    Default 200 Pounds Beauty

    Anyone watched it?? I think it's one of the quite good Korean movies out there.Funny and touching OST very nice as well

    Though I'm not very supportive of PS,I think it's a good decision on Kang Hanna's part to undergo PS coz she's really fat and ugly and she's getting ostracized just becoz of that.Oh shuxxs...she has a really gorgeous voice

    Just curious,for u guys and gals out there,would you have find those ppl who undergo PS "dirty and disgusting"??And as a result shoo yourself away from them and never will consider them for yr gf/bf?? As quoted in the movie,guys are ok with PS but will never want their woman to be the PS one.True??

    Is the two women above actually one and the same woman?

    I think plastic surgery is okay if the person faced an accident that destroyed their original face but I wouldn't condone someone who just wanted to articially make themselves beautiful or to lose weight that way when they could've exercise and work hard at losing weight the natural way. Well, unless they're totally obese and at the point they have to lose weight fast or their life is in danger because their obesity then that would be okay for them to do PS. but PS would normally be a last resort.

    yea...!!!

    actually i dun mind PS if u can look THAT good.. lol... who cares if she has any PS or not right.. just as long as it doesn't look too fake.. (ps, dunno whether the actress had any PS or not.. i'm talking bout her character..) and hopefully their face don't collapse on them.. then again.. not many people will go under such drastic surgery.. not many surgeons will do it either..

    I found the movie very average despite all the hype about it. The fat/ugly and plastic surgery/weight loss theme has been dealt before in several other films so i didnt find the plot very original and the humour was average as well. Compared to "My sassy girl" (which it's supposed to be as successful as), I find MSG more original and funnier.

    i felt the same way.. i dont know what the hype is about for this movie.. the girl even won an award for it..i didnt think it was that great of a movie..
    it has a such a mix message...that girls should get PS to make their life better.but at the same time dont loose your self identity.. i personally dont have anything against PS but truthfully it looks fake most of the time..
    eg my best friend had a nose lift.. you can totally tell..but it did made her happier..that's what counts right.. as for me.. i woulnd't want to spend the rest of my life worrying if a ball hit my nose..it would tilt to other side and i have to get it fix again..
    p.s. i just know this fact..it's quite useful.. anyone who wants breast ehancements..you have to take it out every 10 years to put in the new one bc foreign object in your body for too long can be extremely harmful

    they`re the same person? no way, that's some GOOD photoshopping to get the two in there. but her teeth doesn't look the sameeeee.

    so what is this movie about? i hope she didn't get it to impress the guy... O.o

    Actually, she did get surgeries to impress the guy. It's a decent movie, at least for me. I enjoyed the songs furthermore. The main girl, kind of resembles Jessica Alba, or is it just me ? o.o

    What?! Frankly her acting was very average..raw and stiff even, at times. There are tons of K-drama actresses who are much better than her.

    Her acting was okay I think. The role wasn't very challenging..she was supposed to be loveisck, clumsy, idealistic, and innocent. She did just that.

    This movie is SERIOUSLY overhyped! 10x overhyped. Honestly, what is so great about it? I barely laughed once..at least lame rom-coms like "My Tutor Friend" can squeeze 1-2 laughs out of me. It basically has the same message as Shallow Hal, etc. where ugly women turn beautiful, and then you're not supposed to judge obese people, and the ugly/fat girl doing the real singing for the talentless supposedly good looking singer (god Amy was ugly) is an overplayed plot too.

    I basically took away nothing from this movie. The only redeeming factor were the catchy songs..Kim Ah Jung has an amazing voice. Otherwise, this movie was so average that comparing it to My Sassy Girlfriend, who has a lot more depth, is an insult to the latter. I can think of at least 5 more movies right off the top of my head that beat this one.

    i wont say she did it to impress the guy.. she did it because she's already 'dead'.. rmbr? lol.. she hit such a low bottom which drives her to do it, to get her life back..

    No and yes. It's just photo shopped, but she did have plastic surgeries in real life too.
