Foi uma porcaria

O desenvolvimento da história na primeira temporada foi bom até, sendo que, a segunda temporada chegou e acabou com tudo. Primeiramente, muitos buracos na história por exemplo: Oque a família da Jojo devia a sua tia ? E oque eles fizeram para ela os odiarem tanto ? Outro exemplo : Oque aconteceu com a última cena da segunda temporada? Não contou oque aconteceu. Já na trama senti que a porta se obrigou a gostar do menino da bicicleta, já que ela jogou a lança nele pelo app apenas para se sentir confortável na situação. Problematizaram o Sunoh botando ele como se fosse uma pessoa tóxica e mal amada e no final ele se sentiu meio que obrigado a terminar com a coadjuvante. Não sinto que é um drama bom, pois investiram bastante um casal ( Sunoh e Jojo ) para no final ela ficar com o menino que não tinha atitude é que não demonstrou o seus sentimentos por ela na primeira temporada. Enfim, essa temporada foi um surto coletivo. Para mim esse drama acabou no 4 episódio da primeira temporada antes do acidente da Jojo e do Sunoh. Se forem se iludir e passar raiva e ódio assistam é bom para isso pq pra amar n eh n.

Uma seca de temporada

Nem cheguei a ver os episódios até ao fim, fui fazendo fw. A actriz principal tem um papel que enerva, uma chata, confusa e idiota. Quanto aos papéis masculinos... passam a vida a chorar! Sério? Demasiado parado para o meu gosto, aquilo de ficarem a olhar uns para os outros durante uma infinidade de tempo definitivamente não é o meu estilo e já está muito visto nos Kdramas. Enfim, o tema nem era mau já que nos lembra que a tecnologia não pode substituir os verdadeiros sentimentos. Se a primeira temporada foi engraçada e entretia esta dá sono!

O que mais me marcou

Lindo demais a lição no final, ela ter escolhido pelos próprios sentimentos, e não esperar pelo app. "E então pela primeira vez eu disse à ele que gostava dele" que frase marcante! Jojo decidiu isso, escolheu demonstrar seus sentimentos. Não foi o app q fez espontaneamente, mas sim ela. O escudo bloqueou o app dela de fazer o loveAlarm de quem ela gostava tocar, com a lança ela conseguiu ter essa liberdade de escolher demonstrar ou não seus sentimentos. Ela ter feito porque quis foi tudo, ela queria demonstrar o que sentia ao Hye❤. Ela ter se libertado de seu passado foi o melhor acontecimento. Hye um cara paciente, super compreensivo, se importava em como ela se sentiria, nota 10, Suno se reconciliando aos poucos com sua mãe, e dando oportunidade pra um novo amor foi muito lindo. Me prendeu demais essa história, AMEI?❤

Uma segunda temporada diferente

Senti que essa temporada foi um tanto solta. Primeiro que não mostra o que realmente aconteceu após aquele último episódio da primeira temporada, segundo que senti falta de mostrarem mais o envolvimento dos personagens. O casal tinha um total de 0 química. A segunda temporada foi muito diferente, esperava que fosse um pouco mais adulta porque os personagens já são todos adultos. E sobre aquele cara do mundo ressoante? Achei desnecessário.

Sou team Sunoh e apesar do que fizeram nessa temporada, gostei do final que deram a ele. Ele finalmente está ao lado de alguém que gosta muito dele, e ele enfim vai seguir adiante e superar.

Kim jojo foi mais uma vez confusa, mais uma vez ela não entendia os próprios sentimentos e não foi sincera. Poderiam ter trabalhado mais no amadurecimento da Jojo, porém deixaram ela naquela personagem sem graça e chata.

Quanto ao Hyeyeong... Esse personagem mereceu o final que teve. Ele acaba ficando com a garota que ele tanto gostava e finalmente foi correspondido por ela. Gostei de terem mantido a amizade entre ele e o Sunoh.

Realmente uma porcaria ?

eu assisti a primeira temporada em dois dias, chorei horrores, amei a história, as interações, a série estava perfeita! quando vi que tinha segunda temporada fiquei logo ansiosa, mas MEU DEUS DO CEU o que fizeram com essa série devia ser crime!! essa segunda temporada não tem pé nem cabeça, a história ficou completamente insossa! chamar de porcaria ainda é ser gentil.
Eu realmente peguei ranço da prota, essa garota é muito burra ?
Não conheço uma pessoa que tenha achado boa, mas se você é uma dessas pessoas por favor reassiste pq não é possível.

