'I am SOLO, and love continues afterward' Yongdam suddenly withdrew the affection he had been longing to give from 26th class Kyungsoo.
On the 19th, the ENA and SBS Plus variety show 'I am SOLO, and love continues afterward' (hereafter 'I am SOLO: after') aired, and amid ongoing passive-aggressive tensions between Yongdam and Gukhwa surrounding 26th class Kyungsoo, 26th class Kyungsoo was once again facing a one-versus-many date. Kyungsoo initially opened his heart to Yongdam's proactive and cute approach, but after having a fairly good and fun time with Gukhwa, he could not make up his mind.
Yongdam bluntly asked 26th class Kyungsoo before the date, "Don't you have anything to say so we can enjoy the meal? If your mind is already made up, it might not be bad to say it and leave." 26th class Kyungsoo replied, "I am going to try to focus to decide my feelings," and Yongdam was exasperated that he still had not made a decision.
26th class Kyungsoo said, "So I'll tell you clearly after I return from the date. But if I tell you now, I won't go on the date, right?" but Yongdam snapped back, "I'll go on the date. That's just my personality. If you haven't decided how you feel, you don't have to say anything, but if your mind is already made up and the situation might become uncomfortable later, then it's okay to talk about it," and answered angrily.
Rather, when they went on the date the two of them were more comfortable. Gukhwa waited quietly, and 26th class Kyungsoo began to take care of various things for Yongdam, who had been hurt last time.
However, they soon talked about views on marriage. In particular, 26th class Kyungsoo felt a bit bothered by Yongdam's comment heard the day before about "what you would do for your partner's family after marriage" and asked again.
Yongdam said firmly, "I want us to live separately. It's fine for families to meet when it's good between them. But you shouldn't expect your partner to take care of my parents," "I think this has to be voluntary. If you set rules, regular family gatherings, regular gifts, that creates conflict. Voluntariness is important," and "I think it's beautiful when you take care of someone and they naturally come back to you. The idea of 'we should take care of family' as an obligation is not good."
26th class Kyungsoo said, "I think some obligations are necessary. There are duties as a child, like parents' birthdays. Aren't there situations where you have to do things even if they don't come from the heart? But those are differences in thinking between people," indicating their differing views, and he had a strained conversation with Yongdam. The two then had one-on-one time. Yongdam had already settled his mind, saying 26th class Kyungsoo "has a 1980s mindset," and 26th class Kyungsoo also replied that his feelings for Gukhwa had grown, and the two cleanly ended things.
