Story wise, this really isn't new or innovative at all. I have watched 200 Pound Beauty which seems to be the ORIGINAL 'weight-loss' story. I haven't watched Birth of A Beauty which seems to be the most recent and alike incarnation of this storyline. How the story tried to separate this show from others, and which it did quite well, is to emphasize the health aspect of weight loss, as opposed to the beauty aspect. The show doesn't try to shout this at you, but it's so imbued in the characters that you just get it.

The antagonists aren't very antagonistic and don't pose much of a threat to the lead characters. That's both a credit to the writing of both the antagonists and leading couple.

What I really love about the leading couple is their strength, their maturity. No unnecessary angst, mother-in-law drama or dead-fish kisses here. It's enhanced so much by the chemistry and ease between Shin Mina and So Ji Sub.

There really isn't much happening story-wise, and this is where the cast saves it from becoming a snooze fest. Shin Mina and So Ji Sub feel very comfortable with each other and it really adds to their fantastic chemistry as a leading couple. It's my first time watching Yoo In-young and I really like what she did with an otherwise tepid character. There's really nothing much to comment on Jung Kyeo-woon, because it seems he was given very little material to work with.

Overall, a pretty light and uplifting drama, but somewhat forgettable.

This is the number one feel good romantic drama of the year. Great main character couple, So Ji Sub and Shin Min Ah, with off the chart chemistry. What an amazingly cute couple. Shin Min Ah, got so beautiful as she got a little older from My Girlfriend is a Ghumio. Her trademark dimples were so incredibly cute, you've got to see how it worked to rope in So Ji Sub. After Master's Sun, I was not sure if he could do another drama, that could measure up. I was pleasantly wrong. Oh my Venus, surpassed my expectations. This man stays in incredible shape, so being a fitness coach was a great fit for him. I also absolutely loved the supporting cast as well. 5 of my favorite male actors in one drama is almost mind blowing. If you understand English, Henry, from Super Junior was a hoot.

Drama was so good, the episodes went so fast. It was funny, it was incredibly romantic, I thoroughly enjoyed it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I LOVED this series but had one problem with it.

As the headline says, I adored this drama, the story, cast, the chemistry was on point the entire series. You can feel the chemistry from the leads and see how it was her health that the main focus even though at first the female lead was more concerned about reclaiming what she had when she was younger. I loved how they explored not only weight loss in a safe healthy way and a dangerous way but also rehabilitation from injuries.
My biggest issue was the ending, it left me wanting more from their journey. They went through so much I wanted a big wedding or to progress further on her being pregnant but healthy. Even a well rounded pudgy preggo tummy in a wedding gown that the grandma looks at happily because she got her big wedding present from them. I needed to see Mr. Coach as a dad with little munchkins hanging on him while he playfully lifts them likes weights.
I think we could have gotten that ending if they focused on the main leads more vs the second leads as much in the last two episodes.
but all in all I loved it so so soooo much.

Minha irmã era dorameira muito antes de mim e, apesar de ter demorado um bom tempo para que eu começasse a assistir doramas, Oh My Vênus (2015,KBS,16) foi o primeiro drama que despertou meu interesse. Inconscientemente, todas as vezes em que eu passava pela sala enquanto ela assistia, achava divertido, então, vi alguns pedaços aqui e ali e gostei do que vi... Algum tempo depois quando finalmente venci meu preconceito inicial em relação aos doramas asiáticos e me rendi a esse universo, tive uma vontade imensa de assistir esse drama por completo e amei a história.

A primeira coisa que me agradou nessa comédia romântica foi a personalidade forte da protagonista, que embora tenha sido traída e largada pelo namorado de longa data, após ter deixado de ser tão bela como costumava ser porque engordou bastante durante os anos, nunca se deixou abater e lidou com tudo isso de uma forma tão bem-humorada deu gosto de ver.

O protagonista além de bonito e rico era encantador, e tão gentil e compreensivo com ela que me fez amá-lo cada vez mais, a relação de amizade entre ele e os personagens secundários era muito cativante também, e o final além de muito engraçado foi exatamente a altura de todo o drama.

