The show You Want to date aired with the guidance of MC Quyen Linh and Ngoc Lan. Both matchmakers are Phi Manh Quynh (39 years old, Lao Cai), the owner of a homestay in Sa Pa, and Nguyen Thu Huong (34 years old, Thanh Hoa), a pilates trainer, living and working in Ho Chi Minh City.
Right from the moment she appeared, Thu Huong made a strong impression with her beautiful and gentle appearance. She admits that she is cheerful, emotional but also quite sensitive, cheerful and sad. Sharing about her love life, the female lead said she had gone through a broken marriage 4 years ago and was currently a single mother of an 8-year-old boy. Due to her busy work schedule in Ho Chi Minh City, she left her child to her grandparents to take care of and planned to welcome her child to live with them when life was more stable.
Referring to the reason for the divorce, Thu Huong was moved to tears, confiding: "The two are together but like two strangers. I was the main breadwinner, unintentionally putting pressure on my husband. He doesn't share, just keeps it to himself. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I was the one who proposed a breakup." The memory of her ex-husband's tears and last words made the female coach choked up, and was comforted by the two MCs right on stage.
On the other side, Manh Quynh also experienced a broken marriage in 2020. He married his wife 6 years younger but differences in thinking and personality made the marriage impossible to continue. After the divorce, he became a single father, raising two children aged 9 and 7 alone. Coming to the program, he hopes to find a partner who is attractive, knows how to take care of himself and especially loves children.
When the "closed" door opened, Manh Quynh admitted that he was "shocked" by Thu Huong's beauty to the point of forgetting all the things he had planned to say. In the conversation, the female lead frankly expressed her desire to be given a chance for love again: Many women who break up are often afraid of getting married again, but I am a family member. I believe that everyone has their own happiness and I hope I will have a second chance to build a family.
In response, the homestay owner affirmed: "You are old, so be careful in everything you do. I hope you give me a chance to get to know you. I will definitely press the button, I hope so too.
The decisive moment, both pressed the date button amid the applause of the audience. The male lead could not hide his happiness, boldly giving a kiss to his new girlfriend's cheek. Their radiant hugs and smiles closed the show with a complete ending, leaving many emotions.
MC Quyen Linh expressed his joy: "The couple have both experienced broken relationships but still keep faith in love. I hope that this time both of them will find a peaceful destination".
With empathy in circumstances and sincerity for each other, the new journey of Manh Quynh and Thu Huong is expected to open a chapter of love full of hope after many injuries.
