O amor é para os trouxas (2022)

Best friends turned into lovers. But there is a rough process before that two become a couple and admit that they loved each others

Both are about dating shows, one is a drama but still everything related to the dating show is the same, even lee dahee

A new cast of singles comes together on a remote island seeking love. Who will find that special someone and make their escape to a luxurious getaway?

Love is for suckers feel like a parody of single's inferno, or well any other dating show
It's like the bts of dating shows, the schemes, the fakeness, the double sided plans, the trash behind the trash, a guilty pleasure xD

Both actually have my favorite trope, the "film a variety show inside the drama and have the producer fall for her/his subject"

It kinda feels forbidden, like breaking the 4th wall and have the person behind the camera fall the person infront of the camera. But if it wasn't a drama, would never know about this cute little bts

similarities
- main characters who have are in a 'closer than friends less than lovers' /'almost lovers' relationship
- one has participated in a dating show

differences
- ML in Love is for Suckers has always been there for the FL and she is the reason why he participated in the show; whilest in Bakayarou no Kiss, he just saw her on TV after she left the ML's hometown (she always transfers school, that's why they had to separate)

Both are friends to lovers with many years of friendship. In both shows the ML as been in love with FL. Both are rom com.

Both dramas are friends to lovers and the pacing and style (the slice of life feel) are very similar to each other

Entertainment Industry, and the Love shows both were involved in.

they differ in execution and overall impact. but one of the episodes made me recall Love is for Suckers couple/dating show.

Some *SPOILER* Similarities are:

The ML likes the FL First.

FL looks for other options than the ML at first.

The FL is successful and a bit selfish,

The ML is caring and selfless when it comes to the FL
