My favorite part of yumi's cells will always be the fact that it's not a black and white, destiny, love story. There's no past connection. There's no once you date you can't not be together. There's just 2 new people meeting, getting to know each other and starting a relationship Easily one if my actual favorites this year. I might go back and reduce 0.5 from my other 2022 dramas Since s1 I knew what will happen and that was for the best, since this drama is walking through new territory the anticipation can be dreadful, like Eve's ending ep had me in all types of turmoil š¤£ As an artist, as someone who hasn't found "love", as someone uncertain about alot of things in life, as someone who's alone, afraid to be alone and doesn't want ro not be alone, yumi's cells has been a healing drama for me At times it gave me courage, confidence, relatablility, hope, gratitude, happiness and envyā£
I have high hopes for sunrookie, lol I know nothing of him but I'm anticipating and longing for himšā£
Maybe babi shouldn't have had a full season for himself, maybe it was better if by ep4 or 6 everything was wrapped up for sunrookie to show up faster and this could've been 16eps. Tho I won't mind a full season for sunrookie, I have high high hopes and I want to know how yumi will be with him
I'm mostly grateful the breakups made yumi stronger. And unlike 2521, she started appreciating her past lovesš

An educational kdrama
This kdrama is one of my top kdrama, it has its sweet and fun moments that makes me giggle or give me butterflies. Its so bright and leaves a lot of good feeling after each episode that I wished it had more episodes than just 14. The first season was good, but this season feel more special to me idk why. It is really educational I found! It teaches to think before any action or before responding to someone. It also teaches well how to communicate with people around you, like being honest and act wise and properly. It has its funny scenes, romantic scenes, cringe and so onā¦ kinda a slice of life but not that slow!The reason why I gave 8 for rewatch value is because this kind of drama is good to be watched just once, but for sure it worth to watch it, because its not a kdrama with a love story and the end, its a characterās life their hobby, their relationship, their friendship, their free timeā¦

From Supporting Yumi to disliking her
I am not the type to avoid sad endings, death or tragedies but only when it makes sense. I don't like how Yumi went from scared to fall in love to not afraid to hurt someone in the name of self love. Do men not have feelings? Majority of the viewers are women so obviously we are more into women characters but why won't we feel bad for a man who is suffering for no reason at all. I like Yumi's professional growth but as a character she could have done better. Yu Babi was not written well but he still managed to convey the emotions. I liked him. While Woong was terribly humiliated for no reason at all. I just watched him and prayed for him to move on cuz this was getting embarassing at one point. I hope Babi moves on and doesn't hurt for someone so selfish who can't respect someone who treats her so well.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Felt like I wasted my time watching this, but that's life?
I completely loved the first season. It was realistic, sweet, and I guess I love the straightforwardness of focusing on one guy. But in this, we have a mess but one that actually makes sense?We have Babi, who the writers hyped up all the way to the end, making him the sweetest guy to ever exist. Although his character is super flat, he had amazing physical chemistry with Yumi. We strangely don't see his cells, but we learn much more about his background.
We have Woong, who I feel so bad for. His character was pretty much useless, and I felt so bad for him he had to play a simp until the end with Yumi brushing him off each time as if Season 1 never happened.
And lastly, Yumi. I get that we're rooting for her, but it's like we're suppose to ignore she has flaws too. One thing I found sus was when she lied to the real estate guy that Babi was just a friend lolol. And agreeing right away to marriage and playing with your fiancee's feelings instead of following your heart, huh. So much for character growth!
Basically, there were lots of filler scenes, and tons of potential scenes to lead us astray thinking there was something there. It's not the best feeling in the world to see it end like this, but I guess it makes sense. You can't always have that happy picture perfect ending. Cause it's not an ending, it's life.

