Why I liked this season of Love Alarm and why you should hear me out

Guys, I know most of you are mad but hear me out!
To me, this season made sense. It was not as aesthetically beautiful as season 1 was (honestly, season 1's beauty was the reason I watched this drama ) nor it was as engaging. But I genuinely liked it.
Let me tell you all this, we all fell for Song Kang and not Sun Oh (if you did fall for Sun Oh then please get some help) Sun Oh was madly in love with Jojo, to a point where he was possessive and he was obsessed with her. He got frustrated when she didn't reply to his texts and he always clung to her like some leech. The first episode of season 1 made me really not like Sun Oh (I watched the first season only a few days ago and I thought I was ready to make Sun Oh my next kdrama boyfriend because of the hype he got from people saying that he's the sweetest ) I didn't have any prior info about this show so my opinion is really unbiased. But Hye yeong was too sweet. He didn't do much and practically gave up when he found out that Jojo likes Sun Oh and I respect that about him, because Jojo already liked Sun Oh so he didn't try to change her feelings or anything (not to mention that he still remained good friends with Sun oh and told him to be there for Jojo) Here's the thing : Sun Oh wanted Jojo to be happy with him but Hye Yeong wanted Jojo to be happy. It didn't matter if the person who made Jojo happy was him, Sun Oh or someone else). In season 2, Sun Oh becomes this obsessive ex, he went wherever Jojo went and demanded for an answer. Honestly, I do agree that the reason that Jojo dumped Sun oh was extremely dumb. They were in a relationship so they should've talked about it (they must've done that) but Jojo decided to become a dumb bitch and didn't explain herself and I really wished she did. Although I do feel bad for Sun Oh but I like how they didn't stick to the "first love" bullshit. It happens so often in kdramas (and all dramas honestly) when in reality, it hardly comes true. I was also a bit upset about the ending, not because Sun Oh and Jojo don't end up together but because Song Kang and So Hyun have great chemistry when the other actor and So Hyun don't have that much. They look cute but chemistry? Nope.
Trust me, if I were Jojo, I would've picked Hye Yeong any day because I've been in a similar situation like this. The guy may love you a lot but is he any good for you? Let's be honest, who would you choose? A guy who loves you to death but he's possessive and literally so fucking obsessed with you that he doesn't even leave you alone or a guy who loves you, respects that fact that you like someone else and still waits for you without genuinely wanting his feelings to be reciprocated? If you choose the former, trust me you really really need some help because possessive behaviours and stuff like that shouldn't ever be romanticised even when the person is smokin hot and is madly in love with you. It just shouldn't.
Many of you would hate me for writing this but with time, you all will realise it.
PS: I gave this season an eight out of ten because of its acting, music, some really beautiful shots. Not because of the ending or the poor writing.
