Do-ha should totally show up with this hair in front of Seol-woo one day, and we’ll see if he says she’s not pretty ever again.

    I actually find her pretty even in that haircut! And I was so mad at Seol-woo for saying she isn’t a beauty! Like, please don’t give them a reason to hate on her more!

      She is pretty but the hair is not. I wish she’d show up with a long hair just once and shut everyone’s mouth about her hair.

        I think it’s the bangs, when she has her hair styled a little differently, she looks pretty!
        Maybe if there’s going to be a time skip?

          The bangs and the length are equally dreadful. I hope there is a time skip considering Seol-woo is working on a mission, when he gets to the next mission, he won’t be around Do-ha anymore and we’d naturally require a time jump to reunite them. Except, I don’t think it’s happening, lol.

            I think he has to leave, for a while at least, I doubt she’ll change her hair, too.

    I actually think she and Park Hae Jin look a lot alike. Some of their facial features are pretty similar. Personally neither of their faces are making me go “wow”, but why should they? I like that how she looks actually matches how the characters see her (aka not a goddess-like beauty, but just an ordinary woman).

    On a sidenote, I wish dramaland would stop with all the “omg he’s the handsomest man alive” and “ugh she’s so ugly/unfeminine/weird-looking/ordinary” pairings and comments. I’d love to see someone like Lee Si Un (I mean, I find him handsome, but I know he’s not known for his looks lol) in a lead pairing with a gorgeous actress, instead of always the other way around. Or, you know, a couple where both look like people you’d see on street.

      That’s the cold hard truth, beauty sells, that’s how Korean market their idols overseas, with their youth and prettiness. And to be honest, general viewers depend on visual for the first impression, that’s how our mind works. We don’t see a pretty person and say “Well, that’s disgusting.”

      While I do agree that both of them don’t make me feel like they’re beautiful at a first glance, they’re the kind of people that make me warm up to them over time. But this isn’t really the issue here. My beef is how people make this whole big deal about how unattractive the main female lead is and it turns them off from watching. I don’t get it. Why force yourself to watch something you don’t like and then complain to others? And they ruin the recap or everywhere else I go when I see comments like that. So frustrating!

        People do that even on the recaps here? Goodness. Guess it’s a good thing I haven’t been hanging out there.
        I’m fine with people complaining about shows (for instance, I can’t NOT finish a show I started, even if it takes a long time and I find it to be a horrible show), after all it’s their choice if they want to continue watching something they don’t like and maybe there’s something else about the show that keep them watching.

        But what I’m not okay with is people who DON’T watch, but complain on ep-recaps etc (because how can you complain about something an episode you haven’t seen?) and those who turn to personal attacks. Saying someone displays poor acting skills is one thing, but calling someone ugly is entirely different and also completely irrelevant.

        Btw, I find Park Hae Jin to be an excellent actor and really like him overall, attracted or not lol, plus I think the actress is doing a fine job with a poorly written character. They both have a lot of charisma and are very memorable, which in my opinion is much more important as an actor or other type of celeb, than being “pretty”. Tons of pretty people that I’d never in a million years recognize even if I’ve seen them on screen.

          I know right? I was surprised to bump into one of those comments about her looks on DB, I figure people will stop complaining her looks by episode 5. I don’t mind reading complaints if it’s in a form of expression thoughts and opinion, but not if it’s done to promote hating or without a reasonable excuse like she’s ugly or needs to be replaced with another prettier actress.

          And yes, I like Park Hae-jin and Kim Min-jung, as well as Park Sung-woong in this. I never knew Park Hae-jin is a man of many expressions. I thought his character would be two dimensional and boring but it turns out his spy persona is very much human like every one of us. Do-ha, I have to argue, isn’t quite a poorly written character. She has some crazy tendencies, I’ll give her that, but she’s efficient in her job, she makes mistake but isn’t afraid to admit it and apologize, she’s protective around the people she loves and she forgives even when her father hurt her a lot. But of course, this is purely my point of view. I don’t dislike anyone on this show because they’re showing many facets and layers to their real persona, I’m just hoping the romance will start to be real soon because I hate it when a man deceives a woman, who is all too willing to love him!

            Yes, I also don’t get what the looks of an actor/actress has to do with a drama.
            I liked her character of Do-Ha since the first episode and think she is doing a great job.
            Overall I am enjoying the drama a lot and everyone is doing a wonderful job.😀
