This is my first time writing a review for drama shows (and in a long time) so I will try and be as critical as I can and not give too much away ^^; I watched this off dramacrazy.net with English subtitles, so if you're having trouble finding it, that's the place to go. A good watch or a time-waster? Overall, I would say it's a time-waster. It had a good moral to the story but it wasn't presented as strongly as I hoped from reading the plot summary so this was one disappointment. I expected... so much more of a lesson in this movie. More emotional, more thought-provoking just like '200 Pounds Beauty', answering the question of: why do we change for love? And that size doesn't matter, we should love our inner selves not the outer etc. Kang Do Kyeong's (Lee Hyun Jin - who also starred in 'Heartstrings') acting in this movie was good; he played his role well. However, I didn't find Lee So Jung (Do Ah Ra) convincing enough to *believe* and understand the reason why she changed her size for love unlike Kim A Joong as Han-Na in '200 Pounds Beauty'. Despite that, there were some humour in some places and I grew to warm up to Do Ah Ra because of her improved personality and better relationship with her brother but still felt this was a let down. So overall, I would give it 5/10.
