'I Am SOLO' (I Am Solo) 31st group faced a romance storm.
In the ENA and SBS Plus episode of 'I Am SOLO' broadcast on the 29th, the 31st group's romance war unfolded, with emotions swirling even more after the second date.
During the second date, Jeong-hee received the choice of Yeong-sik and Sang-cheol, whom she desired, and enjoyed a meal at a 'Guk-guk-ji' restaurant. However, Jeong-hee's gaze was fixed only on Yeong-sik. When the restaurant owner came to serve, she asked a sudden question: "Which of the two men seems better?" While settling the bill, the owner whispered only to Jeong-hee, "Yeong-sik's impression seems a bit better." Smiling at the corners of her mouth, Jeong-hee then entered a '1-on-1 conversation' first with Sang-cheol, but the two exchanged only superficial dialogue. In particular, Jeong-hee kept looking at her watch and couldn't focus on the conversation. She told Sang-cheol, "(In 'Solo Nation') let's just go with our hearts," drawing a line with him.
Following this, Jeong-hee sat across from Yeong-sik but could not hide her jealousy and anxiety. Jeong-hee said, "I felt comfortable talking with Mr. Sang-cheol, but conversations with Mr. Yeong-sik feel stifling," and demanded Yeong-sik's certainty. However, Yeong-sik replied, "It's true that you are my first priority, but I also want to get to know other people." Around the same time, Jeong-sook ate jjajangmyeon alone in the dormitory with a 'lonely set meal.' Later, in front of the production team, he revealed his complicated feelings: "I did feel a connection while jogging with Mr. Yeong-sik in the morning, but it was hard because I knew Mr. Jeong-hee and Mr. Yeong-sik had a close relationship. I don't know where to go."
The date between Ok-soon and Yeong-ho formed a vibe like a genuine couple from the start. The two had already had in-depth conversations about each other's views on love and daily lives, and Yeong-ho stated that he does not prefer someone with strong emotional fluctuations or a 'hot-tempered' tendency. Ok-soon continued her direct approach, saying, "Mr. Yeong-ho doesn't seem like someone who would make me angry." In the date between Yeong-ja and Yeong-cheol, conflicting values were revealed from start to finish, creating tension. Yeong-cheol repeatedly responded evasively to Yeong-ja's questions with "I don't know," while Yeong-ja expressed discomfort, saying, "The phrase 'I don't know' is forbidden!" After the date, Yeong-ja concluded the relationship in an interview with the production team, saying, "(Mr. Yeong-cheol) doesn't seem to be my style," while Yeong-cheol also expressed confusion, stating, "I have a bit of a liking, but I'm not sure."
Yeong-sook exuded an awkward atmosphere from the start of her date with Kwang-soo. Kwang-soo, judging that Yeong-sook's heart was already elsewhere, calmly offered words of support. However, Yeong-sook suddenly burst into tears in the car returning to the dormitory. The reason was Kwang-soo's comment that "It seems like you were at your most genuine tension in front of Mr. Yeong-cheol." Yeong-sook said, "Only after hearing Mr. Kwang-soo's words did I late realize my own feelings," surprising not only Kwang-soo but also the three MCs, Defconn, Lee Yi-kyung, and Song Hae-na. Upon returning to the dormitory, Kwang-soo went into his room alone and shed tears. Nevertheless, as soon as Yeong-sook saw Yeong-cheol with Kwang-soo, she called him out and said, "Earlier during the date, Mr. Kwang-soo said, 'You were the brightest when you were with Mr. Yeong-cheol,'" appealing that she had late realized her feelings. However, Yeong-cheol did not easily open his heart, saying, "Prove it with actions, not words."

