A MASSIVE LETDOWN, poor writing, and even worse new male lead!
After the interesting 1st season, the second one was disappointing to say the least.I can only name like a few positive things about this season. The biggest one is when this irritating Bobi guy weren't around. I just can't understand why people on MDL keep saying, they're on his side and he's the best. Maybe all of you are GOT7 fangirls, I don't know, but if that's the case, don't rate Kdramas, please!
They had ZERO chemistry with Yumi, it was a physical relationship since day 1. The guy acted like a typical perfect, handsome and kind dude, but he was anything but that. HE WAS A REAL PLAYER! He may look handsome, but Yumi were still in a relationship when he started flirting with her in the 1st season. You just don't put your coat on a woman, especially if her boyfriend is there, doesn't matter if he's drunk or not. And when they broke up, the first thing he did was asked her out when she only broke up with Woong like a couple of days ago. Or at least, I that's what I thought, because we hardly got any info about how many months passed. I didn't get why Yumi started dating with him so soon, anyway. She didn't have anyone for 3 years after her 1st boyfriend cheated on him, and they were together for 7 years, I think.
The other thing is that the minute they started dating, Bobi already was on a speed dial, I thought he's gonna do the nasty with her in the car. Who the hell does that? I'm not a prude at all, but he was a completely different character after they started dating. And let's not talk about the fact that he basically cheated on Yumi. YES, it was (emotional) cheating. If you don't feel anything for another woman, you just don't move away because you're afraid of seeing her again. How old are you, 5?
And this wasn't even the worst thing he did with Yumi! He lied for a whole week about where he was, he broke his leg, but didn't tell her girlfriend, because he didn't want her to worry? Then, 1 minute later, asked her to marry him, and she said yes? WHAT THE ACTUAL BLOODY HELL? Who the heck does that? Both of them were crazy, for sure.
You can say whatever you want about Woong, he wasn't perfect, no one is, but he never cheated on Yumi, and he only lied about his company. That's a fixable problem. It's understandable why he felt, he's not good enough for her, even tho Yumi never cared about that, and honestly, their whole break up was nonsense. If Yumi wait for 5 minute, he would've said yes to her proposal.
Honestly, I can't believe I say this, but Ruby was the best character on the show and with Control Z they were so funny.😂
If there's gonna be another season, I'm not gonna watch it, unless if it's about Yumi and Woong, because I don't see the point of watching another season with another guy.
I already skipped most of the animated parts because it was boring and irritating. It only felt fresh and original in the 1st season. The writers overused it, and we saw the same scenes multiple times as well, that was also ridiculous.
I don't even remember when was the last time a Kdrama made me this frustrated.
Big potential, big letdown!

This drama is simply genius
My response is correct for both seasons and all episodes, (no episode is redundant) this drama is simply genius, smart and sophisticated, realistic, and unconventional. A spectrum of emotions that are expressed in animation, the endless struggle between emotion and logic (in life in general (work, friends, judgment and more and matters concerning love and reliability), the second season with new insights with maturity and maturation, the importance of open interpersonal communication, otherwise it brings To analyze wrong situations... perfect casting of the entire team, perfect acting from the wonderful main actors to the last of the actors, a simply great drama and how I almost forgot - a great soundtrack, so adjusted and precise for each episode.The kind of dramas you don't forget so quickly
For me 10/10

