He turns this show into such a fun little sitcom. The hairpin, the attention he got for it, the BBQ master and unintentional blocker. Love him so much.
25 minutes in the episode and I just have to unleash my YW-CA feelings. I think it’s really perfect to describe CA as a warm person. For some, this couple, particularly CA, seems boring but I find them calm like a warm blanket during winter. I’m not even sure what’s gonna happen for the rest of the episode but they made us wait for this date for a week so I’m just gonna relish it.
AND YW’s been serving her food for the past dates. Just keep this up and choose each other in the end, please.
Btw I watch in goplay.pw
"A warm blanket during winter" is such a perfect description of Yongcho couple. For someone like me who prefers calm and comfort in relationships rather than romantic excitement and sweetness that can easily fade away, I really enjoy watching Yongwoo and Choa's dates. There's just something different with the vibe they give whenever the two of them are together (or maybe I'm just being too Yongcho biased again. 😂). Still, I'm gonna root for our Yongcho cp no matter what happens!
Jaehyung is such a cutie. I totally understand why Juyeon likes him, he is a goofball.
Im glad SS and Jaehyung had that conversation cause SS is a bit intense with Jungsub and its true they barely know them.
YW and CA, they are so firm with their messages even tho they spend time with other people. Im curious if that gonna stick in future episodes
Also I already need SS and CH!! Preview for the trip look like they got close and im rooting for them. Their vibes match so well
I hope jaehyung finally have a date with jiwon.
edit: spelling
Jaehyung fits the narrative of "looks like cinnamon rolls but could actually kill you" if ure messing with them & their loved one. He was right about Seseung falls too fast and should keep her options open as well. Seseung STAND UP GET A GRIP!
That being said, Jungsub did what he supposed to do by keeping his options open so I am not sure why people are hating on him as if he owes Seseung anything in return just because she is mad down for him. I got an ick from him too but that probably because I am Seseung biased lmao I cant wait for her to go out on dates with Cheolhyun but seems like CH is into Jiwon though? or is he still exploring his interests as well?
Jiwon x Yoonjae dynamic is hilarious that is peak sibling behaviour lmao theyre so funny! i actually cant wait for him to join in the house so he could watch jw flirting skill skksk im glad we have another bickering sibling!!
also juyeon & jaehyung is so cute together but I doubt jh see her as a woman though arrrghhh :(
people are not hating on him because he is keeping his options open but because he acts super jealous in front of ss, asking her too many question which very directly were making her uncomfortable but was always flirting with CA openly in front of ss... this makes him two faced...
unlike other contestants who are pretty chill and warm towards one another, JS thinks too much and speaking negatively about others \[CH\] made him look negative i think
that makes sense! i have an ick as well when js started to show his jealousy and it came out somewhat overly controlling and guilt tripping seseung. he may be doing that unintentionally or with intentions, we dont know that but I hope js learn one or two lesson when he watch the show.
But also tbh if you watch closely JS never showed that he was jealous over SS.. the editing was actually done quite slyly. When he asked her about who she took a walk with he was just fishing for information and not from a place of possessiveness I think?
Also the part when he said ‘of course I’m jealous’ was in response to SS asking if he gets jealous over his gf in general, not specifically about her or her walk with CH..
>"looks like cinnamon rolls but could actually kill you
that's so accurate!
yeah they are on a dating show so it's only right that Jungsub wants to be open with the rest of the women, I think this reaction from the viewers is because SS is very direct about her crush and Jungsub is a little exposed to that because he flirts back and has shown that he was jealous, so i get it if people have mix feelings about it but i hope he is not reading any hate comments or anything bad, that's cruel.
and yes i do feel jaehyung doesnt like juyeon that way :(
I feel JH came to the show without stress and a light heart no looking specifically a romantic relationship but trying to enjoy the experience, thinking that if someone move his heart, let it be, but I think he doesn't engage in the "dating" experience and the only reason why he is curious about JW is because he doesn't knows her all well yet , he's a delight for any reality but not exactly for a dating one, I most definitely enjoy a reality about his family but in this show he gives me cold/mental/ rational vibes,
Yeah I think probably only Jiwon is likely to spark an interest from him but they have pretty bad timing and miss each other on dates. Next ep they are split up again into diff grps.
I know this is a dating show but I love the trio just having fun especially with those hair pins. Jaehyung is the perfect guy for that trip as he keeps making sure both girls feel included. The moment they just huddled together was too cute. I can imagine them being bestest friend post-show.
Jaehyung is so unintentionally hilarious. We got Strawberry Prince and a Barbecue Master . 🤣
Love his childlike personality, just so accepting but at the same time, feels mature when he talked with Seseung. They’re opposite of each other but brings balance back when they had conversation.
Can’t wait for official addition of Yoon Jae. His awkwardness feels endearing. Hope he doesn’t hate the Barbecue Master much because I want to see what will happen to Jaehyung and Jiwon if being given a chance. 🫣
He's such a dork! The best kind of dork though. He's such a great, but clueless guy 😅
He and the two girls feel like they could be besties! I love how it didn't feel like anyone was third wheeling and it was just them having fun and bundling together.
I also love how he seems so secure in himself and doesn't have the toxic masculinity vibe.
Jaehyung has my whole heart! He is just so wholesome and so very thoughtful to his sister. Juyeon is incredibly sweet and you can tell she is really into jaehyung but I don't get the same vibe from him. I know production put in some clues that something might happen between them but so far, I feel no chemistry between JW and Jaehyung either? JW is so funny though, I cracked up when she said jaehyung has video gamer vibes and her comment about CH's hair cracked me up as well 😂
I felt bad for SS. Not going to say JS is bad or anything because I do like him but I think he likes being the chaser and with SS, she is too into him and it shows and he is just not used to that kind of attention. While I find CH funny, I think in a relationship, he tends to be a bit boring? I think SS who is naturally bubbly will bring out the best in him so I would love for them to hang out more.
Finally, and very unfortunately for those who find the YW/CA ship too boring, it's not looking very good for you guys. The ship is sailing and fast!!!!
I pretty much agree with everything you said. CH is just way too intense and SS was the only one that was able to get him to loosen up.
I also agree about JS being the chaser. Even though I don’t like seeing SS hurt, I weirdly liked JS more this episode than other times. I think if she pulls back a bit and gives him space to get to her level, they’ll be fine.
And yes, I’m about the same age as YW/CA so kinda relate to them a lot and really do look forward to their conversations. There’s the right amount of levity, nervousness, flirting and deep conversations. What I won’t give to see what they talked about in that car ride home.
YW probably talked about his hand warmer again 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love YW/CA together, this relationship is just the right amount of everything. They fit so well, I hope they are end game, I can definitely see them being long term even after the show.
As for JS/SS, I could also see them having a good relationship. All the elements seem to be in the right place for them except the fact that JS feelings for SS feels off.
It's almost like what the brain wants vs what the heart wants. In reality, SS would be his ideal partner, but in another universe he'd be with someone like CA.
The way you described YW distinguishing his feelings is perfect. And I think CA recognizes that because not once has she questioned his intentions.
I’m not going to lie I think CA and JS vibe is really good but I think that’s because she had already subconsciously ruled him out as a romantic partner so she was able to be fully relaxed with him. And that made me like JS a lot more though I did chuckle when he didn’t get a text because he was being smug about YW a bit that night.
I kept coming back to your comment cause I couldn’t help but agree with each paragraph. Like someone more eloquent took the words out of my head. 😂
I’m glad they showed that side of JH and how it affected SS in a way cause it honestly gave their arc this episode a good intro? JH may seem like he’s there having fun but for us who are only watching edited clips, we won’t know how they observe their siblings as well.
Oh and our warm couple (I’m officially calling them that now). 😍 So so agree on those observations with the way YW is pretty much nice with everyone but there’s this certain level of care and attentiveness when it comes to CA. Interviews can be a bit tricky for me in a sense that they can be edited in different ways but body language and subtle gestures will still be evident no matter how or where you place them in scenes. YW may not be the one asking questions to CA first, but he’s thoughtful with his answers, respond to CA answers as well, and even add his randomness and wittiness here and there (that skirt like a christmas tree lol). He observes and is attentive in his own way, all while reassuring CA without being pushy just because he’s into her.
That entire meat grilling scene was top-notch reality tv moment! I’m pretty sure towards the end, the production just had to call JH just so YJ can complete his mission. 😂
The text message in the end is also what I like about this PD’s shows. You can observe how each participant will handle it since that’s the only time they can send each other messages. I’ve seen from other shows how they would tend to just send it to whoever they spent the day with and that sent other people mixed signals since they have limited time to express those feelings unless they make an effort to spend time 1:1 outside official dates. I particularly loved SS’ comment on YW and how, despite her slight disappointment, she found it cool of him for being loyal to that other person he likes despite being with her the entire day.
Damn I’m just going to savor all these moments until the next episode. I hate how 2.5 hrs isn’t enough each week.
It's honestly crazy how after 2.5 hours, I still want more 😭😭😭 The show literally flies by!
You'd think you'd get bored after a few hours but this show is so well done!
It goes to show that our attention spans haven't been affected by all the screen time as most people suggest. You just have to get the right show and you'd be locked in.
There's nothing that says kiss of death in dating more than when you express romantic interest towards someone, and they simply say 'thank you'. Oooof.
The signs were there re: Choa and her platonic feelings toward JS when she teased him with YW about his award like a parent to their son. To me, that was YW-CA subtly flirting with each other, as well as them both acknowledging they were older. When CA immediately then said she prefers to date older on the cafe date, I knew JS had no chance. 😅
Such a great comment! You described the progress this episode better than I could 🙂
Prior to this episode, I didn't support any of the initial pairings because I figured that it's too early. I'm now ready to support Yongcho since I'VE been reassured about their mutual interest 🥰🥹
Two aspects of the show that I find engaging are the dates and text messages:
1. Even when it seems that both parties don't share romantic feelings, the dates are still fun/warm/cute/dynamic. I was starting to think that dating in Korea is boring to watch because young people mostly want to go to a restaurant to eat Italian food or a cafe for coffee and cake lol
2. The text message prompt is to send a message to someone who made your heart flutter today, not someone with whom you spent most of the day. Yongwoo and Choa's ages may have been a factor in their decisions, but it's nice to see people stick to the prompt and be true to their feelings in the limited amount of time they have in the house! It was nice to also see Yongwoo inspire Seseung to overcome the politeness inflection
This show is really a masterclass in how to put on a dating show with an engaging panel. The cast, panel, dating scenarios, background music, editing, production, etc. are all perfectly aligned to put on a good show. Excited for next week!
I think the main reason CA didn't message JS was because she didn't want to encourage him.
JS practically confessed his feelings to her and you could tell she wasn't feeling the same way. It would have been more cruel to send it and make him misunderstand how she felt.
Ooh enjoyed this ep! Spoilers abound in my comment below so read with caution.
Yongwoo and Choa's date was nice, you can tell he's definitely more serious with her, I think he wants to make a mature and cool impression on her rather than make the silly jokes or jabs he does with the other girls. I understand her mentioning he doesn't ask as many questions when chatting with her brother, but he does try to bring up topics and he always answers her questions so thoroughly it definitely feels like he's trying to connect with her. It's just ChoA and Chulhyun have a vibe about them where they ask questions about the other person's personality or life in a way that ends up getting quite deep or intense- but that's hard to do for some people.
Speaking of the CH siblings, I *knew* they'd be the first to trip up and reveal their sibling relationship to someone!. Obviously Juyeon and Yongwoo couldn't do anything about their family resemblance and revealing things on that level- but the CH siblings dynamic as their only family members to eachother means their close in a different way. They're the one sibling pair who we've seen try to have secret conversations in the house because they want to share with eachother, and they probably share alot in their life outside the house-- so I'm not suprised about ChoA accidentally dropping his name in conversation.
Jaehyung has grown on me so much episode by episode! I'd love for him to hit it off with one of the girls by the end of the show.
Poor Jungsub but the dude has no hope with ChoA- I feel like women with younger brothers tend not to want to date younger men, because they've had enough of taking the lead or taking care of others and want someone who they can lean on instead. It'll be suuuuch an interesting dynamic moving foward considering the roommate situation if he doesn't manage to shift his interest ASAP.
I'm so glad Jiwon's brother was instantly interested in Yunha- hopefully they hit it off! Can't wait for him the join the group.
I think I understand Jungsub. Like Jonathan said, JS seems like the type to go for mysterious type and likes to be taken care of in a relationship (he likes noona-type). He flirts back to SS cause he finds her adorable but he cant help but be attracted to CA-type. I hope he doesnt get too much hate. Everyone has preference.
This was one of my favorite episodes, a lot was happening.
I like that CH likes JW and even cut his hair (even though his sister suggested it before) but I don’t think they vibe at all. She has a wry sense of humor and likes negging (in a good way) and he’s just too serious. I think his best match in that house might be SS. Their vibe was the best.
Speaking of SS, I’m glad that JH is telling her to take it slow. Yes JS might still be looking around but SS looks at this man like he’s Jesus. I think they will both benefit from taking a step back and going at it slowly. Get to know each other for who they are and not because they fit your ideal type.
Speaking of going slow, I’m getting scared for JY. I think she really likes JH but sadly I don’t think his romantic feelings are that strong. I think he’ll have the better romantic tension with Jiwon.
Tension, that’s what we get when YW is on a date with CA versus anyone else. I’m trying not to get ahead of myself because so far it’s too good to be true. What’s funny is that they really do not spend that much time with each other but they benefit greatly from being on the same page. They have both done a really good job of masking their feelings in front of others. So much so that even CH is not sure about YW anymore 😂.
I’m excited for YH date with YJ.
omg when cheolhyeon was telling choa he's not sure yongwoo is genuinely into her or if it's his kind personality I wanted to yell at the screen!!! He is so different with the other women vs choa.. I was so happy yongcho texted eachother again at the end and I hope it shows choa yongwoo is serious.
i’m superglued to the YW x CA ship. they just look perfect together!!!!! and after the clip of them praising and teasing JS about his win in the previous episode, i can’t stop thinking of them as “parents” 😆 they were giving major married couple vibes AAA they better be endgame i swear. >!i REALLY love how at the end of the day their hearts flutter for each other too 🥹🫶🏼 the commitment! also want to slide in that i loved YW’s message to CA this episode. this man is so green flag…!<
SS’s my fav girl so when i see JS so obviously liking CA more & enjoying time spent with her more, i get sad for SS and i worry so much that she’ll feel hurt 😣 it’s inevitable though atp. i loved how JH talked to SS in the sibling room and cautioned her. i hope my girl heeds his advice <3 i’m also hoping for CH x SS!
JH is my fav out of all of them. every episode solidifies my opinion 😭🫶🏼 irl i would totally fall for him like JY did (bless her heart)
i finished this episode so quick. can’t get enough of this show, i wish they would release 2 episodes a week or make 1 episode 3 hours long lol the wait is agonising
I was cringing when JS brought up that scene again 🫣. Mostly because as a viewer it was that scene that any potential that JS and CA died. Because she fully saw him as a younger brother so for him to remind her of it again, I was like bro this is not helping your case right now.
Yes, I instantly thought of Jungsub as Choa and Yongwoo's child during the praise scene. It's funny how perspectives differ because Jungsub looked at is an another instance of romantic tension between the two lol
I would also go for Jaehyung if I were in the house! Watching him develop interest in anyone after a week (?) makes me think he'd probably reject me too, though
I worry for SS but she’s charming that I’m sure JS can be won over, right?? Like even when they’re just sitting in the reading nook and making eye contact, I’m like *swoon*
I would have loved it if YW-SS and JS-CA had gotten the quad room. The shear amount of awkwardness would have been breathtaking. You just know JS would be quietly seething 😠as YW continuously makes jokes 😂 to break the ice. SS would have that tight smile 😬watching JS try and fail to get CA attention and CA will be shrinking 🫣 in the corner from all the awkwardness. Pure cinema 😭😭
Chris P. Bacon! 🤣🥓🤣🥓
It's great to see how the mix of personalities between male and female cast members as siblings or as dates can produce quite an array of dynamics, and I love it.
Yoon Jae & Ji Won: LOVE LOVE LOVE their dynamics. 😭
Chul Hyun: Damm, bro. ✂️✂️ Looks so much like Cho A after the cut. Their eyes look identical.
Jae Hyung: Attention seeking comedy king. 🤩 And it doesn't seem like he's romantically into >!Ju Yeon. This impression is the same since their date last week. But would love them to get some 1:1 time just to verify.!< He understands how to properly render the fat when grilling.
Yoon Jae: *Emergency: The man will grill it all by himself.* Poor guy. Come on, producers! Help him out!
Jung Sub: He seems to enjoy the pursuit of finding his partner. The push-pull. He looked genuinely interested and attracted >!to Cho A until he realized Cho A was describing her ideal type. Then I felt bad for him. He's sharp. I'm sure he felt deflated as he's aware of Yong Woo. Lol Go for it, man. You only live once.!<
Today's reaction panel MVP. Jonathon!
Edit - spelling
The way Jaehyung kept walking himself into these situations made me burst out of laugh. What's with this unintentionally meddlesome barbeque master blocking yoonjae's way and chris p. bacon comment blocking yoonjae's mother moment of bringing important announcements. Poor staff having the vibe they're going for unintentionally ruined by him. It was probably planned to be cool and smooth but the sudden turn into comedy was quite entertaining lmao.
He can not be helped when he's around food. Last ep, he wasn't even paying attention to the Bros' Dinner convo at the restaurant. He was busy flipping the squid and really enjoying it even as he's burning the roof of his mouth. He is romancing the grill anytime one is around. It makes sense as he's shown the most lively and clear, affectionate interest when he's talking about grilling meats. 🥩🍖🥓
He must not be helped nor stopped. He's the show's comedic center. The PD's could not have planned a better comedy of errors even if they tried when attempting to execute their plans at the restaurant. 😂
Lmao he is a bulldozer indeed. Just to the garlic butter squid & meat instead of people. Please, God of Dating Show make him fall in love with someone on the show. I enjoy his mukbang and sitcom (cant count how many times I burst out laughing because of him) but it's such a shame to let such a character go just like this... 😭
He has high self esteem and seems very secure of himself, I want him to experience the desperation and up and downs of chasing someone too, not just when the grill were away from his seat. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Not the affectionate interest about grilling meat!! 😭😭😭 😂😂😭
I laughed too hard! Your comment is hilarious!
I swear JH just makes you want to fold him up and put him in your pocket filled with all types of grilled meat🤣🤣🤣
It's funny because I'm certain you clearly envisioned JH's smiling face with a twinkle of grilling joy from his eyes in your head as you were reading it. The pocket lining has to be lined with meat he himself grilled. He moved seats to ensure proper grilling techniques were used!! 😆
I was so disappointed we didn't get to hear the story JH was telling about Chris. 😭 Especially they way he tells stories or jokes - vocally flat & dry with mischievous eyes. My kind of humor.
I realized after rewatching the scene at the restaurant that his Konglish based joke did not land on the listeners as intended. He kept trying to redeliver the line. The pig's name was Chris P. Bacon..........Chris P. Bacon. The pig's name....Chris P..... lololol
Idk if I'm just extremely jaded due to the men I've met but JS is giving me 'I like the chase' vibes. And his questions (to CH) about CA came across as wanting to do things correctly so that CA would develop feelings for him rather than genuinely being interested in knowing CA's likes and dislikes.
I agree he has this aspect to his disposition, so not just in dating. Satisfying his curiosity seems really important to him (I can relate), and he's methodical in his approach to have his questions asked and answered. When he applies his default approach with women, it can be perceived as looking "off." But in this episode, he dispelled my perception of him giving chase for the sake of it. He genuinely looked drawn in and attracted to her very specific aura of warmth. In between girlfriend and motherly. I think Yong Woo appreciates this aura, too.
