‎THE LOVE LAB

‎THE AFTERNOON ‎WHEN TWO COUPLES WENT ON DATES

‎This place looks different.

‎-We should do a tea ceremony. ‎-Yeah.

‎-That color suits you. ‎-It does?

‎Thanks.

‎I usually wear white,

‎but sometimes I wear bright colors.

‎Yeah, you do a good job of it.

‎You draw well too.

‎Come on. Don't make me blush.

‎-Wait. ‎-Do you want to eat something?

‎-Anything you need? ‎-Peppermint tea.

‎How do I get peppermint tea?

‎-There isn't any. ‎-I think,

‎we have to be able to leave.

‎We have to leave and…

‎Think of me when you see peppermint tea.

‎JOOHONEY, CHARLESENTER

‎Come on!

‎-Come on, Hye-won. ‎-I'm saving that comment.

‎Think of me when you drink hibiscus tea.

‎I'll remember it.

‎-You will? ‎-Yeah, I'll remember.

‎What the heck?

‎Think of me when you see peppermint tea.

‎I'll have to go get it.

‎I should think of you and pick it up.

‎-Do you like tea? ‎-Yeah.

‎I like herbal tea and fruit tea.

‎Do you like coffee more, Ha-yoon?

‎I do like coffee a lot.

‎Me too.

‎When I travel, I'd get coffee ‎from a place that's well-known there.

‎Maybe you work at a cafe?

‎WHILE THE TWO SHARE THEIR INTERESTS

‎Did you just take a picture of me?

‎So you like taking photos.

‎Just making memories.

‎CASUALLY JOINS HIS SELFIE

‎I have three chins.

‎It became a goofy photo.

‎I'm making you shine, aren't I?

‎Yeah, I like that.

‎This is nice.

‎I kind of like this.

‎What do you like?

‎-Relaxing? ‎-Yeah.

‎It's perfect.

‎Hurry.

‎GENTLY

‎Peace.

‎What was that?

‎It took burst shots?

‎-It looks cute. ‎-It's cute.

‎SLIP

‎-This again? ‎-Thumbs up.

‎Heart.

‎At this rate, they made up their minds.

‎They took that photo ‎after making up their minds.

‎What's up with that?

‎That's so cute.

‎Should we light the fire?

‎Wow!

‎Awesome.

‎It's so pretty. Oh, my.

‎You know, my hands are

‎-really cold. ‎-I know.

‎I have cold hands and feet.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah, it's really bad.

‎HOLDING IT TIGHT

‎-Right? Isn't it so bad? ‎-What's going on?

‎It's really bad.

‎It's so cold.

‎It's so warm. I love it.

‎Let's go on a date.

‎Date? I'd love that.

‎When will we get a chance?

‎-We'll get one, right? ‎-Will we?

‎-We have to make it happen. ‎-How? Will you become king?

‎I should become king.

‎-If I don't, I'll have to win their favor. ‎-Win their favor?

‎-What was your first impression of me? ‎-My first impression of you?

‎I thought we wouldn't have much in common.

‎I thought I was really into looks

‎but after spending a lot of time with you,

‎I realized that I care ‎about the personality too.

‎Wait. Hang on.

‎When you said you didn't care about looks…

‎No, looks used to play a huge part for me.

‎Whose looks did you like ‎the most at first?

‎It's you. That's why I chose you at first.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎Are you curious about anyone else?

‎Just you, for now.

‎There's nobody else besides you.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎For now, there's no one.

‎-Okay. ‎-Yeah.

‎There's no one else.

‎If I went back and voted again?

‎I'd vote for Jung-min.

‎I would've grabbed a handful ‎and never let go.

‎I think I was drawn to him more ‎through our conversations than his looks.

‎At first, he acted more lively ‎to help break the ice

‎but he's also very quiet.

‎I realized he was trying hard ‎to make everyone feel comfortable.

‎After realizing that, ‎I became more attracted to him.

‎I was thankful to you.

‎Everyone felt awkward.

‎It's hard to make such an effort.

‎Yeah, it's hard for me even now.

‎You were making an effort.

‎That's a strength. It's a good thing.

‎Did you see the photo booth message

‎-I worked really hard on? ‎-Yes.

‎Why no reaction?

‎Did you really work hard on it?

‎At first…

‎-Yeah? ‎-No,

‎-I'd rather not say. ‎-Tell me.

‎I'll keep that to myself.

‎Date tomorrow?

‎I do want to go on a date tomorrow.

‎I asked who you wanted to go with.

‎Right, who would I go with?

‎I hope I become king.

‎Are you trying to win my favor?

‎No.

‎You never mentioned it, did you?

‎-What? ‎-What does your ideal type look like?

‎Do you have one?

‎My ideal type?

‎I like someone who has fair skin,

‎someone who's short rather than tall,

‎and I like long, straight hair.

‎Long, black, straight hair.

‎Someone who's pretty?

‎I like a pretty woman.

‎Someone who's pretty and cute.

‎What is your ideal type?

‎Someone with a good first impression?

‎A good… How should I put it?

‎I got a bit nervous

‎and felt embarrassed,

‎so I acted a bit awkward.

‎I was going to say something nice.

‎-Yeah? ‎-You became quiet.

‎I did feel awkward,

‎but I really felt shy more than anything.

‎It was our first date, ‎so I wanted to impress her.

‎I didn't want to show her my shy side.

‎I think I tried very hard ‎not to show that side of me.

‎What is it?

‎To be more exact,

‎I thought you looked like ‎someone I'd be attracted to.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎We met up with the staff, right?

‎-You told them your type, right? ‎-Yeah.

‎I like someone ‎who has fair skin and is skinny.

‎I like someone ‎who kind of looks like a baby fox.

‎Like the actor Lee Jong-suk?

‎They brought someone who looked ‎exactly like the guy I described.

‎-Hello. ‎-Hello.

‎Hello.

‎-Can I sit… ‎-Please sit wherever you'd like.

‎I see it.

‎Even though you're isolated ‎with your ideal type,

‎-it may not work out. ‎-We know it may not.

‎It may not work out.

‎As soon as I saw you, I started laughing.

‎How could they find ‎someone who looks like that?

‎It was so surprising

‎to the point that it made me laugh.

‎Yeah.

‎Let's stop here.

‎The ocean's beautiful.

‎Yeah, the mountain is tall.

‎-Hello. ‎-Hello.

‎Hello.

‎Where should we sit?

‎Eat the fried dish first.

‎-Okay. ‎-Okay.

‎To be honest, ‎I never had marinated crab before.

‎-Really? ‎-Tell me how to eat it.

‎You just grab it

‎and suck the meat out.

‎-It's good if you mix it with rice. ‎-Mix it with rice?

‎This is too challenging.

‎This is like an experiment.

‎Can they eat messy like this ‎and still be attracted to each other?

‎-We are the Love Lab. ‎-Yeah.

‎-It's like that. ‎-We even experiment on eating.

‎Just suck the meat out.

‎-It's good. ‎-How is it?

‎I've never seen anyone ‎eat marinated crabs so cutely like that.

‎"It's good."

‎I want to act like ‎I never had marinated crabs either.

‎Give it a shot.

‎-Give it a shot? ‎-Yeah.

‎-But-- ‎-You want to look cute.

‎I've never seen this before. What is it?

‎Take a small bite and say,

‎"It's good." Then--

‎-It's cute. ‎-Really?

‎-Yeah. ‎-I'll say, "It's good."

‎Then, after he goes to the bathroom, ‎I'll gobble it up.

‎It's definitely good.

‎-It's good. ‎-How is it?

‎-Isn't it good? ‎-Yeah.

‎-It comes out when you press it. ‎-Okay.

‎It's really good.

‎Okay.

‎It can look a little funny.

‎I know.

‎REVEAL YOUR AGE AND JOB NOW

‎Tell me what it is.

‎Age and job? All of a sudden?

‎-Here? ‎-While eating crabs?

‎But it's so out of the blue, isn't it?

‎Why reveal their jobs ‎while eating marinated crabs?

‎I really don't get the timing ‎of revealing one's age and job

‎-on our show, the Love Lab. ‎-Right?

‎How old are you?

‎You kept on thinking I was older.

‎How old you do I look?

‎Since you thought I was older,

‎I do think you're young,

‎so maybe 25?

‎Can't you go first?

‎-I'm 26 years old. ‎-26 years old?

‎I was born in 2001.

‎-Born in 2001. ‎-2001. Okay.

‎He's the same age as my younger sibling.

‎Really?

‎Yeah, he's the same age.

‎There's a huge age gap.

‎Yeah, we're seven years apart.

‎I was worried that ‎he might think I was too young

‎and feel a bit uncomfortable with me.

‎Are we the same age?

‎No.

‎Am I older?

‎Yes.

‎Are you 24?

‎How much younger is okay for you?

‎Me? Not 20 years old…

‎I'm 22.

‎22 years old?

‎Born in 2005?

‎That's my little sibling's age!

‎Your little sibling and mine?

‎I'm 22.

‎22 years old?

‎22 years old?

‎Unbelievable. ‎Of course, you thought I was older.

‎You were born in 2001, right?

‎I don't think that's a huge age gap.

‎But you said you were 25.

‎I thought you'd be around my age.

‎22 years old?

‎Unbelievable.

‎Four years isn't a huge gap though.

‎22 years old?

‎We're done for.

‎-We're done for? ‎-Yeah.

‎There's no reason for that.

‎My job is…

‎Wait, try to guess it.

‎Don't you want to guess?

‎-You must want to guess since you're 22. ‎-Give me one…

‎That's such a stereotype.

‎You're right. I agree.

‎-What is it? ‎-I am

‎a dancer. I do ballet.

‎-For real? ‎-Yeah.

‎I'm a ballet dancer.

‎-For real? ‎-Yeah.

‎I'm a ballerino.

‎I studied practical dance ‎at Korea National University of Arts,

‎and currently, I am a dancer ‎with Yunbyul Ballet Company.

‎I achieved the second place ‎on a male dancer survival show.

‎RUNNER-UP ON MNET'S "STAGE FIGHTER"

‎Ballerinos must express ‎their emotions very well.

‎There are at least 1,000 seats ‎in the auditorium.

‎I have to show the audience who I am

‎and become fully immersed ‎in my performance.

‎To give a flawless performance, ‎I keep pushing myself and train offstage.

‎When I deliver a deeply moving experience ‎to the audience on stage, I feel happy.

‎KANG KYUNG-HO ‎26 YEARS OLD, BALLET DANCER

‎I am a ballet dancer.

‎At that moment,

‎I felt like my eyes turned into hearts.

‎-Interesting, right? ‎-Yes.

‎-I don't look like a ballerino, do I? ‎-No.

‎Everyone says that.

‎He has fair skin, he's slim,

‎and I love that he has fox eyes.

‎He has a really beautiful body line.

‎I like people who are in the arts.

‎On top of that, I like sly men.

‎After finding out what he does for work,

‎I totally fell head over heels for him.

‎How did you end up doing ballet?

‎Did you see that?

‎She's so excited. Look at her feet.

‎-She's bouncing them. ‎-Yeah.

‎She's so excited.

‎How did you catch that?

‎How did you end up doing ballet?

‎My little sister started it first.

‎I naturally ended up doing it too.

‎What do you do for work?

‎I'm studying philosophy.

‎Philosophy?

‎Philosophy is less about finding answers

‎and more about asking "why."

‎I'm majoring in Philosophy ‎at Sogang University.

