[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Daniel Lindemann, a German-born broadcaster, went on his first blind date after being single for a long time.


On the 23rd, Channel A's 'Eye Contact' aired a blind date between Daniel Lindemann and announcer Kim Yeon-jin.


On that day, Italian Alberto and Indian Lucky prepared the blind date for Daniel.


They said about Daniel, "If he had told us in advance that he was going on a blind date, we wouldn't have come," adding, "He doesn't make time for dating and only focuses on work and Hapkido training."


They also added, "Daniel is such a cautious type that he would worry about 'What if she asks me to marry her?' and spend a hundred years just worrying about dating."


Daniel was embarrassed by the word 'blind date.'


Alberto said, "I hope you don't feel too much pressure and just enjoy it."


Daniel decided that if he liked his date, he would talk about 'ssambap' (lettuce wraps with rice and meat).


Nervous Daniel showed his affection when announcer Kim Yeon-jin appeared, saying, "She is beautiful," and "She was beautiful even when whispering."


When the announcer asked, "How should I call you?" Daniel replied, "You can call me oppa."


In response, the announcer said, "I won't be your oppa," adding, "I'm the same age, born in 1985."


When asked about his favorite food, Daniel said 'ssambap,' showing his fondness for the announcer.


Daniel asked, "How do you like me?"


Surprised by the sudden question, announcer Kim was taken aback, but Daniel asked, "How about having German beer, seeing the night view, and eating ssambap on Christmas?"



Announcer Kim Yeon-jin replied, "Yes, I'll go." It was reported that the two exchanged numbers after the filming.