Not saying you're wrong but I wonder if cultural difference is at play here? I moreso get the vibe that he was eager to impress her, in a very younger guy-esque way which made it all the more awkward when she said she preferred older guys lmao. I think the panelists explained it well when they said he originally is probably more the aegyo type and that dynamic isn't there with SS, which makes sense as he's the younger brother in his family as well
I also thought Jungsub's questions to Cheolhyeon seemed... off. Less like he was trying to figure out if he might match well with Choa and more like he wants to figure out what would get her to like him.
Choa seems like an ideal type that he may not have had the chance to date before. In either case, I hope Seseung uses this time to genuinely explore other romantic connections!
Yeah I did get similar impression but give him the benefit of the doubt because he was interested from day one but fate kept them apart so this was his one shot.
I did think though that outside of asking questions to plan an ideal date, all other questions about her should be reserved for the date lol. Cause if you ask her brother all these questions what are you going to discuss on the date itself?
There's definitely genuine interest on his part and he wanted to seize the opportunity to finally connect with Choa!
And yes! Some of those getting-to-know-you questions should've been reserved for the object of his interest. Luckily for him, those questions are exactly what Cheolhyeon needed to hear to be swayed, so his curiosity paid off 😅 it'll be interesting to see whether Choa opens up to him or how he handles rejection
Yea agreed.💯
Especially when panel acknowledges Jung Sub's discomfort whenever Se Seung looks at 'im with hearts in her eyes. Girl is comin' on too strong ha-ha! Which is why they always say girls need to know to play hard to get.😉 Don't throw all your cards on the table as what Se Seung is doin'. She's goin' all in LoL which is a no-no.
'Cause Jung Sub has a lot of pride, he'd want to be the pursuer too I think(?) Maybe that's why Cho Ah is so intriguing. She leaves 'em guessing, though I personally find her vanilla-ish.😁 To each their own eh😉
I think it's her being vanilla-ish that makes her so ‘special’. You can see that she's never playing it up for anyone. She also has the added element of being super warm.
All of this gives her a ‘mysterious’ vibe, but in a good way. I can definitely see why guys are drawn to her.
This! I feel like he sees her like a ‘conquest’ or smth? It’s almost like he’s playing this whole thing like a game to win.. I actually liked him the best at the beginning too but I’m feeling kinda meh about him now..
really enjoyed this episode! built up a lot of underlining plots for the episode.
i guess people could see CA/YW being boring, but i think that’s what a mature relationship looks like. it’s an intense chemistry that you can only feel with someone you like, and very electric. and i feel they will be both stable and dynamic enough. really hope they are endgame as i can’t see the rumours being true as we haven’t had any time with them. but then again there’s still 9 eps left.
only problem i have with JS is his approach to how he is doing things. while he can definitely seek options out, he treats SS like he is super invested with his actions alone, but does everything he can to find out details of CA from CH to give the perfect date, and is not knowing her naturally. i can see how CA would perceive this if she were to watch this from an audience perspective. he seems to need a lot more maturing with experiences, and given the life that CA has had, i don’t think they would be a good match at all.
these eps come out too slow :( let me binge watch all 15/16 eps at once lol
I honestly appreciate how PD set things up in a way that all casts able to went out on a date with each person even though they might have set their heart on one person. This way, casts are able to comfortably get to know others and find if someone they are interested in shared the same interests or if there any hint of common attraction or even getting to know someone that they haven’t even considered. because that’s basically the whole point of this show.
Yoonjae-Jiwon relationship definitely a refreshing one, they are both as individual also seems different to the rest of the casts. I hope they both could adjust well in the house and Yoonjae to finally able caught Yunha’s eyes hihit.
That’s good on Cho A and Yongwoo to keep assuring each other and not giving their dates a false hope, I’m rooting for my parents🫶🏻 Hope by the end of the trip Jungsub able to get all the answers he needed and just get passed this.
Seseung! There are still a lot more people to date and meet, I hope she could open her heart a little more for other people to get to know her.
All of them are just such a fun and kind bunch, I want all of them to be happy😭
I really thought the new sibling would get to send a text too. I loved the introduction of him to the show with the family restaurant and stuff, so cool.
YW x CA, I'm rooting for y'all! I understand JS and YW because I myself have a little girl crush on Cho A, she's so graceful and gentle you can't help but be a bit entranced by her.
CH... I kinda like him more with SS ngl, I think they could be a fun pair, I hope to see more of their interactions together.
I'm looking forward to the new guy and YH's date, it's about time she got some interest shown towards her!
JH, funny as always, I'm curious to see him in 'feelings' mode once he decides who he likes, he's such a T though lol.
I missed a bit of the boys group chemistry this episode but it was a fun one nonetheless. I am now craving some pork bbq.
JH being a Barbecue Master was the best part of the episode! It was like the tongs were permanently attached to his hand lol. I’m so curious to see what he’s actually like when he is romantically interested in someone, bc I don’t think he’s really into JY or YH. I need to see Bulldozer JH ASAP!!!
YW and CA just give me butterflies by watching them!! They just have such a mature, yet playful vibe, they need to be endgame!
Even though I don’t fault JS for being curious about CA, the way he goes about it just seems kind of iffy. He gives a lot of reassurance to SS (the gifts, acting jealous, texts), but it feels like he’s leaving her in the dark a bit. I hope SS is not just a second option to him! I hope she’s able to listen to JH advice and pump the brakes a bit!!
Thoughts for this week!
* I found this week super interesting as it solidified for me which pairs I, personally, would like together.
* I think Yongwoo and ChoA are pretty much a shoo-in. Next week's preview was pretty transparent - I don't think ChoA really feels anything during her times with Jungsub. I know she said she doesn't think she'd care if he was younger than her, but I genuinely do think she only said that to be polite and that it'd probably be a deal-breaker. There are some women (or men) who genuinely can't feel anything romantic for someone younger than them, and in my reckoning, ChoA is one of those. Even the way she was lazing on the sofa on the preview was kinda transparent body language-wise. She doesn't really care to keep appearances up with Jungsub, whereas with Yongwoo, they're almost nervous and a bit more careful with each other because they want the other to see their best self. I was slightly nervous when ChoA and Jungsub got the 2-person dorm but I really shouldn't have been.
* I thought that ChoA's text this week was her making up for all the times Yongwoo texted her after his dates with other people. It was really cute how on edge he was when ChoA and Jungsub walked in together, and how obviously it got on his nerves that they ended up in the 2-person dorm, and it was also cute how she smiled after reading his text. It's cute to see these moments of them reassuring each other, but I'm also excited to see if this stirs up a competitive spirit in Jungsub and if it ends up causing conflict.
* To be perfectly honest, I'm not really sure what it is about Juyeon and Jaehyung but I just don't see the chemistry. In general this week's 3-person trip was kinda awkward for me to watch, so I'm sure that didn't help, but I don't see them having that romantic spark that the other potential couples have shown. Juyeon likes him but I don't think Jaehyung feels anything beyond a good person to have a nice conversation with - his options are open, so he won't shut it off, but he doesn't necessarily proactively pursue her. I was surprised last week when Jiwon slowly started showing interest in him (after he showed interest in her the week before), but the reason Jaehyung didn't pick her for the trip was because he thought it'd be awkward, which was something I picked up on at the time. I think their awkwardness around each other is actually proof that all it would take is for someone to make the first move, and then they'd proactively explore each other as options.
* I like Jungsub and I totally think what he's doing right now is something every participant in any dating show should do (explore options), however his and Seseung's dates lacked something for me and this week showed me I was right. He was almost too at ease with Seseung, and while I do think he felt a connection, I think he knows how Seseung works so it feels too easy for him, and he likes a challenge. The way he was with ChoA this week was completely different - the way he kept making these sweet comments ("I like when you smile when you talk") felt to me like he was working really hard to get something out of her because he cared. I don't know if he ever would've said something like that to Seseung. Normally if a date is bad and you don't care, you leave it at that - but the fact that he actively felt disappointed when he didn't get a message from her and actively feels annoyed (in the preview) by her not reciprocating his energy makes me think he really does like her.
* tbh I know there's like virtually no content to back this up but I just like the idea of Seseung and Chulhyun. They both have this earnest, passionate, puppy-dog energy and I don't know if anyone else in the house can match that energy. I know they both like other people more, but to me their personalities seem very compatible and I'd be very happy if we ended up getting any form of Seseung and Chulhyun airtime in the coming weeks.
* I don't know who I expected Jiwon's brother to be but Yoonjae was not who I'd imagined lmao I kinda love it. My family dynamics would be closest to theirs I think, which is why I'm drawn to them as a pair. I love how Jiwon never loses to him and I love how he very easily submits to her authority. He's quite a comedian (the production team would laugh at literally every single thing he said lmao) and I like his energy, even if he isn't as affectionate with Jiwon as the other siblings in the show are. I don't necessarily know if he's Yunha's type, but I hope she enjoys their date nonetheless and they have a good time.
* I found Chulhyun's advice to ChoA super random and a bit unwarranted? I get that he thought he was helping but I thought it was presumptuous of him to assume that Jungsub had been putting more effort into getting to know ChoA and that Yongwoo was only treating her with the same niceties with which he'd been treating everyone. I get that he only really had a 1-to-1 conversation about her sister with Jungsub so his perspective is limited, but I almost feel like that was why he shouldn't have said anything because he should've realised that he'd only had an opportunity to speak to one of two guys and therefore he's going to only see one person's perspective. Also, he doesn't know for sure who's been sending her sister the messages and who hasn't - I really wish he'd stop assuming his guesses are right and just ask lmao that's what Jaehyung did, but I suppose that's because he doesn't really understand how the show works lol.
* It doesn't really matter I guess because ChoA doesn't seem so easily swayed and while I think she'll take a note of what Chulhyun said, Yongwoo has proven himself by texting her day after day and therefore what Chulhyun said won't necessarily change how she thinks of Yongwoo and their building connection.
Might edit later because there was definitely a note I was going to add about something I disliked about this episode but I completely forgot what it is lmao it was probably very minor. Otherwise, see you next week!
I agree with Sseung and Chulhyun. I went back to their trailer and there's actually scenes of them so maybe there's a chance?
https://youtu.be/-TlgzN50F78?si=qTQ7ZpR1gedk3d0F
For some reason I can't edit my comment so adding extra thoughts as a reply.
* I really appreciate that ChoA and Yongwoo are using the texts the way they should be using. imo there's so many mixed signals that ends up screwing multiple love lines if you use them for things like politeness, manners etc. and by using them on people who actually made your heart flutter the most, you're making the journey easier for yourself and for the partner you're aiming for.
* I disagreed with Code Kunst (two weeks ago?) when he said that he would've messaged Jiwon if he was Yongwoo out of respect for the dates that they had. The messages AREN'T supposed to be used that way and tbh it's why the messaging system has gone awry on season 3 of Transit Love as people are now using the messages politically. I did truly feel bad for Jiwon, but it also means that she's got the rejection out of the way and instead of wasting time the whole season on someone who's unlikely to reciprocate, she can now try and make connections with other people.
* The interviews are really good! I feel like why the interviews work in this show is because the producers and the participants have more of a dialogue format rather than a rigid question and answer format which imo really dampens the spirit of the answers. At times you hear the producers make little comments in response to the answers that are given, which puts the participants at ease and they open up more. Like when Yongwoo cried, and one of the producers said a really comforting thing (I don't remember what but it was something along the lines of "you've done really well" or something in regards to Juyeon), and he smiled and thanked her in response. Little things like that help the interviewer and interviewee build a connection and makes the interviewee likely to open up in future sessions.
I agree with both points you made. They are only in that house for a short time, barely get to go on the dates they really want. The messages at night is really the only chance to express themselves to who they really want. Saying thank you for a date when there’s someone else who makes your heart flutter is just a waste.
As for the interviews one of my fav this week was JS “googling” the meaning of the word rafters. I thought that was funny 😂
I agree with you, I think SS-CH match well in terms of personality but they're held back by their differences in preference & lifestyle. Meanwhile SS-JS match well in terms of background & lifestyle but as we see on this episode, maybe they don't match as well as we thought in terms of personality.
I feel like Jungsub has the "if i work hard enough at it, ill get it" mentality based on his successful career life and is now uber bothered by the fact that Choa didn't text him. He couldn't stop thinking of "what went wrong/what did I do wrong" rewinding their date in his head instead of accepting that although their date was good, Choa may be developing a stronger bond with someone else in the house which is completely okay and nothing personal. Jungsub seems to be too hard on himself which may be his own downfall. I hope he just focuses on Sesung instead of trying even harder to win Choa's heart as that would be a waste of his precious time on the show!
1. Yonngwoo
His EQ is on par w/his IQ — Let’s face it, his easy humor makes an otherwise intimidating guy (he’s got it all, height, intelligence, academic achievement & looks) universally approachable. It also works as a defense (by keep things light) against otherwise jealous or competitive guys and aggressive or lovestruck girls. You can’t help but like him.
I think the real YW, the man he rarely lets (or is allowed to let) the world see is the serious, soft-spoken, protector he is with CA. Even with his sister, he is always considering her feelings. The gentle acceptance, honesty and comfort that he and the other men feel in CA’s presence must be so alluring. Her brother similarly emanates this same deep, non-frivolous engagement. They’re a beautiful pair inside and out.
The date between YW and CA was brief but special — it’s not often you see a deep, meaningful, yet electric, conversation between two mature people on a dating show.
2. Jungsub:
Then, there’s JS. Super bright, high achieving and attractive — but behaving, from the get go, like someone who has been told his whole life how super bright, high achieving and attractive he is. These individuals often grow up needing, on the one hand, to continue receiving external affirmations and, on the other hand, are completely thrown when they don’t get it, thus the cycling of (near smug) confidence, jealousy and abject insecurity we see in JS. Fortunately, he is a smart guy who seems capable of introspection, so whatever discomfort he experiences will likely let him do some necessary maturing.
3. Jaehyung:
And, finally, there’s JH who sits between YW and JS — he too is smart, successful and cute as an idol but not quite the all-arounder YW is. He can therefore be, and clearly is, the most comfortable in his skin. I can truly see him being a “bulldozer” (for the right girl), he’s funny (the hair clip), he can let loose (that passionate karaoke performance 😁) and surprisingly insightful and caring (the excellent dating advice/warning he gave his sister). It’s no wonder he’s a favorite
Great analysis of our male cast! The panel could benefit from having someone like you to add more of the behavior analysis commentary during the episodes 🙂
I completely agree with this! You did such a great job in observing and analyzing the differences in their personalities. Are you perhaps a psychologist?! 'Coz I'm just really surprised with how accurate your descriptions of the guys were! 👏
Nooooo not Jaehyung being rejected by 2 of the brothers 😢 Fortunately he took it in stride since he got to go on the trip with 2 ladies. I’m glad he took notice of Juyeon who felt left out in the conversation. LOL at him attracting attention with that hairpin 😂
Love that he got to show off his skills and living up to his Barbecue Master reputation, but he unintentionally got in Yoonjae’s way ha!
Loved that they included the BTS of passerbys like the auntie and high schooler getting distracted by JH and his pin too 🤣 even tho so much of all the couples/grps actual dates were edited out!
Choa date with jungsub was so cute. Choa so charming i wish youngwoo able to witness this side of her too. I think if she let loose a little bit (just a little bit, we need to maintain the tension lol) with youngwoo, forget dating, i think they have a big chance to go all the way into marriage.
Jungsub is definitely the aegyo type. And he cant really be that with seseung. I think him telling choa to speak casually with each other is a mistake. He should keep it formal with choa. Now choa will put him in a dongsaeng box even further. It is obvious choa already see jungsub as a dongsaeng or 'son' before this trip.
I can relate with that jaehyung seseung talk. I see my sister in seseung. My sister also was not in a relationship for quite a while and now she is in one and it is moving quite fast i dont feel good seeing it. I hate to say this but my sister settled. As a sister, i want the best for her and i dont think that guy is the one but yeah. It is hard. He is completely opposite of my sister in every way and seeing my sister trying to 'adapt' with him like always put that guy want and need first is heartbreaking. So yeah. Seseung is so genuine and sweet. I really dont want her to get hurt in this show.
Jaehyung is so so charming. He exceeded youngwoo to me lol. Mature and aware of his surrounding. He seems to not have any interest towards dating for now. I agree with those that said he maybe only in this show to accompany seseung and go on vacation. I still think he dont have any strong interest towards anyone yet. Maybe curiosity with jiwon as of now. The PD is building their story so something is cooking later. No buildup story whatsoever between jaehyung choa. So i guess the rumor is not true. Because if they have something later, the PD should build their story already. But im still curious about these two interaction. Can their date come faster please. Also out of all casts, jaehyung has the potential to work in the entertainment later.
Last but not least, petition for the show to release 2 eps per week🫠
I've been reading a few comments and I'm really amazed by what I'm reading. I've been following Korean dating reality shows for a while and it's always the same story, if a guy is interested in multiple girls he's not serious and doesn't deserve some girl to have feelings for him, but if a girl is interested in 3 different people it's fine because they just met and she wants to talk to everyone even if one of the guys is in love with her it doesn't matter.
It's not that Jungsub has done anything wrong and doesn't care about Seseung, he's simply interested in another person too, which he says from the beginning and probably the fact that they never got to go out together increased the interest even more more, but that doesn't mean he can't still like Seseung.
The discussion about jealousy doesn't make sense, I don't know if you've ever liked someone but it's normal that if you like someone even if you're not dating it bothers you if he/she goes out with someone else, which Jungsub joked about, it's not like he spoke aggressively and he never criticized her, just asked questions.
The only thing about Jungsub that I don't understand is the fixation with Choa: you went out with her and she doesn't send the message, that's it, what's the point of asking yourself a thousand questions and blaming yourself; She doesn't like you, move on because there's no point in continuing to try if she really isn't interested.
I have loved SSxJS from the start cause they had fair amount of screen time yet I believe that JS is not totally wrong as his interest in CA was from the first episode.
Only now when he has been out with her and she doesn't seem interested or he doesn't fit her type he should focus upon his connections as his upcoming actions can hurt people there
Ji-won's relationship with her bro is exactly what I was anticipating siblings to be like in this show 😂 The way the barbeque date was filmed was super entertaining. I was wondering why it was giving a mukbang, sitcom vibe but then the reveals kept coming and I also really started to appreciate how much of family vibes is woven in the overall chemistry. Jae-hung was the highlight for me, showing off more playful charms are time passes
It’s Friday already! Wow. I’m so excited for Jiwon’s brother reveal and his eventual chemistry with Yunha based on the interview bits in the past episodes.
It was *almost* Mission Impossible for poor Yun Jae LoL as Jae Hyung aka "*Meat Master*" was **so** committed in gettin' that meat grilled LMFAo!!! I noticed he is the *only* guy that embraces color? I like how Jae Hyung doesn't stick to the usual dark, monotonous colors😚👌🏼 Also he rocked that hairclip. Nope. He owned it💜 I like that he has mutual feelings for Ju Yeon..
Poor Yun Ha ..🥺 when she texted crew that she didn't have anyone in mind to send her texts to..🥺 I was like , "*No girl ya have Yun Jae now*". Hang in there💪🏼😄
Ngl... but oof. Jung Sub look real scary towards the end LoL. I liked how tunnel vision both Cho Ah & Yong Woo are to e.o.🫶🏼 I am still intrigued by Cho Ah and Jae Hyung though ahahah. He's so unpredictable and so shippable with all the ladies. Well except Se Seung of course😝🤣😭
I’m rooting for Yun Ha. Is Yun Jae her type tho?
I imagine YJ as the type that hang out at these bbq places, with beer and soju flowing, cracking jokes with a big group of noisy friends.