O desenvolvimento mais lixo que eu já vi!!!

Primeiro de tudo: A HISTÓRIA É CHEIA DE BURACO.
A primeira temporada conseguiui prender um pouco a atenção do pobre telespectador, que infeliz, espera que a história se desenvolver com mais calma na segunda temporada. OK, esperamos por 2 anos (isso mesmo, 2 ANOS!) a nova temporada em busca de respostas de cenas e detalhes mal resolvidos, porém, em vão. Nunca soubemos porque a tia da Jojo não gostava dela e o que a mãe da Jojo devia à tia. Simplesmente abandonaram o barco em relação e desenvolver esse enredo.
Segundo: Os dois pretendentes eram um pior do que o outro. Mas vão falar "ah mas o Sunoh gostava de verdade dela, só tava com receio de correr atrás dela depois de tudo o que aconteceu, a mãe dele não apoiava os dois pipipipopopo" Mentira que se ele quisesse ele ia atrás dela sim (referências: Boys Over Flowers, Jardim de Meteoros). E o Hyeyeong é simplesmente sem sal nenhum. Não vou nem apelar pro quesito beleza porque sabemos que isso é pessoal, mas a personalidade dele é totalmente seca e ele não tem química nenhum com a Jojo. Tudo bem ser tímido, mas esse não era o caso.
Terceiro: que final horroroso foi esse???

I am upset about how Jojo never considered Sunoh's feelings.

First of all, let me say that I never really write reviews, but this time I got so baffled I had to.

The story evolved around 3 characters where one(Sunoh) got completely walked over because he wanted to get his happiness back, second(Jojo) stayed as messy as ever, not even bothering about how her actions would affect Sunoh. And third(Hyeyeong) got the girl just because he somehow became a certain option but we don't know why it was never made clear why Jojo couldn't choose Sunoh anymore when she swore that she'd never love anyone more than him. Yet she kept running away from him, not even trying to give him an explanation. She just pierced his heart with her words and left. I really wanted her to become more mature as the years passed, but she stayed as a victim and never came out of that state
And above all the "Love Alarm". The app remained in their daily lives even after everything.
If we think that this whole drama was about not trusting an app for choosing a loved one but our own hearts, then why did JJ go to such lengths to get the "spear"?! The application was not destroyed, nor ever used by main leads. They still relayed on the app and who rang whose alarm Although that couldn't be trusted. As Sunoh's mother said her husband still rings her alarm even tho he's cheating on her. Or we could think that this drama was about the pain of unfulfilled first love and moving on but they failed to deliver that message.

Furthermore, I knew SO & JJ had no chance(it kinda become more clear when teasers came out), I hoped they'd clear out their misunderstandings as grown-ups should. but oh boy.
I am upset about what they did to the characters and how they pushed Sunoh away. He had so much potential to emerge from a broken teen to an accomplished adult, to grow and learn self-love, but writers ruined his character. They destroyed him and then gave him a "happy ending" I'm sorry what?! he isn't even being himself around Yukjoo. He had to heal first and then get back with her. However, at least she treats him right, and really loves him so I hope she'll make him happier.
Jojo never returned the smile she stole from Sunoh. She made him cry and walked away after saying "I'm sorry" but never solving for what.

Despite being painful as hell, I really loved the last meeting scene of JJ & SO. That scene carried so much pain and nostalgia, their thoughts of what it could've been or what will never be. I wish she told him the truth behind everything right there, the entire dialogue they shared lacked honesty, and that meeting had to make them let go of each other. (mostly SO) but of course, the writers had to make Sunoh accept the confusion instead without any clarifications.

On the other hand, Gulmi had more character development than I expected, watching her chasing hearts was rather entertaining. even tho she was faking it she was learning to treat others better. (hopefully)
I don't know why nobody said anything about Dukgu, his appearance was rather short.

I must admit actors did a great job portraying their characters with what was given to them. The cinematography was wonderful, the scenes were shot beautifully, and the brightness was a bit off but it was still fine.

