Broadcaster Ji Yeonsoo went on a blind date for the first time in about 15 years, and her blind date was revealed to be comedian Im Woo-il, showing a pleasant chemistry.
On the 27th, the YouTube channel 'Ji Yeonsoo's Yeonsurobda' released footage showing Ji Yeonsoo participating in the production team's 'avatar blind date.'
Before the blind date, Ji Yeonsoo cautiously revealed, "Many people might ask, 'Why are you trying to get a boyfriend?'" The production team explained, "This is not a place to make a boyfriend but content prepared to wake up Ji Yeonsoo's dating cells."
She candidly shared her thoughts on her ideal type. Ji Yeonsoo said, "I've never really thought about what kind of person I would like," adding, "I might have cared about looks before, but now looks aren't important. I just hope the person isn't cold." Asked, "How long has it been since you talked with a stranger of the opposite sex?" she replied, "I think it's been about 15 years."
She also recalled a blind date experience in her 20s. Ji Yeonsoo said, "I was dumped harshly back then. I was rejected with comments like 'You seem like a peacock,' and I still can't forget that feeling," which drew sympathy. Seeming aware of possible misunderstandings, she repeatedly emphasized with a laugh that it was "not for the purpose of making a boyfriend but the production team's 'avatar blind date.'"
The blind date partner was comedian Im Woo-il. The production team introduced Im Woo-il as someone who fit the qualities Ji Yeonsoo had often listed as her ideal: "high school graduate, completed military service, strong life skills." Im Woo-il, too, said, "Usually doesn't the channel owner arrange blind dates?" expressing surprise at the unusual situation. Ji Yeonsoo honestly admitted her nervousness, saying, "It's been so long since I've talked one-on-one with a man that I don't know what to do. I've completely lost the feel for it."
As it was an avatar blind date, Im Woo-il followed the instructions of helper comedian Park Sung-kwang and performed quirky missions to liven the mood. With unexpected actions like suddenly imitating speech, he drew laughs and continued his characteristically playful banter. In particular, Im Woo-il boldly flirted, saying, "Why are you laughing so much? You must like me," and Ji Yeonsoo, embarrassed but repeatedly laughing, created a warm atmosphere.
After a lighthearted back-and-forth, the two finished the blind date, thanking each other and saying, "Thanks to you, I had a comfortable and enjoyable time," concluding their first meeting.