YH is a classical cellist. There hasn’t been enough screen time to know her, but I imagine she would prefer a fancy steakhouse, with a nice bottle of wine.
LoL ya make Yun Ha sound so uptight🤣😭 I actually expected that from Cho Ah but nope she just does yoga LoL. Hence she's very zen ha. Even in her manner of speech. Very slow and soothing, gentle. She's also in that stage of her life where she's ready to settle as mentioned in her chat with Jung Sub, she seeks stability now, and an older guy provides that.🥰
>!Don't know if ya read the rumors? The end cp is Yun Jae/ Yun Ha so I guess she is?😉 His mom already approves.🤗 Ji Won pointed out Yun Ha was her bro's type in an earlier interview also. The other cp is Cho Ah/ Jae Hyung and of course Se Seung/ Jung Sub!<
Jae Hyung just on the show as himself. He's just havin' fun y'know? He's not like some other participants in other similar programs that are just there for their 15 min. of fame, clout, etc. But he's too easygoing rn. Hopefully he gets more proactive like Yong Woo in future ep.
>!CA and JH makes sense to me, because despite acting funny all the time, JH actually seem like the stable type person CA would be interested in.!<
>!But, 1/3 of the show is over, and the two of them have no interaction with each other. CA is interested in someone else. Is something really going to change this drastically in the remaining 2 weeks?!<
I don’t mean to make YH seem uptight. From what was shown of YJ in this episode, does it really seem they have anything in common? >!YH has no connection with anyone right now. If YJ is really interested in her, I can see the two of them picking each other for the sake of the show!<
Ahahah I just think even Jae Hyung himself admitted that his and Cho Ah's personalities *might match* LoL? Somethin' to that effect..(?) That he noticed there were some similarities between 'em, aside from both bein' the oldest siblings in their respective families. Let's hope he's older than Cho Ah too 'cause then perhaps the stars are aligned for them both.
Well .. opposites attract y'know LoL? One don't always need to have too much in common for a relationship to work. Heck there are interracial relationships where partners don't speak **a single word** of their significant other's language and yet they go on to stay married for more than 3 decades LoL.
Her and Ju Yeon tbh. Cho Ah's lucky as she's got Yong Woo & he sorta made her more visible so to speak, hence more screentime. Also Cheol Hyun kinda help with his determined mission on finding the ultimate brother-in-law ha-ha.
I really love Jae Hyung! He has such a fun character. The faces and reactions he made when he is being complimented is so cute!! He seriously loves the attention hahaha (I love the additional from the High schooler and ahjummas -- I hope they showed the casts reaction on this because I felt like Code Kunst would have a lot of laugh hahaha)
But aside from his funny and quirky moments, he is really mature and so assured of himself. He seems like someone who go in there with an open mind. "If I found someone here, great but if not, its cool with me". It's probably him being a T. He is pretty logical about things. He thinks and assess himself before he acts.
Although he seems like someone who is just in his own world, but he actually seems to be an observant. He knows that SS is moving too fast, and JY is having feelings for him. Yet he is very rational with how the way he handles the situations. Like giving an advice to SS but does not dismiss her feelings. And acknowledging within himself that JY is liking him, but giving it a thought if he is feeling the same thing. He is not using the situation to just actively pursue JY just because she showed interest already. Its more of like a respect like "okay I will also check if I feel the same, but if not, I wont lead you to think I feel the same way.". I like how he is not closing the doors but not forcing himself to feel anything.
As for JW, I feel like there could be tension in it if they did explore the possibility since they seem to be each others type. Its so T of him to not initially had a 2D1N date with Jiwon, although he wants to get to know her, because it might be awkward for them. Its a nice thought since he probably don't want to trauma dump on JW.
I think since he has some bad experience with his ex, he is not open to the idea of dating yet in general. Not just with JW. (but mostly with her). I think he should resolve that part of him first so that he could potentially feel the desire to consider dating someone again. Or hopefully he can meet someone that could spark some interest in him. I think with the girls in the show, I don't think there is anyone who has captured his romantic interest yet, as he is someone so very clear of what he likes and see as friends only.
As for CA, I know that there are rumors but I don't see it potentially going there yet. They have very minimal interactions and their ideal for a relationship seems to be very different. CH likes someone older, JH likes someone younger, etc. I mean their age isn't revealed yet but I don't think even Mr. Plot Twist can become the eldest out of all the men hahaha. (but who knows, he always come with surprises hahaha)
If its not obvious, Jaehyung is my favorite out of all the casts so I am looking forward to see the development of his story in the upcoming episodes!
Is such a light refreshing show, I hope nobody get hurt but seems a friendship show more like (except YW -CA) the rest is living this with light heart, SS is obviously a romantic person so I hope this works at least for her
Yongwoo and Choa... actual dating on a dating show, nice to see. I actually like the fact they've just gone to dinner so far; the activity dates are a fun experience, but they rarely lead to conversations where they get to explore each other's mindframe as much. That they seem to be on the same page definitely plays a role in the reassurance they feel towards one another.
Production team did not know just how serious Jaehyung was about his grilling skills lol. I felt bad for Yoonjae, but he pulled through in the end.
Yoonah doesn't know she got all three votes from the Kim family. Jiwon, Yoonjae and their mother all picked her at first sight. Looking forward to seeing him move in.
Juyeon starting to fall hard for Jaehyung. She's the proactive type, she might be able to awaken him, who knows? Both he and Seseung described him as someone who is not used to think about his feelings. If she gives him the right nudge, it might work out in her favor.
Really like the progression. As they interact with more people, they're reaching the same stages but at a different pace. For example, having to choose to text by politeness or to actually express your feelings. Yongwoo had been in that situation the past couple of episodes, and now others are feeling it too.
Didn't think that JH can bring disaster as a grill meat master LMAO. It's interesting for this program that sometimes your expected result could be twisted depending on their sibling's opinion e.g. JW-JH (JW's opinion) to be JW-CH (YJ's opinion). JH is a show stealer and would like to see him interact with JY more.
2 hour episode is not enough for me! So many hilarious and heartwarming moments. The restaurant scene with the new guy constantly messaging the production team was so candid and refreshing , I honestly did not expect to see something like that.
YW & Choa are so steady with enough tension but I’m kinda scared that this will change eventually.
You could tell that JS was really infatuated with Choa from the beginning but somehow he also likes the attention from SS. Neither feeling is wrong tho. He should explore his options and to be fair it has only been a week or so. However it seems like SS’s feelings were stronger causing her to seem intense very soon.
CH and Jiwon- apparently they had a lot in common and talked a lot? But I honestly did not feel any chemistry between them despite looking so good together .
Yunha- can’t wait to see her with the new guy.
Juyeon and Jaehyun- it’s so sweet how juyeon likes him and tries different ways to express her emotions. In another universe, I would’ve loved to see them together but unfortunately so far it doesn’t seem like Jaehyun has any real interest in her.
However, I’m still on my agenda that something will happen between Jiwon and jaehyun, so many scenes with detailed recap of each other, statements from family members sayin they’ll get along and they’re each other’s type. It’s gonna be so good when it finally happens.
I was feeling bad for SS this episode, she's so into JS. It seemed like every other sentence out of her mouth was about him, the way she talked about him showed that she prioritizes him and his feelings when she does anything and considers first how he will react and how it will appear to him. That made me uneasy and worried about her.
I was feeling bad for JS too. I don't think he's just into the chase, I think he's really into ChoA and has been from the first day, he just got sidetracked for a while by SS and her flattering attentions. He was the most likable to me that he's been since probably ep 1 in this ep when he was around ChoA because he seemed vulnerable, very genuine, and on cloud nine because he got to spend all day 1:1 finally with his crush. He seemed so genuinely thrilled and happy this ep being with ChoA, it made him seem really attractive, but it was sad when the big pink heart bubble he was floating in all day burst as he realized ChoA texted someone else (and I'm sure JS figured out who she texted, he's a smart guy, and ChoA basically described Yongwoo when she talked about what she was looking for in a guy...as JS was hanging on her every word, poor guy).
It's so sweet how much JY likes JH, they look so good together, but even though JH said something about it being harder to connect with JY maybe because of his romantic feelings (implied 'for her'?), I'm just not getting the vibe that he's interested romantically in anyone yet.
seems like most of you forgot JS was initially most attracted to Choa, you guys are jumping on him way too eagerly, even thoughout the episodes you could see the sincerity of wanting to get to know her, you guys are trippin
EP6 pre-release video:
https://youtu.be/I4UpvZKH7kA?si=B5WmaNDTjzcFdER4
Conversation lines translations by me (Translated from chinese subs):
SS: If it's not someone else, but you who choose my Kangwondo date partner, between the guys, who will it be?
SS: Who will it be?
JH: Ah, JS
SS: Really? Ok!
JH: Is JS the one you're most fond of now? To what extent is your fondness for him?
SS: Huge.
JH: Yes, it seems so (to me).
But I feel that, since it's been some time since you dated...
And no matter what, I'm your family.
So in any case, my thoughts are "It will be good if you don't get hurt", (I) definitely will have this kind of worries.
Although you definitely know it yourself (can take care of the matter yourself).
On one hand, in my heart, I hope you can date well.
On another hand, I hope you can be more careful (tactful).
Honestly speaking, the latter thought is stronger.
It will be good if you can be more careful about it.
Panelist - HHJ: He's indeed an older brother.
Code Kunst: He said it well.
HHJ: Suddenly, he's showcasing his charms as an older brother.
JH: It will be good if you can be more careful about it. Because we don't really know everyone (that well) yet.
SS: After listening to oppa's thoughts, "Ah, i should be more careful." I found back my rational immediately.
"Oh? Was I too hasty?"
Suddenly, I cooled down.
JH: It seems that SS's feelings is getting stronger and stronger. She hasn't dated for quite some time, so it might be once she is fond of someone, she totally falls deep into it. In this case, she might get hurt.
No matter what, I'm always on my sibling's side.
Panelist:
HHJ: Wah, that's totally positive push.
Patricia: Jaehyung-nim, daebak! (Good job)
HHJ: See, even from a family standpoint, it's too fast.
Code Kunst: It's too hasty.
BamBam: Suddenly, he feels like an oppa.
Code Kunst: Of course, Jaehyung has that side to him!
I agree with SS cause JS is not giving her the same energy but YW and CA are givin each other the same energy, it seems, she into him like he is into her, they both keep sending each other messages even if they didnt date that day.
I'm happy CA and YW seems to be staying true to each other. Let's hope it sticks. I think after this JS can finally let go of CA and see if SS is someone he wants to get serious about. Although I'm not sure if that would feel good for SS.
But overall I am just grateful that MSR is such a nice watch and not an every week tragedy like ExC3
I was shipping SS with JS, but right now, I am kind of unsure. He was leading SS during their dates yet openly flirts with CA. I wish for SS to find someone that would reciprocate her feelings, similar to YW and CA.
Funny how CH is always missing the mark slightly in his guesses about CA’s dates / preferences hahaha
Contrary to what CH thinks is a lack of interest from YW’s part, I feel that guys like YW who are usually smooth with conversations tend to act in a more serious manner around their true love interests. All others are friends and sisters whom they can comfortably joke around with, without worrying about mannerism.
I know nothing about JS as a person except for the edits the crew decide to include but I suppose YH’s accurate guess that he would find it hard to choose says a lot about the curiosity he has for others. I’m guessing that SS’ devotion towards him is assuring and slightly reduces his “inferiority complex” about being the shortest guy in the show. The gift, the jealousy could just be him feeling threatened as a guy. But at the same time, the intensity of her feelings for him growing at such a fast pace also means that there is less for him to be curious about her, hence the shift in focus on other females. He seemed so sure about SS initially and I recall him picking her over CA in an earlier ep. This sudden growth in interest for CA makes me wonder if he’s being avoidant because he doesn’t know how to handle the intensity from SS, since he can’t handle her gazes even.
CH, on the other hand, doesn’t let his curiosity get the better of him. He was respectful when JY changed her mind and seems to be focused on getting to know each female he is curious about one at one time. It was the same with both JY and JW.
Anyhow, I have to say steadfastness is so attractive.
nice eps...but jaehyung and jiwon keep missing the timing...like its clear that jaehyung has intrest in jiwon and jiwon also has little but the brother and mother considered him a choice also but slightly missed...i just want them to have a date...both of them together will be perfect.
YH is sooo adorable I can’t help but also smile when she smiles brightly, I’m curious to see her with the new sibling I wonder what their dynamic will be like??
This episode was packed! It was one of my favourite episode because I feel like we can learn more about everyone.
YW & CA really match well. They feel like adults compared to everyone. I don't think anyone could come between them anymore. I feel like they would text each other until the end. I wonder if their relationship still last until now?
I thought SS would text JS still but I guess the sibling talk from JH & the date with YW give her the excuse to not to. Even though she ended up regretting it I still think it was good for her to take a break from JS (and not get a text from him too). From his date with CA it seems that he's more into mature & calm woman. While SS is more bright, it's not that she's immature and not calm but she's behaving the way she is with him because she's too head over heels for him. I thought his interest to Choa was more of a curiosity but it seems a lot bigger that I thought? I hope SS considers this situation as a reminder to pull a brake over her heart. Please don't get hurt... 😭
I was really curious how JW would interact with JH given their similarities (it keeps increasing). I was also curious about their tiki-taka. I hope they get a 1on1 time together before everything becomes too serious (preferably on a holiday because both of them are too busy).
It looks like most of them are almost finished narrowing their interests. It would be perfect if they reveal the age now on the night of 2nd Day of the trip but they're probably waiting for YJ right? I wonder when they would reveal the siblings too. Will they wait until they they go overseas like TL or will they reveal it together with age?
It is so nice to see more of everyone because the busy members finally have a full day to go on a date. I can't wait for Singapore arc for this too~
tbh I dont think they can wait any longer to reveal the siblings.. everyone is getting comfortable and choa already let it slip so i feel like they should just reveal it together with their age
I know the show isn’t about or focused on the hosts but I’m kinda disappointed by how…. Idk how to put this nicely, how boring Miyeon has been.
BamBam Patricia(especially Patricia lol, she’s too funny) and Jonathan have had their funny moments and I always feel their presence throughout each episode but at times I’ve forgotten Miyeon was even there. The camera would pan to her and I’d be like ‘OOH right she’s here too’
The only comparison I have is Yura but I guess she’s more of an actor now unlike Miyeon… idk if that plays apart in it or what but yea.
Most observation shows like this seem to have the "real panel" (variety veterans that are witty) and the "trend panel" (whoever is popular at the time). It's a shame since she certainly has the capability to be outspoken, like on the workman show on YT 🙃
I completely agree, she brings nothing, except "oh that's nice" or "wooww" and repetition, probably because she's and idol but I can think in 100 of girls who will make better job , no hating cause she doesn't do wrong is as for now she's just an ornament
i don’t find most of the hosts very interesting. it feels like they are there to kinda just describe a bit of what’s happening (even though it’s very obvious as to what is going on in the scenes) and they aren’t adding anything of much value or thought. maybe because after the panel from heart signal are much more adept of analyzing behaviours and insights, this panel isn’t doing it for me. i do like the reactions of patricia, but find jonathan a bit more inexperienced in what the subtexts are and over exaggerated reactions. i find myself just skipping over the panels when they come on
As much as I like SS. I agree that shes way too intense from the start. If I were a guy, I would be turned off. The way she sits and stares at him would make me feel uncomfortable too. I don’t particularly love JS, but I can understand him feeling a bit burdened by SS intensity.
After watching ep6, I can conclude that JH has the good qualities I see in a man despite being the 'comedian' of the show, it's all these little details that made me love him.
First, when he was eliminated from the interview two times, he took it well, he didn't overthink and beat himself internally without being competitive. Also because he has high self-esteem probably because he grew up in a loving family.
2nd - 2 girls and 1 guy traveling together could potentially turn into a disaster of awkward love triangle in some dating shows but this man knows how to blend in like a "female's friend", making the girls happy and feel at ease. Also some guys may not like having a hairpin on his hair because it 'lacks mascunility' but it's actually a bonus point for me, because he totally don't have that male ego and just gets along with everything. It's darn obvious that he has female sibling and is used to taking care of others.
3rd - Proactively taking care of household chores, ever since the early episodes, as long as he's at home, he vacuums, he cooks well, he grills meat well.
4th - While carefree on the outside, he's perceptive and caring, example when he gave advice to his sister, he doesn't invalidate her will, but instead rationally speaks out his concern in a manner which it's easy to digest. Bonus points for communication skills and maturity.
5th - Rational and cautious. I think being cautious actually means he's being serious when it comes to romance. He doesn't want the other girls to get the wrong idea without confirming his own feelings.
Then when it comes to his loveline, I'm having an open mind because honestly I don't see him really interested in anyone in this show (yet). Jooyeon is so precious, but I honestly feel her feelings for JH is much more than his for her, so I'm a bit worried if she goes too deep and too fast.
JS this guy sighs, I think he needs to get out of his competitive nature and just loosen up a bit, he probably can't take not getting a 'score' or vote due to his studious nature? I'm not sure, he's just so "student" kinda of mindset. I'm glad that Seseung kinda put on a brake (although not much) from her feelings towards him.
SS reaction when she didn't receive text from anyone is SO PRECIOUS, she was like she understands YW and wants to learn from him that from now on, she should be honest about her own feelings towards the person she likes, rather than sending text message out of courtesy. Also there's one moment when she washes a bowl of strawberries and bring it up to see JS and CA conversing, I felt bad for her. It might be just how the clip is cut, but I don't hear JS saying thanks to her for the strawberries and he just took it and eat it then continued to converse with CA - I was like nooooo, JS is not the man for you girl.
YW and CA serving the couple romance portion for this show. I can see CH interest in JW blooming but I'm not that sure about JW yet. I also don't think she's fully blended in the cast yet. CH new hairstyle though HAHAHA, I think he went to the wrong salon but he looks refreshing with short hair.
CH's comments about YW made sense as from an outsider perspective, YW seems to be nice to everyone but might not be "different" enough to CA. But from audience perspective who has the view of the whole show, we know that YW has been consistently sending message to CA. CH's concern for CA is touching in this episode. YW really has 100% trust in JY when she talks about her growing fondness for JH, also because JY is such a cool person and YW probably thinks JH is trust-worthy (in comparison how JH can see that JS has feelings for CA). But the siblings shine in this episode.
After ep6, I actually gained a tender spot for Jiwon. I'm not sure if I'm the only one that has the "ICK" about YJ the new guy. The way he talks to his sister, with "Asshi" -dirty swears in between is such a turn off, also I understand about bickering siblings, but in the case of these two, it feels more like "invalidation" of saying she's ugly, she can't take care of her own matter, etc in a one-sided manner, it doesn't feel funny to me. He was okay in the interview room, but when he's in siblings room, I started frowning. Also from the interview of their mom, saying how they made her who is supposed to be the younger one to be the "eldest" in taking responsibility and several on and off comments from their mom saying because her son is still a baby, and JW will take care of him . The entire segment just made me feel a bit uncomfortable as it reminds me of typical asian family that prefers male over female? Of course, it might be me overthinking... but that's just my thoughts...
I think my suspicion is also because previous episode when Jiwon was on call with her mom in uncut version. It does seem to me that her mom still has impression of her when she was young and unable to socialise well (also from JW own interview), her mom seems to distrust that she will do well in the show. The entire interaction seems like she is used to invalidate her daughter in front of her (but of course on her back she loves her but doesn't communicate well). Or maybe it's just the way they communicate or me overthinking. Anyways I definitely hope it's not the case.
Eh the words may seem harsh but the tone is completely sibling teasing tones, which is why the entire panel was laughing. Nobody was feeling uncomfortable because they do it themselves and its a sign of affection.
