One of the most beautiful korean shows of 2023. Cinematography was creative and aestheticly done throughout the series. The main highlights were episode 1 and 7.
For those that like heavy-scripts, comedic horror and ill-fated tragedies.
Do not watch trailer. It spoils everything. Watch it blind.

Good Enough
Korean Drama " Mask Girl " is a mini series with a suspenseful story.The drama is bold, with mature themes, dark scenes, black humour, and a lot of murders. It spans over many years, telling the story of Momi, a girl with a mask literary and metaphorically. And even though the time jumps didn't do the drama any favours, often messing and confusing the plot, while spoiling the momentum, the story itself is enough griping to keep things interesting. The ending was also shocking and perfect for the story.
The performances, in addition, were outstanding, especially by the leading ladies who did great portraying Momi throughout the years.
So, overall, seven out of ten.

"Meu sonho? Meu sonho é ser amada por todos!"
Mask Girl para mim foi um dorama muito rápido de assistir, em um único dia eu terminei todos os episódios. Não é difícil se apegar a história da Mo Mi, é só triste de assistir. Com o passar dos episódios da para perceber que as pessoas fizeram com que ela acreditasse que ser amada está diretamente ligada a aparência, que os sonhos dela não podem se realizar pela aparência dela. É triste que toda vez que ela tenta dar um passo adiante porque quer ser amada acaba sendo usada, humilhada ou assediada. E mesmo depois disso tudo, depois de tudo que sofreu, é sempre vista como a vilã da história.O roteiro é bem realista na sua visão de como aqueles que não se encaixam no padrão são tratados pelo resto da sociedade. Um exemplo disso é o quanto eu vi as pessoas comentarem sobre a Nana, a Go Hyun Jung ou até mesmo a atriz que faz a Chun Ae, mas pouco comentários sobre o trabalho da Lee Han Byul, que fez a primeira Kim Mo Mi da fase adulta. Na verdade, no começo, tive até uma dificuldade para encontrar o nome dela, felizmente tinha aqui no site.
O roteiro é bom, todas as atuações são ótimas. O dorama é incrível, eu adorei.

Mask girl ?
I went into this drama completely blind, I thought it was just about a girl who has a dream to become an idol but I was so wrong it's much more than that, So before watching this drama I'm going to write the trigger warnings so you guys know what you're getting yourselves into. TW: Rape, Sexual Assult, Cyber Bullying, Bullying, Self Harm, AssultThis series is rated 18 for a reason so please keep this in mind when watching this drama as it is not an easy watch. Other than that this drama is amazing and got me hooked from the first episode. The story of Momi is both beautiful and traumatic, Mask Girl tells the story of a girl called Momi who wants to become an idol but as she gets older she gets "uglier" and even though she has so much talent she possibly could never become an idol, So what she decides to do is start going live on a website where she can dance and show her talent but she needs to wear a mask so that people don't judge her on her looks and just see her for her talent, while doing this she gets a fan whos a sasaeng, she works as an office worker and has a huge crush on her boss but she finds out he's in a relationship with someone else in the office and decides to out there relationship out of jealously this results in the boss and the girl losing their jobs. I'm not going to spoil any more of the drama so if you want to watch it please beware of the TW and take care of yourselves other than that enjoy this amazing thriller.

POVs Galore
I jumped into this with hopes of something that hooked me - and it indeed did.If you're looking for a multiple POV storyline with a sprinkle of mystery and violence, then this is for you!
But the story fell short halfway through. I couldn't truly tell what kind of mystery I was watching and what on earth was going on with the character switches. It was an intriguing storyline and interesting execution in terms of storytelling.
Such a flow has its ups and downs, and to me personally, the downs were more apparent.
I wish there was more fleshed out in this show with less time jumps and more to each character. Rather the 7 episode limit gave a relatively superficial view of all the characters and no way to truly understand the intentions and development of each character.
The story was okay, the production great and the acting okay as usual. A 7/10 from me ^^

La verdad es que me esperaba la historia de otra manera. Antes de comenzar a verlo ya sabía que era un Kdrama con crítica hacia la belleza y sobre todo hacia la sociedad que está obsesionada con la belleza y el límite que alcanzan para conseguirlo. Sin embargo, he visto otros dramas con una crítica igual o muy similar y me ha gustado mucho más que este. Sí que entiendo la parte de la crítica pero llegó a un punto en el que creo que han utilizado la violencia por utilizarla porque tampoco la veía muy justificada. Terminó siendo una serie con violencia tras violencia. Por lo tanto, es un factor a tener en cuenta si vas a empezar a verla, por si no eres de ver series con violencia o te resulta desagradable.
La verdad es que mientras que lo veía nada más que hacía pensar que hubiera sido una historia que hubiera disfrutado muchísimo más en formato película que en formato mini serie.

Like entering a deserted alleyway at night - tread carefully.
There are a lot of dark truths depicted in this drama.It starts with Kim Mo Mi's childhood dream of making it big as an entertainer. She has the body and the talent, however, her face does not conform to societies standards of beauty. Her solution to wear a mask and live stream fulfills this desire,
Her fans are men who lust after her and during a brief encounter with a shamelessly flattering man she is attacked and almost raped. The man is accidentally injured and her rescuer is another fan who has been stalking her. Her instinct is to call the police but she is persuaded by Joo Oh Nam that he will fix things.
Each chapter reveals more about the the individuals.
Their fears and lack of autonomy leading to reaction without plans. We learn some of their back story and how their family upbringing has emotionally crippled them.
The decisions made are reactions that they justify;
She asked for it
He deserved it
God wants me to punish her
I was pulled into the drama by the terrific acting and the moody lighting and sets. A tawdry element overlaid with gritty reality and a serious lack of glamour is reflected in the choice to have plastic surgery to become beautiful but still have the inner ugliness show through.

if you're looking for a dark drama with A LOT of twists this is the drama for you
if you're tired of happy dramas and whatever and want a deep one i highly suggest this onealthough i really didn't like some of the scenes at the start and i'm sure it made some people drop this, but those who didn't are in a treat. there are 3 main characters and the drama cycles through in such a unique way that make every episode diffirent from the other, i didn't like it at first but now that i think about it's very creative
the story is deeeeep and has a lot of dark twists, this ain't for softies out there sorry
imo it progressively gets better and better and the ending is just epic, not gonna spoil it but it's very much worth the watch
i found the story VERY unique and it got me wanting to see the next episodes every time,it has a strong mystery vibe for it and plot twists
overall a very good drama apart some off putting scenes at the start, the end is what really made me write this review tho
it's just so good !

Definitely a well-built revenge story that never feels pointless or stupid as it often happens with other dramas inside this subgenre.
The casting was on point. A group of amazing actresses that were able to handle this story without the big presence of a male star, still quite rare in the drama world.
Definitely would recommend to people that aren't used to watching Asian TV / people looking for a drama that feels like something you'd watch on American TV.
9/10.

Questa serie ha saputo prendere un tema già trito e ritrito trattandolo in maniera totalmente diversa ,senza mai scendere nel banale con i soliti stereotipi. Come ben sappiamo l'aspetto esteriore è il nostro "primo biglietto da visita" e in paesi come la Corea del Sud questo vale ancora di più.
