In the episode, Choi Song-hyun introduced her boyfriend Lee Jae-han, a professional diving instructor. Regarding their first meeting, Lee Jae-han said, "There was an underwater filming competition held once a year in the city of Cebu. I was planning to go to an island, and Choi Song-hyun happened to be there as well. We spent three days diving together."

Choi Song-hyun added, "We liked similar subjects to photograph, and the two of us had the largest cameras."

The two reminisced about their first meeting. Choi Song-hyun said, "When he said he was taking pictures of the stars and took a picture of me together, my heart fluttered." She also surprised viewers by revealing that she received a proposal after just 29 days.

While watching diving videos they had filmed together at home, the couple planned a trip to Jeju Island. The next day, they headed to Jeju for diving. Lee Jae-han showed a caring side by always looking after Choi Song-hyun, capturing the attention of viewers.

The story of couple Lee Won-il and Kim Yoo-jin was also portrayed. The two, who are preparing to get married in April, shared their wedding preparations. Lee Won-il said about their first meeting, "We met as a contestant and production staff on a program where we had a cooking competition with children."

Seeing this, Jang Sung-kyu said, "Kim Yoo-jin is a PD of the MBC entertainment program 'The Manager.' Now I understand why she came to the company dinner. Both are true professionals in their respective fields."

The couple went to a dress shop to look for Kim Yoo-jin’s wedding dress. Lee Won-il was speechless upon seeing his fianc?e Kim Yoo-jin in the dress. Jang Sung-kyu commented, "You just get mesmerized watching her."

The couple Jisook and Lee Doo-hee, who have been dating for 11 months, were also introduced. They described each other as "the person who loves me the most" and "the person I cherish the most." Jisook said, "I originally didn’t want to appear. I was worried there might be conflicts," explaining her reason for appearing on the show.

Lee Doo-hee said, "I thought she was pretty when I saw Jisook’s photos in the past. I wanted to meet her no matter what, and after meeting, I worked hard to get closer." Jisook laughed and said, "It sounds like a love story now, but back then I thought, ‘What’s wrong with him?’ I didn’t think he liked me. Now, 3 to 4 years later, we’re together like this."

That day, Lee Doo-hee and Jisook enjoyed a PC bang date. The couple attracted attention by matching their couple sneakers and couple T-shirts.
