In the TV CHOSUN extreme realism documentary entertainment 'Lovers of Joseon', Choi Seong-guk, Hwang Bo-ra, Son Bo-seung, and Kim Seung-hyun's 'Lovers of the 2nd generation' held the 1st regular meeting of 'Joseon's Lovers'. Also, Kim Hak-rae and Lim Mi-sook's handsome son Kim Dong-young made a surprise visit to his parents' store with his matchmaking partner, Yeo-eun, and had a good time. The viewership rating in the metropolitan area that day was 3.5%, with a peak rating of 3.9% (Nielsen Korea, based on the metropolitan area), securing the top spot among general programming channels. In the broadcast of 'Lovers of Joseon' aired on June 30, a variety of 'Lovers of the 2nd generation' gathered, taking an hour just to meet due to the children's diaper situation. Choi Seong-guk's son Si-yoon, Hwang Bo-ra's son Woo-in, Lee Kyung-sil's grandson and Son Bo-seung's son Lee Hoon, and the only girl Kim Seung-hyun's daughter Lee-yoon all attended the 1st regular meeting of 'Joseon's Lovers'. The oldest brother Lee Hoon played around using '20s dad' Son Bo-seung as a playground equipment, while '50s dad' Choi Seong-guk tried his best with his son Si-yoon but was ultimately overwhelmed by youthful energy. Choi Seong-guk, despite saying, 'Si-yoon still doesn't know that world', asked Son Bo-seung to give him a piggyback ride. Showing a stable riding experience, Son Bo-seung received the compliment from Choi Seong-guk, who confessed, 'I was a bit envious.' Next, Hwang Bo-ra was also seen playing with active 'camera lover' Woo-in, though her knees got scraped. Hwang Bo-ra expressed her dissatisfaction, saying, 'Woo-in's dad doesn't buy me (knee protectors). He only knows how to do private education... I never have a day without aching legs.' After playtime, there was a moment to share their parenting struggles during mealtimes. Choi Seong-guk warmly remarked to Kim Ji-min, 'You should join this gathering next year.'
Meanwhile, a story about Kim Hak-rae and Lim Mi-sook's 34-year-old handsome son Kim Dong-young and his match from 'the securities world' a month after their meeting was shared. Lim Mi-sook noted, 'People around us say that my son Dong-young, who is like a gentle stone+child, is very cute.' Adding that she liked her match Yeo-eun, Lim Mi-sook humorously said, 'The in-laws need to do well. They should give money, give me a gold bar, and give everything.' To this, Kim Hak-rae responded, 'Just give away the store too,' adding humor to the conversation.
However, just then, son Kim Dong-young appeared wearing a snake-patterned T-shirt and dropped a bombshell that 'today's meeting could be the last.' He asked, '(Yeo-eun) said the word 'certainty.' How did you give mom certainty?' To which, Lim Mi-sook replied, 'Dad was not my ideal type. But when I said I didn't like men who smoke, he quit immediately. That's how he gave me certainty.' She humorously added, 'In today's terms, I'm saving a man who's almost in his 50s.' As the appointment time with matchmaking partner Yeo-eun approached, Kim Dong-young left the spot. The production team, considering Kim Dong-young's date, discreetly peeked at the atmosphere between the two. Waiting anxiously for their son's dating updates, Kim Hak-rae and his wife were informed by the production team, 'Dong-young told Yeo-eun, 'Yeo-eun is so pretty.' This real-time intel made Kim Hak-rae nod in agreement, saying, 'That's a great vibe.' Later, Kim Dong-young and Yeo-eun made a surprise appearance at Kim Hak-rae and his wife's store, shocking everyone. The couple's overly enthusiastic reception was warm, but as they provided excessive treatment, resembling someone who had indulged in 'kimchi soup', Choi Seong-guk expressed his growing anxiety, stating, 'I'm gradually getting worried.' Hwang Bo-ra also shook her head, saying, 'Why did Yeo-eun go there?' While Yeo-eun was away, Kim Hak-rae and his wife packed food for their prospective daughter-in-law. Meanwhile, Lim Mi-sook excitedly suggested, 'Let's move to Yeouido, where (Yeo-eun's home) is. It's not good if they are too far apart.'
When Yeo-eun returned to her seat, the exciting meal began in earnest. Lim Mi-sook, feeling pleased with Yeo-eun's considerate actions, stated, 'This person (Kim Hak-rae) has the property in my name, so don't worry about it. I'll give everything to Yeo-eun.' Acting as if she would even adjust the wedding venue, Lim Mi-sook handed over her diamond ring to emphasize her point. After the conversation that fluctuated between pressure and light-heartedness concluded, Lim Mi-sook watched Yeo-eun and her son Kim Dong-young leave, feeling emotional as she said, 'I'm about to cry… I'm so happy.' The show airs every Monday at 10 p.m.
