“The Beauty Inside†Reveals More About Main Cast, Unveils Beautiful Character Posters

New character posters have been released for the main cast of JTBC’s “The Beauty Inside.â€

Each of the four main characters is represented by bold colors: a multi-colored geometric pattern for Han Se Gye (Seo Hyun Jin), who lives in someone else’s body for one week out of every month; blue for the cynical Seo Do Jae (Lee Min Ki); red for the chic and ambitious Kang Sa Ra (Lee Da Hee); and yellow for the innocent soul Ryu Eun Ho (Ahn Jae Hyun).

 

Han Se Gye is a top actress who is praised for her chameleon-like acting abilities, nicknamed the “100-sided beauty.†But because of the secret she harbors about her changing face, she is followed by countless rumors and scandals. Han Se Gye’s poster reads, “Will you recognize me next month too?â€

Seo Do Jae is the director of an airline company who is overall perfect in appearance and intelligence, other than his inability to recognize others’ faces. The blue of his poster represents the external chill of the character, offset by the warmth of his slight smile. His poster reads, “Don’t worry. Even if I can’t recognize others, I will know who you are.â€

Kang Sa Ra is the CEO of the airline company One Air, so full of ambition she’s determined to take down Seo Do Jae. Her poster says, “I can obtain anything I want. Even if it’s love that I have to fight the gods for!â€

Ryu Eun Ho is the most innocent of souls and an aspiring priest. He’s a good friend of Han Se Gye, and holds her secret in close confidence. And strangely, despite being opposite extremes in terms of personality, Ryu Eun Ho feels an attraction to the cold Kang Sa Ra. His poster says, “Oh Lord, [don’t let me get caught up] in trials, no… don’t let me get caught up in love.â€

The cast of “The Beauty Inside†is full of energy as they work together behind the scenes.

“The Beauty Inside†is about the romance between Han Se Gae (played by Seo Hyun Jin), who lives with someone else’s face for one week each month, and Seo Do Jae (played by Lee Min Ki), who can’t differentiate between people’s faces. The drama will be directed by Song Hyun Wook, who previously directed “Another Oh Hae Young†and is written by Lim Meari.

 

 

In the released photos, the four leads show off their bright energy behind the scenes. Seo Hyun Jin keeps herself cool with a handheld fan, while breezily posing for the camera with a finger heart. Lee Min Ki, compared to his charismatic and chic character, smiles sweetly while looking over a script. They show great chemistry as they hang out together on set.

Ahead of the premiere, the cast of “The Beauty Inside†expressed their excitement for the drama and pointed out what to look forward to.

 

“The Beauty Inside†is about a top actress named Han Se Gae who suffers from an unusual condition that causes her to live a week out of every month with a different appearance and a man named Seo Do Jae who can’t recognize people’s faces. The story surrounds their budding romance and issues that arise from their conditions.

 

There’s much anticipation for the drama due to the main cast’s stellar acting records. Seo Hyun Jin has proved to be a great rom-com actress, Lee Min Ki always brings on his unique style of acting, and Lee Da Hee and Ahn Jae Hyun are expected to show new sides of themselves.

 

Seo Hyun Jin revealed her thoughts on the new drama and its upcoming premiere, saying, “The first episode is coming up really soon, and I’m excited for it. Through working on this project, I met a lot of great actors and staff and have worked really hard. I think that the viewers will have fun watching the drama. It’s a magical romance that you can’t see anywhere else. Please don’t forget to watch the first episode and the ones to come after. From the beginning, there are a lot of dramatic events and fun scenes plus some special cameos that will have your eyes glued to the screen.â€

 

Lee Min Ki commented on the drama, “Thinking about the drama airing soon, I’m excited and nervous. It’s fun to watch these charming characters play out. There’s new and fun scenes that only ‘The Beauty Inside’ can portray. I hope watching the drama can provide a time of healing, and viewers will laugh and relate with the story. â€

 

Lee Da Hee shared, â€œFrom the summer until now, a lot of hard work has gone into this drama, so I’m excited and have been waiting for this moment. I put in a lot of effort and tried my best for every single scene, so I hope viewers will have fun watching it. On October 1, which is the start of the month and the week, I hope everyone gets a great start while watching ‘The Beauty Inside.'â€

