ETERNAL SINGLE
A PERSON WHO HAS NEVER HAD A ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP IN THEIR LIFE
AFTER POSTING THE CASTING CALL FOR THE SHOW
4,000 ETERNAL SINGLES APPLIED
Are you nervous?
INTERVIEW APPLICANT 3289
Yes.
You can just leave that there.
IS IT HARD TO MAKE EYE CONTACT?
Yes, basic eye contact is a little hard for me.
Usually…
I have this habit of casting my eyes down.
Could you put your hands on the table as we speak?
Whatever's comfortable.
Do you have any siblings?
I have one younger sister.
What does she think about you?
Well…
Just a guy who's a bit slow?
YOUR LOOKS SHOULD DEMAND MORE CONFIDENCE
My hardware isn't too bad, but my software's a bit…
I think it's a bit like Windows 98 still.
I don't think I can…
overcome this on my own.
With external help…
and through this show,
I hope to create a turning point in my life.
Wow. Bring him here now.
I want to talk with him and see what he's like.
Cupids will help the eternal singles find a match.
I'm Seo In-guk.
-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.
I'm Kang Han-na.
I'm your Cupid, Lee Eun-ji.
I'm your relationship coach.
We're cut from the same cloth.
Right.
Did you have any concerns about yourself?
Our eternal singles
will enhance their unique strengths.
I think darker hair would suit you.
And they'll work on weaknesses they've wanted to hide.
-Personal Training. -Squeeze your glutes.
-Okay. -Push into the ground.
Dressed to impress. No more being single.
Dieting.
What you need are full-body workouts.
You have too much body fat
and lack strength and stamina.
You can change your voice with a lot of practice.
The mind and so on.
Dating is a unique type of interpersonal relationship.
I'm scared of dating.
They will each spend six weeks
improving the parts of themselves they want to transform.
Six weeks later…
The transformed eternal singles meet for the first time.
I feel shy when I make eye contact.
My goodness.
He could've held my hand.
My failure to do that might be why I'm still in this state.
Shouldn't a guy be doing this?
-It was my first time. -I drew a blank.
I'm going to need a drink. What a dilemma.
I'm going to make the effort and approach him first.
It was the bravest thing I'd ever done in my life.
It's my first time too.
I've never felt this type of thrill before.
This is crazy. I'm so nervous.
You can do that when you're not even going out?
Of course. This is what you call flirting.
For me, it's just you.
-"I love you." -You're just pretty.
What if I'm swayed?
Can't you give me a chance?
Hey! I'm popular too, you know?
This is irritating as hell.
I didn't know dating was this hard.
I'm already done for.
You might think I'm crazy,
but I thought, "I think I'm going to marry her."
I want to experience the kind of love
where having just each other is enough.
I don't like sad endings.
Will they achieve
the first romantic relationship they've long dreamed of?
Eternal singles and their first love story.
Better late
than single.
BETTER LATE THAN SINGLE
CUPID SEO IN-GUK
CUPID KANG HAN-NA
CUPID CAR, THE GARDEN
Everyone's so immersed.
CUPID LEE EUN-JI
Eternal singles and their first love story.
Better Late Than Single.
Incredible.
On this show,
we'll meet people who have never had any romantic relationships.
When we hear the words "first love" or "first relationship,"
-we swoon and our heart race. -Right. Yeah.
Isn't this the first ever Korean show to give makeovers
to their participants so they can find love?
And it's not just a makeover of their appearance.
-They get speech lessons too. -Right.
And personality tests.
We helped them transform in multiple areas.
I'm excited to see how they've changed.
-Me too. -Yeah.
You've all met your singles, right?
-Yes. -Yes.
I thought they were all lying.
The reason is when I first saw them,
I couldn't believe they'd never dated anyone.
That's how good-looking they all were.
But then, I realized,
"Oh, this is why."
I could definitely see what the reasons were.
For me,
I met them as someone who will help them, like a mentor.
Right.
But when they walked in and saw me…
That head tilt of doubt.
-"You? Help me?" -"You? Help me?"
So I decided to focus on boosting their confidence a lot.
-I see. -"You're good enough."
I'm growing more curious about who we all met.
-Right? -Yeah.
-That's amazing! -Look at the sea.
This is so nice.
ETERNAL SINGLES' RESORT IN JEJU
Hello, I've been single for 27 years.
My name is Noh Jae-yun.
He's actually the one I met.
You're his Cupid?
INTERVIEW WITH PRODUCERS
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY?
When I was working a part-time job two years ago,
I had this female coworker.
A female acquaintance.
She's on social media a lot.
And she saw the ad for the show on there, and…
Let me find it.
"What's the use of going on all of those blind dates?"
"Seriously, apply for this."
"Weren't you a loser?"
So that's how… Yes.
Could you speak a little louder for us?
-Okay! -Oh, my!
NOH JAE-YUN
I work as a 3D artist.
A 3D artist creates and arranges 3D models
for movies, TV shows, games, and so on.
I currently work in visual effects,
and I'm in charge of modeling 3D assets.
He looks so cool when he's working.
It's such a surprise.
COLLEAGUE, MANAGER
When you said you'd never dated before, I thought you were lying.
Instead of focusing on yourself,
you tend to care for others.
I suppose
like Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion?
I haven't seen it, so I can't say.
Or do you mean someone like the protagonist from Bungo Stray Dogs?
Bungo what?
Is that an anime too?
Yes, sir.
In the anime The Seven Deadly Sins, pride is the strongest too.
Like Luffy's Gear 5…
His name is Escanor.
-Is he the best? -When it hits noon…
-Yeah? -He's at his full power.
Okay, that's enough.
I have no idea what he's talking about.
Jae-yun is really into anime.
How would women feel about that?
It looks like he's firmly set in his own world,
so he's a little hard to approach.
No!
Bring him here now.
I want to talk with him and see what he's like.
MEETING HIS CUPID
-Hello, nice to meet you. -Hello.
I'm Seo In-guk.
-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.
-You're so handsome. -No, I'm really not.
Speak casually.
-Okay. -You can call me In-guk.
Okay, In-guk.
I saw your interview.
Eternal single?
-Yes. -Then, I have a question.
You must've had a crush or something like that before, right?
Nothing like that either?
-Back in high school… -Yeah?
when I attended Vacation Bible School,
-I once held hands with a girl I liked. -Okay.
You held hands? How?
How did you do it?
I held it gently…
Gently?
Do it to me.
Show me.
Like this?
We were all in a circle.
-In a circle? -We were holding hands and praying.
Praying while holding hands? It was that?
Yes.
