Noona, You Are a Woman to Me Season 2

Speed dating on crack - fun edition.

Honestly, I had a blast watching. All the contestants were extremely unique (or at least far more unique than the usual bunch we get in shows like that) with their own distinctive charms. As individuals I loved them, as for the relationships, I had some questions.

Seeing how many couples ended up actually dating after the show, I’d say it was a massive win. Do I understand how at least some are still together? No. But then I saw just a tiny part of their interactions in a short period of a week they lived together.

On a personal level I truly liked Siwon and Jihye. They both seemed really determined and direct - knowing what they liked and what they dislike, being honest with people they interact with.

On the entertainment side I loved Jungwon - what a fox he was. I was shocked by more than one of his decisions and actions.

Pairings one, I adored Siwon and Yujin - they were such an unexpected ship for me, but I loved how wholesome their dates were.

For the criticisms, , it’s the usual: wish the show was longer - not even necessarily more episodes, but they staying together longer. One week is a ridiculously short period of time, especially since if they pick each other at the end, they are called “couples”... when they are still in the process of getting to know each other.

Then I wish there was more variety of age gaps, but also for the smallest age gap being larger than here. The catfish this season was way too young.

Overall, I liked it more than season 1 for sure.

You won't regret watching this series, 3 happy endings.

I don't watch a lot of reality shows, but this series and the Japanese one, Terrace House, I really enjoy. I think i liked this season better as the cast members were all unique but respectful of each other. To have 3/5 couples at the end is a win win. The couple that didn't become one is a mystery to everyone I think as we were all shipping Si Won and Yu Jin until...one didn't show up for the week later couple date. Sigh. We saw a player, there's always one eh? who until the last night played with both womens' feelings to the point that the non chosen one cried so you had to feel for her. Luckily the guy who comforted her became a couple with her in the end, and well deserving as he's definitely a keeper.
Am still trying to understand the reason provided by the female from the 4th 'non couple' when their dates were the ones I rewatched the most. Aigoo!

WTF YUJIN ???

I am writing this review to vent !!

Si Won was my favorite male participant and Yu Jin was my favorite female participant, so you can imagine my insanity when they BOTH started getting interested in each other midway through the show… and actually become an endgame couple.

But I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that Yu Jin ghosted Si Won literally just a week later. Like… WTF??? Out of all the couples, they seemed like the most solid ones, and the fact that they apparently didn’t even meet once after the show is actually crazy to me.

BUT this is where I have to be honest, the age difference between them was huge. And it wasn’t just the number itself; they had a whole GENERATIONAL GAP between them. Si Won is in his mid-20s while Yu Jin is in her late 30s, and that’s a pretty significant difference when you’re talking about where you are in life and what you want.

And as a woman, I think I can actually understand Yu Jin’s perspective. She was the older one, and maybe she ultimately felt responsible for making the difficult decision instead of dragging things out.. I believe she did the RIGHT thing.
Still heartbroken though..

One thing I am genuinely happy about, though, is that Jin Wo got his happy ending. And I’m even MORE happy that he and Jin Young are actually dating in real life.
As for the other couples… I’m honestly not that hyped about them.
