First Thoughts: The Beauty Inside

I'm three episodes into this drama, and I plan to keep up the momentum. I was a fan of Lee Min-ki in "Because this is my first Life," so I put this in my queue for a rainy day. Basic premise is our main characters both have some unusual circumstances. Han Se-gye (Seo Hyun-jin) is a top Hallyu star who transforms into a completely different person for one week out of each month. Where as Seo Do-jae (Lee Min-Ki) suffers from Prosopagnosia or face blindness. However, he can somehow recognize Se-gye even when she is someone else. Already, the two have a unique tension which makes me want to see how the relationship evolves. Han Se-gye may not have the wealth and power as an actress compared to Do-jae who owns an airline (and follows the stereo-type in dramas of being the only male heir in his family), but she makes up for it in spunk and intelligence. The fashion, sets, and styling are top notch, but not over the top. Throw in veteran K-drama actor, Ahn Jae-hyun as our heroine's best friend and aspiring priest, there is a brevity and freshness to this drama which is holding my interest, and it is scratching the itch while I wait for "I hate you, Juliet," and "The Legend of White Snake."

First Impressions: Watch it!
