My ID Is Gangnam Beauty (2018, Korean adaptation)

Beauty Newbie (Thai: หัวใจไม่มีปลอม) is a Thailand romantic television drama series starring Baifern Pimchanok Luevisadpaibul and Win Metawin Opas-iamkajorn based on popular webtoon My ID Is Gangnam Beauty (Korean: 내 ID는 강남미인!) by Ki Maeng-Gi.[1][2][3][4][5] This production is a collaboration between GMMTV and Parbdee Tawesuk, with Naver's North American subsidiary Wattpad Webtoon Studio. Mui Aticha Tanthanawigrai, who has previously worked as co-director for F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers and screenwriter for Girl From Nowhere, will be directing all 14 episodes of this series. Scheduled to start production in the summer of 2023, this television series is expected to premiere in early 2024.[6][7][8][9][10][11]

Synopsis

Liu (Baifern Pimchanok Luevisadpaibul) is a young girl who has been bullied her whole life because of her appearance. In an attempt to start fresh at university, she undergoes plastic surgery with the goal of looking like a regular student. However, the surgery turns out to be 'too successful', making her incredibly beautiful and drawing unwanted attention when all she wants is to blend in and avoid being bullied. Furthermore, some people begin to mock her for having too many surgical alterations to her face and call her names for having artificial beauty. Guy (Win Metawin Opas-iamkajorn), the popular campus heartthrob who went to the same middle school as Liu and knows what she looked like before her cosmetic surgery, confronts her about it. He reveals that in middle school he had never held any contempt for Liu because of her looks, unlike many others. The two quickly become close, Guy spends most of his time looking out for Liu and begins to take interest in her. But Liu's lack of self-esteem and fear of being ridiculed cause her to reject his feelings, especially when people on their campus think that someone like Guy should date someone with natural beauty like Fay (Jane Ramida Jiranorraphat).[12][13][14]

Production

This is the second adaptation of the webtoon, after My ID Is Gangnam Beauty was made into a Korean drama with the same name starring Im Soo-hyang and Cha Eun-woo in 2018.[20][21] The Thailand adaptation was announced at the GMMTV23 Diversely Yours event on November 22, 2022 at Union Hall Bangkok.[22][23][24]

"It's been years since I completed My ID is Gangnam Beauty and it was made into a drama series in Korea. Seeing how it's getting a foreign remake makes me realize that Korean webtoons are highly popular overseas. I was surprised to hear that a luxurious production team and famous actors will participate in the drama, and I am looking forward to what kind of wonderful drama will come out." author Gi Maeng-gi said in a statement.[25][26][27][28] The original webtoon was published in eight different languages, including Thai, and earned more than 1.4 billion views.

The director of the series, Mui Aticha Tanthanawigrai, mentioned in her tweets that the new version will be based on the original webcomic. It will be set in the modern era and will showcase women's determination to be happy with who they are, not what society thinks they should be. The main and secondary characters will support the protagonist shine in her own way, not just in terms of physical attractiveness. This version will also discuss other societal values that are often imposed on women, such as being a good wife and mother. In reality, however, women have the right to determine their own roles and identities. This is the message that the director hopes to convey through this new version of Beauty Newbie.[29]

On March 27, 2023, Naver Webtoon announced that My ID is Gangnam Beauty! will be adapted into a 14-episode drama titled Beauty Newbie and broadcast in Thailand early next year.[30][31][32][33][34] The production will be a collaboration between GMMTV, a prominent Thailand production company, and Naver's North American subsidiary Wattpad Webtoon Studio, which will serve as a producing partner.[35][36][37][38][39]

Variety has reported that production of the show will begin this summer (2023). Aron Levitz, David Madden and Dexter Ong are executive produce for Wattpad Webtoon Studios, which is the entertainment and publishing arm of story-sharing platforms Wattpad and Webtoon. Sataporn Panichraksapong and Darapa Choeysanguan are executive producers for GMMTV.[40][41][42][43][44]

Due to unavoidable scheduling conflicts, the actress Fah Yongwaree Anilbol, originally cast to play the character Fay, has undergone a recasting process. As a result, Jane Ramida Jiranorraphat has been selected as her replacement for the role.[45]

A multidisciplinary team took part in the production process, involving experts such as a psychiatrist, chemistry professor, and perfumer. Their collective contributions played a pivotal role in editing all 14 episodes of the series, aiming to elevate the show's authenticity, depth, and narrative quality.

After a period of thorough pre-production, the official commencement of filming for the TV series took place on August 18, 2023.[46][47]
