Final couples were manipulated by the production team
The show was not all bad. "Blind Date in a Bed" was a refreshing change. It provided something new and interesting to the dating show genre and I really enjoyed it. Also, was happy to see them becoming an official couple. "Drunk Blind Date" was also entertaining but totally unrealistic. I mean, how can you have a meaningful conversation when you're alcohol levels are at 0.8? The next date was more watchable since they lowered their levels to 0.5. Unfortunately, they kept on drinking until they were too drunk to understand each other or even remember their convos. Not surprised they didn't couple up. The other 2 experiments, however, where just too stupid. It looked to me like the production team manipulated events to make sure that the couple they were rooting for ended up together. In "Isolated Romance", they allowed Ji-Young to have a chat with Si-Hyun (granted he asked for her) then immediately had them make the final decisions without giving Hyun-Jin to speak with him. This forced Si-Hyun to make a decision without hearing Hyun-Jin's side. In the same manner, in "The Heart King Game" right after the Secret Dates, they had Kyung-Ho and Ga-Yeon arrive at the house first giving them time to be together and strengthening their relationship further (altho even before this point Ga-Yeon had already obviously chosen Kyung-Ho). The problem is they had Ye-Rim arrive next and seeing them acting all lovey-dovey hurt her feelings. The production crew just wanted to raise their ratings regardless of how it affects the participants. I really hated this part. Please don't make a second season.
P.S. I gave the Rewatch Value a 1 coz they don't allow 0.