After finishing the conversation, Yeong-sook returned to the common living room and sat next to Yeong-cheol, but when she saw Gyeong-su and Sun-ja talking nearby, she could not focus on her conversation with Yeong-cheol. Then, while Yeong-cheol was in the restroom, she immediately called out to Gyeong-su, saying, "Let's talk." In an interview with the production team, Sun-ja expressed discomfort, saying, "We were talking well, but it felt like Ms. Yeong-sook suddenly cut in." Yeong-sook asked Gyeong-su about his thoughts on her during their '1-on-1 conversation.' Gyeong-su confessed, "I keep thinking about both of you (Sun-ja and Yeong-sook)," and Yeong-sook mentioned both Yeong-cheol and Gyeong-su, saying, "I also have two people I'm interested in." Gyeong-su then said, "If I win the 'Super Date Pass' later, I'll use it on Ms. Yeong-sook," shaking Yeong-sook's heart.
Around the same time, Yeong-soo also started a conversation to advance his relationship with Yeong-ja. Yeong-soo began by saying, "I have completely settled things with (Sun-ja)," and declared a direct approach, saying, "From tomorrow on, I will only get to know you." Yeong-ja responded, "I understand what you mean," and accepted Yeong-soo's feelings. Jeong-hee and Yeong-sik also had another conversation at the dormitory. At this time, Jeong-hee took a strong move, saying, "If I feel jealous in the future, I think I might be able to settle things (with Mr. Yeong-sik)." However, Yeong-sik maintained his stance, saying, "It's true that you are the most important to me, but I also want to get to know other people." Ultimately, the two awkwardly concluded the meeting, saying, "Let's talk tomorrow night or the morning after tomorrow."
Meanwhile, Sun-ja waited for Yeong-sook and Gyeong-su to return, but when the two did not return for nearly two hours, she became angry. Even after the two appeared in the common living room and continued to stay together, Sun-ja exploded with resentment toward Ok-soon, saying, "Ah, I'm so annoyed." Eventually, Sun-ja called out to Gyeong-su, saying, "Mr. Gyeong-su, let's go for a walk," and bluntly asked, "Has your heart changed?" Gyeong-su replied, "Not much. In the current state, (you are) my number one!" But when Sun-ja asked again, "Then if you win the 'Super Date Pass,' will you use it on Yeong-sook?" he responded, "Can I say no comment?" pressing Sun-ja's anger button. Immediately after, Sun-ja expressed her disappointment in front of the production team, saying, "Is that person playing with me? I tend to lose half my charm toward someone who doesn't give certainty."
While Gyeong-su was absent, Yeong-sook told Yeong-cheol, who seemed somewhat awkward, "Let's talk." Yeong-cheol honestly revealed his disappointment, saying, "It seems important that you are more attracted to someone (Gyeong-su) who hasn't shown anything," expressing his feelings toward Yeong-sook, who showed more interest in Gyeong-su than in him. Yeong-sook asked, "Then who are you more interested in? Me or Ms. Yeong-ja?" Yeong-cheol replied, "I don't want to answer," but added, "I pursue natural looks and personalities." Yeong-sook concluded the conversation by saying, "That's exactly Ms. Yeong-ja." With the meeting ending awkwardly, Yeong-sook stated in an interview with the production team, "Mr. Yeong-cheol's tone felt a bit harsh, making me feel I can't handle it. So, the person left for me is Mr. Gyeong-su." Following this, Yeong-sook told Sun-ja, "Let's talk separately," and conveyed her determination to go straight for Gyeong-su, while Sun-ja notified that she and Yeong-sook were now completely separated as rivals, saying, "I don't think I can open my heart to you in the future."
Immediately after, in the preview, Jeong-hee is shown coldly reacting after seeing Yeong-sik enjoying a 'morning running secret rendezvous' (?) with Jeong-sook, saying it feels like "seeing a cheating boyfriend." Additionally, Ok-soon is shown siding with Yeong-sook, saying, "(Sun-ja) almost tied Gyeong-su up. The two don't fit," creating tension. Moreover, a scene where Sun-ja accidentally overhears their conversation was captured, raising curiosity about the romance war of the 31st group, where a full-scale rift has begun.
