Love Alarm Season 2 (2021)

I can't believe they made us wait two years for a sequel that was so bland and boring.

I can't believe they made us wait two years for a sequel that was so bland and boring. The dialogue felt forced a lot of the time, and while there were cheesy scenes on season 1, season 2 was... something else... The scene on the canteen made me cringe so hard.
I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of the 3 characters. Hye Young is boring and his personality is basically "I like Jojo". Jo Jo is supposed to be more of an adult and focuses so much on that app when having hurt her ex s.o's feelings and her own shoul've made her already realize that she doesn't have to rely on an app. The scenes between Hye Young and Jo Jo bored me to death. Sun Oh never learned that he should stop screaming and throwing tantrums, even though I guess I can give him a pass because I, too, would be frustrated by not understanding why Jo Jo acted the way she did in their past and now.

( • ө • )♡ I loved it. The final Couple was my Favourite (´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`) ♡.

I love all the leads to be honest, and I often found that HJ was always more mature than both JJ and SO, He just never knew how to be as honest about his feeling like SO. SO is such an interesting character in general, because he was always so honest about how he felt abut JJ and HY, so it was heart breaking to see his his pain in season 1. ( • ө • )♡

Season 2 was so much better than season 1 as it kept me utterly hooked, and the growth each and every character including JJ's cousin and Aunt, had was beautiful. Season 2 also showed the major wounds both HY and So had due to their families and it was so beautifully portrayed. I almost cried when I found out the reason why HY always smiled in the mirror.
Now lets talk about the secondary plot lines. T be honest, they were not all that interesting, I barely even remember anything to do with JJ's friend. Also, the creepy stalker's story was just plain weird. However my favourite side story was that showing the cousins growth, because I think the writer kept her full of flaws and didn't water down her personality like they do to many feisty female characters in dramas. She grew enough to understand JJ and not bully her, while also caring about her mom's life as well, which was sweet.

Back to the Main couple. I was very happy with the ending as both characters helped each other grow and was their for support, and at the end I can't say anyone was lonely. My favourite side character was definitely Duk gu, he is genuinely such a sweet heart and I also loved Gul Mi too . ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

Not THAT bad

The bad reviews about this drama is about, and ONLY about, the endgame of it. I just know it. People are mad the girl didn’t end up with the guy they expected her to do...

We need to talk about it. Seeing the comments in this section, it just feels like Hyeyeong is a bad villain or did something so horrible that he didn’t deserve her, actually he deserves her the most (in my opinion). I’m obviously team Hyeyeong & I’m really satisfied with the ending, we need to realize how the writer did a revolution for this drama, letting the female lead not ending up with the first male lead is not easy & the proof of it are the bad reviews this season is getting.

Love Alarm is a famous drama & when I knew that the second male lead got the girl, I was honestly shocked, I didn’t expect it to happen even if I hoped for it. I have major second male leads syndrome, I had it in a lot of dramas like True Beauty, Start Up or School 2015... I didn’t expect for the man I was rooting for to be the endgame in this drama, it was so obvious for me that Sunoh would get her.

Basically, I’m just saying that Jojo & Sunoh not ending together isn’t a big deal. They were dating in their highschool days but time passes, guys... We are not always sticking on our first love for life. Yes, our first love will always be memorable but first love doesn’t mean the last. The characters are happy now & it’s the essential thing, Jojo & Sunoh have to move on anyway.

Hyeyeong & Yukjo are good characters and I think that people should STOP being so dramatic over a SHOW & fictional characters.

Talking about dramatic people, some Sunoh stans should stop judging Hyeyeong’s character by the actor’s looks. They’re both really pretty & talented, please stop & grow up.

I wanted jojo and sun-oh to end together,waited for season 2 for more than a year and got this ending,its my first time writing a review for any drama,i love k-drama there were many dramas in which i was a bit sad when my favourite couple did not end together but this was the worst.The director took a year to make season 2 he should have known what everyone wanted.I hope that it would have ended without only season 1 at least we could have thought that jojo and sun-oh ended together,i should have not hoped a lot from season 2.In the end the happiest thing i watched during the show was yuk-jo and sun-oh.They were main lead for me

Very disappointed

I was waiting for this season after watching it’s first season which I really loved. But what did I get after waiting for almost 2 years. Disappointment ! I felt the chemistry between jojo and sunho since the beginning of the first season and because of this I was eagerly waited for second season to be aired. But makers really make me hit on wall with a question mark. Guys, what did you do with this garbage storyline, made love alarm from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the ocean. Please don’t watch season 2 if you don’t want to disappoint yourself and don’t want to waste your time.

Two wasted years of waiting. Thanks, worst webtoon ever!

Season 1 wasn’t like a masterpiece but I was drawn to it because of curiosity about Jojo and Suno’s star crossed relationship. Her reason for breaking up with him literally made no sense but whatever, she’s young...and season 2 shows me she’s still stupid lol

Whoever was the decision maker on this season must not have seen season 1 or doesn’t know how to make good television. I wouldn’t put this show on your resume.

