( The poster looked kind of photoshopped, hence explained the funny features of the leads. Esp Joo Jin Moo who looked very charming in the movie, nearly swept me off my feet)

The movie synopsis:
"Hanna is a lip sync vocalist for Ami, the famous Korean pop singer. Even though she is always ignored due to her appearance, she has always been a bright and lighthearted girl until Amy humiliates her in front of Sang-jun, her secret love. At last she makes a decision of a lifetime; to have plastic surgery all over her body. Her unrequited love gets any return?"
Watch this light-hearted comedy today. The story originated from the Japanese version drama, where the very obese female lead went under plastic for her love. The usual, korean shows just love to tear(tears) their viewer. I heard this movie did very well in the korean box office, hitting beyond 5 million viewership! What a success! Credits to Joo Jin Moo & Kim Ah Joong. Chalaeseoyo! The only bad thing about the movie is they didnt elaborate on the scenes which should be focused on. If they did that, it'd be more interesting. When the curtain draws, i just felt hey im not getting enough from the movie. Get that. Im giving it a 4 stars mainly because of the songs and some of the touching scenes, despite of the cliche plot.
Alright, most of the scenes featured are very realistic(Realistic shows seemed to sell better nowadays. Audiences are no longer kids.); In the movie, when the female lead haven gone under plastic, people were nasty. Even when a friend want to treat her very well, upon seeing her fats burging out from the tight red dress, they went feeling nauseous and showed the disgustion . . (were they even friends?) After the plastic, people changed their attitude. In fact, the female lead in the show didnt solely rely on the help of plastic to become pretty. In the show, they did portray the scenes where she worked herself out on the threadmill to cut down the fats. She did put in her effort you see. As shes 200 pounds, she definitely needed the help of the doctors and such. In conclusion, a touching comedy which is worth your time. After watching the show, many girls were going gaga over the lead, Joo Jin Moo~ Me too, look up a little on his profile and found out that he had a role in Fashion 70s, which also garnered quite a number of viewership and stuffs. Also after the show, i hoped it'd brought more girls hope and spurred them on a diet plan. Me? Haha.
Lastly, the songs featured in the movie were a surprise!! Chongmal Joa! I believe the OST is almost akin to an album of a particular singer. The female lead(kim Ah Joong) has an astounding vocal!! Could pass off an gasoo~ Some of other songs were by the famous group/gasoo - Loveholic, Byul & Youme.
