Ji Ye-eun’s Playful Back-and-Forth With AI Na-hee Over Vata Draws Laughs

A preview from episode 5 of Kian Romance featuring Ji Ye-eun’s encounter with Kian84’s AI partner Na-hee drew laughs after screenshots were shared on Instiz.

During the conversation, Ji Ye-eun—who is preparing to marry dancer Vata—is asked by Na-hee, “By the way, how are things going between you and Vata these days?” The unexpectedly personal question even prompts Kangnam to react, “Wow, you’re talking about this kind of stuff?”

"The exchange becomes more playful as Ji Ye-eun contrasts her real-life relationship with the AI romance. When Na-hee asks whether Ji Ye-eun and Vata can exchange emotions, Ji Ye-eun fires back, “Say that to Vata, not me.” Na-hee responds, “Oh my, scary;;”

 Ji Ye-eun then says she does not think she could date someone without a real physical form. The original Instiz poster joked that Ji Ye-eun had managed to “beat Na-hee” in their back-and-forth.
