LMAOOO, why does every kdrama i start either have a potential gay ship or turn out to be queer-coded.

[nahee-dolove]

I love Lee Min Ki character in 'behind your touch'. It's different from 'because this is my first life' and 'the beauty inside'. Those character were very robot like and serious. Where as this one he's in casual clothes and has facial expressions.

This scene in Follow Your Heart:

Is this scene from The Beauty Inside:

Even the hand shot! I mean:

The Beauty Inside would end up in any Top 10 kdramas list I made and yet I am enjoying FMH a lot because it's basically a period AU of it and it's my fave sort of set up.

LEE DA HEE as KANG SA RA The Beauty Inside (2018)

[shinyturtlelady]

K-dramas and k-reality shows with their ability to make blue collar jobs like carpentry and tailoring looks so fucking glamorous....🫡

No, but seriously, nothing is as fascinating as hearing what they all do for a living. Like, what do you mean you're a live translator? What do you mean you translate for food tasters? What even is that career?

A calligrapher for utensils? How does one think of such a job?

The Beauty Inside (2015) | thoughts |

I just finished watching this movie with my girlfriend! It was phenomenal!! I rarely sit down for a movie so I'm glad this one seemingly happened to fall out of the sky this Sunday.

As an esoteric girl who's interests naturally extend into psychology and art, I find a movie like this one especially perfect. The premise is cliche yet profound which is so attractive for a sap like me who loves to project my ideals onto *everything*. The movie begins in a somber tone (at least to me) as the exposition unravels and we become intimately aware of the recluse and ambiguous life of main character, Kim Woo-Jin. He wakes up a different person everyday,,,young, old, man, woman, he assumes the face of all but his own. With a plot like this, it's hard NOT to derive a cosmic lesson or two from the whole tale.

NONATTACHMENT!!!

Non-attachment is a philosophy you see often in Buddhist traditions and also a theme that sticks out to me having watched this movie. Most of the characters in this movie display qualities of the concept and at varying degrees. The two leads go through a metamorphosis of ego and spirit showcasing how love can exist within the complexities of this long since misunderstood philosophy.

"Love without attachment means being aware that our possessions can break, get stolen or change, and that sadly people can leave or die."

These characters didn't really have the luxury of encountering this ideology in the typical sense through spiritual exploration or meditation and that makes it all the more important. We watch the male lead navigate grief over the loss of one's sense of self. A truly unique plight. We watch him grapple with acceptance over and over again as his life is at the will of his oscillating appearance. By proxy, Hong E-soo, our ever exuberant female lead, goes through several mental hurdles as she learns to love our damned Kim Woo-Jin.

By the end, it felt like I witnessed a complete evolution, one with many stages and nuances. Forty minutes in and I had already gone through the 7 stages of grief. The second act almost took me off this PLANET. I can't recommend it enough! Even without the mystics of it all, it's a very, very sweet movie and the cinematography is such a treat. Give it a watch and maybe remember to let go while you're at it!

My Review of Korean Drama The Beauty Inside.

The Beauty Inside is a Korean drama about a popular actress Han Se Gye, who has a magical condition that forces her to spend one week of each month transformed into a different person. She meets and falls in love with an airline executive Seo Do Jae who suffers from a medical condition called face blindness. At first Han Se Gye and Seo Do Jae are suspicious of each other because of the secrets they are keeping. However as they spend time together, they begin to understand each other’s special condition and they fall in love. Their rare disorders lead them both to face numerous difficulties and they try to overcome these problems together. The Beauty Inside has a happy ending and stars Seo Hyun Jin as Han Se Gye and Lee Min Ki as Seo Do Jae.

[nahee-dolove]

The Beauty inside makes no sense to me. I get that he has face blindness and I get that she changes into different people. But why did she owe his family money? Why is his sister such a bitch to him? I'm only on episode 10 so maybe I'll get those answers. It's just all confusing.

"When did you fall in love with me?" - "when you feel asleep on my shoulder in the airplane. I got very nervous."
