Perfume (2019) User Reviews

Good Enough

[PennyReviews · 6/10 · 4 August 2019]

Perfume had an interesting story, not that the main plot was something we haven't watch before.

There was a main hole in the story when it came to the leading lady. Although both actresses were really good and they played the same character perfectly, there were some parts of her story that just didn't feel "real" like she really was going to react like that?

In any case, the love story was good and they had nice chemistry. The love triangle was okay too. However, the ending was just too cliche. At least, character vice, it was interesting.

So, six out of ten.

Very good

I think although there are many Kdramas with a transformation story this one is unique, because the heroine doesn't change to someone completely different with plastic surgery but instead she goes back to her younger self after using the miraculous perfume. I liked the romance and there are some funny moments which made me laugh. So overall, I enjoyed watching this drama.

Genuine and Well Done Story About Love and Self-Love

[fake_moviestar · 8/10 · 10 April 2022]

I had very little expectations of this kdrama I had never heard of before. I didn't know any of the actors, and the story seemed odd at first. However I think this is a rare gem in the kdrama world. It speaks about love and self acceptance in a genuine way that I haven't seen in any other kdrama. The issues facing the characters were so real and done really well and realistically.

The ML is one of the oddest and most eccentric of any ML I have ever seen, which made him quite unlikable, although he does have some great character development throughout the show.

The FL is wonderful and relatable, and I thought Jae Hee and Ye Rin looked incredibly alike, the switch from her older and younger selves was very well done. I also loved how they ended it - I won't spoil anything but the characters are treated well. I was very happy with how they addressed the issues surrounding weight and loving yourself unlike other shows I have seen (looking at you Oh My Venus).

I would definitely give this show a shot!

Unbelievable

I think it has a cute romantic comedy and fantasy story. It may appear cliche as a fantasy story but I like that it has cliffhangers that you will be interested to watch the next episode. It could have been better with better soundtrack and more intensified climax in the story, but it was still fairly good. The acting was also good especially the chubby girl's role. I think it would have been more famous with well known kdrama couple but the leads were good and they deserve their roles.
