The production team conducted an interview with Lee Chae-young before the broadcast and released it.

-fromis_9 activities, as well as active in various fields such as music and entertainment. What are your impressions of joining as the youngest MC for South Gyu-hong PD's new work 'Contract Marriage'?

▶I really love dating shows, so I usually keep a close eye on them. However, this time, what excited me most was the opportunity to view the program from an MC's perspective rather than as a viewer. I am very grateful that they invited me to be the MC.

-When you first heard about 'Contract Marriage's' fresh setting of skipping the dating process and becoming a couple immediately upon first meeting, what was your first thought?

▶Usually, dating shows cover the process from the first meeting to dating, but this setting that boldly skips all those processes and starts with marriage felt so fresh and fun. I was curious about what events would unfold, and it felt equally interesting.

-What kind of perspective will you show between two seniors: Ahn Jung-hwan, who has been married for 26 years, and single Yeo Seong-eul (CEO) Hyo-yeon?

▶Depending on the age group, even when viewing the same situation, the emotions felt or points of empathy may differ. I want to show honest and natural reactions as much as possible so that viewers my age can empathize with them.

-Many MZ generations view marriage not as a necessity but as a choice. If there is a viewing point you would like to recommend to viewers your age, telling them they "must watch 'Contract Marriage'!"?

▶While many people do not think marriage is mandatory, precisely because of that, the setting of 'Contract Marriage' may feel even more interesting. The viewing point will likely be watching how people with different thoughts about the institution of marriage start a relationship through a contract and experience what emotions they feel and what changes they undergo while living together.

Meanwhile, 'Contract Marriage' will premiere on MBC Every1 and KBS Joy at 10:30 p.m. on Monday the 28th.
