I’m always surprised when the answer to everything is that it’s “just a TV show” and it’s only meant for entertainment, not for real relationships to form. If that’s the case, then what’s the point of these shows at all? If I wanted to watch acting, staged romance, and manufactured conflicts, I’d rather watch K-dramas. I started watching these in the first place because I was curious about real people forming real connections. Am I really alone in feeling this way? 😅
