"Child release project: boarding-house blind date" reached the final selection day after the formal meeting date.
On the 29th, the SBS entertainment show "Child release project: boarding-house blind date" (hereafter "Boarding-house blind date") aired a formal meeting date. Because the mothers went on a trip together, the cast members who had been getting to know each other as individuals were inevitably nervous about the suddenly held formal meeting date.
Kim Myojin was chosen by Moon Sehoon and Lee Seunghak. Moon Sehoon and Lee Seunghak's mothers liked Kim Myojin very much. Kim Myojin treated the mothers maturely and calmly, but her true feelings were not the same. Kim Myojin screamed at the production team, saying, "Why did you make my mom do the blind date? I was so surprised and shocked." Seo Jang-hoon said, "When the men choose, the concept was not a date but a formal meeting. We briefly forgot that," showing a naturally shocked expression.
The mothers said, "Sons and mothers see things the same way," and asked, "Two men picked one woman, so what happens to the rest?" and "How would the child who got zero votes feel? We know that feeling," thinking of Kim Myojin and then considering the cast member who might have received zero votes.
The cast member who received zero votes was Kim Jinju. Jang Mincheol had chosen another cast member. Kim Jinju shed tears, and Kim Jinju's mother comforted her daughter.
Kim Jinju encouraged her mother's proactive action, saying to her mother, "Mom, please go to Mincheol too." Kim Jinju's mother poured a drink for Jang Mincheol and made an appeal about her daughter.
Jang Mincheol said, "I can't get Kim Jinju out of my head. She fits the image I prefer. Jinju isn't meek, but she is pure. That's why I'm so stressed and my stomach is upset from being so immersed in this program. Jinju makes me feel a parental affection; I want to take care of and cherish her," already having confessed this to his mother. In addition, Jang Mincheol's mother regretted Kim Jinju after seeing her.
Kim Jinju pleased Jang Mincheol's mother by saying, "I was Mincheol from the beginning."
Meanwhile, Jo Eunnarae and Seo Hangeol were clearly attracted to each other, but because of a seven-year age gap the mothers showed opposite reactions. Jo Eunnarae's mother acted very submissively toward the other mother and made Jo Eunnarae uncomfortable by saying, "I want to marry her off right away." Seo Hangeol's mother had some displeasures, and Seo Hangeol was on edge fearing his mother would voice them.
Seo Hangeol teased, "Why is mom so restless in that situation," and Seo Hangeol's mother said, "Still, I thought involving me was giving me a chance to see things to some extent; you make the decision, but I think it gives me an opportunity too," but Seo Hangeol actually shed tears on the morning of the final selection over deep thoughts about the seven-year age gap and wrote a letter, making everyone wonder whether his feelings changed just before the final choice.
Meanwhile, "Boarding-house blind date" became a hot topic due to controversies such as a cast member's alleged affair exposure.
