Today, on the 10th (Wed), the fourth episode of the variety show produced jointly by tvN STORY and T-cast E Channel, 'My Child's Dating', airs, and it will broadcast the psychological changes of the 'my child' participants as a significant variable — the sudden revelation of ages — causes a major shift just as romantic interest has been forming through previous date missions and honest-vote polls, drawing attention to how events will unfold. 'My Child's Dating' is a dating show that captures parents' feelings as they watch their children date and the stories of children growing through relationships, offering completely new fun compared with existing dating shows and receiving explosive reactions from viewers. After the third episode aired, in the non-drama TV-OTT search responses for the fourth week of Aug. announced by Good Data Fundex, 'My Child's Dating' ranked second following 'I am SOLO', and in non-drama search issue keywords, the cast of 'My Child's Dating' placed fourth, continuing to attract heated interest.
In a pre-released video on the afternoon of the 8th, the triangle among Lee Shin-hyang - Lee Tak-su – Jeon Su-wan draws attention. Left alone in the room and wondering about Lee Tak-su's change-date partner, Lee Shin-hyang, and the sight of Lee Tak-su and Jeon Su-wan spending time in the living room are revealed, creating tension. Through the honest-vote polls and first-come-first-served dates, the Lee Shin-hyang – Lee Tak-su love line seemed to solidify, but a reversal unfolded due to the change date. Soon after, Lee Shin-hyang heads to the living room and discovers the two; seeing them getting along, she cannot bring herself to acknowledge them and paces around, eliciting sympathetic reactions from the studio parents. Spotting Lee Shin-hyang lingering nearby, Jeon Su-wan first notices her, and Lee Tak-su, realizing her presence, becomes flustered and, seemingly parched, performs a one-shot of plain bottled water, sending the studio into laughter. In response, actor Lee Jong-hyuk encouragingly tells his son Lee Tak-su, "Hey! It's okay!" while Lee Shin-hyang's father, Lee Cheol-min, reacts, "It feels like something got revealed," producing contrasting reactions and heightening anticipation for episode four.
Also, the 'my child' participants who previously only knew each other's names will reveal their ages and occupations in episode 4. In the released preview for episode 4, after the ages are revealed, cast members' reactions range from shock to satisfaction and stand out. In particular, Lee Tak-su's reaction of clutching his head as if shocked by Lee Shin-hyang's age reveal and Jeon Su-wan's enigmatic smile, followed by Lee Jong-hyuk's reaction, "It feels like emotions are mixed," pique curiosity. Meanwhile, in response to Lee Seong-jun's remark, "I think I need to talk to several people to be sure," Kim Sa-yoon is shown saying, "A first impression is just a first impression," stirring interest. Soon after, Kim Sa-yoon is seen sighing deeply as she holds the honest-vote cassette tape, appearing to be in deep thought, and Ahn Seon-jun shows what seems like a straightforward approach, saying, "There is only one person who comes to mind," generating intrigue. The studio parents and host Kim Seong-ju watch the 'my child' participants who have fallen into this confusion with tearful reactions, focusing attention on episode 4 airing today.
The fresh charm of the 'my child' participants and the parents' zero-objectivity reactions add fun to the high-tension, immersive dating show 'My Child's Dating'; episode 4 airs today, on the 10th (Wed) at 8 p.m. on tvN STORY and E Channel.