Absurd view on relationships !
Though I really loved the cells , as they gave me an insight into how a person can interpret certain actions and reactions , the main story was very absurd to me ! It may be a copy of webtoon , but that doesn't makes it almighty !The acting is top notch but the characters are absurd ! There is either no growth in the characters , or suddenly they get promoted/become CEO/top writer . The cells are doing all the talking , but there is hardly any interactions between the lead . They are just assuming/ presuming things . They aren't clarifying misunderstandings !
Yumi , is played exceptionally well by Kim Goeun , we can see her projecting all the emotions very well . But , the character itself is very poorly written and not likeable at all . I understand that the writer may have tried to give her a humane touch with her own flaws , but that would have been okay , if she were shown to accept her flaws and move forward with it ! it seems like she thinks of herself as righteous and keeps judging others for their slightest of mistakes ! Her character is very childish , immature , insecure and selfish ! Another conflicting thing is that they have shown her , to keep her bf at first priority whenever she is in love , but that's not what can be interpreted from her behaviour ! She only keeps them at first position till they follow her around . Her bfs can't talk to other girls , can't live in their own place , have to eat what she chooses and can't send her short text messages (she doesn't reacts , but judges them on these stupid criterion)... I mean what the hell is going around , in which century are we living ? Yet they have depicted , her to be very innocent and deserving of all the happiness , even the guys who have dumped her keep returning to her ! Though I am glad that they started showing her faults in flashbacks in the later half of the season .
I won't recommend this to anybody ,who is looking for romance drama , as the romance here is very shallow , only sticks to few steamy scenes , while the characters are actually not even trusting each other fully ! The character graph here dint make any sense to me ! If you are here to enjoy the anime and the conversation the cells are having , go for it !

KDrama Boyfriend
Babi is my dream boyfriend. Everything about him is something I wish for. I really wished Yumi would've ended up with him. I believe the conflict that ended their relationship in the beginning is something that should've been forgiven because not everything can be perfect. Especially since it was mainly the other girl that was pursuing.Besides the small change I wish happened in the plot, the production is amazing! I love the cells and how they reflect what's happening in their heads. I can't wait for season 3!

Everybody loves Yumi... including Yumi
This drama has some reallay nice scenes, some sweet romance here and there and a guy who seems to be just a little bit to perfect to be true... And probably is not quite as perfect as he seems.There are a bunch of highly annoying characters some highly lovable characters but mostly a bunch who seem to act as fillers here and there.. there to make us wonder, keep us insecure and keep us guessing... However at one point it goes over bord and just becomes meeh...
The cells have been upgraded from season one, but the conflict and passion has been highly reduced and this season could easily have taken 8 episodes to complete if it weren't for the unnecessary fillers and conflicts here and there that made me like Yumi just a little bit less.
All that said, I do not regret watching this and will probably watch next season as well... if there is one.

I'm disappointed that they didn't end up together
This would've been my most favorite drama of the year. I loved the chemistry between Yumi and Ba Bi sooo much. I knew from the webtoon that they wouldn't end up together. But I didn't lose hope. I hate the writer so much. She shouldn't have ruined the character of Ba Bi. If she didn't, I would've said, BA BI IS THE BEST MALE LEAD IN THE WHOLE KDRAMA LAND. But I'm heart broken. Rating it 7 for the scenes I've loved. I'm not even looking forward to watching the 3rd season, if there'll be one.People might say, this is supposed to be educative that one has got only him/herself. I'm a simple girl. I watch drama mainly for the chemistry. So lesson doesn't really matter to me. I felt sad for Woong too. poor guy loved Yumi very much. If he ended up with Yumi, I wouldn't be this sad.

