Oh.My. Venus!
Romantic, "erotic", emotional, and funny!
So this is my first "transformation" drama and I have to say that I liked it for the following reasons:
1) Amazing chemistry between the main couple delivered by talented So Ji Sub and Shin Min Ah
2) I'm a sucker for cute scenes and this drama delivered.
3) Promoting a healthy lifestyle.
4) There was no unnecessary intervention from the leading man's family. So basically nothing dragged on.
5) This is one of the few dramas I've watched that didn't go overboard with the soundtracks. The soundtracks where played at the perfect moments.
However, Kang Joo Eun is such a likable character that the fact Oh Soo Jin had issues with her, in the beginning, made me pay more attention to Oh Soo Jin. But by the end of the drama, I wish the writers had spent a little more time developing Oh Soo Jin's character and backstory. The drama hinted that her weight gain was due to feeling empty, so she tried to comfort herself with food. This is something I feel a a lot of people go through. So instead of putting effort into making her a bitch, we could have seen her overcome it through scenes and flashbacks of her "enough is enough" moments, her exercising, etc. Basically there was potential to make her character inspiring rather than bitchy. But of course lets not risk outshining the leading lady. Nonetheless, I think it's awesome that the "I'm going to be happy when I loose weight" myth is tackled through her character. Also, we get to see the side effects of loosing weight to be skinny rather than to be healthy.
Despite that, I really liked this drama and I hope you will too.
