God is fair, only you have to face yourself

Originally this was one of the countless lacklustre Korean dramas. When Xiao Q recommended it to me, he said it was a comedy worth watching. My interest in Korean dramas and comedies has always been light enough that I just kept throwing them on my computer hard drive and ignored them. I turned it out this afternoon, trying to lift my mood, but the fact was that it was not an easy viewing process. Fortunately, the ending was soothing.

I'm not talking about the plot. The story is actually a bit cliché, and the bridges are also very ordinary. I was touched by something else behind the story—spirit, courage, humanity, or something else.

The fatness and ugliness of the girl Hannah when she first appeared on the stage really surprised me, just as she was reborn and pure and beautiful after the whole body plastic surgery. God always proves his fairness to us with facts, so Hannah is lucky to have a golden voice; the beautiful singer Ami has no singing talent and can only rely on Hannah to sing behind the scenes. And even if Hannah turns into Jenny, with both beauty and talent, she's still unhappy, and the love she's been searching for has also been delayed. She couldn't let go too much, and even lost her friends, her father, and herself because she was too concerned about her appearance. The "fake" body could not bring her real confidence and calmness.

You gain some, and always lose others. God opens new windows for you, usually after closing old doors. Like Jenny herself said, I thought it was painful enough, I didn't think it was worse now. This is God's joke, but it is also the truth of the world.

Fortunately, she finally faced it bravely and found herself. At the concert, she burst into tears. In exchange for honesty, she was praised, and of course she was also despised. However, none of these matters. The explanation she made was not for someone, but only to be worthy of her truest self.

People always seem to have to go through a lot of trouble (even exhausting the process) to understand something. If there is no plastic surgery, Jenny will not understand that what she misses most is Hannah herself; and the male protagonist will not be shocked by her beautiful heart (although she is as kind-hearted and hard-working as an ugly girl), and finally He fell in love with her because of her soul rather than artificial beauty, but there was no doubt that he couldn't find it when she was still a natural ugly woman.

Then go on to say, if it weren't for this film, I would probably continue to hold the original prejudice against plastic surgery. Of course, whether or not to have plastic surgery, accept it or not, these are not among your thoughts, I just started to think that if you can live a little better (and even please the public) if you become beautiful, then why not? And, as outsiders, why do we need to point fingers at other people's choices? But unfortunately, being more beautiful may not necessarily lead to a better life, so it boils down to the heart of the person concerned, how to have the courage to face everything calmly; Changed the way.

It's a pity that there are too many things that we can't truly comprehend without really experiencing them. It is always necessary to go around in circles before learning to cherish the misfortunes of having contentment, as well as to be kind to others. Just like when the male protagonist was stabbed with blood by a glass later, he realized that it really hurt.

Maybe I put myself in this position, but it is still not an appropriate experience, because I have not experienced some of Hannah's pain, and it is difficult to really understand. But at least she made me think more and be more tolerant - some people saw their own shadow and gained confidence and courage; some people have a better understanding of how to look at the world around them, and they know how to cherish and be grateful. That's probably the gist of this simple comedy.

Hannah's father said that only God is omnipotent and humans can only do what they can. But I think that God's omnipotence only lies in the fact that he created all individuals fairly. Since no one has the chance to be perfect, the only one who is truly omnipotent in each person's life is himself.
