Yeosin Gangnim

Tired of being looked down upon for her unattractive appearance, middle schooler Lim Jugyeong turns to the transformative powers of makeup. First, she experiments with BB cream, lip tint, and eyeliner; then she begins using mascara, double eyelid glue, and colored contacts. Before she knows it, Jugyeong goes from being a girl who is bullied for her ugliness to being praised as a high-class beauty. Constantly surrounded by those who adore her goddess-like appearance, Jugyeong can now live a more than comfortable life at school—she simply has to keep her bare face a secret.

However, everything changes when the new transfer student, Lee Suho, enters her life. Not only does the handsome Suho become immediately popular among their peers, but in a chance encounter, he also becomes the only classmate of Jugyeong's to see her face beneath the makeup. With her reputation on the line, Jugyeong must do whatever it takes to hide the truth about her appearance from the rest of her classmates. But the more time she spends with Suho, the more Jugyeong finds herself questioning whether one's true beauty lies solely in their looks.

With such low reviews I wasn’t expecting much from the show, but I was blown away by the amazing colors and looks of the characters, and the intro song that is original to the show? I actually downloaded the song to my playlist for the car it’s that good. The show is deeper than most rom coms and goes over topics like suicide, severe bullying, etc. I really
Don’t understand the bad reviews? There were a few spots where the animation looked alittle funny in moments, but that was just the animation style. Most 12 or 13 core shows have a few episodes ... that are super slow and boring but honestly all the episodes were intriguing and interesting. Great show overall!

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (1/13 eps)

This has some problems, the biggest of which is that the voice acting is TERRIBLE. I watch a lot of Korean TV shows and those are fine, but for some reason, this anime is an assault to my ears. I think it is because most of the voice actors (including the lead) are doing a voice instead of voice acting. In other words, the lead actress sounds like she's shrieking in a weird voice and it is hard to listen to. The male voices are fine.

I will say that I think part of the problem is the sound production. It also doesn't sound natural and ... doesn't fit the environment. In fact, I don't think they change the sound profile once. They probably recorded it all in the same, small room.

HOWEVER...the story is good. I assume that's because it is based on a beloved web series. You want to root for the protagonist most of the time and you want to know how the story turns out. Whether you like this anime or hate it will probably hinge on whether you care about the story or not.

Preliminary (1/13 eps)

Completely unwatchable. As a fan of the webtoon and the drama, this is horrifically bad.

Everything form the horrible art style to the horrible direction and pacing, it's just. An affront to the source material. The art style is very ugly. This is supposed to be a show about a makeup artist and they can't even make the makeup look good. Even the MC's voice is--unbearable. It's too high, squeaky and annoying. Worse, it's extremely cringe. Did they make this for 6 year olds? MC was fine and charming and likeable before. Here, she's just... oh god.. what did they do... Just read the webtoon or ... watch the drama. The drama is even better than the webtoon.

Deeply tragic they churned the original into some 10 cent korean anime. Artist must be in pain. Whoever made this must've either had no respect for the original work or made this for tiny children.
