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."

4 Japanese actresses and 4 Korean actors will have to undergo 6 different auditions all focused on kissing.The language is a big obstacle but with the help of the translator they manage pretty well to communicate.
It's a bit of a shame that their eyes seem to be on the phone and communication times are getting longer.
The real problem started when they started to have feelings for each other and have to act out kissing scenes.
Considerations that I made during the broadcast, I thought that women were superior in acting to men.
The 5 observers didn't do much and were also poorly dressed.
Finale, relationships or not, they put them on a plane and send them back to Japan.
3 couples were formed:
-1st, he now seems in love with the second and instead goes back to his ideas and pairs up with the first,
- 2nd couple, I didn't like at all, he didn't even move and waited for her to go to him, then the kiss, no comment, I would have punched him
-3rd couple, he's cute and shy and writes her a letter in Japanese
Did they really maintain their relationship or was it just a show?
I don't know what the experiment was aimed at but it doesn't seem like a great success to me

Cute and chill dating show
The acting was meh but if you want a light romance I would recommend. Don't go in expecting their acting to be the focus, its not. I like the cast especially the actresses. One thing that annoyed me was the crying, why can't they be professional in front of the judges? The best part is the funky opening song sequence- Charleston Boogie- I LOVE ELECTRIC SWING. I also loved the scenes in the sequence like the girl on the floor watching the guy do his goofy dance. An interesting point was the language barrier, it made the show better and posed real world scenario of people from different countries acting and dating.All in all if there is a second season, I will watch it!
