus) mais en même temps alors une image de femme forte, affirmée, qui prend confiance en elle au fil de l'histoire et bah ça fait du bien ! Et moi j'ai regardé ce drama à un moment où ça m'a vraiment fait du bien de voir que même sous la critique il faut persévérer. Ce message c'est un bon message.
Un autre truc que j'ai aimé (et en même temps pas aimé) c'est que le personnage de So Ji-Sub il apprend à l'aimer celui de Sin Min-Ah au fur et à mesure en voyant ses efforts et sa persévérance. Donc c'est sur : c'est en même temps qu'elle maigrit mais d'un autre coté j'ai ressenti un coté de culpabilité face au jugement initial qu'il avait vis à vis d'elle. Et puis c'est sa personnalité qui l'accroche au delà de ça. Certes elle est jolie et elle est mince mais surtout elle est combative et elle est touchante. Ah oui et pour fois : l'intrigue principale avance un peu. Oh mon dieu pour une fois dans un drama il se passe des choses concrètes ! Parce que les personnages qui se touchent à peine moins j'adore mais ça fait du bien de changer pour une fois ! En même temps ce drama là cible surement un public plus adulte que d'autres typiques du genre comme Boys Over Flowers pour ne citer personne.
J'ai adoré l'une des intrigues secondaires. Vous vous avez vu le drama vous comprenez surement laquelle et j'ai eu ce que je voulais à la fin donc j'étais très satisfaite ! Plus globalement j'ai aimé la fin du drama et si certains qui lisent celui me connaissent vous saurez très bien pourquoi ...
J'ai trouvé ce drama drôle et touchant, j'ai aimé les personnages principaux et les intrigues secondaires. C'est ce drama là qui m'a introduite dans le genre et je pense que si il avait été mauvais je n'aurais pas accroché.
