[Sports Chosun Reporter Jo Yoon-sun] In episode 22 of ‘I am SOLO (I am single)’ special for singles aired on the 18th (Wednesday), a ‘1st pick war’ erupted following the ‘2nd date’.
On the real dating program ‘I am SOLO’ of ENA and SBS Plus aired on the 18th, after the ‘2nd date’, the love line of ‘Solo Street No. 22’ was revealed to be in great chaos.
On this day, Yeong-suk laughed brightly while going on a ‘2nd date’ with Sang-cheol, saying, “I never thought we would meet like this.” Sang-cheol mentioned, “I had to be a little cautious of Yeong-soo’s feelings.” He hinted that he found it difficult to approach Yeong-suk due to Yeong-soo, who had been straightforward with her. Yeong-suk, shaking her head, explained that she couldn’t get closer to Yeong-soo due to religious differences. Relieved Sang-cheol confessed, “I also considered choosing Jeong-hee because Yeong-suk is so popular.” Amid a harmonious atmosphere, the two enjoyed confirming their common points such as MBTI and leisure preferences. After the date, Sang-cheol said in an interview with the production crew, “The date was fun,” while Yeong-suk expressed her uneasiness, saying, “It was comfortable, but I felt excessively calm compared to what I had expected.”
Yeong-ja started a ‘2:1 date’ with Yeong-chul and Gwang-soo, but Yeong-chul made things uncomfortable by showing an ‘authoritative’ attitude, making Yeong-ja and Gwang-soo uncomfortable. Even during the meal, Yeong-chul showed little response to Yeong-ja’s questions, focusing only on the food. Eventually, Yeong-ja urged Yeong-chul, “You earn money well, you have a nice body and a handsome face, everything is good, but please cheer up!” Yeong-chul replied, “(If it’s on ‘Solo Street’) I will fight.” In a situation that turned into a ‘Yeong-chul counseling center’ instead of a ‘2:1 date,’ Gwang-soo confessed in an interview with the production crew, “The date was a bit uncomfortable,” while Yeong-chul expressed satisfaction, saying, “(Yeong-ja) has risen from 2nd place to close to 1st place.” However, Yeong-ja shocked them by revealing, “Yeong-chul went back to his room and told Yeong-soo (his 1st pick) to ‘cheer up’.” After the ‘2:1 date,’ Yeong-chul went on, Yeong-su and Yeong-ho, accompanied by Sun-ja, showed a video of their eldest son’s piano performance. Yeong-su praised, “You taught him really well,” while Yeong-ho remained silent. During the meal, Sun-ja mentioned that Yeong-ho’s 1st pick was Ok-sun, saying, “It hurts a bit,” appealing to the fact that Yeong-ho is concerned about ‘dating with step-children.’ Keeping this in mind, Yeong-su pointed out, “Even now, saying they don’t want to meet someone is already building a wall.” After the date, Yeong-su said, “I thought of him as a great person as a colleague or a parent rather than as a potential romantic interest,” while Yeong-ho said, “Seeing the photos of the two sons made it seem like (the emotional barrier) was getting higher.”
