Kwon Ye-chan “Ahn Do-yun, Kim Da-hye, and Choi Jeong-yun all tied for 3rd place”

Lawyer Kwon Ye-chan created an unpredictable turn of events by simultaneously designating three female participants as his interests. In the broadcast of SBS's 'Children's Release Project: Training Blind Date 2' aired on the 23rd, mothers who obtained the right to secret conversations stepped forward for their children's marriage, causing shifts in the relationships among the cast. The episode recorded a peak viewership rating of 2.3% in the metropolitan area (Nielsen Korea).

Mothers' Intervention and Shifting Relationships

The mother of S-Electronics employee Ahn Do-yun met with Kwon Ye-chan and appealed to the stability of their family environment by mentioning that the father is a dentist. The mother of former Miss Korea Choi Jung-yoon called announcer Lee In-kwon to help resolve misunderstandings with her daughter. Lee In-kwon expressed his intention to pursue her again, saying he gained the energy to make a move on Choi Jung-yoon.

Love calls for Kim Da-hye also continued. As both Kwon Ye-chan's mother and Kim Dong-young's mother chose Kim Da-hye at the same time, she emerged as a popular figure. In this process, Kim Da-hye felt confused and even shed tears. During a Jenga game, Kim Da-hye declared, "There is a possibility that my preferred interest might change," foreshadowing a change in her relationship with Kang Shin-woo, who had been pursuing her directly.

"What on earth is a 'joint 3rd place'?" Even Seo Jang-hoon was bewildered

Following the information provided by the mothers, four women visited Kwon Ye-chan's room in succession. In a conversation with his mother, Kwon Ye-chan named Ahn Do-yun, Kim Da-hye, and Choi Jung-yoon as his current interests. He described all three as being in a "joint 3rd place," explaining that he had not yet decided on 1st and 2nd place. Watching this, MC Seo Jang-hoon expressed his bewilderment, saying, "At this rate, they'll be going home crying. What on earth is a joint 3rd place?"

Kwon Ye-chan meticulously noted down the information his mother provided in a notebook. After hearing about the family situation from Ahn Do-yun's mother, he said regarding Ahn Do-yun, "I thought he was someone who wouldn't react to things like that, but I found it somewhat tempting. At least it won't give me much to think about." Ahn Do-yun also expressed a desire to talk to Kwon Ye-chan upon learning that his mother had chosen Kwon Ye-chan as her 'one pick.'

Conflicting Hearts and the Flow of Conversation

Yang Ha-yoon asked Kwon Ye-chan if she was included among the three people he was interested in, but received a negative response. Kang Shin-woo visited Kwon Ye-chan, who had received three votes, to ask about his date, to which Kwon Ye-chan replied, "I've become more curious about Do-yun and Jung-yoon."

A subtle tension flowed during the conversation between Lee Kang-hyun and Kwon Ye-chan. Lee Kang-hyun, who had talked with him on the first night of the training, said, "I felt like I was the only one trying," to which Seo Jang-hoon responded, "Have you realized it now?" Lee Kang-hyun mentioned wanting to talk about religious views, but Kwon Ye-chan appeared uncomfortable.

The fourth person to visit Kwon Ye-chan was Kim Da-hye. When Lee Kang-hyun did not vacate the spot, Seo Jang-hoon burst into laughter, saying, "Why aren't you switching? You said you talked for 15 minutes." When Kim Da-hye brought up religion, Kwon Ye-chan confessed, "I thought everyday conversation should come first, and religious talk would come after that." In an interview, Kwon Ye-chan added, "I no longer know if Da-hye is my 3rd choice. If I preferred that kind of thing, it would have been faster to just look for a woman at church." SBS 'Training Blind Date 2' airs every Thursday at 9 PM.
