On the latest episode of Channel A's entertainment program 'Lover's Course 2,' celebrity Cheon Myung-hoon voiced his suspicions about the relationship between fellow cast members Lee Jung-jin and Sowol.

Cheon Myung-hoon, who had previously pursued Sowol on the show, appeared to be seeking comfort by stating he was content with his life in Yangpyeong. However, the show's MCs humorously pointed out that he hadn't been rejected but rather that Sowol hadn't reciprocated his advances after multiple attempts.

I'm okay, I like Yangpyeong.
