I decided to appear because I thought I could step out of my repetitive routine and show a more candid version of myself.”
On ‘Noona Is My Woman’, Kim Jeong-won picked Pilates center head Choi Yu-jin as his top first impression. Kim said, “She has such a great smiling face and bright energy that your eyes are naturally drawn to her. Based on first impressions alone, she is the contestant most people would likely find appealing.” However, in episode 3, the person he chose as his first date partner was apparel entrepreneur Park Ji-hye. Kim said, “Ji-hye showed the biggest reversal. Because her first impression is strong, I honestly thought she would be cold and blunt, but in reality she was polite and very considerate, which was completely the opposite,” revealing a twist from her first impression.

It raises curiosity over whether the heart of Kim Jeong-won will lean toward Choi Yu-jin, his top first impression, his first date partner Park Ji-hye, or someone else altogether.
Up through episode 3, Kim Jeong-won was full of a playful and bright vibe, but he raised expectations by previewing another charm, saying, “In reality, I do have a serious and responsible side. As the show goes on, you will be able to see that little by little.” Kim, who came on ‘Noona Is My Woman’ to meet a partner who would become a truly loving couple, added, “Rather than any special techniques or strategies, I tried to have a lot of conversations with the other person. In the end, getting to know someone is about conversation, and I tried to express my feelings as honestly as possible,” explaining that he approached with sincerity.
Finally, Kim said, “There will truly be twist upon twist. I also acted as my emotions led, and the standards I had for my ideal type and for meeting the opposite sex completely changed,” forecasting a series of shocking developments to come. He also hinted at a crucial turning point: “After one incident, the entire flow changed. If earlier multiple feelings coexisted and my mind was about fifty-fifty, afterward I had certainty at one hundred to zero.” Kim continued, “By nature, once I make a choice, I tend not to leave any room. I would appreciate it if you watch until the end to see what choice I made and what changes occurred in the process,” making viewers look forward even more to ‘Noona Is My Woman’, which revealed the presence of an all-time twist.