Yumi's Cells ✨
Vamos lá: Yumi sempre foi sobre ela certo? A gente já tá na segunda temporada e já entendemos sobre isso. E esses dois episódios finais só nos mostrou que os relacionamentos que ela teve (Woong e Babi) transformaram e moldaram ela para o que ela se tornou no final. Uma coisa das quais amo sobre Yumi é a realidade que ela passa sabe? Tudo que ela sofreu, passou, o desemprego, seguir atrás do sonho, namoros e etc. Nunca poderia me indentificar mais com a história dela porque é real. E essa conexão que ela fala foi só por conta dos relacionamentos saudáveis que ela teve com os dois e os manteve, tem muita gente que tem amizade com o(a) ex por aí (e por incrível que pareça as pessoas acham inacreditável isso) mas também foi por eles e pelas tubulações que passou no caminho que Yumi cresceu tanto e amadureceu! Eu amei o final, ele ficou bem fechadinho e apesar de querer uma terceira temporada, eu também penso eu deixar a agenda aberta pros atores fazerem outros projetos, mas acredito que falo em nome da maioria dos telespectadores que querem ver nossa Yumi feliz certo? Com alguém que ela mereça de todo o coração. Quero ver as portas abrirem involuntariamente e que o amor entre de uma vez. Kim go Eun interpreta tão bem, sempre fui admiradora do trabalho dela, mas Yumi é realmente incrível, todo o drama e a mistura com a animação deixa tudo de forma tão única. Tantas emoções e tantos pensamentos. Foi uma segunda temporada recheada de surpresas boas e ruins mas que no final trouxe a felicidade de volta pra a pessoa que mais importa nesse drama, Yumi.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
It started as a rom-com and finished as a melodrama.
I'm going to keep this review short because I feel like if you liked Yumi Cells 1 then you will like Yumi Cells 2 because it has the same tone and feeling, despite me thinking it was going to be different.I knew the ending of Yumi Cells 1 prior to watching the series so I knew that Yumi wouldn't end with Wung, but I stuck with the series because I was SUPER curious of Ba Bi. Even though he's suppose to be older, he's obviously 5 years younger, but you can't help but be sucked into his idol face.
The drama starts out as a rom-com and I loved it. I loved watching the cute couple do their cute couple things. I loved the side stories (like Ruby). It felt very refreshing and different from the first season (or so I thought).
THEN, it starts to go into melodrama mode and ah, so this is truly the heart and feel of the series. I will be honest and say I did cry a few tears and that hardly ever happens to me. I felt very emotional and if that was the writer's true intention then they did a good job.
Overall, I'm not sure if I am the right audience for this drama, but if you liked the first season, then you will not be disappointed with the second season.

This might be the worst romance drama I have ever seen in my life..
First of all, let me make it clear, everything I'm gonna say is NOT towards the actors/actresses!!If I didn't read the webtoon beforehand I would have dropped this mess of a drama immediately.. Tbh I only keep watching till the end because of some actors/actresses. I don't have much to say/add anymore as I already expressed most of my concerns ( mostly about the main character) in my first review. And in general I just don't like how the story evolved throughout the show compared to the og, While I'm well aware that stories tend to get changed and adjusted a lot when it gets adapted into a drama/movie but they could have done a better job imo. It is just soo unenjoyable and not only is this a very poor adapation of a webtoon, but this also might be the worst romance drama I have ever seen in my life. So my advice would be to either read the webtoon OR watch the drama, not both, or else you could be very disappointed like me, or if you really wanna do both, go in with the mindset that they're very different and might not be what you've expected.
I guess how you percept it differs from person to person and it could also be just me, cuz everyone else seems to love it lol (which could also be cuz they didn't read the webtoon idk..) so please take everything I've said with a grain of salt, thanks! :)