Someone who is easy to talk to…
Right.
-Someone who is genuine. -Right.
-That's how… -Okay.
-That's how I want to come across. -Okay.
To be honest,
speaking more loudly is a skill that needs training.
-Yes. -What do you think?
You're right.
"I want to speak more confidently."
COMMUNICATION COACH
Even while conversing with me, think of it as practice.
Hello, I am Noh Jae-yun.
-I am Noh Jae-yun. -Good.
"Hello, I am Noh Jae-yun."
"I will learn to speak with confidence,
so I can realize my dream."
"Love deeply and passionately."
I rarely went outside to interact with other people,
so I struggled a lot in social situations.
I want to have more pride in myself
and be more comfortable in interacting with others
so I can find love.
I can't wait to see how Jae-yun has changed.
Oh, my!
He looks so handsome!
Oh, my!
He's simply handsome.
I'm getting goose bumps.
Hello, I've been single for 27 years. My name is Noh Jae-yun.
NOH JAE-YUN NO LONGER ADORKABLE
He's become so handsome.
ANY EXPECTATIONS?
I can't wait to see how far my transformation will take me.
ANY CONCERNS?
I'm worried my transformation will get me nowhere.
On the first date,
holding hands might be a bit much.
I think I could do just the fingers.
Just the fingertips…
Like this.
To my future girlfriend,
I know I have a long way to go right now,
but I will keep doing my best
to become a better man.
Yoroshiku.
-"Yoroshiku"! -My goodness!
He's even making jokes now.
I mean, I look forward to our time together.
He's completely different now.
He's found more confidence.
And he gestures more when he speaks.
-Exactly. -He's totally changed.
-He looks much better when he smiles. -Right.
It's the first time I've ever seen his front teeth.
-I've wanted to see them so bad! -I hadn't either.
Who could it be?
My goodness!
I'm her Cupid.
-Isn't she beautiful? -She is.
But…
she doesn't look like she's been chronically single.
Hello, I've been single for 26 years.
My name is Kang Ji-su.
She's beautiful.
TRULY AN ETERNAL SINGLE?
Yes.
That's right.
I've never had a crush on anyone before.
Have I felt butterflies before?
When I meet new people,
I think I'm closed off.
But I don't do that to other women though.
Boys and girls were in separate classes in middle school.
And in my high school, we had 40 girls and 5 boys.
I also graduated from a women's university.
So I'm naturally uncomfortable around guys.
INTERVIEW WITH PRODUCERS
I've been on about four blind dates.
Five? Maybe four.
I was so nervous then,
so when I was eating,
my spoon was shaking like this.
But I wasn't shaking because I had butterflies.
"Would he be offended if I said this?"
"Would that be rude?" I stressed out about those thoughts.
It's fun when we're messaging each other.
But once we set a date to meet up,
I start feeling pressure two days before the date
about having to go out and meet them.
So I prefer being at home by myself.
When I go outside,
I'm the type who often feels drained.
So it's made me stay home more.
And I've become a homebody.
I once stayed home alone for over a month.
I rarely talked, so I almost forgot how to talk to people.
I thought, "I'll never get married at this rate."
So I applied to appear on the show.
So, you like to stay home.
I'm a bit of a homebody too.
-I am but… -Isn't it great?
But you have to go outside and meet people
to feel new bursts of energy.
-That's true. -Right?
I think the timing of this is perfect.
You won't have any other reason
to leave your house for an extended period like this.
-Probably not for another three years. -Exactly.
You won't be leaving home like this again
for the next three years,
so just consider it a new experience
and enjoy yourself.
That sounds good.
MEETING WITH EXPERTS
Let's say I'm walking down the street and saw a claw machine.
KIM JI-YONG PSYCHIATRIST
If it has a doll I really want, what should I do?
-You put in money until you get it. -I'll have to play a lot.
If you don't play, you won't get anything.
You have to try.
You need to have that courage to risk getting hurt.
I think it's a good opportunity for me.
I want my stay to be
natural and comfortable.
I'm going to try flirting.
"Yes, I am flirting with you right now."
"Yes, I am hitting on you."
I'll try my best.
She's so cute!
-My goodness. -She's adorable.
KANG JI-SU THE BRAVE HOMEBODY
She just needs to keep doing that.
Look at that physique.
-It's him. -Oh, my.
It's someone I know.
He has that tough guy vibe.
Hello, I've been single for 27 years.
My name is Kim Seung-li.
I left seven years ago in 2017.
I went to school at Mackenzie.
I emigrated to Brazil and lived there for about 12 years.
I didn't like it at first,
because I was bullied a lot.
I couldn't speak any Portuguese,
so I didn't really talk with the other kids.
I was embarrassed.
I was really chubby back then.
I weighed between 90 to 100kg, and my face was so fat.
So I lost weight.
I was determined to exercise.
I think I have more confidence now.
I work out every day.
I think it's because I like being in shape.
I learned to play soccer in Brazil when I was young.
I think I'm better than the average person.
Brazil is very open-minded.
When I was in high school, girls would come up to me
and jokingly ask for a kiss a lot.
All of the girls.
So I had to draw a line.
Compared to Brazilians, I was a bit more conservative.
KIM SEUNG-LI TRADITIONAL GUY FROM BRAZIL
He's more conservative than you'd expect.
MEETING HIS CUPID
Someone else might aim for the same girl.
Right, there could be a lot of people.
Then, what would you do?
TEACHING HOW TO GET RID OF RIVALS
What normally happens?
You fight on an emotional level.
But you should just beat him up.
Beat him up?
Subtly step on his foot really hard.
Stomp on it, and he'll scream. Then, the next day…
But why?
He'll end up like this.
A preemptive strike?
This is a dating show, but you want him to beat them up?
So this is the method to get rid of rivals.
When there's a rival,
don't get in an emotional battle.
He can just beat them up.
I'm telling him he can use force to overpower them.
On his rival?
THE FIRST MEETING SPOT
-Hello. -Hello.
-They've met. -They did?
-They did. -Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
Someone needs to initiate the conversation.
This is stifling.
Gosh, that awkward atmosphere.
What's your name?
I'm Kim Seung-li.
Kim Seung-gi.
-Whoa! -What?
Jae-yun spoke to him first.
In-guk's so moved right now.
He's feeling very emotional.
Kim Seung-gi. What's…
-I'm Kang Ji-su. -Ji-su.
I'm Noh Jae-yun.
-Noh Jae-yun. -Noh Jae-yun.
Yes, that's right.
How are you feeling?
Pretty good.
The weather's a bit cloudy,
but it's nice.
It feels nice to be here.
