On TV CHOSUN's hyper-realistic documentary variety show "Lovers of Joseon," the meeting between couples Bae Ki-sung♥Lee Eun-bi and Yoon Jung-soo♥Won Jin-seo was revealed. The episode recorded a nationwide viewership rating of 3.7% and a peak minute rating of 4.0%, ranking first in variety show ratings during the same time slot.

In the episode aired on the 9th, to celebrate Valentine's Day, the Bae Ki-sung couple prepared surprise events for each other. Bae Ki-sung invited his longtime friend of 30 years, Yoon Jung-soo, and his wife Won Jin-seo to serve a feast of nourishing food. Yoon Jung-soo proudly showed off a gold necklace gifted by his in-laws for his birthday, saying, "My mother-in-law bought it at the beginning of the year, so the gold price has gone up a lot."

Lee Eun-bi unexpectedly took an abalone from Bae Ki-sung's mouth and ate it herself, showing spontaneous skinship. Watching this, Hwang Bo-ra in the studio exclaimed, "Are you crazy?! Are you okay?!" in surprise. Then, Bae Ki-sung confessed that he developed sudden hearing loss after trying for eight consecutive days to conceive naturally. Yoon Jung-soo shook his head, saying, "Even a healthy person would die after eight days." He shared his own experience of severe headaches early in his relationship, when he had a CT scan at a university hospital, revealing he went through a similar crisis.

When Won Jin-seo revealed the cause of the headaches by saying, "Several times a day...," Bae Ki-sung made everyone laugh by saying, "Trying to have a baby, but the father might die first." Bae Ki-sung expressed gratitude to Yoon Jung-soo, who took good care of him during his unknown days, saying, "Whenever I wanted to give up my singing career, Jung-soo was there." Yoon Jung-soo added, "The only person who listens to all my stories is Ki-sung," showing their deep trust.

Hong Seok-cheon, who joined as a new lover, revealed the story of adopting his older sister's two children in the past. He explained, "I originally didn't consider adoption. But I was worried that the kids might be a burden as my divorced sister started anew," explaining the reason for adopting his nephews. His daughter expressed trust in Hong Seok-cheon, saying, "I have recognized him as my dad for a long time."

Hong Seok-cheon showed extreme nervousness before the formal meeting between families, but when he met his in-laws, he displayed his unique friendliness. While organizing the titles for both families, he lightened the mood by joking, "Can't I just call you 'brother'?" In a letter to his in-laws, Hong Seok-cheon sincerely said, "I'm quite an unusual person, so I worry if I might be a burden to you both."

His mother-in-law warmly responded, "My son-in-law says that's nothing in today's world," showing her warm feelings toward Hong Seok-cheon. In an interview with the production team, Hong Seok-cheon revealed his complex feelings, saying, "Family is a big shield. It's a task that needs to be solved..."

Meanwhile, "National Diva" Insooni is scheduled to join as a new lover. Stories about her proposal during a live radio broadcast and daily life with her husband will be revealed. "Lovers of Joseon" airs every Monday at 10 PM.

Also, Choi Sung-guk was scolded by Hwang Bo-ra and Kang Su-ji. On the broadcast on the 9th, Lee Eun-bi gave Bae Ki-sung chocolates and gifts for Valentine's Day. Bae Ki-sung was touched, saying, "Thank you so much. I didn't expect it at all."

When Choi Sung-guk mentioned that '~Day' events disappear after marriage, Hwang Bo-ra pointed out, "That's the problem with men." Kang Su-ji advised, mentioning Choi Sung-guk's wife who is 24 years younger, "She's too young, so those events shouldn't disappear." Choi Sung-guk tried to smooth things over by saying, "At least birthdays are celebrated," but Hwang Bo-ra said, "That's what you live for."

Choi Sung-guk is 55 years old and married his wife, who is 24 years younger, in 2022. They had their first son the following year.
