I too think they suit each other well.

I think the single zone is the right choice, unless you are very sure the person is the one. The only couple I think who should be in the couple zone is the couple with unique common interest in spiritual sayings(?) I don't know what they call it. But that couple is the only couple in my opinion who should've been sure enough to go to the couple zone, the rest should've gotten to know each other more in the single zone.

Me too. I tried to get other people to watch with me, but they weren't interested. The only place I can gossip about them is online. LOL

No, you are right, no one was that rotten. At least out of the people they focus on. There are many people who are just hanging around like extras in each season though. The guy who told Woman#5 that he liked women with cola-shaped bodies is a close second. I believe if we saw more of him we would've been disgusted too. I think Koreans are a bit more lenient towards the behavior of men. Maybe they don't see anything wrong with that, but if you noticed the reaction of the people in the studio, they don't seem to be liking it, so I hope this means Korea is hating it too.
I really feel bad for his partner, sometimes you are just that desperate that you overlook bad behavior. I noticed that her facial expression has changed when he pretended she was a dog, she seemed dumbfounded, then there was a cut and she was sitting in the next scene, maybe she told him she didn't like that, maybe not, but I would've made a bigger reaction, and would've definitely walked away. That was awful.

Yes. I thought about her knowing someone behind the scenes or that she has paid someone to be there too, because it seems like the PDs are pushing for that story too. I mean if she rejected the only guy who asked her out, and she wasn't interested in any other guy, it means she isn't fit to be looking for a partner, so why would a PD invite her again? She is already dragging the show down by her "sad story". Your prediction is probably gonna be true. I wouldn't roll out that she might be already seeing someone outside of the show.

The problem is that I think she is not weighed down by anything. Her past caused her to have a bad reputation and she is just trying to tell the world that she is not an ally of her rotten ex-boyfriend, and that she's just a poor woman who fell in love too hard for a bad boy, and wasn't able to see him for who he is. I googled her after learning her name, I didn't know about the story before, but it seems like she has continued to have a relationship with that guy even after he was exposed, so I think that is the reason why she needed an image cleaning.

I think it's the way everything is unraveling for her, she made sure to tell them just that. She sat down and told them that she usually falls in love so deep so she is very careful not to do that again. Coming to the show itself is a contradiction to the attitude she is trying to convey to us. I'm not buying it. Did you see the way she looked at the camera when she was in the bathroom with the blond woman? And when she rejected that guy by saying that she wasn't ready yet? She is so camera-aware that it feels like she is just doing a show for the camera. That's just how I see it, it could be that she is being honest, but I'm left with a bad taste in my mouth every time she does something. It all seems like a part of an act.

I think Woman#18's ideal type isn't someone who is funny, it's someone who she can laugh "at". The person she thinks is funny isn't funny at all, but she thinks he's funny because she is laughing "at" him. Meanwhile, she laughs plenty "with" the man she doesn't think of as her ideal type. He is actually the funny one who is making jokes. I don't think I've heard the other guy making jokes.

I think Man#11 is the worst option anyone can get, he is a bag of red flags and he isn't even trying to hide it. First, he smells the cushion that a random woman was sitting on, he treats the woman he picked poorly as soon as he finds out about her age, then he proceeds to tell her every bad thing about him to make sure that she is the type that is easy to control and that she will stay with him even if he treated her badly, he even tells her that if he could've he would've married all the women who picked him. I mean he literally pretended like she was a dog!! I hated that she didn't walk away when he did that, I feel bad for her as I think she has already fallen prey to his tactics.

Woman#19 seems to be milking the attention, I don't know why I don't believe that she is just being cautious, maybe because of the way she keeps looking at the camera with much intensity every time she does something that is "broadcast worthy". If I had to guess, I would say that she joined the show to clean her image. Someone with that kind of "traumatic" past wouldn't have come to a TV show to look for partners.

You'd think that his confidence went down or at least stayed the same because he was rejected in the first season, but maybe there were a lot of positive comments about him so his confidence shot up

Maybe to you it's nothing, but people are still watching.

Don't worry. The number in MDL isn't a live data from the production. It's just a number that is updated by users on this website. Running Man isn't ending soon, it's still quite popular. K-variety shows usually run until they start losing money on it. There is no set number on how many episodes there are. They have to set a number here but they don't know what it is, that is why it keeps getting updated here every now and then. It should never be taken as a clue. If they are going to end it, they will announce that abruptly, like they did the last time then changed their minds.