Was your luggage heavy?
It was really heavy.
-My arms were so sore. -Me too.
Yours was heavy too, right?
Yes, I packed a lot of clothes.
They're out of things to say now.
Is it okay to be this silent?
-Then, perhaps… -Do we have to keep talking?
Are you an introvert?
Yes, I am.
I'm almost 97% an INTP.
I heard most eternal singles had the INTP personality type.
Really?
Do you tend to be shy?
-Yes. -You do?
-You don't? -I do too.
-You do? -Yes.
What are you doing? Take your shirt off or something.
-Seung-li? To show off his charm? -Yes. Take off your shirt.
-What are you talking about? -Get them some beer or something.
I'm so nervous.
Oh, my!
She's so pretty.
Hello, I've been single for 26 years.
My name is Kim Yeo-myung.
-Pretty! -She has a beautiful smile.
She's really beautiful too.
-Isn't she so adorable? -Yes.
Originally, I was never interested in dating.
I used to have a lot of friends who were eternal singles like me.
We were like birds of a feather.
There were so many of us.
But when we turned 26,
they all got boyfriends.
I had no one to hang out with, and I felt envious.
I started to wish that I had a boyfriend too.
I have to. I have to escape this life as an eternal single.
What do you think?
I think the tank top's out.
HER YOUNGER SISTERS
Then, is this one okay?
No.
The shorts are out too.
I'm on the chubby side,
so clothes don't look good on me.
I hope to improve myself by working out.
I want to be able to wear cute outfits.
One, two.
Push inward again. Three.
I've been working out a lot and watching what I eat.
I'm investing a lot of time in transforming myself.
WHAT IF YOU FIND SOMEONE YOU LIKE?
If I'm interested in someone,
I think I'd press on like a bulldozer.
I'd probably tell him, "I'm interested in you. I like you."
Flirt? I'll try.
KIM YEO-MYUNG THE SUNNY BULLDOZER
She has such a nice smile!
I think the atmosphere will change when she appears.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
Hello.
-You can sit anywhere you like. -Anywhere…
Really? Where should I sit?
I'll sit here.
-Nice to meet you. -Hello.
What's your name?
I'm Kim Yeo-myung.
-Yeo-myung. -Yes, Yeo-myung.
-What a pretty name. -Thank you.
Seung-li is smiling!
-Look at Seung-li. -Is he interested?
-What? -What was that?
-He can't look her in the eye. -I know.
Is he interested in her?
He keeps looking at her a lot more than at Ji-su.
Nice to meet you.
I wonder what kind of people will come.
THE BEGINNING OF ATTRACTION
Hello.
I've been single for 27 years. My name is Kim Sang-ho.
I went to an all-boys high school, majored in engineering,
and did my military service,
so I've always been surrounded by guys.
I haven't had the opportunity to meet girls.
I go to my local karaoke place every day to sing.
I've often heard I have a nice singing voice.
I'm sorry, but the way he holds the mic really bothers me.
He has it under his pinky somehow.
I also meet up with my friends sometimes.
-And we share a bite. -That hits the spot.
You haven't been seeing anyone lately?
Good question.
Not just lately. I've been single forever.
Yeah? Well, I figured.
It's obvious you're not seeing anyone.
I barely even talk these days.
I haven't talked to any women recently.
Are you sure it's "recently"?
He's been like this his whole life.
Think of our age.
We're 27 now.
If you don't hurry up, you might never get married.
-Have you put on weight? -Right?
-Your stomach's gotten bigger. -Yeah, it has.
You shouldn't eat this stuff.
-You shouldn't be sitting here like this. -Yeah.
But I mean…
Even guys in mostly male groups manage to date.
So I think it's because I haven't made enough of an effort take care of myself.
Is there anything you need my help with?
Lately, I've been trying to learn how to dress…
What kind of clothes do you usually wear?
I wear T-shirts with characters on them.
I wear ones with that rabbit character.
That's an absolute disaster.
Didn't you just meet?
No, hear me out.
I used to wear T-shirts like those too.
I used to dress like that too.
-I weighed around 105kg then. -Right.
The characters on the shirts get stretched out.
-Sang-ho. -Yes?
They get stretched out.
Think of the characters.
Girls will start talking.
"You see that guy with the rabbit shirt? Geez, I feel bad for the rabbit."
You want to make your rabbit that pitiful?
Do you?
This rabbit here. See?
You want to make it pitiful?
Steer clear of character T-shirts.
I'll try my best to be more clean-cut.
Good. You look much better right now.
Now, off you go.
-Okay. -Good luck on losing weight.
-One last sip of beer. -How much more?
Stop.
Hurry and go now.
Don't give in to your cravings on your way back
and wander into an all-you-can-eat buffet.
I won't.
Let's check your body fat percentage.
TRAINER YANG CHI-SEUNG
You're at 103.5kg. You said you lost weight?
I guess I drank a lot of water.
You drank a lot of water?
-Yes. -I see.
So that's why your back's soaking wet.
You'll need a full body workout since you need to lose weight everywhere.
Keep that balanced. Good.
-You can do it. -Right.
-Louder. -I am!
Not alone. I am not alone.
That's it. You have a lot of strength in you.
A little more.
You can do it.
You make it back, and you'll get a girlfriend.
-Right. -This is to get a girlfriend.
You can do it.
This time, I didn't eat any unhealthy delivery food.
I worked hard to get in shape.
I weighed around 106 to 107kg when I applied.
But I lost around 20kg by dieting.
I really did my best this time, so I think I can get a girlfriend.
How much has he changed?
I'm so curious.
I think I'm in my prime right now.
Look how slim he is.
The shape of his face has changed.
-You can see his jawline. -You really can.
I mean… Oh, my!
He's handsome.
He's like a totally different person.
He's so handsome.
KIM SANG-HO HIT THE JACKPOT BY LOSING 20KG
TO YOUR FUTURE GIRLFRIEND
Hi, Princess. It's me, your puppy.
"Your puppy"!
To meet you,
I worked the hardest I ever have in life to get in shape.
Let's meet later on
and be happy.
Let's go.
He needs to be very careful.
After successfully losing weight,
-that confidence is scary. -Right.
-It actually could be… -You know, right?
-You know? -Like irrational confidence?
The guys we've seen so far lacked confidence.
-Right. -He has plenty.
He doesn't hesitate.
That's the annoying part.
-What? -He is definitely confident.
He's changed a lot though.
Someone's coming.
Hello, I've been single for 28 years. My name is Lee Min-hong.
I'm her Cupid.
In seven months,
I went on about 20 to 30 blind dates.