The Worst Main Female Character I have ever seen In My life
Ok this review contains spoilers, this show started really good for its first 8 episodes they should stop at that point, but they continued the show to put the 1st and 2nd seasons male leads in misery because of the selfishness and indecisiveness of the female lead character, I never hated main characters more than I hated the female lead character and the 2nd season male character so much, and I hated the actress herself for accepting this type of role, she rejected the 2nd season male character about 5 times during the whole show, all for very silly reasons actually, and he keeps returning to her each time as he has zero dignity (I don't know why all the Koreans actors in Romance Korean dramas usually with no dignity at all), when you get rejected and keep trying this is not love anymore, it is self-disrespect, that's my opinion, If you want to watch this series for Romance I don't recommend you to do that at all, If you are watching it just to see how the cells act then you can watch it as they are the only good thing about this disappointing showVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Allow me to rant....
I try to write reviews without spoilers but not this one, because I need to rant. Having thoroughly enjoyed Season 1 of Yumi's Cells, I was looking forward to watching Season 2. In many ways, it did not disappoint. The cells are still absolutely hilarious, the acting is excellent, the plot anything but boring, But! But! But what theā¦ is it with the break-up? It made sense in Season 1 because the main characters donāt communicate properly. Thereās a heartbreaking scene where Yumi asks about getting married and Woong wants to say yes but feels he canāt because he is broke. Had he explained his reasoning, or had she mentioned to him that she loves living with him instead of just telling her coworker, they probably would have stayed together. Alasā¦ thatās not what happened and itās acceptable because stuff like that happens in real life too.Now Season 2. We have Mr. Perfect in Ba Bi. Personally, Iām on Team Woong, but he was fine and they certainly looked good together. There were some very cute scenes involving the cells exploring the other āplanet.ā But then Yumi decides to break up. Apparently, Ba Bi cheated on her. I must have missed that part because all I saw was some young girl from work, who happens to live in his neighborhood, having a crush on him. All I saw was Ba Bi trying to avoid any awkward situations by moving from that neighborhood. I never doubted for a second that he really loved Yumi. What the hell was she thinking? He has no control over what other people feel for him. How insecure is she? And how mean? Who the hell breaks up on Christmas Eve? With someone you supposedly care about? Letās not even get into the fact that Ba Bi was extremely tolerant of her still being in contact with her ex-boyfriend. But when he thinks some random girl is cute, without ever planning on acting on that, heās kicked to the curb. Unbelievable.
And that is my main point of criticism of this show. The plot just doesnāt make sense. Clearly, the plan was all along to have Yumi and Ba Bi break up. But the writer designed the character of Ba Bi too perfectly. Had he cheated, sure. But he didnāt. So the break-up here is not due to a lack of communicating but a lack of logic, and I just cannot stand that in a drama. I can handle fantasy elements and flying unicorns, but they need to act so it makes sense. (Side note: I thought Twenty-Five Twenty-One was the best drama ever, until that writer, too, decided to cling to her original plan of having the main characters break up, even though that made zero sense the way they were portrayed, zero, boy I am still so mad about thatā¦ ok end of side note.)
Should you watch Season 2? Definitely the first few episodes but then brace yourself for Yumi turning into a different person from Season 1, much less likeable and acting quite irrationally. Some people have commented that itās great that she puts herself first as a writer, but she could have done that without breaking up with Ba Bi, who actually steered her on the path to becoming a writer. In fact, both of her boyfriends were nothing but supportive the entire time.
One can only hope that Season 3, should there be one, is more like the first season, which was excellent in every way.

Lackluster
I enjoyed Yumi's Cell, so was looking forward to this one. However, I find myself a little bored. I just don't feel the chemistry between Babi and Yumi compared to scenes with Yumi and Wung. I think the actor who plays Babi, just doesn't have the depth (his emotion are flat) compared to the actor who plays Wung ...you feel his emotion. I wish that didn't bring Wung back because you feel so bad for him. I know in the webtoon she ends with neither of them, so it makes it hard to watch because what's the point to get attach to the characters if you know it is not going to end well. You invest in the character and in the last episode she ends up with someone else. I definitely don't think there needs to be a Yumi 3. It is just me, but I keep rooting for Wung, but I know it is pointless. Both relationship our pointless, if the series ends like the webtoon because the series is just a snippet of the long, running webtoon.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

My honest review
Okay so I really really really liked what Yumi and Yu ba bi had, like he was perfect for her, honestly I think the writer/ director/ producer is the problem in this season 2 cos things were going really well between both of them but they just wanted to break them up at all cost, I get that they wanted to follow the books and all but they shouldn't have made ba bi perfect then, they are prolonging it for nothing, Yumi was really happy with him and if they knew they were not going to let them be together at the end, they should have not brought them back together. Well considering that babi is going on any blind dates I really hope in season 3, they end up together because he was really good for her, if we are being honest and compare her relationship with woongi that we know that babi was better for her but like I said they were just bent on making them split up, all in all it was a good watch until episode 14, the cast were still looking beautiful, the music was good, watch it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
