On TV CHOSUN's documentary variety show 'Joseon's Lover,' a four-way romance unfolded between the four male members of 'Yukandoit' and the female cast members during a trip to Gyeongju.

This episode featured a format in which the male cast members personally chose their partners for one-on-one dates lasting ten minutes. Yang Sang-guk went on a date with Kim Min-ji, while Yoo Il-han met with Lee Yu-bin again following their lunchbox date, reaffirming their mutual attraction. Meanwhile, Sim Soo-chang, who was not chosen during the lunchbox date, went on his first date with Lee Go-eun, and Hong Kyung-jun had his first date with Jeon So-hyun.

Sim Jae-won, who was chosen by Lee Go-eun and Jeon So-hyun, stayed at the accommodation. He later went on a 10-minute date with Lee Yu-bin, but was unable to keep the conversation flowing smoothly due to nervousness.

During the next round, when the women chose their partners again, Lee Go-eun selected Sim Jae-won and the two walked along a farm road together. However, when the path was blocked, Sim Jae-won attempted to carry Lee Go-eun across but failed, drawing sighs from the MCs.

Afterward, Lee Yu-bin chose Yoo Il-han again. The two expressed surprise upon discovering that they even share the same blood type and zodiac sign. Kim Min-ji had a catch date with Sim Soo-chang, where they shared an honest conversation in which Sim opened up about his inner feelings after retiring from baseball.

Sim Soo-chang revealed his reason for appearing on the show, saying, "After I quit baseball, I drank two bottles of soju at home and cried out of sadness."

Next, a 'random date' took place, where the women chose the men's personal belongings to determine their date partners. Lee Yu-bin selected Yang Sang-guk's sewing kit, leading to the pair's first date. Yang Sang-guk presented Lee Yu-bin with a handmade flower bracelet to express his interest and lightened the mood by saying, "That fate was stitched together by a needle."

Lee Yu-bin said, "I didn't think there would be one more person here. But I caught a passing fate." The two held hands and ran back into the accommodation together, creating a romantic atmosphere. Watching the scene, Choi Sung-guk commented, "From now on, it's war."

The dinner dates were conducted with the women waiting for the men at different restaurants. Yoo Il-han, Sim Jae-won, and Yang Sang-guk visited Lee Yu-bin at a Chinese restaurant in turn, resulting in a one-on-three date. Sim Soo-chang and Hong Kyung-jun visited Kim Min-ji at a gomtang (beef bone soup) restaurant. Lee Go-eun and Jeon So-hyun each dined alone.

A preview for the next episode introduced various dates including a 'Pepero game,' a swimming pool, and wine, romantic moments between Sim Jae-won and Lee Go-eun and between Hong Kyung-jun and Kim Min-ji, as well as the appearance of a new figure dubbed 'Maeginam' and a scene showing Jeon So-hyun's heart fluttering.

'Joseon's Lover' airs every Monday at 10:00 PM.
