Based on the metropolitan area, the viewership rating soared to 4.8% and the highest viewership rating per minute was 5.3%, breaking the highest viewer rating again.

Episode 7 of 'Nam Nam', subtitled 'Two Heads', depicts the process of Eun-mi, Jin-hee, and Jin-hong getting to know and accepting each other in their own way. The three people's trip was jarring throughout due to Eun-mi unexpectedly accompanying Jin-hong on her trip for reconciliation.
For their first meal after arriving at their destination, Eunmi wanted to eat ribs and Jinhee wanted to eat shrimp. Jinhong, who was having a hard time choosing the menu, looked at the mother and daughter's thoughts and suggested eating the shrimp that Jinhee had chosen. Jinhong, who had an allergy to shellfish but was eagerly peeling shrimp for her mother and daughter, ended up getting red in the face while eating, and ended up suffering from hives and had to go to the hospital.
It was Jinhong's strong love that overcame allergies, but Eunmi and Jinhee's insides were burning as they watched. Even in the dorm after returning from the hospital, Eunmi looked at Jinhong who had been sleeping since early evening and asked in frustration, “Can you sleep when I’m next to you?” To make matters worse, the next morning, the three people who were planning their travel destination became even colder due to Jaehong taking Jinhee's side again.
The immediate tension between the three people was resolved through honest confessions to each other. After one argument, Eun-mi said to Jin-hee, “I’m sorry mom for making you hear the sound of goldfish poop back then. “I apologize,” he said, offering a sincere apology. Jinhee said, “At that time, it was okay because my mom ripped out all those ladies’ heads. I was wrong too. “I won’t do that again,” he replied. The sight of the mother and daughter achieving the goal of their reconciliation journey brought a happy smile to the faces of those watching.
Soon after, Eun-mi said to Jin-hee, “Looking at that person (Jin-hong), if it’s okay, he can just be my boyfriend. So, please don’t just do it alone and hate it,” he said. Jinhee, who had been lost in thought due to Eunmi's remarks, went to Jinhong and said, "I think the starting point was wrong," and "The past is just the past, and from now on I will only think about the present." Jin-hong also happily took the hand that Jin-hee extended first, and the uncomfortable relationship between Jin-hee and Jin-hong was resolved.
The three people's journey, which was risky, ended happily with Eunmi's cute confession, "Oppa, from today onwards, be my boyfriend." Although Jinhee was embarrassed by her mother's bold confession, she supported Eunmi and Jinhong's romance. Expectations are high for what kind of story the three people, who have developed a relationship where they understand and acknowledge each other, will tell in the future, and for 'South and South' to come with deeper relationships and stories.
Meanwhile, the ending of today's broadcast depicted a dizzying situation in which Eun-mi confronts the murderer. I am looking forward to the next story of 'Nam Nam' to find out what the identity of the mysterious man who has been chasing Eun-mi is and whether Eun-mi will be able to escape this desperate crisis.
