Disappointed in the story

I normally do not write reviews for any dramas. But i was very disappointed with the second season. Jojo never took sunho feelings into consideration at all not one bit made no sense as to why she couldn't like him again when she told him that she would never love anyone as much as she loved him. I dunno how the second lead deserved her more didn't make any sense. Like they didn't really explain as to why she had to put the shield to begin with just cause she didn't want to get hurt but how did sunho hurt her in any way.

Either way I wouldn't rewatch this drama. Very dissatisfied

Totally different from season 1

The season doesn’t begin where season 1 left off...it was super confusing. I’m not going to name names, so I don’t spoil anything.

Somehow, they end up dating but it never mentions how they got together. The lighthearted exciting romance was gone from this season and I really couldn’t get into it. All the characters in this season had totally different personalities than season 1. I get that they’re older and more mature but it felt like the story just took a huge turn and a lot of it didn’t make sense.

Watched this just bc I waited so long

I don't like dropping dramas, so that's why I watched this. I read MANY bad reviews and I'm adding this one to the list. The drama was well-performed, the cast was amazing, but damn the story was bland. I don't want to spoil it all, but you probably have better dramas in your to-watch list :'))

Also so many random things? Things left unexplained, evens out of the blue, as if they really did their best to fill 6 episodes? This all could've been conduced in a short 5 minutes episode tbh.

Season 1 was way better, season 2 more mature but not what I expected...

disappointment

I'm going to be very honest so if you really like this season then you might get offended. The whole season felt really forced. It's basically about making Sunoh the villian even though he was hurt the most by being left crying on the streets atleast 2 times by our lovely jojo. In season one I liked jojo because she was actually smart and even though she put that shield on I still somehow understood but during this season I just hated her more and more. Like I get that she went through a horrible trauma but that isn't an excuse to every mistake she's done. I personally don't see a chemistry between jojo and Hyeyeong it just feels forced. As expected Hyeyeong got hurt a lot too. She was bacially hurting them both at the same time and the drama was trying to make Sunoh the reason for her problems. The one character I liked the most was Gulmi. She has a great character and during the season I was always so excited to see her on screen away from the love triangle. Back to Sunoh..they did him dirty not only by the story line but also by the screen time. He was just sad or crying every time he was on the screen. Oh and his happy ending was not it. But I really did like the acting even though it didn't make sense. The OST is really nice too but other then that the whole season was just weird.

If you want the Jojo and Sunoh happy ending or you can't handle a heart break atleast 2 times in a row then don't bother watching it.

Fat load of shit dumped on Fans feeling

Keeping the story aside, Let's talk about their marketing method! From the starting of season 1 they used up sunho and jojo in almost every promotional video, trailer and teasers! hye young didn't get much screen time in any one them! but suddenly in season 2 they shifted focus towards hye young! like what the hell! were the makers duping fans or what! Love Alarm was the most popular web drama internationally and it was a Scam! it was only famous cause of the chemistry between Sunho and Jojo! and what? jojo ends up with hye young with no explanation of why he deserves her more! what about sunho? he kind of got played but who cares! according to writers he got a *HAPPY ENDING*.You call this shit a happy ending? Had they been neutral between both lead actors from the start,this kind of ending wouldn't have been that bad and viewers wouldn't have reacted so harshly! but all they did was just change the lead out of no where. they should stop saying that "it's based on webtoon" and change it to "straight away copy-pasted from a webtoon" . Utterly Disappointed with this drama! had been waiting for it since a year. Worst K-Drama Ever! Dont bother to watch it people as you will get confused more than jojo gets confused about who she loves!

Not so happy ending

I am so sad, waited two years for this show. Just for love alarm to end, just like that. Sun-oh deserved so much better! I will definitely not be recommending this show for anyone to watch! All my Sun-oh and JoJo fans, don’t watch, unless you are wanting to get your heartbroken and are just wanting to waste your time! 10/10 do not recommend to watch! The first season of love alarm was so much better! To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Like why get out hopes up, for you to just break out hearts like that!

Very disappointed of this outcome.

Love Alarm was a kdrama that I just loved. I remember exactly watching this 1 year ago and falling in love. I rewatched it over and over every single day, counting down each day for a season 2, I remember being so sad when it got delayed, and then the new season is just down right a disappointment. First off, like many viewers, I was a Suh-oh shipper. I wanted them to be together so badly, but Jojo was dumb and broke up with him. Because of that, her feelings changed and she liked Hye-yeong. Throughout the whole season, I was honestly just dumbfounded because of this Kdrama. Sun-oh feelings were completely ignored. He still liked Jojo so much that he would never stop ringing her alarm, but Jojo just left him and decided to fall for another man without even EXPLAINING why she couldn't ring her alarm. Like honestly, you don't need to wait for the developer to take the shield off, just explain the situation to him it's not that hard. I feel so bad for Suh-oh I feel like he didn't get a happy ending compared to the others. I understand he's trying to sort things out with Yuk-jo, but it's just so sad how he kept crying over and over because of Jojo and then she goes and chooses another man. I actually cried along with Sun-oh in the last season when he cried saying, "She still loves me...". My heart honestly dropped with she rung Hye-yeong's alarm. I now regret waiting one whole year for this show. No, I'm not writing this review because Jojo and Sun-oh didn't end up together, but it's about how Jojo and the show completely neglected Sun-oh's feelings. They could've like let Sun-oh be happy with Jojo for a bit, but all Jojo did was run away and get with Hye-yeong. I agreed with Sun-oh when he yelled at her after hearing that she installed a shield on her alarm. She should've given him a heads up but she didn't care about him at all and she even installed it so she WOULDN'T HURT Sun-oh but he ended up being depressed over her for YEARS and cried over her. It's just dumb how she was trying to not hurt him by installing it and ended up hurting him even more by installing it. And what? Hye-yeong just swoops by and then she forgets all about Sun-oh and starts dating Hye-yeong? Like atleast give everyone a happy and fair ending. This is just such a dumb show, honestly. I feel like Gul-mi who got any my nerves all the times is better than Jojo now. Jojo just makes me so annoyed. They didn't even leave off on the cliffhanger that they left off last season, it just skips to a completely different time. I'm devastated about this show, I have never written a review in my life, but this show has finally made me write a review. What made up for it is the sound track. I liked Season's 1 soundtrack a lot better, but they kept some of the songs so that's why I liked the sound track. I don't recommend this show unless you want your heart to break and end up disappointed.

