MBN 'Love after Divorce7''s Seong-woo♥Ji-woo confirmed their steadfast love for each other in the "final choice" and achieved a happy ending.
On the May 5 broadcast of MBN's Love after Divorce7 final episode, viewers were drawn in when the results of the couples' "final choices" were revealed along with the final after-stories of Seong-woo X Ji-woo and Dong-gun X Myung-eun, who became the final couples at the Australian "Love after Divorce house." Seong-woo X Ji-woo chose each other in the final choice without any surprise, while Dong-gun X Myung-eun ended their meeting with regret after showing divergent paths in the final choice.
That day Dong-gun and Myung-eun had a one-night, two-day date at a glamping site overlooking the West Sea. Dong-gun, who prepared the camping date that was on Myung-eun's bucket list, surprised her with food as if he had moved an entire kitchen. After arriving at the lodging, the two changed into "ilbaji" and went to experience the mudflats. While catching crabs to lift their spirits, they enjoyed themselves like children as they picked vegetables in the garden.
When the sun set, Dong-gun cooked camping dishes such as barbecue. But despite his meticulous preparation, the slow cooking darkened hungry Myung-eun's expression. After a long wait they ate dinner and talked in a romantic atmosphere. During that time, Dong-gun handed Myung-eun a surprise photo album capturing memories from Australia. Myung-eun burst into tears, and Dong-gun even played a preprepared video letter to cement his intentions.
However, the five studio MCs Lee Hye-young, Yoo Se-yoon, Lee Ji-hye, Eun Ji-won and Lee Da-eun all shouted "No!" in unison, bringing a wry laugh. In the video letter, Dong-gun confessed to Myung-eun, "I really like you a lot." Myung-eun responded with tears, saying, "I'm truly grateful," but in an interview with the production team she revealed, "I cried because I had complicated feelings," leaving viewers curious about her true feelings.
Meanwhile, Seong-woo, who moved into Ji-woo's house to "cohabit," met Ji-woo's friends for the first time that day. Ji-woo introduced two friends who were both "former colleagues" and "close friends," and Ji-woo's friends, while saying, "We're glad Ji-woo looks happy," pressed them with sharp questions in an "intense interview." They asked, "With Ji-woo's business trips and heavy workload, how do you plan to coordinate that?" Seong-woo gave an exemplary answer, saying, "I think it's important to build trust by being honest about everything." While Seong-woo briefly stepped away, Ji-woo's close friends praised him, saying, "He seems like such a good person," and "He makes Ji-woo feel at ease," which brought Ji-woo to tears, and her friends comforted her, intensifying the emotion.
After parting with her friends and returning home, the two called Ji-woo's mother to make their first greetings. Ji-woo's mother warmly told Seong-woo, "Thank you for treating our Ji-woo kindly. I hope you both fit together nicely." After the heartwarming call, the two had a deeper conversation on their last night of cohabitation. Ji-woo opened up about her concerns with the thought of having a second child, saying, "If a new family is formed, should I move to a family-friendly company?"
Seong-woo replied with consideration, "That can't happen. Ji-woo is happy with the work she is doing now; if she gives it up because of a child, her original goal would disappear." The five MCs watching said, "Are there men like that? His thoughtfulness is amazing!" in admiration. Afterwards, Seong-woo X Ji-woo agreed with the conclusion, "Let's think about it if a child is born," and even promised to remarry, bringing warm smiles from the five MCs.
Finally, the scenes of the two couples' final choices were revealed. The night before had become a "sea of tears" for Dong-gun X Myung-eun, who promised "Let's not cry anymore" and turned their backs to each other as they entered the final choice. In an atmosphere full of tension and trembling, Dong-gun turned first and chose Myung-eun, but Myung-eun left her seat. Immediately after, in an interview with the production team, Myung-eun explained her reason for giving up the final choice, saying, "When I chose Dong-gun in Australia I had a lot of curiosity and wanted to get to know him, but after meeting him in Korea it felt closer to comfort than excitement."
She then sent Dong-gun a tearful message saying, "Thank you for giving me good memories." Seong-woo X Ji-woo chose each other in the final choice without disagreement. Once they faced each other again, the two embraced and kissed, decorating a happy ending. Seong-woo said, "I will do my best so there will be good news in the future," a remark that made the five MCs proud.
In particular, the two announced they are a "hyun-couple" (real-life couple) who continue to meet after the broadcast, earning everyone's applause. Eun Ji-won joked, "It really looks like they'll remarry, so Yoo Se-yoon should emcee the wedding," turning the set into a sea of laughter. Yoo Se-yoon said, "Of course I will," and offered sincere support, "They should go back to Australia's Gold Coast for their honeymoon.~" With the romance journey in Australia concluded, the five MCs warmly closed Love after Divorce7 with their final farewell, "See you again in our season 8.~"
