Actor Lee Tae-sung went on a blind date with a dentist and veterinarian who is one year older than him, creating a romantic atmosphere.
In the episode of Channel A's "Groom's Class 2" broadcast on the 9th, Lee Tae-sung was shown going on a blind date accompanied by his pet dog.
On this day, Lee Tae-sung visited a pet cafe with his dogs. Shortly after, Jo Hee-jin, his blind date partner, appeared along with her pet dog Ddu-dong-i.
However, as soon as Lee Tae-sung saw Jo Hee-jin, he said, "I feel like I have met you before," drawing attention. Lee Tae-sung stated, "I met you in Cheongdam-dong. Your way of speaking is exactly the same. It seems to have been quite a while, maybe about 5 or 6 years ago," and asked, "Didn't you perform scaling on our Kaeo?"
It turned out that Jo Hee-jin was the veterinarian who had treated Lee Tae-sung's pet dog 5 to 6 years ago. Surprised by this unexpected connection, Lee Seung-chul remarked, "What an incredible combination."
In particular, it was revealed that Jo Hee-jin holds dual licenses as both a dentist and a veterinarian, catching the eye. She explained, "Currently, I work as a dentist about once a month, but I mainly focus on veterinary dentistry."

Lee Tae-sung revealed, "At the hospital, we met as doctor and pet owner, but when we talked in a private setting, it felt different." He continued, "Veterinarian Seol Chae-hyun is a close friend of mine, and she recommended that hospital at the time. She introduced you as a beautiful dentist," adding, "She told me to go and meet naturally, which was 5 or 6 years ago," surprising everyone.
The two also grew closer over their common ground of raising children. When Lee Tae-sung shared updates about his son in the third year of middle school, Jo Hee-jin revealed that she has a daughter in the first year of middle school. Jo Hee-jin confided, "I have been through pain once and I also have a child, so we have things in common, and I thought we might get along well."
She then said, "Recently, my daughter told me to 'go on some dates, Mom.' I was worried she would dislike it, but I felt both grateful and touched that she said that." In response, Lee Tae-sung empathized, saying, "When my son was young, I worried about what would happen if he didn't understand, but aren't children gradually growing up now?" He added, "I have become much freer from such discomfort or worrying about the child's reaction."
Afterward, the two continued a natural atmosphere while talking about their pets and daily life. Kim Yo-bank of Korea, who was watching, said, "They share a lot in common, and since they know each other, the conversation seems to flow without any hiccups." Lee Tae-sung also expressed his fondness by saying, "We get along well in conversation."
Meanwhile, Lee Tae-sung registered his marriage with a partner seven years older than him in 2012 but divorced by mutual agreement in 2015. He has a son who is currently in the third year of middle school.