I went on countless group dates too.
But I wanted to meet someone
I could imagine a future with,
so my mom gifted me memberships to matchmaking agencies.
I signed up with two agencies.
Around 99% of the time, I was asked out on a second date.
I don't think there are any problems with my appearance,
but I can be quite blunt.
INTERVIEW WITH PRODUCERS
Pretend there aren't any cameras here and relax.
But there are.
-Yes, but try to ignore them. -Try not to look?
She is honest, but…
I like being extremely efficient.
I don't like wasting time on relationships that won't last.
I also have my own standards.
The way someone walks.
Or sometimes, you see people who hold their chopsticks like this.
If this habit's persisted for over 20 years,
it means they're really stubborn.
They would've been told for years to fix it.
But if they haven't fixed it, it means they're extremely stubborn.
"Don't match me with anyone like that."
That's what I told the agencies.
One time, the guy was talking,
but he moved his eyebrows like 50 times a minute.
"Really? I see."
"Yeah, that's great."
-They were wiggling? -It was a bit…
He could've been just really focused on you.
I don't like it when someone focuses like that.
She doesn't like it.
She's very clear about her dislikes.
You seemed to dislike similar things as I do.
Gosh, you're really sharp. You didn't hesitate.
I'm clear about my dislikes too.
That is true.
She's a funny one.
Even if he's really stubborn,
he can change while in a relationship.
-People don't change easily. -No, they do.
-They don't. -Don't think like that.
You're closing yourself off so much.
Knowing your likes and dislikes is your strength.
But someone who could be potentially interested in you
might get scared off
and give up their feelings for you.
So it's for your benefit.
Right.
I think it would be good to try
and express things in more indirect way.
-I'll do that. -Yes, I think that would be good.
I think it will be good
if I try harder to be more open-minded
and wait to see the strengths in people.
Let's get a boyfriend, Min-hong.
LEE MIN-HONG THE STRAIGHT SHOOTER
I hope someone can melt her frozen heart.
-Someone will. -Yes.
I'm sure of it.
My goodness!
-She has pink hair. -Yeah, pink.
Here comes our Ariana Grande.
-Ariana Grande? -Yes, Ariana Grande.
I'm her Cupid.
Hello, I've been single for 27 years.
My name is Yi Do.
I currently work
at an education company.
I teach Korean geography, world geography,
and integrated social studies to high school students.
Look at how dramatic this is.
I'm the youngest teacher to teach the CSAT at my company.
I actually haven't graduated from college yet.
I'm majoring in geography education at Seoul National University.
I'm juggling both school and work,
so I don't have time for anything else.
When I heard the term "eternal single,"
I knew this was the perfect show for me,
so I wrote my application with extra care.
She was asked to be on EXchange?
They were busy looking for people to cast.
Season 1 was a secret.
You couldn't say such a show existed.
They were very strict about keeping it a secret.
They emailed me an NDA to sign and were telling me all about it.
But what was really deflating was
they said, "The concept of our show is to appear with your ex."
I became so disappointed.
"But I don't have an ex."
Have some water.
Why?
-You're too… -Do I seem really nervous?
You've been talking nonstop.
I usually speak really fast. It's typical of instructors.
Students always watch online lectures at double speed.
So I used my strength
as a fast talker to appeal to them.
I told them I would save them time.
So what I took as a compliment was
students watch other lectures at double speed,
but they watch mine at 0.7 times the normal speed.
They said my lectures were packed. So did I talk too fast?
-Okay. Please have some water. -Okay.
So a Cs climate has lower winter precipitation than a Cw climate?
Guys, what is winter precipitation?
There was a lot of downward erosion.
So what happens next?
It realizes it's come down far enough. So what happens next?
MEETING HER CUPID
-Hello. -Yi Do.
Oh, my God!
-Oh, my God! I'm a huge fan! -Yi Do. Hey, girl.
-Three, four. Totally. -Oh, my God!
Totally.
Oh, my gosh.
Was there a time when you thought, "Is this a sign?"
-He asked me to go jogging with him. -Okay.
I went out and bought a whole new outfit.
"Should I grab his hand? Should I say I like him?"
He has senses too, so he'd know we slightly touched.
-So then… -Eun-ji looks tired.
She can't get a word in.
My friends all agreed.
You're talking so much right now.
But…
I normally talk to my dog.
Right.
Are its ears okay?
I don't normally become drained,
but after talking with Do, I slept like a log that night.
Because you felt drained?
-You had to recuperate? -Yes.
If you just listen to someone
when they are talking,
I'm sure you'll find success.
Really? If I listen carefully…
-Yeah. -They'll like me?
Because it'll be unexpected.
-Have an open mind. -Okay.
I think listening will be the key.
-Okay. -Promise me you'll remember to listen.
-I promise. -It's okay to just listen.
Active listening can be divided
into three parts, which we will learn today.
Active listening is about picking up
the emotions hidden within someone's words.
-That's too hard for me. -It's too hard.
After looking at what a person says and their attitude,
try connecting them with your own.
Now, you've built a bridge with your own story.
I focused really hard on learning how to have a conversation.
Now, when someone does or says something,
I think a bit more about their emotions behind them.
I have more courage now.
YI DO THE FAST-TALKING STAR INSTRUCTOR
Now, let's see how she talks when she meets them.
Okay, this is important.
-It's important, Do. -Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
She's different.
She's changed!
What's your name?
My name is Yi Do.
-Yi Do? -My first name's only one syllable.
-Yes. -She's a bit calmer now.
-She seems different. -Yeah.
I wonder how many more people will come.
Just as you said that, someone else is coming.
Really?
Yes.
He's dressed like a young master.
It reminds me of the drama Reborn Rich.
Hello.
I've been single for 26 years. My name is Ha Jeong-mok.
Whenever my mentees appear,
I seem to clam up for some reason.
-Are you nervous? -Yes, I'm nervous for them.
-Hello. -Hello.
Please sit over here.
INTERVIEW WITH PRODUCERS
His shirt is a little…
-It's kind of see-through. -That's not the only thing.
-Yeah? -It's not even his.
It does strangely feel like he has someone else's clothes on.
Right?
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY?
It was because of my twin brother.
He said this was my only chance to date.
He kept pushing me to do it,
so I diligently filled out my application that evening.
We used to do everything together,
but when he got a girlfriend,
he started spending less time with me.
So I felt quite lonely.
I think ideal types
don't even matter anymore now.
I just have to start dating someone.
I don't have time to be fussy.
Do you believe in waiting before marriage?
Not at all. I'm very open in that regard.
Have you kissed anyone before?
No.
