Love Formula Episode 24

Graduation

There were some warm fuzzy moments this last episode. Entong finally spoke up about the tanks. I appreciate the lesson and growth they were giving her character, but she again took up a lot of time that I would have preferred spent on rest of cast. This could have been covered in a positive way rather than all this negative drama for somebody suffering PTSD. The cast did a wonderful job with their roles, but I feel this was a missed opportunity to have the group grow together overcoming a tragedy to waste on obsessive drama just for the sake of drama. They made her the linchpin for his healing when she deliberately caused the most harm. For me, that took away a good bit of the positive vibe I wanted from this story. It was like a sweet idea with a bad aftertaste. The cast did a great job and I enjoyed the music, I just didn’t personally care for the creative direction the writer and director gave Entong’s character. She was written in such a way there is no indication she would really change and it took away from being able to enjoy the other couples because they spent too much time cleaning up the messes she made. I’m glad the couples ended on an upbeat but I was left wondering whose lives Entong would scar next and I don’t think that is what the filmmakers had in mind with their story. That is just the impression they left me with.
