• Han Ji Min and Lee Jun Hyuk’s Adorable “Pinkfong Umbrella” Moment Sparks Chemistry in “Love Scout” – Drama Ratings Soar to 10.5%

    The latest episode of “Love Scout” had fans swooning as Han Ji Min and Lee Jun Hyuk shared a sweet, romantic moment, bringing their on-screen chemistry to new heights! The episode’s heartwarming scenes led the drama to reach an impressive 10.5% nationwide ratings and a peak of 13.1%, solidifying its spot as the top-rated Friday-Saturday drama.

    In the third episode, Ji Yoon (played by Han Ji Min) and Eun Ho (played by Lee Jun Hyuk) showed a clear shift in their relationship from adversaries to a blossoming romance. The chemistry between them was undeniable, and viewers couldn’t get enough of their playful and tender moments. The episode also topped the 2049 target audience rating at 2.8% (Nielsen Korea), making it the most-watched show in its time slot!

    One of the standout scenes showed Ji Yoon narrowly avoiding a fall, thanks to Eun Ho’s quick support, before heading to her favorite street food stall. With determination, she boldly ordered the "Dizzying Flavor" level-5 spicy tteokbokki, setting the stage for an unforgettable eating challenge. Eun Ho, who couldn't handle spicy food, took a bite and hilariously struggled, making Ji Yoon laugh for the first time. This moment marked the start of her softening feelings toward him.

    As their relationship developed, Ji Yoon began noticing Eun Ho's sweet gestures, like buying pizza for overtime workers and creating a relaxing atmosphere with lavender scents. These little actions gradually melted her previous coldness toward him. Meanwhile, Eun Ho, who initially didn’t understand the headhunting world, started to appreciate the job more, especially after successfully helping Ji Yoon scout chef Jung Won for a top position at Ganeil Hotel.

    However, a rumor about an inappropriate relationship between Jung Won and his sous-chef, Hye In (played by Park Yoo Rim), caused a major hiccup in the process. The couple worked together to uncover the truth behind the gossip, revealing that Hye In had been supporting Jung Won during his wrist surgery, a secret she kept to protect his career.

    With this misunderstanding cleared up, Ji Yoon and Eun Ho successfully placed Jung Won as the head chef and helped Hye In find a new role suited to her talents as a food product developer. This moment highlighted Ji Yoon’s compassionate side, leaving Eun Ho in awe of her soft-heartedness.

    As the rain started to pour, the romantic moment everyone was waiting for arrived. Eun Ho pulled out a pink umbrella featuring the popular children’s character Pinkfong, leading to a cute, funny moment as they shared the umbrella. The scene ended with the two of them getting closer under the umbrella, leaving viewers with a heartwarming sense of romance and humor!

    With this episode’s massive success, fans can’t wait to see what’s next for Ji Yoon and Eun Ho as their relationship continues to bloom. "My Perfect Secretary" is clearly on the path to becoming a major hit.
