Love Sparks Fly Between 'I Am Solo' Stars Sang-cheol and Ok-soon

Sang-cheol from the 29th season of 'I Am Solo' has openly expressed his affection for Ok-soon from the 13th season.

On the YouTube channel 'Chonjang Entertainment TV-Chonjang Tavern,' operated by ENA and SBS PLUS's 'I Am Solo,' a video titled 'Sister, if you drink this, you're dating me? It's the love shot' was uploaded.

In the video, Young-cheol from the 29th season asked Sang-cheol, "I heard you really like Ok-soon from the 13th season." Sang-cheol confirmed, "That's correct," and revealed that he had actually sent a DM to Ok-soon during the 2023 airing of the 13th season of 'I Am Solo.'

Sang-cheol didn't just send one or two DMs to Ok-soon; he consistently reached out and even received replies. The two continued to exchange DMs several times. Young-cheol, surprised by the age difference, asked, "It's been three years, and you were 27 when you sent a DM to a woman in her 30s?"

Ok-soon was also surprised and asked, "Did you send it knowing my age?" Sang-cheol confidently replied, "What does age matter?" showcasing his bold personality. Young-soo from the 15th season, listening nearby, humorously added, "When you're young, age doesn't matter."

Sang-cheol also revealed that during the pre-interview for the 29th season, he told PD Nam Gyu-hong that his ideal type was Ok-soon from the 13th season, and "All my friends know it." Ok-soon proposed a love shot to Sang-cheol, and the two shared one. Sang-cheol even fed Ok-soon like a mother bird.

In an interview, Ok-soon stated, "As you know, I'm the type to express if I don't like something. If I didn't like him, I would have said so. Being fed like that is something I haven't experienced in a long time as a solo."

Sang-cheol continued to show his affection by commenting on Ok-soon's attire and declaring her the prettiest among the 'I Am Solo' participants. He asked Ok-soon, "Didn't you say you don't like younger guys?" to which Ok-soon replied, "You can change that," leaving Sang-cheol thrilled.
