She Was Pretty (a bit long and may have spoilers)

When I say “may have spoilers”, I really mean definitely has spoilers so if you haven’t seen the show yet you may want to proceed with caution.

I am watching Memories of the Alhambra but find it hard to wait for a week between episodes, so I have been filling in the gaps with other dramas.  I chose She Was Pretty to watch this week because the Netflix thumbnail showed a very familiar face and I wanted to check it out to see if I was right.  Yes, one of the main actors in this show is Choi Siwon who is also a member of Super Junior.  I did mention in an earlier post about my love for Korean dramas and Kpop, so being a fan of Super Junior and consuming almost every Su Ju video on YouTube for just over a year now, I knew I had to watch this one.

There are sixteen episodes of She Was Pretty.  I have noticed that most of the dramas I have seen so far have sixteen episodes, whether that is a Netflix thing or a Korean drama thing, I don’t know.  I am up to episode 12 now and not sure if I am going to love the ending or not.  It’s not that I don’t love the show, I do and I am really enjoying it, but I really don’t like two of the main characters.  Although one of them is showing that she is becoming more mature and learning from her mistakes.  The other one just annoys me with his attitude and self-centredness, and with the way he treats others.  No, it isn’t Choi Siwon’s character.  He is great and I would love to see him get the happily-ever-after ending but I’m not sure that is going to happen and it really isn’t fair if it doesn’t.  That is why I am not sure if I am going to love the ending.