She continued, “The story was first introduced through a movie, so there’s a lot of anticipation for this drama. The points to look out for in the drama are Se Gae’s transformation in every episode, her love story with Do Jae, and Sa Ra and Eun Ho who weren’t part of the original story. Guessing who Se Gae will transform into every episode, Sa Ra and Do Jae’s fighting, and Eun Ho’s bickering romance with Sa Ra are also what viewers should be excited for.â€

 

Ahn Jae Hyun commented on his return with “The Beauty Inside,†“I’ve come back with this fall drama that will reveal true love through a magical romance. I ask everyone to please watch this drama. It’s a lovely romantic comedy and a healing drama that everyone can sympathize with. The character of Ryu Eun Ho is healing itself, and it’ll be fun to watch him protect his best friend Se Gae from Sa Ra who is trying to find out her secret and the surprising romance that happens between Eun Ho and Sa Ra.â€

 

“The Beauty Inside†premieres on October 1 at 9:30 p.m.

[beauty Inside] Ep 2 Seo Hyun Jin and Lee Min Ki notice each other's secret  
 
beautyinside.png&key=2c49e3d85e54a615014

 

Article: Naver 'Beauty Inside' Seo Hyun Jin who changed into Kim Seong Ryong.. suspects Lee Min Ki 

 

  • Seo Do Jae (Lee Min Ki) is unable to recognize Han Se Kye's face. But he recognizes her as a person. He begins suspecting her. 
  • Han Se Kye (Seo Hyun Jin) starts to suspect that Seo Do Jae is unable to differentiate human faces. 
  • Dating rumors of the both of them spread. And people gather around Han Se Kye. Seo Do Jae comes and save her.

1. [+459,-50]

My heart fluttered because of Lee Min Ki. Why does everyone dislike the male lead..?

 

2. [+793,-408]

I think if the male lead is Gong Yoo or Hyun Bin, it would be great. ã…  My heart doesn't flutter at all for the male lead. ã… ã… 

 

3. [+262,-12]

It's fun. 

 

4. [+529,-336] 

It's to the point where I find Ahn Jae Hyun who is bad at acting to be good. Lee Min Ki's acting is strange. It's like he's reading from a Korean book. Makes things boring. His expressions are robotic too. 

 

5. [+357,-247]

It would be better if the male lead is not Lee Min Ki but Yeon Woo Jin. 

 

6. [+113,-11]

Fighting, Lee Min Ki-ssi. I'm enjoying your acting. I became your fan ever since "Because This is My First Life". 

 

7. [+88,-5]

Lee Min Ki's acting is good, the drama is as interesting. Seo Hyun Jin is so pretty. 

 

8. [+92,-5]

Because the male lead is unable to recognize faces, it's a fresh set-up. It's fun. 

 

9. [+74,-4]

Kim Seong Ryong-ssi's charms are overflowing. I became a fan. 
 
 

Article: Naver "Who are you?" 'Beauty Inside' Seo Hyun Jin â™¥ Lee Min Ki notice each other's secret.. progresses to romance

 

1. [+1863,-76]

Really, time flew by so quickly.. It's so fun. Lee Min Ki's is like a concept, but he's not awkward at all.. He analyzed his character well. Seo Hyun Jin's acting is great too. It's fun. 

 

2. [+654,-59]

What's at the end.. I was doubting my eyes... Isn't that at the level of a broadcast accident? It's only the 2nd episode but it feels like I've seen the ending... 

 

3. [+587,-71]

Lee Min Ki is cool. ã… ã… ã… ã… ã…  Looking forward to next week. 

 

4. [+362,-29]

It's really interesting. ㅜㅜ I really like Lee Min Ki and Seo Hyun Jin! 

 

5. [+114,-6]

ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ I was thinking what I was watching at the end for a while. Feels like I've watched the drama till the last episode. ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹

 

6. [+98,-7]

I feel like the ratings will go up. 

 

7. [+85,-7]

Seo Hyun Jin has lesser screen time today, but her acting is still good. 

 

8. [+82,-9]

That kind of acting really suits Lee Min Ki. He really matches that Because This is My First Life character well.

  • Beauty Inside: Episode 2

beautyinside-02-00105.jpg

 

On the brink of discovery, Se-kye bends over backwards to keep her secret hidden from Do-jae, whose curiosity threatens to find her out. In contrast to the usual setbacks from his condition, Do-jae’s face-blindness yields sharper instincts to detect her secret. In Se-kye’s scurry to cover up her tracks, she suspects something unusual about Do-jae and tries to pinpoint his Achilles’ heel. Our leads are on a wild goose chase for each other’s weaknesses, which sounds like a fun and inadvertent way to fall in love.