‎Sogang University?

‎That's insane.

‎-She looks even prettier now. ‎-Wow.

‎Ever since I was young, ‎I've loved theater and musicals,

‎so I set my goal of becoming ‎a performance arts producer.

‎I felt that producing performances ‎for a broad audience

‎required deeper thinking.

‎That's why I chose philosophy.

‎By taking on roles in planning, ‎production, directing,

‎and every stage of theater ‎through my drama club,

‎I'm steadily working toward my goal ‎of becoming a performing arts producer.

‎LEE YE-RIM ‎22 YEARS OLD, PHILOSOPHY MAJOR AT SOGANG

‎-Philosophy? ‎-Yes.

‎Honestly, that isn't so shocking.

‎But you're 22.

‎You have to be nice.

‎-Me? ‎-Yes.

‎Shouldn't you be nice to me?

‎Like respecting the elderly?

‎Yes.

‎Didn't you say that we're done for?

‎You seemed caught off guard.

‎I was caught off guard. I didn't think ‎a 22-year-old would be here.

‎This may sound a bit strange.

‎I…

‎I don't care about whether she is ‎younger, older, or the same age.

‎But if someone overlaps with ‎my younger sister's age,

‎I strangely become distant.

‎It's not the deciding factor,

‎but the moment I heard her age, ‎I think I put a small barrier between us.

‎Kyung-ho's little sister and Ye-rim ‎are the same age?

‎So what?

‎It does matter.

‎How come?

‎You start thinking she is ‎your younger sister,

‎so you'll want to take care of her ‎and say things like, "Do better."

‎I think that same frame has been ‎put on Ye-rim now too.

‎Okay. But you know,

‎it could be because she is ‎exactly the same age as his sister

‎and not younger or anything.

‎-I can't date someone my brother's age. ‎-Exactly.

‎I felt like there was ‎a bit of distance between us.

‎What did I do when I was 22?

‎Are you trying to put distance between us?

‎What did I do?

‎I really have felt that age ‎is only a number.

‎-But you didn't react that way. ‎-Me?

‎But the number two and two ‎is a bit shocking.

‎I think 24 was the youngest I've dated,

‎so I never even considered ‎anyone younger than that.

‎Honestly, ‎I didn't think a student could be on this

‎because of various circumstances.

‎Has he never watched dating shows?

‎There's always a college student ‎on dating shows.

‎I took some time off.

‎Really?

‎I like that you made that choice.

‎Stop talking like an old-timer.

‎I really admire that kind of decisiveness.

‎-Shall we clink our glasses? ‎-Yeah.

‎Chae-rin asked you ‎that question yesterday.

‎-What? ‎-How many people you are interested in.

‎How many would you like to get to know?

‎Me?

‎Right now?

‎Right now, there are two.

‎I was a bit annoyed.

‎But it should be that way.

‎And the reason why

‎we are all interested in someone

‎is just because of the first impression, ‎so we don't know how it'll change.

‎That was the conclusion everybody came to.

‎But…

‎"I don't get that" ‎was ‎what‎ I ‎was ‎thinking.

‎Can I ask who it is?

‎No, you can't.

‎-Want me to tell you? ‎-Yes.

‎The person I'm interested in?

‎First of all, you.

‎Are you curious?

‎Yes.

‎I was most curious about you.

‎Honestly, I'm curious about everyone.

‎I didn't want to fully reveal ‎what was in my heart.

‎I just want to say nice things to others.

‎If you don't, ‎both parties would feel awkward.

‎Am I even allowed to say?

‎It's…

‎Ga-yeon.

‎-But Ga-yeon is so different from her. ‎-Right.

‎They are polar opposites.

‎She must be nervous.

‎-She must be. ‎-And she seems older.

‎Oh, no. So it begins.

‎She knows that she's younger too now.

‎The whirlwind of emotions ‎is about to begin.

‎Yesterday, I was curious about

‎you and Ga-yeon.

‎Why?

‎What about you?

‎Never mind.

‎Why are you laughing?

‎Because it's funny.

‎What's funny?

‎The fact that you're 22 years old.

‎I'm just kidding.

‎I'm just kidding. It was a joke.

‎It can be funny.

‎Why did you laugh?

‎I laughed because it was what I expected.

‎-The two people you were curious about. ‎-I see.

‎I do think that ‎I acted pretty transparently.

‎I don't think I spoke to anybody ‎besides you two.

‎I felt nervous rather than secure.

‎When I asked him a question,

‎I knew that I wouldn't get a reaction ‎to the extent that I would expect.

‎So it was hard for me ‎to ask questions to draw him out.

‎You know,

‎I realized what I don't like ‎about how Kyung-ho acts.

‎If he isn't sure of how he feels ‎and can't answer directly,

‎why would he do this?

‎To be honest, that was ‎because he didn't know her age

‎and he just followed his heart.

‎I think that's understandable.

‎How understanding of you.

‎He can do things like this. ‎It's understandable.

‎He didn't know her age.

‎That's not how women feel.

‎Usually, I'm not that honest

‎and I don't open up easily.

‎That's why it's very hard ‎for me to force myself to do it

‎since I'm not used to doing it.

‎Let's say I become the king.

‎I can choose who I want to date.

‎Would you like me to choose you or not?

‎I'd love it if you chose me.

‎You might want to talk to ‎someone other than me.

‎I do want to talk to someone else too ‎since we don't have a lot of time.

‎Exactly.

‎What about you?

‎Are you going to choose me again?

‎Would my answer change your answer?

‎Me?

‎No, it would be nice if you voted for me.

‎-Why? ‎-What?

‎Because you voted for me.

‎Well…

‎You'd be happy with anybody's votes.

‎No, that's not true.

‎I didn't get the feeling that ‎he was happy it was me.

‎I felt like he didn't feel ‎the same way about me.

‎And what do you… Wait, no.

‎How do you feel…

‎I think those questions ‎are very difficult.

‎"How do you feel?"

‎"What are you going to do tomorrow?"

‎The fact that she asked me those questions

‎came across as being very honest,

‎but it did make me feel uncomfortable too.

‎I think it would be premature ‎to make a decision right now.

‎Of course.

‎-It's their first date. ‎-Yeah.

‎Those questions are like the ones you ask ‎before the final decision.

‎Ye-rim likes him so much.

‎-She just wants to go ahead with it. ‎-Right.

‎Her ideal type is Kyung-ho.

‎One is smitten, the other isn't.

‎But Kyung-ho only put ‎one Heart Chip in in the beginning,

‎that tells me that he's not the type

‎-to go all-in from the start. ‎-Right.

‎It wasn't clear who had ‎the upper hand before.

‎-But now, it feels like Ye-rim… ‎-That's it.

‎-…is clinging to him. ‎-Yes, it seems that way.

‎What about you?

‎-Oh, no. Ye-rim looks upset. ‎-Would you ask me out?

‎The mood turned serious already.

‎-The air. ‎-Yeah, the air feels heavy.

‎It's too soon to be like this.

‎What about you?

‎Would you ask me out?

‎Yes.

‎You aren't curious about anyone else?

‎Someone you want to talk to.

‎I think it's more meaningful for me

‎to spend time with someone ‎I am even a little more interested in.

‎Understood.

‎I thought our feelings would at least be

‎somewhat similar ‎in terms of pace or intensity,

‎but I don't think that was the case.

‎The thing is,

‎if my feelings weren’t strong,

‎I don’t think I would ‎say these things or act this way.

‎But he could easily do it ‎even though he doesn't feel that strongly.

‎Because she's pretty.

‎I guess I misunderstood ‎and misread the situation.

‎I don't know why our conversation ‎took a serious turn.

‎The thing is, I'm still unsure.

‎It has only been two days since we met.

‎I get that we don't have much time

‎and it's too short to ‎get to know someone else.

‎Yeah, it's a bit difficult.

‎Is it better to go all-in on one person?

‎Honestly, I don't know.

‎If I were to go all-in on someone, ‎I want it to be without any hesitation.

‎Honestly, there's someone ‎I am still curious about

‎and I don't want to feel like ‎I have to force myself to let go.

‎Will you feel sure

‎if you had a conversation ‎with that other person?

‎I don't know. I have no choice ‎but to compare you two.

‎Because I don't like doing that,

‎I want to hurry up ‎and talk with that person.

‎I know it's very ironic.

‎The reason why I asked you this ‎was because I was really just curious.

‎It's not because I want to burden you

‎or get reassurance from you.

‎I think I just need some time.

‎Okay.

‎Kyung-ho may seem a bit annoying ‎from Ye-rim's perspective.

‎-Of course. ‎-He left too much room for interpretation.

‎I don't know if I can say this, ‎but it feels like

‎he played her.

‎-Joo-heon. ‎-Yeah?

‎Why didn’t you agree with me earlier, ‎but now you’re saying the same thing?

‎Which one?

‎Kyung-ho hit on her first.

‎But you said you understood ‎and that it happens.

‎I did think it could happen then.

‎People can change their minds, right?

‎-It keeps changing, right? ‎-Right.

‎I thought that back then.

‎He kept saying she was pretty.

‎-Her young heart must've skipped a beat. ‎-You're right.

‎-I understand how Ye-rim feels now. ‎-Yeah.

‎What? "Now?"

‎I hate people like that.

‎This is how I feel.

‎You do that a lot too, you know.

‎No, I don't!

‎You'd say, "This guy is my type!"

‎But you'd stop liking him ‎ten minutes later.

‎I'm not like that in real life!

‎Look, this is what I mean.

‎If he isn't sure about how he feels,

‎he should be more careful ‎about how he carries himself.

‎Kyung-ho may be thinking that he can ‎do whatever he wanted to try out.

‎Yeah, you're right.

‎But he's even annoying for me too.

‎Where did this cutie go?

‎-She looks like a woman facing a breakup. ‎-I know.

‎-Can't we see them in the carts again? ‎-Right?

‎Look,

‎-how could this not make her heart race? ‎-I know.

‎Look.

‎They're going down.

‎-She was so happy! ‎-Look!

‎This looks like a photo from the past.

‎Look at that. Gosh, darn it.

‎I feel bad.

‎She looked so happy.

‎CHAE-RIN AND DO-GEON ‎YUCHEON RAW FISH RESTAURANT

‎Thank you.

‎I was so hungry.

‎-I'm so hungry. ‎-I know.

‎Yeah, I'm so hungry.

‎I think you're younger than me.

‎Out of nowhere?

‎-Why? ‎-Maybe not?

‎Why?

‎I don't know.

‎What about me?

‎I think you could be older.

‎Really? Is that how you felt?

‎But I really can't tell.

‎I'm more curious about your age.

‎What do you prefer, older or younger?

‎Older.

‎-Older? ‎-Yeah.

‎Me too.

‎-You prefer someone older? ‎-Yeah.

‎That's totally unexpected.

‎I have never dated anyone

‎younger than me.

‎-Seriously? ‎-Yeah.

‎-So you like someone older. ‎-Yeah.

‎But you said I looked older.

‎Yeah.

‎That works out then.

‎What? Why are you copying me?

‎Why am I getting so excited?

‎He's so my type.

‎I think Chae-rin is older.

‎-Yeah, I think she's older. ‎-She gives off that vibe.

‎Imagine the view outside is the ocean.

‎-It feels like we're out on the ocean. ‎-It does.

‎Isn't it the ocean?

‎Are you from Busan?

‎You're good.