Edit: For those who think I disliked the ending because JJxHY was endgame let me tell you that it's not like that. Since I knew that would be the ending from a long time ago. My main concern was what they'd do to characters and how they'd end up developing them. what would happen to the love alarm & if they'd stopped using it?
JJ returning a smile to Sunoh didn't imply her dating him. All I meant was for her to give him any clue of what happened because at least he deserved it. The best she could do for a person that still makes her emotional was to give him proper answers, so he could move on. That would be a humane thing to do. (from my point of view obviously)
My (and the majority of comments) main complaint here is still the execution of characters and not giving them decent conclusions.
SO basically became the wasted character for the convenience of a writer to write the JJxHY arc, he was used as a plot device for the ending. he was portrayed as a pitiful person who tried to hold on to what made him happy in season one and in season 2 they still continued using him as just that.
the writers didn't even bother to give him proper closure at the end of the season, we see him still holding on to his feelings, but right before it ends he lets go. The writers were so bet on pulling that "it's all fine" card that they somehow thought that ending him up with someone he doesn't even love (for now) was a solid idea.

The only reason why I watched this till the end is Song Kang who is one of my fav actors. He keeps getting better and better, turning into a prominent actor. Can't wait to see his upcoming projects.
As for If I recommend this or not, watch it if you can deal with heartbreak. Season 2 has a whole different vibe from Season 1.

Felt like a different drama

From the first time i saw the trailer, I was scared that it would be too different from the first season. The whole feel of the drama felt forced, not just the storyline but also the shots and pacing. Because of the change of directors, the season felt like a whole different drama compared to the first. While the first season had more of this lighthearted, comic feel to it, this season had a more serious, adult vibe. At first, I thought this would be appropriate since this is where they mature but it lost some of the dramas charm. Even though the first had this lighthearted vibe, it didn't take away from the seriousness of situations. This season made the maturity and seriousness feel forced.

The setting are also all different than the previous season which made it further feel like youre watching a whole different drama. The school, the houses, the convience store. Like, they had to change the CU to a 7-Eleven. Even though it had 2 episodes less than the previos, the pacing made it feel longer. And the OSTs was forgettable, unlike the first.

Eventhough I dont agree with the ending, i didnt like that the relationships weren't developed that much and it made me not sympathize with Jojo unlike the previous season. The drama didn't solve Jojo's real problem: running away. From the very start, when things get hard, she runs. She said that she put on the sheild to "protect" Sunoh, at first sure, i can see that, but when Sunoh found out about it, "all she can think about was Hyeyoung". Like, girl, you gave this guy that was so in love with you, hell for 4 years, and now he knows about it, you can't even think about how you've hurt him. She didn't give Sunoh the proper apology that he deserves. She said she loved him, but she loved herself more, leading to both their suffering. And with all this, unresolved problems, she runs to Hyeyoung. It felt like just because he's Hyeyoung, she should end up with him.

With all this, I think the story and especially the direction the director chose in filming this season is really disappointing. I think even if the story turn out the same but had the same style, or even the same colour palette of the first season, I would have enjoyed it more because it would connect; but from the first episode, I already knew this wasn't the same drama I waited for. I felt like it wasted the 2 years I waited for this drama. It made me hate Jojo and made me feel bad for Hyeyoung and Sunoh. I'll just pretend this season never happened.

Disappointment

I would describe this show as a big disappointment; I did not have high expectations for this show. The bar was low, and somehow the show manages to go lower than that. As someone who watches a lot of Netflix shows, this is at the bottom of the list. Everything was flipped here; the way Netflix executed this show was horrible. In the first season, we all can agree that Sun Oh had a lot of screen time and Hye Young did not. However, here is the opposite I wouldn't even consider Sun Oh a main character when he had minimum screen time. I went from liking Jo Jo's character to hating her. The whole "spear" situation was just wrong. She goes from installing a shield to using the "spear" to ring Hye Young's love alarm.. and they want us to think that she is sincere and is a way to show Hye Young that she loves him? No, it was stupid and idiotic; why couldn't she be honest for once in her life. I was so happy when it came crumbling down when Hye Young found out. She deserves no one! They tried to make Sun Oh into a villain when we all know we all feel pity for him, at least give him a good ending him crying all the time is not going to give closure to his character. This was poorly developed and horrible written. The only reason why I kept watching it was for the developer's storyline and because Jo Jo's cousin, she was the only interesting character on the show besides the developer(s) and Hye young. Hye Young was a sweetheart, but he deserves better than Jo Jo. I want to say that I am neutral in the whole love triangle situation, but Netflix did a horrible job. First, they make a majority of the viewers in season one like Sun Oh, and with little information about Hye young, expected people to like his character be happy that Jo Jo ended up with him... NO. The ending was no better than season one's ending. Jo Jo was the villain in her own story; she created all the problems herself.

