Hwang Jae-geun of 'Couple Palace 2' surprised everyone by giving up his proposal to Seo Jin-joo.
On the 9th, the final episode of Mnet's 'Couple Palace 2' aired, revealing the results of the final proposal that would end the 10-week journey.
On that day, Hwang Jae-geun showed signs of contemplation ahead of his final proposal to Seo Jin-joo. He shared his worries with the grants, saying, "I am contemplating my choice. Jin-joo said she likes me. But we are in a situation where we have many conditional difficulties."
He added, "Her hidden condition is to get married in 2025. She is someone without conditions or qualifications. In a situation where reality is too embarrassing, there are many things I cannot provide, so I thought the person who could help her would be Sang-gyeong."
Hwang Jae-geun then expressed a thought that drew attention, saying, "Am I really someone who can do that for her? So I also hope I can be confident about that. If I feel that I cannot take even a little responsibility, I think it is better not to do it."
On the day of the proposal, standing in front of Seo Jin-joo, Hwang Jae-geun began, "Yesterday, you were the black pearl, but today, you have become a more beautiful white pearl. You are so beautiful. Every time I meet you, you always make me smile and bring happiness every moment, so I really want to thank you once again. I was very happy."
Hwang Jae-geun stated, "I know better than anyone that Jin-joo is sincere about this 'Couple Palace.' I also thought I should make a more careful and responsible choice. I will give up my proposal." Everyone was shocked by the unexpected result, and Seo Jin-joo responded, "I thought you would become my sweet puppy, but I will support your choice as well."
Ultimately, the two could not overcome the wall of reality. Hwang Jae-geun remarked, "So this really has come to an end. If we were dating in our early to mid-20s, we probably wouldn't have dealt with it this way. If I were a ready man, I would have given some assurance, but I couldn't overcome the realistic issues."
Seo Jin-joo cried, saying, "I really was going to get married. I believe I was the person who committed the most sincerely. I thought too much about the concept of marriage. I might have had too much pressure about it. It seems like when you try too hard to hold onto something, it slips away, so I should have tried to think about it more comfortably and let go a little. I regret that I couldn’t get married to the person I wanted the most."
