The first episode reveals the exciting and tense moments of the initial meetings. As young men and women gather at the cohabitation venue, they exchange awkward greetings, marking the start of their shared living experience. The first challenge is the 'first impression choice,' where they must select the most appealing partner based solely on brief conversations, atmosphere, and eye contact. As parents watch from the studio, whether their instincts and guesses align or miss the mark becomes a key point of interest.

Adding to the intrigue, the identities of the children are gradually revealed, causing parents to react with surprise at their unexpected charms. Particularly, Kim Sung-joo's exclamation, "Call Min-guk quickly as a catfish!" highlights the appearance of an intriguing female participant, turning the studio into chaos.

The preview video for the first episode, offering a glimpse of this thrilling atmosphere, has also become a hot topic. Yoon Hoo, who has grown from a national nephew to a young man, captures attention as he takes a Polaroid photo with a female participant. The bold expressions of interest from 'My Child' continue, eliciting sighs from parents. As the children, once called 'My Child,' now display mature dating skills, parents are expected to express a mix of surprise, pride, and complex emotions.

The production team hints, "From the first episode, parents will inevitably be thrown into chaos. The dating dynamics have completely changed from Season 1." They add, "Notably, there are no participants without dating experience this season. With their experience, the flirting is bolder, and they pursue their feelings without hesitation. For parents, it's more nerve-wracking, and for viewers, more thrilling scenes will unfold."

'My Child's Romance 2' premieres on Wednesday, the 25th, at 8 PM.
