As Hae Jun and Jae Hun prepare to celebrate their first Christmas and New Year together, Jae Hun takes Hae Jun to another secret villa of his. What was meant to be a sweet memory soon turns tense with the return of their close friend, Kang Su Hyeok. Under the guise of a “best friend,” he methodically uncovers Jae Hun’s hidden past, turning long-buried secrets into sharp weapons, and seeks to leave the mark of a “third party” in their relationship—everything seemingly part of a cruel, twisted game. Amid the waves stirred by Su Hyeok, can their love survive the test and grow even stronger? (Source: GagaOOLala) Edit Translation

Reviews
those blinking xmas lights were my brain cells dying while watching this
Overall: the first 2 episodes were so bad they were funny, but episode 3 was not enjoyable to watch at all nor was a lot of what happened after. 8 episodes about 30 minutes each. Aired on iQIYI https://www.iq.com/play/tide-of-love-2-episode-1-q7bb46xfuk?lang=en_us and GagaOOLala https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/6193/tide-of-love-2025-s02e01 (not available in the Americas, Spain, Portugal, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Japan or Korea) Here is my review of season 1 https://kisskh.at/profile/blcompilations/review/512672Content Warnings: drugging, sexual assault, intimate partner abuse, slap, manipulation, past intimate partner abuse, rape? (it did not look consensual at the time), violence, drugging
What I Liked
- unintentionally hilarious in the first 2 episodes, wth was that ankle bracelet thing
- visuals
Room For Improvement
- episode 3 was full on intimate partner abuse, preventing him from taking his class, taking his phone away (isolation is a classic abuser tactic), tracking him, chaining him without consent/refusing to let him leave the house, that slap, ugh, none of it was sexy or fun to watch
- mismatched kissing, one guy went all in and the other kept his lips shut (even during times when he allegedly enjoyed it)
- I don't normally take off points for production value for indie series, but this is egregiously low budget feeling with so many continuity errors
- practically had a mustache twirling villain (with super zoomed in close ups of his "alcoholic" beverage)
- love rival
- worst "punch" ever
- that drugging
Not a Review Although, I may leave my opinion on this
My main question, after I ask myself, “why am I watching this? (“Out of pure boredom,” I answered), is: What is wrong with the person playing Hae Jun, that he REFUSES to open his lips, or kiss properly, while being given wide, open-mouth kisses from Jae Hun? It’s just so weird and off-putting! It’s not as if that’s the ONLY problem with this series, but it bothers me every time!The first season was not good and the production has not improved in any way in the second.
And why, for the love of god, does Jae Hun need a physiotherapist? Doesn’t he need some kind of psychotherapy?
I will add a positive comment… I think the actor, Jung Myung-Cheol, who plays JaeHun, is very attractive and is the better actor of the two leads. Maybe, if given a better script, with better direction, and a decent production, he could do well, but this is not it, for sure.
