A surprise on-air moment involving George, a contestant who received zero votes on MBC every1 and E Channel’s dating show “Dolsing N Mosol,” drew sharp reactions on online communities.
On the 6th, posts about “George, who got zero votes in the couple selection,” spread across multiple online forums.
In the episode, as other participants discussed their date plans, George stood up saying he was going to the restroom, then suddenly stopped. Turning to the group, he asked, “Why didn’t you choose me?” When Camellia responded, “If you want to ask someone, ask just one person,” he said he wanted to ask everyone.
As the cast appeared taken aback, George brushed it off, saying, “Ah, never mind, whatever,” then abruptly called for the producer in charge and held a one-on-one meeting.
He told the producer, “There’s a part of me that feels a bit upset. To be honest, I’m already thinking, ‘Should I use an exit strategy and go home?’” He added, “My family is a professional family, and I come from a family where my hands are precious, so I think, ‘Why didn’t the woman I want show up?’ That makes me not want to do this.”
He continued, “Of course, I’m arrogant and I’m not 100% objective about myself, but even though I tell myself not to be that way, I’m human and those feelings come up,” adding, “I’m saying my morale dropped a bit. I know you did your best for me.”
After the scene aired, commenters called him “a type of contestant never seen before on a dating program.”
Some wrote, “I’m going to believe he’s an actor planted by the production team,” and, “It feels like they’re running a social experiment by forcing in someone who’s lacking, and I can’t watch because it’s unpleasant.” Another said the show should be used “as an educational program to teach people with low social intelligence or poor awareness that others don’t like this kind of behavior.”
Others added, “He doesn’t even realize he’s the problem, so there’s nothing to do,” “It doesn’t seem like he has even 10% self-awareness,” and, “Being inexperienced in dating is the least of it — he seems to have various personality issues.”
