Still remember the feeling you get the moment your eyes first laid on this drama? Oh yes.
The webtoon-based campus romance broke the taboo of plastic surgery, and kept its audience hooked thanks to an engaging storyline that openly discussed sexism and the social pressure behind the Korean standard of beauty.
The original main trio in ‘My ID Is Gangnam Beauty’ was made up of insecure protagonist Kang Mi Rae, smart and wealthy campus heartthrob Do Kyung Seok, and popular girl Hyun Soo A. They were portrayed by Hallyu stars Im Soo Hyang, Cha Eun Woo, and Jo Woo Ri.
For the Thai remake, Baifern, Win Metawin, and Fah will take on the iconic roles. Fans have already edited photos of each of the actors’ side-by-side for better comparisons. Just the perfect visuals if you can imagine.
GMMTV will be producing Beauty Newbie, and although the show has plans to air in 2023, there’s already a teaser trailer for fans to get excited over.
In the series, Win plays the role of Karin Sayapisit while Baifern portrays the role of Prima Paspimol. Joining Win and Baifern in the series are Great Sapol and Fah Yongwaree.
