19/20 (2023)

Captured by your heart

I initially didn't want to watch that show, thinking it was a casual youth drama.
Oh boy. Was I wrong.

Once I pressed start on the first episode, it was over for me.
"No dating".
That was the only rule for 19 school.
13 episodes of a show where they are not allowed to date.
Interesting, I thought.
And I slowly was drawn deeper and deeper each episode.

This show got me hooked at how it is portrayed.
It shines with its honesty.
Teenagers who don't know how or what they are feeling.
Having a crush, falling in love, being happy but also being disappointed, being rejected and also feeling helpless.
We get to see it all, while cheering and suffering along with those teens.
The emotions are real and raw.
It's up to them, if they want to talk about it or not.
So over the time friendships, small rivalries as well as wholesome connections were found.
And honestly? I wish I had that bond that some of them shared.

The hosts:
At times, I was so in joy, confused, frustrated or didn't even know how to feel.
The four hosts were such a nice addition to the show.
They spoke out, what exactly I was thinking. Sharing my joy, clapping, celebrating, but also sharing my frustrations.
I felt like I was part of them, rooting for them, but also being frustrated at some points throughout the show.

Needless to say, that whole show made my heart skip some beats faster.
It was a rollercoaster of emotion, yet it was fun and heartwarming to watch.
I wasn't invested in a show for such a long time, so I am happy I gave that show a chance.

And lastly,
I'll adopt Pyeongseok, Heeji and Sangwon.
Those three captured my heart in particular.
Those three have a special way to interact with people, which made me very curious about them.

Lives in Your Mind Rent Free

Honestly, this show was so pure and fun! The cast was amazing, and it was so great to see them interact with each other and approach each other with purer and more innocent intentions compared to dating shows that feature adults.

The structure itself was very well planned and written. You could see the stark transition from when they were at the 19 school and when they arrived at the 20 house. It made you want to do that with your friends, or wish you had done it when you were that age. It made you immerse yourself in the cast's stories and lives. The whole show was really well edited and seemed to portray their lives pretty naturally and mostly as it were (although I wish I could've seen more of the unreleased moments of the couples and Seo Yeong because she seemed really fun at the end and in the interviews).

Each of the cast members was charming in their own way and seemed genuinely nice. They obviously made mistakes, but most of them quickly owned up to it and even the rejections were handled very maturely. My personal favorites were Jungyun, who was very clumsy and awkward but seemed very genuine and innocent, and Heeji, who was so bright, cheerful, and fun while always supporting all her friends. Pyeongseok's surprising rizz, Jiwoo's unexpected maturity, Yerin's funniness, Sangwon's kindness, and the other members' personalities also definitely carried the show.

Also, shout out to the panel who would voice my thoughts and bring up things I hadn't thought of each episode. They added something meaningful, even if it was just excited squeals, every single episode, which isn't an easy feat.

After every single episode, I was thinking about the show and looked forward to the next episode—literally lives in your mind rent free. I'll definitely be looking forward to, hopefully, a season 2 and more news from the cast! It was my favorite dating show ever, and would definitely be willing to rewatch it. Also, SPOILER WARNING BELOW!

Love how Jungyun Jiwoo and Heeji Pyeongseok are still dating! Hope that both relationships go well (hopefully forever?).

cutest dating show

I'm very invested in this show, i like how they are very honest to each other. I really ship Heeji and Pyeongseok (they r the cutest!!!), they dated up till now after the show. Heeji is the best girl, she's a peacemaker, the mom! i like how they are very natural, and there's a funny moment when they drink champagne for the first time. they said that the color of the champagne is pretty and elegant but it tasted not good. the show is a little bit slow paced but considering the cast's age i think it's perfect. what a pity with such a few episode!! i need more unreleased clips!! a lot of moment have me butterflies in my stomach. I really recommend u guys to watch, they r so freaking cute!

I’m emotionally attached, you’ll do too! ❤️

If it wasn’t for my friend who kept on recommending me to watch this show, I wouldn’t even try watching it. I’m not someone who enjoys watching reality show, let alone a dating show. When she told me, “Just try watching it! It’s different,” I thought I’ll try. Never have I imagined myself getting so immersed in the show, really enjoying watching all of the members spending 2 weeks with each other.

My heart fluttered, my eye got teary, and I felt irritated just like some of them did. I was emotionally attached and I really felt like I experienced all these myself. It became one of my comfort shows, I’ll watch them before going to bed, on the way to school, and even in the middle of classes. I’ll never forget this show! I promise I’ll rewatch them again as soon as I turn 20!

