Actor Lee Jong-hyuk has chosen to publicly apologize for his son, Lee Tak-soo’s, use of informal language. The new variety show ″My Child’s Love,″ co-produced by tvN STORY and Tcast E Channel, is set to premiere on the 20th. The show features parents observing their children’s romantic relationships, exploring the emotions and growth parents experience as they witness these interactions.

The cast includes MCs Kim Sung-joo and Chuu, along with fathers Lee Jong-hyuk, Park Ho-san, Ahn Yoo-sung, Lee Cheol-min, Kim Dae-hee, and Jeon Hee-chul. While the fathers of sons appear relaxed, those with daughters seem more anxious. In the first episode, the children begin their initial meeting by exchanging names during a five-day camp, attempting to ease any awkwardness, while their parents display even more nervousness.

The first mission consists of three parts: home decorating, cooking, and grocery shopping. Participants are paired for mini-dates, and when Lee Tak-soo takes the lead on grocery shopping, Lee Chul-min’s daughter, Lee Shin-hyang, volunteers to join him at the supermarket. Lee Chul-min humorously notes, ″Shin-hyang really hates going to the supermarket. If you tell her to go with you, she’ll never go,″ which elicits laughter from the group.

Lee Tak-soo and Lee Shin-hyang discover a shared taste in music, forming a unique bond. During their shopping trip, Lee Tak-soo addresses Lee Shin-hyang informally, which prompts an angry reaction from Lee Chul-min, who demands a public apology from Lee Jong-hyuk. This moment brings laughter to the studio audience.

At the dorm, Park Ho-san’s son, Park Jun-ho, and director Jeon Hee-chul’s daughter, Jeon Soo-wan, take charge of decorating, while Ahn Yoo-sung’s son, Ahn Sun-jun, and Kim Dae-hee’s daughter, Kim Sa-yoon, continue their cooking date. Ahn Sun-jun impresses with a ″complimentary flirtation″ he learned online, leaving the fathers amazed by his charm. He also shares cooking tips he picked up from his father to win over the girls.

Ahn Yoo-sung makes a bold promise, stating, ″If this show does well, I’ll open a store for you,″ and adds, ″The store will generate over 10 million won in sales,″ which earns a positive reaction from the other fathers.

The introduction of Megi-nam, a character who adds tension to the show, captivates both the children and their fathers. Megi-nam’s tall stature and good looks draw attention, raising curiosity about how the children’s romantic stories will develop.

″My Baby’s Romance″ premieres on the 20th at 8 p.m. The program aims to provide fresh insights into the parent-child relationship and is anticipated to mark a new era in dating reality shows.
