These days, various dating programs are appearing in each broadcasting station and are gaining popularity. Representatively, the original TVing "Transit Love" series is gaining popularity. It is a love reality program in which couples who have separated for various reasons live together in one house to find new relationships or to connect again. So, why are people so excited about these dating programs?

First of all, the show's casts are usually made up of ordinary people, not celebrities, so viewers can empathize and immerse themselves more. In the existing dating programs such as "We Got Married", the audience's immersion was limited because the casts were made up of celebrities.

These days, however, dating programs provide viewers with a lot of empathy and immersion through realistic scenes thata ordinary people can only relate to if they have been in a relationship, and with honest interviewers of casts in the middle of the program.

Second, the unique elements used only in dating programs cause viewers to become fully immersed in the cast's situation - in other words, overindulgence. Unlike regular dramas, especially in the dating program "Transit Love", separated couples live with each other's X hidden. This allows viewers to infer who the couple was, and each episode the truth is revealed along with their narratives to make viewers more immersed.

For these reasons, dating programs are so popular that they do not fall into a topic of conversation. These days when it is difficult to make natural relationships compared to the past, these programs have become as popular as the changing environment. Also, people can vicariously satisfy themselves by watching them.
