Season 1 was much better
It's kind of hard to continue watching this title since I have started to completely hate Sunoh and whenever I see him I get upset and almost the same thing happens to me with Gulmi. I still haven't finished it but I hope it ends good, Jojo picking Hyeyeong and the shield being removed so that he knows how she feels and all the thoughts of him having one-sided feelings disappear. If there's a third season I will probably not watch it though, maybe I will force myself to do it since I love Song kang and I want to support him in all of his roles but it's unlikely to happen.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

great OST and photography.
I must say as first thing, that the OST and the photography of this drama are great!!I never liked Sun-Ho from the first moment, but he was sincere, so I couldn't hate him... Hye-Yeong is not very a good looking guy, but he had this charm that made me love him immediately.
Finally a drama that is not boring, that gives space to the second lead and specially... is realistic!
Not always your first love remains your lover for the rest of your life, things can change, feelings can change, people can change... finally a girl that changes!
I'm so bored of dramas where the girl ends up with her first love, those dramas are so predictable. During the watching I was always thinking... ok Sun-Ho will do something and she will change her mind, as always... but not this time!

The most irritating characters but it's a good drama
So I'm writing this for both season 1 and 2 sooo you might get spoiled like a lot. I actually thought this will be an OKAY kdrama so I watched it and wtf. Literally, ep.1 (season 1) was already problematic. (WELL FOR ME)Sun oh just decided to be a jerk and kiss his best friend's crush knowing that SHE IS HIS CRUSH... like wtf is wrong with him.
ORRR, maybe.... JUST MAYBE, he likes Jojo too. ><
I like the story of the love alarm app thing... but WHAT THE FAK just happened...
Jojo is the person who just chooses wrongly. Her choices are the absolute worst in my entire kdrama experience. She likes Sun oh. They got into an accident so NOW. She breaks up with him even if Sun oh doesn't blame her for what happened and smiles at her all the time. She even use something to block him (I won't tell you what something). THEN..
She says that she broke up with him so that she will not take away Sun oh's smile WTF. There is really something wrong with her... She will just take away his smile if she break up with him because he loves her >< ... SHE'S NOT FUKING THINKING...
YEeeeh....
Season 2 was okay... I GUESS....
Jojo is dumber in season 2 and now I just keep on saying why? to everything she does... :)))
YEAHHHH watch till the end to see what happened... WATCH THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK.
because you'll get irritated.
Just jam with the music ig.

What I feel, what is my choice, what actually I want to do, I really alone?
If we just watch the drama as unrealistic story ,just for entertainment then it is beautiful love story having little pain and regrets but unknowingly many people get hurt without any fault . The fault is unrequited love , love ia very beautiful feeling ,it is a feeling just to imagine that person give thousands of happiness and In return want nothing. Just to watch that person happy ,doing well and living well are enough but still somewhere in heart wants to live side with by that person .I really don't like the love alarm concept that believe on app but not believe in your heart as I prove that someone loves you but it is make on the basis of entertainment then whole drama I like it. Actually since starting I wanted her to ended up with him ,starting from the first season and she was actually ended up with him . So I am happy to see the ending.
Music as well as background songs were good.
Though it is slow but not at all boring .

Not that great, but not bad either
I started watching Season 1 in April 2021. After finishing all 8 episodes of Season 1, I immediately turned on to Season 2.Season 2 brings us to see how some of our characters have matured, particularly Jojo and Hye-Yeong who eventually became a couple. However, Sun-oh still remained the immature, demanding and possessive guy (although, yes, I could understand his frustrations throughout these years, not knowing why Jojo suddenly broke up with him with no strong reason). We even get to see Gok-Du who has matured enough, even when facing Gulmi.
It was also interesting to see changes in how each of them viewed love. Sun-Oh seemed to really take Love alarm seriously in Season 1 (which explains why he wanted to know so much about Jojo's love for him), but in Season 2 he insisted that Jojo was in love with him just by looking at her (this was never said in nice, romantic way. Sun-oh still had those temper tantrums and showing how possessive and self-centered he was). On the other hand, Jojo and Hye-Yeong who didn't care much about the application, were now so much into it in Season 2.
The ending on season 2 was more bearable and realistic to me compared to other Korean dramas. There was no fairy-tale happy ending showing wedding of our protagonists.
I liked the soundtrack songs in this drama (most of them were in English). I'd like to google and listen to them again.

