Episode 9 of ‘Motel Cali’, which will air today (the 7th), will depict Kang-hee (played by Lee Se-young) and Yeon-soo (played by Na In-woo) on their ‘1st day as official lovers’ after putting an end to their ‘fake boyfriend and girlfriend’ life. Here, ‘Motel Cali’ production has released a sneak peek of Kang-hee and Yeon-soo’s sweet affectionate behavior, making hearts flutter. In the released still cuts, Kang-hee and Yeon-soo are seen showering each other with kisses on the cheek, forgetting the cold weather. The sight of the two of them showing off their affection without reservation, as if exploding the emotions that had been suppressed for 23 years, brings extreme excitement. Also, Yeon-soo‘s smiling expression as if she has won the world after Kang-hee kisses her on the cheek causes excessive immersion into the ‘Cheonji Couple’.

On the other hand, the sight of Kang-hee and Yeon-soo completely immersed in their own world makes one wonder whether the two of them have announced their relationship to the people of Hana-eup. The excessive interference and groundless rumors of the people of Hana-eup have also played a part in breaking up the Kang-hee and Yeon-soo couple. As Kang-hee and Yeon-soo are shown being boldly skinshipping outdoors without hesitation, expectations are rising as to whether the two of them will be able to be reborn as a perfect official couple amidst the intense meddling of Hana-eup. Accordingly, attention is focused on the 9th episode of ‘Motel California’, which will contain the full-fledged love story of Kang-hee and Yeon-soo.

The 9th episode of MBC’s well-made first love romance drama ’Motel California’, which is producing ‘Motel Passion’ in the New Year‘s home theater, will air today (the 7th) at 9:50 p.m.
