Episode 11 of Beauty Newbie begins with Faye (Jane Ramida Jiranorraphat) winning the content creator award and showcasing her “perfect life” through a live stream. Liu, too, watches the livestream and can’t help but compare her life to Faye’s. The next day, a teacher asks Faye to represent their university in a research contest at the upcoming International Academic Seminar alongside Guy. She agrees to the teacher’s request. Meanwhile, her classmates starts calling Faye and Guy “perfect for each other.”
After the class, Mimi and Paula praise Faye’s expensive-looking room and Thong Lor building. However, Ann interrupts and says she ran into Faye in a run-down neighborhood earlier that morning. Despite getting caught off-guard, Faye covers up and says she went there to teach some students. Ann retorts and says there are no high school students in the area, only old people. Faye answers she’s there to teach blue-collar workers who didn’t finish school.
Faye then confesses that she doesn’t live in Thong Lor, and some of the stuff in her room are gifts from her fans. She continues and says she worked hard and saved up for the other stuff. Since she lives in such a neighborhood, she wants to present a hopeful life on screen and inspire others. Mimi then apologizes for assuming that Faye was rich. They then encourage Faye to date Guy, saying she’s still perfect for him. Following the conversation, Liu receives flowers from Saint, while Guy asks Liu to talk to him.
Beauty Newbie episode 11 recap: Liu confesses her feelings to Guy
When Liu goes to see Guy, he tells her that he agreed to participate in the contest with Faye, as Liu would want that. He apologizes to Liu for pushing her to fight again for his sake. Guy says she deserves to be with someone who would let her rest, hinting at Saint. Earlier that day, Guy noticed the similarities between Saint and Liu and their mutual interest in perfumes. Guy calls himself selfish and lets Liu go so she can be with Saint as they are “perfect for each other.” Nonetheless, he asks Liu to continue being friends with him.
Saint then picks Liu from university and gets everyone talking about them. However, Liu feels lost and blames herself for making Guy feel worse. She calls herself selfish for not getting over her past and hurting Guy’s feelings. Saint, too, apologizes to Liu for taking advantage of her dilemma with Guy. Instead of supporting Liu and telling her it would be okay if she chose to date Guy, he tried to turn the situation in his favor so Liu would choose him.
Liu then rushes to find Guy to confess her feelings to him. When she can’t find him anywhere, she calls his mother, Linda. Liu finds Guy trying to make perfume at Linda’s office. Despite turning her down previously, Guy tells Liu he wishes to make her perfume and gift it to her as a friend. Liu refuses and says she won’t accept it. Instead, she wants to be his girlfriend. Liu tells Guy that it was her fault for not admitting that she, too, was in love with him. The two then share a sweet embrace.
