Choi Jung-hyun, who gained recognition as the male lead (Young-soo) of SBS Plus and ENA’s dating reality show “I Am Solo” Season 32, has begun a contract marriage with Jeong Min-hyun, a participant from the chrysanthemum group in SBS Plus and ENA’s dating reality series “I Am SOLO: The Love Continues.” In the program, Choi Jung-hyun poses a blunt question to Jeong Min-hyun, asking, “How am I as a husband?”

In Episode 4 of KBS Joy and MBC Every1’s “Contract Marriage,” airing on the 19th in the afternoon, Choi Jung-hyun and Jeong Min-hyun are shown experiencing different lifestyles and recognizing the realities of marriage hidden behind their initial excitement. Choi Jung-hyun previously appeared as the male lead in the Season 32 divorced special episode and works as a certified public accountant. It is known that he has no children.

In this week’s broadcast, Jung-hyun reveals deepening affection for Min-hyun while watching him cook from behind. Expressing that it is unusual to see someone preparing food for her, she confesses, “I feel like I want to hug you from behind.”

Subsequently, while lightly enjoying a drink with the dinner prepared by Min-hyun, Jung-hyun reveals her overwhelmed feelings, saying, “My mind becomes hazy,” after Min-hyun shares his wish to have a child within one to two years. Eventually, Jung-hyun asks, “How am I as a husband?”

On the other hand, Min-hyun, who had trouble sleeping due to Jung-hyun’s snoring, expresses extreme fatigue with the muttered remark, “Ah, this is hard,” while preparing dinner for her husband. Previously, Min-hyun also expressed discomfort at the cigarette smell from Jung-hyun, who smokes.

In response, in an interview with the production team about his true feelings, Min-hyun confides, “I worry that he might have excessive narcissism,” highlighting a difference in temperature between him and Jung-hyun. Curiosity is piqued as to what answer Min-hyun will give to Jung-hyun’s question, which arose from issues of snoring and smoking.