Okay. I'm being honest with you. I keep waiting this drama for almost a 2 years. I guess it's not only me right? I'm so excited whenever I heard that love alarm 2 will be air soonest! So I keep my self ready for another best drama. So I expected it will went well like yes it does, but idk if just for me.. but for me it's just OK, u know what I mean.

Let's focus on the quality. Idk if it just me or what? The lightings and the brightness is too much. It's so hard to watch because of the brightness unlike in season 1.

It feels like I watched a different drama. The whole vibes is too much different than the first one. I like the first one especially the sweetness touched of the whole drama is still in there ( romance between sunoh and jojo) but after watching the season 2 it feels like I am watching a different drama with more mature vibes. It's so serious and I can't even finish a episodes without skipping some parts.

I skipped most of parts and I almost drop this season 2 while watching a few minutes of episode. It's clearly most of people who waited this season 2 want jojo to be end up with sun oh because of their iressistible chemistry and the fact that sun oh don'y deserves to be hur like this. The trailer scammed us and build us a high hopes that she will end up with sun oh but in the end... I think they should end it up in season 1.

The bad rating really isn’t about the endgame

PROBABLY SPOILER ALERT!


I dont even know where to start. At first I felt sad we were getting only 6 ep, but I couldnt wait for it to end.
It was the most tiring, slow-paced, boring season ever. I have watched season 1 probably over 5 times. It was my first kdrama and that’s why I was so invested. For someone to wait for almost two years and checking every month to see if there was an update, this was a let down. The bad rating is not because of the endgame, trust me.

Let me just start by saying that the characters were all completely different (in a negative way). We knew none of them really. There was no character development. Sunoh was pretty much non-existent (like how can you give the most important character so little screentime while he was the one that made almost everyone watch and like this show). Jojo was the most toxic, indecisive FL I have ever seen. How can you still be like that at that age? She was only hurting everyone around her for no apparent reason. She had no characteristics and no evolvement. No goals, no dreams- nothing. She was never studying, never caring for her friend (seriously what was the purpose of putting her in the show?) or anyone around her. Yet she always felt like everyone around her was hurting her. Instead of wanting a boyfriend (I think her having 3 bfs in a kdrama is a record), she should’ve just let the brothers alone to avoid their friendship to break. She just toyed with them. They did Sunoh so dirty, both Jojo and Heyyoung.

Heyyoung grew up with him and let a girl come inbetween them. Yes, maybe he liked her first but that never means he should’ve had her from the beginning. He worked with her for years and she never, ever knew him, never cared for him. That says enough about him. He was a very passive person. When Sunoh wanted to communicate about where they went wrong as friends (because Sunoh really did care), he just had the audacity to completely disregard him and just walk away without saying anything. That was wayy worse than what Sunoh did to him (even though in s1 Sunoh was like “Jojo is not an object, let her choose”). They both broke the bro-code. Heyyoung was the most boring character ever. When characters are silent and shy, they usually have an inner quirky-ness. Heyyoung had nothing. I still dont know what Heyyoung was doing at his internship or what he wanted to become in life. Just like Jojo; no dreams, no goals- nothing. His only obsession in life was someone he loved for over four years without knowing a single thing about that person and having never really talked with her (seriously, what did he like about her again?!).

Sunoh on the other hand was the only normal character (plus Gul-mi, never thought I would say this). He was trying to communicate to understand what was going on and what happened. He wanted to give Jojo all his love when he never even had love from his closed ones. He was never a rich brat. I never understood why people thought he was a bad person. There was not one bad thing about him. He was always there for others without judging them. He never cared about his money or fame and even did good causes. He was not a toxic character nor was he the unhealthy factor in his relationship with Jojo. Even with Yukju he was straighforward and she knew everything about what he did and didn’t feel. Throughout the series I kept thinking of how Jojo did not deserve him and how Yukju was a sweet girl. I wish instead of making him go through so much pain, they should’ve just focused on his relationship with Yukju. I am sure more people would’ve liked the show then. The scenes with his parents were really confusing and the whole production felt rushed. In s1 everything looked more real and thought-out, now we didn’t even see one single worker of his mother next to her.

