I want a spin-off where they start from Season 1 Cliff-hanger. Then, Jo Jo's love alarm got reset by Duk Gu.But…
I want SO and YJ ending but only when SO had completely moved on from JJ from the start. SO and YJ relationship had more chemistry than JJ and HY so i would have been happy if they build the SO×YJ relationship. She loved him so much! She deserved him better than JJ.
JJ ending up with HY isn't the problem, how they unfolded the arc was. Good portrayal of building a relationship will always take its time and will let you in as to why and how she's falling in love but love alarm didn't. They just drop it on you when you aren't even ready and the messed up thing is they reached this ending at the expense of massacring other characters (SO). Am i against a JJ×HY ending? Absolutely not. Am i against how it came to exist? Yes. I didn't feel any chemistry or build up of the relationship main leads are supposed to have for viewers to root for them.
I would have given it an 8 if they messed up just that but the way the writers handled SO's character was a punishment to watch. They didn't give him enough screen time (even when he was the most loved character of season 1 and so much could been shown about his character like his relationship with YJ, his familial problems and much more) or the proper closure a main character should have. They used his whole character as a propp for us to see the ultimate end couple (HY and JJ) and even then failed at it! That's the lowest a writer could go. His ending (not closure) didn't make sense. He was literally used as a propp for JJ to realize that she loves HY and then in the last 10 minutes did they bother to pull a nonsensical character ending for him which didn't even provide a closure. That's just bad bad writing and i don't know why people don't see it. JJ was a mess and i think i don't need to explain why. Her decision and reactions didn't make sense, her lack of character development literally made the show suffocating to watch.
The plot is really plain and boring; 90% of the story is about an indecisive and weak girl who is chased by 2 guys the whole drama (god knows why!).
That's why the drama is rated low not because of the ship wars. If you don't want to see the obvious flaws here than i cannot do anything about it but don't just presume that we rated it low because of a ship that didn't happen because WE DIDN'T.
i am confused. are people disappointed of this season because Jojo ended up with second male lead or what??????
Yeah some people are disappointed with that but most people are frustrated at the boring plot and progression of characters (didn't happen). PS: HY is the ML.
What!I'm basically finding reasons in your argument as why you think that SO loved JJ any less than HY did but…
Literally everyone in that world gave it importance including JJ and HY. HY ringed her alarm a in season 1 and they still showed the app in the ending where the alarm rings. JJ basically decided everything about her love life because of the app till the end. That argument aside, i don't think SO's feelings ever were affected by the app, he still loved her! What affected their relationship was JJ and her refusal to love him because of her insecurities. The app was the last hope SO could hold on to because JJ practically crushed all his hopes by saying that she doesn't love him anymore (in season 1). SO's ending doesn't make sense. He is forcing himself to love a beautiful girl (physically and mentally) like YJ because he couldn't control who he loves. The ending didn't let him move on from JJ (he still loved her) but pulled the nonsensical ending of him and YJ getting together. That relationship would never work and that's unfair to YJ too. His ending didn't make any sense. The writers didn't give him a closure but the webtoon tried to do it and succeeded to a point (in the webtoon he rings YJ's alarm in the end).
I got called "blinded" & "biased" just because I stated that I was not happy with the characters' development…
Yeah i was trying to ignore the mess but it was all over the place. I was frustrated and fell asleep two times till i reached episode 4 and then i dropped it.
It's not about who ended up with who. It's about how writers played their own characters & us with them. There…
Exactly but people are refusing to see all that because the ship (HY and JJ) was everything they wanted. This drama is basically very much flawed and the end ship is the last of it.
I Repost this here:Did you all forget that Sun Oh started flirting with Jojo because his best friend had a crush…
What! I'm basically finding reasons in your argument as why you think that SO loved JJ any less than HY did but i found none that's logical. How SO started with JJ doesn't matter, how his feelings reached to the point where he literally couldn't move after 5 years does. That's not young love, i haven't seen teenagers waiting 5 years for someone, who broke their heart for no reason, and still couldn't move on with their life. Don't just presume SO's feelings for JJ were any less or young compared to HY. The only difference is SO gave it his all and was very extreme in loving someone but HY on the other hand knew how to love patiently and silently. Their ways of loving is different but that doesn't mean they meant or affected anything different. I actually believe in love like SO and HY both. I have friends who love like SO (very intense with their feelings and always gives a relationship their all) and i have friends who love like HY (patience and love are the same thing to them). Just stating how SO started with JJ and then making a conclusion as bizarre as his love being young or something is actually kind of biased.