1I started for the cells, and I stayed for the cells.
Continuation for season 1, Yumi's Cells 2 continues to focus on dating, thought process and life of character Yumi.If you take out these cute lil munchkins, the cells, the plot is prettyyyy bland in my opinion because it's SO real. The story might not be, so interesting or engaging; but the cells are the saving grace., like the plot is a 7-8 but the CELLS ARE A 10!! The story is centered around one character, her life, so yes, life isn't that much of an adventure, so this drama is like a melo-romance drama, often slow paced with no major events at times.
Yumi isn't 100% correct in her shoes. She's tangled up her love life, mixing her past and present, it wasn't intentional but it's neither fair to your current partner. This girl seriously needs a long break from relationships to focus on herself.
What I love about Yumi's Cells is that Yumi never compromises on her beliefs and emotions. The portrayal of her feelings is extremely on point and relatable that it pokes a hole in my heart, and now I have to rethink my dating principles. I love the message and deeper symbolism of certain things. I won't get deep into it because I might spoil it, but it definitely brings a smile to your face, like it did to me. Though I did feel it was draggy towards the end a bit.
I picked this up after two years and binged it in a day. Why did I put it on hold? I'm scratching my head for the answer too. That's not the worst thing though; the worst thing is that I can't get any more of the cell anymore.
Overall, it's 80% focused on romance, and sure, it might get boring at times. But let's be real: relationships aren't all rainbows and butterflies. This show actually portrays that pretty well. And here's a piece of advice: stop obsessing over who Yumi should end up with and start rooting for Yumi as a person. Focus on her character, career, and personal growth. After all, it's called "Yumi's Cell" for a reason.
With this show, it's either you love the animations or hate them, but personally, I loved them!
8.6/10
p.s: cells you will be missed 😔
THANK YOU FOR READING MY REVIEW!!

I was so excited all throughout! But, in the end… ??♂️
Really.?!? That is where the 2 seasons of watching this series ultimately led to? 🤷🏽♂️This is one of those stories which I feel like it was plot manipulated to have a not so happy ending. (Like that annoyingly st*** Love Alarm.)
So she has another love prospect in the end. Promising? Or, just completely futile and pointless, really? Woong and Babi were actually great guys. But I guess neither of them was good enough for Yumi.
What’s the point of all the exciting, wonderful, heartfelt, giddy, priceless, redemptive moments, when in the end, it would just lead to being alone again.
I revoked the nearly perfect ratings I gave these series just because of that finale. It’s gonna go down in history as one of the series that I would have loved to watch again and again, but can never do so. It was actually a great and fun story, but that finale is just too disappointing to relive.

Maybe a waste of time? Maybe not...
Starts off strong, keeps you watching just to see what happens next but not necessarily in a "this is a really good drama" way. More like "wait... who is she going to end up with?" Keep in mind I did not watch the first season since the reviews weren't too great and I have not read the webtoon/comic it's based off of, but I decided to give this season a chance since I wanted to see Jinyoung and Kim Go-eun together. I was still able to understand and pick things up pretty quickly despite not having seen the first season.Positives:
- The cells were interesting and mostly fun to watch, although they can be a bit "in the way" when you just want to see what happens next to Yumi and Babi. Fun to see how they visually represent emotions and feelings mostly everyone has gone through. It does make typically short scenes drag on though.
- Acting is great, whole cast played their roles well.
- Nice to see Jinyoung and Shin Ye-eun together again, even if it wasn't the best of circumstances.
- Cute moments, heart fluttering moments, funny moments, dramatic moments
- Keeps you engaged for the most part
- The soundtrack for this show is great and fits well
Negatives:
- Some scenes drag on for a while since they have to show how the cells react to the situations
- Can obviously tell it's based on a webtoon given the way things play out. Ending is a set-up for another season?
- The show makes you go through two whole seasons with two different guys, only to have both of them discarded at the end in order to set up another love interest for the next season.
- By the end of the show, Babi and Woong are still not over Yumi, yet she's already off trying to find another guy. I wish they could've at least had Babi and/or Woong move on or find another love interest. Just seems weird to go through entire seasons with these characters and their relationships only to have them tossed to the side anyway (other than being swayed for a moment, Babi was such a great guy, and Woong seemed okay too despite being kind of stalkerish and overly-obsessed with Yumi, yet neither of them get a real happy ending).
- Some unrealistic moments that scream "webtoon plot progression" and unnecessary side plots. Woong suddenly becoming successful and rich, Ruby and Control Z's sudden relationship that I didn't really care for, editor Ahn Dae-young's plotline that was admittedly funny but not really necessary.

