‘Myeongdong Sarangbang’, which surpasses the 19+ level
In the 5th episode of ENA's entertainment program 'Myeongdong Sarangbang', which aired on Thursday, March 2, the group meeting scene of the 16 members of the second season was depicted. The cast of the second season heated up the home room with a charm reminiscent of last week's event, and on this day, they ignited an upward trend in viewership ratings with more lively talk and entertainment than ever before.
First, Hype Boy's Jo Gyu-hyuk, who captivated everyone with his delicious tambourine performance last week, turned the scene upside down by receiving a total vote from Eunto Girls in the first impression vote. While Jo Gyu-hyuk chose Eunto Girls' Lee Hye-rim as his first pick, the three remaining Eunto Girls members shouted, "Wait a minute!" Cho Gyu-hyuk, who was selected by four people, chose his first pick, Lee Hye-rim, as his partner. In response, Chae Jeong-an said, “A fun man is so overwhelming,” and Seo Jang-hoon was surprised, “Your life will never be like this again. Enjoy it while you can.”
Hype Boy Kim Hyeon-jae and Shoulder Gangster team Choi Jong-young and Kang Min-soo expressed their feelings for 'Ancient Suzy' Na-rae, and Kang Min-soo was chosen as her partner. However, Na-rae's first pick was Ahn Si-hyun of the Shoulder Gangster team. Na-rae said, "I was sad that the person I wanted didn't come out," and "I chose the person who seemed the most gentle among these people," and said the reason for choosing Kang Min-soo.
While two couples were selected in the first round, they later said, "Get out!" The procession continued, shocking everyone. However, the first impression voting on 'Myeongdong Sarangbang' is adding to the fun with an unconventional rule that male contestants can try again until they become partners. Meanwhile, Hype Boy's Ahn Byeong-seon achieved a new record of '5 knocks' by being kicked a whopping five times. Ahn Byeong-seon made people laugh by slyly saying, “At that time, I really wanted to go home, but I got used to it.”
The eight couples who completed the party(?) had time to explore each other while eating a packed lunch. At this time, a subtle fight took place. ‘Ancient Suzy’ Na-rae, who chose Ahn Si-hyun as her first pick, ended up sitting at the same table with the couple Ahn Si-hyun and Heo Si-won. Na-rae continued to be conscious of Ahn Si-hyun and stimulated Heo Si-won by saying, “You look like Park Seo-joon.”
Meanwhile, Heo Si-won rarely talked to Ahn Si-hyeon, raising questions. An embarrassed Ahn Si-hyeon asked, "You don't normally say anything?", and Heo Si-won confessed her unique situation in an interview with the production team, saying, "I couldn't really talk to the person I liked because I couldn't look at them well."
The truth game, which was the most talked about topic in Changan, was also the fun of the fun. In particular, on this day, in the first place game, questions and comments of a breathtaking level were poured out, making the 4 MCs crawl. First, Hye-rim Lee chose Ahn Si-hyeon and Ahn Byeong-seon when asked, "Who will be the coolest and prettiest when you have a son or daughter?" In response, Park Ha-sun stuck out her tongue and said, “This game is cruel,” causing big laughter.
Afterwards, Ahn Si-hyun devastated the scene with an unexpected bombshell, "I still want to have children." While the studio was filled with shouts, Ahn Si-hyun made a misunderstanding by saying, "I've thought I wanted to have a child for a long time," making the audience burst into laughter.
After being asked, "Who wants to go on a 2-day, 1-night trip after 'Myeongdong Sarangbang' ends?", Na-rae heated up the scene with an odd comment, "Do we have to sleep together for one night?" In response, Yang Se-chan said, "I thought it was Park Na-rae. I'm in a cold sweat," and Park Ha-sun said, "It's my style. I love it."
In addition, 'Couple Limbo', an upgraded couple game, provided a thrill that made your hands sweat. In particular, the Shoulder Gang team, made up of national water polo players, heated up the scene with an overwhelming performance. The winning couple was Ahn Si-hyeon and Heo Si-won. Ahn Si-hyeon successfully passed the 65cm limbo while holding Heo Si-won and obtained a ticket to the hotel buffet.
A shocking twist followed. Jo Gyu-hyuk, who was selected as the first pick by the four Eunto Girls, was humiliated with 0 votes in the Love Serenade corner. Lee Hye-rim, who was Jo Gyu-hyuk's primary partner, revealed the reason for her change of heart, saying, "I thought Gyu-hyuk would be fun and active, but I think he was a little burdensome." In response, Jo Gyu-hyuk expressed his determination, saying, “It’s complicated, but that man, Jo Gyu-hyuk, will not back down from here.”
It was an episode where 4MC's sense of trustworthy entertainment was also evident. Seo Jang-hoon, a self-proclaimed love counselor, impressed the team with his detailed dating tips, saying, "I'll tell you from a man's heart," while Chae Jeong-an and Park Ha-sun made comments like the easy-going older sister next door, and Yang Se-chan definitely impressed viewers with his crazy and tense remarks. I was possessed.
Meanwhile, ‘Myeongdong Sarangbang’ airs every Thursday at 10:20 p.m.