An underwhelming sequel to a phenomenal predecessor
Love Alarm 2, how should I remember thee?The execution was okay, the actors were great, but this season felt like a whole different drama. Had this not been introduced as a sequel to THE phenomenal Love Alarm (2019), I would have not set my expectation high, only to be let down big time.
Could it be because the director changed? Perhaps so.
This new guy/girl really had a different take and interpretation of the story from the previous director. Even the filming style, cinematography, and scoring that we really loved during the previous season (which were even considered the catalyst to the success of it), was not followed through properly here.
This sequel just felt so underwhelming in a lot of ways.
Now, regarding the script. I understand that the main author of the webtoon already decided the endgame, but making or watching it in live-action just wasnât convincing enough. Not even to me who understands Jojoâs plight and the choices sheâs made thus far. Here, her relationship with Hyeyoung just felt too contrived and Sunoh was deliberately written to be more rude and emotionally challenged than he was 5 years before. If this was the writerâs intention then he/she nailed it, at the expense of good storytelling.
Moreover, I just wish thereâs more depth to Jojoâs love story with Hyeyoung as I honestly enjoyed their quiet and little bubble. Maybe the sudden introduction of them as a couple who is already together for quite some time, has started the disconnect of the audience from the story. In the first season, we were still at the part where Jojo is starting to consider Hyeyoungâs feelings towards her. Weâre still AT THE BEGINNING PHASE, and yet here, the two have been clearly together for quite a while which possibly threw most of the audience off. Not everyone is as ecstatic to join the âvery suddenâ boat as nothing has been laid down yet for people to understand how it all reached such point.
Nonetheless, this is still a pretty enjoyable end to the great Love Alarm story. However, I still definitely prefer the first season more in terms of filming technique. That was really a very good high school drama worth remembering for the great scenes it gifted the drama-land.

The series continues to explore the complexities of love and relationships, focusing on the love triangle between the main characters, Jojo, Sun-oh, and Hye-yeong. The character development is a mixed bag, as some characters show growth and depth, while others feel stagnant or underdeveloped.
One of the main issues highlighted by viewers is the lack of substantial progression in the storyline, with some episodes feeling repetitive and slow-paced. This stagnation takes away from the potential emotional impact of the series, leaving viewers unsatisfied and wanting more from the plot.
Furthermore, the writing in "Love Alarm Season 2" has been criticized for its predictability and reliance on clichés, making it feel formulaic at times. While the romance and drama elements are central to the show, the lack of fresh and inventive storytelling leaves viewers feeling disappointed.
Despite its flaws, the series does manage to maintain its visually appealing cinematography and soundtrack, capturing the essence of youthful romance and emotions effectively. The chemistry between the lead actors remains commendable, adding a layer of authenticity to their relationships.
However, the love triangle dynamic becomes increasingly frustrating for some viewers, with the characters' decisions and actions often feeling inconsistent and illogical. This inconsistency dampens the emotional impact of pivotal moments and prevents the series from reaching its full potential.
In conclusion, "Love Alarm Season 2" presents a captivating concept with a unique premise and strong performances from the cast. Yet, it falls short in its execution, suffering from a lack of substantial plot development, predictability, and inconsistent character arcs. The series may appeal to die-hard fans of the romance and youth drama genres, but it may not live up to the expectations of those seeking a more nuanced and compelling narrative.

Yeah, acceptable
Because it's not a romance-comedy drama, the nuance/atmosphere is so eerie. Don't expect comedy, stop hoping you'll be laughing. Ngl, I don't like romance without comedy. I'm sorry So Hyun-ah T_TPros:
- Kim So Hyun
- Romance that "not that cringe"
- Consistent in picking a love partner(?) in this season. Acceptable plot.
Cons:
- No comedy that makes the drama so eerie
- Slow-paced drama. Too many dramatic-slow-motion scenes.
- Main-lead-centered drama. It could be a good drama if support roles have their story too. I demand Yukjoo more!
- Too much crying
- There are plots that need to be explained, but we got nothing a.k.a plot holes.