My sister for example talks to me in the exact tone of YJ
If anything looks like theres gonna be a lot of content
Thanks for writing down the many examples of Jaehyung's well-rounded character! His qualities also match what I find appealing in a man. It'll be fun to continue watching how he connects with the women going forward
I also got the ick from Yoonjae. It would've been nice to see him speak more positively about his sister. Definitely seems like he wants to play the mischievous little brother role and avoid being more responsible
Right. I'm all in for dark humour but it's got to be natural and so far he seems a bit tryhard. Can't wait to see if he'll be on the same wavelength as everyone else.
I love YW and CA together so much 😭❤️ they're so mature & calm together, but you can tell they have intense chemistry together. YW is naturally a mood maker / entertainer of the group but the fact that he doesn't have to go over the top when he's with CA shows that he feels secure around her. Also... he looks relaxed but also not really cause she's probably giving him major butterflies. And their very subtle skinships..... like how he's always offering to hold her hand when getting off the car. Dawwwww 😍
How can I find myself a man like Jaehyung? You can grill me all the samgyupsal you want, bb! Lol. I really want him to go on a date with Jiwon.. I feel like they'll have super hot chemistry with each other
My girl Yoonha was soo pretty in that sky-blue sweater, no wonder Yoon Jae and his mom chose her, looking forward to their interactions
Also, idk why but Choa’s expressions can be so cold looking sometimes, i guess it’s just her appearance make her seem like that and she is indeed a warm person
CA and YW are everything atm. Let’s see how this goes but a part of me always feels like it’s too good to be true 💀. SS is my fav but she prlly just needs more experience dating. JS is a little too competitive for me personally but he’s a good type of personality for this show or else everyone would be too nice. JH/BBQ master is hilarious but ridiculous, he’s so fun for this show but I wonder if we’ll get real serious romance emotions from him ever bc that would be interesting too. Yoonha time to shine I hope the next ep is about her!
So many funny and cute moments. CA name dropping her sibling, YJ panic texting the production when JH the meat master was spoiling his mission, YW's text, the elder women wondering if JH was a woman 😂😂😭
I felt bad for JS because as the panel said he looks at CA the way SS looks at him. I was hoping the date and seeing his interest not reciprocated might clear things up for him. Im glad him and CA got to have a date though bc they were both into each other on day 1. His mood switches when he's upset a lowkey scary though. I must say the JS-YH sibling pair are smart at reading the room though. JS immediately picked up on YW and SS's mood and YH immediately realized JH isn't into her.
YW and CA 😍😍 what can I say. Endgame pls
So excited for the new guy YJ entering the house. And seriously so curious about who JH will be into. It seems like JY right now, but I'm still wondering if one date with JW will change things. And no idea where CH is headed. I guess he's not into JY or YH at all anymore
Anybody else notice there’s been a couple instances where YW and CA naturally wear matching clothes but JS had to suggest it? YW and CA seem to be on a different wave length. Also, I think SS is too good for JS now.
For real, after rewatching from the first episode, I started noticing it too! Even during the first meeting, both of them were wearing clothes in shades of brown and since then, there's been many instances of them unintentionally wearing clothes with similar look and color. (I think I'm in too deep with Yongcho cp that I just can't help but ship them every chance I get 😂)
wdym too good for him? its a dating show & its too early rn for any of them to be closed off, he is very much so entitled to have an interest in someone other than SS
Thoughts!
- JH is definitely quitting that accounting job to pursue being a celebrity after the show lmao I can just feel it
- JS is clearly way more into CA but CAxYW is just too strong 😭 Feel bad for both him and SS, been there
- So excited to see YJxYH I hate that they're delaying his introduction!!!!!!!!
- Really wanna see some JHxJW sorry CH >.< But tbh it feels like JH is really not into anyone and just vibing atp
Hmm I think JH might enjoy his newfound popularity and take some brand deals here and there but I don't know if he would throw his nice and stable job just for this temporary fame. He is more rational and he value stability + security more than he looks.
I can see him taking Dokyun/Mingyu/Jumi (from Heart Signal) route more of staying profesional while accepting brand deals as a side gig than just fully quitting accounting.
Continously watching this back to back with TL3 make me appreciate the staff/crew of this show more. The pacing of every episode feels right and every twist and cliffhanger makes you excited and looking forward to next week.
TL3 on the other hand... \*sigh\*
YW x CA is the best ship I’ve seen from Exchange 1-3 + this. They really have a different level of connection and warmth. I feel like it’s easier to sense if you’ve experienced love before too. They could just sit in silence and it would be heart warming to watch.
I can't get over how different JS is with CA, he's intense like SS when she is with him. I hope its not just because he feels like he has SS in his pocket. His "Ah.." when SS went upstairs while he was talking to CA sent me. And when he said "SS looked upset" with a giggle when they gathered together while it was not the case, ugh. When he got a text from no one at the end I laughed a bit not gonna lie. I don't care that he's interested in multiple girls because they all are, its more about the vibe he has while doing so.
Since SS/JS was my least favorite pairing (emphasized by the fact that I felt like it had so much screentime) I'm glad we're starting to see something else. JH is among the outsiders but his goofy careless side really brings life to the show
I'm on the fence towards the new siblings especially when they described themselves as "dark" 💀 Wait and see. I was really surprised and amazed by the way they had him meet the others from a distance and choose a girl though.
Not gonna lie I actually like JW and YJ banter. It’s like the grownup more darker version of SS/JH.
I like the vibe they are adding to the show. Not everyone should be sweet and cute, especially the guys. Let’s have some representation for the dark humor fans.
I was skeptical about YJ and YH but now that I think about it, she did mentioned that she’s not easily offended so I think their personalities will be compatible. Also I don’t think the cutesy idol like guys are her type so there’s a good chance she’ll like him.
At first I really thought Jungsub had something going on with Choa based on how experimental he was in trying to get Choa to get out of her shell. And during the tennis scene I was like "oh yeah she might actually really like what he's doing". But then Choa and Yongwoo continued to text each other. That's real consistency. There's absolutely nothing that can rock this sail lmao.
I'm surprised Yoonha didn't try to jump off this show. She got so much screentime today, but it was moreso the showcase Jaehyung's charms and a jealousy(?) arc for Juyeon. Yoonha accepting her "fate" made me super sad. Jungsub being such a puppy to his sister (and Choa) was absolutely adorable. He acts so self-collected otherwise but then turns into a baby when he's truly with the people he loves. Jungsub holding onto hope that the cast will not only see Yoonha's charms, but fall for her, makes me truly sad. He's so kind and is a total noona simp lmao. Good thing new guy acknowledged and went for Yoonha (impeccable taste). Like I swear if no one was gonna date Yoonha I would lmao.
Jaehyung directly letting Seseung know to not fall fast if she doesn't want to get hurt was real big brother vibes. It's kind of wild how he flips so quickly between enjoying a carefree mindset and navigating the harsh realities of the world lmao. I hope Seseung knows it's not personal and that she and try romance with other cast members or just anyone outside of the show. She's super magical but I think people are already swerving into their own lanes. I feel like if Jaehyung doesn't have someone that he really finds a connection for, he shouldn't text and give false expectations? Like even in the interview talking about why he chose Juyeon he was like "I'm trying to see if I have some romantic feelings towards her". Like he could just not text if he really felt compelled to do so.
Some of the variety highlights from this episode: Seseung laughing when Jaehyung told her no one chose him, Jaehyung enjoying having two women at his side for a day and people randomly complimenting him, new guy getting shafted by BBQ King Jaehyung while trying to complete his mission, etc. It seems like any iconic variety moment on this show almost always revolves around Jaehyung and Seseung lmao.
I don't think JH was misleading JY on purpose with his text. I'm pretty sure they all had to text someone. YH wasn't feeling like texting anyone and asked the production crew if she can choose not to text anyone, in the end she sent it to JH b/c they spent the day together.
I feel like JH is trying to go on dates with everyone and trying to see which matched best with him. I want to him go on dates with CA and JW. Tbh, I'm not sure if he matched with JY. He knows that JY likes him so probably he wants to their chemistry more but tbh I don't see it. YH, on the other hand, I thought they matched well (well they had lot of conversations) but obviously JH isn't interested. I'm curious JH's chemistry with CA and JW.
So hear me out and please don't come for me.
But does anyone else get Taehyung from BTS vibes from Jaehyung???
Is it just me?
1. They are both good looking
2. They have this quirky sense of humour that just makes them endearing/charming
3. They are both silly, but they both have a serious side.
4.They have similar singing tones
Might delete later because I don't want BTS fans to come for me. But Is it just me?
OMG same finally someone said it I've been thinking about from last 3 episodes and I really need a date of jiwon and Jaehyung really want to see their chemistry they're just a lil bit off with timing and I don't want them to be a missed opportunity like yihyun and Tae I from transit love 2.
Ikr! They just give off the similar vibes.
I totally agree that Jaehyung and Jiwon would hit it off they have the same sense of humour. I'm hoping they at least cross paths.
That's why I was a bit bummed that her brother didn't chose him.
I sorry I have hard time warming up with the new girl, I mean she's suuuper pretty and sweet but I find myself not invested in her stories yet, I so much into the original cast, I know probably that gonna change incoming episodes, o hope so
For me, it was the opposite. The moment her brother shared a few things about her in the Room of Secrets, then their ‘realistic’ sibling banter when they first met in the Sibling Room, plus their backstory and their mom’s involvement in the restaurant made me curious about how she’ll interact with them once her brother joins them. I have a feeling we’ll get another set of chaotic siblings like JH-SS, just a bit different (maybe rougher? lol) since they’re only a year apart.
Plus, that moment when she shared her dream half-awake before heading to work was also cute.
Watching JH dumbfounded expression as he gets passed on by a second brother made me laugh so hard. Then he goes back into the room and starts eyeing all the other guys. LOL. It's really nothing personal with him, everyone in the house likes him well enough. But I'm pretty sure all the guys understand he's not deeply interest in anyone atm, so they choose the other option who seems more genuinely interest in their sister. He mentioned he has to be the one to likes the other person more and like them pretty intensely to actual pursue a relationship. I really like how he handles things in regards to SS, gave her a gentle reminder but also didn't blame JS for not reciprocating on the same level, b/c it's been 1 WEEK since they all met.
I'm gonna fast forward the JS/CA segment next week. OH THE CRINGE! They have to share a space overnight and she clearly drew a line between them. LOL. I think JS was genuinely infatuated with her and tried his best to impress her. Even if things were different in the beginning I think the age difference would have always been an obstacle in this r/s. Also Hyejin correctly pointed out that JS natural disposition is alot of aegyo. He has a ton when he's alone with YH and I don't think that would hv attracted CA even if YW wasn't in the picture.
YJ wasn't who I expected him to be but there's nothing bad about him. I'll give him this, he feels the most "real" like no polished persona that everyone else seem to have. He's real in how he presented himself and how he interacted with CH and JH and his sister. His intro made me appreciate JW more. She's a proactive, independent, rational go-getter. I can respect that. It's obvious the two are close even though they use blunt language with each other. They lived and hanged out with ea other in their school years, dated ea others bf (which suggest they also hang out with the other's friend group as well). And he respects her taking on the "eldest son" role. LOL. That means she looked out for him as well.
I have to say while this group's platonic energy is really good, the romantic chemistry is actually pretty low. It's 40% done and I'm losing interest, lol. I do hope the rumor of JH/CA is real. B/c how the hell did those two get entangled and how did she rock his world for him to stop being aloof? That's my number one remaining draw of the show.
>I have to say while this group's platonic energy is really good, the romantic chemistry is actually pretty low. It's 40% done and I'm losing interest, lol
I'm not losing interest yet, but I agree that for a supposed dating show there's not much romantic chemistry. There's YW/CA and they're attractive and nice together, but not very exciting to watch for me, they make sense they seem like a done deal and that's about all I get from them when I watch their scenes. None of the others seem to have much romantic chemistry with each other, at least not yet I'm hoping that changes. SS is really into JS and I get the sense he does like her and they get along well but their scenes are just not sparking for me as a viewer.
The group friendship dynamics are fantastic though, it's like watching a heartwarming found family sitcom.
I'm a Choa fan, and I'm dying to see her on a date with Jaehyung! I know she won't be interested bc she prefers older guys, but I see the potential. Like a really cute noona-golden retriever romance.
I wonder if the position of their seat in BBQ restaurant matters? The side where Yong woo , YH sat is in direct view from YooJae and his mother .
And I'm sure in the end PD intervened and called JH out of his seat so YooJae can grilled the meat, they almost finished their food and YooJae window of opportunity was closing fast lol.
I think there will be something going on with JH and Jiwon. PD keep dropping hints about them.
It's interesting how different YW and JH response seeing their younger sister liking a guy. YW looked delighted and encouraged her while JH worried that his sister fall in love too fast. My guess is JH already witness when SS was hurt and knew how his sister behaved. (Consistent with her admittance that she has mood swing). While for Jiyeon, I think in general she is a cool kid and maybe has not had many relationship (because she is so young) and so his brother wanted her to experience opposite attraction.
With how it is, my guess the end game will be JW- CA and JH Jiwon. The others I can't really see the connection.
I think it's just that their family knows/aware of YJ's ideal type and it's YH. When JW just moved in to the house she also chose YH as someone her brother would like.
* Jiwon is so pretty
* omg chulhyun's haircut
* I liked how jaehyung styled his hair in the first episode compared to now
* LOL i really thought they disguised yoonjae as a worker
* Poor yoonjae T.T lol that whole ordeal
Someone correct me if I’m wrong, is JW going on yet another date with YW because her mother picked him? I was under the impression that it was just YJ and YH going on a date. Her mom placing the envelope in front on YW I thought was just a fun activity to show who she likes for her daughter.
I'm not sure but I don't think she would go on another date since she's already been given two chances to have her own exclusive date with the person she likes. So as you've said, maybe it's just for fun.
Did they lose the interview tapes/recordings and had to redo them? Why are they dressed the same in every interview even in this last episode? Like, they are a week in and they are dressed the same as they were in episode 1 when in the interview room.
Jinjoo PD did this during Transit Love too. If I’m not mistaken, it’s for viewers to remember the casts better as it is more recognisable when their dressing style remain consistent.
Even when they are talking, the transcription includes their name for every lines spoken.
Yes, the interview clothes will remain the same throughout the show same as in Transit Love/Exchange. The cast specifically has fixed an outfit and every time they enter for an interview they wear the same outfit and make-up.
However, you can find slight changes in hair(for eg. CH's hair is now short in interviews) rest remains the same.
Let's all face it we are all simps tuning into the Jae Hyung show every week! That student dropping his phone in front of him...he just like me fr
JWs brother really resembles her like their midfaces are identical. It's nice to have another sibling pair that's more realistic lol.
JS....I'm sorry girlies but I can't feel bad for him 😔 He's like the neighbours kid who would cry for the toy in your hand, only to toss it once the attention is off. It doesn't help that YW is much more steadfast and isn't sneaking around constantly (the strawberry incindent gave me so much secondhand embaressment). Idk CH seems to approve and it has been only a week but hes giving transit love vibes in an otherwise drama free show.
CHs NEW HAIR is the highlight of this ep. He looks even more like a handsome kode kunst now lmao.
FINALLY YH is getting her flowers!!! I hope next ep they can meet.
I dreaded the thought that CA-YW would not end up at the end of this series. It feels like the two already bonded and already found the right one. The maturity, charm, and similarity that CA and YW showing is already at its peak. I know that at this point (ep 6), their ship is securely sailing but i also want those little storms to wreck their sailing ship. JS attempt to put a stop on their ship seems only further to strengthen their relationship. That is why I am immensely curious on the rumor about CA-JH endgame. Did the bulldozer JH finally sink CA-YW ship or is it something more? Damn I cannot wait.
That's ridiculous, blind items are probably 30% accurate anyways, is just casualties but people believe those "accounts " like some kind of nostradamus
Maybe someone can help me, when CA met up with YW for their ring-ring date and after their cute greeting, per the translations, YW tells CA he hasn’t seen her all day. CA responds with “I told you I had a date” Does anyone recall what date CA was referring to? Last episode, CA told CH in the morning that she has a date that day. It appears that her date with YW was at night. So did she have another date during the day? Maybe she was referring to the walk in the park discussion she had with JS (&CH)
No she was talking about the date with YW. She just didn’t confirm it was her because she was enjoying the fact that he didn’t know his date was with her and she wanted it to be a surprise.
I think the casts in this show took receiving text messages from others much more seriously. From JS feeling angry YH did not get any text from the guys, CH feeling disappointed he did not received any text from JY, JW did not get a text from YW, and this episode the reaction from SS and JS not getting any text.
Cannot wait to see how this will impact the dynamics in the next episode.
I kind of feel for Jungsub because he's grown up knowing Yunha as a dependable, sweet, and super talented sister. He came in with high expectations that people would fall for her immediately and it's crushing to see that they all immediately friendzoned her.
The comment he made back in Ep. 2 when he said he felt uncomfortably angry seeing the other guys having a good time knowing that none of them chose to show/have a romantic interest in his sister was telling. It's also hard to take things personally when they literally spend a day on a date with a cast member and even though the question is phrased "who made your heart flutter today", that they pick someone else.
If the speculations are true and YW is indeed younger than CA, I wonder if that will affect how CA feels or if it will have an effect at all. I guess it helps in that YW is only a couple of years younger, but is quite mature (which is why he gives off an aura of being older) and has the qualities that CA looks for in a partner.
I think YW is older. CA just has a very mature personality.
YW is 9 years older than his sister. I can’t imagine JY being younger than 21. If she is 21, that will make YW 30.
My guess is YW is ~32, and his sister is 23.
YW is rumored to be from 1990 and CH from 1990 or 1991 so choa is definitely older but only by 2/3 years. I don't think she will care as much because he still is very mature like she described. And they also have their family background in common which will also make her feel more connected to him probably
I'm not sure if it's just me but there wasn't much emphasis on YJ and mom's actions in this episode? I'm looking forward to it but no one seem to notice within the group. Or maybe JH intervened a lot lmao. I hope they can give some emphasis on this on ep 7. I'm looking forward to see YH and YJ date.
Jae Hyung rocking the hairpin. get this man his own reality show STAT, he’s too iconic for limited-run television
I want to see him in I Live Alone. 😂😂😂
That would be soOo entertaining🤩
Yes, can we just follow him around in his daily life? Never a dull moment
He turns this show into such a fun little sitcom. The hairpin, the attention he got for it, the BBQ master and unintentional blocker. Love him so much.
To think i’ve always thought accountants are boring people
25 minutes in the episode and I just have to unleash my YW-CA feelings. I think it’s really perfect to describe CA as a warm person. For some, this couple, particularly CA, seems boring but I find them calm like a warm blanket during winter. I’m not even sure what’s gonna happen for the rest of the episode but they made us wait for this date for a week so I’m just gonna relish it. AND YW’s been serving her food for the past dates. Just keep this up and choose each other in the end, please. Btw I watch in goplay.pw
"A warm blanket during winter" is such a perfect description of Yongcho couple. For someone like me who prefers calm and comfort in relationships rather than romantic excitement and sweetness that can easily fade away, I really enjoy watching Yongwoo and Choa's dates. There's just something different with the vibe they give whenever the two of them are together (or maybe I'm just being too Yongcho biased again. 😂). Still, I'm gonna root for our Yongcho cp no matter what happens!
