For dramatization

[edit]

This drama is a remake of the 2009 hit drama You're Beautiful starring Jang Keun-suk from South Korea, ahead of other countries. All four leading actors are making their first starring appearances in commercial TV dramas.[1]

For her role, Miori Takimoto had to wear chest compression shirt and cut her hair[2] to look like a boy. "I also want to be good-looking if I am going to play a boy, and I want to be considered cool by girls of the same gender, so I want to play the role with the gap between beautiful men and beautiful girls. I would like to ask you Japanese guys to tell me your secret on how to look cool and boyish!,"[3] she says.[4]

Yuta Tamamori of Kis-My-Ft2, who is preparing to make his CD debut on August 10, 2011, says, "I heard that this is the No. 1 drama in Korea, so there is a lot of pressure, but I want to do my best as the Japanese version of "Bi-On". I thought that Hwang Tae-kyung, the character played by Jang Keun-suk in the original story, was cool and very peculiar. He had a lot of facial expressions, so I want to be able to play that part well."[3]

Taisuke Fujigaya said, "I was drawn into the film anyway. I hope that many people will feel the same way as I did when I was hooked on the original drama. Kang Shin-woo, who plays the same role in the original drama, is a kind, sad, and nice person. I hope that I can bring out that kind and sad feeling. I want to add my own personality to Shin-woo's gentle atmosphere by listening to classical music and keeping myself calm at all times. We will all do our best to pursue our dreams so that this will be our masterpiece!"[3]

Hikaru Yaotome said, "The original drama had funny points and touching scenes, and I watched it from beginning to end in one sitting. The character I play, Jelmi, also has a pop flavor, and I felt that he is a very fun character to watch. The drama has a fun atmosphere, so I would like to enjoy filming with the cast and staff so that I don't drag them down as much as possible. I am especially looking forward to filming the scene where all the members of "A.N.JELL" perform together. In any case, I will do my best to be cheerful, fun, and energetic so that I can lighten the hearts of those who watch the film."[3]

In the eighth episode, Jang Keun-suk made a guest appearance as himself.[5] The tenth episode was filmed in Okinawa Prefecture, and only a small crew went to Okinawa to shoot the episode, which was shot on a tight schedule.[6] The final scene at ANJELL's concert venue was actually filmed at Kis-My-Ft2's concert at Yokohama Arena, where 15,000 fans gathered.[7]
