Drama Special Season 2: Hwapyeong Princess's Weight Loss (2011)

This movie is hilarious, romantic, motivational, about forgiveness and yet it is realistic in some ways. It successfully portrayed that some people judge people on their looks, in this movie, the female lead being "fat" the reason she was mistreated. But again, some criticism may motivate someone to make him/herself improve to the better, some do it for the bad reason, that is, getting revenge.

I learned in this movie that, no one is a winner in getting revenge and so it's true about "If you plan to have a revenge, make two graves." And forgiveness is still the best thing to do.

I like this movie, it is very entertaining, especially the "rap song", those wacky acting of the female lead. I cried too at the climax of the movie where the princess confronted her estranged husband.

All in all, you can learn something from this. Some may not approve on the ending but, in real life, some are just forgiving and loving their someone significant that way.

I'm normally so hard to please when watching a film or series, a bad thing about being a film studies student for so long! But I really found myself enjoying this, as it seemed to have had everything you wanna see, drama, the scenes that make you laugh out loud and makes you wanna rewind to see it again, and of course romance. And of course when you feel like the actors are good it makes the film that bit more enjoyable. But it completely let me down in the end as throughout it seemed to be building and building on something and then all I was left with was empty inside. Unfortunately because of that I don't think it would be a film I'd watch again and why I had to give it a lower score.

Childish and disappointing

Childish comedy about an extremely fat, kind-hearted but also very stupid woman who decides to marry a man she loves without thinking that he is not in love with her. When she realizes the situation, she decides to shed weight and puts on a brave effort. But the ending will leave you seething with anger and disappointment. Not that the rest of it, full of silliness and cringe-worthy slapstick, is anything worth spending one hour of your precious life for. I sincerely regret it: cleaning behind the refrigerator would have been much more enjoyable, and it would have left me with a sweet sense of achievement, whereas this has left me grumpy and irritable for having wasted my time. Ugh!