My favorite drama !
So Ji-sub is my favorite actor, he's charismatic, a really good actor. I discovered him in "Sorry, I love you, The master's sun, Ghost and now in this drama, oh god, he's Awesome!!!
Shin Min Ah is excellent in this drama too. A very nice love story.
I enjoyed each episodes.. The further we go in this story the more we discover the personality of each personnages, their feeling, emotions and especially their own story. The love story between Kim Yeong Ho & Kang Joo Eun is very interesting and so cute, so many funny moments too. Jung Gyu Woon is so funny !
Of course it's not "The Perfect drama" but it's a really good drama with good actors. I don't know how many times I watched this drama!! haha ! :-)

Oh my goodness. I devoured this drama in four days, I just couldn't put it down and when I went about my tasks not watching it, I smiled like a complete buffoon. It's a feel good show with phenomenal cast, important messages and such sweet moments that you won't need to eat candy any time soon.

The story is quite simple and begins with a strong tempo. This shifts a bit in the second half of the drama and it significantly slows down, using a lot of flashback montages. It also introduces several potential endings, yet keeps going and ties every single storyline with a bow so the final episode is also very satisfactory. However, there is one twist in the second half which I felt was totally extra and didn't need to be used. On the other hand, I appreciated how the drama was focused mostly on health and not artificial things that are so often utilised with the topic it depicts.

As for the cast, you cannot help it but LOVE every single character with a passion. The chemistry between SJS and SMA is almost electric, they play so great off of each other, it is a joy to watch them. The other members of the "squad" are excellent as well. You feel for them, root for them, laugh and cry with them. And that is a good thing, the characters in this drama make you feel a lot, but not in a draining way.

The music is superb, at least two songs are stuck in my head already. I will definitely rewatch this, maybe even during Christmas since it takes place in December as well.

I highly recommend this drama, especially if you feel a bit down and unmotivated.

nothing remarkable

i was excited to finally watch this show since i’ve been recommended this multiple times but i just couldn’t. i couldn’t finish this.

the story itself is nothing extraordinary but it is not often a drama talks about weight loss n being healthy in a relatively ‘positive’ way. i like that the boy trio helped out and the bond they seemed to have created but she was not fat. she was just over a view pounds so it’s annoying to see everyone call her obese and fat. i suppose we can blame societal differences on this.

the acting itself was again, nothing compelling. female lead is fun and carries most of the show on her shoulders because our male lead has a total of 3 facial expressions. 3!!! our side characters feel hallow and flat given that we don’t see much of them as their own people. the side couple between the model n our boxer was frustrating because she literally stalked and forced herself with him multiple times.

nothing remarkable about the music either.

nothing much i could say about this. story felt disjoined and hallow as a recflection of the script and acting. maybe if this was not 16 episodes it would’ve felt alright to be so empty but this just didn’t work out

Sweet, sexy, fun, & very affirming

An overweight professional woman accidentally ends up in several embarrassing situations (the second-hand embarrassment is painfully real…I almost couldn’t watch) that connect her with a famous fitness trainer. After some negotiation and mild blackmail, they work through her health issues and his trauma together, eventually falling in love. His family is rich and famous, so the couple has to deal with the Disapproving Family trope, but they are resilient.

Fun supporting characters. Top-notch banter. Sweet and sexy all around. (Also, that she gains back ALL of the weight in the last scene—and is still loved—feels very affirming to me.)

I love this sweet, lighthearted rom-com so much that every few months I rewatch parts of it. Young Ho and Joo Eun are really cute and funny together, and their relationship is very low-drama. There are no annoying second leads who won't let go, no love triangles, no one trying to keep them apart. Joo Eun's attitude is so motivating and I love her determination. It's refreshing not to see certain cliches in this drama. Aside from the cute romance, the friendships are also so precious. I love Joon Sung and Ji Woong, Manager Min, Hyun Woo (and Min Jun). There's only the slightest 'scheming to take the director position' storyline.

To be honest, I ignored Woo Shik and Soo Jin's storyline altogether because I just didn't care about them at all. They never became likable to me. The other storyline I dislike was Yi Jin's. She aggressively stalks him and it wasn't cute or endearing!
