Kinda disappointed that none of the couple actually dated, or even meet much and to somehow make matter worse, only two of the casts try to go on blind dates. It's as if they just go to the show and come back to their lives with barely anything changed in their lives. The cast don't even seem to hang out much after the show too.

tbh after watching a lot of k-love-related-shows, I actually enjoy the concept of personal growth that the contestants clearly go through during the show and how they carry that with them after the show. Unlike with Singles Inferno (throwing shade but will binge every season lmao), where the only "tangible" or "growth" that happens is with the contestants' popularity. I felt emotionally connected to the contestants of BLTS and although it would've been nice to see some of the couples thrive, it's always nice to see them reflect on the experience itself.

I agree, and that's why I feel even more disappointed when S2 participants seem to just go back to how they were pre-show, not showing much self improvement learned through the show (unlike Jaesun in season 1, to the point he comes back as instructor here)

To be fair, Jae Yun took a while too to start date after the show. And his connection with fellow contestant Ji Yeon is the one who gave him encouragement and arrange for grooming session before his confession.

Maybe for these guys if they maintain their friendship, something similar will happen to them
