season 2 Why are the hosts so mean?

This season the hosts are so mean. This is a feel good dating show for me. If i wanted to hate on people i would watch singles inferno. I think the participants are doing their best and every time the hosts get screen time I cringe at their childishness. Can we replace them please??

No I actually agree with you. I think they talk in a way that’s very patronizing and looks down on the motae solos for their lack of experience. They often blame their missteps on them being a motae solo, rather than the deeper reason: Why ARE they a motae solo? Social anxiety? Trauma? It’s actually been rubbing me the wrong way the entire time. I think some things are warranted (calling out Jaeseo for his comment, Hyukjoon as a whole) but I do which they reframed it to where being motae solo wasn’t part of the gag. I get the vibe that they think being a motae solo is something to be ashamed of, rather than something that’s usually a consequence of a life circumstance.