‎-I'm from Busan. ‎-Are you from Busan?

‎I'm from Busan.

‎I think dialects are interesting.

‎I like them.

‎When I first moved to Seoul,

‎I couldn't stand hearing people ‎speak in standard Korean.

‎Does "Hey, Do-geon" sounds weird too?

‎If you say that in Daegu, ‎it means you like me.

‎-"I like you." ‎-"I like you."

‎-It's like that? ‎-Yeah.

‎Then, how do you call someone?

‎My friends would just say, "Do-geoy."

‎-Do-geoy? ‎-"Hey, Do-geoy."

‎Wow. That's fascinating.

‎THEIR FOOD ARRIVED

‎-Thank you. ‎-Thank you.

‎-Isn't it tasty? ‎-It's tasty.

‎It's really delicious.

‎It's so good.

‎Will we get drunk today?

‎Maybe?

‎Shall we get drunk?

‎My heart skipped a beat.

‎Yeah, mine too.

‎Not "Let's get drunk."

‎-But "Shall we get drunk?" ‎-"Shall we get drunk?"

‎Drunk Date, here we go.

‎Shall we get drunk?

‎-Do you want to? ‎-It doesn't matter to me.

‎What is your ideal type again?

‎Someone who is understanding ‎and a good listener.

‎Someone who is calm and composed.

‎What about you?

‎I like someone who is ‎more outgoing than me.

‎When someone talks happily next to me, ‎I get lively too.

‎If there are two people like me…

‎"Let's eat."

‎-"It's good." ‎-"Chow time."

‎"Stop talking and eat."

‎What is it?

‎-We can… ‎-Yeah?

‎-…reveal our ages and jobs. ‎-What?

‎-Right now? ‎-Now.

‎REVEAL YOUR AGE AND JOB RIGHT NOW

‎I was so surprised.

‎I almost wondered ‎if I wanted to avoid this situation.

‎Without even realizing it, ‎I think I was scared that

‎he was younger.

‎I'm getting nervous.

‎Can I guess it first?

‎Let me start with your age.

‎Twenty…

‎five?

‎You think I'm 25?

‎Am I right?

‎How young are you

‎for you to say that?

‎I was born in 2000.

‎So 27 years old.

‎-Twenty-seven. ‎-I think you are

‎in the arts or sports field.

‎What kind?

‎Dance?

‎You're right.

‎You're a dancer? For real?

‎-Do I not look like it? ‎-What kind of dance?

‎-I majored in contemporary dance. ‎-Contemporary dance?

‎I'm a contemporary dancer.

‎I liked dancing since I was little.

‎I was drawn to the process of ‎expressing my inner self through my body,

‎and naturally ended up majoring in dance.

‎Currently, while continuing ‎my performances and creative work,

‎I also work as a staff member ‎at my alma mater, Sejong University.

‎I will continue to learn and grow,

‎constantly balancing my work on stage ‎with my role in education.

‎I hope to become an artist and dancer

‎who can connect ‎with people and offer comfort

‎through honest and heartfelt movement.

‎MOON CHAE-RIN: 27 YEARS OLD, ‎CONTEMPORARY DANCER, FACULTY STAFF

‎That's why!

‎That's why she said she knew Kyung-ho.

‎You must be really good at it.

‎No, that's not it.

‎That's awesome.

‎Was it what you expected?

‎I did expect it.

‎Dancer?

‎When we talked about our hobbies…

‎I like going to performances by myself.

‎What have you seen?

‎I like to watch dance performances ‎in Daehangno.

‎-Dance performances? ‎-Yes.

‎How old are you?

‎I think…

‎you were born in 2001.

‎You might be shocked when you find out.

‎What is it? What?

‎I was born in 2003.

‎2003?

‎How is this…

‎Are people born in 2003 that mature?

‎Those born in 2003 are mature.

‎Really?

‎My senior in the military ‎was born in 2003.

‎You know, I can date a 24-year-old.

‎What? Hang on.

‎You were shocked when you heard ‎that he was born in 2003.

‎I was really surprised but I can date him.

‎But he may be all right with Ye-rim too.

‎-For real? ‎-I'm 24 years old.

‎24 years old?

‎Gosh, really?

‎First of all, I was very surprised ‎when I learned he was younger.

‎I couldn't hide my expression.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎You're much younger than I expected.

‎-Am I? ‎-Yeah.

‎And I recently finished ‎my military service.

‎Really?

‎Yeah.

‎-You're on your final leave? ‎-Yes.

‎Yes, I'll be discharged next Monday.

‎-Congratulations. ‎-Thank you.

‎-Really? ‎-Finally.

‎I'm happy.

‎I'm still a soldier, ‎but I'd like to date someone.

‎When were you discharged?

‎March of this year.

‎March of this year?

‎Do-geoy, man. Eat up.

‎Gosh. To be honest, I'm really in shock.

‎So shocking. Let's drink. ‎This is so shocking.

‎So I just went, "Cheers."

‎"Shall we clink our glasses?"

‎I felt like

‎we had to keep drinking.

‎"Shall we clink glasses first?"

‎Should I act like I didn't hear that?

‎My hand kept reaching for the drink.

‎Job?

‎Guess.

‎You're an athlete and…

‎Yeah?

‎-Are you ‎-Yeah?

‎a swimmer?

‎-Swimmer? ‎-Or

‎golfer?

‎I am in the arts and sports field.

‎Really?

‎You're an athlete, right?

‎-I'm not an athlete. ‎-You aren't?

‎I'm not an athlete.

‎Why did you think I was?

‎I thought you were an athlete.

‎-You aren't an athlete? ‎-No, I'm not.

‎What the heck? You're very good at acting.

‎Are you an actor?

‎Is that the art field you're in?

‎-That's right. ‎-Stop lying.

‎-Are you for real? ‎-Yeah, I'm serious.

‎-What? For real? ‎-I'm in acting.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎He's an actor.

‎It doesn't suit him.

‎-I think it suits him. ‎-He seems introverted.

‎He's more attractive now.

‎I am majoring in Theater and Film ‎at Dongguk University.

‎I have loved dancing and being on stage ‎since I was young.

‎I'm pursuing my dream of becoming an actor

‎by connecting with audiences ‎through the stage of theater.

‎During my military service, ‎I joined the Army performance team

‎and gained attention for performing ‎the opening part of "like JENNIE."

‎That experience inspired me to ‎pursue ‎my passion ‎for ‎the ‎stage ‎even ‎further.

‎What?

‎I didn't expect that.

‎He's practically a con artist.

‎Now, I hope to become an actor

‎who continues to deepen his craft ‎through diverse experiences.

‎PARK DO-GEON ‎24 YEARS OLD, THEATER AND FILM MAJOR

‎You may have seen me ‎while scrolling through Reels.

‎-While scrolling through Reels? ‎-Yeah.

‎It was when I was a soldier.

‎Isn't it something

‎like those people who dance ‎in the military?

‎Like a dance video ‎of "Hype Boy" or something.

‎It's Jennie's…

‎Wait, Jennie?

‎-"like JENNIE." ‎-"like JENNIE."

‎-Did you see it? ‎-I did.

‎Really?

‎-You were in that? ‎-Yeah.

‎I'm the one in the beginning.

‎-Really? ‎-In the intro.

‎Amazing.

‎Are you good at dancing too?

‎I took some lessons a while back

‎for about two to three years.

‎I knew it.

‎-You have the body of someone like that. ‎-Really?

‎I want to see it again.

‎I was a bit disappointed.

‎I wanted to avoid anybody ‎in the arts and sports field.

‎So it was a bit disappointing.

‎But I was hoping he'd be an athlete.

‎Even though he'd be in arts and sports, ‎an athlete might have been okay.

‎That thought did go through my mind.

‎"Okay, he's an athlete."

‎I guess I was hoping or imagined ‎that he was one.

‎It made me take a step back ‎and view him more objectively

‎in that moment.

‎Show some respect to me.

‎Man.

‎Show some respect.

‎Can't say the words?

‎I'm curious.

‎So shocked.

‎I've never dated a younger guy.

‎I don't think it'll be too different.

‎-Really? ‎-It may even be better.

‎I've never been interested ‎in someone who's younger than me.

‎Isn't that too direct?

‎It's very discouraging to Do-geon.

‎She went too far.

‎But there are people like her.

‎They don't even consider someone younger.

‎I want to round up everyone like that ‎and give them a real attitude adjustment.

‎-But-- ‎-So what if they're younger?

‎They had a change of heart ‎just like Kyung-ho and Ye-rim.

‎I don't get it though.

‎She saw him as a man before.

‎But now she doesn't?

‎She didn't know his age then.

‎That dislike is totally unfounded.

‎Why would you dislike someone younger?

‎I've never been interested ‎in someone who's younger than me.

‎Honestly.

‎No interest in someone who's younger?

‎I've never viewed younger guys as men.

‎Is she putting up a wall between us

‎or is she rejecting me?

‎Those thoughts did cross my mind.

‎Either way, I could get her

‎to like me eventually. ‎That's the main thought I had.

‎So I wasn't too shaken by it.

‎I may be different.

‎-He's determined to win her over. ‎-Let's go!

‎-Yes! ‎-Just go for it!

‎He's competitive. What a man!

‎"I may be different."

‎Yeah, you may be different.

‎Show me you're different.

‎THEIR SECRETS HAVE BEEN REVEALED

‎Since we're sharing it…

‎Wow! For real?

‎I started over then.

‎We must be getting a mission.

‎-What is it? ‎-There it is.

‎A LETTER ARRIVES

‎-There's something. ‎-What is it?

‎There's something.

‎-Ha-yoon is excited. ‎-Right?

‎It's his first time.

‎-Why are you so happy about it? ‎-Ha-yoon.

‎So this is how it feels.

‎What is it? I'm nervous.

‎This only applies to use four, right?

‎I know. Doesn't it seem so special?

‎"A new chip has been added today.

‎Go to the Heart Room ‎and check it out now."

‎-What? ‎-A new chip?

‎-And? ‎-That's it.

‎-What? ‎-Let's go.

‎What's going on?

‎So there's something new.

‎What's this?

‎A new chip has been added.

‎-Black? ‎-Black chips?

‎"Each person gets 10 Black Heart Chips."

‎"This is a negative Heart Chip ‎that reduces your opponent's Heart Chips."

‎"You may use it to hold back ‎someone you don't want as king."

‎"Black Heart Chips may be used on anybody

‎and can be used on multiple people."

‎If you have used up ‎all 10 Black Heart Chips,

‎you may exchange your Heart Chips ‎to get more Black Heart Chips.

‎"If you want to exchange it, ‎put your Heart Chips in the glass vase

‎-and take the Black Heart Chips." ‎-I exchange it with mine, right?

‎-Wow. ‎-Negative Heart Chips.

‎So they can use their own Heart Chips?

‎To get additional Black ones.

‎The Heart Chips in your Heart Box ‎resets every day.

‎How should I use them?

‎How can I use them wisely?

‎It's different from a regular vote.

‎There must be a strategic way to use it.

‎There must be a reason why ‎this was revealed to us four first.

‎So how are we supposed to use these…

‎-Preventing someone from becoming king. ‎-You can use it on a few people.

‎You can do that with these.

‎Get rid of their hearts.

‎We can make someone king.

‎-Right. ‎-I guess?

‎-Since the king is made by other people. ‎-Right.

‎If someone's a strong candidate,

‎-we add ours to… ‎-If we wanted to,

‎we could just trade Heart Chips ‎and reuse them.