What a waste of time. It’s like they look at the list of things that most people like and do the complete opposite, for fun(???). Safe yourself and DO NOT WATCH!!

Bad ending

The ending was. Atrocious it was horrible it was one of the worst endings I’ve ever seen I’d rather watch cheese in a trap over and over again till I die then we watch love alarm season two. I’d rather have to see some of the worst K dramas in history then re-watch love alarm season two because Love alarm season two ending was so bad I demand a new season a season where the ending becomes better or season we’re all everyone gets what they want. I was so excited to watch season two but left as soon as the first episode I wasted my hours waiting for days I mean stayed up for 10 horribly maybe for some people did it and horribly but for me and most of the fan I feel as though and horribly for all of us

Love Alarm as a whole lacks any development. This season, just continues with adults relying on an app to tell their feelings (DO BETTER). And the transition into the second season completely disregards what happened in the previous episode. That tension for it to never be recalled again. Tsk tsk.  

The acting was alright. Though this is not a show to show the potential of their good acting. The characters are so one dimensional, it's hard to root for them. I felt personality coming more out of my left toe than any of the characters combined.

This is the show that you want to shut your brain off too and watch your typical girl with no parents who is miraculously loved by a boy with daddy issues and a nice boy who's just trying his best.

EXCEPT THAT NICE BOY WINS HAHAHAYAH

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO HYEYOUNG MY MAN.

What a win. I'm taking that dub.

No smile at all

The thing that sucks the most in this drama is .....
IN SEASON 1 SUN OH SAYS JOJO IS PRETTY when jojo is taking about scenery
but in season 2 they used hye young to say that part . I mean how can they do that.....
and I still dont understand why the hell did jojo break up with sun oh....
and ost is good and only one out of all and you dont get to listen it until last episode....
and the drama is a bit forced and characters deserve more
and it would be nice if they stopped sad scenes of sun oh and used sun oh and uk ju[ or something i dont remember sun oh girlfriend's name]

Good concept, but disappointing overall.

I found the concept of the 'Love Alarm' to be quite interesting, yet the character personalities were so frustrating at times that I would just stop watching. Jo Jo (Kim So Hyun) is specially troublesome as the story revolves around her not knowing who is best, and viewer is stuck watching the same questionable decisions over and over. Sun Oh (Song Kang) is equally if not more frustrating as his character is a whining child who forces his presence upon people. The saving grace of this trio is Hye Young (Jung Ga Ram) who plays the 'good guy', and is the only main character that I can relate with. The story engulfs these three main characters, with the story rarely moving to the support characters, that I wish were focused on more.

For me the soundtrack makes or breaks whether I'll finish watching a drama. There are a couple of tracks that are quite good, but one especially continues to give me chills; good chills. 'In my little mind' by Hodge and its placement within scenes really sung true with me re-enforcing the characters emotions and trust within themselves. The other tracks include quirky background instrumentals and tranquil singles, pretty standard.

Would I recommend this to anyone? Probably not, it's not for everyone.
Would I watch this again? Probably not.
Would I listen to the soundtrack? Yes, there a few gems that I listen to now and again.

Love Alarm Season 2 - A Missed Opportunity

Love Alarm Season 2 had the potential to build on the intriguing concept introduced in the first season but ultimately falls short in delivering a compelling narrative. It's puzzling why there even is a second season, as it struggles to live up to the promise of its originality.

One of the most significant disappointments with this season is the plot, which feels bland and unoriginal. It often seems like the writers are attempting to take the story in an exciting direction, but they consistently fail to execute it effectively. The potential for a fresh and innovative take on modern romance is there, but the execution leaves much to be desired. Viewers are left wanting more substance and depth in the storyline.

Character development is another area where Love Alarm Season 2 falters. The characters remain disappointingly one-dimensional, and their motivations and personalities fail to evolve in a meaningful way. For a series that relies on its characters to drive the emotional core, this lack of depth is a letdown. Viewers find it challenging to empathize or connect with the characters when they are so underdeveloped.

The unrealistic nature of the drama is yet another flaw that hinders the overall viewing experience. While some suspension of disbelief is expected in any romantic drama, Love Alarm Season 2 often pushes the boundaries of plausibility. The technology behind the Love Alarm app, initially an exciting concept, becomes increasingly convoluted and hard to believe, detracting from the story's authenticity.

In conclusion, Love Alarm Season 2 is a missed opportunity that fails to capitalize on its initial potential. While the premise of the show is intriguing, the lackluster plot, underdeveloped characters, and an unrealistic narrative make it difficult to invest in the series. It's regrettable that a show with such a unique concept falls short in delivering a compelling and immersive storyline. Viewers looking for a well-crafted romantic drama may want to consider other options.