There was literally no plot, no plot development. Romance consisted of them just walking each other home and texting if they have eaten. They were so boring. Jojo was just a pathetic character and I don’t get how no one left her in her life without dying. Jojo and Heyyoung both lacked the skill of communication and communication is key. That was a major red flag. Also how she did the same FAULT again when using the spear for Heyyoung. Like you used the shield and regretted it and now you use the spear? No wonder he had left. I was glad he did to prove a point.

I never thought I would’ve said this but the only one I really liked in this show was Gul-Mi. Such a funny, insane but still sane girl she was. I was glad that Duk Gu hadn’t died and she got her karma.

Duk Gu was annoying to me about how Jojo would’ve rang Heyyoungs love alarm regardless. Because there was no reason for her to like Heyyoung. There was nothing that he had that Sunoh didn’t have. It was all about timing. She breaks up with Sunoh because of her past issues but four years later she still has those issues and no character development, yet suddenly gives Heyyoung a chance. Why? Why not Sunoh? Because suddenly Heyyoung came to the damsel in distress. She would’ve liked anyone at that point.

ALSO, where was the whole Anti-Love alarm group? Why put that in the drama in s1 only to never go back to it in s2? That would’ve made it more realistic and interesting. We all were waiting for that.

The saddest scene were I broke down was when Sunoh and Jojo met up for closure. It felt so forced and if it was just for SK and KSY they probably would’ve chosen JojoxSunoh. I felt like it was all about timing. It looked like a missed chance. Her saying that she would install the shield again if she went back was disrespecting Sunoh. She should’ve felt ashamed for causing him so much pain. I felt like Jojo would’ve liked anyone who came in front of her. If Sunoh would’ve stayed by her side regardless, I wonder what would’ve happened.

But to be honest, I am glad she ended up with Heyyoung. Both passive and no chemistry but Sunoh deserved better so I am glad. He is way too precious to end up with a toxic person like Jojo. There was also zero reason for him to like Jojo. She was not worth it. I am sure the actors all think the same way and I am happy Jung Ga Ram is serving in the military cause he won’t get all the backlash now.

Nobody should feel sorry. Netflix knew what they were doing. We all warned them for not putting out a half-assed season. The fact that they also took away our Sunoh moments and made them Heyyoungs (liking list etc) was so painful. The scenes were lacking and a lot of things were left out or rushed (where the hell is the love alarm 2.0 event scene?!). I won’t watch anything of this director and screenwriter again. I cannot believe how they passed this. Even my cat could write it better. There was not even one “wow” moment. I just feel pain for my wasted two years.

Through its different approach to love, Love Alarm also denounces the excesses of technology.

P.S: My username wasn't taken because I'm team Sun Oh (not that I don't appreciate the character or the actor, on the contrary) but because I wanted to change my username after a long time and it happened when me and my friend named ourselves Jojo and SunOh in a game for fun (I also had a character named Hye Yeong lol), at the time I hadn't even watched Love Alarm but I really liked the name so I kept it. Note that Jung Ga Ram also has a character named Sun Ho (close one...) in another drama called Mistress and he's now my favorite underrated actor.

If you want to avoid major spoilers, you can skip to the conclusion. (which I will post in the comments section because MDL reduced the characters limit)

This review of Love Alarm was written as the episodes progressed (I binge-watched both seasons in a few days) and I'd like to say that everything I wanted came true and everything I understood about the characters' feelings was confirmed in the end, so I can only be satisfied.

This conclusion is perfect because it's healthy and realistic. That she should end up with Sun Oh was inconceivable, she loved Hye Yeong, not him. Sun Oh found happiness on his own and moved on, such is life.

From the beginning of the story, Sun Oh's character didn't come across as a very nice guy, but he's also somewhat pitiful. He wasn't the person Jojo needed, and vice versa. Is he a monster? No. He actually has a pure heart but that doesn't change his immaturity which turns into toxicity for the people around him. Yes, we can see that he starts to have genuine feelings for Jojo, even though his initial motives were questionable.

On the whole, the drama focused more on the psychology of the main characters and I love this kind of romance, the transition from high schoolers to young adults really makes the difference with season 1, the tone changes (highlighting the contrast), you can feel the characters coming of age and the fact that we've followed them through several periods of their lives gives way to a nostalgic feeling, the music etc. also plays a big part.