PROBABLY SPOILER ALERT!I dont even know where to start. At first I felt sad we were getting only 6 ep, but I couldnt…
Can everyone, who disagrees with the low ratings, read this comment and tell me if there's anything wrong stated here. These are all logical points and arguments against what the drama depicted.
Why are people presuming that the low ratings are only because people are angry with SO not getting an ending with JJ? I mean that's just being biased and completely wrong. Read the comments and majority of them are not only complaining about the ending but so much more like the dull plot and inconsistent characters. If you're unable to look past your petty sentiment or if your attachment to a fictional character (HY) is to the point where arguing with facts becomes secondary considerations then there's no point to state anything. Don't presume and state something as irrelevant as the drama being good just because HY got his happiness. If you watch it with a broad mind where you consider every angle, then the ratings it has (6.6) is justifiable. You can't convince me to rate it any higher just because of HY when the writers messed up most characters and the plot.
idk maybe im saying this bc ive always been team Hye Young but i don't think yall should completely trash the…
Scroll down a little and you'll find tonns of comments criticising much more than just the ending. The ending isn't what made it worse, the lame plot and wasting of characters did.
yeah, anyway, it's such a shame the way they treated Seonoh-Yukjo's story. on the original webtoon, at the end…
Honestly, i would have been completely fine with SO's closure (one of the things i hate about the ending) that way and it would have been more realistic and appreciable. Letting him move on with his own life would have been a good character and plot development but the writer just didn't want to break the norm of "SML never moves on" because that would undermine the main characters somehow. Proper closure is what i wanted for SO and i would have been more than happy if it was with YJ.
This is why the drama is a mess. Not the JJ×HY ending, but really bad execution of characters and not giving them proper closure.
#COPIED I tried to go with it, bear it, but my patience just ran out. The popular opinion of the who JJ will end up with was far off in my "concern list" about the drama when i started watching it. I came here to see the development of characters from high schoolers to adults dealing with life and i came here to see a plot that is in consistency with what the characters would allow considering their characterization but there was basically none. The main character of the drama (JJ) is hard to watch and even harder to focus on. The expectation to see her transition from a teenager to an adult never happens. Her decisions and reactions to situations was screaming to the fact that she still is what she was in season 1; a weak, indecisive and unlikeable character. The ML is HY in this season because he has more screen time than SO. HY is basically one of the good ones that are just too good to be real hence deprive the viewers from the factor of relatablility but he still was watchable. As for how his chemistry with JJ is; it's nonexistent. They are cute but they have no chemistry partners in a kdrama should have. The SML (SO) is literally just wasted as a character for convenience of writer to write a JJ×HY arc. He was used as a plot device for the ending. Season 1 made me feel conflicted as i was struggling with his character's likeability but the quote "Not every man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for the happiness, the good he seeks" made me realise what he was; a pitiful and sad person who was trying to hold on to the good in his life (JJ) and season 2 still continues with using him as just that. The writers didn't even bother to give him a proper closure as at the end of the season, we see him still holding on to his feelings for JJ but then in a matter of 5 minutes, he lets go (didn't make sense). The writers were so bent on pulling the "ALL OKAY" card that they somehow thought that ending him up with someone he doesn't even love was a good idea. This drama is as bad as it gets and i don't know why it's hard for people to understand that. If you want to watch this drama, don't go in with any expectations or hope for the plot and characters to make sense. Just watch it for the actors and the production values if you have to.
It's so funny to me how some of you guys thought the second season was worst than the first season no in the first…
THAT WASN'T REALISTIC AT ALL. Where in the world did you find something like this REALISTIC! People in this drama decide whom they love because of an app! The characters never learned anything and never developed, it was suffocating to watch. The writers were hell bent of portraying SO as this pathetic person who just can't let go of JJ till the (for reasons i can't put my head around) end but still end up with someone! Give the man sometime to grieve before starting fresh with someone. If they really wanted SO and YJ together then they should have built the relationship from the start start and should let SO move on but NO. Their misguided notion to be realistic led to nothing but mediocrity and to an extent fantasy.
I would never watch that. Season 2 made me hate love triangles even more. I thought start up was the worst case…
Well love triangle doesn't mean that feelings should be mutual. JP was in a love triangle even when DM didn't have any feelings for him. I never wanted HJP and DM together, never. I always thought HJP deserved a happy ending and i was fine with him getting one without DM but the writer didn't allow him to.
I would have given it an 8 if they messed up just that but the way the writers handled SO's character was a punishment to watch.
