"Actually, when I decided to watch the show, I didn't have high expectations, especially because Korean shows are known for all the participants just seeking fame and not really wanting to date. I felt that the people on the show forced themselves to think about dating even though it wasn't their goal. The hosts also excessively tried to interpret everything as romantic, even though I didn't feel that way. I wished the show focused on participants wanting to improve their acting skills instead of a dating show, and that they could meet as friends rather than lovers. I also didn't understand why Japanese women were brought in with Koreans and forced to speak Korean while Korean actresses could have been chosen. But again, the goal is just to make money or maybe the show is originally Japanese and involving Koreans is a new idea.

Now let's talk about some of the characters.
I didn't understand why Dong Kyu treated Nozomi the way he did. Even if you don't like her, you need to separate work from personal feelings. Maybe something happened off-camera that we don't know, but his acting is definitely bad. His relationship with Rio seems sincere, and I felt that he really wanted to be with her, but his expressions seem very cold and hard to read.

As for Tae Gyun, I feel like he's eccentric. Everything he does is strange, and his facial expressions are odd. I don't know if I'm being harsh or if he really is creepy, but I didn't feel any love between him and his partner; they just seem like friends.

Woo Shik and Nozomi, I honestly felt the sincerity in Woo Shik's relationship, and his Japanese has improved a lot. He tried to talk to Nozomi in all ways, and it's clear he's not just doing it for the show. His acting is the best among them, but I was shocked when he chose Honoka; it seems like he forced himself to choose her even though he doesn't have feelings for any of them, they just seem like friends to me.

As for Ji Hyuk, maybe he's the best person among them. His personality is great and he knows how to deal with women, but he needs to improve his acting because he goes overboard sometimes. But I expect to see him soon, it's clear that he wants to become a professional actor and didn't come just to play."
