Couples Emerge in First Impressions on 'Dolsinggyeol7'

The premiere of MBN's reality show 'Dolsinggyeol7' aired on July 20, 2025, featuring ten single men and women, all previously married, as they gathered at the 'Dolsing House' in Gold Coast, Australia, to find their potential remarriage partners. During the first impression voting, two couples notably mentioned each other.

As the participants arrived, Lee Dong-gun ( 이동건) expressed his interest in Kim Myung-eun (김명은) by playfully touching his ears. After exploring the Dolsing House, Lee took the lead in cooking and engaged in conversation with Kim, making it difficult for other contestants to join in. Lee Hye-young (이혜영) commented on the situation, expressing her frustration at not being able to interrupt their interaction.

Lee Da-eun (이다은) added that it was challenging to break into their budding connection, especially when it seemed to be going well. She emphasized the importance of seating arrangements during meals, noting that it often leads to subtle competition among the participants.

As the meal began, the singles settled into their chosen spots after some strategic maneuvering. Lee Dong-gun, who was attentive to the cooking, ended up at the last remaining seat. The long table was divided into two groups for conversation. Lee In-hyung (이인형) frequently glanced over to the other table, where he named Kim Myung-eun as his top first impression, calling her beautiful and likable.

Kim Do-hyung (김도형) also expressed his admiration for Kim Myung-eun, stating that she fit his ideal type, which includes a preference for fair-skinned individuals and a soft, low-pitched voice. Kim Myung-eun received three votes for first impression, while Park Sung-woo (박성우) chose Han Ji-woo (한지우) and Park Hee-jong (박희종) selected Han Ye-won (한예원).

The women also revealed their top first impressions. Lee Da-eun showed interest in Lee Dong-gun, sharing that she is attracted to his mature appearance. Jo Ah-reum (조아름) picked Kim Do-hyung, while Kim Ye-won (김예원) surprised everyone by choosing Park Sung-woo as her top pick.

Han Ji-woo mentioned actor Ahn Jae-hong (안재홍) as her ideal type but ultimately chose Park Sung-woo as her first impression, indicating a mutual connection. Lee Ji-hye (이지혜) expressed surprise at how quickly they seemed to connect, while Han Ji-woo noted Park Sung-woo's warm demeanor and considerate actions.

Kim Myung-eun, who garnered attention from three men, likened her ideal type to a golden retriever and a quokka, ultimately naming Lee In-hyung as her top first impression. She shared that she tried to ease the awkwardness upon entering the house, which made her appreciate Lee In-hyung's efforts to create a friendly atmosphere.

Kim Do-hyung remarked on Lee In-hyung's dog-like personality, suggesting that he might have feelings for Kim Myung-eun. Lee Dong-gun admitted to having lowered his expectations, while Lee In-hyung humorously noted that he had previously compared himself to a golden retriever in an interview, leaving others impressed.

The episode concluded with a mix of budding romances and unexpected connections, setting the stage for future developments in the series.