Kind of a letdown
OK I watched this in about a week and I wasn't hooked until the third or fourth episode. My eyes fall out over the male leads who are already two of my faves. Why she had trouble choosing is beyond me. Take 'em both.But what puzzles me is this: what the hell was she pissed about with either guy? Does she know anything about life? I had a great long marriage with an angel and now he is one but if you think there was never a moment of jealousy or doubt you're crazy and/or stupid. And she held them to higher standards than she did herself. Unfair.
And the real question is why did either of them want her in the first place because she's not that HOT looking and she is terminally BORING!!! BORING!! Jesus put you to sleep for a month.
I expected more.

La reseña de esta temporada no varía mucho de la reseña de la temporada uno dado que la serie no ha cambiado mucho. Las escenas con las células me siguieron pareciendo más graciosas y más amenas que las escenas con las personas reales. Sin embargo, en esta temporada, los momentos en los que los personajes son planos fueron muchos menos y únicamente fue Yumi en ciertas situaciones, lo cual hizo que la historia fuera más entretenida y no tan pesada.
Algo que me gustó más que en la temporada pasada es que las situaciones que enfrenta Yumi son incluso más cotidianas lo que ayuda a identificarse mucho con el personaje y con la historia y también ayuda a que se haga más amena.
Sin embargo, algo que no me gustó, bueno, hubiera preferido que hubieran profundizado más en las células de Ba-bi. Sus células apenas salen y son momentos muy limitados por lo que se me quedó corto en ese sentido. También me cabreó mucho algunas situaciones y decisiones que tomó Yumi porque no era capaz de entenderla (Bueno, sí la entendía pero prefería que hubiera tomado otra decisión).

Yumi Cells 2 was a very cute watch and I will cherish all the sweet moments :)
After moving on from her heartbreak, we see Yumi (Kim Go Eun) and her colorful cells deal with the courage to step out on her own as a writer as her new romance blossoms with Yu Babi (Park Jin Young).The arc that bridges Yumi Cells 1 and 2 felt natural. In season 1, Babi has been around as her coworker but he never was presented as another love interest option for Yumi. So after breaking up with Woong and we see her moving on, Babi’s presence just fits as someone who is there for Yumi. The flow of both relationships were just as refreshing because Woong and Babi’s personalities were very different. I also appreciate seeing a more dynamic journey of Yumi as a writer since it was always been her dream.
Although I think season 1's cells were more charming, there are still hilarious, emotional moments. Also, surprisingly naughty moments between Yumi and Babi's little cells, I love those! XD That's a testament to how vibrant Yumi and Babi's chemistry were. I love every time he convinces her in his blunt and swoony manner, and when he was so sincere when he takes care of her. What I don't understand is the annoying side characters and the conflicts that seem to stem from out-of-character decisions, which makes me upset till the ending. Other than that, Yumi Cells 2 was cute and I will cherish all the sweet moments! :)

so disappointing it ended up NOTHING PS.I hope there is no season 3. If it still happens like this
The story was going well, but when it was ending, it was disappointing that nothing had ended in self love, it was boring, overall, it was good that they had chemistry, that's why they broke up, that's why I'm even more annoyed, why is it so irritating? with this acting, the good promise is gone, the story line is not really good, the ending is annoying, I wish it was good, but there is no ending. I wish I hadn't watched it so I wouldn't have been hurt. It's really annoying. I hate self love (this is not include lfhgfagfagfgfuygdfgkbgkfsgdsbfgjbxhudfhhvkjsghgsdbdjdkjjh iufghlugf kjjfkih kjjgkh jhgks jhgflshd jkhdfldh jhlisd jhukiflsj jhdjds jfhhdjhy hb fjhdbjl khslk h bv h h h b h bh h h hh h h h hb bb b b b b b b b b b b bb b b b b b b b b b bb b b b bb bb b b b b b b b b b b bkbjkblhsd bh jhjghvlgewv hvbnvoifbf hsppynkjv bhj gjvfj jghvlkfb jhvfjf jksbv v)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