Apart from all that there were so many good things, from the cinematography, the music, the sci-fi aspect, to the fact that so many things are represented in the form of drawings (even animated ones) and the whole thing around Jojo's drawings and their meanings.

To the people saying Jojo did not consider Sun Oh's feelings : First, stop watching from his perspective only. You are the one blinded by your biases, only caring about what Sun Oh feels instead of Jojo, Hye Yeong and even Yuk Jo. So blinded that you failed to see his character development. Since you didn't even understand his character and the drama, you couldn't appreciate the perfect ending he was given or anything. Second, https://www.tumblr.com/lucymontero/646944171870109696/love-alarm-lovestruck-in-the-city-and-a-womans this article should be enough.

To the people who blame Jojo for kissing Sun Oh in the beginning : She was on bad terms with her boyfriend and eventually she was able to breathe thanks to Sun Oh. It's true that he was forcing, but she ended up accepting the kiss. They were where no one could see them (well, obviously it's a drama, so it doesn't go as planned), and she was tempted... the way he looked at her, the sexual tension, and it is a real handsome guy, we can't lie to ourselves. When we know that many adults (men and women) have already cheated in their lives, it's not a teenager who lets herself go with this kind of context that shocks. I don't think she felt that way with her ex, far from it. In short, she is not to blame. If you want to blame someone SO much, blame Sun Oh.

What can we expect from a character whose childhood was so painful, whose youth was full of struggles, a traumatized teenager with burdens so heavy to bear? Yes, you could say she acts in an annoying and selfish way, however, unless you are completely biased because of Song Kang and that you have a very superficial view of the drama and her character (did people throw their brain in the bin (probably values too) while watching season 1 or did they forget it all? or maybe they skipped through it because all they cared about was Sun Oh and seeing him end up with Jojo. being offensive here, but that's nothing compared to what I've seen), you will feel nothing but empathy. Don't even make me start on the impact that such an event can have on someone... Survivor's guilt, yes, but it was her parents who tried to kill themselves with her.

Sun Oh's behavior can be explained because of his family situation, right, I do understand that. But if you think it's all Jojo's fault or that what Sun Oh did at the beginning is right but what happened afterwards isn't, there's something wrong with you. Viewing lens, I guess. This drama is not for everyone and I've learned to accept it.

What Deuk Gu says to Hye Yeong, "It was Jojo's will to use the shield and spear. Without it, she would never have gone out with you. It was because of the shield that she broke up with Sun Oh and you appeared on the list of people she could love. The shield being a variable, Jojo's will intervened, and you became a potential love interest. She wanted to ring your Love Alarm, even if it meant using the spear. She was willing to go that far to express her feelings for you. If that's not being sincere, what is?" This moment sums it up perfectly.

What's also nice about the end is that Jojo still doesn't ring Hye Yeong's Love Alarm without the spear and she still has the shield, but they know their love is sincere and it was really beautiful when they confessed their feelings out loud. It reminded me of when Hye Yeong was courting Jojo the traditional way without relying to Love Alarm, and the fact that he wanted to build his relationship with her bit by bit was great. Of course, there's that final scene where we see the moments when Jojo rang Hye Yeong's Love Alarm, they left before it started working but anyway, it was obvious. Nonetheless, it was perfect as a conclusion, for us viewers.

I transcribed two other dialogues that are important:

(the discussion between the two brothers) - Five years ago, I told you that we shouldn't release 2.0. - You don't realize that the Love Alarm you created makes people feel lonelier. Version 2.0 was created for those lonely people. If they'd known that lots of people would love them, there wouldn't have been any mass suicides, 23 lives would have been spared. - Is that really what you think? People only go out with the app's recommendations. Just like we only read articles from our search portal. Just as we only watch movies recommended by the algorithm. - What's wrong with that? - It eliminates countless possibilities. If there's an error in the suggestions, version 2.0 prevents love from being born. - An error? How are you going to prove it? - Kim Jojo. When she installed the shield, the person she loved changed. - Programming bug. - It wasn't a bug. It was Jojo's will. With the introduction of synchronization and willpower, this little mistake changed her life. Do you understand now?

(Deuk Gu talking to Jojo) "It was obvious you liked Hye Yeong. Do you know why you hesitated so much? You've never seen his Love Alarm ring. That's why. Even though you knew it was because of the shield, you doubted your feelings, because his Love Alarm had never gone off. That's why I wanted to stop the new function. People have become too dependent on technology."
