@before11nights oh also the fanfic ideas are just suggestions, I would love to read whatever you write

          	  And regarding the whole love rectangle between Dongho, Arin, Haelin, and Youjin—it always felt like Haelin and Youjin were the ones chasing Dongho, whereas Dongho and Arin actually sought each other out for real conversations.
          	  
          	  I honestly liked how Dongho turned them down before the final paradise date matching. His reasoning was a bit vague—saying it was because they didn’t have more time and that he was leaning toward someone else, so his feelings wouldn’t change. While I would have preferred something more direct, like outright stating that his interest was in someone else, I think it worked out for the best in that situation. Since he had entertained conversations with Haelin and Youjin throughout, and he only cut things off at the end.
          	  
          	  But if you do make a fanfic, as I mention below in more detail, and you take the route of the Junseo and Dongho love triangle with others also interested in the female OC in the fanfic, it might not play out the same way. Maybe both of the guys stop entertaining other conversations after a certain point—like after day 4 or 5.”
          	  
          	  Honestly, for a fanfic, I’d love a love triangle between the female OC, Dongho, and Junseo. I feel like it would be really interesting—plus, of course, all the other participants being interested in her too.
          	  
          	  I’d also i think like to see plenty of friendship interactions between all the members. This season didn’t showcase friendships much—maybe because they weren’t really there. The only ones who seemed genuinely comfortable with each other were Arin, Sian, and Hyejin, as well as Hyejin and Jiyeon with Minseol. It wasn’t until the last episode that we finally got to see some friendship moments between everyone, both male and female

@before11nights I couldn’t agree more with everything you said!
          	  
          	  This might contain spoilers if you haven’t seen the finale yet, but your thoughts on Theo are so true. There were no serious or genuine conversations between them—it was always just him declaring his love, along with all the banter and teasing.
          	  
          	  That ‘first love’ pick-up line when Sian was rejecting him was so… I don’t even know what to say. It just felt so manufactured. I mean, we had Jongwoo in Season 2, and he was also only interested in Seulki, but at least his feelings felt genuine. Even though there might have been some sincerity in Theo’s approach, it still felt too calculated.
          	  
          	  What you said about Dongho is spot on as well. He was initially interested in Arin, then briefly turned to Youjin because Arin didn’t reciprocate. Then, after the campfire moment where Arin redeemed herself a bit, Dongho was still cautious—understandably so, since their first match up didn’t really work out. Then came the whole Youjin fiasco at the campfire, followed by the paradise date with the game-changer and everything that unfolded from there.
          	  
          	  Also, whenever the hosts said that Dongho liked Haelin, I was always like…??? Flustered and fluttered are two completely different things. With Haelin, he always seemed flustered because she came on too strong, and like I said earlier it felt like he just didn’t know how to respond—so he’d just smile. Also, teasing can only take a relationship so far before it becomes exhausting. Their dynamic felt more like a mature person with someone immature—not just because of Haelin’s age, but because of the way she carried herself. Arin, despite being only two years older than haelin, showed a level of maturity while still having playful, sassy moments. It was well-balanced, never overwhelming, and she openly shared her thoughts and worries, which prevented miscommunication or misunderstandings.
