In the second season of "Pursuing Old Encounters," the "Lee Gi-chan Universe" will be created.
The first broadcast of "Pursuing Old Encounters" (hereafter referred to as "POE") will air on KBS Joy, KBS2, and GTV at 9:50 p.m. on the 16th, featuring the first meeting and self-introductions of the season 2 participants. The strange connections among the eight participants are expected to capture the viewers' attention.
Lee Gi-chan, who debuted in 1996, will appear in a dating reality show after about 23 years. It is also revealed that all the female participants in season 2 have connections with Lee Gi-chan, adding to the intrigue.
Singer WAX has been a close friend of Lee Gi-chan for 25 years, and they revealed that they are "like siblings beyond just friends," drawing attention. Comedian Shin Bong-sun recalls their experience of hosting a documentary review talk show together in YouTube content, while actress Park Eun-hye explains that they developed their relationship casually through acquaintances. Moreover, actress Kang Se-jeong surprises viewers by mentioning that she appeared in a music video of Lee Gi-chan in the past.
There is growing interest in whether Lee Gi-chan, who unexpectedly formed the "Lee Gi-chan Universe," can blossom new excitement and romance in familiar relationships.
Unexpected common interests are also discovered among the participants. A male participant reveals that he is a veteran enjoying scuba diving and even runs a related business. Consequently, several female participants state that they have experienced scuba diving and some have even obtained the open water certification, which is a beginner diver's certificate, drawing the male participant's attention.
As the atmosphere remains light thanks to scuba diving, jokes about it feeling like a scuba diving club are exchanged. Attention is being focused on what kind of chemistry such unexpected commonalities will create in the main broadcast.
The production team of "POE" stated, "Although the meetings start from people who already know each other, that is precisely why a more genuine romance will unfold," and they expressed their expectation for new stories that the participants' unexpected common points and chemistry will create.
