“A dating reality show where couples who have broken up for various reasons live together, reflect on their past relationships, meet new people, and find their own love.”

Hello everyone! Did you watch "Transfer Love 2" which aired in 2022? It was a very popular season, and many people were obsessed with it, creating a term called "Hwanchinja" (those obsessed with Transfer Love). It seems like the participants were so charming, and many couples showed their genuine feelings, which resonated with many people. Transfer Love Season 3 is currently airing, so I decided to review Season 2, which is considered a legendary season!

The main attraction of Transfer Love Season 2 was Hae-eun. The most talked-about story was Hae-eun and Kyu-min's relationship. They shocked many with their seven-year relationship, the longest among the participants. They had a lot of pictures and videos that captured their affectionate memories, as they had spent so much time together. However, their hearts were not on the same page. Kyu-min did not want to give her any hope, as he didn't want to reconnect with her, while Hae-eun cried every day seeing that side of him, making many viewers feel heartbroken.

The plot twist started when the "megi" (new participant) appeared. From the moment he first appeared, Hyun-kyu, the megi, made his presence known by asking Hae-eun on a date. His direct approach swayed Hae-eun's heart, making everyone wonder who her final choice would be. Hyun-kyu and Hae-eun became the talk of the town, creating many memes like "Naebyonu" (See you tomorrow, sis), and "We met when we were 21, and now we're 29". Now that we've covered the highlights, let's dive into who the participants are, who their Xs are, and who ended up as couples!

*Spoilers ahead*

X revealed

Won-bin X Ji-soo (1 year 4 months dating)

They were a couple who met at Chung-ang University. They broke up when Won-bin went to the military and Ji-soo went on an exchange program. They moved in with uncertainty about each other, but after moving in, Won-bin seemed to have regrets while Ji-soo didn't seem to have any feelings, making them a heartbreaking couple. Ji-soo is an English teacher, and Won-bin is a college student majoring in Physical Education.

Tae-i X Ji-yeon (6 months dating)

Tae-i and Ji-yeon were the couple who had the shortest relationship. Tae-i showed that he had no regrets, while Ji-yeon seemed to have feelings for Tae-i but also got along well with Hee-doo. Ji-yeon is a college student majoring in Hotel Management at Kyung Hee University, while Tae-i is a barista and brand editor.

Kyu-min X Hae-eun (6 years 4 months dating)

Kyu-min and Hae-eun were the most attention-grabbing couple. They met in college and spent almost all of their 20s together, making their relationship significant as everything was a first for each other. Their different feelings for each other left many viewers feeling heartbroken. Hae-eun is a flight attendant, and Kyu-min is a video designer.

Hee-doo X Na-yeon (2 years 7 months dating)

Hee-doo and Na-yeon met at Yonsei University and were a couple with completely different personalities. They showed that they like each other, but also fought with jealousy, causing many to worry. It seems like they were a couple where it was difficult to predict their final choice, as they showed good developments with other people. Hee-doo is an ice hockey player, and Na-yeon is a sports announcer.

Hyun-kyu X Na-eon (1 year 2 months dating)

Hyun-kyu and Na-eon were the couple who had the least regrets for each other. They had similar drawing styles and showed a brother-sister chemistry, cheering each other on. Even though he came in as the megi later on, he got along well with the other cast members. They are both college students: Hyun-kyu is attending Seoul National University majoring in Physical Education, and Na-eon is attending Hongik University majoring in Law.

Final Choice

Hee-doo X Na-yeon

First, Hee-doo and Na-yeon became the final couple. They showed hesitation and uncertainty until the end, but eventually chose each other and displayed a sweet side. Seeing the final scene made me feel that they only had each other from the beginning.

Tae-i X Na-eon

Tae-i and Na-eon, who showed a comfortable and cute chemistry, chose each other without much surprise. Apparently, right before the choice, Hyun-kyu recommended a line from the movie "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood" to Na-eon, which she used for her confession, making Tae-i surprised, which is a funny part. Isn't it so cute?

Hyun-kyu X Hae-eun

And finally, Hae-eun's final choice was Hyun-kyu, who many had been waiting for. On the day of the final choice, she took off the necklace Kyu-min gave her, showing her determination. It's impressive how Hyun-kyu won over a 7-year relationship, and it's impressive how Hae-eun made this big decision. They are a handsome and beautiful couple who still receive a lot of support from many people.

Transfer Love 2 was the most entertaining reality show I've ever watched. It was a fresh topic and made me think a lot about relationships. I feel like I wouldn't have been able to get this invested in other people's love stories and cheer them on like this if it wasn't for Transfer Love. It was a program where I could listen to the stories of the five couples, laugh together, and cry together, unlike what I initially thought when I only read the concept, which seemed like a sensational topic. I'm looking forward to seeing if the next season will live up to the hype of Season 2. I recommend watching Transfer Love 2 on Tving! Thanks for reading today:)
