I may be a fan of Jang Keun Suk, but this is a wonderfully thoughtful, fun and heartfelt show that kept you on your toes with surprises in every episode! So many shows are predictable, but this one had me guessing with every episode and it is well worth watching. They worked hard to stick to the Manga from which it comes from, so it is intentionally playful. Jang Keun Suk Shows a wonderful actor range of versatile emotions and actions. The entire cast is wonderful. You will love the quirky girl that loves him above all else and you will find redemption in the worst of characters. Erase your expectations except to know that you are about to be absorbed into these complex and lovable characters.
This drama attempts to tell the tale of "the prettiest man in the world" as he, in order to further his ambitions, sets out to seduce and conquer 10 successful women. Okay not bad, sounds like fun light fare in a neat little package easily delivered in a 16 episode format.
Extraordinary story line with great cast and awesome acting skill from Jang Keun Suk and IU. Although this is a romance comedy drama, the content provide good insight which is educational as well.
I had never seen JKS & IU in a drama before Pretty Man so I was hardly a fan girl.
I loved this drama "Pretty Man" with every fiber of my being. The performances and story line are outstanding! Highly recommend!

Looking at title and description I really did not think much of it, just gave it a watch because of Jang Keun Suk. But just 10 minutes in and I really liked it. It is unique, since it is based on a comic, and funny as well.
The whole 10 women thing, they really did not go overboard with that, so that was good. Story went smooth and drama stayed true to itself. Not like other k-dramas which start out good and unique but in the middle start taking clichéd turns...well, yes there are clichés in this drama too but these are only the ones they introduced in the start and were part of the basic story, in terms of drama progression I did not find too many or too extravagant clichés. It was a really fun watch. Acting, script, direction all was quite well done.
As for Jang Keun Suk fans, I would say this drama is a must watch. He portrayed many different styles in it, and I personally think comical roles suit him the best. Also, I think he looked the best in this drama after Marry Stayed Out All Night, or may be as good as that one :)
