Heart Signal Season 4 (2023)

Emotionally Addicting but Draining

This show was a roller-coaster of my emotions, misled and misused by the editing of the show. I watched all 15 episodes from beginning until the end-- keeping up with the weekly updates.

If you are willing to be ignorant and are just looking for a show to giggle to when you watch the cute interactions of new relationships forming and cry at unrequited love, this is the show for you. The producers certainly did a good job of making me feel those feelings. Trust me... my heart fluttered, I kicked my feet, and I cried to this show.

But if you're looking for the whole story, you won't find that here. They bring in a new character mid-show and decide to cut most of her screen time. As humans, we want to believe the easiest thing-- so the producers edited her scenes to make her look shallow, dry and generally uninteresting, that way she would interfere with the plot set out by the producers for the "original" members of the house. It made the ending unsatisfying and honestly confusing because so many scenes were with-held from us.

Like other reality dating shows, the producers commit to a storyline after the first two episodes and decide to edit everything to fit that storyline. This includes the chosen flashbacks, dramatic music, cutting scenes, etc. Expect the same for the producers of Heart Signal 4.

Slow and long

I think the show was promising at the start because of the cast, but the more I watched, the more I doubted it. Since my favorite was Ji Won, it was sad to watch entire episodes without him. I was thinking to myself "why don't they find people that aren't so busy and bring them into the show?". So this was honestly a mistake on the producers part.

When it comes to the dates between the cast members, they didn't really show anything special in particular. Mostly they were plain and showed two people in a cafe or restaurant just casually talking. To be honest, I prefer activites over plain dates.

Regarding the love lines, they were disappointing. All guys were into one girl and mostly all girls were into one guy. The producers should then maybe add more cast members or pick more diverse cast members.

As I watched the show from when episode 1 released, I guess it was easier for me to watch the whole thing. I believe that if I was going to watch the whole thing when all episodes were released, I don't think I would have been able to finish it. All in all, it was a decent show, but it wasn't very exciting to watch.
