"what we’re really dealing with here is a 28-episode drama, not two 14-episode seasons." I really don't know what direction this drama will take, but taking into account the webtoon, I'd set my expectations for more than 2 seasons. It's a great ride, though!
I usually really dislike the season format too, because in most cases the story starts meandering and the whole thing looses punch but in this case, I trust the drama. There are several interesting character arcs, and the whole plot is leading somewhere

Yumi considering throwing away Woong's memorabilia and ending up keeping all the stuff, so relatable 😂 I've literally had that interaction with my Cheapskate Cell, "if you're
keeping a damm t-shirt, you're sure not getting rid of a perfectly good keyboard" (btw, it's a gorgeous keyboard)

Jinyoung is so cute!!! I loved the first season and I'm even more excited for the second season with him as the lead 😍😍😍😍 He's so handsome and sweet and charming. How could any girl resist???

Having just finished season 1 on Friday, I was able to jump straight into season 2, which follows on seamlessly. The visuals and tonality are consistent with the previous episodes, there is no discontinuity.

Season 1 had a slightly melancholic mood for me, but maybe that was because I already knew beforehand that there would be a break-up. I'm curious whether I'll feel differently about season 2 once Yumi is over the pain of this break-up.

This season, I find Bobby much more interesting and sympathetic than in the previous one. So I'm all in for him and Yumi becoming a couple.
Ruby continues to be very annoying. I can't understand how men can put up with that.

I usually dislike the season-format for dramas too, but I think in this one case I’m okay with it. As @missvictrix puts it, it seems more like a long 28 episode drama (betting on a third season, so more than 28 eps), than two separate seasons. Also, the continuity is strong and the story seems to be confident in the direction its taking - no doubt a result of having a finished source material, something I find that most season-formatted dramas to lack.

Yumi acting normal in public while being severely depressed privately was very much my experience with breakups. I never went as far as drunk-singing at 2 in the morning (living with others has its downsides), but girl I get it. Never had a bookworm guy with a literal idol’s face be into me though. I think Yumi’s going to do well for herself, no offense to Woong. I’m already a goner for Babi. Also, don’t throw away the keyboard! Woong may be gone, but that keyboard will stay beautiful forever. Or at least until it stops working.

The Gong Yoo and Min-ho fan clubs were ripped straight from my subconscious. This is plagiarism and I demand compensation lmao.

The format with many seasons makes sense in this drama. I like the fact we can follow her daily life and her different relationships. It's very realistic. The Cells are there to give the funny and inside view touch.

I liked the idea of the fan clubs, Naughty Cell has the best taste! :p

I'm curious about her relationship with Ba-Bi, will it be just a transition or a real one?

@missvictrix I loved your first impression on first episode of second season of Yumi's Cells, I'm always loved the seasonal format of Kdramas like this one, and for me, I completely watch not only the first two episodes of second season of this Kdrama but also it's the 15th and 16th overall episodes of this Kdrama. So while I'm so excited waiting for Yumi's Cells 2: Episodes 2-4 weecap next week, here's my funniest highlights from episode 2/16th episode:
[SPOILER]

Agree with everything you said missvictrix. I hoped the show would continue from a time jump. After all they've given us time to forget Woong. However, they didn't. And i was back to shipping Woong and Yumi. I found Yumi very guarded around Babi last season so I couldn't root for them. But then, this show always puts us in Yumi's shoes unless we know about the male lead's cells too. So like Yumi was guarded around ba bi last season, she opened up here since the first episode and so did I. I joined Babi's fan club immediately and I'm staying here for the run. I had no doubts that this show would do well in a seasonal format because it is a 28 episode drama and may be more. Already jealous of those who may be waiting for all of it to end to watch together. Lucky folks. But i can't wait. Small pieces of wisdom such as the whethering the storm by staing in a boat rather than getting swept by it like last tome is what I like about this show. It's profound, funny, light hearted and heart fluttering. I can't believe I didn't like Babi last season. All I needed was to watch 2 episodes of this season to convince me otherwise.

Thanks for another great recap @missvictrix.

It was so nice to be back with the cells and Yumi for the next instalment. I am loving that OST has kept a lot of the songs from season one as I now realise I saved more of these songs on my K dramas playlist than I thought.

Be Melodramatic has ruined me, because every time I see someone with a guitar I am laughing whatever the context.🫢

Looking forward to the next episode.

As soon as I saw Jinyoung in season 1, I realised right away that they gonna break up hehe. It's a good thing though that relationship got mixed up with lies and lack of communication and assumption so good it is ended.
I hope Babi will be a more transparent person than wung, not to suffer our Yumi and their extremely cute cell. Actually, I am in love with the choice of blue colours and the background of cells since season 1, it is exceptionally beautiful.

I must be alone in my bittersweet feelings while watching the new episodes for season 2. Yumi reminiscing about her relationship with Woong, trying to get rid of the tokens of love they shared was tough for this fan to watch.

I found out half way through season 1 that their story was based on a webtoon I knew nothing about. By that time I was hopelessly in love with this couple and watched in denial of what I read would eventually be their demise.

Babi? I didn't like him. He seemed like a player who gave off the wrong signals, who was sly in his interest in Yumi all the while harboring a girlfriend. I must admit in season 2 he seems a lot better and does bring a different aspect into Yumi's life.

BUT...the writers did too good of a job of playing out Yumi & Woong's sweet romance as did Kim Go-eun & Ahn Bo-hyun. Their chemistry was off the charts and that is why I find it so hard to move on.

Babi is nice and understanding toward Yumi but I don't feel the connection yet, or see them physically attractive as a couple. I totally admit to being biased and that my loyalty to Woong is fatal to Yumi's future but I can't help myself.

If there is no season 3, I'm hoping we see Woong come to a better understanding of what he needs to do to win Yumi back and they reconcile toward the end of season 2.

I can dream can't I?

A great start to Season 2! It felt like putting on your coziest sweater after not wearing it for some time. I kind of ignored Bobby in the first season since I was more invested in Yumi/Woong. This episode did a great job of highlighting his charms. Add me to Team Bobby!

I can't believe I forgot how realistically Yumi's Cells portrayed its romantic story until I watched this eps. Then I realized how much I've missed this unusual romcom (and am glad to know that it delivers just as well as the 1st season).

I just soaked up all the nostalgic feelings this introduction eps gave me. The painfully accurate way it showed the stages of grief as Yumi went through the aftermath of her breakup. The craziness of our subconscious mind. The fickle nature of decision based on feelings.

I just. Adore. Everything about this opening eps. I hope they keep up the good work for weeks to come.

It's unfair to rate a drama before it fully starts, but with such writers and good season 1, it was obvious that season 2 would be flawless too.
For once, the season format is well used, as the season 1 could be Ok to watch as a single one.

I love the way they showed the breakup scene again only with Woong and the world around them in black and white and only Yumi in color. Because Woong and their world together was now part of the old times, it’s from history like a b&w movie. Yumi is the life force that goes forward. Well done.

Team Yoo Babi 😆
