Seongwoo and Jiwoo had a meeting with their parents.
On the afternoon of the 28th, the MBN entertainment program ‘Dolsingguls7’ depicted a day in the life of Seongwoo and Jiwoo, who were on their second day of living together.
In the broadcast, Seongwoo, who woke up first at 8 AM, started cooking for Jiwoo, who had to go to work. Jiwoo, awakened by the sounds from the kitchen, hugged Seongwoo from behind and asked, “What are you doing, Seongwoo? When did you wake up?”
When Seongwoo made seaweed soup, Jiwoo expressed her gratitude, saying, “I said I wanted to eat it after the soybean paste stew, and I was amazed at how thoughtful he is. I was really thankful.” After tasting the seaweed soup, Jiwoo exclaimed, “It’s delicious! Receiving a seaweed soup breakfast... this is a successful life,” and admired it.
She then worried, saying, “If I live with Seongwoo, I’ll gain 1 kg every day.” After breakfast, Jiwoo said, “Thank you for the meal. Leave it and go. Seongwoo~ I ate well. Thank you,” and hugged Seongwoo once more.
Afterward, Seongwoo personally drove Jiwoo to her company. Upon arrival, Jiwoo, seemingly familiar, leaned in for a kiss before getting out, but after noticing the camera, she smiled awkwardly. Lee Hye-young, who was watching the VCR, said, “They’ve done this before!” and looked at them with satisfaction, while Seongwoo and Jiwoo shared a kiss. Lee Ji-hye smiled, saying, “This is nothing.”
Seongwoo also made banquet noodles for Jiwoo after she got off work. After the meal, the two took a marriage attitude test. When the checklist asked if they could share their phone passwords, Seongwoo answered positively, while Jiwoo said negatively. Seongwoo understood Jiwoo, saying, “I can share because I have nothing to hide. It’s about whether the other person wants to open up or not.”
Jiwoo emphasized her need for personal space, saying, “The only passwords I can share are the home password and the Netflix password. And the YouTube algorithm is off-limits. I just don’t want to worry about it. It’s like a diary.”
They both agreed that they didn’t necessarily need to have a wedding. Seongwoo suggested, “Instead of a wedding, let’s have a party with friends. I just want to take wedding photos. That’s all we need. An officiant and a wedding song.” Jiwoo responded, “The doll brother said he would sing the wedding song,” and added, “He asked me to write down who I want as the officiant. Should I write ‘Yoo Se-yoon♡’?” showing that they had already decided on the wedding song and officiant.
Yoo Se-yoon, who was watching the VCR, smiled happily, saying, “Oh, thank you.”
On another day, Jiwoo had a meal with Seongwoo's mother. Contrary to Seongwoo's worries, his mother warmly welcomed Jiwoo, saying, “Don’t be too nervous,” while observing Jiwoo closely. Jiwoo introduced herself, saying, “I’m Han Jiwoo. Yes, that’s right,” showing signs of nervousness.
When Seongwoo's mother asked what Jiwoo liked about her son, Jiwoo replied, “First of all, he has a great impression, and when we talk, he is very serious and assertive when needed, making me feel comfortable like an old friend, and we communicate well.” The mother noted, “Seongwoo’s face has brightened a lot. His expression when he sees his mother is very different, isn’t it?” pointing out the changes in her son.
Seongwoo's mother sent a good signal, saying, “I met you for the first time today, and I’m speaking informally... but why is it so comfortable?”
Later, the mother asked Jiwoo, “But did you think Seongwoo was too good? You’re not saying anything bad?” and expressed her concerns, saying, “Seongwoo is not the type to be disliked by adults, but when it comes to financial matters, he’s still struggling.”
In response, Jiwoo reassured Seongwoo's mother, saying, “We’re living for the fun of saving little by little. My mom used to say that it’s a privilege of youth to enjoy changing things one by one while managing a small household,” and praised Seongwoo, saying, “I think Seongwoo is deep in thought, so my dad will trust him a lot.”
While Jiwoo was away on the phone, Seongwoo's mother told him, “This is what I wanted... so much. Jiwoo speaks well and talks positively about you,” expressing her fondness for Jiwoo. Seongwoo also felt relieved, saying, “I’m glad my mom likes her.”