Nineteen to Twenty (Finalmente Adultos) é um reality show de namoro que reúne um grupo de jovens de 19 anos entrando na vida adulta. Uma semana na escola com restrições de namoro e uma semana na casa de vidro, onde não há mais restrições de namoro e eles podem se declarar para seus amados.

Aos 19 anos não tem nada mais fácil que se apaixonar. Dei altas risadas com os participantes e me derreti com a fofura deles formando casais. Mas assistir a esse reality é também uma montanha russa de emoções. É um pouco rememorar como os amores na adolescência são intermitentes, efêmeros e ao mesmo tempo "para sempre". É uma fase de muita descobertas, paixões e decepções. Ao mesmo tempo intenso e nostálgico. Com certeza será uma memória inesquecível para os participantes.

De todos os programas de namoro que eu já assisti (e foram muitos), esse foi o mais legal de todos. Os participantes, tão jovens, foram muito mais maduros e sinceros com seus sentimentos do que muito adulto em outros programas do mesmo gênero.

E no final fiquei muito feliz com o resultados dos casais que se formaram e daqueles que decidiram seguir apenas como amigos. Desejo todo o sucesso do mundo a estes jovens tão amorosos e corajoso. Que eles sejam muitos felizes, independente de qualquer coisa.

Teenagers pathway to adulthood

Nineteen to Twenty is a totally different dating show. I really liked how it had such a variety of things the contestants could do. Everything from different types of classes to a schooltrip. I also liked how many activities they did.

It was nice seeing their immature behaviour trying to be more grown up, going on dates etc. There is always room for improvement, but I think they will learn from this experience.

If I'm going to talk about the cast, I feel like I just want to mention those that specifically stood out.

Firstly, Ji-Woo is such a unique person. Never have I ever seen anyone act the way she did. The way she kept saying things with extreme confidence when the reality might have been different. And how she acted all cute in front of the person she likes, poking them repeatedly and then just tells them it was nothing afterwards. Her overall feeling was a cute schoolgirl.

Also Ye-rin was so funny. She kept on doing ?? after being on a date or starts dabbing or doing fortnite dances after feeling the thrill of love. This just shows how pure and immature she still is.

Another person I feel like I want to mention is Sang-Won. I get that he is just trying to show interest and express his feelings towards Seo-Hyeon, but when he does it that much and follows her around, it just becomes too much. He should give her some space and time to think about her own feelings and maybe also get to know the other guys. This could help Seo-Hyeon understand her feelings more.

A couple that also stood out was Hee-Ji and Pyeong-Seok. They were like in their own world not bothered by all the drama that was in the house. I think it was cute how Pyeong-Seok cared about her when she was hurt. It was also nice to see how Hee-Ji didn't give up on Pyeong-Seok when he was so shy at the start. Her hard work was not in vain.

This show was so nice and innocent, that I was enjoying every second of it. I felt like I could relate a lot to the contestants and to their thoughts about being adults and to their thoughts about the future. I felt like the producers tried their best to give everyone screentime, but I can agree it can be hard when some of them are very reactive.

I was so emotionally invested that when things didn't work out, it felt like I was the person getting rejected. After watching this show, it leaves me with the hope that there will be a season 2 with new contestants.

Sự xung đột tâm lý trong tình yêu của những người trẻ tuổi

Tôi là một tín đồ của show hẹn hò và 19to20 là một trong những show hay nhất mà tôi đã từng xem. Câu chuyện của những đứa trẻ mới bước qua tuổi trưởng thành lôi cuốn hơn tôi nghĩ rất nhiều. Họ có đủ sự ngây thơ và lí trí trong việc tiếp cận mối quan hệ và đưa ra quyết định. Khi xem show ta sẽ có được cảm giác như trưởng thành cùng người chơi qua từng tập phim.

Mối quan hệ của Jimin và Yerin đáng yêu vô cùng. Dù học đã chia tay ngay sau show nhưng tôi cảm thấy họ luôn tôn trọng mối quan hệ và họ xứng đáng tìm thấy nhau. Thêm vào đó là couple Pyeongseok với Heejin. Siêu đáng yeuu.

Ai xem dating show cũng nên xem 19to20 một lần. Không lãng phí thời gian xíu nào.

19/20

i feel like i can't move on after watching this show.

i mean, i felt so many emotions for every single person! I've gotten shocked, angry, sad, happy...but at the end i just love everyone in this damn show ? i really do hope that they continue to see each other and i REALLY WISH that the couples stay together forever!
