[Edaily Starin Gim Ga Yeong Reporter] On SBS’s “The Project to Set Our Children Free—Group Blind Date 2,” Kang Shin-woo, a traditional Korean medicine doctor who had been fixated solely on Kim Da-hye, goes off the rails.
In Episode 7 of “Group Blind Date 2,” airing on the 6th, changes occur in the love lines with just one day left until the final selection. In particular, reports indicate that Kang Shin-woo, having misinterpreted Kim Da-hye’s feelings, will go on a reckless rampage.
Feeling pressured by Kang Shin-woo’s attitude—which suggests he’s ready to book a wedding venue at any moment—Kim Da-hye has decided to put an end to things with him. As Kim Da-hye puts up a wall against Kang Shin-woo’s direct advances and gradually begins to distance herself, Kang Shin-woo even tries to use God as a pickup line, saying, “Isn’t it part of God’s plan that the person I’m attracted to is non-religious?” In response, Kim Da-hye brushes off his attempt, replying, “I’ll pray about it.”
Kang Shin-woo’s reckless behavior begins in response to Kim Da-hye’s stonewalling. He tries to find the reason for her change of heart in her mother, even going so far as to try to sway her mother to help win Kim Da-hye back. In response, Kim Yo-han is baffled, asking, “Why is that guy acting like that?” while Seo Jang-hoon expresses his concern, saying, “Shin-woo has lost his mind.” Curiosity is mounting about the direction of this love line and what outcome Kang Shin-woo’s desperate efforts to win back Kim Da-hye’s heart will bring.
Choi Jeong-yun emerges as the most popular woman on *Group Dating 2*, having been chosen by no fewer than three men. News anchor Lee In-kwon, lawyer Kwon Ye-chan, and professional golfer Moon Seong-mo are all vying fiercely for a date with her. All eyes are on which of the three will ultimately win Choi Jeong-yun’s heart.
With Kang Shin-woo’s outburst following an unexpected setback and Choi Jung-yoon’s rise to the most popular woman after being chosen by all three men, anticipation is mounting for the broadcast of “Group Dating 2” as the show enters its final stages, leaving viewers wondering how these conflicting true feelings and unpredictable love lines will ultimately play out.
“Group Dating” is a program in which 10 single men and women looking to get married, along with their 10 mothers, stay together for five nights and six days, working toward the single goal of “marriage.” It gained immense popularity after airing last January. Building on the success of Season 1, Season 2 has been produced and is drawing significant viewer interest.
“Group Matchmaking 2” airs every Thursday at 9 p.m. on SBS.
