[Asia Economy Online Issue Team] Singer Seo In-young received an after-date request after going on a blind date with a dentist who is 5 years older than her.
On the 22nd, SBS Plus and Channel S's "Love Master" aired an episode featuring Seo In-young overcoming her blind date anxiety and taking on the challenge of "Dosating." Comedian Nam Chang-hee gave up on blind dating, hoping for a new connection to meet in August according to his tarot reading.
That day, a fortune teller interpreted Seo In-young's luck with men. The fortune teller said, "This saju (four pillars of destiny) shows that men are hard to see. Due to her personality, it's difficult to find even if she looks hard. It's hard for her to settle with one man." He continued, "When she is very sad and distressed, she needs time alone. So she is somewhat pitiful. She has a beautiful heart, but in fact, she is a bit lonely. She feels lonely and her heart is always cold," reading Seo In-young's inner feelings.
In response, Seo In-young confessed, "I have no one to rely on. I don't easily open up about difficult things. I tend to talk to my younger sibling, but even that makes me feel sorry." She added, "When I'm having a hard time, I go into my room, cover myself with a blanket, and cry for hours."
When asked, "If the blind date goes well, what would you like to do?" she expressed a simple wish: "I want to take a dog for a walk. I haven't done many things while dating. I think it would be nice to have a lot of conversations while walking."
MC Hong Jin-kyung, watching Seo In-young's saju reading in the studio, advised her, "I think it would be better to put marriage aside and think about it slowly. It would be good to fill yourself up first."
However, Seo In-young said, "I can't help but think about my parents. My younger sibling declared they will remain single. Of course, I’m not marrying because of my parents, but others get to see grandchildren, and my parents can't, so it weighs on my mind."
Coolly accepting the Dosating proposal, Seo In-young met Lee Sang-min, a dentist 5 years older than her. When Lee Sang-min said he runs a small dental clinic in Uijeongbu, Hong Jin-kyung added, "It's not a small clinic; he runs two clinics. He is a humble person."
When asked about his ideal type, Lee Sang-min answered, "Someone pretty in my eyes and who shares a good vibe with me." Seo In-young revealed her ideal type: "I like someone round and cute like a teddy bear when they smile. I like someone with a solid build. I prefer someone who gives a sense of stability."
Lee Sang-min asked Seo In-young, "When you meet people, does it upset you that they have preconceived notions about you?" Seo In-young honestly replied, "Sometimes it does upset me, but now I have somewhat overcome that. Still, it’s uncomfortable to be conscious of it. It’s not a fabricated image, but it is a somewhat exaggerated image. Since there are gains, there are losses, so I think I have to endure it."
After the blind date, Lee Sang-min expressed his liking for Seo In-young, saying, "She had a glamorous image, but she was pure. If I were to score today's first meeting, I would give about 9 out of 10. It was nice to see her smiling and talking well," and requested an after-date.
Hearing this in the studio, Seo In-young also said, "I want to meet again. But can’t someone go on an after-date with me?" showing her blind date anxiety again and making everyone laugh. The MCs calmed her down, saying, "First, exchange phone numbers and meet separately. We will not interfere with your decision at all."
That day, Nam Chang-hee also met with an astrology master to check his love fortune. The astrology master said, "You have strong Leo energy, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a gentle Leo. You will meet a woman who will completely change your way of thinking. You might suddenly announce your marriage next year."
However, Nam Chang-hee declined Dosating. He said, "I feel burdened by blind dating, so I won’t do it this time. I will try to meet a natural connection arranged by Jo Se-ho in August. I am not currently seeing anyone."
At the end of the broadcast, appearances by comedian Seo Tae-hoon and actresses Go Woo-ri and Lee Chae-young were announced. In the released preview, Go Woo-ri drew the widow card, and Lee Chae-young was told that her husband’s seat is empty, raising viewers’ curiosity.