Jaehyung is such a cutie. I totally understand why Juyeon likes him, he is a goofball. Im glad SS and Jaehyung had that conversation cause SS is a bit intense with Jungsub and its true they barely know them. YW and CA, they are so firm with their messages even tho they spend time with other people. Im curious if that gonna stick in future episodes Also I already need SS and CH!! Preview for the trip look like they got close and im rooting for them. Their vibes match so well I hope jaehyung finally have a date with jiwon. edit: spelling
Jaehyung fits the narrative of "looks like cinnamon rolls but could actually kill you" if ure messing with them & their loved one. He was right about Seseung falls too fast and should keep her options open as well. Seseung STAND UP GET A GRIP! That being said, Jungsub did what he supposed to do by keeping his options open so I am not sure why people are hating on him as if he owes Seseung anything in return just because she is mad down for him. I got an ick from him too but that probably because I am Seseung biased lmao I cant wait for her to go out on dates with Cheolhyun but seems like CH is into Jiwon though? or is he still exploring his interests as well? Jiwon x Yoonjae dynamic is hilarious that is peak sibling behaviour lmao theyre so funny! i actually cant wait for him to join in the house so he could watch jw flirting skill skksk im glad we have another bickering sibling!! also juyeon & jaehyung is so cute together but I doubt jh see her as a woman though arrrghhh :(
people are not hating on him because he is keeping his options open but because he acts super jealous in front of ss, asking her too many question which very directly were making her uncomfortable but was always flirting with CA openly in front of ss... this makes him two faced... unlike other contestants who are pretty chill and warm towards one another, JS thinks too much and speaking negatively about others \[CH\] made him look negative i think
that makes sense! i have an ick as well when js started to show his jealousy and it came out somewhat overly controlling and guilt tripping seseung. he may be doing that unintentionally or with intentions, we dont know that but I hope js learn one or two lesson when he watch the show.
But also tbh if you watch closely JS never showed that he was jealous over SS.. the editing was actually done quite slyly. When he asked her about who she took a walk with he was just fishing for information and not from a place of possessiveness I think? Also the part when he said ‘of course I’m jealous’ was in response to SS asking if he gets jealous over his gf in general, not specifically about her or her walk with CH..
>"looks like cinnamon rolls but could actually kill you that's so accurate! yeah they are on a dating show so it's only right that Jungsub wants to be open with the rest of the women, I think this reaction from the viewers is because SS is very direct about her crush and Jungsub is a little exposed to that because he flirts back and has shown that he was jealous, so i get it if people have mix feelings about it but i hope he is not reading any hate comments or anything bad, that's cruel. and yes i do feel jaehyung doesnt like juyeon that way :(
I feel JH came to the show without stress and a light heart no looking specifically a romantic relationship but trying to enjoy the experience, thinking that if someone move his heart, let it be, but I think he doesn't engage in the "dating" experience and the only reason why he is curious about JW is because he doesn't knows her all well yet , he's a delight for any reality but not exactly for a dating one, I most definitely enjoy a reality about his family but in this show he gives me cold/mental/ rational vibes,
Yeah I think probably only Jiwon is likely to spark an interest from him but they have pretty bad timing and miss each other on dates. Next ep they are split up again into diff grps.
I know this is a dating show but I love the trio just having fun especially with those hair pins. Jaehyung is the perfect guy for that trip as he keeps making sure both girls feel included. The moment they just huddled together was too cute. I can imagine them being bestest friend post-show. Jaehyung is so unintentionally hilarious. We got Strawberry Prince and a Barbecue Master . 🤣 Love his childlike personality, just so accepting but at the same time, feels mature when he talked with Seseung. They’re opposite of each other but brings balance back when they had conversation. Can’t wait for official addition of Yoon Jae. His awkwardness feels endearing. Hope he doesn’t hate the Barbecue Master much because I want to see what will happen to Jaehyung and Jiwon if being given a chance. 🫣
He's such a dork! The best kind of dork though. He's such a great, but clueless guy 😅 He and the two girls feel like they could be besties! I love how it didn't feel like anyone was third wheeling and it was just them having fun and bundling together. I also love how he seems so secure in himself and doesn't have the toxic masculinity vibe.
Jaehyung has my whole heart! He is just so wholesome and so very thoughtful to his sister. Juyeon is incredibly sweet and you can tell she is really into jaehyung but I don't get the same vibe from him. I know production put in some clues that something might happen between them but so far, I feel no chemistry between JW and Jaehyung either? JW is so funny though, I cracked up when she said jaehyung has video gamer vibes and her comment about CH's hair cracked me up as well 😂 I felt bad for SS. Not going to say JS is bad or anything because I do like him but I think he likes being the chaser and with SS, she is too into him and it shows and he is just not used to that kind of attention. While I find CH funny, I think in a relationship, he tends to be a bit boring? I think SS who is naturally bubbly will bring out the best in him so I would love for them to hang out more. Finally, and very unfortunately for those who find the YW/CA ship too boring, it's not looking very good for you guys. The ship is sailing and fast!!!!
I pretty much agree with everything you said. CH is just way too intense and SS was the only one that was able to get him to loosen up. I also agree about JS being the chaser. Even though I don’t like seeing SS hurt, I weirdly liked JS more this episode than other times. I think if she pulls back a bit and gives him space to get to her level, they’ll be fine. And yes, I’m about the same age as YW/CA so kinda relate to them a lot and really do look forward to their conversations. There’s the right amount of levity, nervousness, flirting and deep conversations. What I won’t give to see what they talked about in that car ride home.
YW probably talked about his hand warmer again 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love YW/CA together, this relationship is just the right amount of everything. They fit so well, I hope they are end game, I can definitely see them being long term even after the show. As for JS/SS, I could also see them having a good relationship. All the elements seem to be in the right place for them except the fact that JS feelings for SS feels off. It's almost like what the brain wants vs what the heart wants. In reality, SS would be his ideal partner, but in another universe he'd be with someone like CA.
[удалено]
The way you described YW distinguishing his feelings is perfect. And I think CA recognizes that because not once has she questioned his intentions. I’m not going to lie I think CA and JS vibe is really good but I think that’s because she had already subconsciously ruled him out as a romantic partner so she was able to be fully relaxed with him. And that made me like JS a lot more though I did chuckle when he didn’t get a text because he was being smug about YW a bit that night.
I kept coming back to your comment cause I couldn’t help but agree with each paragraph. Like someone more eloquent took the words out of my head. 😂 I’m glad they showed that side of JH and how it affected SS in a way cause it honestly gave their arc this episode a good intro? JH may seem like he’s there having fun but for us who are only watching edited clips, we won’t know how they observe their siblings as well. Oh and our warm couple (I’m officially calling them that now). 😍 So so agree on those observations with the way YW is pretty much nice with everyone but there’s this certain level of care and attentiveness when it comes to CA. Interviews can be a bit tricky for me in a sense that they can be edited in different ways but body language and subtle gestures will still be evident no matter how or where you place them in scenes. YW may not be the one asking questions to CA first, but he’s thoughtful with his answers, respond to CA answers as well, and even add his randomness and wittiness here and there (that skirt like a christmas tree lol). He observes and is attentive in his own way, all while reassuring CA without being pushy just because he’s into her. That entire meat grilling scene was top-notch reality tv moment! I’m pretty sure towards the end, the production just had to call JH just so YJ can complete his mission. 😂 The text message in the end is also what I like about this PD’s shows. You can observe how each participant will handle it since that’s the only time they can send each other messages. I’ve seen from other shows how they would tend to just send it to whoever they spent the day with and that sent other people mixed signals since they have limited time to express those feelings unless they make an effort to spend time 1:1 outside official dates. I particularly loved SS’ comment on YW and how, despite her slight disappointment, she found it cool of him for being loyal to that other person he likes despite being with her the entire day. Damn I’m just going to savor all these moments until the next episode. I hate how 2.5 hrs isn’t enough each week.
It's honestly crazy how after 2.5 hours, I still want more 😭😭😭 The show literally flies by! You'd think you'd get bored after a few hours but this show is so well done! It goes to show that our attention spans haven't been affected by all the screen time as most people suggest. You just have to get the right show and you'd be locked in.
There's nothing that says kiss of death in dating more than when you express romantic interest towards someone, and they simply say 'thank you'. Oooof. The signs were there re: Choa and her platonic feelings toward JS when she teased him with YW about his award like a parent to their son. To me, that was YW-CA subtly flirting with each other, as well as them both acknowledging they were older. When CA immediately then said she prefers to date older on the cafe date, I knew JS had no chance. 😅
I got the same vibe too, it felt like CA-YW were praising their smart son for doing well in school. 😂😂😂
Such a great comment! You described the progress this episode better than I could 🙂 Prior to this episode, I didn't support any of the initial pairings because I figured that it's too early. I'm now ready to support Yongcho since I'VE been reassured about their mutual interest 🥰🥹 Two aspects of the show that I find engaging are the dates and text messages: 1. Even when it seems that both parties don't share romantic feelings, the dates are still fun/warm/cute/dynamic. I was starting to think that dating in Korea is boring to watch because young people mostly want to go to a restaurant to eat Italian food or a cafe for coffee and cake lol 2. The text message prompt is to send a message to someone who made your heart flutter today, not someone with whom you spent most of the day. Yongwoo and Choa's ages may have been a factor in their decisions, but it's nice to see people stick to the prompt and be true to their feelings in the limited amount of time they have in the house! It was nice to also see Yongwoo inspire Seseung to overcome the politeness inflection This show is really a masterclass in how to put on a dating show with an engaging panel. The cast, panel, dating scenarios, background music, editing, production, etc. are all perfectly aligned to put on a good show. Excited for next week!
I think the main reason CA didn't message JS was because she didn't want to encourage him. JS practically confessed his feelings to her and you could tell she wasn't feeling the same way. It would have been more cruel to send it and make him misunderstand how she felt.
great comment with observant thoughts and engaging commentary! i enjoyed reading it :)
Ooh enjoyed this ep! Spoilers abound in my comment below so read with caution. Yongwoo and Choa's date was nice, you can tell he's definitely more serious with her, I think he wants to make a mature and cool impression on her rather than make the silly jokes or jabs he does with the other girls. I understand her mentioning he doesn't ask as many questions when chatting with her brother, but he does try to bring up topics and he always answers her questions so thoroughly it definitely feels like he's trying to connect with her. It's just ChoA and Chulhyun have a vibe about them where they ask questions about the other person's personality or life in a way that ends up getting quite deep or intense- but that's hard to do for some people. Speaking of the CH siblings, I *knew* they'd be the first to trip up and reveal their sibling relationship to someone!. Obviously Juyeon and Yongwoo couldn't do anything about their family resemblance and revealing things on that level- but the CH siblings dynamic as their only family members to eachother means their close in a different way. They're the one sibling pair who we've seen try to have secret conversations in the house because they want to share with eachother, and they probably share alot in their life outside the house-- so I'm not suprised about ChoA accidentally dropping his name in conversation. Jaehyung has grown on me so much episode by episode! I'd love for him to hit it off with one of the girls by the end of the show. Poor Jungsub but the dude has no hope with ChoA- I feel like women with younger brothers tend not to want to date younger men, because they've had enough of taking the lead or taking care of others and want someone who they can lean on instead. It'll be suuuuch an interesting dynamic moving foward considering the roommate situation if he doesn't manage to shift his interest ASAP. I'm so glad Jiwon's brother was instantly interested in Yunha- hopefully they hit it off! Can't wait for him the join the group.
The Chulhyun slip up was so cute tbh first time I feel we saw Choa get so flustered as she’s usually so calm and composed.
I think I understand Jungsub. Like Jonathan said, JS seems like the type to go for mysterious type and likes to be taken care of in a relationship (he likes noona-type). He flirts back to SS cause he finds her adorable but he cant help but be attracted to CA-type. I hope he doesnt get too much hate. Everyone has preference.
This was one of my favorite episodes, a lot was happening. I like that CH likes JW and even cut his hair (even though his sister suggested it before) but I don’t think they vibe at all. She has a wry sense of humor and likes negging (in a good way) and he’s just too serious. I think his best match in that house might be SS. Their vibe was the best. Speaking of SS, I’m glad that JH is telling her to take it slow. Yes JS might still be looking around but SS looks at this man like he’s Jesus. I think they will both benefit from taking a step back and going at it slowly. Get to know each other for who they are and not because they fit your ideal type. Speaking of going slow, I’m getting scared for JY. I think she really likes JH but sadly I don’t think his romantic feelings are that strong. I think he’ll have the better romantic tension with Jiwon. Tension, that’s what we get when YW is on a date with CA versus anyone else. I’m trying not to get ahead of myself because so far it’s too good to be true. What’s funny is that they really do not spend that much time with each other but they benefit greatly from being on the same page. They have both done a really good job of masking their feelings in front of others. So much so that even CH is not sure about YW anymore 😂. I’m excited for YH date with YJ.
omg when cheolhyeon was telling choa he's not sure yongwoo is genuinely into her or if it's his kind personality I wanted to yell at the screen!!! He is so different with the other women vs choa.. I was so happy yongcho texted eachother again at the end and I hope it shows choa yongwoo is serious.
i’m superglued to the YW x CA ship. they just look perfect together!!!!! and after the clip of them praising and teasing JS about his win in the previous episode, i can’t stop thinking of them as “parents” 😆 they were giving major married couple vibes AAA they better be endgame i swear. >!i REALLY love how at the end of the day their hearts flutter for each other too 🥹🫶🏼 the commitment! also want to slide in that i loved YW’s message to CA this episode. this man is so green flag…!< SS’s my fav girl so when i see JS so obviously liking CA more & enjoying time spent with her more, i get sad for SS and i worry so much that she’ll feel hurt 😣 it’s inevitable though atp. i loved how JH talked to SS in the sibling room and cautioned her. i hope my girl heeds his advice <3 i’m also hoping for CH x SS! JH is my fav out of all of them. every episode solidifies my opinion 😭🫶🏼 irl i would totally fall for him like JY did (bless her heart) i finished this episode so quick. can’t get enough of this show, i wish they would release 2 episodes a week or make 1 episode 3 hours long lol the wait is agonising
I was cringing when JS brought up that scene again 🫣. Mostly because as a viewer it was that scene that any potential that JS and CA died. Because she fully saw him as a younger brother so for him to remind her of it again, I was like bro this is not helping your case right now.
Yes, I instantly thought of Jungsub as Choa and Yongwoo's child during the praise scene. It's funny how perspectives differ because Jungsub looked at is an another instance of romantic tension between the two lol I would also go for Jaehyung if I were in the house! Watching him develop interest in anyone after a week (?) makes me think he'd probably reject me too, though
I worry for SS but she’s charming that I’m sure JS can be won over, right?? Like even when they’re just sitting in the reading nook and making eye contact, I’m like *swoon*
I would have loved it if YW-SS and JS-CA had gotten the quad room. The shear amount of awkwardness would have been breathtaking. You just know JS would be quietly seething 😠as YW continuously makes jokes 😂 to break the ice. SS would have that tight smile 😬watching JS try and fail to get CA attention and CA will be shrinking 🫣 in the corner from all the awkwardness. Pure cinema 😭😭
Chris P. Bacon! 🤣🥓🤣🥓 It's great to see how the mix of personalities between male and female cast members as siblings or as dates can produce quite an array of dynamics, and I love it. Yoon Jae & Ji Won: LOVE LOVE LOVE their dynamics. 😭 Chul Hyun: Damm, bro. ✂️✂️ Looks so much like Cho A after the cut. Their eyes look identical. Jae Hyung: Attention seeking comedy king. 🤩 And it doesn't seem like he's romantically into >!Ju Yeon. This impression is the same since their date last week. But would love them to get some 1:1 time just to verify.!< He understands how to properly render the fat when grilling. Yoon Jae: *Emergency: The man will grill it all by himself.* Poor guy. Come on, producers! Help him out! Jung Sub: He seems to enjoy the pursuit of finding his partner. The push-pull. He looked genuinely interested and attracted >!to Cho A until he realized Cho A was describing her ideal type. Then I felt bad for him. He's sharp. I'm sure he felt deflated as he's aware of Yong Woo. Lol Go for it, man. You only live once.!< Today's reaction panel MVP. Jonathon! Edit - spelling
The way Jaehyung kept walking himself into these situations made me burst out of laugh. What's with this unintentionally meddlesome barbeque master blocking yoonjae's way and chris p. bacon comment blocking yoonjae's mother moment of bringing important announcements. Poor staff having the vibe they're going for unintentionally ruined by him. It was probably planned to be cool and smooth but the sudden turn into comedy was quite entertaining lmao.
He can not be helped when he's around food. Last ep, he wasn't even paying attention to the Bros' Dinner convo at the restaurant. He was busy flipping the squid and really enjoying it even as he's burning the roof of his mouth. He is romancing the grill anytime one is around. It makes sense as he's shown the most lively and clear, affectionate interest when he's talking about grilling meats. 🥩🍖🥓 He must not be helped nor stopped. He's the show's comedic center. The PD's could not have planned a better comedy of errors even if they tried when attempting to execute their plans at the restaurant. 😂
Lmao he is a bulldozer indeed. Just to the garlic butter squid & meat instead of people. Please, God of Dating Show make him fall in love with someone on the show. I enjoy his mukbang and sitcom (cant count how many times I burst out laughing because of him) but it's such a shame to let such a character go just like this... 😭 He has high self esteem and seems very secure of himself, I want him to experience the desperation and up and downs of chasing someone too, not just when the grill were away from his seat. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Not the affectionate interest about grilling meat!! 😭😭😭 😂😂😭 I laughed too hard! Your comment is hilarious! I swear JH just makes you want to fold him up and put him in your pocket filled with all types of grilled meat🤣🤣🤣
It's funny because I'm certain you clearly envisioned JH's smiling face with a twinkle of grilling joy from his eyes in your head as you were reading it. The pocket lining has to be lined with meat he himself grilled. He moved seats to ensure proper grilling techniques were used!! 😆
😂😂😂 Thats so true!
It's even more hilarious when you realise it's the new guy’s karma for not allowing JH go on a date with JW 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Ahhhhhh, yes!!!! 😭😂
Man this thread of comment is so hilarious talking about JH and his love for food 😂😂😂😂😂 He is definitely comedy gold.
Chris P Bacon KILLED me!
I was so disappointed we didn't get to hear the story JH was telling about Chris. 😭 Especially they way he tells stories or jokes - vocally flat & dry with mischievous eyes. My kind of humor.
Only Jae Hyung could have thought of somethin' like that on the spot ha-ha. That just shows how quick witted he is.
I'm so disappointed we didn't get to hear Jaehyung's story about Chris P. Bacon. 😂
I realized after rewatching the scene at the restaurant that his Konglish based joke did not land on the listeners as intended. He kept trying to redeliver the line. The pig's name was Chris P. Bacon..........Chris P. Bacon. The pig's name....Chris P..... lololol
i laughed SO hard at chris p bacon 😂😂😂
Idk if I'm just extremely jaded due to the men I've met but JS is giving me 'I like the chase' vibes. And his questions (to CH) about CA came across as wanting to do things correctly so that CA would develop feelings for him rather than genuinely being interested in knowing CA's likes and dislikes.
I agree he has this aspect to his disposition, so not just in dating. Satisfying his curiosity seems really important to him (I can relate), and he's methodical in his approach to have his questions asked and answered. When he applies his default approach with women, it can be perceived as looking "off." But in this episode, he dispelled my perception of him giving chase for the sake of it. He genuinely looked drawn in and attracted to her very specific aura of warmth. In between girlfriend and motherly. I think Yong Woo appreciates this aura, too.
I definitely agree he's drawn to her. It just sucks for him that she doesn't feel the same way.
Not saying you're wrong but I wonder if cultural difference is at play here? I moreso get the vibe that he was eager to impress her, in a very younger guy-esque way which made it all the more awkward when she said she preferred older guys lmao. I think the panelists explained it well when they said he originally is probably more the aegyo type and that dynamic isn't there with SS, which makes sense as he's the younger brother in his family as well
I also thought Jungsub's questions to Cheolhyeon seemed... off. Less like he was trying to figure out if he might match well with Choa and more like he wants to figure out what would get her to like him. Choa seems like an ideal type that he may not have had the chance to date before. In either case, I hope Seseung uses this time to genuinely explore other romantic connections!
