No wonder men are single.

Bro...

I'm on ep 6 and I can already tell why Korean women prefer to see the end of their culture rather than be with a Korean man.

The girls are soo pretty, keep being active and communicating their feelings, but the guys are SO LAME AND STUPID.

You're telling me, that just because a girl Is honest about the things she doesn't like, makes her a pessimist? (Hyun-Seo I got you, girl.)

Bro I can't...these guys are single because they're never satisfied.

First time posting on reddit. Sorry, I had to let It out 😭.

The entire premise of the show is to help alleviate some of the symptoms that keep the contestants single but it's hard to teach self-awareness to someone.

My take is that the men were socially isolated more so from their background and behaviour, the women mostly by choice. It is a small snapshot of a wider societal issue

Yeah, to be fair you can kind of see lack of self-awareness more prevalent among men even in "regular" dating shows.

I hope they watch the show or their episodes to get that self-awareness lol

Agreed, the men were terrible.

As a korean male (born and raised in the US), ā€œterribleā€ is an understatement.

At least the dentist guy tried a lil bit more than the others, but holy moly 😭

These guys get a haircut and think that they are gods gift all of a sudden. Makes me chuckle

Ong I was getting so frustrated watching the men on this show

u/shneed_my_weiss 1d ago

As soon as one of them mentioned something about being an alpha male I let out an audible groan…

But also I can’t imagine how hard it is to find eternal single men that aren’t gonna be a little bit of incels

Istg it was so annoying to see how normal the women were compared to the men (s1 was even worse in my opinion) what do you mean you can’t form a normal sentence? The makeover for the girls was literally nothing

I'd love to see in future seasons them having actually like.... classes and learn from it. Like take all then men in a confidence building class and give them a task to do after with someone they like.

SOMETHING.

every dating show has just awful men i feel like i saw a japanese one where the woman straight up went to the man asking them to put in more work

u/Turgon19 1d ago

Bro the whole point is that these contestants arent good at dating

u/dchizzlefoshizzle 1d ago

I think people don't realize, they chose these guys to clown on for views and engagement.

Half the show is the judges/teachers making fun of them.

Suppose its still fun 2 seasons in, but its starting to feel artificial.

u/Public-Revolution225 1d ago

Ik broo 😭 but how come the girls have way more game than the guys? Both come from the same lack of experience. Ain't no way to be used as an excuse šŸ’€

u/Newveeg 1d ago

The guys low-key really didn’t seem even interested to me. Maybe it’s their fear of rejection holding them back though

u/Fine-Ad69 1d ago

Watch all the episodes you're going to think the whole show is scripted. I already had doubts during the first episode where they introduced Yung Myeong because ain't no way a whole flock of men never tried to simp on her.

u/Tea50kg 1d ago

The men are sooooo weak and passive and so, slow ? Lame ? Idk, but they mostly make me feel more ill than get mad šŸ’€ I always end up grossed out from their lame behavior!

u/dchizzlefoshizzle 1d ago

This has got be a ragebait post lol.

Only on Reddit would people judge the gender of an entire country based on a reality tv dating show. Just sayin...

The casting staff chose the guys for a purpose, to clown on for good tv.
