YALL JUST BAD REVIEWING BECAUSE THE PLOT DOESNT FOLLOW YOUR STANDARD??

I simply wrote this to review the storyline actually good! Yall just disappointed with the chosen lead at the end of the drama? Maybe because you addicted to true beauty pattern, right? Try not to choose which character more attractive, (and you want him to be just like in your mind-self-story) try to understand how complicated and diverse the plot, the storytelling. I think this drama is one of example of story that will never flow like your HUGE expectation. Love is wide, the way duk-gun describe how the shield & spear lead her to hye-yeong really wraps things up. I like this drama. Congrats director!

They said it mature but ended up childish

Ok first thing ya feelings are something you can't direct or control. But the feelings of Jojo was so pure in season 1 as compared to season 2. She left sun-oh without any reasoning and she was the reason he smiled so bright. I just wonder how come unreasonable hurting of one person amounts to mature choice🤷‍♀️. I was really excited for season 2 but now as it has been released I did not like it. Views are personal at last.
I would re-watch season 1 instead of 2. I really thought she would understand the time spent with Sun-oh and his feelings because the way he loved Jojo, the other male character wasn't even admitting his feelings towards her at the very beginning this shows how much Sun-oh was firm from the very first.
The way Jojo had this crisp quirkyness attitude towards Sun-oh was incomplete in season 2 with respect the othe male lead. Honestly I felt it is Sun-oh who completed her and made her love herself even with her past fear and Jojo completed Sun-oh with a smile and happiness that was missing throughout in his life.

This review is in Portuguese :)

jojo Ă© extremamente indecisa e egoĂ­sta sobre os prĂłprios sentimentos.

A primeira temporada tem um bom começo e a história suga você, mas a segunda é decepcionante.

É 6 horas no máximo de extrema indecisão, egoísmo, dependência, e ódio. O final me decepcionou muito, não pelo fato dela ficar com o outro o hyeong, mas sim por ela não considerar em nenhum momento os sentimentos do sun-oh, sempre pensando nos seus, e ainda mais com a sua extrema dependência pelo aplicativo.

Ela simplesmente não consegue decidir o que sente, e fica com a missão de achar o antigo desenvolvedor para "clarear os seus sentimentos", isso traz tédio e desinteresse por toda a série. É meio decepcionante eu perder 2 anos da minha vida esperando a segunda tempora e vir algo como isso.

Tudo bem, eu entendo que os finais não são sempre como queremos, mas o problema dessa série não foi o final, mas sim o seu desenvolvimento.

Who Do You Love by MonstaX would be a great ost.

In my opinion love alarm s1 was way better. I dont like the character development at all because here you are seeing a man trapped in an old love and didn't get any answers and wasted his years in pain. And then end up going to who loves him witch is not cool. He deserved a better ending. No thats not cool at all. Also I really dont like the female leads character. Of course from the start this was a love triangle but you can do better girl. She didnt give any valid reason to why she did it or what she feels. She is the most massed up in this drama. She is depending everything over an app and dont know what she feel about his man. Second male lead with his obsession over her and wasting his friend. Treating him like trash. It really hurted my feelings how Sunoh was literally all alone. And Song Kang with his brilliant acting! I literally felt his pain in every second. The highlight of the show SONG KANG ONE AND ONLY, he is really getting better and better in every show. I was watching for just because of him. But overall im really glad that love alarm is over cause it was honestly a pain in the ass.

This season saved the series for me, the acting, directing, and all-around felt good although it was a touch rushed. You'll see fangirls mostly crying about the epilogue of the love story and throw some random 'critics' but it sincerely felt right to me, the last kdrama I watched was nevertheless and it's the same actor surprisingly. Such a good actor, he actually made me dislike him in both shows, lmao. Hopefully, the other show I mentioned will have another season and take the exact same route. The ending was just as it should be and I'm happy about that. Its so easing when good relatable guys get the win, it kind of gives you hope. Good watch.

Very boring.

There was not much history because it was over in the first season, nothing has changed. There wasn’t much plot or things to happen, besides that every episode the Sun Oh character was crying, which made you not even cheer for the main couple, which was kind of boring (in my opinion), but they were even cute at times (no hate). Waste of time. I finished at full speed by accelerating. Very disappointing.

