A Valentine's Day Dating Game: Chapter 3 - Dating Game Part 2

Hee Chul: I guess its now time for the fourth question. Are you ready Shin Hye?

Shin Hye: Ne, Oppa.

Hee Chul: Chincha?

Shin Hye: Ne.

Hee Chul looked at Shin Hye and smirk.

Shin Hye: Wae-yo?

Hee Chul: I was just thinking. How about we stop this now and I’ll just be your date?

Shin Hye: Mwo?

Hee Chul: What do you think? (He asked the audience)

Audience: Ne, Oppa!

Hee Chul: See, they all agree.

One of the mystery guys react.

MG2 (Hong Ki): Andwe! I should be her date!

Hee Chul: Chincha?! I don’t think so. I should be her date.

MG2 (Hong Ki): Aniyo. Shin Hye will choose me.

Hee Chul: You seem so confident that Shin Hye will choose you.

MG2 (Hong Ki): Ne.

Shin Hye: He reminds me of Jeremy in Minami Shineyo.

Hee Chul: Wae-yo?

Shin Hye: Hong Ki’s character there is really childish but cute.  I would want to have a brother or friend like him.

Hee Chul: How about a boyfriend like him?

Shin Hye: I will feel burden if he’ll be my boyfriend. He’s too immature. Don’t get me wrong, I’m referring to Jeremy and not Hong Ki.

Hee Chul: We know that Shin Hye. What if Hong Ki invite you on a date today what will your reaction be?

Shin Hye laugh.

Hee Chul: Why are you laughing?

Shin Hye: I think that won’t happen. Or if it ever happen, we won’t consider it as a date. Like I always say, even if people see me with Hong Ki they will not think that we are on a date. He is the least person that I will have an issue when it comes to things like that.

Hee Chul: Omo, poor Hong Ki.

Shin Hye: Oppa, it’s not like that. I’m just really comfortable with him so I think that won’t happen.

Hong Ki’s POV: Shin Hye just really sees me as a friend.

Hee Chul: Araso. Shin Hye. How about Geun Suk and Yong Hwa?

Shin Hye: With Geun Suk Oppa and Yong Hwa, even if people don’t see me with them there are still issues.

Hee Chul: Is that the reason why you are not that vocal about your friendship with them?

Shin Hye: Aniyo. I treat them all equally. They are all my friends. Maybe I’m just really more comfortable with Hong Ki.

Geun Suk’s POV: Why are you more comfortable with him?

Yong Hwa’s POV: Has this something to do with the antis again?

Hee Chul: Hong Ki must be so happy now after hearing that. Now, let’s go to the fourth question. This is for real now. Mysterious Guys are you ready?

MG1/MG2/MG3: Ne.

Hee Chul: Araso. For our forth question, if you will give Shin Hye a flower specifically a rose. What color and how many will you give her?

MG2 (Hong Ki): I will give Shin Hye 7 pink roses. Pink roses are said to be “flower of sweet thoughts and gentle emotions”. It also indicates an affection that may turn into deeper love. Innocent love that has not yet blossomed into passion and a deep affection that has not yet reached its pinnacle. Like what I've said from the start of the show, I want to be her friend first. And will just see wherever that will lead us after. I’ll give her seven because it means high degree of infatuation.

Pink Rose Meaning

Hee Chul: Wait… you said high degree of infatuation? I knew it! You’re just pretending to be a friend so she’ll be comfortable with you. But the truth is you really like her. Am I right?

MG2 (Hong Ki): Aniyo. It’s not like that. Like what I’ve said will see what happen next.

Hong Ki’s POV: Yah! Why did I say that? What will Shin Hye think later if she saw me? I hope she won’t think about what Hee Chul Hyung said. But wait… Am I really not feeling anything more than friendship towards her? Aissh… Hong Ki… of course you’re infatuated with Shin Hye. Who wouldn’t, she’s beautiful and kind. But it's only up to that. I treasure our friendship more than anything else.

Hee Chul: Shin Hye, do you think Mystery Guy No.2 is telling the truth?

Shin Hye: I’m not sure… maybe. He said it’s only an infatuation. And infatuation is only an admiration right?

Hee Chul: Oh you’re right. Who wouldn’t admire you? (He looked at the audience) Who wouldn’t admire her right? (He put his hand on his face) Omo! I think I’m blushing. Shin Hye-ah, I’m one of your admirer.

Shin Hye: Hee Chul Oppa. (She smile and blushed)

Hee Chul: It’s really fun teasing you Shin Hye.

Shin Hye: I think I won’t call you Oppa anymore. You keep teasing me.

Hee Chul: Araso, I’ll stop now. Before Shin Hye get formal with me, let’s go to Mystery Guy No.3 now.

MG3 (Yong Hwa): Shin Hye deserves 9 white roses. White roses are said to be "the flower of light". It also means everlasting love… a love that is sustained more by loyalty, reverence and humility. So, it’s just right that I give her 9 white roses. This is to reassure my loyalty to her and show that I will be someone who will stay with her as long as she live… either as a lover or a friend.