After parting with his mother, Seongwoo couldn’t hold back his tears in the car. He said, “I guess I had some pent-up feelings. I didn’t know... I’ve always felt sorry, but seeing someone I really like makes me grateful, and all the moments just flash by, so I think I cried,” explaining the reason for his tears.
The second couple is Donggeon and Myeongeun. Donggeon invited Myeongeun to a futsal field to show her his soccer skills. The coach said, “Donggeon isn’t really good at soccer, but he cheers from the back. I don’t know how it will go in the future, but he’s a good friend, so I’ll support him.”
Donggeon said, “It feels strange to be here together,” and went back into the game for the second half. After scoring a goal, he pretended to shoot a love arrow at Myeongeun as a celebration, which made the panel exclaim, “Oh! I want to stop that.” However, Donggeon continued his celebration, and Lee Ji-hye said, “It’s cute because he keeps doing it,” falling for Donggeon’s charm.
Yoo Se-yoon expressed concern, saying, “Myeongeun doesn’t seem to like events much. She seems to feel burdened.”
After the game, Myeongeun had a meal with Donggeon’s soccer team. The coach asked, “What do you like about Donggeon?” and Myeongeun replied, “He’s very affectionate. He cooked for people for 5 days and 6 nights. I like to joke around too, so I thought our personalities were similar.”
Donggeon bluntly said, “Myeongeun is pretty,” which made the director comment, “Donggeon is the type that needs to have looks.”
Later, the director and coach praised Donggeon, saying, “Donggeon is very popular. He’s in his early thirties and has saved 100 million won. He wants to try things without buying a car, so I thought he’s different. His character is worth supporting.”
The coach added, “I think there’s some mutual feeling between them,” to which Donggeon jokingly said, “Please take Myeongeun and ask her.” When Myeongeun briefly left, Donggeon shared his concerns, saying, “It’s a bit difficult. I spent almost a week in Australia, and we didn’t talk much. The foundation isn’t built yet, so I’m trying to talk a lot now. But as I try to do something sincerely, I become cautious and anxious about my actions. I wonder if this is okay or that is okay.”
He added, “But I also think, what kind of impression am I giving to this person?” The coach advised, “Share your daily life naturally, and if she likes you, it can lead to marriage. Don’t try to hide too much.”
Later, the two went on a date at a screen golf place prepared by Myeongeun. Donggeon expressed his satisfaction, saying, “It feels strange to be with someone I like. It’s amazing to be at the golf course, is this how we play together?”
Donggeon asked, “We’ve met twice, right? What do you think? Just be honest,” curious about Myeongeun’s true feelings. Myeongeun honestly confessed, “I feel that you’re a very good person who respects boundaries. But I’m not sure about the romantic aspect.” Lee Ji-hye lamented, “Isn’t this confusing?”
Myeongeun said, “Usually, when guys feel it, they go for it. But I find it hard to do that. I still don’t know about that.” MC Lee Da-eun remarked, “This is a rejection,” while Yoo Se-yoon said, “If I heard that, I wouldn’t approach her more,” commenting on Myeongeun’s directness.
Donggeon asked, “I think we’re heading towards a destination. What kind of person do you think I am?” seeming anxious. Myeongeun hesitated before answering, “I know you’re trying hard, but it’s also burdensome for me. Honestly, my feelings are still in the early stages.”
When Donggeon asked, “If I was at zero in Australia, what about now that I’m in Korea?” Myeongeun replied, “You’re trying to make it easy. You’re trying to take it easy. You’re really funny,” surprising the MCs. Lee Da-eun said, “I think it’s over,” and Lee Ji-hye commented, “If I were Donggeon’s sister, I’d say, ‘Donggeon, just come over.’ It’s frustrating.”
As Myeongeun continued to evade answers, Donggeon firmly stated, “If you say, ‘I tend to take a long time to get to know someone,’ honestly, I’d filter that out.” The MCs were surprised by Donggeon’s attitude, saying, “This means it’s over.”
Donggeon continued, “I think it’s better to quickly uproot things. Time is more precious than in my twenties. If I meet someone like that, it’s better for my mental health to quickly meet someone else,” he said strongly. Myeongeun revealed, “In the current situation, I think I said, ‘I’m the type that can’t easily open my heart.’ I think Donggeon might have a change of heart.”
