You Are Beautiful's episode 15 (second to the last) was so awesome it broke my brain. My husband, who kept hearing my screams and squeals as I watched it, asked what the heck happened. I was incoherent. I'm still incoherent. (JavaBeans will do a much better job of talking about it.)
Let's just say that all the loose ends from the whole rest of the series are tied up. What are they going to do for the last episode? How will they beat how great this episode was? I can't wait!
Oh, Manager Ma Hoon Yi, what would I do without you? Probably laugh a whole lot less while watching You Are Beautiful. Not that the rest of the show isn't a riot, but Manager Ma (played by Kim In Kwon) reaches a level of hilarity all his own. Let's just say that there's a reason he's front-and-center in this picture.
In need of crazy schemes? Manager Ma is there. What about a couple minutes of hijinks or shenanigans to fill in between dramatic scenes? Manager Ma is there. Someone needs to stick their nose into other people's business and then do a silly dance? Manager Ma is there.
I'm telling you, there's nothing this man can't do. Kim In Kwon adds his own flavor to the character and makes him a real highlight of the show.
...Of course, there's no way to beat Hwan Tae Kyung's "fightin' eyes." Jang Geun Suk is a master at facial expressions.
I am so going to miss this show.
My thoughts exactly. Also, the chicken-wuss samurai haircut is my favorite. (Not gonna lie, Mr. Dincht here did influence my opinion.)
...when you watch it without the subtitles. (On second thought, I guess that sentence could also begin, "You know a show is in English...")
At any rate, You Are Beautiful definitely falls into the "good" category. Episode 11 ran tonight--and you can bet I was all over the internet looking for what happened. Luckily, Cashewmaniakpop has posted a link to some raw video footage.
Surprisingly enough, I was able to follow the plot pretty well and still had lots to squeal and laugh hysterically over. Hwan Tae Kyung's "fightin' eyes" were probably the most frequent source of hilarity. (I couldn't find a picture of his full-on "I'm gonna eat your face" glare, but you get the idea.)
Also, no offense to poor Jeremy, but he is a total lady. I actually thought he was supposed to be gay for the first few episodes, and this latest installment reminded me why. He's just...really effeminate. And cutesy.
Anyway, check out the series.
