Is Love Really Blind?

December 23, 2024

Watching Love is Blind across different countries—Japan, Sweden, the US, Brazil, Mexico, and Dubai—has been nothing short of fascinating. It’s not just entertainment; it feels like a window into the psychology of love and relationships across cultures. Each series showcases how people navigate love, family, and societal expectations, revealing how cultural values shape the very idea of what love should be.

In some places, like Japan, love feels more thoughtful and deliberate. I’m especially impressed by how practical and mature the participants are, even in their 30s. Their approach feels grounded, though at times, it seems they hold back on emotional expression. In contrast, other versions lean heavily into aesthetics and romance, reflecting how surface-level attraction can define love in certain cultures.

This is just my take, but if you’re curious about how love translates across cultures, Love is Blind might surprise you.