‎We already got ten to begin with.

‎We can use underhanded tactics ‎by working together.

‎We can definitely do that.

‎Those people don't know about this.

‎-They'll say, "What's this?" ‎-We're on the same boat.

‎-The game is on. ‎-It's a secret.

‎Let's plan it out and make it happen.

‎It's possible.

‎We could give each other hearts.

‎You could give it to the person you want ‎in order to make them the king.

‎-Yeah, we could. ‎-We could also discuss among ourselves.

‎We have to conspire.

‎HEART CHIPS BECAME TOOLS FOR POWER

‎You know, I'd be offended ‎if I didn't get any Black Heart Chips.

‎Do I not seem popular to you?

‎They must not think I can become king.

‎This is tough.

‎These things are so hard.

‎You know what I want to know?

‎Is there a reason why we have to ‎do all this to make someone king?

‎If one of the other four becomes king,

‎the four of us may not ‎be able to go on a date again.

‎-Then, one of us should become king. ‎-If we become king,

‎we can plan it out.

‎-We can match the dates. ‎-Let's talk about it.

‎We could put all the Black Heart Chips ‎to the person who seems most popular.

‎We can become king.

‎Let's make one of us four the king.

‎If one wants to go on a date ‎under this system,

‎I felt like we needed the power of a king.

‎The one who gets the most Heart Chips

‎and the fewest Black Heart Chips ‎becomes the king among us.

‎Then, who should we pick?

‎And how many should we give ‎to secure their position?

‎Wait, so three of us have to concentrate ‎our support to one person.

‎If we put at least 100…

‎Can we give it to the same sex?

‎You can use the Black Heart Chips ‎to attack the same sex,

‎-but I can't give any hearts to Jung-min. ‎-Right.

‎You can only put in the women's boxes.

‎Either you two pool them, or we do.

‎No, you can give it to the same sex.

‎How can I give hearts to…

‎Why would I give Jung-min hearts?

‎Honestly, I had a hard time understanding.

‎I didn't get it.

‎My brain was just not working.

‎If we want to strategize,

‎we have to speak up ‎about who we want to date.

‎Right.

‎Talk about who we want to date?

‎-After you become king. ‎-Yeah, after you become king.

‎We have to get together ‎after we become king.

‎We'll make one of us king

‎and each person can meet the king ‎and tell them what we want.

‎-Go to the king's quarters and… ‎-The king's quarters?

‎-How many Heart Chips do you have? ‎-I guess I have 250 Heart Chips.

‎I haven't used any.

‎Me…

‎I have quite a lot.

‎So…

‎You have the most, don't you?

‎You didn't vote yet.

‎Ha-yoon has the most chips

‎and I actually have the most chips too.

‎I didn't think I should tell them ‎the fact that I didn't vote.

‎I have the advantage too, right?

‎I thought it would be easy ‎to make someone king.

‎You know what's insane?

‎All the men have 200…

‎-250 chips. ‎-250 chips.

‎-250 chips. ‎-Yeah.

‎249 chips and 248 chips.

‎-Right. ‎-That's crazy.

‎All of them have a lot of hearts.

‎We have to figure out…

‎But if they went on a date today,

‎they have to give each other hearts.

‎Unless they loved their date so much ‎that they put in 200 hearts…

‎No one would do that.

‎-They may not even get 100. ‎-Right.

‎-I think I can give 100. ‎-It's slim.

‎Based on today's date?

‎Let's say we have 200 hearts. ‎We only have three nights left.

‎As you said, ‎we could use 100 to 200 hearts,

‎but it would become too costly ‎for us to choose someone to be king.

‎So I think,

‎since the average of 250 ‎in four days is 65,

‎we can use that to give ‎someone 130 hearts.

‎Then, all of us can use each of ‎our Black Heart Chips to each person.

‎We'd be safe, ‎but we're in trouble if it goes over that.

‎-Then, we'll end up with nothing. ‎-Right.

‎-Then, we will… ‎-And…

‎We'll fall from grace.

‎65 chips each isn't a bad idea.

‎-65 chips each is good. ‎-It adds up to 130.

‎It's more than half of 250 chips.

‎-They wouldn't give 130. ‎-Exactly.

‎Of course not.

‎If they give it, it's 200. ‎If not, it's 100.

‎-We wouldn't get 130. ‎-I'm wondering.

‎Of the 250 hearts

‎we can turn them into Black Heart Chips

‎and keep giving them out one ‎by one today, tomorrow, and the day after.

‎Then, all I need to spend is 50 hearts.

‎-Even with 50, I can confess my feelings. ‎-That's the issue.

‎But you see,

‎why would you make ‎more Black Heart Chips to do that?

‎I thought I could stop someone ‎from becoming king.

‎Can you target that exact person?

‎-But I can… ‎-What if they could reject Black Hearts.

‎You might be right.

‎-At this rate-- ‎-Rather than pulling down many,

‎it's more effective ‎to choose someone to be king, right?

‎It'd be hard to target a specific person, ‎but we can pick the best.

‎We're betting on that.

‎If we put in 65 hearts, ‎one of us can become king.

‎Is there anyone you want to ‎show your interest in today?

‎SILENCE

‎This is kind of hard to say.

‎What were you going to say?

‎-W-w-what were you asking? ‎-Honestly…

‎-How do we answer that? ‎-Why'd you ask?

‎You may have certain moments ‎that you cherish.

‎Since today's vote is too calculating…

‎-But there's no point in saying it. ‎-It's okay, you can tell me.

‎Once you use up our hearts, ‎you can show your feelings anyway.

‎So not today?

‎Ha-yoon came up with the solution,

‎and we all teamed up

‎for a little scheming.

‎It could be that ‎we promised to give each other 65 hearts.

‎But what if someone changes their mind ‎and decides to give it to another?

‎At least, I won't…

‎I'd cut ties with them.

‎Today… That really put me off.

‎Gosh, it really does.

‎Let's not betray each other today.

‎Let's put our fists together.

‎Not today.

‎-Be honest. ‎-At least for today.

‎No betrayals.

‎-We can turn evil tomorrow. ‎-Right.

‎-You just have to say, "Your Highness." ‎-What if the king goes mad?

‎None of us here are crazy, right?

‎Not me. At least, not me.

‎Let's not work with these two.

‎They're so scary.

‎We need four to make a king.

‎They're scary.

‎-In the end-- ‎-I want to go out with Ga-yeon tomorrow.

‎I'll keep this alliance.

‎Even if I become king,

‎I won't think about causing any chaos.

‎I'm okay with not being the king.

‎Let's write a contract instead.

‎Get an ink pad.

‎-I mean it. Put lipstick on it. ‎-No, get a red ink pad.

‎Let's write it. Come on.

‎No reason not to.

‎Also,

‎why are you smiling so slyly?

‎What should I write?

‎Trust

‎and love one another.

‎"Trust and love one another."

‎Great words.

‎I don't think they'd know what it is ‎if we leave it like this.

‎But also,

‎-what if the four check-- ‎-Check us?

‎You're back.

‎Hello.

‎Black Heart Chips…

‎What's that?

‎HIDING IT

‎They must have gotten groceries.

‎Really?

‎-No way! ‎-Wow!

‎You're the best!

‎Thank you.

‎-You got groceries? ‎-Thank you.

‎-You got groceries? ‎-Yes.

‎-Wow. ‎-It looks good.

‎-Did you have fun? ‎-Yes.

‎They got groceries.

‎You look a lot happier.

‎Jung-min can't read the room.

‎What made him think they looked happier?

‎Did you have fun?

‎We should take this to the lounge.

‎We didn't know what to get so…

‎You even got meat.

‎Awesome!

‎You went straight for the chocolate.

‎Were you craving it?

‎He remembered that you wanted chocolate ‎and got you some.

‎Don't you think so? He only got chocolate.

‎There wasn't anything sweet here.

‎Why would he tell her that?

‎How is that going to help him?

‎The rest can go to the lounge.

‎I'll make us delicious ‎doenjang‎ stew.

‎We haven't had dinner yet.

‎-Really? ‎-Really?

‎We haven't eaten.

‎You haven't had dinner?

‎-We ate. ‎-We ate.

‎We had spicy blue crab soup,

‎soy sauce marinated crab,

‎-and spicy marinated crab. ‎-Yum!

‎I'm so jealous ‎you got to have my favorite dish.

‎I'm hungry.

‎Have some snacks.

‎So…

‎-What? ‎-We should decide.

‎Hasn't it been decided?

‎Who?

‎I think we can do that while we eat.

‎-It isn't that important. ‎-But they can hear us.

‎They'll come with us, won't they?

‎-But it doesn't matter who does it. ‎-Why not?

‎-That really doesn't matter.

‎Why not?

‎Because the king has to ‎do what the other three says.

‎But shouldn't we decide among ourselves?

‎Of course, we have to decide.

‎We have a lot of time though.

‎-Okay. ‎-First,

‎-the contract. ‎-But we might not… Right.

‎I won't do it ‎if we don't sign the contract.

‎Me neither. Those guys are scary.

‎Shouldn't we write the contract ‎and decide who'll become king?

‎-Before they come. ‎-It's okay.

‎Why do you say it's okay?

‎-We can take our time. ‎-Really?

‎I don't think we have a lot of time.

‎Who wants to do it?

‎Should we give you 65 hearts each?

‎We'll concentrate our votes.

‎-Then… ‎-Hurry.

‎-One of you two. ‎-One of you two.

‎-One of you two. ‎-It doesn't matter.

‎What should we do? Should I do it?

‎-Hye-won can do it. ‎-Okay, Hye-won.

‎If I become king I might…

‎-You'll get all these other ideas. ‎-Yeah.

‎First of all, Ha-yoon has a lot of chips

‎and I have a lot of chips, ‎but no one else knows that.

‎So maybe the men should give the votes.

‎Even if Ga-yeon isn't the king,

‎I thought Hye-won would ‎match Ga-yeon with me.

‎And I could sense Ga-yeon's feelings

‎about me a little bit.

‎Besides the time the four of us spent,

‎the two of us spent ‎a lot of time together,

‎so I felt pretty sure about it.

‎Honestly, I didn't want to become king.

‎I keep making eye contact with Kyung-ho.

‎They'd last a long time ‎and it happened frequently.

‎I don't know if I'm attracted to him

‎or he just draws attention.

‎I was curious.

‎But if I became king

‎and went on a date with Jung-min,

‎I was worried it would end up ‎like I was picking a lane,

‎so I just wanted to leave it to fate.

‎Where did everyone go?

‎They went to the lounge. Want to go?

‎Yeah, we should go.

‎Why did they go to the lounge?

‎I think they went to cook.

‎Really? Let's go.

‎No, go ahead. I'll be there soon.

‎You want to wait for me?

‎I'll wait.

‎Come inside and wait.

‎I had a really hard time.

‎It felt kind of awkward too.

‎Because I looked so down,

‎I could tell that he was ‎trying to look after me,

‎but perhaps it's because he felt sorry.

‎Wait, let's each make a promise.

‎-Promise already. ‎-Yeah.

‎Do you have a pen?

‎-Give it to me. ‎-A pen?

‎You won't betray us if you become king?

‎Do I look like I would?

‎I won't do it until we sign the contract.

‎-You said you liked me. ‎-I will…

‎-I'll get it. ‎-We'll write a contract--

‎-Ga-yeon doesn't trust me. ‎-I can hear everything.

