On that day, Eli met Alexander, his former U-KISS member and confessed:
Alexander was stunned and asked if he had already came up with a final decision and Eli added:
"I'll go to the U.S. first and take care of my things before I come back and focus on my life in Korea."
However, he revealed that he decided not to accept Ji Yeon Soo's offer of living together.

In particular, he carefully explained his reason and stated:
"When I got married, I tried to match with her (personality) but now we are divorced. Now we are just Minsoo's mom and Minsoo's dad, so I'm putting importance on myself first."
He shocked the MCs by expressing his changed mindset and firmly said:
"I think it's right not to live together, I think we should not do that, and that's the plan at the moment."

In the same broadcast, the former K-pop idol elaborated on why he felt like they should not live together again when Alex asked:
"You're currently living together now, but are you still fighting?"
Eli denied that they are still having fights, but he responded that they are walking on eggshells.
"We don't fight, but we can feel that we are looking at each other. There's nothing we can do, we are being careful with each other when we live together."

The male celebrity went on by citing an incident from their daily lives before as a couple where he felt uncomfortable living with her.
He narrated:
"It was a problem with the air conditioner. I used to just try to keep up with Ji Yeon Soo, but that's not the case anymore. To explain it simply, there was this air conditioner problem.
"It's summer and it's hot, but Yeonsoo is sensitive to cold and I am with heat. I want to turn on the air conditioner, but if I turn it on my own, I think there will be a fight, and I know that if I ask you to turn it on, Yeon Soo will refuse.
If I get sensitive because of the heat, there will be another fight. Then I just endure the heat."
