When Love Class isn't Love Class anymore

Remember when Love Class was actually about a "love" class, lol? Like, how has it turned into a K-pop show with idols, a competition, etc.?

I'm not hating and do think it is good so far, but I'm just not sure why it has been called a third Love Class instead of its own thing. The only connection I see is that some of the leads are in university, but the plot has totally been lost.

Even Love Class 2 steered a bit away from the original concept, but the setting was still college and the main couple (of the three) were still in a senerio where they had to do a project together in class (similar to the first one where they had to do something about being a couple or family or whatever). Ergo, "Love Class 2" made sense. And I'm not saying they must stay true to the original concept, but creating sequels of a show with the same name suggests the premise would be the same?

But now we are doing idol stuff, and I'm not sure if we will have any sort of "Love Class," but we are only on episode 2. When one of the four leads walked into class, he asked someone, "is this group 4?", so maybe that will tie into it, but it isn't shown whether his pair (Thai boy) is in the class/his group.

Also, I must say the first bit about the competition and how fans (kids I presume) were shipping the two leads together (trainees at that point), and they showed a recording clip of them sleeping in the same bed.

That whole thing gave me so much ick because I know this was and is still a thing that variety shows, competitions, etc. do, giving idols zero privacy and encouraging/allowing the obsessive, intrusive, inappropriate behavior of fans (not all fans are like this, I know).

And then the AI edits of them kissing done by a fan(s)? It just made me deeply concerned because this is 100% real life.

But anyway, I am interested in seeing how this develops, and I love that it is so far cute and funny without being tryhard. The first couple has this angst and tension of yearning for each other but being in different positions, while the second couple is all fluff and cute. They have this communication struggle because the Thai boy only knows some Korean, so he tends to miss the details and leave without their conversation being resolved lol.

Initial thoughts on JJ & "Love Upon A Time" (2026)

So, granted, I am only on episode 2 of "Love Upon A Time," but I saw a comment about how the show is hard to watch (presumably because of JJ), and they aren't feeling the actor. And I get where that is coming from, but I have surprisingly come to really like this dude, even though I'm not that far into it yet.

Truth be told, I ALMOST dropped this during that episode 1 scene where Kun is chasing a purse snatcher, and he runs by putting his arms straight back like kids do. Like there is a thin line between doing too much and doing just short of that to make it work with this sort of humor/character. But I am glad I gave it a chance because the later chase scene in the past was absolutely ridiculous and comedic gold.

Kun is different from your typical perfect lead that is desirable and flawless. He's weird, goofy, clumsy, and struck with really, really bad luck that gets him into terrible but hilarious situations.

And it's so funny because he faces it with a smile and his signature phrase of "i’m okay" in different languages. It definitely leans toward a slapstick sort of "dumb and dumber" humor, but it isn't bad or hard to swallow for me; I wouldn't even say it is "overdone," it's more like you either like it or don't.

I also love the fact that despite this guy's weirdness and bad luck, he is surrounded by good friends who sincerely like him as he is. The opening scene of him walking into his birthday party like he had been through the war and back was so funny and heartwarming to me. There's just something I really love about truly loyal friendships with no strings attached or conditions.

The premise of him having bad luck is so fun, and it reminds me of "Mr. Unlucky Has No Choice But to Kiss!" which is probably my favorite Japanese BL, tied with Ossan's Love (the funniest JBL, no notes). It's super unserious, and I love that this dude so far is 100% true to himself, no matter what situation he has been put in.

Like the water being hot at the fortune teller's, but to him it is freezing cold -- that's just hilarious to me and creative. And his reactions, while overdone and loud (that is his character), make it all the more funny.

Now, what I hope is that this "bad luck" has a backstory or is related to the plot somehow, not just an inserted device for humor, because I appreciate at least a semblance of meaning and purpose in shows, lol. I'm not sure yet how his time travel has to do with his luck (again only on ep 2), but we'll see.

In conclusion, I think that whether you like this kind of humor and character or not, props have to be given to the delivery. It's a silly good time, and isn't meant to be serious.