I waited two years for this show and I am utterly disappointed ,the only reason I watched to the end was to see if duk gu was alive. Hye yeong deserved so much better and so did sun oh, jojo was so stupid and needed to get some common sense. The first season was much better and had a good story line but season 2 just let down the whole series. I believe that the show would be much better if jojo was more confident in herself and that she brought everything on herself. Like why install the shield just to regret it a minute later.

You’ll either love or hate it depending on whose side you’re on

I was on Sunoh’s side so I absolutely hated it. Season 1 made me angry but I really hoped season 2 would make it all better...It didn’t. What a complete disappointment. Out of all the dramas I’ve watched, I’ve only hated a few characters and Kim JoJo is neck and neck with “average” Oh Hae Young for the number two spot, just under the MIL in Something in the Rain.

First of all, the entire premise of the show is just dumb. I knew this season 1 but I kept high hopes until the end because I loved the chemistry between JJ and Sunoh. Why does Kim JoJo need an app to tell her how she feels? And why is Hye-young so stupid and have such low self esteem to accept the fact that his girlfriend doesn’t have genuine feelings for him? Who does that?! Regardless of the fact that they ended up together (which was the trajectory, clearly shown from the beginning of the season), I still don’t believe Kim JoJo actually wanted to be with Hye-young. She just made herself like him for whatever reason.

Hye-young vs Sunoh

I am NOT a fan of HY. He’s the typical guy who has a secret crush on a girl but too afraid to speak up. Along comes his ‘friend’, Sunoh, the new, cool guy that everyone likes. He sets his sights on the girl HY already mentally claimed as his and immediately goes after her, as he should have. HY proceeded to feel some type of way because his friend seemed to have won “his girl” and eventually gets the courage to confess his feelings. Eye f’ing ROLL! He should’ve left well enough alone and moved the hell on but no. He decided to be persistent and “nice guy” his way into JoJo’s heart. I’ve never rooted against a second male lead so hard. Which brings me to my next point. I did not like how writers made the second male lead the first in the second season. It did not work and I don’t ever want to see it again unless the 2ML is like Baek In Ho from Cheese in the Trap.

Yuk Jo
I liked her character, especially when she broke up with Sunoh because she knew he wasn’t that into her. She did what Hye-young should have done. But then she tried to get him back. Wth? Sunoh only went back because he had lost JoJo and the audience is supposed to be ok with that?! Yuk Jo is a rebound who deserves better.

Duk go
Ugh. Hated him the first season and hate him still. Glad he got a much better haircut though.

Overall, I did not enjoy this drama at all. My blood was boiling from beginning to end.
Sunoh did not deserve the outcome he got. He was hurt and I felt that. Nothing was explained well or resolved properly and Kim Jojo is a liar. She is a major AH for what she did to him and that is unforgivable.

Trash.

I'm disappointed (not just about who Kim Jojo picks)

My ship sank, heart broken and hated almost all the characters and their decisions. I'm very disappointed and loved season 1 but it just made me sad. What I really wanted was a Gul-Mi redemption arc but it didn't really happen. Sun Oh deserved better. I now need to watch one of my fav dramas to recover from this heartbreak :( I hope the people who were shipping Hye Yeong and Kim Jojo liked it but I didn't. The only good thing was the acting but I hate Kim Jojo as a character, so selfish. Anyways, I don't personally recommend .

WASTE OF TIME DO NOT WATCH THIS

season 1 is way better! sorry but this season looks forced. it looks like they were in a hurry while filming this. They did not give any justice to sun oh's character here. The girl's character here is very selfish and self centered. This film is a clown. Not gonna watch this ever again. THIS FILM IS A JOKE. HAHAHA! THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE MADE ANOTHER SEASON. WRONG MOVE!! EXPRESSING MY IMMENSE DISAPPOINTMENT AND ANGER RIGHT NOW. WORST SCRIPT EVER. I HATE IT. I WASTED 6 HOURS OF MY LIFE. I WASTED YEARS OF MY LIFE WAITING FOR THIS!!! I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH THE DIRECTOR AND WRITER. BUT THE ACTORS DID WELL. I JUST HATE THE STORY LINE.

Utterly disappointing

I was so excited to watch the second season but this is just sad.

The kdrama fan in me died upon watching this.

On one unique perspective, it does have a different storyline and she chose the first season's second lead. All the guy's effort were worth it and he won the girl. It's an unlikely happy ending for the female lead and this season's male lead.

But why do I feel so empty, so unsatisfied? Like all of the excitement, I have were flushed through the toilet.

Poor Hwang Sun Oh. He was just pushed aside.