White Rose Meaning

Hee Chul: That’s something. Are you also implying something here Mystery Guy No. 3?

MG3 (Yong Hwa): Mwo?

Hee Chul: Like Mystery Guy No.2, you said you just want to be Shin Hye’s date tonight. But with your white rose answer, you just said that you want to be with her as long as she live… that doesn’t sound a one time date only, you know.

MG2 (Yong Hwa): Aniyo. It’s not like that.

Hee Chul: And what do you actually mean?

Yong Hwa’s POV: Omo! Why did they choose Hee Chul Hyung to be the host? He is really good with this. What will I tell him? And what will I tell Shin Hye later about this. I really mean what I said. I'll be here for her no matter what. Aigoo, Yong Hwa think of anything.

Yong Hwa: It means… I’ll do that to her if she choose me tonight. We wouldn’t know what will happen after this. We may end up as friends or maybe more than that.

Hee Chul: Chincha?

Yong Hwa: Ne.

Hee Chul: What do you think Shin Hye?

Shin Hye: Well… in Minami Shineyo there’s one scene that I was holding white roses. I didn’t know that white roses mean like that. What he said reminds me of Shin Woo’s unconditional love for Minam. Like what he said, he will be there for her no matter what.

Hee Chul: Shin Hye, are you reminiscing Minami Shineyo?

Shin Hye: Ne, suddenly I just remember my times with my ANJell. The answer of Mystery Guy No.2 reminds me of Jeremy and now No.3 of Shin Woo Hyung.

Hee Chul: So, now the only missing is Tae Kyung. Well, I can be Tae Kyung. Since, Minam choose him. Then I’ll be Tae Kyung. Actually, I think I could have act better than Geun Suk if they choose me. (He look at the audience) What do you think? I’m better than Geun Suk right?

Audience: Ne!

Mystery Guy No. 1 then laugh.

Hee Chul: Why are you laughing Mystery Guy No.1? Don’t you agree with the audience?

MG1 (Geun Suk): Aniyo. I think you could be Tae Kyung only if…

Hee Chul: If what?

MG1 (Geun Suk): You can do the Tae Kyung pout.

Hee Chul: Tae Kyung pout? I can do better than that? Just wait and see. (He did his own version of Tae Kyung pout) So, did I pass Shin Hye?

Shin Hye: Hmmm…

Hee Chul: Aissh… I know you’re bias with your ANJell friends. I’ll just ask the audience. (He asks the audience) Who’s better… Geun Suk or me?

Audience: You Oppa!

Hee Chul: Did you here that Mystery Guy No.1? I told you I’m better than him.

MG1 (Geun Suk): Ne.

Hee Chul: Now, let’s hear your answer to our forth question.

MG1 (Geun Suk): I’ll give Shin Hye 13 red roses. As we all know, red roses are “the flower of beauty and passion”. Red roses also symbolize courage and power. It is also a way to express respect and appreciation, as well as the celebration of the creative spirit of love. As her prince, I'll be like that for her.

Red Rose Meaning

Hee Chul: And why are you giving her 13? As far as I know 13 roses means you are a secret admirer?

Geun Suk’s POV: Hee Chul strikes again. Why did I forget that? He will think that I choose 13 because I am secretly in love with Shin Hye. And what will she think about that? Aissh… Think Geun Suk… think!

Hee Chul: So, am I right?

Geun Suk: Aniyo. I choose 13 just to be different. I know they always give three or dozen of red roses. I didn’t know that 13 means that you are a secret admirer.

Hee Chul: Chincha?

Geun Suk: Ne.

Hee Chul: Well, as you said. Shin Hye, what do you think of Mystery Guy No.1’s answer? Don’t you think he secretly like you?

Shin Hye: Aniyo. At the start of the show he already said that he wants to be my prince so I don’t think so. But he reminds me of Tae Kyung, like him he also hide his feelings for me.

Hee Chul: Hmm… If he said like that, then be it. So have you chosen which one you prefer?

Shin Hye: I think I will keep that to myself first Oppa. I’ll decide after the last question.

Hee Chul: Shin Hye-ah, you’re keeping us in suspense. I think you’re having a hard time to choose right?

Shin Hye: Ne.

Hee Chul: I can help you with that?

Shin Hye: How?

Hee Chul: Don’t ask the last question and just go on a date with me.

Shin Hye: Mwo? You’re kidding again.

Hee Chul: Aissh… you really know me now.

Shin Hye: Ne. (She smile)

Hee Chul: Ara. Let’s just go to the last question. Are you ready Shin Hye?

Shin Hye: Ne.

Hee Chul: Ask your question now Shin Hye.

Shin Hye: Here’s my question. If I will choose you tonight… where would you bring me on our first date and why?
