In the 28th episode of 'I'm SOLO,' Jeong-hee mentioned Defconn as her ideal type.
In the episode aired on the 3rd, the reality dating program 'I'm SOLO' (hereafter 'I'm SOLO') organized as a 'divorcees special' featured 28th season Jeong-hee.
That day, the seventh contestant appeared, introduced as 'Jeong-hee.' The MCs revealed their joy by saying, "It's a name we haven't heard in a while."
Above all, Jeong-hee noted that it wasn't easy to make it to 'I'm SOLO,' stating, "I cleared my entire treatment schedule. I'm a dentist," revealing her profession and surprising everyone.
Jeong-hee expressed her desire to visit 'Solo Land' frequently, saying, "At first, I couldn't participate due to scheduling conflicts, which was very disappointing. I hoped they would call me next time, not knowing how the filming situation would turn out," mentioning she frequently communicated with the 'I'm SOLO' writers.
As a result, Jeong-hee revealed, "It was confirmed the day before filming. They contacted me again, and I exclaimed, 'Wow, that's great!'" showing her joy. With Jeong-hee's sudden participation, the original 6:6 format for the divorcees special changed to a 7:7 setup. Jeong-hee stated, "I want to meet someone I can genuinely like, enough to want to get married again."
In an interview with the production team, Jeong-hee recollected her relationship with her ex-husband, saying, "I got a job at my husband's hospital. I had no experience in social work, so I got hired right after finishing my internship. When the head doctor confessed to me, I thought it was either resign or start dating. We ended up dating and got married after some indecisiveness."
She continued, "There was a significant age gap of 10 years. He was always focused on work and preferred discussing work issues at the workplace and home, rather than personal topics. I think that led to a lot of loneliness." She mentioned that she is now living with her 8-year-old daughter after their divorce five years ago.
She added, "I felt that if my mother is happy, then my child will also be happy, which allowed me to decisively make the decision to get divorced."
Most notably, Jeong-hee drew attention by mentioning Defconn as her ideal type. She said, "To reach that level, one must have excellent situational judgment, high IQ and EQ, empathy, and a good sense of humor to create something fun." Hearing this, Defconn remarked, "That's true. I can only be grateful. It's thanks to all of you," playfully responding.
When asked about her preferred profession, Jeong-hee replied, "I don't have a preferred profession, but I do have a non-preferred one. Since I'm very logical (T), I think an overly emotional job wouldn't suit me. I find it hard to accept the emotions of those who are emotional (F)."
Meanwhile, the first impression voting began with the men's selections. The men chose by handing over gold rings, resulting in Jeong-suk and Ok-sun receiving 2 votes each, while Sun-ja, Hyun-sook, and Jeong-hee got 1 vote each. In contrast, Yeong-ja and Yeong-sook did not receive any votes and thus did not receive gold rings.