‎That's why we're writing a contract.

‎Did you get the pen?

‎Let's do it over there.

‎One person at a time.

‎Leave it here.

‎When you sign the contract, ‎print your name, then sign it.

‎Okay.

‎Isn't it our first time in the lounge?

‎The two are coming.

‎I'll get some soju.

‎Should we cook the meat in here?

‎Can you cook it in that?

‎I'm worried they'll stick.

‎We can coat it with oil.

‎I put the contract

‎in a notebook next to the drawings

‎that were on display.

‎I hid it right under their noses.

‎DO-GEON AND CHAE-RIN ARE BACK

‎It must've been so fun!

‎How cool.

‎-I'm jealous. ‎-What's that?

‎It must've been fun.

‎You went on a drive in that car?

‎-Yeah. ‎-Wow.

‎-How nice. ‎-What were you doing?

‎-We were cooking. ‎-Really?

‎You guys looked cool ‎when you got out of that car.

‎I'm jealous.

‎-Didn't we have fun? ‎-Didn't we have fun?

‎I thought no younger men.

‎This is too much. I'm getting so excited.

‎-Didn't we have fun? ‎-Didn't we have fun?

‎I hear it sizzling.

‎It's going to be delicious.

‎-What a waste, right? ‎-Yeah.

‎I don't know if I did it right.

‎You're cooking the meat okay?

‎Aren't I doing a good job?

‎Did you salt it?

‎No.

‎Are you doing it right?

‎-I'll sprinkle some on. ‎-Okay.

‎I'm not good at grilling meat,

‎but I wanted to act like I was good at it.

‎I wanted to mess with her.

‎I told her to sprinkle some salt ‎since she didn't.

‎Then, I told her to sprinkle some pepper.

‎I started it off ‎with light conversation like that

‎and tried to grill the meat together.

‎I need scissors.

‎Shouldn't you use these to grill the meat?

‎Right?

‎What are you doing?

‎-Oh, no. ‎-Oh, no.

‎I know how that feels.

‎-Oh, no. ‎-Oh, no.

‎Her eyes are on ‎the back of her head right now.

‎Oh, no.

‎And Ye-rim knows.

‎She knows how Kyung-ho shows affection. ‎It's teasing.

‎-And messing around. ‎-Yeah, she experienced it herself.

‎He did that to her ‎but now it's someone else.

‎But the reason is only because of her age.

‎What are you doing?

‎This?

‎Be honest. Isn't it hard with that one?

‎My goodness.

‎Use this one.

‎No, you should use this.

‎Okay, use this then.

‎I think that's enough.

‎The pepper?

‎The things that Kyung-ho ‎was ‎doing ‎to Ga-yeon

‎became more noticeable to me.

‎They grilled the meat together

‎and joked around.

‎Those things were clearly noticeable.

‎When Kyung-ho expresses ‎his interest or curiosity in Ga-yeon,

‎I really didn't know how to take it.

‎For the first time, it was very confusing.

‎What kind of date did you go on?

‎-Today? ‎-Yeah.

‎We ate blue crab.

‎Spicy blue crab soup.

‎-And marinated crabs? ‎-Yeah.

‎We got groceries and chatted.

‎-How was it? ‎-We walked around nearby.

‎Is it different when you meet outside?

‎-When you meet outside? ‎-Yeah.

‎You're happy when you meet outside.

‎Do your feelings grow more than in here?

‎-Feelings? ‎-Does it grow bigger?

‎It did help me organize my thoughts.

‎-I see. ‎-Kind of.

‎In certain aspects, ‎I am more confused as well.

‎-Why? ‎-Just curious.

‎About my love life?

‎About what it's like to go out.

‎-You want to go out? ‎-Yeah.

‎Keep working at it.

‎Keep working at it?

‎Yeah, become king

‎or the king's loyal servant.

‎-You're dethroned. You know that, right? ‎-I know.

‎I know. I'm screwed.

‎I'll serve the stew for you.

‎Give me a bowl.

‎It doesn't really look like ‎doenjang‎ stew.

‎I can't wait.

‎It's really delicious.

‎A little bit of everything, please.

‎Please be quiet. I got it under control.

‎Let's eat this, Ga-yeon.

‎Oh, side dishes.

‎Put that there and share among yourselves.

‎Let me know if you need more.

‎-Should we share one too? ‎-What?

‎-Let's share a bowl. ‎-Okay.

‎I'll put it there.

‎-This. ‎-Isn't it your second time?

‎I know.

‎Thanks.

‎Thanks for the food.

‎-Enjoy the food. ‎-It looks so good.

‎What would we have done ‎if they didn't get the groceries?

‎-You're right. ‎-What?

‎Would we have starved ‎if they didn't get groceries?

‎We'd eat instant noodles. ‎You eat instant noodles at this hour.

‎Thank you.

‎The stew is really tasty. It's my style.

‎Really?

‎-I'll try it. ‎-It's very good.

‎To be honest, we all made it together.

‎Only Kyung-ho grilled the meat.

‎What? I helped out too.

‎Only Kyung-ho?

‎Only Kyung-ho did the meat.

‎Kyung-ho and Ga-yeon ‎sat next to each other.

‎I didn't want to sit next to them,

‎so I sat on the other end.

‎I didn't want to ‎make him feel uncomfortable,

‎so I kept avoiding him.

‎Sorry, but she's shooting ‎EXchange‎ on her own.

‎Oh, man.

‎Oh, no.

‎It's four nights and five days. ‎What is she going to do now?

‎What did you do today?

‎We went to make perfume.

‎-And… ‎-The perfume.

‎-Did you make one another's perfume or-- ‎-Same one.

‎We got the same scent.

‎-We went on a luge ride. ‎-Luge?

‎This?

‎Yeah.

‎-How fun. ‎-Do it again.

‎Why?

‎You did it so well.

‎Totally.

‎I had so much fun.

‎Honestly, the food

‎that we all made together ‎was very precious.

‎It's really tasty.

‎Anyway, I was happy

‎because I was with Ga-yeon.

‎Aren't you glad I got groceries?

‎You get a smiley face sticker.

‎That was satisfying.

‎Let's clean up and get moving.

‎-Okay. ‎-Okay.

‎I noticed that ‎the pot was completely empty.

‎We made the right amount.

‎THE KING RECEIVED A MESSAGE

‎I can't stop being nervous.

‎What are you most curious ‎about one another?

‎Isn't it two things?

‎The time has come for us ‎to reveal our age and jobs.

‎The two of you must know.

‎-Yes. ‎-We know.

‎How do you know?

‎-We told each other on our date. ‎-We revealed it.

‎I was so curious.

‎It would be an opportunity

‎for the veil to be uncovered ‎and reveal our true selves.

‎When I told Kyung-ho,

‎he said I was young and there was ‎nothing to say about my job.

‎That's the kind of reaction I got,

‎so I figured I'd think ‎everyone's job was cool.

‎That's why I felt more intimidated.

‎Why? ‎Being a college student isn't a crime!

‎-Whenever Ye-rim is on… ‎-Why are you intimidated?

‎Be proud of being young.

‎-It's a good thing! ‎-Exactly!

‎Should we start with ‎the people who revealed theirs first?

‎I am 27 years old, born in 2000.

‎I'm 27 years old

‎and majored in contemporary dance.

‎Dance?

‎And I am also working ‎as faculty staff at a university.

‎-I'm a teacher too. ‎-You were right.

‎-It really was. ‎-Really?

‎She seemed like a teacher.

‎I'm 26 years old, born in 2001.

‎I am

‎a ballet dancer.

‎-Awesome. ‎-It suits you.

‎I thought he'd be in the arts.

‎Being a ballerino ‎is such a rare profession,

‎so it stood out.

‎He seemed young,

‎so that was surprising.

‎-They both suit you. ‎-I want to go see your performance.

‎That sounds cool.

‎Let's all go see your performance.

‎I'll make sure to invite you all.

‎-Any performance you want. ‎-Nice.

‎That's why I already knew Kyung-ho.

‎-Really? ‎-What?

‎-For real? ‎-Yeah.

‎I actually knew too.

‎Really? No way.

‎-He must be famous. ‎-For real?

‎-I really knew who he was. ‎-Wow.

‎No way.

‎He's that famous?

‎He was the runner-up ‎on a survival dance show on MNET.

‎He's very talented.

‎All the dancers know him.

‎DURING THEIR FIRST MEETING

‎Hello.

‎It's a man.

‎-Hello. ‎-Hello.

‎Hello.

‎-Can I sit… ‎-Please sit wherever you'd like.

‎Don't all dancers know him?

‎I was going to pretend ‎I didn't know until the end,

‎but I just told them.

‎I'm a fan of Kyung-ho.

‎Thank you.

‎-Cool. ‎-I'm getting goose bumps.

‎Thank you.

‎I am…

‎22 years old.

‎-What? ‎-You're so young.

‎Unbelievable.

‎A baby.

‎I'm studying philosophy.

‎That's why you speak so well.

‎-No wonder you were philosophical. ‎-She's very sharp.

‎Doesn't she seem more mature than me?

‎When I saw her,

‎I thought she'd have a job ‎where she is seen by others.

‎But she was a college student ‎studying philosophy.

‎That was rather surprising.

‎I was born in 2003.

‎-I'm 24 years old. ‎-Hang on.

‎-He looks young. ‎-I'm an actor.

‎Theater and Film major.

‎Were you on something?

‎How did you know?

‎-You looked so familiar. ‎-Really?

‎I was discharged from the military ‎a month ago.

‎Did you dance in the military?

‎I danced to "like JENNIE."

‎Really?

‎-Wasn't that super viral? ‎-Yeah.

‎-Awesome. ‎-He was in the intro of that.

‎Everybody is so awesome.

‎I wanted to have a conversation with him.

‎We're both in college,

‎so he might be the person ‎I can click with the most.

‎Jung-min?

‎-I'm so curious. ‎-Me too.

‎I'm the oldest yet.

‎I was born in 1997 so I'm 30.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎I'm a freediving ‎and scuba diving instructor.

‎-Really? ‎-A swimming or sports instructor.

‎I'm a freediving ‎and scuba diving instructor.

‎Sometimes you feel free ‎and sometimes you face extreme challenges

‎while experiencing a new world underwater.

‎I was captivated that ‎which inspired me to pursue it.

‎I swam for many years ‎during middle school.

‎That's when I experienced diving.

‎It's called freediving.

‎I got certified in that and scuba diving.

‎When my students ‎overcome their fear of the water

‎and discover a whole new world,

‎it gives me a sense of fulfillment ‎and pride as an instructor.

‎PARK JUNG-MIN ‎30 YEARS OLD, DIVING INSTRUCTOR

‎A freediving instructor ‎isn't a common job.

‎It was the most memorable.

‎It suits him so well. He looks the part.

‎He just looks like an instructor.

‎He's an instructor.

‎Ha-yoon?

‎-I'm so curious. ‎-I was

‎born in 1997.

‎-My friend. ‎-Same age.

‎I thought I would be the oldest.

‎And I am a fund manager.

‎I work at a real estate ‎asset management company.

‎I work in asset management ‎at a real estate asset management company.

‎I currently manage real estate assets

‎such as office buildings ‎and commercial properties,

‎with a focus on enhancing their value.

‎Wow. How cool!

‎He looks so cool, Joo-heon.

‎He looks like he could help grow my money.

