The web drama centers on a magical mask that can transform the wearer's body and face into beautiful ones. Anita is in the popular girl group, Masera. She had previously been Lee Chae Ri, a fat and ugly woman who transformed after wearing the mask. Yoon Yoo Noh is drawn to Anita because she resembles his former lover who had passed away.

I know this is a short drama but they have put some effort into it. Starting with the lead female characters. Could they have pick girls who were similar to each other. I believe the mask just change her weight. But the mask change her height, hair color, facial appearance and body shape. That should have been a miracle drug not a mask. I kept getting annoyed by the original girl lead because she wanted love but was not really willing to change for it by herself. They made heavy girls have no ambition because of self esteem. But she was willing to put on a mask to fool people especially the person she liked. Sorry but not believable. Then they thru an evil devil like person was doing all these. Not believable. The writer should have improve the whole story. This one stinks.
This was a very intriguing drama/web series to try and rate because I still am unsure of what the overall morale of the story was. It was never bad or boring in my opinion, but it also wasn't overly amazing or interesting either. The story was just there, almost sometimes non-existent in face of serious scenes needed for the cast to have their limelight.
Korean Drama
However, there's something about the story that made me want to keep watching, like an almost mystery regarding it. It made me want to watch more after each episode, because it was highly unpredictable.
The easiest and most definite positive was the acting, especially by Park Jeong Hwa, although I do think every character here was also great, but Park Jeong Hwa was in a league of her own. I also loved each character; they were different enough to make the web series/drama entertaining and had enough depth to make them really believable. Seemed to me like a good casting choice, great acting, great characters. The OST also was really nice too.
Do I recommend Mask? Yes, if you've just finished a bunch of heavy dramas and need something light to watch, or if you're coming from a drama slump. Then Mask is definitely for you.after checking out the first few episodes. It had an interesting plot set up that made me want to watch on to find out more about the mysteries that had been sprinkled throughout the early episodes. But as I get into the drama, what impressed me even more are the well-rounded, unique characters that

Portrays, albeit not all morally feel-good characters. I witnessed the dark sides of human nature, but took comfort in knowing that justice would prevail.
Did have some stagnant parts in the latter half that felt unnecessarily long, but the overall story was a great watch with a fully satisfying ending.
Jump right into the overall premise of the drama and introduce us to the main characters without wasting time. It builds a solid story with enough mysteries to entice the viewers, but withholds some key information for us to uncover on our own. We quickly meet our lead cast, Byun Ji Sook (Soo Ae) and Choi Min Woo (Ju Ji Hoon). Despite being constantly yelled at, Ji Sook works hard at the department store to provide for her family and pay off her dad’s loan sharks. In contrast, Min Woo is a hypochondriacal chaebol who’s in the middle of a political marriage for business reasons. His bride-to-be, Seo Eun Ha (Soo Ae), happens to look exactly like Ji Sook.

Then, the unexpected happens. During their lunch together, Min Woo passes out from ingesting drugged wine while Eun Ha drowns. This scene leaves me flabbergasted and unsure of what just happened.
Immediately captures my interest with this surprise death while the drastic difference in Ji Sook and Min Woo’s lives has me wanting to watch on to get to know them better.
Later, Min Woo’s ambitious brother-in-law, Min Seok Hoon (Yeon Jung Hoon) inadvertently discovers Ji Sook’s existence. Seok Hoon is manipulative and aggressive right from the beginning which leaves a strong first impression on me. He blackmails Ji Sook into taking Eun Ha’s place so that she could be his puppet and spy on Min Woo. With the key premise and main characters established,

Continue to delve deeper into its characters’ motives and relations. Ji Sook begins to work for Seok Hoon under false pretenses of her family’s safety and gets married to Min Woo. Ji Sook and the viewers soon get a taste of Seok Hoon’s true character. His ultimate goal is to take over Min Woo’s position at the company — by any means necessary. However, I’m starting to get interested in why exactly Seok Hoon wants to take down his brother-in-law so badly, and the real reasons behind his anger. In fact, the angrier Seok Hoon gets when things don’t go according to his plan, the more intrigued I became.
I also took a liking of Ji Sook because she doesn’t let her perilous situation deter her from saving herself and her family. Instead, she tries her best to fit in with Min Woo’s family, despite not knowing them at all. She’s comfortable with their maids, much to the annoyance of the family, but it really shows how hard she is working to preserve her old identity.
Min Woo and Ji Sook’s relationship is making steady progress as well. Min Woo initially puts up some clear boundaries, even forcing Ji Sook to take the couch because he’s not sharing his bed.
Queen Of The Mask
But just like every Korean drama with a jerky male lead, Min Woo eventually starts to soften and warm up to Ji Sook. They’re still awkward around each other and argue at times, but you can tell that Min Woo is not totally antagonistic towards her. The drama hints that though our divergent leads have quite different goals, they’ll eventually find themselves working together. Ji Sook and Min Woo’s relationship advancement does seem a bit rushed, but I can’t wait to see how their feelings toward each other will develop from this point on.
On the other hand, the mysteries surrounding what happened to Eun Ha still looms over us. Even if our characters got a half-baked explanation in the drama, we know that’s not the truth and anxiously wait to find the real culprit.
Is that they clearly demonstrate how important yet fragile relationships can be, especially those hidden behind masks. The drama brings to light a fragmented family through Min Woo and Ji Sook’s union as well as Seok Hoon and his wife Choi Mi Yeon’s (Yoo In Young) fall out. Mi Yeon strives for affection from her husband but doesn’t receive it. Yet she still relies on Seok Hoon for everything, which irks me because I want her to do something for herself. Thankfully, she eventually does and her actions serve a crucial role in advancing the plot during these episodes.
Mask Review: A Strong Start But A Struggling Middle And A Hasty Finish
Seok Hoon continues to threaten Ji Sook and manipulates her into doing what he needs her to do — keeping an eye on Min Woo and even planting drugs on him. At this point, I can safely say that Seok Hoon is probably my favorite character of
. He’s ruthless and does whatever he can to get what he wants, with zero remorse or guilt. He’s not above murder either, as we soon find out. But what makes Seok Hoon even more dangerous for those around him is that he’s good at concealing his cruel nature, which makes it hard to figure out his real intentions. Yeon Jung Hoon completely immersed himself in the role of Seok Hoon and delivered a truly convincing performance.
Meanwhile, Min Woo and Ji Sook’s relationship take one step forward, but two steps backwards. It’s great to see Min Woo slowly being able to physically get closer to Ji Sook, working through his hypochondria. But the lies are still standing in the way of them embracing their feelings for each other. It’s frustrating to watch our leading couple being hesitant around each other and putting up unnecessary distance to protect their own emotions.
Glass Mask (tv Series 2012–2013)
Shifts in character dynamics and disclosure of secrets are the crux of these next few episodes. Seok Hoo’s oppressive contractual relationship with Ji Sook takes an unexpected turn as he slowly loses control of her. Ji Sook feels torn between following her heart to do the right thing and obeying Seok Hoon, who made it clear that if he goes down, he’ll drag her down with him. To my relief and Seok Hoon’s dissapointment, Ji Sook’s conscience prevails.
At the same time, Ji Sook’s relationship with Min Woo advances nicely. There are plenty of cute moments between the two that put a smile on my face. It’s great to see the once serious Min Woo come
