‘I’m Solo’ Sang-cheol VS Young-soo, Jeong-sook, nervous battle over Yeong-ja

‘I’m SOLO (I’m Solo)’ 7th generation continued the romance of ‘Great Chaos’ even on the second date.

In the real dating program ‘I’m SOLO’ of NQQ and SBS PLUS that was broadcast on the 27th, 12 solo men and women enjoying a second date in ‘Golden 40’s Special’ was revealed, drawing the greatest interest from viewers. The broadcast on this day recorded an average of 2.7% based on Nielsen Korea’s count (the combined figure of NQQ and SBS PLUS based on pay TV in the metropolitan area), and the highest viewership rating per minute was 3.04%. ‘The Best One Minute’ was a part of the inner hearts of the female performers when they saw Youngho dressed up as ‘Kolttogi’.

In particular, the target audience rating of ‘I’m SOLO’, ‘Female 2549’, also maintained a high figure of 2.7%, which is the second highest in audience ratings including terrestrial broadcasters in the same time zone. This is the result of reflecting the full support of female viewers for ‘I Am SOLO’.

Sang-cheol and Young-soo, who had previously enjoyed a ‘2:1 date’ with Jeong-suk, had a subtle nerve battle from early in the morning over exercise. Afterwards, the two kept each other in check again by making ‘Morning Toast’ for Jeong-sook. Sang-cheol, who was in a hurry, eventually summoned Jeong-suk separately and threw a quick ball, “Is there anyone else on your mind?” Jeong-suk answered honestly, “Yes,” and “Sang-cheol feels like a better brother to me than the opposite sex.” To this, Sang-cheol said softly, “Try well with him, and if it doesn’t work, give me a chance too.”

Kyung-soo, who was watching the two nearby, immediately asked Jeong-sook for a ‘1:1 conversation’. Kyungsoo confessed, “It was frustrating because the atmosphere was too careful, and I felt like I needed a turning point.” Jeong-suk pondered. “To be honest, I have been (like Nam-nim) Kyung-soo since day one, but he chose someone else,” she said. Kyungsoo said, “I also told the production team that they were Oksun and Jeongsuk when making my first impressions. Oksun-nim chose this because he didn’t know too much, so he was curious.” He explained, exchanging pink signals.

Sang-cheol, who was politely rejected by Jeong-suk, approached Young-ja. Sang-cheol talked to Young-ja about her dating experience. Afterwards, in an interview with the production team, he explained, “I felt that he wanted to know a little bit more about Youngja after seeing him.” MC Defconn, who watched Sang-cheol’s change of heart, shivered, saying, “He stabs me gently here and there.”

After a while, the production team gathered all the solo men and women and proceeded to choose a second date. Here, the single women sequentially released photos from the past of the single men they chose on the first day of entering ‘Solo Nara 7’. Jeong-sook chose Kyung-soo, Ok-sun Eun-sik, Young-sook, Kwang-soo, Young-ja, Young-soo, and Soon-ja, Young-ho.

However, Sang-cheol, who became somewhat uncomfortable with the matching result of Young-ja and Young-su, returned to the dormitory and said to Young-su, “Please be nice (to Young-ja). Do you have no feelings for Youngja?” I thought. To this, Youngsu responded, “Isn’t it possible that I have a heart?” and resumed the tense fight. 3MC couldn’t keep their mouths shut, saying, “It’s tight” in the serious yet hot ‘Romance War’ in their 40s.

Ok-soon succeeded in going on a date with Yeong-sik, whom she was interested in, and was very excited. Since her hometown is Jecheon, Chungcheongbuk-do, she prepared a ‘native course’ from a Korean restaurant near ‘Solo Nara 7’ to a footbath cafe to satisfy her Oksun. The two enjoyed a friendly date on a variety of topics.

However, in an interview with the production team after the date, Young-sik said, “I was less excited than Ok-soon, who was chosen by four people, was interested in me. It feels like the conversation comes to life and then goes off.” On the other hand, Ok-soon expressed her strong affection for her, saying, “She has never thought of her as clearly as Yeong-sik.” Defconn, Lee Yi-kyung, and Song Hae-na were perplexed as if they had been hit in the back of the head after the extreme date.

Kwang-soo and Young-sook gave a fresh shock with a special date. On behalf of Kwang-soo who brought her father’s car, Young-sook escorted Kwang-soo and took the steering wheel. In addition, Young-sook opened and closed the door herself for Kwang-soo, and she transformed into a ‘Princess on a White Horse’. Even after her meal, Young-sook dressed slowly and paid at a super-fast rate instead of Kwang-soo wearing a mask. After that, she drove Kwang-soo to the front of her dorm. Lee Kyung-eun lamented, “I wish (Kwang-soo) would give me some lead,” and Young-sook also expressed her disappointment in an interview with the production team, saying, “I expected a warm reversal charm in freedom, but it was just what I expected.”

Soon-ja, who didn’t want the academy instructor to die, continued a date with Yeong-ho, a math instructor. Soon-ja said, “I thought we shouldn’t talk about academy,” and Young-ho also said “okay”, but the two people working in the same industry naturally talked about the academy. Afterwards, Youngsoo and Youngja enjoyed a cable car date, and took ‘two-shot selfies’ like real lovers, increasing their affinity for each other. On the other hand, Sang-cheol, who remained in ‘Solo Nara 7’, gave Yeong-cheol serious dating advice and gave off a ‘salty smell’.

Jeong-sook and Kyung-soo-eun enjoyed a date bursting with excitement. The two, who had already confirmed their feelings for each other, had a serious conversation about dating and marriage, and Jeong-sook actively agreed with Kyung-soo’s view of marriage, saying, “I want to become a son-in-law like a son and a daughter-in-law like a daughter.” After the date, Kyungsoo confessed that he was “a comfortable and good person”, and Jungsook also said that he was “a person similar to my ideal figure”, showing potential for progress.

However, at ‘Solo Nara 7 Street’, which returned after all the dates, Yeongho could not control his overflowing tension and performed the ‘Colttogi Gag Performance’ while wearing only underwear.

In particular, Kyungsoo reacted positively from the side and broke down together. Soon-ja, who came back from a date with Young-ho, responded coldly, saying, “It was terrifying personally.” Jeong-sook also reacted naively, saying, “It wasn’t my code, but Kyung-soo said it was so much fun.”

The romance of the 7th season of ‘I am SOLO’, where the chaos continues, can be found on May 4 at 10:30 pm NQQ (channel name changed to ENA PLAY from April 29) and SBS PLUS.