Why would you ask…
Was I too direct?
I'm very open-minded.
You're very witty and funny.
He's charming too.
I know. I don't seem chronically single, right?
I don't get it either.
MEETING HIS CUPID
So what you want to improve is your appearance?
I only wear clothes that my twin brother buys.
This is his shirt as well.
We need to separate you from your brother.
We go to the same college.
That's fine,
but you don't need to share clothes.
When it comes to fashion,
you should have a purpose.
For example, if your purpose is to date,
you should know how to dress yourself
in a way that suits you.
That's what confidence is.
-Hey, Yun-kyeong. -Yes?
He doesn't mind how short it may get.
Let's consider that option as well.
-Just a bit. Like this. -That's my actual hair and makeup team.
Wow, you hooked him up with your own team.
I did.
I'm thinking a modern style with a few accents.
I think a simple necklace would be good too. Like this one.
You have so many great qualities.
-He looks so cool. -Yeah.
-He looks great! -Wow!
So stylish!
Looking good!
He's totally changed.
Jeong-mok looks very cool.
He has that trendy Seongsu-dong vibe.
First and foremost, my goal is
to start my first relationship.
I'm not going to be single anymore.
HA JEONG-MOK STYLISH FROM NOW ON
He's looking good.
Here he comes.
Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
Nice to meet you.
-Hello. -Nice to meet you.
You can sit wherever you like.
Should I sit here?
-Anywhere you like. -Anywhere's fine.
Nice to meet you.
Why would you sit there?
Why are you sitting on the sheep?
-Why there? -Why sit there?
There's plenty of space.
Honestly.
-What's your name? -My name is…
Ha Jeong-mok.
-"Mok," like "tree" in Korean. -Jeong-mok?
Jeong-mok.
Oh, my gosh!
Hello, I've been single for 26 years.
My name is Park Ji-yeon.
Yes, I'm her Cupid.
She's mine.
Her eyes are very charming.
I went to all-girls schools from middle school to college,
so I only have female friends.
I've never been on any kind of blind date.
I don't think I make much of an effort to.
I had this hope that my first relationship would happen naturally,
so I never bothered to date.
And now, I'm 26 years old.
Also, due to personal circumstances,
I think I might have avoided it.
So I…
When I was young,
I didn't grow up with a father figure that most people would consider ideal.
So I'd think…
"I bet that guy's the same. He'll end up the same way."
I always had
that kind of fixed belief in the back of my mind.
So I pushed away anyone who approached me.
Even if they expressed interest in me,
I would doubt their sincerity.
I felt really uncomfortable,
so I think that might be a part of the reason.
Ji-yeon's been hurt before.
I had some counseling with a doctor,
and I had this tendency to blame myself.
I would always think that everything was my fault.
But she gave me a lot of advice,
and it helped me realize
that I've been doing well.
I want to break down the prejudices and stereotypes I have
and show how I'm moving forward.
I'm going in solo, but I'll come out with a partner.
PARK JI-YEON HALF NERVOUS, HALF EXCITED
Let's get you a boyfriend.
She looks brighter now.
-The whole world is watching. -That's right!
-Hello. -Hello.
Please sit wherever you like.
Should we scoot over?
-Okay. -You can sit here.
Thank you.
-Hello. -Hello.
No one's leading the conversation now that they all here.
-Did I make things awkward? -No.
Things were already awkward.
Don't worry.
Do you see this?
Usually, men and women sit next to each other on dating shows.
-But we're clearly separate. -We're being so obvious.
We don't even need to put up the title of the show here.
That's how it feels.
We just got hit with the truth.
The girls are sitting with the girls, and the guys are sitting with the guys.
Usually, in this type of situation,
it's nice to sit next to the person you like at first glance.
-Exactly. -Right.
-That would be so hard for them. -So hard.
Especially for eternal singles, it's hard to muster that courage.
Hello, I've been single for 26 years. My name is Kang Hyun-kyu.
The most popular ones were
cocktails like Peach Crush or Midori Sour.
The ones that were sweet and not too strong were popular.
Does he work as a bartender?
I'm currently studying medicine at Chung-Ang University.
-What? -My goodness.
I didn't see that coming.
-He's a medical student? -Yes, he's a medical student.
I was always busy studying to get into medical school.
I was more focused on getting into
a good high school and college.
But once I got into medical school,
there was so much more to study,
so I had my hands full trying to keep up.
When I'm interested in someone,
my brain stops working and I become awkward.
Conversations don't flow smoothly and abruptly end.
So I often felt I wasn't good at holding conversations.
I want to try my best so I can be in a relationship.
KANG HYUN-KYU ETERNALLY SINGLE PERFECT CHILD
-Hello. -Hello.
Nice to meet you.
You can sit wherever you like.
Everyone's already here.
Is everyone here now?
I think so.
Let's have a round of applause.
JI-SU
SEUNG-LI
YI DO
JEONG-MOK
YEO-MYUNG
SANG-HO
MIN-HONG
HYUN-KYU
JI-YEON
JAE-YUN
-For me, Jae-yun… -Yeah?
He surprised me so much.
-He's changed so much. -I can't stop saying this.
When new people would arrive,
he was the one who asked questions first.
So I already feel proud.
-And it feels like he'll do well. -Right.
I'm a bit worried about Min-hong, Ji-su, and Yeo-myung.
I wonder if they'll do all right.
You don't look pleased, Car, the garden.
-I'm honestly not very confident. -Really?
The weather's become so nice now.
Would you like some coffee?
Because I need some.
THEIR AGES AND PROFESSIONS ARE A SECRET
FIRST IMPRESSION VOTES WILL NOW BEGIN
-Voting after they just met? -Already?
This is so cruel.
-Let's go. -They only just met.
Wait, we're already…
EACH PERSON WILL GO TO THE IGLOO DOME AND CHOOSE ONE PERSON THEY LIKED THE MOST
IGLOO DOME
I'm dying to know who their first picks will be.
HOW TO VOTE
I'm sweating all of a sudden.
My gosh, I feel so hot.
-Ji-su, was your last name Kang? -It's Kang Ji-su.
No! Why would you ask that?
He's saying, "I'm going to pick you."
Was he flirting?
He's telling her that he'll pick her.
-I'll be back. -Bye.
-Bye. -Bye.
Bye.
I wonder who Yeo-myung liked.
I can't tell at all, because she's always smiling.
YEO-MYUNG
First impression?
For first impression…
I pick…
Noh Jae-yun.
Gosh, I can't express how proud I am.
Jae-yun caught my eye.
He was handsome. That was my first impression.
