sai

Finished it and it was a pretty good drama. Unpopular opinion but I didn't really like how the FL was presented. Oftentimes I found myself thinking if it was the acting, but it's Han Hyojoo so that can't be right. I think she definitely leaned a lot into the Japanese style of acting for women which may be part of it. I just found the FL's behavior very jarring compared to the ML who also has a mental illness but didnt turn into some very animated character when he touched someone.

I feel the same about the FL. Sure she can't look people in the eye, but does that include behaving so dramatically in social settings? I think it's a little too much. Unless she's autistic too. But it's weird because she acts perfectly fine around the ML. It's like she's a completely different person in public, does having a fear of eye contact and people looking at you change you that much? I find it hard to believe

I'm more so annoyed by the fact that they keep baiting us with it. Either with her condition or some stupid interruption. Of course her condition makes it harder but they KEEP DOING IT so I've started skipping them because it's obvious she's not gonna say anything.

They broke up in early 2025. And the show may be airing now, but production already began months ago. So theyre only broken up for like 4-5 months. That's nothing compared to a 7 year relationship. They are both still going to be very emotional and very irrational about each other. Give her some grace jeez

Feelings aren't always logical. And they broke up very very recently, so to see such a big change, especially something that was a big factor into their breakup, is obviously going to be very upsetting!

Oh absolutely I'd be pissed

I see it more as them being comfortable enough to speak that way. Like theyve been together for almost 8 years, they grew up as teens to grown adults together, and they only broke up a couple months before the show started. Of course she should speak nicer, but the way she speaks is the same way anyone would when they're frustrated at a family member. It just shows how close they are and how comfortably theyre able express themselves

Considering the circumstances around the time they broke up, it makes a lot of sense. Yooshik constantly wanted to sleep around her on their dates, so much that he did that on the day they broke up too. And now she's hearing him stay up till 5am chatting with these new friends he made, seemingly having no issue staying up. It feels hypocritical, like a betrayal

It's still too early to judge, let's cut them some slack. A lot of them did cry, and the ones who didn't as much have probably moved on from their relationship a lot more, which we definitely need this season considering almost everyone reunited with their ex in s3. Dongjin/Dahye honestly should not have even been on this show because their breakup was far too fresh and they clearly were not in a place to start dating other people especially in their ex's presence. Let's remember this show is also meant to find new love too, so we don't necessarily need everyone crying over their past relationship

Likely to still keep things mysterious and make us wonder if they are exes or not. Which did get cleared up in the next episode, but we got a new participant too so it's like they gave us a hint while still adding to the mystery

Almost any time there is an endgame couple in the show, it's two exes reuniting. Only in s2 was there a successful new couple formed, and they are the reason this show's popularity skyrocketed

This cast feels like a mix of transit love s1 and single's inferno lmao visual wise

idk why but the confessions part are my least fav part of dating shows i skip through them and just watch them being cute at the end if anything

Yeah i couldn't feel her love for the king at all

I'd say the opposite lol

Forreal because where is this strong passion coming from after barely knowing her? Like why HER out of everyone you've protected, they need to give us more development instead of making him obsessed almost at first sight bc it makes no sense

Definitely agree. Feels very much based of physical attraction, which is fine, but then they have these deep talks about how she really trusted him and all that and I just don't feel it. Their relationship should've progressed more

Yeah i was a little surprised by the casting choice there, they casted a popular Thai actress to play a Chinese American?

I think it's better that the panelists stay more neutral on this show especially, with how popular and how massive the viewership is. Because their words will impact how the viewers treat them. Celebrities are already influential themselves, so for them to passionately express negative emotions towards regular civilian participants is just sending a massive hate train that way which will affect their lives so much. And for Muchen it wasn't like he was an actively bad guy, he was just really indecisive and struggled to express himself, which resulted in hurting the girls feelings. But that does not warrant hate and death threats. There are definitely ways to express your feelings and disagree with certain actions while still remaining respectful

I wouldn't say this season is as bad as people are making it to be, there aren't as many heartfluttering couples in here as there were in s6&7 but personally it's a nice watch anyway. The participants all get along and if there is tension, most of it gets resolved by great communication.
