JTBC’s new variety show ″Love War″ is set to premiere on the 23rd at 8:50 PM. The program features dating experts Lee Hyori, Seo Jang-hoon, and Kim Hee-chul, who listen to stories from couples on the verge of breaking up and make decisions in this dating reality show.
In the main teaser and the first episode preview released ahead of the broadcast, a special diplomat lineup including Girls’ Generation’s Yuri, Ji Ye-eun, Lee Joon, and Ye-won appeared, drawing attention. Yuri caught eyes by telling her boyfriend, who was two hours late due to exercise, ″Just break up and date yourself,″ while Lee Joon showed deep engagement with the stories, saying, ″My heart is tightening.″
Lee Hyori gave realistic advice, telling a girlfriend struggling because of her boyfriend, ″Just meet another guy,″ and bluntly saying, ″Those kinds of stories are what make you feel bad.″ She also showed empathy and support for young people tired of dating.
Kim Hee-chul suddenly apologized while listening to a story. He was amazed, saying, ″She reminds me of my ex-girlfriend,″ and reflected on his past by saying, ″I used to be like that, why did I do that?″ He then stood up and bowed to apologize to his ex-girlfriend.
Seo Jang-hoon spoke frankly, saying, ″That’s not confidence, it’s rudeness,″ and gave a realistic answer to a client considering breaking up: ″This person is not your whole life.″
Meanwhile, stories of couples facing various conflicts, such as progressive-conservative couples, long-distance couples, and power-abuse couples, were previewed. The first episode preview revealed a story that even Seo Jang-hoon, the male diplomat, was embarrassed by, which included a male client who is a fitness trainer receiving an expensive luxury bracelet from a female member.
