A sweet Romantic series (without sugar) but full of wisdom

I don't know why, I wasn't more hooked than that on the first viewing (maybe because it was one of my first dramas :)
On the other hand, I really loved it when I saw it again!!

PLOT: An actress completely changes her physique (face, body, voice) one week per month. Not easy to manage, but one man who doesn't recognize faces, will help her and love her.

Through this plot, the series casually addresses a lot of controversial subjects: gender, the role and status of women, discrimination, old age, mourning, faith, etc.

PROS:
+ 2 fantastic leads (ML = Lee Min Ki / FL = Seo Hyun Jin) who demonstrate all their talent in these difficult roles, and a great cast!
+ Romance 2 is unexpected with an authoritarian and direct FL2, and a kind ML2, torn between his dream and his love.
+ Story well constructed, intelligent & asks true questions.
+ Very good OSTs, (some are now on my playlist).

CONS:
It's a fantasy series, so there's a lot of "dramaland" (multiple twists, jealous villains, gross coincidences,...)

=> Series which fully deserves its high rating (which I will perhaps watch again, just to discover new aspects of the drama)

Je ne sais pas pourquoi, je n'avais pas accroché plus que ça au 1e visionnage (peut-être parce qu'il s'agissait d'un de mes premiers dramas :)
Par contre, je l'ai vraiment adoré en le revoyant !!

PLOT: Une actrice change totalement de physique (visage, corps, voix) une semaine par mois. Pas facile à gérer, mais 1 homme qui ne reconnait pas les visages, va l'aider et l'aimer.
Au travers de ce plot, la série aborde, mine de rien, pas mal de sujets polémiques : les genres, le rôle et le statut des femmes, les discriminations, la vieillesse, le deuil, la foi, etc.

PROS:
+ 2 leads géniaux (ML = Lee Min Ki / FL = Seo Hyun Jin) qui démontrent tout leur talent dans ces rôles difficiles, et un cast de qualité !
+ La romance 2 est inattendue avec une FL2 autoritaire et directe, et un ML2 gentil, déchiré entre son rêve et son amour.
+ Story bien construite, intelligente & pose de vraies questions.
+ De très bons OST, (certains sont désormais sur ma playlist).

CONS:
C'est une série Fantasy, il y a donc pas mal de "dramaland" (multiples twists, jealous villains, coïncidences grossières,...)

=> Série qui mérite amplement son high rating (que je regarderai peut-être à nouveau, histoire de découvrir de nouveaux aspects du drama) ( 。◕‿◕。 )