 

 

EPISODE 2 RECAP

beautyinside-02-00004.jpg beautyinside-02-00005.jpg

 

We witness the range of Se-kye’s once-a-month week-long transformation: people of all genders, ages, and regions of the world. Though she wanted to die at first, she eventually came to accept that these different faces were still her, and she wanted to live. In her various bodies, we see Se-kyes introducing herself as Han Se-kye.

On the airplane, Se-kye suddenly runs to the bathroom and experiences a transformation. Looking at the new face (Kim Sung-ryung) in the mirror, she wishes she could disappear. Do-jae breaks open the door and covers her with a blanket at her desperate request. As he covers her, she looks to him and wonders why his eyes didn’t quiver at her unfamiliar face.

 

beautyinside-02-00008.jpg

 

Se-kye walks through the terminal under the blanket and endures curious gazes of passerby. Do-jae assures her that he has no interest in her circumstance, which seems to offend her. Regardless, he tells her to trust him as he guides her out of the terminal.

When manager Woo-mi spots covered Se-kye at the exit, she immediately takes her from Do-jae’s arms and sheepishly explains that Se-kye must be tired. As they run out of the terminal, Se-kye drops her name-engraved necklace, and Do-jae picks it up. Then, we see a stealthy paparazzi photographing them. In the van, Se-kye worries that her secret has been discovered, much to Woo-mi’s distress.

COMMENTS

Although I’m not convinced that Do-jae recognizes Se-kye simply by her essence just yet, that last scene was super sweet. He said the exact words she wanted to hear, and I appreciate how gentle he is with Se-kye when she’s vulnerable. Even though Do-jae is starting to blur Se-kye’s face with her transformed body, I think it’s still deductive reasoning and Se-kye’s poor cover-ups that help him recognize her. Do-jae has mainly used other elements of people’s features, like hair or clothing, to identify them, so I wonder if that’s still the case with Se-kye. To me, the close-ups on Se-kye’s necklace and ring seem to indicate that Do-jae still depends on these items to identify her, so I’m curious to see how Do-jae will recognize her without these items later down the road.

​

 

I love the chemistry of these two leads, whether they’re in petty banter or intense rivalry. Their pride won’t let them miss a beat when trying to one-up each other, and that tension definitely built up to the brim in their confrontation in the closet. It’ll interesting to watch how these cameos (read: transformations) affects the chemistry. It’s too early to say, but I did find myself looking forward to Seo Hyun-jin’s return as Se-kye. This show depends on the chemistry of these two, so I hope we don’t lose Seo Hyun-jin too often. The main couple has too much untapped potential!

I was hoping to get more of the Sa-ra and Eun-ho development from this episode, but I guess that’s something to look forward to. They’ll surely be a fun unlikely pair, and I think Eun-ho’s delightfully dim character at odds with Sa-ra’s cold sophistication will be a source of hilarious hijinks. Apart from the romantic pairings, I’m enjoying the cute interactions between Do-jae and his secretary as well as among the trio of friends. These interactions shine light on Se-kye and Do-jae’s respective conditions and how they’ve coped with their obstacles thus far. But having our two strange individuals learn each other’s secret will surely throw a wrench in the works, and I can’t wait for more chaos to unfold.

Ok I am hooked already.

 

Loving the cameos.

 

Seo Hyunjin and Lee Dahee are queens so how could I not watch. Also have a soft spot for Ahn Jaehyun. Ngl I expected him to be worse based off what people say about his acting but so far he hasn't come across that way yet.

 

you mean ahn jaehyun right? i enjoyed his character (eunho) so much, hes so funny especially the part when Han SeKye changed to someone else lol trollfaceplz.png

Yes Ahn Jaehyun. He's known to be a bad actor and those legendary gifs of him getting shot don't help his case. 

 

But he doesn't stick out badly here which is good. I think it might be because he's character is a bit on the simpler side which helps him out.

 

yeah, guess i agreed w/ ya  hurrplz.png

No, but why does she keep coming out as if nothing happened? Who exactly has her back...? Majority doesn't like seeing her, but she still managed to crawl out. What is the reason exactly? I'm curious. I'm enjoying Beauty Inside. But now I don't feel like watching it so much. 


6. [+42,-1]
No, but why do they keep using someone like her? Who exactly has her back that she can keep getting roles even after huge scandals? 


7. [+42,-1]
She ruined T-ara.
