Participants are so kind, mature, and empathetic.

First of all, this is a fast-paced dating show where the participants have been together for just one month, and it only has 10 episodes, each about 40 minutes long. Obviously, a lot of things are skipped, and we don't get to know their full stories. However, let’s talk about the participants because I found them amazing. They are so kind, mature, and empathetic. As expected from Japanese people, they are respectful and have great personalities!

Shun - He’s the most complicated participant on the show. If you don’t try to understand him, you might be turned off by his behavior. But if you look at him from a deeper perspective, you’ll understand why he acts the way he does. All of his actions make sense when you consider his past experiences with pain and trauma in previous relationships. I would also be mentally unstable if I were in his position. That said, I actually appreciate that he’s on the show because it highlights how difficult it can be for someone to open up after failed relationships. However, I believe he needs professional help after the show to fully recover and to prevent hurting others due to his actions.

Dai - Oh, to be loved by Dai. Imagine being emotionally unstable and having this guy be so patient with you. I also love what he said to Ikuo: "I'm not the type of guy who would make him insecure." Hands down, respect! Despite being the youngest along with Ikuo, he’s not afraid to address important issues within the house. I admire that about him. The only thing I didn’t like was how he treated Ikuo, but I understand his perspective.

Kazuto - This guy is like collecting men as if they’re keychains, lmao. But am I complaining? No, because I would also be head over heels for him since he’s so nice and has a decent personality. The fact that he doesn’t take anyone for granted after learning they like him is impressive. However, he’s one of the participants I’d like to know more about because he’s so mysterious.

Ryota - Oh, come on, Ryota, don’t push it so hard, lmao. You’re handsome and nice, but you shouldn’t press your affections on someone too much, as that can be uncomfortable for them. Nevertheless, I appreciate how he always listens to Shun and doesn’t get tired of his behavior.

Alen - Impressive personality! He’s a must-have in any dating show because his presence likely keeps things in place and at peace. Although he’s like a peacemaker, he’s not nosy and knows his boundaries. I love that about him. I also admire how he adjusts for Kazuto, slowing down his fast-paced nature just for him. I personally think he’d be a great friend in real life!

Gensei - I refuse to believe he’s already 34 because he still seems like a baby! He’s so cute!

Taehoon - I also appreciate him being on the show because he’s mature, and I like the advice he gave to Shun. I wish him the best outside the show with his family and love life.

Usak - I’ll forever miss his chicken breast shake, lmao. Despite being the sexy guy at work, he’s quite shy. I love him and wish him luck as well.

Ikuo - I love that he told Dai it was painful to see how Shun was treating him and that Dai deserved better. I think that’s true. Although he might seem nosy, I can really feel his care for Dai. I just wish he had arrived earlier; he might have had a better chance with Dai.... or maybe not.

I hope I didn’t forget anyone.

I truly enjoyed the show! It might not be the best dating show, but it’s binge-worthy, and the participants are all nice and lovable!
