Plot Overview

Love Alarm is a South Korean series set in a world where a mobile application can notify users when someone within a 10-meter radius has romantic feelings for them. This technology sparks a wave of excitement and confusion, particularly among high school students. The story follows Kim Jo-jo (Kim So-hyun), a bright and optimistic high schooler who juggles the complexities of love and personal challenges.

Jo-jo’s life becomes entangled with two young men: Hwang Sun-oh (Song Kang), a popular model from a wealthy but neglectful family, and Lee Hye-yeong (Jung Ga-ram), a thoughtful childhood friend with deep feelings for her. As the app spreads, it influences their relationships in ways both heartwarming and heartbreaking, leading Jo-jo to question the role of technology in discovering and maintaining love.