‎I studied architectural engineering…

‎…but when it comes to managing ‎real estate properties,

‎having a good understanding of ‎building structures and operations

‎makes it easier to respond effectively.

‎I identify the potential of each property,

‎analyze market trends, and work to enhance ‎competitiveness of the assets I manage.

‎After formal notice was given, ‎the eviction process was completed.

‎JUNG HA-YOON ‎30 YEARS OLD, FUND MANAGER

‎He looks so handsome, Joo-heon.

‎I think jobs matter to me.

‎He looked like a stick figure earlier, ‎but he looks like a man now.

‎-That's so awesome. ‎-That's all.

‎I kind of expected that.

‎-He seemed very achieved. ‎-So smart.

‎Yeah, that's why.

‎As I expected, he was a very smart guy.

‎He seems to live a structured life ‎unlike me.

‎-Me? ‎-I'm so curious.

‎Oh, my gosh. I am…

‎I thought everyone was older.

‎-Wait. ‎-Really?

‎-That's so funny. ‎-We aren't?

‎-I also thought all the girls were older. ‎-You did.

‎We aren't?

‎I was born in 1997.

‎-The three of us are the same age. ‎-We're the same age.

‎Yes,

‎and I'm the CEO of a skincare brand.

‎-That's what I do. ‎-Wow!

‎-Wow. ‎-Awesome.

‎I'm the CEO of ‎the skincare brand Elleybear.

‎I had been studying fine art for years,

‎and when I moved to the UK at 20,

‎I pursued studies in the visual arts.

‎MAGAZINE WORK STYLED BY HYE-WON

‎My mom studied biotechnology,

‎so she manages the manufacturing side ‎while I focus on the design side.

‎We work together.

‎From product planning to package design,

‎I oversee all aspects of visual branding.

‎It would be ideal if ‎it could be released this week.

‎The plan is to have two options available ‎for customers to sample.

‎Beyond Korea, we have successfully ‎opened pop-up stores in Italy,

‎firmly establishing Elleybear's presence ‎in the global market.

‎JUNG HYE-WON: 30 YEARS OLD ‎CEO OF SKINCARE BRAND ELLEYBEAR

‎I always admired people ‎who were in design or the arts.

‎After hearing that she studied in the UK

‎and designs skincare products,

‎I came to think she was ‎even more impressive.

‎My attraction for her grew a lot.

‎Gosh, there are so many talented people.

‎She's awesome.

‎Last up.

‎I was

‎born in 1999,

‎so I'm 28 years old.

‎And I am…

‎I think Ga-yeon is in ‎the beauty or fashion industry.

‎I work for an SK affiliate,

‎providing network consulting services ‎for corporate clients.

‎I am an IT consultant.

‎That is so awesome!

‎No one's job matches ‎the way they look right now.

‎There are so many shocking moments.

‎She looks different. That's so surprising.

‎She looks prettier now.

‎Hello, I'm Manager Park Ga-yeon ‎at SK Broadband.

‎I propose IT solutions ‎that meet the needs of companies,

‎conduct presentations to secure contracts,

‎and then manage the entire ‎implementation schedule and process.

‎When the solutions I’ve prepared ‎are chosen by companies,

‎I feel the greatest sense of fulfillment.

‎PARK GA-YEON ‎28 YEARS OLD, IT CONSULTANT

‎That's so cool.

‎-Interesting. ‎-Seriously.

‎It's so surprising though.

‎-I thought you were in the beauty field. ‎-Really?

‎I do like those things, ‎but I do love my job.

‎-Everyone's jobs are so different. ‎-For real.

‎An age gap of one or two years ‎isn't much of an age gap.

‎I don't feel that much ‎of an age gap with her,

‎so my feelings for her haven't changed.

‎But she has a job ‎that I did not expect at all.

‎She seemed very cool.

‎That's what I was thinking.

‎A NIGHT WHERE THEY GOT TO KNOW ‎EACH OTHER BETTER

‎THE HEART CHIP VOTE WILL BEGIN NOW

‎What? Multiple votes?

‎The Heart Chip vote ‎for the second day will begin now.

‎Multiple votes are allowed today.

‎You may vote for one person ‎or two or more people of the opposite sex.

‎We can vote for multiple people ‎starting today?

‎-Multiple votes? ‎-My head hurts.

‎We can vote for two or more people.

‎-Two or more? ‎-Yeah.

‎There's no limit.

‎You can even vote for four people.

‎But we have to give someone ‎the Black Heart Chips.

‎Yeah.

‎Who should we give the Black Heart Chips?

‎Oh, we forgot to pick someone.

‎THE FOUR-PERSON ALLIANCE MUST DECIDE ‎WHO WILL RECEIVE THE BLACK HEART CHIPS

‎-Let's go there. ‎-Then, fix this.

‎It doesn't work.

‎Since we have ten Black Heart Chips,

‎the four of us will use 10 each.

‎But we have to decide who it'll be.

‎Who do you want?

‎How about Chae-rin?

‎-Put 10 hearts in Chae-rin's box. ‎-I'll do that.

‎-You put in Do-geon's. ‎-I'll put mine in Do-geon's

‎Okay. I'll put mine in Chae-rin's. ‎You put yours in Do-geon's.

‎-Isn't the scent stronger on me? ‎-Yeah.

‎-Isn't it strong? ‎-How does it last so long?

‎-Jung-min will vote for Kyung-ho. ‎-Right.

‎We'll all put ten each.

‎And

‎-Ga-yeon votes for Ye-rim. ‎-Yeah.

‎Let's do that.

‎THE 4-PERSON ALLIANCE ‎HAS CHOSEN A TARGET

‎I should check carefully.

‎GA-YEON, PLEASE GO TO THE HEART ROOM NOW

‎Did you tell her?

‎Can I have some lip balm?

‎So? Do I do whatever I want?

‎Put the ten Black Heart Chips…

‎Yeah?

‎-…into Ye-rim's box. ‎-Okay.

‎Do you have any cotton swabs?

‎I have some.

‎I keep having to come in here.

‎What is going on with my hair?

‎Today, the Black Heart Chip ‎allows you to cast a negative vote.

‎There are a lot of game elements.

‎I'm so curious about ‎how those elements will affect the result.

‎PARK GA-YEON ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎Since I could vote for multiple people,

‎I voted for Jung-min

‎and Kyung-ho.

‎GA-YEON'S VOTE ‎26 → JUNG-MIN, ?? → KYUNG-HO

‎Jung-min was my top choice,

‎I just had a good feeling ‎when I thought of him.

‎That's why I wrote, "I like you."

‎I LIKE YOU!

‎And with Kyung-ho,

‎I wanted to let him know it was me.

‎That's why I wrote that.

‎And regarding what the four of us planned,

‎they said I should vote for Ye-rim.

‎GA-YEON: 10 BLACK HEARTS → YE-RIM

‎JUNG HYE-WON ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎I did what I was told ‎regarding the Black Heart Chips.

‎HYE-WON: 10 BLACK HEARTS → CHAE-RIN

‎After putting ten Black Heart Chips ‎in Chae-rin's box, I realized,

‎"So this is what it feels like."

‎I wasn't interested ‎or ‎attracted ‎to any other men besides Ha-yoon.

‎So I put one Heart Chip in Ha-yoon's box.

‎HYE-WON'S VOTE ‎1 → HA-YOON, 10 BLACK HEARTS → CHAE-RIN

‎Jung-min, about the Black Heart Chip vote…

‎Who are we voting for?

‎We have to decide ‎who we're giving these 10 chips to.

‎We're giving Hye-won 65 hearts, right?

‎-Even so-- ‎-I…

‎What was that?

‎It's a monster.

‎What was that?

‎What's going on?

‎We were talking about ‎who we should show interest in.

‎Oh.

‎Got it.

‎We can briefly decide that right now.

‎Let's just decide that now.

‎Then, you do Kyung-ho and I'll do Do-geon.

‎Okay.

‎Why didn't you make any noise?

‎I was standing here and looking at you.

‎Then, weren't the two of you talking?

‎-You two weren't talking? ‎-No.

‎EVERYONE SEEMS SUSPICIOUS NOW

‎-What do we do? ‎-Tell me.

‎-I'll explain. ‎-Tell me.

‎It sounded like ‎the two were scheming something.

‎I really could have ‎eavesdropped if I wanted to.

‎You really scared me. Geez.

‎JUNG HA-YOON ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎I don't have any bad intentions ‎by voting for Do-geon.

‎HA-YOON: 10 BLACK HEARTS → DO-GEON

‎I gave Hye-won 65 hearts.

‎HA-YOON GAVE 65 HEARTS TO HYE-WON

‎I was really touched ‎by our brief conversation that morning.

‎This is Yin-Yang water.

‎You have to drink it in the morning.

‎It helps with digestion.

‎-It's so nice. ‎-Yeah.

‎I think it really helped my digestion

‎and I felt energetic the whole day.

‎I FELT ENERGETIC ALL DAY ‎THANKS TO YOUR YIN-YANG WATER! THANKS

‎HA-YOON'S VOTE ‎65 → HYE-WON, 10 BLACK HEARTS → DO-GEON

‎PARK JUNG-MIN ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎Since we plotted to make one person king,

‎I voted for Hye-won.

‎JUNG-MIN: 57 HEARTS → HYE-WON

‎And I gave the rest ‎of the Heart Chips to Ga-yeon.

‎Because it was already a given ‎that we would go on a date…

‎WE'LL HAVE MORE FUN ‎THAN ANYONE ELSE TOMORROW

‎I left her a note saying that we'll have ‎more fun than anyone else tomorrow.

‎I gave the Black Heart Chips to Kyung-ho.

‎JUNG-MIN: 10 BLACK HEARTS → KYUNG-HO

‎JUNG-MIN'S VOTE ‎?? → GA-YEON, 57 → HYE-WON

‎10 BLACK HEARTS → KYUNG-HO

‎Anyone would think ‎you're going out tomorrow.

‎-Where did he go? ‎-Who?

‎-Jung-min. ‎-Why?

‎-Why? ‎-Did he leave?

‎No reason.

‎What's wrong?

‎Can we talk for a second?

‎What's going on?

‎What's happening?

‎I'm not sure what's going on.

‎-Maybe I'm wrong. ‎-What's up?

‎-What is it? ‎-This is my assumption.

‎While we were gone,

‎the four were left behind, right?

‎I think

‎they're going to make one of them king.

‎So what you're saying is ‎besides the ones that went on a date,

‎the four that were left ‎are going to make one of themselves king?

‎Do you want to be king?

‎King? It would be nice.

‎Me too.

‎Want me to invest in you?

‎If the tables turn because of this… Man.

‎Want me to invest in you?

‎-To shock them? ‎-Yeah.

‎Then,

‎how much do we have to spend ‎to become king?

‎-I'll just pour it in. ‎-Pour it in?

‎By the way…

‎-She was looking for you. ‎-Chae-rin was looking for you.

‎She looked speechless.

‎For real?

‎-Where did she go? ‎-She went to talk with Do-geon.

‎MOON CHAE-RIN ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎What's this?

‎"The other person's number ‎of Heart Chips…"

‎That was insane. Truly.

‎There was something ‎I never expected at all.

‎Gosh. Hang on.

‎Everyone except those four just found out ‎that the Black Heart Chips exist.

‎How am I supposed to use these?

‎Who should I use them on?

‎I thought about it a lot.

‎CHAE-RIN: 10 BLACK HEARTS → ??

