Chogiwa – True Beauty is the latest TvN’s drama which has been becoming a hot topic recently. However, not a lot of people realize why this drama is so highly-anticipated.
If you are a newbie in Korean Drama, the five reasons below may help you understand why you should watch True Beauty.
#1 Adapted from Popular Webtoon
The very first reason why you should watch True Beauty is that this drama is adapted from a popular webtoon. If you are not so into webtoon, perhaps it is the right time to start peeking a little bit of this world.
True Beauty is very popular among webtoon readers which stays as the top webtoon even after the very first day this webtoon published in April 2018 by Yaongyi.
The interesting fact is the webtoon is not even finished, so it is still an on-going webtoon. In other words, even the readers of the webtoon would not be able to guess how the drama will end. That is why watching the drama is even more appealing for both reader and non-reader of the webtoon.
#2 Choices of Casts

It is not easy to make a drama based on a webtoon character because readers of the webtoon must have a specific expectation toward the choice of casts whether they will fit the character or not. It is a classic case and of course a challenge that should be accomplished.
However, you don’t need to worry about the choices of casts in True Beauty. Especially for the three main casts, Im Joo Kyeong, Lee Suho and Han Seo Jun have been cast carefully, so not only their personality but also their looks are similar to the webtoon characters.
There is no better options but Moon Ga Young as Im Joo Kyeong, Cha Eun Woo as Lee Suho, and Hwang In Yeop as Han Seo Jun. From several interviews, all of them have been working really hard so they could portray the characters perfectly.
In other words, the choice of casts is also one of the reasons why you should watch True Beauty.
#3 Full of Visuals

Moon Ga Young is one of the talented actresses who has been starring in several dramas, she has been praised for her acting in several dramas such as Heartstrings, Tempted, Welcome to Waikiki 2, and Find Me in Your Memory. Her movie projects are also quite impressive for her age.
Second is Cha Eun Woo, debuted as the member of South Korean’s popular group idol ASTRO, he has been well-known to be a great performer. He has been starring several hit dramas and web dramas such as Gangnam Beauty and Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung.
Hwang In Yeop, compared to Moon Ga Young and Cha Eun Woo is considered as a rookie actor and his list of drama is probably not as impressive as his both co-stars in True Beauty but he received recognition and even has been praised for his acting in his previous dramas such as when he portrayed a loyal warrior named Park Dan Ho in the drama The Tale of Nokdu or when he portrayed a character name Goo Ja Sung, a bully who turned to be a sweet boy just because he likes a girl in 18 Again.
