On the September 11 broadcast of the SBS program "Anything Platform - The Secret Service" (hereinafter "The Secret Service"), the service members successfully attended to their my-star, Seo Inyoung.

After successfully wrapping up her underwear pictorial shoot that day, Seo Inyoung enjoyed pork belly with the service members. Seo Inyoung shared that she has been dating her current boyfriend for a year and six months, saying, "I really want to live well this time."

In response, Lee Seo-jin asked if they had already set a date. Seo Inyoung replied, "We did. We are thinking about having it around the end of the year." Upon hearing this, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu brought laughter by commenting, "You'll have to see when you get there. People tend to break up a lot while preparing the wedding goods. You never really know until you actually walk down the aisle."

Seo Inyoung then mentioned that she wanted to get dating advice from Lee Seo-jin, saying, "Women secretly like Lee Seo-jin. I heard that if you get caught in his web, you are done for and will shed tears of blood, and that you have to be careful not to get dumped. I used to wonder if that was really true about Lee Seo-jin. But that person drank alone with me and cried because of oppa. I asked her why she was like that, and she said it was because of oppa." This brought more laughter.

Seo Inyoung then asked Lee Seo-jin, "Is oppa just that good to women?" and Lee Seo-jin joked, "That's the problem."

Lee Seo-jin then honestly admitted, "But it's just three months. After three months, I want to enjoy my own life." Seo Inyoung asked, "Why does it fade so quickly?" and Lee Seo-jin countered, "Does love last that long?"

Hearing this, Seo Inyoung brought laughter by saying, "It should last long, but I'm not one to talk since I've been through it." Lee Seo-jin confidently replied, "I want it to last long, but since it doesn't, what can I do? It's not my fault. Love is the criminal."

Seo Inyoung shared that she is the type to immediately turn away if the other person says they dislike her, adding, "And then I go behind their backs and cry. But I have no regrets because I've tried everything I could."

Lee Seo-jin then recommended a long-term relationship to Seo Inyoung and offered practical advice. Seo Inyoung honestly shared, "It has been four years since my mother passed away, and back then I thought to myself that I wished I had a husband. At that time, my two daughters did everything. During my mother's sudden funeral due to a myocardial infarction, I thought about how nice it would have been if I had been married, and that led to my marriage."

In response, Lee Seo-jin advised that you shouldn't get married with that kind of mindset, and since this is her second time, she needs to be even more cautious. Seo Inyoung expressed concern about what to do if she has conflicts with her partner. Lee Seo-jin caused an outburst of laughter by saying, "You can overcome it through prayer together."

Seo Inyoung then revealed the reason she decided to film reform-themed content. She drew attention by saying, "I thought that acknowledging my shortcomings and going through a growth process for a better me would be a good idea."

She also admitted to her past materialism, sharing that her father once tried to send her to a hospital because of her excessive shopping, and stated that she no longer has material desires.

Seo Inyoung said, "This reform process is shaping me. It would be better to live without consuming." She added, "Before, I couldn't stop my material desires, but I sold everything. I had no choice but to stop my material desires because I couldn't make a living unless I sold those things. My life hit rock bottom to that extent. That's why I like my comfortable life now."

Commenting on his my-star, Lee Seo-jin said, "I don't think you even need to reform. You put in a lot of effort, you have thoughts, and you never cross the line."

Meanwhile, the end of the broadcast previewed Ji Changwook receiving the very first after-sales service from The Secret Service, raising anticipation for the next episode.
