Celluloid Verdict

A killer premise the show never quite works out what to do with — the first season's melancholy is real, but the long-delayed second run drifts and the triangle outlives its own tension.

What is Love Alarm about?

An app called Love Alarm chimes whenever someone within ten metres has feelings for you — no names, just a number on a screen. For Kim Jo-jo, orphaned and living on her aunt's grudging charity, it turns adolescence into a public scoreboard she never asked to be graded on. Two very different boys set her alarm off, she can only answer one, and by the time the second season picks up years later the app has hardened into infrastructure nobody can opt out of.

Critic Reviews

Short review 4 min read English Love Alarm

Love Alarm (2019) Review: A Great Hook, a Wobbly Triangle

Love Alarm is a Korean Netflix romance about an app that reveals who likes you. Its first season is wistful and sharp; the belated second loses its grip.

Yes, with reservations. Season one is a smart, melancholy teen romance worth the time; fans of the leads will enjoy season two, but the triangle runs out of tension.
