Intro
A text message arrived for me one day.
Would you like to participate in the EXchange program?
The content of the text was as follows. It said my ex-boyfriend, Chae Haram, was willing to participate in the program and needed my consent. The prize money for winning was 100 million won. It mentioned that a total of three pairs of couples would appear. I thought for a moment and sent a text back.
I'll do it.
About a month later, an address arrived from that same number. At the location indicated by the address stood a luxurious pension. The front of the pension was a beautiful beach, and the surroundings were quiet as if they were the only ones there.
'It's far from home, but is this private property..? There's no one around.'
As I stood in front of the house dragging my suitcase, my phone buzzed with a 'ding' as if they had been waiting, or somehow knew I was there.
Welcome, Guest! Thank you for the long journey! Please come to the back of the yard for the pre-interview!
I was startled for a moment, but I dragged my suitcase to the back of the yard as they instructed. There were no PDs, writers, or staff members to be seen at the back of the yard. Just several cameras and a TV.
As I was looking around, the TV suddenly turned on and a strange character popped out and spoke.
Welcome, Guest! Welcome to the EXchange program [ Next stop : LOVE ]! First, would you like to take a seat?
The character spoke while pointing to a small chair next to me. Without even grasping the situation, I followed the instructions of that strange character for now.
I'm Love, the host of [ Next stop : LOVE ]! I trust you're well-informed about our program, so let's begin the pre-interview!
Example 1
This is Chae Haram's pre-interview!
