200 pounds Beauty (2006)
Hello there, I’m going to introduce some
Korean movies to you.
Hope you enjoy!

The next movie that I’m going to introduce
is ‘200 pounds Beauty (미녀는 괴로워)’. This movie was released
at December 14th, 2006. The director is Yong-Hwa Kim. He has directed
famous movie like ‘Take Off(국가대표)’, Main characters are
A-Jung Kim, Jin-Mo Ju and etc.
This
movie’s genre is comedy and romance. This movie is about one girl’s dramatic
life. Plot of this movie goes like this. There is one famous female singer in
Korea. She is pretty and hot so she has pretty big size of fans. But she has big
secret. She can’t sing at all! So she uses another girl to sing instead of her.
Hanna, the fake singer, is the one who really sing instead of the pretty
singer. Hanna has beautiful voice and she can sing nicely. But she is.. really
big and fat. In these days, most of singers are pretty and cute especially in
Korea, the appearance is very important to become a singer. Because of that
reason, Hanna cannot even try to become singer.
One
day, her boyfriend dumped her with insulting comments, making fun of her big
body. Hanna get really sad because of him and try to kill herself with
medicine. But that fail too. With all of adversities she got from her body and
face, she made decision to get plastic surgery all over her body. Head to toe!
But she has father she has to care. Her father has mental disability. She feel
really bad for her dad but she get the surgery.

After big surgery, Hanna became BEAUTIFUL
girl! Everyone look at her when she walks and everyone wants to be friend with
Hanna because she is so beautiful. Hanna changes her name into Jenny and start
new life. She becomes real singer and gets big popularity. And fell in love
with the boss of the entertainment who she has loved for really long time. But
the pretty singer who can’t sing, has big doubt on Jenny and find her secret
out and try to destroy her. But later Jenny admits her truth and meets her dad
and make big hit album by her real name Hanna.
This movie was big hit movie with
661million audiences. I think this movie has lots of things to tell people. Why
fat and ugly people can’t be proud of their ability? And it was sad that
oneself changes head to toe and becomes whole new person, losing their own individuality.
We should seriously think about ‘Lookism’ that is widespread through whole
world. The appearance is not all.

The
movie ‘200 pounds Beauty’ is good movie to laugh and think about our society’

Hello! Dahee. I'm Chae-eun. This movie said to us "A person is defined by their actions and their words, not by their appearance." I agree because many people choose essence and they say "You should not judge people by the way they look!"
답글삭제I also saw 200 pounds beauty in 2006. At that time, I saw the movie interesting since it had become the talk of the town. The topic was surgery. Maybe the main idea was "Lookism is rampant in our society, so many people want to surgery." After I read this post, I reconsidered the matter. It was time to think about the matter. Thank you!
Hello, Dahee. I'm Sojin! I saw this movie long time ago. But the movie's content is very impressive to me. I also have oportunity to think about lookism. Of course, movie was so fun!