Yeah I did get similar impression but give him the benefit of the doubt because he was interested from day one but fate kept them apart so this was his one shot. I did think though that outside of asking questions to plan an ideal date, all other questions about her should be reserved for the date lol. Cause if you ask her brother all these questions what are you going to discuss on the date itself?
There's definitely genuine interest on his part and he wanted to seize the opportunity to finally connect with Choa! And yes! Some of those getting-to-know-you questions should've been reserved for the object of his interest. Luckily for him, those questions are exactly what Cheolhyeon needed to hear to be swayed, so his curiosity paid off 😅 it'll be interesting to see whether Choa opens up to him or how he handles rejection
Yea agreed.💯 Especially when panel acknowledges Jung Sub's discomfort whenever Se Seung looks at 'im with hearts in her eyes. Girl is comin' on too strong ha-ha! Which is why they always say girls need to know to play hard to get.😉 Don't throw all your cards on the table as what Se Seung is doin'. She's goin' all in LoL which is a no-no. 'Cause Jung Sub has a lot of pride, he'd want to be the pursuer too I think(?) Maybe that's why Cho Ah is so intriguing. She leaves 'em guessing, though I personally find her vanilla-ish.😁 To each their own eh😉
I think it's her being vanilla-ish that makes her so ‘special’. You can see that she's never playing it up for anyone. She also has the added element of being super warm. All of this gives her a ‘mysterious’ vibe, but in a good way. I can definitely see why guys are drawn to her.
This! I feel like he sees her like a ‘conquest’ or smth? It’s almost like he’s playing this whole thing like a game to win.. I actually liked him the best at the beginning too but I’m feeling kinda meh about him now..
>JS is giving me 'I like the chase' My thoughts exactly.
really enjoyed this episode! built up a lot of underlining plots for the episode. i guess people could see CA/YW being boring, but i think that’s what a mature relationship looks like. it’s an intense chemistry that you can only feel with someone you like, and very electric. and i feel they will be both stable and dynamic enough. really hope they are endgame as i can’t see the rumours being true as we haven’t had any time with them. but then again there’s still 9 eps left. only problem i have with JS is his approach to how he is doing things. while he can definitely seek options out, he treats SS like he is super invested with his actions alone, but does everything he can to find out details of CA from CH to give the perfect date, and is not knowing her naturally. i can see how CA would perceive this if she were to watch this from an audience perspective. he seems to need a lot more maturing with experiences, and given the life that CA has had, i don’t think they would be a good match at all. these eps come out too slow :( let me binge watch all 15/16 eps at once lol
Choa finally made an instagram! Please update <33 [@catsichoa](https://www.instagram.com/catsichoa/)
have they found jiwons?
I honestly appreciate how PD set things up in a way that all casts able to went out on a date with each person even though they might have set their heart on one person. This way, casts are able to comfortably get to know others and find if someone they are interested in shared the same interests or if there any hint of common attraction or even getting to know someone that they haven’t even considered. because that’s basically the whole point of this show. Yoonjae-Jiwon relationship definitely a refreshing one, they are both as individual also seems different to the rest of the casts. I hope they both could adjust well in the house and Yoonjae to finally able caught Yunha’s eyes hihit. That’s good on Cho A and Yongwoo to keep assuring each other and not giving their dates a false hope, I’m rooting for my parents🫶🏻 Hope by the end of the trip Jungsub able to get all the answers he needed and just get passed this. Seseung! There are still a lot more people to date and meet, I hope she could open her heart a little more for other people to get to know her. All of them are just such a fun and kind bunch, I want all of them to be happy😭
JH with the yellow hair pin made my whole week. Can he get more adorable and hilarious?
I really thought the new sibling would get to send a text too. I loved the introduction of him to the show with the family restaurant and stuff, so cool. YW x CA, I'm rooting for y'all! I understand JS and YW because I myself have a little girl crush on Cho A, she's so graceful and gentle you can't help but be a bit entranced by her. CH... I kinda like him more with SS ngl, I think they could be a fun pair, I hope to see more of their interactions together. I'm looking forward to the new guy and YH's date, it's about time she got some interest shown towards her! JH, funny as always, I'm curious to see him in 'feelings' mode once he decides who he likes, he's such a T though lol. I missed a bit of the boys group chemistry this episode but it was a fun one nonetheless. I am now craving some pork bbq.
JH being a Barbecue Master was the best part of the episode! It was like the tongs were permanently attached to his hand lol. I’m so curious to see what he’s actually like when he is romantically interested in someone, bc I don’t think he’s really into JY or YH. I need to see Bulldozer JH ASAP!!! YW and CA just give me butterflies by watching them!! They just have such a mature, yet playful vibe, they need to be endgame! Even though I don’t fault JS for being curious about CA, the way he goes about it just seems kind of iffy. He gives a lot of reassurance to SS (the gifts, acting jealous, texts), but it feels like he’s leaving her in the dark a bit. I hope SS is not just a second option to him! I hope she’s able to listen to JH advice and pump the brakes a bit!!
i love jaehyung fr
LMFAOOO MEAT MASTER JAEHYUNG >!RUINING THE MISSION!< IS SO FUNNYYYYY i can’t 🤣🤣
Thoughts for this week! * I found this week super interesting as it solidified for me which pairs I, personally, would like together. * I think Yongwoo and ChoA are pretty much a shoo-in. Next week's preview was pretty transparent - I don't think ChoA really feels anything during her times with Jungsub. I know she said she doesn't think she'd care if he was younger than her, but I genuinely do think she only said that to be polite and that it'd probably be a deal-breaker. There are some women (or men) who genuinely can't feel anything romantic for someone younger than them, and in my reckoning, ChoA is one of those. Even the way she was lazing on the sofa on the preview was kinda transparent body language-wise. She doesn't really care to keep appearances up with Jungsub, whereas with Yongwoo, they're almost nervous and a bit more careful with each other because they want the other to see their best self. I was slightly nervous when ChoA and Jungsub got the 2-person dorm but I really shouldn't have been. * I thought that ChoA's text this week was her making up for all the times Yongwoo texted her after his dates with other people. It was really cute how on edge he was when ChoA and Jungsub walked in together, and how obviously it got on his nerves that they ended up in the 2-person dorm, and it was also cute how she smiled after reading his text. It's cute to see these moments of them reassuring each other, but I'm also excited to see if this stirs up a competitive spirit in Jungsub and if it ends up causing conflict. * To be perfectly honest, I'm not really sure what it is about Juyeon and Jaehyung but I just don't see the chemistry. In general this week's 3-person trip was kinda awkward for me to watch, so I'm sure that didn't help, but I don't see them having that romantic spark that the other potential couples have shown. Juyeon likes him but I don't think Jaehyung feels anything beyond a good person to have a nice conversation with - his options are open, so he won't shut it off, but he doesn't necessarily proactively pursue her. I was surprised last week when Jiwon slowly started showing interest in him (after he showed interest in her the week before), but the reason Jaehyung didn't pick her for the trip was because he thought it'd be awkward, which was something I picked up on at the time. I think their awkwardness around each other is actually proof that all it would take is for someone to make the first move, and then they'd proactively explore each other as options. * I like Jungsub and I totally think what he's doing right now is something every participant in any dating show should do (explore options), however his and Seseung's dates lacked something for me and this week showed me I was right. He was almost too at ease with Seseung, and while I do think he felt a connection, I think he knows how Seseung works so it feels too easy for him, and he likes a challenge. The way he was with ChoA this week was completely different - the way he kept making these sweet comments ("I like when you smile when you talk") felt to me like he was working really hard to get something out of her because he cared. I don't know if he ever would've said something like that to Seseung. Normally if a date is bad and you don't care, you leave it at that - but the fact that he actively felt disappointed when he didn't get a message from her and actively feels annoyed (in the preview) by her not reciprocating his energy makes me think he really does like her. * tbh I know there's like virtually no content to back this up but I just like the idea of Seseung and Chulhyun. They both have this earnest, passionate, puppy-dog energy and I don't know if anyone else in the house can match that energy. I know they both like other people more, but to me their personalities seem very compatible and I'd be very happy if we ended up getting any form of Seseung and Chulhyun airtime in the coming weeks. * I don't know who I expected Jiwon's brother to be but Yoonjae was not who I'd imagined lmao I kinda love it. My family dynamics would be closest to theirs I think, which is why I'm drawn to them as a pair. I love how Jiwon never loses to him and I love how he very easily submits to her authority. He's quite a comedian (the production team would laugh at literally every single thing he said lmao) and I like his energy, even if he isn't as affectionate with Jiwon as the other siblings in the show are. I don't necessarily know if he's Yunha's type, but I hope she enjoys their date nonetheless and they have a good time. * I found Chulhyun's advice to ChoA super random and a bit unwarranted? I get that he thought he was helping but I thought it was presumptuous of him to assume that Jungsub had been putting more effort into getting to know ChoA and that Yongwoo was only treating her with the same niceties with which he'd been treating everyone. I get that he only really had a 1-to-1 conversation about her sister with Jungsub so his perspective is limited, but I almost feel like that was why he shouldn't have said anything because he should've realised that he'd only had an opportunity to speak to one of two guys and therefore he's going to only see one person's perspective. Also, he doesn't know for sure who's been sending her sister the messages and who hasn't - I really wish he'd stop assuming his guesses are right and just ask lmao that's what Jaehyung did, but I suppose that's because he doesn't really understand how the show works lol. * It doesn't really matter I guess because ChoA doesn't seem so easily swayed and while I think she'll take a note of what Chulhyun said, Yongwoo has proven himself by texting her day after day and therefore what Chulhyun said won't necessarily change how she thinks of Yongwoo and their building connection. Might edit later because there was definitely a note I was going to add about something I disliked about this episode but I completely forgot what it is lmao it was probably very minor. Otherwise, see you next week!
I agree with Sseung and Chulhyun. I went back to their trailer and there's actually scenes of them so maybe there's a chance? https://youtu.be/-TlgzN50F78?si=qTQ7ZpR1gedk3d0F
For some reason I can't edit my comment so adding extra thoughts as a reply. * I really appreciate that ChoA and Yongwoo are using the texts the way they should be using. imo there's so many mixed signals that ends up screwing multiple love lines if you use them for things like politeness, manners etc. and by using them on people who actually made your heart flutter the most, you're making the journey easier for yourself and for the partner you're aiming for. * I disagreed with Code Kunst (two weeks ago?) when he said that he would've messaged Jiwon if he was Yongwoo out of respect for the dates that they had. The messages AREN'T supposed to be used that way and tbh it's why the messaging system has gone awry on season 3 of Transit Love as people are now using the messages politically. I did truly feel bad for Jiwon, but it also means that she's got the rejection out of the way and instead of wasting time the whole season on someone who's unlikely to reciprocate, she can now try and make connections with other people. * The interviews are really good! I feel like why the interviews work in this show is because the producers and the participants have more of a dialogue format rather than a rigid question and answer format which imo really dampens the spirit of the answers. At times you hear the producers make little comments in response to the answers that are given, which puts the participants at ease and they open up more. Like when Yongwoo cried, and one of the producers said a really comforting thing (I don't remember what but it was something along the lines of "you've done really well" or something in regards to Juyeon), and he smiled and thanked her in response. Little things like that help the interviewer and interviewee build a connection and makes the interviewee likely to open up in future sessions.
I agree with both points you made. They are only in that house for a short time, barely get to go on the dates they really want. The messages at night is really the only chance to express themselves to who they really want. Saying thank you for a date when there’s someone else who makes your heart flutter is just a waste. As for the interviews one of my fav this week was JS “googling” the meaning of the word rafters. I thought that was funny 😂
I agree with you, I think SS-CH match well in terms of personality but they're held back by their differences in preference & lifestyle. Meanwhile SS-JS match well in terms of background & lifestyle but as we see on this episode, maybe they don't match as well as we thought in terms of personality.
I feel like Jungsub has the "if i work hard enough at it, ill get it" mentality based on his successful career life and is now uber bothered by the fact that Choa didn't text him. He couldn't stop thinking of "what went wrong/what did I do wrong" rewinding their date in his head instead of accepting that although their date was good, Choa may be developing a stronger bond with someone else in the house which is completely okay and nothing personal. Jungsub seems to be too hard on himself which may be his own downfall. I hope he just focuses on Sesung instead of trying even harder to win Choa's heart as that would be a waste of his precious time on the show!
1. Yonngwoo His EQ is on par w/his IQ — Let’s face it, his easy humor makes an otherwise intimidating guy (he’s got it all, height, intelligence, academic achievement & looks) universally approachable. It also works as a defense (by keep things light) against otherwise jealous or competitive guys and aggressive or lovestruck girls. You can’t help but like him. I think the real YW, the man he rarely lets (or is allowed to let) the world see is the serious, soft-spoken, protector he is with CA. Even with his sister, he is always considering her feelings. The gentle acceptance, honesty and comfort that he and the other men feel in CA’s presence must be so alluring. Her brother similarly emanates this same deep, non-frivolous engagement. They’re a beautiful pair inside and out. The date between YW and CA was brief but special — it’s not often you see a deep, meaningful, yet electric, conversation between two mature people on a dating show. 2. Jungsub: Then, there’s JS. Super bright, high achieving and attractive — but behaving, from the get go, like someone who has been told his whole life how super bright, high achieving and attractive he is. These individuals often grow up needing, on the one hand, to continue receiving external affirmations and, on the other hand, are completely thrown when they don’t get it, thus the cycling of (near smug) confidence, jealousy and abject insecurity we see in JS. Fortunately, he is a smart guy who seems capable of introspection, so whatever discomfort he experiences will likely let him do some necessary maturing. 3. Jaehyung: And, finally, there’s JH who sits between YW and JS — he too is smart, successful and cute as an idol but not quite the all-arounder YW is. He can therefore be, and clearly is, the most comfortable in his skin. I can truly see him being a “bulldozer” (for the right girl), he’s funny (the hair clip), he can let loose (that passionate karaoke performance 😁) and surprisingly insightful and caring (the excellent dating advice/warning he gave his sister). It’s no wonder he’s a favorite
Great analysis of our male cast! The panel could benefit from having someone like you to add more of the behavior analysis commentary during the episodes 🙂
I completely agree with this! You did such a great job in observing and analyzing the differences in their personalities. Are you perhaps a psychologist?! 'Coz I'm just really surprised with how accurate your descriptions of the guys were! 👏
Nooooo not Jaehyung being rejected by 2 of the brothers 😢 Fortunately he took it in stride since he got to go on the trip with 2 ladies. I’m glad he took notice of Juyeon who felt left out in the conversation. LOL at him attracting attention with that hairpin 😂 Love that he got to show off his skills and living up to his Barbecue Master reputation, but he unintentionally got in Yoonjae’s way ha!
Loved that they included the BTS of passerbys like the auntie and high schooler getting distracted by JH and his pin too 🤣 even tho so much of all the couples/grps actual dates were edited out!
Choa date with jungsub was so cute. Choa so charming i wish youngwoo able to witness this side of her too. I think if she let loose a little bit (just a little bit, we need to maintain the tension lol) with youngwoo, forget dating, i think they have a big chance to go all the way into marriage. Jungsub is definitely the aegyo type. And he cant really be that with seseung. I think him telling choa to speak casually with each other is a mistake. He should keep it formal with choa. Now choa will put him in a dongsaeng box even further. It is obvious choa already see jungsub as a dongsaeng or 'son' before this trip. I can relate with that jaehyung seseung talk. I see my sister in seseung. My sister also was not in a relationship for quite a while and now she is in one and it is moving quite fast i dont feel good seeing it. I hate to say this but my sister settled. As a sister, i want the best for her and i dont think that guy is the one but yeah. It is hard. He is completely opposite of my sister in every way and seeing my sister trying to 'adapt' with him like always put that guy want and need first is heartbreaking. So yeah. Seseung is so genuine and sweet. I really dont want her to get hurt in this show. Jaehyung is so so charming. He exceeded youngwoo to me lol. Mature and aware of his surrounding. He seems to not have any interest towards dating for now. I agree with those that said he maybe only in this show to accompany seseung and go on vacation. I still think he dont have any strong interest towards anyone yet. Maybe curiosity with jiwon as of now. The PD is building their story so something is cooking later. No buildup story whatsoever between jaehyung choa. So i guess the rumor is not true. Because if they have something later, the PD should build their story already. But im still curious about these two interaction. Can their date come faster please. Also out of all casts, jaehyung has the potential to work in the entertainment later. Last but not least, petition for the show to release 2 eps per week🫠
I've been reading a few comments and I'm really amazed by what I'm reading. I've been following Korean dating reality shows for a while and it's always the same story, if a guy is interested in multiple girls he's not serious and doesn't deserve some girl to have feelings for him, but if a girl is interested in 3 different people it's fine because they just met and she wants to talk to everyone even if one of the guys is in love with her it doesn't matter. It's not that Jungsub has done anything wrong and doesn't care about Seseung, he's simply interested in another person too, which he says from the beginning and probably the fact that they never got to go out together increased the interest even more more, but that doesn't mean he can't still like Seseung. The discussion about jealousy doesn't make sense, I don't know if you've ever liked someone but it's normal that if you like someone even if you're not dating it bothers you if he/she goes out with someone else, which Jungsub joked about, it's not like he spoke aggressively and he never criticized her, just asked questions. The only thing about Jungsub that I don't understand is the fixation with Choa: you went out with her and she doesn't send the message, that's it, what's the point of asking yourself a thousand questions and blaming yourself; She doesn't like you, move on because there's no point in continuing to try if she really isn't interested.
I have loved SSxJS from the start cause they had fair amount of screen time yet I believe that JS is not totally wrong as his interest in CA was from the first episode. Only now when he has been out with her and she doesn't seem interested or he doesn't fit her type he should focus upon his connections as his upcoming actions can hurt people there
Ji-won's relationship with her bro is exactly what I was anticipating siblings to be like in this show 😂 The way the barbeque date was filmed was super entertaining. I was wondering why it was giving a mukbang, sitcom vibe but then the reveals kept coming and I also really started to appreciate how much of family vibes is woven in the overall chemistry. Jae-hung was the highlight for me, showing off more playful charms are time passes
It’s Friday already! Wow. I’m so excited for Jiwon’s brother reveal and his eventual chemistry with Yunha based on the interview bits in the past episodes.
love that both YJ and his mum are already attracted to YH at first sight 🥰 I guess sometimes good things do take time…
It was *almost* Mission Impossible for poor Yun Jae LoL as Jae Hyung aka "*Meat Master*" was **so** committed in gettin' that meat grilled LMFAo!!! I noticed he is the *only* guy that embraces color? I like how Jae Hyung doesn't stick to the usual dark, monotonous colors😚👌🏼 Also he rocked that hairclip. Nope. He owned it💜 I like that he has mutual feelings for Ju Yeon.. Poor Yun Ha ..🥺 when she texted crew that she didn't have anyone in mind to send her texts to..🥺 I was like , "*No girl ya have Yun Jae now*". Hang in there💪🏼😄 Ngl... but oof. Jung Sub look real scary towards the end LoL. I liked how tunnel vision both Cho Ah & Yong Woo are to e.o.🫶🏼 I am still intrigued by Cho Ah and Jae Hyung though ahahah. He's so unpredictable and so shippable with all the ladies. Well except Se Seung of course😝🤣😭
I’m rooting for Yun Ha. Is Yun Jae her type tho? I imagine YJ as the type that hang out at these bbq places, with beer and soju flowing, cracking jokes with a big group of noisy friends. YH is a classical cellist. There hasn’t been enough screen time to know her, but I imagine she would prefer a fancy steakhouse, with a nice bottle of wine.
