Kim Sung-soo made a surprising confession of love to Park So-yoon, who is 12 years his junior.
On the 7th episode of Channel A's 'Groom Class 2', aired on the 30th, the 'Sung-so Couple' Kim Sung-soo and Park So-yoon shared a candid dinner with their close friends Park Sang-myeon and Dong Hyun-bae. Meanwhile, Kim Yo-han reunited with 'Fitness Center CEO' Lee Joo-yeon, whom he had previously met on a blind date, after three weeks, showering her with charming events and flirting.
On this day, Kim Sung-soo and Park So-yoon went on a date in Kim Sung-soo's neighborhood for the first time. Responding to Park So-yoon's wish to see cherry blossoms, Kim Sung-soo prepared a 'cherry blossom road date' in front of his house. He confessed, "Four years ago, I saw cherry blossoms here with my father, and after he passed away, I never went to see them again." The couple reminisced about his father amidst the falling cherry blossoms, creating a touching moment. Throughout the date, Park So-yoon took care of Kim Sung-soo's mood and even drove him to his theater practice. She also handed him 'support rice cakes' with the message 'Please take care of our Sung-soo oppa' to give to his colleagues. Touched by Park So-yoon's support, Kim Sung-soo asked her to pick him up after his rehearsal, setting a dinner date.
After finishing his theater practice, Kim Sung-soo went to dinner with his 'real friend' Park Sang-myeon and Dong Hyun-bae, who is Big Bang Taeyang's older brother and Park So-yoon's 'male friend'. During the dinner, Kim Sung-soo openly showed his wariness towards Dong Hyun-bae, who displayed familiarity with Park So-yoon by shaking hands as soon as she arrived. Kim Sung-soo expressed jealousy, saying, "It took me a long time to hold hands with So-yoon," and was surprised to learn that Dong Hyun-bae spent Park So-yoon's birthday with her, commenting, "You two seem closer than usual." Dong Hyun-bae emphasized that they are just close friends with many mutual acquaintances, but Kim Sung-soo boldly declared, "I am in love with So-yoon!" causing a stir.
Sensing the tension, Dong Hyun-bae complimented Kim Sung-soo, saying, "So-yoon's standards have risen through various life experiences, which is why she met senior Kim Sung-soo," warming up the atmosphere. Later, when Kim Sung-soo stepped away, Park Sang-myeon asked Park So-yoon if she had any thoughts of marriage. Park So-yoon replied, "I can't lie, so yes, I do think about it." Watching from the studio, Kim Sung-soo smiled widely, and Park Sang-myeon referred to Park So-yoon as "sister-in-law," promising a generous gift of a gold key if they marry. He added, "My wife really likes Kim Sung-soo. Let's meet with her next time," concluding the meeting on a happy note.
