From a young age, many of us are taught that love follows a certain timeline — meet someone, get married, start a family. But life doesn't always unfold according to plan.

So, is there really a "right" age to find love? And are we putting too much pressure on ourselves to hit relationship milestones by a certain deadline?

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong explores the idea of love later in life and whether it's ever truly too late to find a partner with Daryl Dee Chan, Principal Consultant & Founder, Bless Inc. Asia and Domennic Chan, Pullman Ambassador at Pullman Hill Street.

They share their unconventional journey to marriage after meeting on a dating app and tying the knot when Dee was 50.
