The first season is better than the second

Sadly, I did not enjoy this season as much as the first.

I was so disappointed and shocked that Yi-Nah left. I had no idea that was going to happen and it was really hard for me as she was one of my top two favourite characters!

It took me ages to get used to the fact that Eun-Jae was portrayed by another actress. That threw me right off, and why did she and the other dude stop dating? So disappointing.

I did not like Eun in the beginning. I thought she was rude and it didn't feel like she was ever going to fit in with the rest of the housemates. Thankfully that changed. I liked how she and the landlord became a couple. They were really cute.

I was disappointed that we didn't get to see Jin-Myung and Jae-Wan in it. They were so sweet together and I thought that sweetness would show through more in season two.

Don't get me started on the K-pop group and how they tried to portray that. Ugh, it was such a flop. I personally didn't feel sorry for that dude. He pissed me right off.

I could not believe they spent the majority of the first entire episode just driving around in Yi-nah's car. It was ridiculous how bad she was at driving. Cute car though.

Ji-Won wasn't as boy crazy in this season, however I so wanted her and Sung-Min to get together. Unfortunately, they did not. *cries*

All of the abuse and weird torture in this show doesn't really fit the vibe in my opinion. Yes, it is good to portray certain topics, but at the same time, like the first season, this wasn't what I signed up for.

The whole mystery with Ji-Won's friend was unnerving but I'm glad we finally found out what happened. To begin with, I thought it was Ji-Won's Dad who had abused her friend Hyo-Jin.

There were points where I did get a bit bored and that is why I didn't rate this season as high as the first. By episode 12 I felt like it was dragging. Especially during the episode where they were apple picking. I felt like this was just a filler episode.

I'd probably watch the first season again, but leave it at that.
