“It now looks like an interview” – Toke Makinwa cancels date to watch K-drama
Popular media personality Toke Makinwa has humorously revealed that she cancelled a date to indulge in her love for a Korean drama series.
The fashion icon, who recently expressed her openness to giving marriage another chance, shared the candid moment on X (formerly Twitter).
Toke disclosed that she chose to spend her evening watching the K-drama Captivating the King rather than attending the date.
In her post, she joked about the pressure that comes with dating in today’s world, likening it to an interview process.
She wrote:
“I cancelled a date tonight cos of K drama, 
. I hope he doesn’t see this o but dates these days be like interview, ma bimi ni jamb questions Jo let me watch ‘Captivating the King’ in peace.”
The post has since gone viral, sparking reactions from fans who applauded her relatable humour and love for Korean entertainment. While some teased her about prioritizing a drama over a date, others shared similar experiences of choosing personal comfort over the pressures of social outings.
