'I Am SOLO' (I Am Solo) 33rd batch of lifelong singles brought laughter and excitement with '100% pure' romance from their self-introductions to their first-ever date selections.

In the ENA and SBS Plus episode of 'I Am SOLO' broadcast on the 19th, the 33rd batch was shown moving into their first dates after completing their self-introductions.

On this day, Kwang-su revealed an impressive resume during his self-introduction: "After passing the administrative civil service exam, I am currently working as a Grade 5 public official at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport." He then added, "Actually, dating was my sixth priority in life, but I decided to take courage because I feel it's time to change my life paradigm," earning applause from everyone. Sang-cheol introduced himself as a "fifth-year postal delivery worker" and said, "My ideal type is someone petite and energetic. Since I enjoy driving, I can handle almost any distance," showing his willingness to go on long-distance dates.

The female lifelong singles also revealed surprising charms during their self-introductions. Young-sook, who appeared in a white dress like a goddess, showcased her fluent Japanese skills before saying, "I studied abroad in Japan for about three years and currently run a wellness center. I want to meet a man who can lead me." Jeong-sook mentioned she works in the marketing team at a hospital and shared, "I enjoy traveling and open runs. I once waited six hours at a famous restaurant," revealing her passionate side. Soon-ja said she works in the marketing team of a food startup and added, "I like someone who knows how to practice self-restraint and finds happiness in small things." Young-ja, an anesthesiology nurse, smiled while saying, "When I look at the opposite sex, I value appearance and prefer 'tofu faces.'" Ok-soon started by saying, "I think I might be the youngest here," then revealed she was born in 1999 and is a cellist, drawing admiration from everyone. She even imitated character voices to show off her cute charm. Finally, Hyeon-sook confidently stated, "I work at a public institutional investor in Seoul, and my strength is that I can speak 3.5 languages."

After the self-introductions ended, the male lifelong singles from the 33rd batch began to move actively. Young-cheol approached Young-sook and requested a walk. He said, "You are the only one among those I was interested in whom I haven't spoken with yet," making an active appeal. Young-sook replied, "Thank you so much for having the courage." After their conversation, Young-sook shared in an interview that she felt happy and excited, revealing her growing affection for Young-cheol. Young-sik proposed a walk to Jeong-sook. He asked, "Did I happen to be among the men you wanted to talk to?" Jeong-sook explained, "Actually, I thought you weren't there. Since things seemed to be going well with others, I didn't think there was room for me to step in." The two then discussed travel, and Jeong-sook flirted by asking, "If we get along well, would you like to go (travel) together?" She even wiped dust off Young-sik's face, creating a fluttering moment. After the conversation ended, Jeong-sook told in an interview that she felt ticklish and revealed her heart had been won over by Young-sik.

On the other hand, Sang-cheol had a '1-on-1 conversation' with Young-ja, but he seemed flustered as the atmosphere grew awkward. Unlike her first impression, Young-ja carefully confessed that her affection for Sang-cheol had decreased as she got to know him better. In particular, she revealed that when Sang-cheol speaks, his habit of moving his eyebrows is "cringey." Sang-cheol replied, "I'll try my best not to do it," but later in an interview, he showed a dejected look, saying, "(That comment) was quite shocking." While everyone else moved actively, Kwang-su wandered alone outside the accommodation. He muttered to himself, "Should I go for a walk?" or "Should I talk with the female singles?" and kept worrying, "Should I go (to the women's dorm)? Should I not?" Eventually, he ran to the dormitory restroom without being able to request a conversation. Shortly after, in an interview, Kwang-su explained, "My stomach was slightly hurting at the time," but then coolly admitted, "It wasn't that bad. Honestly, it sounds like an excuse."

Shortly after, 'First Date Selection' began. As the male singles made their date requests, Young-su shouted loudly first, "Be my first love!" However, no one chose him. Next, Young-ho delivered a smooth line: "Be my first love. No, how about being my last love?" Soon-ja and Young-ja chose Young-ho, making the '2-on-1 date' happen. Young-sik received picks from Jeong-sook, Young-sook, and Ok-soon, becoming the popular man. Young-cheol and Sang-cheol unfortunately ended up with '0 votes.' In particular, Sang-cheol, who had received 3 votes in the 'First Impression Selection' the previous day, expressed sadness at his changed status after only one day when he was confirmed to have a solitary meal, saying, "It feels like everything has been reset." Kwang-su emerged as a dark horse. When Hyeon-sook responded to Kwang-su's date request, the '1-on-1 date' was confirmed. Kwang-su was so happy that his face and ears turned bright red upon seeing Hyeon-sook appear.

Meanwhile, Young-su, unaffected by the shock of receiving '0 votes,' showed his sincere love for late-night snacks. When Young-ho beside him asked, "Is there anything you'd like to eat?" and offered to buy him a late-night snack after the date, he requested chicken. He also made additional orders such as, "Is it possible with Hot Crispy? Mostly drumsticks, two large Cokes," bringing out salty laughter from everyone.

Young-sik moved into the first date and impressed the female singles with his meticulous manners. Young-sik had printed out a file organizing lists of nearby restaurants and cafes, opened car doors for all three women equally, and peeled shrimp by hand to serve them one by one at the dining table. However, the atmosphere gradually shifted from a date to something like a friendly gathering, and Young-sik expressed regret, saying it felt "like eating with friends." He then revealed his surprising inner thought: "My first choice is still Young-ja," leaving everyone surprised. In the following preview, Young-ho was seen taking care of Soon-ja first during the '2-on-1 date,' making Young-ja look upset. Additionally, scenes were captured where Young-su used mathematical knowledge such as Fermat's Little Theorem to engage in 'academic flirting,' raising expectations even higher.