YEO-MYUNG AND JAE-YUN FIRST MEET
Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
MIN-HONG
To be honest, I think I've only liked guys who were the complete opposite of me.
I tend to be a little impatient.
He was frustrating, so I guess I was actually drawn to that.
-Hold on. -A frustrating person?
Then, isn't it Seung-li?
I picked Jae-yun.
-My goodness! -What?
Min-hong picked Jae-yun too?
She and Yeo-myung are already rivals now.
He already has two votes.
I think Jae-yun will get a lot of votes,
so I hope my mentees get a few votes too.
JI-YEON
Our Ji-yeon.
I'm curious to see who she will pick.
For my first impression vote,
I picked Jae-yun.
What? Ji-yeon picked him too?
I think I'm attracted to quiet guys,
and he seemed very quiet.
So I just liked that.
Gosh, look at her eyes.
That's…
-That's real, isn't it? -It's genuine.
You know when you fall for someone at first sight?
Right.
It looks like she hears wedding bells.
-She can't help but look at him. -Yeah, you're right!
Wait. Jae-yun already has three votes.
My goodness, he's so popular.
JAE-YUN, THREE VOTES YEO-MYUNG, MIN-HONG, JI-YEON
Even guys can see
Jae-yun is very attractive and good-looking.
That's why he's a strong contender.
Jae-yun is the best looking guy here,
and the first impression vote is based on looks alone,
so I was a little worried.
-Bye. -Bye.
I'm dying to know about his pick.
Right. Who will he pick?
JAE-YUN
The person who caught my eye at first glance was…
Kang Ji-su.
See?
They'd look so good together.
Yeah, they would.
She was the first female participant I met,
so she left an impression that lasted longer.
Overall,
with her fair skin and big eyes,
I thought she was beautiful.
HYUN-KYU
I picked Ji-su.
The biggest reason she caught my eye was
she was the closest to my ideal type.
She stood out, so that's why I picked her.
SEUNG-LI
She made a strong first impression on me. She was very pretty.
I only had eyes for her.
I picked Ji-su.
Seung-li picked Ji-su too.
Love at first…
Yes, it was love at first sight.
SEUNG-LI AND JI-SU FIRST MEET
-Hello. -Nice to meet you.
-A participant? -Yes.
-I see. -Yes.
Nice to meet you.
He hesitated a bit.
So that's why he was so nervous.
Yeah, and he sighed.
-He can't stop looking at her. -I know.
JI-SU, THREE VOTES JAE-YUN, HYUN-KYU, SEUNG-LI
Ji-su already has three votes.
-They keep glancing at her. -They keep looking.
Who will Ji-su pick?
But if she picks someone else,
Jae-yun will have a tough road ahead.
-It'll be complicated. -But it's early.
-They'll miss each other. -If Ji-su knows how this show works,
she needs to pick Sang-ho.
I believe in you, Ji-su.
Ji-su, this is Netflix.
JI-SU
Honestly, I didn't know who to pick based on first impressions.
They were all so unique in their own way.
But when he first came in,
I thought he was exactly my style.
-Jae-yun? -"Style"?
Jeong-mok?
He was looking stylish today.
So I picked the guy closest to my type.
I picked Sang-ho.
-Oh, my gosh! -Sang-ho!
Oh, my gosh!
-Car, the garden. Hey. -Oh, my gosh!
Car, the garden was the most shocked.
-Ji-su. -Wait.
You get it, Ji-su.
He's the one who was most surprised.
I was so shocked.
What an unexpected twist.
-Ji-su is someone who likes… -It's so unexpected.
guys who are big and dependable.
Sang-ho received his first vote,
and it came from Ji-su, the most popular girl.
She said she liked guys with that teddy bear vibe.
This is getting interesting.
From his appearance,
Sang-ho seemed like he would be very dependable.
I think that was a plus in my eyes.
I'll be back.
SANG-HO
-Wait. Sang-ho. -Sang-ho.
-Pick carefully. -Don't do anything foolish.
I'm warning you.
-"I'm warning you"! -I warned you.
Please don't be foolish.
Let's keep it simple.
Okay. Ji-su's man, Sang-ho. Who will he pick?
Sang-ho, just pick Ji-su.
-Pick her. -Why are you thinking? Hurry and…
What's he thinking… Don't grab the table. Hurry and pick her.
I picked Kim Yeo-myung.
That's another miss.
I can see how he likes girls like Yeo-myung.
She's lovable.
-Bright and sunny. -Now, it's…
When I first saw her and we were all gathered together,
my first impression of her was that she smiled a lot.
And I liked that about her.
Wait a minute. They all like different people.
No one's matched with anyone at all.
This shows just how different people's tastes are
in terms of appearance.
YI DO
Here's our Ariana Grande.
I wonder who Yi Do will pick.
I gave it a lot of thought.
I picked Jeong-mok.
It was probably
because of his looks.
I was already sitting in the lounge,
and Jeong-mok walked in.
He was wearing a denim jacket with denim jeans.
They looked great on him.
He was also handsome.
That was why.
In-guk gave him a great makeover.
When we were styling him,
I noticed he liked wearing matching sets.
So that's why.
She's wearing a matching set too.
It's a two-piece dress.
Welcome back.
How was it?
I don't know.
JEONG-MOK
In terms of looks,
I like someone with kind eyes.
And I like someone with a pretty smile.
I picked Yi Do for my first impression vote.
He picked Yi Do!
Ariana Grande!
That's our first couple.
-It finally happened! -Yeah!
We have at least one couple.
We got one.
Well, I liked her appearance,
and she had a pretty smile, so I picked her.
I'm so nervous.
Did I come back too quickly?
There was nothing much to do.
Right.
-They look good together. -Yeah.
-The first impression votes have ended. -Yes.
And the results are out.
I'm really proud.
Our Jae-yun.
He's practically in a league of his own.
-And Jeong-mok found a match. -Right.
Our Ji-su received three votes too.
She basically took all of them.
Yeo-myung got one too.
Right, but who did Ji-su pick?
Our clueless Sang-ho.
-Come on. -He probably has no idea right now.
He doesn't know Ji-su picked him.
Losing 20kg paid off.
-Seriously. -I know.
-Gosh. -It's such a relief.
Jeong-mok and Yi Do liked each other and made a connection.
-Exactly. -Yeah.
NOH JAE-YUN HA JEONG-MOK
-We're in the same room. -Really?
-There. -I see.
I'm looking forward to it.
Am I on my own?
Min-hong has her own room.
See you in a bit.
I feel a little lonely.
-See you later. -We'll head in!
-The room's so nice! -This is great!
