Lee Jung-jin from 'Lover's Class' joined as a new student, proving he is 'the prepared top groom.'
In the 164th episode of Channel A's 'Recent Men Life - Lover's Class (hereafter referred to as 'Lover's Class')' aired on the 21st, actor Lee Jung-jin made a surprise appearance as a new student, receiving a warm welcome from the 'studio mentor team,' and a scene unfolded where Jang Woo-hyuk enjoyed a second date with Son Seong-yoon. This broadcast recorded a viewership rating of 2.3% according to Nielsen Korea's count, reflecting the keen interest of home viewers.
As spring filled the studio, 'principal' Lee Seung-cheol introduced Lee Jung-jin, saying, 'A student with a great will to become the top groom has come.' Lee Jung-jin replied, 'I will learn a lot. Thank you for your guidance,' bowing at a 90-degree angle, while 'vice-principal' Lee Da-hae and 'dating head' Shim Jin-hwa applauded, exclaiming, 'Wow! That's great!'
When asked, 'Did you originally think about marriage? Or were you averse to marriage?' Lee Jung-jin revealed, 'I was never averse to marriage. I think I was making an effort, but my expectations for my partner were not met.' Shortly thereafter, he appeared dressed elegantly and heading somewhere, which turned out to be a visit to a 'marriage information company' (matchmaking agency). When he arrived at the 'matchmaking agency,' he disclosed, 'Honestly, if I came here for dating, I wouldn’t have come. I want to find a partner who will be my spouse and the mother of my child. So, I am even more cautious.'
A moment later, the manager conducted an in-depth interview with Lee Jung-jin, who responded to the question, 'When was your most recent relationship?' by saying, 'It’s been about two years.' He added, 'I enjoy playing golf and learned photography professionally, even holding a photo exhibition.' However, when asked about 'revenue,' he confessed, 'There’s almost none this year,' but shortly afterward revealed specifics about his current cash and other asset holdings, proving his solid financial standing.
Regarding his ideal partner, he stated, 'I would like someone who has experienced social life. I want to have kids, so I prefer them to be younger rather than older. I prefer tall people physically.' The manager listened to Lee Jung-jin's words and remarked, 'You might need to spend some money (for the membership fee). The matching difficulty is quite high,' leaving Lee Jung-jin feeling dizzy.
After leaving the 'matchmaking agency,' Lee Jung-jin headed to his favorite sundae soup restaurant. Like a Solitary Gourmet, he enjoyed his sundae soup thoroughly before going to meet actor and shaman Jeong Ho-geun. Jeong Ho-geun, who starred in a drama with Lee Jung-jin about 23 years ago, warmly welcomed him, saying, 'You still look handsome!' Lee Jung-jin sought advice on his marriage prospects, and Jeong Ho-geun stated, 'This fall, many good things will happen. You will also get married, and everything will blossom like flowers. There’s a document fortune, which means the 'human document' refers to the woman you will marry. And there’s also the fortune of children.' He further advised, 'It would be nice to meet a woman who is calm and has depth.'
Additionally, Jeong Ho-geun asked, 'Isn't Kim Il-woo also appearing on 'Lover's Class'?' inquiring about his college friend Kim Il-woo, and then laughed, asking, 'Which of the two will get married first?' Immediately, Lee Jung-jin revealed to the curious 'mentor team' in the studio, 'Both of us (will get married), but we weren’t told who will go first.' Kim Il-woo beamed at the good news, and Shim Jin-hwa exclaimed, 'That's the best news I’ve heard!'
As Lee Jung-jin's first class concluded warmly, Jang Woo-hyuk and Son Seong-yoon's camping date was revealed. Prior to the camping date with Son Seong-yoon, Jang Woo-hyuk called his younger sister-in-law to seek 'dating advice.' The younger sister-in-law expressed, 'You are witty and proactive, which is good, but sometimes you may get ahead of yourself. If you remember little things or comments well and later take care of them, women will be 'heart-thumping,' so do well. I hope you quickly find a younger sister-in-law,' encouraging him. Shortly after, Son Seong-yoon appeared, and the two created a sweet atmosphere as they shared snacks while riding in Jang Woo-hyuk's old car from the 1990s.
Upon arriving at the campsite, Jang Woo-hyuk humorously said, 'I will set up house here now,' and after quickly setting up the camping gear, he dressed Son Seong-yoon, who was feeling cold, in prepared clothes. He then confessed in an interview, 'When I dressed Son Seong-yoon, the azalea halo shone, and my heart fluttered,' making everyone excited. In the pink atmosphere, the two entered a two-person tent and lay down closely. This made everyone shout with dolphin screams, while Lee Da-hae remarked, 'Is it true that singers progress in dating quickly?'
Later, Jang Woo-hyuk proposed a basketball game, saying, 'The loser has to kiss the winner on the cheek~,' and after giving Son Seong-yoon a 'one-on-one basketball lesson,' they rode a bicycle together. In particular, while riding the bicycle, he increased his 'flutter level' by getting close to Son Seong-yoon. Shortly after, he revealed, '(Son Seong-yoon) gently grabbed me, and I was 'heart-thumping.' Seong-yoon likes me, right?' which made the 'studio mentor team' burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Jang Woo-hyuk played a cassette player, flirting with Son Seong-yoon, showing off his 'yoseknam' side as he boiled chicken soup with spicy sauce. During the meal, the two also discussed their views on dating, revealing surprisingly many commonalities. Then, Jang Woo-hyuk asked, 'Today is our third meeting (including the blind date), how do you feel about me?' Lee Da-hae and Shim Jin-hwa cheered, saying, 'That’s so direct! Cool!' It remains to be seen whether these two will continue their romantic meetings in the future.
