'Dare to Love You' Disappoints Viewers for THESE Reasons

Fans and viewers are always excited for new K-dramas as they have a variety of series to add to their watchlist and fresh faces to see every week.

Among the ongoing shows occupying primetime slot is "Dare to Love Me." This series is Kim Myung Soo's comeback, following one year of hiatus.

Unfortunately, despite the hype for his return, fans are struggling to finish the drama. They expressed their disappointment and frustration at Myung Soo's new work.

"Dare to Love You" is adapted from a webtoon and its characters are played by Kim Myung Soo and Lee Yoo Young. It revolves around the story of an aspiring webtoon writer, who lives like it's still the Joseon era, and a free-spirited apparel designer, who refuses to let go of her dream.

Based on some of the audience's comments, the pilot episode of the drama already showed "cringe comedy." Others commented:

  • "I am not sure about this one. It tries to be funny but it doesn't deliver."
  • "I was not thrilled with episode 1. I'm a bit sad since the premise was promising."

Apart from failing to capture the viewers' attention with its pilot episode, the female lead's styling received backlash. Even though some viewers didn't like the plot or characters at first watch, they were willing to give the series more time to win them over.

However, frustration with the characters, styling, and plot persisted as the drama continued.

  • "Please stop looking 'noona' so dirty, and style her properly. Why is she dressed like that? She's only 30."

  • "I really don't like the actress playing the female lead."
  • "I find myself wondering why I'm still watching. I do like the leads but the rest of the story hits every single troupe, not necessarily in a good way."

Meanwhile, although the rom-com drama is not appealing to everyone, it still has dedicated fans who enjoy watching it until the end.

  • "I don't know why people are badmouthing this drama. It's sweet, light, and fun. I like the main couple and the second leads."
  • "Low key hate-watching this because of Myung Soo. Lee Yoo Young deserved a better character than this bland and silly lovestruck innocent noona."