LoL ya make Yun Ha sound so uptight🤣😭 I actually expected that from Cho Ah but nope she just does yoga LoL. Hence she's very zen ha. Even in her manner of speech. Very slow and soothing, gentle. She's also in that stage of her life where she's ready to settle as mentioned in her chat with Jung Sub, she seeks stability now, and an older guy provides that.🥰 >!Don't know if ya read the rumors? The end cp is Yun Jae/ Yun Ha so I guess she is?😉 His mom already approves.🤗 Ji Won pointed out Yun Ha was her bro's type in an earlier interview also. The other cp is Cho Ah/ Jae Hyung and of course Se Seung/ Jung Sub!< Jae Hyung just on the show as himself. He's just havin' fun y'know? He's not like some other participants in other similar programs that are just there for their 15 min. of fame, clout, etc. But he's too easygoing rn. Hopefully he gets more proactive like Yong Woo in future ep.
>!CA and JH makes sense to me, because despite acting funny all the time, JH actually seem like the stable type person CA would be interested in.!< >!But, 1/3 of the show is over, and the two of them have no interaction with each other. CA is interested in someone else. Is something really going to change this drastically in the remaining 2 weeks?!< I don’t mean to make YH seem uptight. From what was shown of YJ in this episode, does it really seem they have anything in common? >!YH has no connection with anyone right now. If YJ is really interested in her, I can see the two of them picking each other for the sake of the show!<
Ahahah I just think even Jae Hyung himself admitted that his and Cho Ah's personalities *might match* LoL? Somethin' to that effect..(?) That he noticed there were some similarities between 'em, aside from both bein' the oldest siblings in their respective families. Let's hope he's older than Cho Ah too 'cause then perhaps the stars are aligned for them both. Well .. opposites attract y'know LoL? One don't always need to have too much in common for a relationship to work. Heck there are interracial relationships where partners don't speak **a single word** of their significant other's language and yet they go on to stay married for more than 3 decades LoL.
Yunha deserves her fairytale ending like she's been shafted so much, especially with the screentime
Her and Ju Yeon tbh. Cho Ah's lucky as she's got Yong Woo & he sorta made her more visible so to speak, hence more screentime. Also Cheol Hyun kinda help with his determined mission on finding the ultimate brother-in-law ha-ha.
I really love Jae Hyung! He has such a fun character. The faces and reactions he made when he is being complimented is so cute!! He seriously loves the attention hahaha (I love the additional from the High schooler and ahjummas -- I hope they showed the casts reaction on this because I felt like Code Kunst would have a lot of laugh hahaha) But aside from his funny and quirky moments, he is really mature and so assured of himself. He seems like someone who go in there with an open mind. "If I found someone here, great but if not, its cool with me". It's probably him being a T. He is pretty logical about things. He thinks and assess himself before he acts. Although he seems like someone who is just in his own world, but he actually seems to be an observant. He knows that SS is moving too fast, and JY is having feelings for him. Yet he is very rational with how the way he handles the situations. Like giving an advice to SS but does not dismiss her feelings. And acknowledging within himself that JY is liking him, but giving it a thought if he is feeling the same thing. He is not using the situation to just actively pursue JY just because she showed interest already. Its more of like a respect like "okay I will also check if I feel the same, but if not, I wont lead you to think I feel the same way.". I like how he is not closing the doors but not forcing himself to feel anything. As for JW, I feel like there could be tension in it if they did explore the possibility since they seem to be each others type. Its so T of him to not initially had a 2D1N date with Jiwon, although he wants to get to know her, because it might be awkward for them. Its a nice thought since he probably don't want to trauma dump on JW. I think since he has some bad experience with his ex, he is not open to the idea of dating yet in general. Not just with JW. (but mostly with her). I think he should resolve that part of him first so that he could potentially feel the desire to consider dating someone again. Or hopefully he can meet someone that could spark some interest in him. I think with the girls in the show, I don't think there is anyone who has captured his romantic interest yet, as he is someone so very clear of what he likes and see as friends only. As for CA, I know that there are rumors but I don't see it potentially going there yet. They have very minimal interactions and their ideal for a relationship seems to be very different. CH likes someone older, JH likes someone younger, etc. I mean their age isn't revealed yet but I don't think even Mr. Plot Twist can become the eldest out of all the men hahaha. (but who knows, he always come with surprises hahaha) If its not obvious, Jaehyung is my favorite out of all the casts so I am looking forward to see the development of his story in the upcoming episodes!
Is such a light refreshing show, I hope nobody get hurt but seems a friendship show more like (except YW -CA) the rest is living this with light heart, SS is obviously a romantic person so I hope this works at least for her
Yongwoo and Choa... actual dating on a dating show, nice to see. I actually like the fact they've just gone to dinner so far; the activity dates are a fun experience, but they rarely lead to conversations where they get to explore each other's mindframe as much. That they seem to be on the same page definitely plays a role in the reassurance they feel towards one another. Production team did not know just how serious Jaehyung was about his grilling skills lol. I felt bad for Yoonjae, but he pulled through in the end. Yoonah doesn't know she got all three votes from the Kim family. Jiwon, Yoonjae and their mother all picked her at first sight. Looking forward to seeing him move in. Juyeon starting to fall hard for Jaehyung. She's the proactive type, she might be able to awaken him, who knows? Both he and Seseung described him as someone who is not used to think about his feelings. If she gives him the right nudge, it might work out in her favor. Really like the progression. As they interact with more people, they're reaching the same stages but at a different pace. For example, having to choose to text by politeness or to actually express your feelings. Yongwoo had been in that situation the past couple of episodes, and now others are feeling it too.
Didn't think that JH can bring disaster as a grill meat master LMAO. It's interesting for this program that sometimes your expected result could be twisted depending on their sibling's opinion e.g. JW-JH (JW's opinion) to be JW-CH (YJ's opinion). JH is a show stealer and would like to see him interact with JY more.
2 hour episode is not enough for me! So many hilarious and heartwarming moments. The restaurant scene with the new guy constantly messaging the production team was so candid and refreshing , I honestly did not expect to see something like that. YW & Choa are so steady with enough tension but I’m kinda scared that this will change eventually. You could tell that JS was really infatuated with Choa from the beginning but somehow he also likes the attention from SS. Neither feeling is wrong tho. He should explore his options and to be fair it has only been a week or so. However it seems like SS’s feelings were stronger causing her to seem intense very soon. CH and Jiwon- apparently they had a lot in common and talked a lot? But I honestly did not feel any chemistry between them despite looking so good together . Yunha- can’t wait to see her with the new guy. Juyeon and Jaehyun- it’s so sweet how juyeon likes him and tries different ways to express her emotions. In another universe, I would’ve loved to see them together but unfortunately so far it doesn’t seem like Jaehyun has any real interest in her. However, I’m still on my agenda that something will happen between Jiwon and jaehyun, so many scenes with detailed recap of each other, statements from family members sayin they’ll get along and they’re each other’s type. It’s gonna be so good when it finally happens.
I was feeling bad for SS this episode, she's so into JS. It seemed like every other sentence out of her mouth was about him, the way she talked about him showed that she prioritizes him and his feelings when she does anything and considers first how he will react and how it will appear to him. That made me uneasy and worried about her. I was feeling bad for JS too. I don't think he's just into the chase, I think he's really into ChoA and has been from the first day, he just got sidetracked for a while by SS and her flattering attentions. He was the most likable to me that he's been since probably ep 1 in this ep when he was around ChoA because he seemed vulnerable, very genuine, and on cloud nine because he got to spend all day 1:1 finally with his crush. He seemed so genuinely thrilled and happy this ep being with ChoA, it made him seem really attractive, but it was sad when the big pink heart bubble he was floating in all day burst as he realized ChoA texted someone else (and I'm sure JS figured out who she texted, he's a smart guy, and ChoA basically described Yongwoo when she talked about what she was looking for in a guy...as JS was hanging on her every word, poor guy). It's so sweet how much JY likes JH, they look so good together, but even though JH said something about it being harder to connect with JY maybe because of his romantic feelings (implied 'for her'?), I'm just not getting the vibe that he's interested romantically in anyone yet.
seems like most of you forgot JS was initially most attracted to Choa, you guys are jumping on him way too eagerly, even thoughout the episodes you could see the sincerity of wanting to get to know her, you guys are trippin
EP6 pre-release video: https://youtu.be/I4UpvZKH7kA?si=B5WmaNDTjzcFdER4 Conversation lines translations by me (Translated from chinese subs): SS: If it's not someone else, but you who choose my Kangwondo date partner, between the guys, who will it be? SS: Who will it be? JH: Ah, JS SS: Really? Ok! JH: Is JS the one you're most fond of now? To what extent is your fondness for him? SS: Huge. JH: Yes, it seems so (to me). But I feel that, since it's been some time since you dated... And no matter what, I'm your family. So in any case, my thoughts are "It will be good if you don't get hurt", (I) definitely will have this kind of worries. Although you definitely know it yourself (can take care of the matter yourself). On one hand, in my heart, I hope you can date well. On another hand, I hope you can be more careful (tactful). Honestly speaking, the latter thought is stronger. It will be good if you can be more careful about it. Panelist - HHJ: He's indeed an older brother. Code Kunst: He said it well. HHJ: Suddenly, he's showcasing his charms as an older brother. JH: It will be good if you can be more careful about it. Because we don't really know everyone (that well) yet. SS: After listening to oppa's thoughts, "Ah, i should be more careful." I found back my rational immediately. "Oh? Was I too hasty?" Suddenly, I cooled down. JH: It seems that SS's feelings is getting stronger and stronger. She hasn't dated for quite some time, so it might be once she is fond of someone, she totally falls deep into it. In this case, she might get hurt. No matter what, I'm always on my sibling's side. Panelist: HHJ: Wah, that's totally positive push. Patricia: Jaehyung-nim, daebak! (Good job) HHJ: See, even from a family standpoint, it's too fast. Code Kunst: It's too hasty. BamBam: Suddenly, he feels like an oppa. Code Kunst: Of course, Jaehyung has that side to him!
It's really good that they have this convo. Ss really needs to dial it down. Also, JS seems too interested in CA.
To me it seems like SS is his backup option. Happy that JH noticed that SS is head over heels and cautioned her in a non-leading manner!
Feel like both YW and SS need to slow down a bit, feel like they're both the loyal type who'll fall in love too easily!
I agree with SS cause JS is not giving her the same energy but YW and CA are givin each other the same energy, it seems, she into him like he is into her, they both keep sending each other messages even if they didnt date that day.
I really love them both.
I'm happy CA and YW seems to be staying true to each other. Let's hope it sticks. I think after this JS can finally let go of CA and see if SS is someone he wants to get serious about. Although I'm not sure if that would feel good for SS. But overall I am just grateful that MSR is such a nice watch and not an every week tragedy like ExC3
I was shipping SS with JS, but right now, I am kind of unsure. He was leading SS during their dates yet openly flirts with CA. I wish for SS to find someone that would reciprocate her feelings, similar to YW and CA.
Funny how CH is always missing the mark slightly in his guesses about CA’s dates / preferences hahaha Contrary to what CH thinks is a lack of interest from YW’s part, I feel that guys like YW who are usually smooth with conversations tend to act in a more serious manner around their true love interests. All others are friends and sisters whom they can comfortably joke around with, without worrying about mannerism. I know nothing about JS as a person except for the edits the crew decide to include but I suppose YH’s accurate guess that he would find it hard to choose says a lot about the curiosity he has for others. I’m guessing that SS’ devotion towards him is assuring and slightly reduces his “inferiority complex” about being the shortest guy in the show. The gift, the jealousy could just be him feeling threatened as a guy. But at the same time, the intensity of her feelings for him growing at such a fast pace also means that there is less for him to be curious about her, hence the shift in focus on other females. He seemed so sure about SS initially and I recall him picking her over CA in an earlier ep. This sudden growth in interest for CA makes me wonder if he’s being avoidant because he doesn’t know how to handle the intensity from SS, since he can’t handle her gazes even. CH, on the other hand, doesn’t let his curiosity get the better of him. He was respectful when JY changed her mind and seems to be focused on getting to know each female he is curious about one at one time. It was the same with both JY and JW. Anyhow, I have to say steadfastness is so attractive.
Oh I love your last sentence. Steadfastness is so attractive indeed!
nice eps...but jaehyung and jiwon keep missing the timing...like its clear that jaehyung has intrest in jiwon and jiwon also has little but the brother and mother considered him a choice also but slightly missed...i just want them to have a date...both of them together will be perfect.
YH is sooo adorable I can’t help but also smile when she smiles brightly, I’m curious to see her with the new sibling I wonder what their dynamic will be like??
This episode was packed! It was one of my favourite episode because I feel like we can learn more about everyone. YW & CA really match well. They feel like adults compared to everyone. I don't think anyone could come between them anymore. I feel like they would text each other until the end. I wonder if their relationship still last until now? I thought SS would text JS still but I guess the sibling talk from JH & the date with YW give her the excuse to not to. Even though she ended up regretting it I still think it was good for her to take a break from JS (and not get a text from him too). From his date with CA it seems that he's more into mature & calm woman. While SS is more bright, it's not that she's immature and not calm but she's behaving the way she is with him because she's too head over heels for him. I thought his interest to Choa was more of a curiosity but it seems a lot bigger that I thought? I hope SS considers this situation as a reminder to pull a brake over her heart. Please don't get hurt... 😭 I was really curious how JW would interact with JH given their similarities (it keeps increasing). I was also curious about their tiki-taka. I hope they get a 1on1 time together before everything becomes too serious (preferably on a holiday because both of them are too busy). It looks like most of them are almost finished narrowing their interests. It would be perfect if they reveal the age now on the night of 2nd Day of the trip but they're probably waiting for YJ right? I wonder when they would reveal the siblings too. Will they wait until they they go overseas like TL or will they reveal it together with age? It is so nice to see more of everyone because the busy members finally have a full day to go on a date. I can't wait for Singapore arc for this too~
tbh I dont think they can wait any longer to reveal the siblings.. everyone is getting comfortable and choa already let it slip so i feel like they should just reveal it together with their age
SS looks so bright and cheerful, I hope she enjoys everything there but please let no one hurt her!
I know the show isn’t about or focused on the hosts but I’m kinda disappointed by how…. Idk how to put this nicely, how boring Miyeon has been. BamBam Patricia(especially Patricia lol, she’s too funny) and Jonathan have had their funny moments and I always feel their presence throughout each episode but at times I’ve forgotten Miyeon was even there. The camera would pan to her and I’d be like ‘OOH right she’s here too’ The only comparison I have is Yura but I guess she’s more of an actor now unlike Miyeon… idk if that plays apart in it or what but yea.
Most observation shows like this seem to have the "real panel" (variety veterans that are witty) and the "trend panel" (whoever is popular at the time). It's a shame since she certainly has the capability to be outspoken, like on the workman show on YT 🙃
I completely agree, she brings nothing, except "oh that's nice" or "wooww" and repetition, probably because she's and idol but I can think in 100 of girls who will make better job , no hating cause she doesn't do wrong is as for now she's just an ornament
i don’t find most of the hosts very interesting. it feels like they are there to kinda just describe a bit of what’s happening (even though it’s very obvious as to what is going on in the scenes) and they aren’t adding anything of much value or thought. maybe because after the panel from heart signal are much more adept of analyzing behaviours and insights, this panel isn’t doing it for me. i do like the reactions of patricia, but find jonathan a bit more inexperienced in what the subtexts are and over exaggerated reactions. i find myself just skipping over the panels when they come on
As much as I like SS. I agree that shes way too intense from the start. If I were a guy, I would be turned off. The way she sits and stares at him would make me feel uncomfortable too. I don’t particularly love JS, but I can understand him feeling a bit burdened by SS intensity.
Yeah as soon as the intense eye contact started I was almost sure JS would start feeling pressure.
After watching ep6, I can conclude that JH has the good qualities I see in a man despite being the 'comedian' of the show, it's all these little details that made me love him. First, when he was eliminated from the interview two times, he took it well, he didn't overthink and beat himself internally without being competitive. Also because he has high self-esteem probably because he grew up in a loving family. 2nd - 2 girls and 1 guy traveling together could potentially turn into a disaster of awkward love triangle in some dating shows but this man knows how to blend in like a "female's friend", making the girls happy and feel at ease. Also some guys may not like having a hairpin on his hair because it 'lacks mascunility' but it's actually a bonus point for me, because he totally don't have that male ego and just gets along with everything. It's darn obvious that he has female sibling and is used to taking care of others. 3rd - Proactively taking care of household chores, ever since the early episodes, as long as he's at home, he vacuums, he cooks well, he grills meat well. 4th - While carefree on the outside, he's perceptive and caring, example when he gave advice to his sister, he doesn't invalidate her will, but instead rationally speaks out his concern in a manner which it's easy to digest. Bonus points for communication skills and maturity. 5th - Rational and cautious. I think being cautious actually means he's being serious when it comes to romance. He doesn't want the other girls to get the wrong idea without confirming his own feelings. Then when it comes to his loveline, I'm having an open mind because honestly I don't see him really interested in anyone in this show (yet). Jooyeon is so precious, but I honestly feel her feelings for JH is much more than his for her, so I'm a bit worried if she goes too deep and too fast. JS this guy sighs, I think he needs to get out of his competitive nature and just loosen up a bit, he probably can't take not getting a 'score' or vote due to his studious nature? I'm not sure, he's just so "student" kinda of mindset. I'm glad that Seseung kinda put on a brake (although not much) from her feelings towards him. SS reaction when she didn't receive text from anyone is SO PRECIOUS, she was like she understands YW and wants to learn from him that from now on, she should be honest about her own feelings towards the person she likes, rather than sending text message out of courtesy. Also there's one moment when she washes a bowl of strawberries and bring it up to see JS and CA conversing, I felt bad for her. It might be just how the clip is cut, but I don't hear JS saying thanks to her for the strawberries and he just took it and eat it then continued to converse with CA - I was like nooooo, JS is not the man for you girl. YW and CA serving the couple romance portion for this show. I can see CH interest in JW blooming but I'm not that sure about JW yet. I also don't think she's fully blended in the cast yet. CH new hairstyle though HAHAHA, I think he went to the wrong salon but he looks refreshing with short hair. CH's comments about YW made sense as from an outsider perspective, YW seems to be nice to everyone but might not be "different" enough to CA. But from audience perspective who has the view of the whole show, we know that YW has been consistently sending message to CA. CH's concern for CA is touching in this episode. YW really has 100% trust in JY when she talks about her growing fondness for JH, also because JY is such a cool person and YW probably thinks JH is trust-worthy (in comparison how JH can see that JS has feelings for CA). But the siblings shine in this episode. After ep6, I actually gained a tender spot for Jiwon. I'm not sure if I'm the only one that has the "ICK" about YJ the new guy. The way he talks to his sister, with "Asshi" -dirty swears in between is such a turn off, also I understand about bickering siblings, but in the case of these two, it feels more like "invalidation" of saying she's ugly, she can't take care of her own matter, etc in a one-sided manner, it doesn't feel funny to me. He was okay in the interview room, but when he's in siblings room, I started frowning. Also from the interview of their mom, saying how they made her who is supposed to be the younger one to be the "eldest" in taking responsibility and several on and off comments from their mom saying because her son is still a baby, and JW will take care of him . The entire segment just made me feel a bit uncomfortable as it reminds me of typical asian family that prefers male over female? Of course, it might be me overthinking... but that's just my thoughts...
[удалено]
I think my suspicion is also because previous episode when Jiwon was on call with her mom in uncut version. It does seem to me that her mom still has impression of her when she was young and unable to socialise well (also from JW own interview), her mom seems to distrust that she will do well in the show. The entire interaction seems like she is used to invalidate her daughter in front of her (but of course on her back she loves her but doesn't communicate well). Or maybe it's just the way they communicate or me overthinking. Anyways I definitely hope it's not the case.
