About True Beauty

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, True Beauty (Yeosin Gangnim) deserves a look (2024). The setup goes like this. At its core: Tired of being looked down upon for her unattractive appearance, middle schooler Lim Jugyeong turns to the transformative abilities of makeup. First, she experiments with BB cream, lip tint, and eyeliner; then she starts using mascara, double eyelid glue, and colored contacts.

From there, before she knows it, Jugyeong goes from being a girl who is bullied for her ugliness to being praised as a high-class beauty. Constantly surrounded by those who adore her goddess-like appearance, Jugyeong can now live a more than comfortable life at school—she simply has to keep her bare face a hidden. However, everything changes when the new transfer student, Lee Suho, enters her life.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. If you count yourself among viewers who want something light between heavier series, put it on your list.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Studio N, Cocktail Media, which means the visual identity of True Beauty follows that studio's craft. Within the comedy category, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Its 6.6/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre. Released in 2024, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
