Actress Hwang Jung-eum will have a surprise reunion with actor Choi Daniel, with whom she worked together on ‘High Kick Through the Roof’ (hereafter referred to as ‘High Kick’).

On the 13th episode of the SBS Plus·E Channel jointly produced entertainment show ‘Because I‘m Solo’, which will air on Tuesday, April 1st at 8:40 PM, Hwang Jung-eum and ‘Solo Sister’ Park Eun-hye, and special guest Jeon Hye-bin will appear as MCs Shin Dong-yup, Hwang Jung-eum and ‘Solo Sister’ Park Eun-hye, and the scene where Hwang Jung-eum and Choi Daniel meet for the first time since ‘High Kick’ will be revealed.

On this day, Hwang Jung-eum shows off her warm ‘mother-son chemistry’ while playing mart with her second son Kang-sik. Regarding this, she said, “Until now, I’ve only given my older brother (the eldest son Wang-sik) toys, but this is the first time I‘ve bought Kang-sik a ‘play mart’. I was so surprised to see him so happy. Kang-sik says, “I didn’t know that you liked ‘Playing Mart’ that much,” and is delighted.

After a while, Hwang Jung-eum takes Kang-sik to a cafe near her house. With his mother’s cheering, Kang-sik finally tries to order his first drink, and Hwang Jung-eum watches him from afar, feeling anxious. Attention is focused on whether Kang-sik will be able to properly complete the first errand that his ‘mom’ Hwang Jung-eum has asked him to do.

Meanwhile, Hwang Jung-eum has a ‘High Kick reunion’ with Choi Daniel, saying that he is her “only male friend with whom I can discuss difficult things.” Hwang Jung-eum, who is happily immersed in memories of those days after a long time, suddenly asks, “You liked me back then, right?” Amidst growing curiosity about what kind of answer Choi Daniel will give, Choi Daniel said, “Hwang Jung-eum was truly the best acting partner. She looked so pretty and lovely, filming without showing it even on difficult days.”

The two then attempted a surprise video call with Yoon Si-yoon, their co-star in “High Kick Through the Roof,” and reminisced about those days while showing their still-strong friendship.

In the warm atmosphere, the two did not forget to talk about past “rumors.” Choi Daniel was the first to start by saying, “At the time, (Hwang Jung-eum) was publicly dating, and there were rumors that I ”cheated on her.“ Hwang Jung-eum also feels wronged and recalls the events of that time, and attention is focused on the truth of the ‘love triangle rumor’ that is only now being revealed.

Meanwhile, Hwang Jung-eum opens up about her divorce and her two children, and then candidly talks about her parents’ divorce. She confesses, ”I grew up at my grandmother‘s house since I was in the third grade of elementary school. My parents each loved me in their own way, so I didn’t feel lacking. That‘s why I wasn’t afraid of divorce.“

Hwang Jung-eum and Choi Daniel, who meet again after a long time and open up to each other, the story of their friendship and Hwang Jung-eum‘s ‘second son’ Kang Sik’s challenge to ‘run errands for his mom’, will be revealed in episode 13 of ‘Because I‘m Single’.