‎And to Do-geon,

‎I gave him 20 Heart Chips.

‎CHAE-RIN'S VOTE ‎20 → DO-GEON, 10 BLACK HEARTS → ??

‎PARK DO-GEON ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎When I read what was written on the note,

‎I realized that the Black Heart Chips ‎can be used effectively

‎if people were to form an alliance ‎to make someone king.

‎And I thought Jung-min ‎could end up being king this time.

‎DO-GEON: 10 BLACK HEARTS → JUNG-MIN

‎I only put two hearts ‎in ‎Chae-rin's ‎box ‎yesterday,

‎but my feelings for her ‎have ‎grown ‎since ‎then so…

‎THE RED HEART CHIPS INCREASED ‎AS MUCH AS HIS FEELINGS DID

‎I wrote, "See you at Gireum Station."

‎SEE YOU AT GIREUM STATION

‎I live near Korea University.

‎Anam?

‎-Where do you live? ‎-Near Gireum.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎Why do we live so close?

‎That's only a 10-minute walk.

‎I wanted her to know it was me.

‎That's why I wrote that.

‎You draw really well.

‎That's insane.

‎Can you tell what it is?

‎It looks like a butterfly.

‎Yeah, make it pretty.

‎-Pretty? ‎-Yeah.

‎You guys look like you're in a web drama.

‎Yeah, the three of you.

‎One of us has to win him over.

‎We have to charm him?

‎I love how you all look. ‎Even your outfits go well together.

‎-Really? ‎-Yeah.

‎Should I dress cute or hot tomorrow?

‎-I pick hot. ‎-Go with hot.

‎Then I'm going to go all out tomorrow.

‎What are you going to wear tomorrow?

‎Tomorrow?

‎Something mature.

‎-Geez. ‎-Gosh!

‎If you're 22 years old, you're an adult!

‎Kyung-ho, I get what you're saying.

‎I get it.

‎But I feel so bad for Ye-rim.

‎She wants to wear something mature.

‎He keeps talking to her ‎because she's on his mind.

‎Exactly.

‎If you're 22 years old, ‎you're definitely an adult!

‎If you can buy cigarettes and alcohol ‎at a convenience store, you're an adult.

‎Something mature.

‎Mature?

‎No.

‎Never mind.

‎I didn't want to be king. ‎I just wanted to do what I was told.

‎Even if I became king,

‎I wouldn't want to burden him ‎so I wouldn't choose him.

‎But no one would choose me ‎besides Kyung-ho.

‎I really wanted to be king.

‎I was

‎so confused.

‎I wanted to create an environment ‎where I can gather my thoughts.

‎KANG KYUNG-HO ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎But there was something unfamiliar there.

‎I found out that ‎the ‎Black Heart Chips were negative chips.

‎LEE YE-RIM ‎ENTERS THE HEART ROOM

‎I thought it was so mean.

‎Heart Chips are meant to be used ‎to express how they feel.

‎But if someone else deducts that,

‎it could cause a huge misunderstanding.

‎So I didn't put any in.

‎If I could only vote for one person,

‎I would have had to think ‎even more about it.

‎I went on a date with Ye-rim ‎and I had a great time,

‎but I keep getting more curious ‎about Ga-yeon.

‎Is it different when you meet outside?

‎-You want to go out? ‎-Yeah.

‎So when I heard I can cast multiple votes,

‎I felt at ease.

‎?? → GA-YEON, ?? → YE-RIM, ‎?? BLACK HEARTS → ??

‎Honestly, ‎I considered not voting for anyone.

‎But there's still a lot of time left,

‎so I thought I should get to know ‎someone else and talk to them more.

‎I'D LIKE TO GET TO KNOW YOU

‎YE-RIM: 1 HEART → ??

‎And I thought a lot about ‎whether ‎I should vote for Kyung-ho or not…

‎The Heart Chip vote ‎for the second day has ended.

‎Female participants, ‎please begin checking your vote boxes.

‎Open your box ‎and only check what's inside yours.

‎I don't want to open it.

‎When I opened it, ‎there was a message that said,

‎"See you at Gireum Station."

‎DO-GEON → CHAE-RIN ‎45 HEARTS

‎Wow, he's so direct.

‎I got the impression that he wanted to ‎keep seeing me after we left here.

‎He's usually not very expressive,

‎but then he suddenly said something ‎that made my heart race.

‎I've never viewed younger guys as men.

‎I may be different.

‎Yeah, you may be different.

‎I liked it even more because ‎he didn't seem like the type to say that.

‎"Hey, he knows ‎how to say things like that?"

‎But I had quite a lot ‎of Black Heart Chips.

‎Who is intimidated by me?

‎It feels good.

‎Or is someone interested in Do-geon?

‎Did Ye-rim put them in?

‎To me, it seemed like ‎Ye-rim's second choice was Do-geon.

‎Can't you just be friends ‎with someone born in 2003?

‎Should we talk casually?

‎Feel free to.

‎-Are my dark circles really bad? ‎-What?

‎Are my dark circles bad?

‎-Me? ‎-Me.

‎I thought you meant me.

‎I wasn't asking you.

‎I have dark circles too.

‎That one vote that Ye-rim cast

‎-must be for Do-geon. ‎-It may be Do-geon.

‎I hope it works out.

‎-They look good together. ‎-They do.

‎They look good.

‎Maybe she wanted to ‎go on her next date with Do-geon.

‎Maybe that's why she put them in mine.

‎But when I think of Chae-rin, I feel bad.

‎It's okay. She'll meet someone else.

‎Kyung-ho…

‎wrote, "I had fun."

‎It was the same color as the first day.

‎I think I was too petty and cautious ‎when I only put one in the first time.

‎My feelings for her grew that much.

‎KYUNG-HO: 15 HEARTS → YE-RIM

‎I was relieved.

‎Perhaps I was being too negative.

‎I guess he hasn't completely let go of me.

‎That's what I thought.

‎But I had quite ‎a lot of Black Heart Chips.

‎I think I had about 30 to 40.

‎YE-RIM'S BOX ‎KYUNG-HO: 15, ??: 30 BLACK HEARTS

‎I think Kyung-ho put those in mine.

‎Maybe he thinks that ‎I'll choose him if I became king.

‎What?

‎Ye-rim, you got it completely wrong.

‎He didn't want me to become king,

‎so he put in the Black Heart Chips too.

‎I put 10 Black Heart Chips on Ye-rim.

‎You see, ‎I don't know exactly how Do-geon feels.

‎I thought Do-geon's second choice ‎was Ye-rim,

‎and Ye-rim's second choice was Do-geon.

‎CHAE-RIN: 10 BLACK HEARTS → YE-RIM

‎When I opened mine,

‎I saw that I had a lot of hearts.

‎But there were some Black Heart Chips.

‎Our plan was

‎to not put any Black Heart Chips ‎into each other's boxes.

‎Then why did I have Black Heart Chips?

‎I was just captivated by ‎what was in my Heart Chip box.

‎I didn't get any on the first day.

‎LEARN TO DANCE WELL, HONEYBEE ‎LET'S HAVE MORE FUN THAN ANYONE

‎I had three.

‎Wait, Ga-yeon may become king.

‎Everybody voted for her except one.

‎-The brown one is Kyung-ho, right? ‎-Yeah.

‎And the blue is Jung-min.

‎-Who's red? ‎-What about red?

‎I didn't have any yesterday, ‎but I have a lot today. It felt good.

‎"We'll have more fun ‎than ‎anyone ‎else ‎tomorrow."

‎Jung-min.

‎We were the ones that plotted,

‎so he knew we'd go on a date.

‎That's why he wrote, ‎"We'll have more fun than anyone else."

‎HONEYBEE

‎"Honeybee" is from Kyung-ho.

‎Kyung-ho and I were drawing

‎and I drew a honeybee.

‎I'll draw the eyes right here…

‎You can do the tail like this.

‎That's so cute.

‎KYUNG-HO: 14 HEARTS → GA-YEON

‎And…

‎"Learn to dance well."

‎I think it's Do-geon.

‎No, go like this.

‎Why can't I do that?

‎I can't do it. I can't grasp it.

‎Hey, you're good.

‎He's better than me.

‎I saw that.

‎-Good, right? ‎-You get a smiley sticker.

‎I'd like to get to know Ga-yeon better.

‎I want to learn more about her ‎so I wrote her a note.

‎DO-GEON'S VOTE ‎45 → CHAE-RIN, 5 → GA-YEON

‎10 BLACK HEARTS → JUNG-MIN

‎Do-geon, you traitor.

‎-What about Gireum Station? ‎-And "See you at Gireum Station?"

‎I thought it would be nice ‎to chat with all of them.

‎Because multiple votes were allowed,

‎I was their second choice.

‎GA-YEON'S BOX

‎JUNG-MIN: ??, KYUNG-HO: 14, ‎DO-GEON: 5, ??: 10

‎GA-YEON RECEIVED HEART CHIPS FROM 3 MEN

‎The female contestants ‎have finished checking their boxes.

‎You know what I just thought of?

‎Since we could cast multiple votes,

‎we can see the connections now.

‎Isn't that no fun?

‎To be honest, ‎haven't we all ranked the guys?

‎Some relationships may be solid,

‎but we could get to know…

‎-Get to know someone we haven't yet? ‎-Yeah.

‎She doesn't want to go out with Jung-min.

‎-Ga-yeon? ‎-Yeah.

‎If she goes on a date with him tomorrow, ‎it could make them an official couple.

‎She feels uncomfortable since ‎she wants to get to know the others too.

‎-That's why she said that. ‎-Yeah.

‎"Isn't that no fun?" ‎She was hinting at it.

‎-What's no fun? It's so fun. ‎-Yeah.

‎It's so fun for us.

‎-Hye-won is supposed to be king, right? ‎-Yeah.

‎She's dropping subtle hints to Hye-won.

‎"Even if you become king, ‎don't match me with Jung-min."

‎Male participants, ‎please begin checking your vote boxes.

‎It's so nerve-racking, isn't it?

‎The alphabet T?

‎I was a bit caught off guard.

‎I wrote "T" on the note.

‎Because I love peppermint tea…

‎Think of me when you see peppermint tea.

‎How do I get peppermint tea?

‎It was fun to see him trying ‎to get it for me. I was thankful too.

‎I wrote that so he would know it was me.

‎That's why it's alphabet T?

‎-She should have written T-E-A. ‎-Yes, write T-E-A.

‎-I thought it was T from the MBTI. ‎-Me too. I thought it was that.

‎The way Hye-won expresses herself ‎often goes beyond what I expect.

‎So I figured it was Hye-won.

‎It was cute. She wrote, "I like you."

‎JUNG-MIN'S BOX ‎GA-YEON: 26, ??: 20 BLACK HEARTS

‎I could tell it was from Ga-yeon.

‎It suited her personality.

‎When I first saw "IA,"

‎I wondered ‎what this person's intentions were.

‎On the first day, I did his makeup

‎because he said ‎he didn't know how to do it.

‎Let me do it for you, sir.

‎Do you have dry skin? You do.

‎I asked him to get me ‎an Iced Americano instead.

‎You have to make me coffee.

‎I will.

‎You're my makeup artist. Of course I will.

‎I remembered that conversation.

‎I'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU

‎I wanted to get to know Do-geon better,

‎so I wrote, "I'd like to talk to you"

‎and gave him one.

‎YE-RIM → DO-GEON ‎1 HEART

‎I felt more at ease ‎putting it in Do-geon's box.

