This movie is so underrated. It is ao good! Josh Hartnett was so awesome I have never rooted for a villain before. I don't know why the bad reviews, but I am so glad I watched this movie. 100 stars for me!

I came here to read other reviews and so far it seems quite promising. I am actually liking it, but I am only at episode 2. The one thing I find unnecessarily annoying is Death's character, I was expecting her to be cool you know, but she is unnecessarily chatty and her violence lack elegance. She is like a cheap gangster bully. I would prefer her to be just like the lead female in Tomorrow, cool, less talk, on point and elegant violence.

If I could rate this drama higher than 5 stars I would. Not because the story is fulfilling or have a justified ending, but because the story is real, even the emotions. This is what happened to me. This is my story. I have read other reviews and I could relate why most of the audience couldn't understand the way Kim Jo-jo handled herself with Sun-oh. I was like that, the immaturity, lack of support, family issues, while trying to make ends meet in that age does that. It will make you scared, harden your heart, make you feel guarded. It's like self preservation. When I was young, just like her, my thoughts were, school, work, how to get more money for expenses, feed my little brothers and sister, how to help my mom with all the bills piling up etc... The part where Kim Jo-jo couldn't get ahold of Sun-oh after the accident did it for her. Just like me, I was afraid to hold on to that 1 good thing in my life, because I felt that wanting something good seems to be are being taken away from me. I was afraid that my boyfriend at that time will tell me at some point, that he doesn't love me anymore. I will not be able to take it so instead, I broke up with him, keeping me shielded in that thought, I was the one leaving and not being left or being unloved. Yes it is selfish but, I was thinking, I can be selfish just this once, when everything else, is already not going my way. So Kim Jo-jo is like telling everyone my story. This is true, even years later my ex and I didn’t have a closure and he still doesn't know why I broke it up between us. I didn't want to explain it either because when we met he was with another and I liked someone else too. My past was too hard to look back on and seeing my ex again is bringing all the painful hardlife I had to go through. Maybe, just maybe it was the same for Kim Jo-jo. To the writer of Love Alarm, thank you for telling my story. The ending is the same, I ended up with the 2nd male lead of my life, who was able to make me want to remove my shield, in the time of life that I have matured, a bit braver than before, in time of your life when you know you can now finally handle a broken heart. It is really the timing.

Kim Ji-Soo's lisp is ao bad here. It is very hard to hear and quite annoying. I watched the whole thing with very low sound. I can't stand her speaking.

I wanted to stop on episode 2 but Benedict Cumberbatch made me stay, but the story was too dragging and unnecessary. I think a full length movie on this should be enough.
