A shy and bespectacled young girl wakes up one fine day to find that she is suddenly attracting the attention of boys, something she had never experienced before. She has undergone a remarkable transformation, becoming stunningly beautiful and captivating the interest of everyone around her. This familiar scenario forms the foundation of many popular teen dramas, including "The Summer I Turned Pretty" on Amazon Prime Video. The series revolves around the life of Belly (portrayed by Lola Tung), the protagonist who finds herself in a love triangle.
In Season 1, Belly spends her summer at a beach house owned by her mother's close friend, Susannah Fisher. This annual retreat to Cousins has been a tradition for Belly, but this summer is different. Belly, now a striking 15-year-old, captures the hearts of Susannah's two sons, Conrad and Jeremiah. She becomes torn between the two brothers, while also embarking on new friendships and experiencing the wonders of Cousins. Amidst this, Belly discovers that Susannah is battling a serious illness. Season 1 culminates with Belly attending her debutante ball, caught in the midst of a compelling love triangle. The burning question remains: Who does Belly choose in the end?
As Season 2 begins, Belly has returned home after the debutante ball, several months having passed. Another summer is on the horizon, but this time, Belly and her family won't be heading to Cousins. Much has changed, and the audience is taken on a captivating journey through flashbacks, gradually unraveling the events of the intervening months. We gain insight into Susannah's battle with cancer, Belly's romantic choices, and the ultimate decision she makes between Jeremiah and Conrad.
