In 'Lovers of Joseon,' opinions were sharply divided over Kim Dong-young's direct speaking style.
In the episode of TV Chosun's 'Lovers of Joseon' broadcast on the 12th, Kim Dong-young's dating conversation style, which unveiled his straightforward personality, sparked debate among the panelists.
The scene depicted the second blind date between Kim Dong-young, son of Kim Hak-rye and Lim Mi-sook, and comedian and singer Kim Na-hee. In the early stages, when Kim Na-hee spoke about her ideal type, saying, "I prefer someone with a sense of humor," Kim Dong-young expressed his strong interest, saying, "I'm really nervous right now. You look really pretty," raising the atmosphere.
However, during a conversation about food preferences, differing reactions led to a temporary silence, and Kim Dong-young suddenly turned the mood around, saying, "Isn't it better to say things clearly on a blind date?"
He explained his own dating style by saying, "I think there won't be any further meetings from today," which surprised Kang Soo-jin, who remarked, "I wonder if this is lacking in manners," while Choi Sung-guk expressed concern, saying, "The marriage project won't be easy." In contrast, Hwang Bo-ra commented, "It's rather refreshing and certain, so it's good. His personality is really nice," demonstrating a sharply divided response.
Kim Dong-young continued to express his feelings for Kim Na-hee directly, continuing with blunt remarks. He brought up his experience of having met "ordinary people" and asked, "What time can we meet, Na-hee?" showing his enthusiasm for future meetings. He even mentioned the food that Kim Na-hee said she liked, hot pot, and asked, "Shall I give it a try?" continuing his straightforward approach.
The panelists watching this expressed their surprise, saying, "Dong-young is something else," and "I've never seen this style before," while some noted, "Such direct expressions might actually work," positively evaluating his blunt charm.
