Had me tearing up
I'm not easily emotional when it comes to fictional media, but there is just something about how this story is told, how natural it feels, and how relatable that cynical felt that made it all too much. I really felt like I saw myself in this short film, and I wasn't ready for that.I also love that this is an LGBTQ+ short film that's written as love between lovers, not love between lesbians, because that's what a true LGBTQ+ couple looks like. Nothing about LGBTQ+ love is different to heterosexual love, and I like how this film portrayed that.

Hard to love, but I love it a lot.
People have a lot of problem with this drama, and that's okay, but I love this drama to death. People say that this drama has absolutely no plot, but I wouldn't say so. The plot of the drama is a struggle between Gangnam Beauty (Kang Mi-rae) and the natural Beauty (Hyun Soo-ah), and a reflection on the idea that despite not being born pretty, Kang Mi-rae is the one who's prettier on the inside, i.e. she's the one that holds the true beauty.The main couple (Do Kyung-seok and Kang Mi-rae) are incredibly cute, and seeing their love evolve throughout the drama was a treat. I can understand why you think it may be boring, but to me it was a really nice, well-paced, cute, and pure love story.
