In recent years, dating reality shows have sprung up everywhere. They started with sweet, flirtatious everyday romance and have now evolved into dating games featuring secret werewolves. Even a neighboring country has come up with the astonishing idea of bringing exes back together on a dating show.
Viewers were growing tired of the same old thing, and just as industry insiders thought the genre was nearing its end, a new video-streaming platform launched a dating show that defied the naysayers and went on to break viewing records.

Tips: 1. No spoilers for the side couple. Place your bets, no changing your mind after!
2. The setting is somewhat fictionalized.
3. Discuss respectfully.
4. Don't project onto real people. If you do, keep it to yourself and enjoy the pairing quietly.
