On the July 16 broadcast of the SBS program "Match To Marry: With Parents 2," the mothers of the male contestants introduced their sons.

During the episode, the mothers of the female contestants chose who they wanted to date their daughters after the men were introduced. All the attention went to Kwon Ye-chan and Kang Shin-woo, while Lee In-kwon, Kim Dong-young, and Moon Sung-mo received zero votes.

Lee In-kwon shared his feelings, saying, "I felt like I wouldn't want to go to work when this airs. I am actually fine, but the moment I saw my mother trying to force a smile, that was the hardest part."

Lee In-kwon's mother honestly added, "Mothers of our generation still seem to want to pair their daughters with professionals like doctors or lawyers. As a mother, I understand that feeling."

Kim Dong-young appeared calm, mentioning that he had somewhat expected the outcome. Moon Sung-mo also commented, "My academic background is not as strong as the other contestants, and my job is not as stable. I think the mothers were likely swayed after hearing about the others' professions."

As the contestants moved for their dates, the men who received zero votes gathered in one place. Moon Sung-mo appeared wearing a revealing sleeveless shirt, which drew complaints from Lee In-kwon.

Kim Dong-young then joked to Moon Sung-mo, "Brother, you should have gone to 'Single's Inferno', not here," bringing laughter to the group.