I think they wanted to convey the idea that love can be built with time and choice, I don't know if that can be true. I didn't even understand why she chose not to like Sun Oh anymore. But, I think that this idea may not always work.

I Never Actually Hated a Drama Until This One

I am so pained right now!!!!! I can't believe I wasted my time to get that horrible ending. This drama was badly written and the character development was so poor.

Okay, I lied all the time I said I wanted the girl to end up with the second lead. No, it didn't work.

As a firm member of Team Sun-oh, I was stupidly waiting for Jojo and Sun-oh to resolve their misunderstanding and have a happy ending. It's the only reason I watched until the very end. Otherwise, it was too painful to watch a heartbroken Sun-oh struggle to handle his emotions and get hopeful when he thought he had a chance. Oh my gaaaaash, I ended up hating Jojo for doing that to him.

This drama was just the worst things about love triangles in full brightness with absolutely no comic relief.

Was it necessarily needed

Love alarm season 1 I did not really like but decided to give season 2 a try but still left the same opinion.

With love alarm I love that it has a deeper meaning and can be very sociological, physiological... But that was all. The ratings I thought was to high on the first season.

Season 2 brings alight the some what love triangle, I did not think JoJo look at both sides, it made me annoyed since I did not read the webtoons so I still did not know who she would end up with and it would of disappointed me if she went with Sunho. So I guess it did get me in thinking, but it was 6 episode for that to happen.

I did not really think all the story lines (plots) were necessarily needed.

In conclusion

It's crap.

Completely different from what season one was. It's like watching a whole new drama.

At this point of the show where they're now adults, I thought they would be able to clear up misunderstandings and move on. Talk properly and be able to convey their feelings with more ease but boy was I wrong. It just got more confusing and messy. Sun Oh barely got any screen time despite being the male lead?? JJ literally being inconsiderate of Sun Oh's feelings too.

The storyline is frustrating, starting from ep 1 everything just went downhill.

A completely different drama

Firstly, I would like to do a very quick recap; As it's probably already known, the story is revolving around a love triangle between two best friends (Sun oh and Hye young) and their classmate, Kim Jo jo.

The first season started off well with a very interesting and different kind of concept, that showed a very quick development of its own story between the two mains (Sun oh and Jo jo), and later with Hye young trying to win over the heart of a hopelessness girl.

With the arrival of the second season though Love Alarm felt like a completely different drama where, most of the time, had an unclear and confusing aspect. Its turning point happened when the screenwriter swiftly put aside Sun oh’s leading role, along with his feelings towards Jo jo, which felt like a regrettable decision that not only ruined the concept of the story but also the viewer’s patience.

With every chance Sun oh is shown on screen, it feels like the viewer is battling with him to understand all those upsetting feelings that are coming forth and with him not receiving any proper answers to his questions, there is no development around his character which leads to the thing I mentioned earlier – putting aside his leading role – and making him look like a clingy person that “begged” to be loved back.

The ending of the story becomes clear by episode 4 as you are left there – in front of the screen – asking yourself “where did this come from”. By the time you realize that there is no turning back to the decision-making, the screenwriter decides to finish this off by showing us how unnecessary the love triangle and its story was, from the beginning.

As it is probably already known, stories that include love triangles never end up in a good way and this drama here proved that it is no exception. The most frustrating part though is how it manages to turn a diverse story into a weak one that makes the viewer regret to even spent those 6 hours of their time while hoping that it would have followed a similar pace to the 1st season without making these last-minute "changes".

Not Good Enough

The second season of the Korean Drama " Love Alarm " takes things from where the first season left off, years after the events that lead to the main couple splitting up. This season doesn't have the advantage of the school genre that always adds some innocence and freshness to the plot. It actually doesn't have a plot, as the story focuses on JoJo and her struggle to accept herself and her feelings. The whole drama about her art, her past life, and the shield was sloppily handled and the family drama was overlooked. The side characters were also boring.

One thing that this drama had going for it, at least, was the strong performances from the cast, especially from the leading lady. The twist with the romance was original too. However, the whole drama feels strange compared to the first season, like it's not its sequel. Rather, it's boring and rushed.


So, overall, 4 out of 10.
