22-year-old aspiring idol receives dating counseling after losing 5.4 million won

An aspiring idol revealed that he would pay 5.4 million won to receive dating counseling.

In KBS Joy's 'Ask Anything' broadcast on the 24th, the story of an aspiring idol's unrequited love was revealed.

On this day's broadcast, the client and his friend appeared together. The 22-year-old client said, “I was taking a leave of absence from school and preparing to become an idol.” Seo Jang-hoon asked, “What brought you here?” The client replied, "I came because of love. Once I change my mind, I like someone for 4 to 5 years."

The client confessed, "I had a crush on a senior in high school. I couldn't give up on that senior, so I saved up 100,000 won each for part-time work at a logistics center, took out a loan, paid 5.4 million won, and received dating advice from a YouTuber consultant for a year." . Seo Jang-hoon, who heard this, said, “I should do that too.”

The client requested the story, saying, “This time, I found someone I like, but I just can’t give up.” Lee Soo-geun was curious about the 5.4 million won love counseling. The client explained, “I go to a class once a month for a year. I also provide peer psychology.” Lee Soo-geun said, “If you received that, wouldn’t you need to come here?” The client honestly said, “I still don’t know.”

Seo Jang-hoon asked, “Can a dating coach chat on your behalf?” The client answered “Yes.” Lee Soo-geun said, “Isn’t that fake love? Even though I’ve heard of designated drivers.” The client confessed, “It’s not all right. A little bit of it for everyone I meet.” Lee Soo-geun said, “You lost 5.4 million won?” The client said, “When I focus on something, my eyes wander.”

Seo Jang-hoon asked about the client's unrequited love. The client replied, “We met at a club.” According to the client, the person he was in love with was an aspiring actor. The client said, “It’s just my style. I have your phone number.” The client's friend explained, "I don't get a lot of replies. They're not interested." He also emphasized, "Looking at the atmosphere, I don't think so. It's not the attitude of someone who is interested."

The client said, "I can't give up. I can't concentrate because of that." The client is still receiving counseling by paying 220,000 won per session. Seo Jang-hoon said, "How much do you want to pay today? I'm so angry that I need to get money from this guy." Lee Soo-geun said, “You want to do it and have a dream. Will you achieve it?”

Seo Jang-hoon said, "If you are thinking about becoming an idol, you shouldn't have that kind of mindset. You shouldn't be crazy about men and think that you can't do anything. If you start later than others, you can't become an idol even if you do your best or decide to live or die. “He said.

The client lost 8kg by not eating anything for a month, but he did not respond well to his crush. Seo Jang-hoon asked, “How much part-time work do I have to do to earn 5.4 million won?” The client said, "I go to the distribution center almost every day and stay there all day. I couldn't tell my parents. But I got caught and there was a conflict."

Seo Jang-hoon advised, "Don't get caught up in unrequited love. There are a lot of people who like you. So don't act like that for no reason." Lee Soo-geun also said, "Let's live differently now. Aren't we still young? Why are we wasting our precious time like that?"
