It was such an emotional rollercoaster. It was wonderful to see such a happy, positive and mature group of 20-year-olds. I will miss this show.
Seoyoung: I felt quite sad for Seoyoung, she was so sweet and sincere. It reinforced my beliefs, that at the end of the day, when it comes to dating you need to be desirable and know how to play the game, just being nice was never enough.
Seohyun: I really loved her vibe and energy throughout the show. Seohyun x Jungyun is one of the big "what ifs" that was on my mind at the end. They would have been such a legendary couple, I wish I had gotten to see that. As Seohyun said in the end, feelings change very quickly, so if you like someone you should take a chance and confess your feelings.
Sangwon: Talking slowly is important, when you speak in a rush you appear unsure. It's quite hard when you can feel someone's affection for you slowly go away, but as Seohyun herself said coming on too strongly can push someone away. Unfortunately, in the dating game, showing your affection can come off as feeling needy and people's emotions change when they can feel your desperation.
Heeji: Probably my favourite one in the group. She was so caring towards everyone, like a mom of the group.
Jiwoo: I really appreciated Jiwoo's maturity and honesty, especially in the way she spoke to Jungyun and Seoyun. She was very honest about her feelings throughout the show and navigated some tough situations quite well.
Heeji + Pyeongseok: This couple looked so secure and comfortable with each other from the beginning, as if they had been dating for 10 years. I think it's those kinds of couples that last, where there is mutual affection and comfort with each other and feelings naturally grow stronger as you spend time together. I really admire Heeji's patience with Pyeongseok, even though he was shy for a long time and not very communicative, Heeji continued to trust and spend time with him until he became more comfortable with her. They didn't need to constantly step up their physical or emotional intimacy to feel secure in their connection.
It was quite baffling to me that Jiwoo would go for Jungyun instead of Seyeon. To me, it seemed like Seyeon was the better choice - he was more communicative of his feelings, took initiative, was mature and arguably more handsome.
But while reflecting on this, I began to understand relationships a bit better. The initial attraction that Jiwoo felt towards Jungyun was probably quite strong, you could also say that they started to build an emotional connection much earlier (at the Ferris wheel). Choosing one person over the other is not a cold, rational decision as I sometimes see it, the connection and desire that you feel for someone initially can be quite sticky and resistant to change.
