He said that his ideal type does not matter whether he is a remarried woman or a woman with children, and that the impression of the other person is important. Dr. Oh Eun-young, who heard the concerns, adds to the seriousness of the concerns by adding that one in 10 people in their 50s are 'twilight singles' who have never been married like Shim Hyeon-seop, and that if you are single in your 50s, there is a high possibility that you will remain single for the rest of your life.

In order to analyze Shim Hyun-seop's blind date failure, an instant blind date is also conducted. Shim Hyun-seop is a bit nervous for a moment when the blind date appears, but soon he takes control of the atmosphere and leads the conversation. However, when Shim Hyun-seop tries to make an unreasonable personal move to lighten the mood, Dr. Oh Eun-young, who was watching the blind date with eagle eyes, catches the introverted side of Shim Hyeon-seop's nervous and rambling appearance. Because he doesn't feel comfortable with the tension and tries to hide it, he keeps making jokes over and over again.

Dr. Oh Eun-young looks at the results of a preliminary test and analyzes that Shim Hyeon-seop is a person with high vitality, but can become irritated if the other person cannot keep up with his vitality. Shim Hyun-seop, who sympathized with this, said that he had once asked someone sharply, "Are you thinking of something else?" when he saw someone who didn't react much to his joke.

The other person's reaction is only up to you." Offers advice.

Accordingly, Shim Hyun-seop sympathizes with the analysis, saying that he focuses a lot of concentration when performing a joke, and that he gets angry without realizing it if he thinks something is interfering with it. Then, Dr. Eun-young Oh analyzes that Hyun-seop Shim seems to value making people laugh more than anything else, and wants to find out more about why he is obsessed with laughter.

Shim Hyun-seop, lost in thought for a moment, confesses that in the past, he was unable to make his mother laugh. She tells the story of having to take care of her mother for 12 years, and honestly reveals that it was so difficult that she ran away from the hospital five times. Dr. Oh Eun-young, who could not help but feel sad, analyzed that if caregiving continues for a long period of time, there is a high possibility of experiencing 'caregiver burnout'. In addition, the family members who take care of the patient sometimes become the second patient, touching the pain that Shim Hyun-seop must have endured alone for a long time.

Dr. Oh Eun-young then points out that Shim Hyun-seop lived as his mother's guardian, raising the possibility that he may have had a hard time comfortably accepting the warm love his parents gave him. To find out the reason, we ask questions about Shim Hyun-seop's father.
