The Soda siblings, So-eul and Da-eul, are enjoying a double date in Korea.
In the 34th episode of ENA's Sunday variety show ‘My Child's Private Life’ (hereafter ‘My Life’), airing at 7:50 PM on the 17th, the recent activities of the beloved ‘Soda Siblings’ So-eul and Da-eul, who are making a long-awaited return to the show, will be revealed. The sight of the children, who have grown up enough to go on a double date with their respective romantic partners, will delight viewers.
On this day, So-eul returns to Korea with her younger boyfriend, Rio, who is a year younger and from the UK, whom she met in Bali. The two meet Da-eul, who has already been in Korea, and enjoy a full course of K-food together, from gamjatang (potato soup) to fried rice, sharing stories about their relationships. During this gathering, Da-eul also reveals that he has a girlfriend, surprising everyone. Watching this unfold in the studio, their mother Lee Yoon-jin comments, “I’m the only one not here,” eliciting laughter.
Afterward, Da-eul's girlfriend joins them, and the double date officially begins for the four of them. The kids visit a folk village, which has become a hot spot among the MZ generation, and spend a refreshing day together. Unlike the somewhat awkward couple of Da-eul and his girlfriend, So-eul and Rio, who are in their second year of dating, attract attention with their affectionate couple mode. Lee Yoon-jin expresses her philosophy on her children's romantic relationships, stating, “I don’t oppose healthy dating in their teens,” adding, “In fact, being open and having parents know seems to provide stability for the kids.”
After the double date, the Soda siblings return to their accommodation and enjoy a late-night snack together. At this time, Da-eul rolls up his sleeves to cook for his sister So-eul, saying he has always wanted to make a certain dish for her. Curiosity is piqued about what menu Da-eul has prepared and what special meaning it might hold.
During the late-night snack, the Soda siblings share their feelings about reuniting after 471 days, about a year and a half, and express their honest thoughts during the time they were apart. It is said that the children's heartfelt words, which could not be heard anywhere else, brought tears to their mother Lee Yoon-jin, adding to the intrigue.
Meanwhile, the recent updates and candid stories of the grown-up Soda siblings can be checked today (17th) at 7:50 PM on ENA’s My Child's Private Life.
