First Love, Again (2022)

This show started well and the idea was good, but the delivery was underwhelming

First of all, some of the summoners seemed so invested in their first love during the presentation, but they changed idea quite easily. I know that it's possible (especially in a shared house with strangers that might caught the attention), but I don't know, I feel like they had no clue about what they were doing. Compared to Exchange, where some of the couples met after years, the chemistry was way too off. The overall vibe was friendly more than love related and this made the show strange from the beginning (are those real couples?). I anticipated way more drama and love triangles, but the dates were a little bit boring and there was no effort to really get to know the others. Plus sometimes I felt like there were gaps or maybe they didn't show some of the interactions making it hard to understand some signals.

Also the panel didn't was entertaining as in other shows.
If you don't have dating shows to watch currently, maybe give it a try. I finished just because I was curious to see the final choice, but I think there are better shows if you are new in this field.

I leave you some suggestions:
- if you like shows that involves a lie or hidden truth, you can watch pink lie and love catcher (my fav seasons are 2 and Bali)
- if you like shows that involves ex you can watch exchange and change days
- if you like shows with strangers living together I recommend Heart signal (both Chinese and Korean version) and love alarm clap! clap! clap!