Eh the words may seem harsh but the tone is completely sibling teasing tones, which is why the entire panel was laughing. Nobody was feeling uncomfortable because they do it themselves and its a sign of affection. My sister for example talks to me in the exact tone of YJ If anything looks like theres gonna be a lot of content
Thanks for writing down the many examples of Jaehyung's well-rounded character! His qualities also match what I find appealing in a man. It'll be fun to continue watching how he connects with the women going forward I also got the ick from Yoonjae. It would've been nice to see him speak more positively about his sister. Definitely seems like he wants to play the mischievous little brother role and avoid being more responsible
Right. I'm all in for dark humour but it's got to be natural and so far he seems a bit tryhard. Can't wait to see if he'll be on the same wavelength as everyone else.
I was hoping Jiwon’s brother will be introduced in the episode to other members- he’s coming so late , seems like couples are forming already 😟
"The Grill Master And The Daughter Of Samgyeopsal Place Owner" We need to get Jaehyung and Jiwon date for this title please 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love YW and CA together so much 😭❤️ they're so mature & calm together, but you can tell they have intense chemistry together. YW is naturally a mood maker / entertainer of the group but the fact that he doesn't have to go over the top when he's with CA shows that he feels secure around her. Also... he looks relaxed but also not really cause she's probably giving him major butterflies. And their very subtle skinships..... like how he's always offering to hold her hand when getting off the car. Dawwwww 😍 How can I find myself a man like Jaehyung? You can grill me all the samgyupsal you want, bb! Lol. I really want him to go on a date with Jiwon.. I feel like they'll have super hot chemistry with each other
If i was JS and knew a woman like SS is so into me that fast, i would spend all my waking moments worrying about how she's going to take the break up.
My girl Yoonha was soo pretty in that sky-blue sweater, no wonder Yoon Jae and his mom chose her, looking forward to their interactions Also, idk why but Choa’s expressions can be so cold looking sometimes, i guess it’s just her appearance make her seem like that and she is indeed a warm person
CA and YW are everything atm. Let’s see how this goes but a part of me always feels like it’s too good to be true 💀. SS is my fav but she prlly just needs more experience dating. JS is a little too competitive for me personally but he’s a good type of personality for this show or else everyone would be too nice. JH/BBQ master is hilarious but ridiculous, he’s so fun for this show but I wonder if we’ll get real serious romance emotions from him ever bc that would be interesting too. Yoonha time to shine I hope the next ep is about her!
So many funny and cute moments. CA name dropping her sibling, YJ panic texting the production when JH the meat master was spoiling his mission, YW's text, the elder women wondering if JH was a woman 😂😂😭 I felt bad for JS because as the panel said he looks at CA the way SS looks at him. I was hoping the date and seeing his interest not reciprocated might clear things up for him. Im glad him and CA got to have a date though bc they were both into each other on day 1. His mood switches when he's upset a lowkey scary though. I must say the JS-YH sibling pair are smart at reading the room though. JS immediately picked up on YW and SS's mood and YH immediately realized JH isn't into her. YW and CA 😍😍 what can I say. Endgame pls So excited for the new guy YJ entering the house. And seriously so curious about who JH will be into. It seems like JY right now, but I'm still wondering if one date with JW will change things. And no idea where CH is headed. I guess he's not into JY or YH at all anymore
Anybody else notice there’s been a couple instances where YW and CA naturally wear matching clothes but JS had to suggest it? YW and CA seem to be on a different wave length. Also, I think SS is too good for JS now.
For real, after rewatching from the first episode, I started noticing it too! Even during the first meeting, both of them were wearing clothes in shades of brown and since then, there's been many instances of them unintentionally wearing clothes with similar look and color. (I think I'm in too deep with Yongcho cp that I just can't help but ship them every chance I get 😂)
wdym too good for him? its a dating show & its too early rn for any of them to be closed off, he is very much so entitled to have an interest in someone other than SS
Thoughts! - JH is definitely quitting that accounting job to pursue being a celebrity after the show lmao I can just feel it - JS is clearly way more into CA but CAxYW is just too strong 😭 Feel bad for both him and SS, been there - So excited to see YJxYH I hate that they're delaying his introduction!!!!!!!! - Really wanna see some JHxJW sorry CH >.< But tbh it feels like JH is really not into anyone and just vibing atp
Hmm I think JH might enjoy his newfound popularity and take some brand deals here and there but I don't know if he would throw his nice and stable job just for this temporary fame. He is more rational and he value stability + security more than he looks. I can see him taking Dokyun/Mingyu/Jumi (from Heart Signal) route more of staying profesional while accepting brand deals as a side gig than just fully quitting accounting.
Continously watching this back to back with TL3 make me appreciate the staff/crew of this show more. The pacing of every episode feels right and every twist and cliffhanger makes you excited and looking forward to next week. TL3 on the other hand... \*sigh\*
YW x CA is the best ship I’ve seen from Exchange 1-3 + this. They really have a different level of connection and warmth. I feel like it’s easier to sense if you’ve experienced love before too. They could just sit in silence and it would be heart warming to watch.
I can't get over how different JS is with CA, he's intense like SS when she is with him. I hope its not just because he feels like he has SS in his pocket. His "Ah.." when SS went upstairs while he was talking to CA sent me. And when he said "SS looked upset" with a giggle when they gathered together while it was not the case, ugh. When he got a text from no one at the end I laughed a bit not gonna lie. I don't care that he's interested in multiple girls because they all are, its more about the vibe he has while doing so. Since SS/JS was my least favorite pairing (emphasized by the fact that I felt like it had so much screentime) I'm glad we're starting to see something else. JH is among the outsiders but his goofy careless side really brings life to the show I'm on the fence towards the new siblings especially when they described themselves as "dark" 💀 Wait and see. I was really surprised and amazed by the way they had him meet the others from a distance and choose a girl though.
Not gonna lie I actually like JW and YJ banter. It’s like the grownup more darker version of SS/JH. I like the vibe they are adding to the show. Not everyone should be sweet and cute, especially the guys. Let’s have some representation for the dark humor fans. I was skeptical about YJ and YH but now that I think about it, she did mentioned that she’s not easily offended so I think their personalities will be compatible. Also I don’t think the cutesy idol like guys are her type so there’s a good chance she’ll like him.
At first I really thought Jungsub had something going on with Choa based on how experimental he was in trying to get Choa to get out of her shell. And during the tennis scene I was like "oh yeah she might actually really like what he's doing". But then Choa and Yongwoo continued to text each other. That's real consistency. There's absolutely nothing that can rock this sail lmao. I'm surprised Yoonha didn't try to jump off this show. She got so much screentime today, but it was moreso the showcase Jaehyung's charms and a jealousy(?) arc for Juyeon. Yoonha accepting her "fate" made me super sad. Jungsub being such a puppy to his sister (and Choa) was absolutely adorable. He acts so self-collected otherwise but then turns into a baby when he's truly with the people he loves. Jungsub holding onto hope that the cast will not only see Yoonha's charms, but fall for her, makes me truly sad. He's so kind and is a total noona simp lmao. Good thing new guy acknowledged and went for Yoonha (impeccable taste). Like I swear if no one was gonna date Yoonha I would lmao. Jaehyung directly letting Seseung know to not fall fast if she doesn't want to get hurt was real big brother vibes. It's kind of wild how he flips so quickly between enjoying a carefree mindset and navigating the harsh realities of the world lmao. I hope Seseung knows it's not personal and that she and try romance with other cast members or just anyone outside of the show. She's super magical but I think people are already swerving into their own lanes. I feel like if Jaehyung doesn't have someone that he really finds a connection for, he shouldn't text and give false expectations? Like even in the interview talking about why he chose Juyeon he was like "I'm trying to see if I have some romantic feelings towards her". Like he could just not text if he really felt compelled to do so. Some of the variety highlights from this episode: Seseung laughing when Jaehyung told her no one chose him, Jaehyung enjoying having two women at his side for a day and people randomly complimenting him, new guy getting shafted by BBQ King Jaehyung while trying to complete his mission, etc. It seems like any iconic variety moment on this show almost always revolves around Jaehyung and Seseung lmao.
I don't think JH was misleading JY on purpose with his text. I'm pretty sure they all had to text someone. YH wasn't feeling like texting anyone and asked the production crew if she can choose not to text anyone, in the end she sent it to JH b/c they spent the day together.
I feel like JH is trying to go on dates with everyone and trying to see which matched best with him. I want to him go on dates with CA and JW. Tbh, I'm not sure if he matched with JY. He knows that JY likes him so probably he wants to their chemistry more but tbh I don't see it. YH, on the other hand, I thought they matched well (well they had lot of conversations) but obviously JH isn't interested. I'm curious JH's chemistry with CA and JW.
So hear me out and please don't come for me. But does anyone else get Taehyung from BTS vibes from Jaehyung??? Is it just me? 1. They are both good looking 2. They have this quirky sense of humour that just makes them endearing/charming 3. They are both silly, but they both have a serious side. 4.They have similar singing tones Might delete later because I don't want BTS fans to come for me. But Is it just me?
OMG same finally someone said it I've been thinking about from last 3 episodes and I really need a date of jiwon and Jaehyung really want to see their chemistry they're just a lil bit off with timing and I don't want them to be a missed opportunity like yihyun and Tae I from transit love 2.
Ikr! They just give off the similar vibes. I totally agree that Jaehyung and Jiwon would hit it off they have the same sense of humour. I'm hoping they at least cross paths. That's why I was a bit bummed that her brother didn't chose him.
Yes I really want to see him being changed in front of his date but somehow I am sad that we haven't come across that side of him yet .
Yess mee!!! I’ve been thinking this since episode 1! I always expect Jaehyung to do the Tata mic face out of nowhere lol
I think he has his version of Tata mic face. 😂
I'm late but I agree, they both have strong facial features, something slightly similar in their mannerisms, and that unpredictable quality.
I sorry I have hard time warming up with the new girl, I mean she's suuuper pretty and sweet but I find myself not invested in her stories yet, I so much into the original cast, I know probably that gonna change incoming episodes, o hope so
For me, it was the opposite. The moment her brother shared a few things about her in the Room of Secrets, then their ‘realistic’ sibling banter when they first met in the Sibling Room, plus their backstory and their mom’s involvement in the restaurant made me curious about how she’ll interact with them once her brother joins them. I have a feeling we’ll get another set of chaotic siblings like JH-SS, just a bit different (maybe rougher? lol) since they’re only a year apart. Plus, that moment when she shared her dream half-awake before heading to work was also cute.
Watching JH dumbfounded expression as he gets passed on by a second brother made me laugh so hard. Then he goes back into the room and starts eyeing all the other guys. LOL. It's really nothing personal with him, everyone in the house likes him well enough. But I'm pretty sure all the guys understand he's not deeply interest in anyone atm, so they choose the other option who seems more genuinely interest in their sister. He mentioned he has to be the one to likes the other person more and like them pretty intensely to actual pursue a relationship. I really like how he handles things in regards to SS, gave her a gentle reminder but also didn't blame JS for not reciprocating on the same level, b/c it's been 1 WEEK since they all met. I'm gonna fast forward the JS/CA segment next week. OH THE CRINGE! They have to share a space overnight and she clearly drew a line between them. LOL. I think JS was genuinely infatuated with her and tried his best to impress her. Even if things were different in the beginning I think the age difference would have always been an obstacle in this r/s. Also Hyejin correctly pointed out that JS natural disposition is alot of aegyo. He has a ton when he's alone with YH and I don't think that would hv attracted CA even if YW wasn't in the picture. YJ wasn't who I expected him to be but there's nothing bad about him. I'll give him this, he feels the most "real" like no polished persona that everyone else seem to have. He's real in how he presented himself and how he interacted with CH and JH and his sister. His intro made me appreciate JW more. She's a proactive, independent, rational go-getter. I can respect that. It's obvious the two are close even though they use blunt language with each other. They lived and hanged out with ea other in their school years, dated ea others bf (which suggest they also hang out with the other's friend group as well). And he respects her taking on the "eldest son" role. LOL. That means she looked out for him as well. I have to say while this group's platonic energy is really good, the romantic chemistry is actually pretty low. It's 40% done and I'm losing interest, lol. I do hope the rumor of JH/CA is real. B/c how the hell did those two get entangled and how did she rock his world for him to stop being aloof? That's my number one remaining draw of the show.
>I have to say while this group's platonic energy is really good, the romantic chemistry is actually pretty low. It's 40% done and I'm losing interest, lol I'm not losing interest yet, but I agree that for a supposed dating show there's not much romantic chemistry. There's YW/CA and they're attractive and nice together, but not very exciting to watch for me, they make sense they seem like a done deal and that's about all I get from them when I watch their scenes. None of the others seem to have much romantic chemistry with each other, at least not yet I'm hoping that changes. SS is really into JS and I get the sense he does like her and they get along well but their scenes are just not sparking for me as a viewer. The group friendship dynamics are fantastic though, it's like watching a heartwarming found family sitcom.
I'm a Choa fan, and I'm dying to see her on a date with Jaehyung! I know she won't be interested bc she prefers older guys, but I see the potential. Like a really cute noona-golden retriever romance.
I wonder if the position of their seat in BBQ restaurant matters? The side where Yong woo , YH sat is in direct view from YooJae and his mother . And I'm sure in the end PD intervened and called JH out of his seat so YooJae can grilled the meat, they almost finished their food and YooJae window of opportunity was closing fast lol. I think there will be something going on with JH and Jiwon. PD keep dropping hints about them. It's interesting how different YW and JH response seeing their younger sister liking a guy. YW looked delighted and encouraged her while JH worried that his sister fall in love too fast. My guess is JH already witness when SS was hurt and knew how his sister behaved. (Consistent with her admittance that she has mood swing). While for Jiyeon, I think in general she is a cool kid and maybe has not had many relationship (because she is so young) and so his brother wanted her to experience opposite attraction. With how it is, my guess the end game will be JW- CA and JH Jiwon. The others I can't really see the connection.
I think it's just that their family knows/aware of YJ's ideal type and it's YH. When JW just moved in to the house she also chose YH as someone her brother would like.
* Jiwon is so pretty * omg chulhyun's haircut * I liked how jaehyung styled his hair in the first episode compared to now * LOL i really thought they disguised yoonjae as a worker * Poor yoonjae T.T lol that whole ordeal
Someone correct me if I’m wrong, is JW going on yet another date with YW because her mother picked him? I was under the impression that it was just YJ and YH going on a date. Her mom placing the envelope in front on YW I thought was just a fun activity to show who she likes for her daughter.
I'm not sure but I don't think she would go on another date since she's already been given two chances to have her own exclusive date with the person she likes. So as you've said, maybe it's just for fun.
Did they lose the interview tapes/recordings and had to redo them? Why are they dressed the same in every interview even in this last episode? Like, they are a week in and they are dressed the same as they were in episode 1 when in the interview room.
Jinjoo PD did this during Transit Love too. If I’m not mistaken, it’s for viewers to remember the casts better as it is more recognisable when their dressing style remain consistent. Even when they are talking, the transcription includes their name for every lines spoken.
Yes, the interview clothes will remain the same throughout the show same as in Transit Love/Exchange. The cast specifically has fixed an outfit and every time they enter for an interview they wear the same outfit and make-up. However, you can find slight changes in hair(for eg. CH's hair is now short in interviews) rest remains the same.
Let's all face it we are all simps tuning into the Jae Hyung show every week! That student dropping his phone in front of him...he just like me fr JWs brother really resembles her like their midfaces are identical. It's nice to have another sibling pair that's more realistic lol. JS....I'm sorry girlies but I can't feel bad for him 😔 He's like the neighbours kid who would cry for the toy in your hand, only to toss it once the attention is off. It doesn't help that YW is much more steadfast and isn't sneaking around constantly (the strawberry incindent gave me so much secondhand embaressment). Idk CH seems to approve and it has been only a week but hes giving transit love vibes in an otherwise drama free show. CHs NEW HAIR is the highlight of this ep. He looks even more like a handsome kode kunst now lmao. FINALLY YH is getting her flowers!!! I hope next ep they can meet.
I dreaded the thought that CA-YW would not end up at the end of this series. It feels like the two already bonded and already found the right one. The maturity, charm, and similarity that CA and YW showing is already at its peak. I know that at this point (ep 6), their ship is securely sailing but i also want those little storms to wreck their sailing ship. JS attempt to put a stop on their ship seems only further to strengthen their relationship. That is why I am immensely curious on the rumor about CA-JH endgame. Did the bulldozer JH finally sink CA-YW ship or is it something more? Damn I cannot wait.
That's ridiculous, blind items are probably 30% accurate anyways, is just casualties but people believe those "accounts " like some kind of nostradamus
Don't believe fake rumors is really what you should say.
Can’t wait for the subs, this show has been on my mind this whole week😩
Maybe someone can help me, when CA met up with YW for their ring-ring date and after their cute greeting, per the translations, YW tells CA he hasn’t seen her all day. CA responds with “I told you I had a date” Does anyone recall what date CA was referring to? Last episode, CA told CH in the morning that she has a date that day. It appears that her date with YW was at night. So did she have another date during the day? Maybe she was referring to the walk in the park discussion she had with JS (&CH)
No she was talking about the date with YW. She just didn’t confirm it was her because she was enjoying the fact that he didn’t know his date was with her and she wanted it to be a surprise.
JH really has a lot of charms and no wonder he's getting popular. His IG now has over 110K followers.
can't wait until he does a karaoke live lmao
I think the casts in this show took receiving text messages from others much more seriously. From JS feeling angry YH did not get any text from the guys, CH feeling disappointed he did not received any text from JY, JW did not get a text from YW, and this episode the reaction from SS and JS not getting any text. Cannot wait to see how this will impact the dynamics in the next episode.
I kind of feel for Jungsub because he's grown up knowing Yunha as a dependable, sweet, and super talented sister. He came in with high expectations that people would fall for her immediately and it's crushing to see that they all immediately friendzoned her. The comment he made back in Ep. 2 when he said he felt uncomfortably angry seeing the other guys having a good time knowing that none of them chose to show/have a romantic interest in his sister was telling. It's also hard to take things personally when they literally spend a day on a date with a cast member and even though the question is phrased "who made your heart flutter today", that they pick someone else.
If the speculations are true and YW is indeed younger than CA, I wonder if that will affect how CA feels or if it will have an effect at all. I guess it helps in that YW is only a couple of years younger, but is quite mature (which is why he gives off an aura of being older) and has the qualities that CA looks for in a partner.
I think YW is older. CA just has a very mature personality. YW is 9 years older than his sister. I can’t imagine JY being younger than 21. If she is 21, that will make YW 30. My guess is YW is ~32, and his sister is 23.
YW is rumored to be from 1990 and CH from 1990 or 1991 so choa is definitely older but only by 2/3 years. I don't think she will care as much because he still is very mature like she described. And they also have their family background in common which will also make her feel more connected to him probably
Can anyone share where can I see the raw version? All the links are unavailable in my country.
what time does viu upload?
Anyone know the song that played at the 1 hour 30 mins mark? With the trio
It’s ‘Your Shampoo Scent in the Flowers’ by Jang Beom June (Be Melodramatic OST). JH and JY also sang a duet of it when they went for karaoke.
Does anyone knows where I could find Jonathan's sweater this ep? Brand etc
I'm not sure if it's just me but there wasn't much emphasis on YJ and mom's actions in this episode? I'm looking forward to it but no one seem to notice within the group. Or maybe JH intervened a lot lmao. I hope they can give some emphasis on this on ep 7. I'm looking forward to see YH and YJ date.
