Member of the group Shinhwa and actor Kim Dong-wan and actress Seo Yoon-ah ended their relationship as a 'broadcast romance', while comedian Lee Young-ja and actor Hwang Dong-joo have developed a connection through the broadcast, continuing a genuine 'romance' that excites the public.

Lee Young-ja and Hwang Dong-joo are forming a sweet relationship, which could be expressed even if they are in what could be termed 'implicit dating'. Lee Young-ja and Hwang Dong-joo are continuing their pink love on KBS 2TV's entertainment program 'A Long-Desired Meeting' (hereafter 'ALM'). This program shows long-time entertainment industry colleagues getting to know each other’s charms through dates, with Hwang Dong-joo and Lee Young-ja demonstrating a growing affection for one another as they develop a more serious relationship.

Hwang Dong-joo, who had been a long-time fan of Lee Young-ja, having admired her since before his debut, has presented viewers with excitement by showing jealousy whenever she interacted with other men. Hwang Dong-joo and Lee Young-ja successfully arranged not only their final one-on-one date but also an after-date, hinting at the possibility of becoming 'real' in their relationship, which seems to have already materialized.

On the 9th, during 'ALM', Hwang Dong-joo expressed concern, saying, "I was really worried about it. I like her for sure, but it was my feelings that weren’t about her liking me." He worried that his unilateral feelings could be a burden to Lee Young-ja.

Hwang Dong-joo stated in an interview, "I don't think I even considered that she might feel burdened. I was just excited for myself, and I couldn't think about those things or show consideration." He added that he was worried that the overwhelming attention might have caused her pressure or harm. When asked when they would go on a date, Lee Young-ja responded, "We will take care of it ourselves. We both have plans. We're going to travel abroad together."

Lee Young-ja explained, "I think I've texted about five or six times since returning from our Gapyung date. It may seem slow, but I hope it just continues to go slowly like this."

On the 18th, during a YouTube channel 'Vivo TV', Hwang Dong-joo shared a story about a time he felt emotional while filming 'ALM', enhancing the excitement. Hwang Dong-joo revealed, "I was standing in front of (Sister Lee Young-ja) trying to choose her in 'ALM', and suddenly, I started to cry. I wasn’t sure if standing in front of her was a dream or reality."

Additionally, in a preview video released at the end of the MBC program 'Point of View of All' on the 15th, Hwang Dong-joo confessed, while the panelists were watching, "I thought it would be better if it wasn't on the show. Isn't Sister Yumi also a woman? I will approach her a step faster and more comfortably," which drew cheers from everyone.

In the upcoming broadcast on the 22nd, Lee Young-ja, who had always appeared without makeup, will appear made up after a visit to Yumi's house, and she will surprise onlookers by having only three golden tangerines for breakfast. Hwang Dong-joo, who is the official romantic interest and is receiving public support, reportedly couldn't take his eyes off the screen where Yumi appeared, focusing intently.

In response to Hong Hyun-hee's pointed question about what relationship she has with Hwang Dong-joo, Lee Young-ja replied, "Why are you asking about my love?" causing another stir in the studio.

Recently, the broadcast romance that had been exhausting viewers has turned into a situation where Lee Young-ja and Hwang Dong-joo are genuinely approaching each other, providing excitement.
