My Remaining Romance asks who you’d love if time were running out

My Remaining Romance: A Romance of the 2030 Generation Who Experienced Life's Limits

Stories of young people who have experienced the finitude of life are coming to living rooms. SBS will premiere its new dating reality program 'My Remaining Romance' (directed by Lee Eun-sol) on Monday, August 3, at 10 PM.

The program features participants in their 20s and 30s who have received terminal diagnoses or have experienced being on the brink of life and death. Based on the question, "If I had little time left, who would I love?", it captures the process of finding true love within the 'today' they are given.

In particular, the show distinguishes itself from existing dating variety programs by introducing a matching system where male and female participants exchange 'time' with each other every night. PD Lee Eun-sol, who directed the previous work 'Possessed Love,' shared the production intent, stating, "I wanted to capture how passionately and sincerely young people, who know the finitude of life better than anyone, love."

Lee Se-young, Jung Yong-hwa, SEVENTEEN DK, and Choi Ye-na: An MC Lineup to Heighten Empathy

The studio MC lineup, who will join the participants in their narratives, has also been confirmed. Actress Lee Se-young, singer Jung Yong-hwa, SEVENTEEN DK, and Choi Ye-na will take the microphones together.

Lee Se-young, making her debut as a dating variety MC, showed deep immersion, even shedding tears while hearing the participants' stories during the first recording session. Jung Yong-hwa, known as a 'dating program mania,' will take on the role of reading the subtle currents between the participants.

SEVENTEEN DK is expected to show himself empathizing with the cast's emotions through his characteristic warm nature. Choi Ye-na, who has experience overcoming childhood cancer, plans to add fun to the program by forming a deep bond with the participants based on her own experiences.
