I recommend the modern romance novel," Lost in Old Shanghai." Although it was not quite the same as the given plot where the female lead was fat and ugly at the beginning, the female lead's mother was very beautiful and met the requirements. This novel also told the story of the female protagonist's growth, from a helpless girl to a woman who finally pursued happiness, mixed with romantic love. I hope you like my recommendation.
The information you provided was not detailed enough. I am unable to confirm which Japanese drama you are referring to. If you can provide more background information or the title of the drama, I will try my best to help you answer your questions.
😋I recommend Full House to you. It's an ancient romance novel written by Meng Po Shi Mei. The female protagonist, Jin Mantang, is an orphan who traveled back in time. However, she relied on Brother Dong, Yao Si, a restaurant group, and a young man who met her criteria to marry a husband to start a counterattack in a high-quality medicinal food restaurant. The second male lead is a businessman and is very rich ~ I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~😗
This plot was not from a Korean drama but from a Chinese online novel," The Gold-Hunting Commandant: The Nine Nether General." The novel was a fantasy novel with the theme of exploration, military and love. The protagonist, the Nine Nether General, experienced many setbacks and tests in the process of carrying out the mission. At the same time, he met the heroine, Fairy Mingyue, and fell in love. Fairy Mingyue was fat at the beginning, but after experiencing many hardships and training, her figure gradually became perfect and moving, and her love for the Nine Nether General became more determined.
I'm not sure which Korean drama you're referring to because you didn't provide any specific information. However, the plot where the female lead started out fat but later became beautiful was not a common Korean drama plot because most Korean dramas emphasized the struggle and growth of the female lead instead of simply turning the female lead from fat to thin. If you can provide more specific information or plot, I will try my best to provide you with a more accurate answer.
There were many answers to this question because many TV dramas and novels would tell the story of the male protagonist who was ugly or poor at first but later became handsome or rich. One of the common ways was that the male protagonist was ugly or poor at first, but he met a beautiful female protagonist. The two of them experienced many difficulties and challenges together, and finally the male protagonist became more outstanding and charming, and also won the female protagonist's heart. The other way was that the male lead was ugly or poor at first, but he worked hard and succeeded, becoming a rich man. In the process, the male protagonist also met some interesting people and experiences that made him more mature and charming. Either way, the change of the male lead would attract the interest and attention of the female lead or other audiences. At the same time, it might also cause ups and downs and conflicts in the plot.
This type of novel often depicted the female protagonist receiving help or inspiration from an alien creature under certain circumstances, which led to a huge change. In some novels, the heroine was originally an ordinary person, but after meeting some special people or experiencing some special events, she began to realize her strengths and potential and constantly worked hard to pursue her dreams. In these novels, the female protagonist usually had multiple husbands. These husbands were usually characters from different fields, and they had complicated relationships and stories with each other. These husbands might pursue the female lead passionately or have various emotional entanglements and contradictions with her. The female lead might constantly discover each other's strengths and commonalities in the process of getting along with these husbands. At the same time, she would also experience all kinds of pain and challenges and finally achieve her wish.
The recommended novel "Start All Over Again" was a modern romance novel written by the author, Chen Li. The protagonist, Chen Ying, became very fat because of her breakup, but later she worked hard and became the ruler of the designer kingdom. In addition, she had to protect her mother, who never remembered to love her, on behalf of her incompetent brother. She had to protect the small inheritance her father had left behind so that those ungrateful relatives would not snatch it away. Later, she returned to 1988, the year she was born, and began another struggle. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
😋I recommend the following two novels to you: 1. In "Concubine Ben Bo Liang," the female protagonist had reservations and disgust towards the male protagonist at first because of her identity. However, as the plot developed, she gradually developed feelings for the male protagonist and relied on him. This was a fantasy romance novel. 2. "Sword Venerable, Your Identity Has Lost". The female protagonist was a little resistant to the male protagonist at first, but after experiencing many things together, she became very dependent on the male protagonist. This was a fantasy romance-Oriental fantasy novel. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
"System Rebirth: Divine Concubine, Ruthless" was a fantasy romance novel that might fit this recommendation. The male lead was very nice and gentle at the beginning, but later on, he became very cruel and bad. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
