“Let’s date in secret” Jerome

[Sports Chosun Reporter Lee Yu-na] “Don’t make the final choice, but when it’s over, let’s meet secretly outside and date. Meet in LA.”

In the 8th episode of MBN’s entertainment show ‘Idol Singles 4’, which aired on the 10th, a secret dojo date was held on the 5th day of the single house training camp.

The secret stamp date is a signature date unique to ‘Dollsingles 4′ where you can go out on a date unconditionally by putting a stamp on the person you want. Depending on the voting results, it could be a one-on-one date, or it could be a group date as the connection continues.

There are a total of 3 dating groups that Choi Jo-oh was matched with. Harim and Ricky, who were almost confirmed as an official couple, followed by Jimmy and Heejin, who confirmed that they were straight for each other, successfully had a one-on-one date just for the two of them. On the other hand, a total of 6 members were involved in car 2, and an all-time group date was held throughout the entire season. Jerome, Benita, Tom, Sora, Jisoo, and Dewey all rode in one car, creating a unique scene.

Each person’s feelings were also revealed. Jerome and Tom chose Benita, Sora and Jisoo chose Tom, and Dewey chose Jisoo, making the six of them go on a date together. Benita’s decision is the only one that has not been made public.

A time just for the two of us, decided with rock, paper, scissors following the survival game. Jerome and Benita, who did not make a good team in the Survivor game, felt their fate while spending time alone at the beach.

Jerome asked Benita about her change of heart after learning about his celebrity past and the existence of his ex-wife Bae Yoon-jung. Benita expressed her concerns, saying that she had thought about many different variables when she came here, but she had never thought about the variable of being a ‘former celebrity’. For example, he confessed that the aftermath would be very different if he chose Tom and if he chose Jerome.

Jerome came up with an expedient real-life couple strategy, saying, “Let’s not make a choice between the two of us during the final selection. Let’s go out after the program and meet in LA a few times before dating.”At the same time, he expressed his sincere feelings, saying, “I’ve had a lot of trouble ending because of this part. I don’t want to make it difficult for the other person because of that. If you go out and meet secretly, you won’t get any news and there won’t be any problems.”Benita responded, saying, “That’s a really good idea.”

The results of Benita’s final selection have been revealed. Benita’s choice was Jerome.

Yoo Se-yoon, who was watching this, laughed and said, “What if we don’t make a final choice and Benita ends up living with Tom? Is she living with Tom and actually dating Jerome?”At the same time, he said, “Even if that method is used, ‘Doll Singles’ will support the two people.”

In addition, Yoo Se-yoon and Eun Ji-won looked at Benita, who sensitively accepted Jerome’s celebrity career and the existence of his ex-wife, saying, “I don’t recognize Jerome in Korea now,”and “When I say Jerome, ‘What is that guy?’ “I will,” he said, taking Jerome’s side. Eun Ji-won guessed Benita’s other concerns, saying, “X (Bae Yoon-jung) is more famous. That’s why I can be worried now.”

In response, Yoo Se-yoon drew attention by conveying Bae Yoon-jung’s reaction, saying, “I met Bae Yoon-jung for a broadcast not long ago and said hello. She said she was very supportive of Jerome.”

Meanwhile, Jerome is a former member of the group He married choreographer Bae Yoon-jung in 2014, but divorced two years later. Bae Yoon-jung later married her current husband, who is 10 years younger than her, in 2019 and has a son.