‎I made that decision pretty quickly.

‎But I had more Black Heart Chips ‎than I expected,

‎so I had no clue who did it

‎or why someone would do that.

‎Black?

‎Why me? I don't get it.

‎Why did they give them to me? ‎Does someone not like me?

‎I don't like those Black Heart Chips.

‎What if you open your box ‎and only see Black Heart Chips?

‎Joo-heon, be honest.

‎If you didn't get any, ‎that would be more upsetting.

‎-Come on. ‎-Really?

‎"I guess I'm not intimidating!"

‎-Because you have none? ‎-Yeah.

‎I see it now.

‎I didn't have this feeling ‎on the first day.

‎But I really wanted to be king.

‎I didn't want to ask for any favors. ‎I wanted to accomplish it on my own.

‎Is that arrogant?

‎Anyway…

‎When I read the rules,

‎I could cast the Black Heart Chips ‎to anyone.

‎and I could exchange my Heart Chips ‎for Black Heart Chips.

‎As soon as I saw that,

‎I wanted to be closer to becoming king ‎even if it was in terms of probability.

‎I guess you can call it lust for power.

‎So I exchanged…

‎my chips.

‎KANG KYUNG-HO ‎60 HEARTS

‎Some may say I'm playing dirty,

‎but I wanted to be king that much.

‎I was that desperate.

‎TOTAL OF 70 BLACK HEART CHIPS ‎INCLUDING 10 PROVIDED INITIALLY

‎GIVING 10 BLACK HEART CHIPS EACH

‎I was hoping I had a bit more of ‎an advantage than the others.

‎All participants have finished ‎checking their vote boxes.

‎Did it scare you?

‎Moments ago, your Heart Chip votes

‎crowned the second king.

‎Please congratulate them ‎with a round of applause.

‎I had no doubt that our strategy worked.

‎I did suggest ‎that we should vote for Ga-yeon.

‎-Should we vote for Ga-yeon? ‎-Would that be better?

‎We were going to choose you.

‎Why?

‎-We thought it'd be better. ‎-When did it change?

‎Why did you want to make me king?

‎I would prefer to vote for you.

‎That was my plan.

‎-Why? ‎-Hmm?

‎I have my reasons.

‎I'm curious.

‎If Ga-yeon becomes king, ‎she can choose her own date.

‎I could find out how she feels.

‎That's why I gave her a lot.

‎JUNG-MIN'S VOTE: 65 → GA-YEON ‎57 → HYE-WON, 10 BLACK HEARTS → KYUNG-HO

‎Didn't he make an alliance?

‎Ga-yeon may become king.

‎If I became king, ‎my choice would be visible.

‎Jung-min has been openly pursuing me.

‎So if I choose him, everything is set.

‎But for me, there's Kyung-ho ‎who keeps grabbing my attention.

‎And Do-geon gave me hearts too.

‎It would be better ‎if I didn't become king.

‎The power to decide the date.

‎I really wanted to become king ‎because of that one thing.

‎I wanted to become king ‎and go on a date with Ga-yeon.

‎But what if Ga-yeon becomes king ‎and goes out with Kyung-ho?

‎Then, what about Jung-min?

‎Maybe they won't tell us.

‎Maybe not?

‎The second king is

‎Jung Hye-won.

‎It's Jung Hye-won.

‎By combining the total of the Heart Chips ‎and Black Heart Chips,

‎Jung Hye-won has become the second king.

‎She became king as I wanted.

‎The four of us did create that result.

‎They must have made Hye-won king.

‎The strategy of ‎the four people alliance worked.

‎JUNG-MIN → HYE-WON

‎HA-YOON → HYE-WON

‎HA-YOON: 65, JUNG-MIN: 57, ‎KYUNG-HO: 10 BLACK HEARTS

‎JUNG HYE-WON ‎112 HEARTS

‎To be honest, I was a bit embarrassed.

‎Compared to getting Heart Chips ‎because you're popular,

‎I got mine through

‎a lewd, manipulative ‎and calculated method.

‎So I couldn't just be happy about it.

‎I did a little acting.

‎You meant "sneaky" ‎instead of "lewd," right?

‎Oh, yes.

‎Sneaky.

‎What does "lewd" mean?

‎I anticipated getting ‎some ‎Black ‎Heart ‎Chips.

‎But I didn't expect ‎to get so few Heart Chips.

‎I HAD FUN

‎YE-RIM → KYUNG-HO ‎1 HEART

‎I didn't want to make him uncomfortable, ‎so I just put one in.

‎You can make him uncomfortable.

‎Make him uncomfortable.

‎I know. You can.

‎I know.

‎He's uncomfortable? So what?

‎You like him.

‎YOU'RE LIKE A K-POP IDOL

‎GA-YEON → KYUNG-HO ‎3 HEARTS

‎Regarding Kyung-ho, ‎my eyes are just drawn to him

‎and I'm curious about him. That's it.

‎It's not that I'm interested in him ‎as a man.

‎YE-RIM: 1, GA-YEON: 3 ‎JUNG-MIN: 10 BLACK HEARTS

‎KANG KYUNG-HO ‎-6 HEARTS

‎Jung Hye-won is the second king.

‎I had to keep a straight face ‎when the results came out.

‎But I bet it showed in that instant.

‎Her kingship stays intact ‎until the Heart Chip vote tomorrow.

‎I wasn't happy.

‎I did think that someone else ‎could become king,

‎but I added some of my strategy, right?

‎It wasn't some, actually.

‎But that didn't even work.

‎This is like a rollercoaster.

‎-Is it unbelievable? ‎-I'm so scared.

‎Now, the king's privilege ‎will be announced.

‎What if it's different from yesterday?

‎The second king, Jung Hye-won,

‎first, has the power ‎to decide tomorrow's dates.

‎Second,

‎she can choose one man and woman

‎to send to the glamping tent ‎for the night.

‎-Yes! Yes! ‎-Wow.

‎-Sending them out? ‎-No way.

‎Tomorrow's date is‎ a ‎one-on-one ‎date ‎arranged ‎by the king.

‎Everyone can go on the one-on-one date.

‎But one couple must go

‎on a date that costs 30,000 won.

‎-Where? ‎-What?

‎If you want to go on a date ‎with the person you want,

‎you must win the favor of the king ‎from now on.

‎The king has gotten another privilege.

‎Then, she can decide ‎everyone's one-on-on date?

‎Even today's glamping.

‎I'm going to start a mind game.

‎Mind game?

‎-Don't do that. ‎-Why not?

‎-What? ‎-You will all play a mind game.

‎Whoever loses ‎can choose someone and leave.

‎-That's rough. ‎-Not bad, right?

‎I can't do it.

‎-No! ‎-Come on!

‎THE 2ND KING'S BULLDOZER-LIKE APPROACH

‎She's the true tyrant.

‎Excuse me. Do you agree?

‎To be honest, I'm not a tyrant ‎like a certain someone.

‎-I agree, Your Highness. ‎-"Like a certain someone."

‎But please don't think of this ‎as a punishment…

‎because the tent is so beautiful.

‎Why don't you join the game too?

‎I am going to decide

‎everyone's date.

‎Hye-won's eyes suddenly got intense.

‎Oh, no. I'm scared.

‎Let's keep watching. Her eyes are…

‎Three, two, one.

‎-One. ‎-Two.

‎-Three! ‎-Three.

‎Four.

‎We both said three.

‎-What? ‎-"Three" was caught.

‎-Yes. ‎-Okay, let's start over then.

‎-What? ‎-No do-overs.

‎I don't know. I don't have VAR.

‎I have to catch you.

‎-It's up to the king. ‎-It's up to the king.

‎Okay. We leave it to you, Your Majesty.

‎We'll follow your ruling.

‎She's scary.

‎Someone like her shouldn't be king.

‎I think

‎I regretted it a bit.

‎When she obtained the power ‎after she became king,

‎I could see that she did ‎whatever she wanted.

‎I was scared at first.

‎And…

‎when I say, "Three, two, one…"

‎I saw her madness.

‎…anyone can start.

‎I sat at the end of the couch ‎and thought that.

‎I'm so sorry. ‎I want to play a slightly different game.

‎-She's annoying. ‎-She's toying with us.

‎She's driving me crazy.

‎There's nothing we can do.

‎Dum!

‎Dum!

‎-Dum. ‎-What's that?

‎Dum!

‎-Dum. ‎-Du… No!

‎THE TWO THAT DIDN'T SAY "DUM"

‎-Oh, no. ‎-Decide with rock-paper-scissors.

‎I don't know who won.

‎Do rock-paper-scissors.

‎Or should the two of you go?

‎Do whatever you want.

‎Hye-won.

‎All right.

‎Do you two want to go out?

‎-Why is she suddenly going off the rails? ‎-But,

‎she knows how show business works.

‎If she became king and said, ‎"What do you want to do?"

‎That's no fun. A tyrant is fun!

‎It is fun, but I don't think ‎it's intentional. That's what's scary.

‎That's true.

‎You know, she's so rude ‎to the people who helped her.

‎I know. Ga-yeon helped her out.

‎Do you two want to go out?

‎-We've encountered a real tyrant. ‎-No.

‎So that's a tyrant.

‎Shall we talk and decide among ourselves?

‎Isn't it better than rock-paper-scissors.

‎Rock-paper-scissors!

‎No. Hold on.

‎No.

‎What's wrong? I haven't said so.

‎VOIDED

‎You're such a tyrant.

‎I've never seen a king like that.

‎Rock-paper-scissors.

‎DO-GEON LOSES

‎Then, please choose someone ‎within three seconds.

‎I'll take Ga-yeon with me.

‎I'll take Ga-yeon with me.

‎-This is thrilling. ‎-I got goose bumps.

‎I'll take Ga-yeon with me.

‎What…

‎HER HAPPINESS WAS ‎SNATCHED AWAY IN 3 SECONDS

‎You gloated, didn't you?

‎You shouldn't have gloated!

‎-That was such a fun choice. ‎-For real.

‎If I go down, you go down.

‎-He's smart. ‎-"If I go down, you go down?"

‎I've been wanting to ‎get to know Ga-yeon for a while.

‎Since I happened to lose in the game,

‎I thought I could use ‎going together as a cover.

‎Because Chae-rin doesn't know ‎that I am interested in Ga-yeon,

‎and Ga-yeon was already forming ‎a relationship with Jung-min.

‎So I thought it turned out for the better.

‎If I go down, you go down.

‎"If I go down, you go down?"

‎Nice.

‎Well, I suppose

‎I agree with it.

‎Oh, my. Tonight will be crucial.

‎This is so fun!

‎"If I go down, you go down."

‎You were my first impression pick.

‎That's why

‎I became more interested in you.

‎-Ga-yeon only has eyes for Jung-min. ‎-No.

‎We keep meeting eyes.

‎I feel like he's holding on to me,

‎because he doesn't want to dump me.

‎You make me nervous.

‎I can't just sit still.

‎He only has qualities I don't like.

‎Maybe it's an opportunity.

‎-A turning point? ‎-I won't use my brain today.

‎I think Ga-yeon is most curious about me.

‎One thing goes wrong

‎and nothing goes my way.

‎Then, give up?

‎Who'll become king?

‎Make me king.

‎Today, I'll…

‎I'm worried those two conspired together.

‎Really?

‎I feel like ‎I'm casually seeing two people.

‎I don't know. I just want to ‎go on a date with you.

‎Let's go.
