During the episode aired on October 15 via ENA and SBS Plus, the production team of I Am SOLO surprised viewers with breaking news after all the main footage had ended. The screen flashed with the message: “A miraculous event has occurred in SOLO Nation.” Moments later, an ultrasound image appeared, confirming that one of the Season 28 couples is pregnant.
MC Defconn reacted with astonishment, saying, “This is an incredible event a baby has been conceived in the Divorced Singles edition! We’ve hinted at marriage before, but this is the first time we’ve heard a baby’s heartbeat. Now we need to find out who the happy couple is!”
Speculation among the hosts quickly followed. Defconn guessed that the father might be Kyung Soo, a former athlete, joking that “the heartbeat sounds full of energy.” Meanwhile, Song Hae Na exclaimed, “Who could it be? I’m dying to know!” and Lee Yi Kyung added in disbelief, “What kind of dating show plays a baby’s heartbeat sound?”
While the production team did not reveal the couple’s identity, online discussions erupted immediately. Viewers on community forums widely believe that the expecting parents are Sang Chul and Jung Sook, pointing out clues from both I Am SOLO and social media. One netizen claimed, “My friend knows Sang Chul personally — he’s dating Jung Sook.” Others reasoned that Jung Sook was the most likely candidate, noting that another contestant, Ok Soon, recently traveled abroad with her daughter — not a typical activity for someone in early pregnancy.
During the episode, Jung Sook openly expressed frustration with Young Soo’s indecisive behavior and shifted her attention toward Sang Chul. In one playful exchange, she teased him, saying, “Come into my fence. Let’s see how it goes,” signaling her growing affection.
Meanwhile, other couples also saw developments in their relationships. Hyun Sook decided to pursue Young Sik, confessing, “I came here to find someone to remarry, and when I thought about it seriously, that person was you.” Another pair, Gwang Soo and Jung Hee, confirmed their feelings by holding hands and sharing a heartwarming moment.
The show continues to dominate ratings, with the October 8 episode reaching an average viewership of 4.3% in the Seoul metropolitan area, according to Nielsen Korea. I Am SOLO airs every Wednesday at 10:30 p.m.
