On the November 25 episode of SBS’s Dolsing Fourmen, content creator Malwang surprised viewers with a mix of emotional vulnerability and comic confession. While talking about his past relationship, he shared that he had fallen in love at first sight, only to be dumped a week later when his girlfriend left to study abroad. Despite the breakup signs, he attempted to win her back with persistent letters and visits to her parents — only to be told by her that his behavior was “disgusting.”
Malwang also revealed that he had studied overseas during his high school and college years, and even briefly worked as an English tutor in Seoul’s competitive Daechi-dong district. His family reportedly moved abroad thanks to his father winning first place in an English exam for public servants, earning them a government study grant. Despite this impressive background, Malwang confessed with a laugh that he’s now out of practice and struggles to even recall basic English words.
Why it matters
The episode sparked both laughter and sympathy from viewers as Malwang’s actions — from his persistent pursuit of a lost love to his self-deprecating humor about losing his English skills — offered a mix of relatability and entertainment. The cast jokingly questioned the truth behind his stories, with members like Lee Sang-min and Tak Jae-hoon teasing him playfully. As an added teaser, the episode closed with a preview of actress Hwang Shin-hye, Tak Jae-hoon’s first love, set to appear in the next episode, building anticipation among fans.
