Nice little drama that teaches us that real beauty doesn't come from makeup, surgeries, or facial reconstruction.
I liked how the writers showed the struggle women go thru to be beautiful in society's standards. The torture many of us go thru just to fit into these standards. But, in the end is the sacrifice truly worth it? I related to Wei Lei and Meng Hui so much because I feel like what they went thru many women do just to be liked and seen as beautiful. Xu was also a representation to of this too but her journey ended up in a bad place because she let all of the bad qualities in life and around her consume her.
Meng Hui's struggle showed us that true beauty comes between all of us. She could have been a very bitter individual because of the scar on her face but she didn't let it ruin her life. She developed PSTD to cope but in the end it was her strength and love that made her overcome the pain of the past. it was fun watchng her in her bolder personality though lol.
The writers also put in the effects of bullying and what it can do to a person. I liked the ending message that children are not evil, they just need to be taught respect, empathy, strenght when dealing with a bully.
Mental health was portrayed here too and even if it wasn't handled completely well I thought it was written well. Shen Yi was an example of how guilt, stress and pain can make a person become closed off to the world but like MH he was able to overcome it.
One of the most important characters was Sui An he was the bully who changed because of what he did and just wanted to atone for his past misdeeds. Again showing how children are not evil if they are bullies and can learn from their past misdeeds. His journey was well executed.
The cast was all good esp the supporting characters like Wei Lei. There were many moments I loved her more than the main cast. The protagonists had good chemistry together and was a pleasure watching them act together.
The music was ok. Turn it around was my favorite part of the OST.
Overall I gave this a 8.5. The drama did have some cliches and some characters annoyed me at times. And I did feel like MG dragged a little when a certain character was introduced but overall I enjoyed it.
