Great Message and break the usual K-drama stereotype!

Tackle the aspect of moving on in life, healing from past wounds, and relying too much on application to determine one feeling.Despite the majority of outrage of the ending of Love Alarm 2. I really enjoy the show for what the message trying to convey.

The Characters

Jojo
This girl really went through a lot and a major guilt complex. Her flaw of running away, "wishy-washy" attitude, and lack of communication with other characters can cause a lot of frustration for viewers. Despite that, I'm glad that she make a decision and move towards being a better person.
For me, the highlight of her character when accepting her past and feeling of heaviness and moving on with life. I'm glad she slowly heals from her past baggage. She's actually my favourite out of the three.

Hye Young
Hye Young character takes some time to grow on you from season 1.He remains to be a patient and respectful to Jojo. His presence brings comfort and serenity to Jojo. His flaw is always sacrificing his feelings for others, which Jojo highlighted on. Moreover, this season briefly touches on his family which adds a nice character to him.

Sun Oh
To be honest for Sun Oh, acts the way he did is due to the lack of love in his family and getting hurt from Jojo. Despite his selfish behaviour I find his character quite endearing.
Though, he continues to act like a brat when things don't go in his way and in the process hurt both Jojo and Yook Jo in the confrontation scene.
I'm glad he gets the proper closure with Jojo in the end and slowly move on to have a proper "fresh start" with Yook Jo.

Gul Mi really grows on me this season. Her bratty attitude is still there but her motives to see the developer is hilarious and ironic. I do enjoy her character this season more.

I find the cast for season 2 shrinks by in size. For the characters, I do enjoy the 3 mains for their flaws and character development.

Cinematography
Continues to be good! The shots are beautifully taken. I stopped several times just to take a screenshot of the beautiful scenes.

Music
The new ost is great! Can't wait for the new soundtrack to be out.

Things I don't like
Several plot points got shafted and barely got enough explanation such as Brian Choo and Duk Gu. It will good to have a further explanation of the apps and their relationship.
Maybe it's just me there's a lack of proper explanation on The Ringing World plot. The stalker guy just got arrested all of the sudden. :/

Some parts of the show feel a bit draggy, this could be attributed to the slower pacing in season 2.

Most of the negative feedback due to the end ship :(

To those who are willing to give this drama a watch, please keep an open mind and try to understand the message and lesson behind it. You might truly appreciate it.
