Saved from bird poo.

This drama is so much fun! The save-the-girl-and-dip-hug-hold-close move was triggered by falling bird poo. Points for effort and slow motion bird poo fall. Man I laughed my butt off.

But try not to smile or laugh. This show is effortlessly funny and feel good.

I've decided the charm of Beautiful Gong Shim isn't in the drama story per se, but the characters and their development. From episode one we already know what is going to transpire between Dan Tae and Joon Soo. But I love that the writers are making the effort to let us get to know them both, AND for them to become friends!!

Man I adore Gong Shim, and I hope the writers never give her a makeover! I think she is the cutest thing ever! I just want to pat her head whenever she goes dinging that bike bell. It's refreshing that she knows when to be humble, and when to tell someone off! It's like a sweet balm to me. (Especially since some of the other dramas I've been watching have made me yell at the female leads to stand up for themselves!)

Gong Mi isn't just an evil sister. I feel for her. Think how hard you've worked to become a lawyer just to have that group of men (dogsters!) minimize you to window dressing. Gosh. I highly doubt she couldn't find work else where. Though looking into Korea's Gender Equal Employment Act (GEEA) and Korea’s labor laws things aren't peachy-keen. Despite all advancements it's still hard for females to get protection after reporting the issue. (Or even if someone--even electronic systems--reporting issues.) It makes me sad. So while it is being dramatized for the drama I think it is a high topic issue in Korea and I'm glad they're touching on it here.

Though that's not to say I wouldn't want Gong Mi to have sided with her sister. If she had just pushed for the woman to apologize it would have been over. But I guess her cover blown. But to me if someone did that to my sister I wouldn't let it slide.

Overall I love the humor and characters here! They're so fun and I love how the entire cast acts together. Especially with Gong Shim. When Gong Shim, Dan Tae, and Joon Soo I can't stop smiling. They all have such chemistry together. Though I wonder how often girls quickly "beautify" themselves and hope that the other people don't notice? Personally that's silly. But, hey, it got me laughing. It's also this fun little game to wonder when everyone will officially meet Gong Mi. Dan Tae has in passing now, and he already knows what she did to Gong Shim. But I'm curious for when Joon Soo meets her as Gong Min is "staking/stalking" his profile now.
