Wholesome and cute, loved the mothers
I am re-posting this review which I had posted on episode 2.===================================================
I stumbled upon this show when it was first released, wanting a Korean dating show that didn't feel overly produced. The concept of the mothers being part of it is what made me choose to give it a try....and I was hooked from day one.
The culture felt very similar to the one I come from, which is that we are supposed to listen to our elders, especially our mothers. When you marry someone in my culture, we often time end up living with the in-laws. I was excited for each episode, found myself laughing, crying and getting angry with them. It didn't feel, most times, like they were acting or putting on a show. While I never forgot that I was watching a dating show and it was being produced, I could also feel strong emotions from certain couples that made me wish the best for them.
My two favorite couples were Han Gyeul and Eun Na Rae, I particularly loved Nae Rae's mother who was cute and very affectionate toward Han Gyuel, I was concerned about his mother since she seems more strict and traditional. Honestly, until the very last second of the season finale I was at the edge of my seat with this couple.
My second favorite couple was Min Cheol with Jin Joo, they felt like the cool yet pure couple. I love the way they interacted and the mothers interacted with them. This couple as well had me at the edge of my seat until the end.
Music was really nice and I actually enjoyed the commentary from the 3 hosts, it felt like we were watching it together and bouncing off each other's thoughts.
Looking forward to season 2 and I would def re-watch this, also recommend!
10 out of 10.
