Netflix's new dating reality show "I Want to Date Even Though I Am a Virgin" will be released on July 8.
"I Want to Date Even Though I Am a Virgin" is a makeover dating reality show that aids virgins who are clumsy in dating with their first love experiences. Netflix, which set a new milestone in dating reality with the "Single’s Inferno" series, has returned with a unique flavor of dating entertainment. While it is clumsy and awkward because it is their first time, it is expected that the charming experiences of these inexperienced dating beginners will elicit sympathy and support from viewers.
Most notably, Seo In-guk, Kang Han-na, Lee Eun-ji, and Car the Garden have been cast as "somm makers." The "somm makers" will assist the virgin participants who are on their team with style transformations, communication skills, methods to boost self-confidence, and tailored practical tips for perfect dates. Additionally, they are expected to provide laughs with their over-the-top reactions while observing the clumsy dating challenges of the virgins. The affection and intense coaching from those watching over the virgins, who are like their own children, are expected to be a unique highlight of "I Want to Date Even Though I Am a Virgin."
On this day, the revealed teaser trailer grabs attention with honest thoughts from Seo In-guk, Kang Han-na, Lee Eun-ji, and Car the Garden. Seo In-guk plays the role of a "dating mentor" who spares no realistic advice for the virgins who are clumsy in love, in addition to the makeover. He shared his reasons for participating, saying, "I was curious about how virgins express their excitement and wanted to help them." Kang Han-na, who disclosed that she is a "dating show mania" and follows weekly dating programs, quickly catches the subtle glances of the virgins, enhancing the immersion. She added, "I was moved and enjoyed every moment during the first love and first excitement of the clumsy virgins." Lee Eun-ji, who shows a unique passion for love through her skills in flirting and budding relationships both domestically and internationally, stated, "I love dating reality shows that are filled with dopamine," and expressed her excitement by remarking, "I was drawn to the keyword virgin. It was also refreshing to be involved in dating coaching." Car the Garden, who has stood out in various dating content, is also expected to take on the role of a "somm coach" with a friendly yet sharp and objective perspective, saying, "It was interesting to do a dating program targeting virgins," showing his anticipation for the first dating reality of the virgins.
The teaser released on this day triggers overindulgence even with just a brief video. The clumsy attempts and flirting challenges of the virgins, who have no dating experience, elicit both shock and laughter. They create unexpected scenarios during the timing to hold hands, startling the "somm makers," while the scene of the virgins' first date unfolds chaotically.
The unpredictable first love of the virgins is hinted at in a moment of tears and confusion as they remark, "Is dating really this hard and is loving this difficult?" Additionally, the confession, "I think I might marry her," heightens expectations for exciting changes. Although the start may be a sitcom full of blunders, the end might become a romance filled with excitement, leading to curiosity about the dating growth journey of the virgins.
The raw reactions of the "somm makers" Seo In-guk, Kang Han-na, Lee Eun-ji, and Car the Garden, who are watching the first love of the virgins, are also intriguing. Faced with unbelievable scenes, they express their surprise, stating, "This is not the picture we had in mind," yet they appear genuinely touched by the virgins' newfound honesty in their emotions, saying, "That is what love is."
"I Want to Date Even Though I Am a Virgin," where the virgins' first love unfolds, will be exclusively available on Netflix starting July 8.