It's much nicer than I thought.
Seriously.
If it's this nice, I won't ever go outside.
The view's nice.
The view is so picturesque.
Yes, it's a nice view.
I like it.
I'm excited to see what will happen in the future.
When you're in lovely surroundings,
the people there seem lovely too.
-The atmosphere sets the mood. -It plays a major part.
"Designate dinner duties and eat freely."
It's in pairs.
Is that what it is?
Or maybe in groups of four?
So two people are cooking?
No, two guys and two girls are cooking, so it's four.
Why aren't they coming over?
-Come over here. -We have the right number of people.
This is why we're single.
-We're so separated. -Come here.
We don't mingle at all.
We're like oil and water.
Aren't you guys a little late?
Sorry.
We went to the bathroom.
Pick up the pace.
Why aren't the two girls coming?
Should we go get them?
-Yi Do and… -Let the guys…
Let's try to mix oil and water.
The two latecomers.
-Yes? -Please go get the girls who aren't here.
-Where would they be? -Okay, we'll go.
The pajamas are so cute!
Why are they so cute?
-How do we… -Left? Right?
How are we supposed to do this?
Is it okay to knock?
I don't think so.
You can knock. Why not?
-It's their room. -Why not?
-Hold on. -I think we should knock from far away.
-How do you… -What on earth is that?
How do you knock from far away?
Even knocking on a door is tough for them.
Right.
Let's take turns.
How do you do this?
I don't wear it much…
Did someone knock?
Yes?
-I think I heard it too. -Should we go out and see?
Yes?
-Who is it? -Oh, my gosh.
-They're backing away. -They're backing away.
They told us to come get you.
Really? Are we really late?
-No. -No.
-Could you give us five minutes? -Sure.
-Take your time. -Okay.
Five minutes.
We should wait, right?
Yeah, let's sit…
-Where? -Here for five minutes.
Where should we sit?
Let's just sit here.
My legs hurt.
Until twelve past.
Why are they waiting like that?
I mean…
Let's lean on this.
This will be more comfortable.
It's a little hard.
What kind of conversation is this?
He said it's a little hard.
Are we watching a sitcom?
It's so cute though. Those awkward comments.
I feel like we're rushing them.
-We're so sorry! -Oh, no.
Take your time.
-We're really sorry. -No, it's fine.
-Take your time. -No, it's okay…
You must have waited a long time.
-Sorry… -We were late too.
-Really? -Yes.
Did you come to get us as punishment?
No, we wanted to come.
-Really? -Yes.
Jeong-mok is good.
Oh, no! We should hurry.
Slowly. You could get hurt.
Please take a seat. Why do you keep…
Come over here.
YEO-MYUNG, JI-YEON, JAE-YUN
THE SEAT IN FRONT OF JAE-YUN IS EMPTY
Sit here.
She moved over?
Ji-yeon!
Well done, Ji-yeon!
-This is how you have to start. -That's right.
Sit here.
There was a bathroom over there.
-Really? -Yeah, it's right outside.
We don't need to go back to our rooms.
JI-YEON, JAE-YUN
When my roommate
went outside and came back in,
I slid over to the next seat
and told her to sit next to me so I could sit in front of him.
It was the bravest thing
I'd ever done in my life.
I wanted to talk with Jae-yun,
but he sat over at the far end,
so I couldn't talk to him at all.
JI-SU, SANG-HO
Ji-su and Sang-ho. Nice.
Sit next to each other. Okay.
It's already 7:30 p.m.
No, it's 7:23 p.m.
Luckily, Sang-ho sat next to me,
so I was in a good mood.
I really wanted to chat with him.
I sat at the end of the table because…
I was hot and wanted to sit by the fan.
That's why I sat there.
There wasn't any special reason. Never mind.
-Honestly. -Timeout?
What on earth…
He sweats a lot.
He's prone to sweating.
-He needs to cool down. -Are you his doctor?
We understand but…
He sweats a lot.
I do as well. We're both prone to sweating.
But this is a dating show. You don't sit there for a fan.
Right, it is a dating show,
so if you're drenched in sweat, that won't look great.
-True. -We'll keep an eye on him.
I didn't expect him to say that though.
-Right. -In his interviews…
I guess he says things like that.
To be honest,
I thought about making a move.
We were on the same team making dinner, so I wanted to try something, but…
I don't know why I couldn't do it.
Seriously, I want to be friendly,
but I can't seem to express it.
I think…
it'd be nice to have more chances to interact.
But I forget. I even forget names.
-So I don't remember MBTI types. -Really?
All of a sudden, we go into town.
We're not allowed to discuss how we feel, right?
Like who we like and stuff?
I actually want to talk about it.
Wait!
You go first.
You first, Ji-yeon!
I'll go first. I like Jae…
-Jae-yun? -Yeah, Jae-yun!
-The one in front of you at dinner? -Yes.
-Really? -Yes.
Do we overlap?
The guy who I thought was cool was…
His name ends in "mok."
Ha Jeong-mok.
Right?
Did you write them all down?
But I'm not fixated on just one person yet.
Really?
Are you totally into him?
Yeah.
-Really? -Yeah.
So,
we were sitting like this.
Come here.
We sat like this.
-Jae-yun sat there. -Right.
He didn't say a word.
I like someone who's quiet…
Really?
-Yes. -But for me, he was too quiet.
I like people like that.
I like someone who's calm and quiet.
I'll help you. How should I help?
-It's a text. -What is it this time?
"'Eternal Singles' Night' will be held here every night."
What is this? Eternal Singles' Night?
Are we sitting around a campfire?
Like at a summer camp?
PLEASE COME TO THE EVENT AREA
Yeah, they need things like this.
You have to constantly make them interact.
-You do. -That's right.
Let's take our time.
Let's go sit after Jae-yun takes his seat.
You're going to look?
Really?
I can see it!
Really? Hold on.
You can see if you step up on this.
There's someone outside right now.
I can't tell who it is.
-A girl or a guy? -A guy.
By himself? Is it Sang-ho?
Hold on.
It's Hyun-kyu.
Hyun-kyu?
Right? Hyun-kyu.
Do you want to go now?
Why? No.
We should go when Jae-yun comes out.
We'll keep watch, and when he appears, we'll go.
-We're meerkats. -We're still okay.
We're like meerkats.
-I'll look. -This is so funny.
Where is it?
I think it's that.
Someone's over there.
Let's see if he's going.
He's here!
Jae-yun's out.
"He's here!"
That's so cute.
-This is how you win hearts. -Exactly.
Yeo-myung, go for it this time.
I already brushed my teeth though.
