It started a little slow, but it was essential to build up the story. It gears to action pretty fast. Perfect blend of comedy and action

The cameos in this episode were insane. I couldn't believe some of the actors they got to play the virtual boyfriends. But even with all the star power, Jisoo really held her own. Her reactions to these "perfect" guys were so funny because she was still trying to act normal while being totally overwhelmed.

This was one of the funniest parts of the show. Watching her try out all these different rom-com tropes in the app was hilarious because she knows exactly how fake they are since she works on webtoons. It was cool to see her starting to enjoy herself for once, even if it was just through a headset.

It's only the second episode but it had me on toe top. The acting is top notch, both the lead and supporting roles. Story was fast paced enough to keep you engaged all the time. It's really a unique blend. You don't expect this much comedy on a zombie drama. You don't expect this much gore and bloody scene on a comedy drama either. Can't wait for next episode next week.

The perfect way to end it. I’m glad they didn't just make everything magically perfect. Seeing them try to date for real with all the awkwardness and work stress was the best part. It left me feeling really happy and satisfied with how everyone ended up. Definitely a 10/10 binge. I hope they've plans for season 2 too

Watching Mi-rae finally decide to move on from the app was so satisfying. It was a big growth moment for her. Her big talk with Kyeong-nam was everything I wanted it to be—it wasn't perfect or cinematic, it was just two people being honest, which felt way more romantic than the virtual stuff.

The drama really ramped up here. The scene starts acting weird and showing her stuff from her real life, which was kind of creepy but also made for a great story. It forced her to stop hiding in the VR world and actually look at what was happening right in front of her. The tension was crazy.

I loved that we finally got to see things from Kyeong-nam’s side. He’s not actually a jerk; he’s just stoic and actually likes Mi-rae in his own quiet way. Seeing how much he does for her behind the scenes while she’s distracted by the app made me root for him so much more.

This chapter was a bit of a tear-jerker. We finally find out why Mi-rae stopped dating in real life, and Jisoo’s acting here was just incredible. She made me really care about her character's past. It wasn't just about the technology anymore; it was about her healing and learning to trust people again.

This was a huge turning point. Mi-rae had to deal with a real crisis at work while her virtual date was going on, and it was the first time the app started to feel like a distraction rather than a help. Kyeong-nam helping her out was a big moment, and you could finally see that there was something real building between them.

Things started to get a bit more serious here. You can see Mi-rae getting a little too into the app, and it starts affecting her work. Kyeong-nam actually starts acting like a human being instead of just a rival, and he’s the only one who notices she’s acting weird. The "glitch" scenes were really trippy and cool to watch.

I really felt for Mi-rae in this one. Her job seems so exhausting and seeing her just collapse at home after work was so relatable. When she first gets the "Boyfriend on Demand" device, it doesn't feel weird, it just feels like she finally got a break. The introduction of her rival Kyeong-nam was great too because he’s so annoying at first, which makes the virtual dates look even better.
