New stills

Edited my prior post on Victoria's rumored plastic surgery. My mistake on judging someone for their true beauty. 

she had NOTHING done on her face. it's confirmed by herself,krystal,luna, and her doctor. she's genuinely gorgeous.

Edited my post on my mistake. My apologies. I cannot wait until this is out.

It's packaged as a regular idol drama but I cried so hard in that episode where she finds out she's adopted. Mainly because her adoptive mom is so great. Real feels 8/10.

I"m liking it so far. It has the humor, romance.

I'm on episode 7 now, and oh my God, please watch this everyone!  It is a very funny light drama!~  Peter Ho is handsome as always, and f(x) Victoria is so stunningly beautiful!  She is the reason why I started watching this.  I guarantee that you laugh in every episode!~

The drama has been doing really well unexpectedly since it's a small production drama. 

You can watch the raw version right away here (The eps would get subbed after a few days so you can see the sub in earlier episodes already)

Viki directly licenses with the broadcasting company in China  so I think they got the sub from there. So we can get the sub faster there

I think it's  funny but other than that, plot is nothing new.. Another recycled plot for those watching. In the end of 45 episodes, I have a feeling it will be blissful with a fairytale ending.  The secret ends up being beautiful just as the title entails. 

I also think the story is messy though.. kind of like another one of those fairy storytelling poorly executed by the writer, yet, I am still watching since Victoria and Peter are the main OTP.

@40somethingahjumma, @Ldy Gmerm Welcome to this thread!
The best cheesy scene of this drama just happened in ep 15. hehehee. 

Spoilers: 

Mouth to mouth cpr when Meili was having another claustrophobic attack.
