There is an Italian joke, saying that Italian men are the most romantic. Even if a woman is sentenced to two people after putting on makeup, she will feel that she has made money instead of being deceived, because it feels like we are dating two people at a time. In the plot, the heroine seems to be interacting with new men every day, but in fact she doesn't "recognize" the face of the person she loves at all. In particular, I can understand the anger, grievance, and powerlessness of the heroine when she hears rumors about her and cannot find the heroine.
The first half of the movie focuses on the male protagonist's "face-changing" life. From "normal" to "transition" to later "acceptance", he can feel his efforts to maintain his identity. Is a person's self defined by the state of his own birth or by his interaction with others? The single me is not me. Without the presence of "you", the existence of "me" cannot be distinguished. Only in the eyes of "you" can the image of "me" be mapped out.
The HE at the end of the film is a bit awkward. Suddenly the heroine "figures it out", thinking that the mental torture of being together cannot withstand the pain of separate lovesickness, and finally becomes the hero's "attachment". It really complied with "Students can still take off, but women can't take off." Although in the film the male protagonist said several times that he did not take care of the heroine’s position and feelings, and that he fell into the sweetness of love, so he could not see the pain of the heroine, but he just pretended to talk deeply and made a statement. Any attempts and changes to relieve the pain of the heroine. The final breakup was nothing more than a cowardice wrapped in a "good for you" coat. South Korea’s machismo culture is quite hidden.
Although this movie is called "Inner Beauty", it also discusses the theme of "Is love is skin or soul", but whenever the relationship between the male and female protagonist makes substantial progress, it happens that the male protagonist is in the "matching state" most. At that time, it might be better if the hero of the ending HE can appear in a disproportionate image.
