Will actor Lee Jong-won and comedian Kim Dae-hee really become in-laws?
The final episode of the variety show "My Child's Love," co-produced by tvN STORY and T-cast E Channel and airing on the 8th (Wed), is expected to reveal the last dates of the "my children" who must choose and the final choices that will put an end to the entangled love lines.
"My Child's Love" is a dating reality show that captures parents' feelings as they observe their children dating and the stories of children growing through relationships, offering completely new entertainment compared with existing dating show formats and receiving explosive responses from viewers. It ranked in the top 10 of the non-drama TV-OTT search responses in the fourth week of September on Good Data Fundex, continuing steady interest and buzz.
In the eighth and final episode, the daughters will directly choose their partners and courses for the last date mission. The pre-release clip of episode 8 includes a date scene of Kim Sa-yoon and Lee Seong-jun, who already give off the vibe of an official couple, inducing vicarious excitement. The two enjoying a date where they make perfumes for each other at the perfume workshop chosen by Kim Sa-yoon exude a sweetness as if peeking at an actual couple's date scene.
Lee Seong-jun gives the perfume he made for Kim Sa-yoon the cute and playful name "Humph, I am a goddess," and upon seeing it, Kim Sa-yoon smiles brightly as if satisfied, hinting at the birth of a lovey-dovey couple and capturing attention. The studio MCs and the fathers are left speechless by the pair's full-blown sweet moments, and eventually cannot contain their rising smiles, drawing attention. In particular, Lee Jong-hyuk elicits laughter by showing true overinvolvement, saying with a grin that makes his gums show, "It's just fun, so lovey-dovey."
Soon after, in a conversation that seems to promise a future—"we'll make a winter perfume again in winter"—Kim Sa-yoon and Lee Seong-jun prompt MC Kim Sung-joo and Chuu to add fan-like comments such as "they must be thinking of a long relationship" and "people promise a future when they meet someone they like," heightening viewers' overinvolvement.
Meanwhile, the preview draws attention by showing the "my children" who have become honest in their expressions ahead of the final choice and the last date mission. When Lee Tak-soo asks, "Weren't you uncomfortable?" Jeon Su-wan honestly answers with a smile, "I liked it, though?" capturing a pink-tinged atmosphere between the two who have changed.
Also, when Jeon Su-wan asks, "Can I go into (the room)?" roommate Lee Shin-hyang playfully tries to break the awkwardness by saying, "No, you can't," but ultimately avoids the situation, saying, "I think I was a little uncomfortable." The suffocating moments among those around Lee Tak-soo keep the tension unbroken.
Moreover, Hong Seok-joo, who is struggling between Park Joon-ho and Ahn Seon-jun, shows conflict between the stability given by someone older and the appreciation for kindness, raising curiosity about the final choice. The direction of the last date mission for Lee Shin-hyang, Lee Tak-soo, and Jeon Su-wan, whose relationships accelerated through the truth game, also attracts curiosity.
Who Lee Shin-hyang, having confirmed Lee Tak-soo and Jeon Su-wan's feelings through the truth game, will ask out on a date will be revealed through the broadcast. Attention is focused on what ending the "my children's" flings will meet as they head somewhere with the inner-feelings tapes containing their final choices after five days of journey.
The final episode of the real-tension, overinvolved dating show "My Child's Love," which adds fun with the freshness of the "my children" and parents' objective zero reactions, will air today (the 8th) at 8 p.m. on tvN STORY and E Channel.