Do you mean the one from season 1?
As you can tell, he is fixated on looks. He doesn't give an F about compatibility. I thought he was genuine in season 1, but I guess I've read him wrong. He returned with one thing in mind "I'll get the best looking girl in my opinion, and I don't care if we are compatible or if she is actually interested", she was obviously not interested but he was like "I'm a big deal around here and I'm hurt that you didn't give me an envelope".

One of my favorite parts is the goat taking its time when telling them "I will tell you a fact that everyone knows except you... You guys are awfully ugly". LOL
I also liked the zombie cop.
I still think it brought down the show even though these moments were hilarious. I think it became more of a silly comedy I was entertained by rather than a comedy masterpiece that everyone should watch, and I really thought it had the potential to be that.

I think it would've been way better executed without the fantasy.
There were a lot of funny things that happened thanks to the fantasy element, but it kinda brought it down in my opinion.
Two nice but "awfully ugly" guys who are often mistakenly confused for criminals is a really funny concept. It would've been a classic comedy if it wasn't for the often silly fantasy.

I agree on all three. His awful personality is definitely showing. He even didn't shy away from saying "I have to" when she asked him in front of everyone. I think he thinks he's being discrete about how awful his real personality is, but the PDs caught him. They are even showing a bad look of him in the previews. He is such a creep.

Yes. I agree with you. I got that too, he handled this badly, especially since he said he knew she was playing smart when he was talking to the other guys. Sometimes, some people do that if they are insecure, they don't mean to punish you, they just think you are not interested, but those people either come talk to you to make sure you are not interested or never come at all, but he didn't seem to be doing that out of insecurity, he knew she was just being smart and thought it was his place to teach her a lesson. He even walked right past her to stand in line. He only came back when he saw she was getting weaker thinking she is now easier to control, but thankfully she ended up destroying him in the stage.
I honestly don't believe that none of them were interested to even talk to her. Is it an age thing? The way this is broadcasted, makes everything look weird. They are focusing only on a few people, and most of these people start obsessing over one person, then suddenly everything goes to sh*t. I don't like it at all. I don't think you can actually find a matching partner this way, half of the people get dropped without talking to anyone.
I also hated the guy who rudely refused the younger girl when he knew her age and also smelled the cushion after the woman has been sitting on it. That dude is a creep. Even in the preview, he looks so perverted watching the blond woman, I feel like this guy is going to gross us out even more. The way he ended things abruptly with the young girl was awful. Anyone could see that she was hurt by it. He could've voiced his concern and moved on, but he treated her like a child who is wasting his precious time.

I don't think marriage even crossed his mind.

Seeing that they both went for the single zone, I think they mutually agreed on something, and we will find about their conversation next week. Maybe it's an age thing.

I think woman#6 (the former kpop idol) just didn't want to do the show anymore. Maybe she figured it was better to try her luck in the real world. She is right about that. Although, I actually thought her conversation with that guy went really well, but they both missed up. She went the smart way and hurt his feelings, and he went the sulky way and didn't save the situation. I think one of them should've been more forward.
I'm worried about woman#5. I knew the long haired guy was actually interested in her personality, so I'm glad she grew her confidence a little, but I'm worried because I think it might've been a better choice if she just left like woman#6 did. This program isn't really for serious people, no matter how they are marketing it as. It is tough for people who are serious about getting married.

I don't think it's because of the cultural difference, she has some weird goals that she is too forward about. She has some kind of tunnel vision of aiming to be a trophy wife. I think even the guy with her thinks she is weird but he is too blinded by her sexiness. He keeps doing the slapped-with-a-comment facial expression whenever he's talking to her.

What's with the guy smelling the cushion? Maybe it's just me coming from a conservative culture, but I thought it was perverted. Don't you think it was very weird? I cringed, I didn't think it was funny. I would've barfed if a guy did that in front of me. Yuck

Yeah, and when she realized her daughter was determined, she stopped nagging her, even though it was hard for her to see her struggle to carry her 10days-husband's family.

Why are people hating on the mother? I don't think she's bad. She's not the "perfect" mother, but who is? She cares about her daughter's well-being, she doesn't physically abuse her, and she doesn't intentionally hurt her for selfish reasons. That's a mother who is decent enough, in my opinion.
Not sure why mothers are hated on for not being the perfect angels who worship their daughters regardless of the situation they are put in. She is just a typical mother who is trying to do well by her daughter but failing by forcing what she thinks is best, not what her daughter wants or needs.
Also, I honestly think that feigning interest in the factory is too much to ask of the person whose money got forcefully invested in it.