I'll sit here.
-There you go! -Goodness, well done!
They're all there.
-Are we last again? -Goodness.
Oh, dear.
Goodness.
We looked and went out at the right time,
but we ended up being last again.
I was a step too late.
Yeo-myung was sitting next to him,
and I was already bothered by that.
Inside, I felt pretty good. I knew I picked a good seat.
I now had the chance to get to know him.
ETERNAL SINGLES' NIGHT
That's cute.
TONIGHT, YOU WILL GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER THROUGH CONVERSATION
SHARE WHY YOU ARE SINGLE AND YOUR EXPERIENCES OF BEING REJECTED
Isn't this like a public execution?
Who wants to be sent to the gallows first?
We should pick someone and go clockwise or counterclockwise.
Could you two do rock, paper, scissors?
-Loser goes first? -Yes.
Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.
Okay, so I'm…
-It's okay. -It's okay.
It's fine.
The reason I've been chronically single is…
It's like a confession.
I'm a homebody,
so I rarely go outside.
I don't think I had many opportunities…
to meet women.
I didn't.
But if you did go out, I think you would've been popular.
But…
I can't really say that's the case,
because I've been turned down quite often.
Yes.
Back in high school,
there was an older girl at my church.
I had a crush on her.
One day,
even though I was in high school, I had a drink with my dad.
But the problem was…
I got drunk
and sent her a long text.
I said, "I've liked you since last fall," and things like that.
-That's romantic. -It was really…
It was a really long message.
"Sorry. I like older guys."
That was the reply I got.
But it turned out she already had a boyfriend at the time.
They've all gone quiet!
-It's so funny how solemn they are. -Yeah.
They can all relate.
-Right. -They're in the same boat.
Okay, let's move on.
Why are we clapping?
Do we have to clap for everyone?
-Let's just clap. -Sure.
Next.
Well…
a long time ago,
I asked this girl in my elective class
if she wanted to see a movie together.
But she told me
she would be going abroad the next week.
So I assumed she was going to study abroad.
But then,
I later saw on social media.
She took a three-day trip to Japan.
That was it.
I've taken longer trips than that.
Right.
That's not too bad.
Well, she rejected me in a nice way.
I've had a lot of crushes,
but I've never been rejected because I've asked them out directly.
But this happened once.
He invited me to go running together,
so I assumed he had a crush on me too.
I tried to talk to him as we ran,
but it's impossible to talk while running.
Right.
You can't breathe.
So he said to me,
"Do, when you're running, just run."
He just wanted an exercise partner.
Yes, I think that was it.
I was so sure we were into each other,
but not long after that,
he got a girlfriend.
I spent time alone being sad.
My heart is breaking.
I was the same.
-Really? -We're all the same.
That's happened to me a lot.
Since we're on the subject, what are obvious signs of interest?
Do you have any examples?
"Let's go running together."
Honestly, isn't that totally a sign?
Why would just the two of us go running at Hangang River?
Just the two of you?
-Yes, just the two of us by the river. -Then, that's not cool.
Yi Do made a lasting impression.
She's sociable and bright.
And she has a beautiful smile.
So far,
I think Yi Do is the closest to my ideal type.
As with my first impression vote,
Yi Do is the one I find most attractive.
He said she has a beautiful smile!
-He finds her cute. -Yes, she makes him swoon.
Girls like her need to be with guys like him.
-He would adore her. -They'd make a great couple.
I…
I moved to Brazil when I was young.
I lived there for around 12 years.
I was unfamiliar with the culture and the language,
so it was hard to approach people.
In high school… Or maybe it was middle school?
All the girls were sitting around me.
I was the only boy.
I guess I said something wrong by mistake,
because they all started to yell at me.
They were swearing too.
Ever since then,
I was quite hurt,
so I found it hard to approach women.
Did you say something wrong
because you weren't fluent in Portuguese?
Yes.
There were cultural differences.
But just for that reason?
That's so mean.
It doesn't bother me as much now.
So you lived in Brazil for 12 years?
Yes.
I moved there when I was 8
and returned after graduating from high school.
Your Korean is really good.
Really?
Sometimes, I mix up some of the harder words.
What other languages do you speak?
Just Portuguese, Spanish,
English, and Korean.
Four languages.
Seung-li talked about
his experience growing up in Brazil.
He also talked about when he got hurt.
I found that quite charming.
I thought it was admirable
how he was able to talk about that.
I found his attitude
quite charming as well.
And his gaze…
I think his eyes are so attractive.
I feel shy when I make eye contact.
WHO ARE YOU MOST ATTRACTED TO NOW?
Most attracted to?
My gosh!
At first, it was totally Jeong-mok.
It's a tie for first place.
Jeong-mok and Seung-li.
About that vote we had earlier…
Will that be revealed to everyone?
You mean the results?
-I don't think they'll say who we picked. -Really?
That's what I'm worried about.
Do you regret your decision?
No.
-No, that's not it. -Just kidding.
It's embarrassing.
Seung-li concerned me a bit.
From Yi Do's conversation with him,
it looked like she was interested in him.
I'm a little worried about that.
From first impressions, the person I found charming was
Kang Ji-su.
Now…
I think it's Yeo-myung.
Jae-yun changed his mind too.
-He did. -It's no longer Ji-su?
Why?
You know what people say.
Some people just grow on you.
She smiles so brightly,
and she seems to have a sunny and cheerful personality.
Those traits left a very positive impression on me.
I'd like to go out on a date with Yeo-myung tomorrow.
-Then, these two have matched. -Yes, that's right.
I picked Jae-yun for my first impression vote,
so I wanted to get to know him better
and tried to talk to him.
But he doesn't really say much.
Even when I'd say something to him…
You have to win.
Please win.
How much would you like?
Tell me when.
When.
He'd just give one-word answers.
So I thought, "Is he not interested in me?"
-That's not it. -No!
Yeo-myung!
So…
She took a three-day trip to Japan.
I became interested in Jeong-mok,
because he's pretty funny when he talks.
So I kept being drawn to him.
Right now, I'm most attracted to…
Jeong-mok.
Things changed so much in one day.
What do I do about this?
Do I have to compete?
What? You like Yi Do too?
-It's a competition. -You're not at my level.
You don't think of me as competition, do you?
I think I can win him over.
Or I'll take him away.
I felt like such a loser yesterday.
-So I need advice… -I'm a bigger fricking loser.
I want to get married.
If I have a daughter,
I'd hope she grows to be like you.
How would you feel if I was your girlfriend?
There's no going back.
If you're going to criticize me about this, go ahead.
I won't care. It's none of your business.
