‘Baek Jong-won‘s Les Miserables’ Why did Baek Jong-won vent his anger?

On the December 28th broadcast of ENA’s ‘Baek Jong-won‘s Les Miserables’, the ‘Pork Mission’, in which another elimination occurs, begins. Attention is being paid to how the challengers who survived the ‘Making the Sea Table’ team mission and the losers’ resurrection mission will react to the new mission they face and what results they will produce. Above all, it is known that CEO Baek Jong-won became the most angry after the ‘Baek Jong-won‘s Les Miserables’ program began, adding to the curiosity.

On this day, CEO Baek Jong-won reveals the ‘Pork Mission’ to the surviving challengers. He then makes boiled pork by putting a large amount of pork in a giant cauldron and encouraging the challengers. Of course, as always, it is not simply about eating and enjoying it, but he carefully explains the meaning contained in it and what is most important. However, when CEO Baek Jong-won leaves, the attitudes of the challengers change, surprising everyone.



A scene filled with laughter and puns. The worst attitudes shown by the challengers do not stop there. There are more challengers who did the homework given by CEO Baek Jong-won meticulously and faithfully than those who did it half-heartedly. The appearance of the challengers who each appealed to their desperation and vowed to turn their lives around before the program started has disappeared without a trace, and only their lazy and relaxed appearance continues.

In the end, CEO Baek Jong-won tells the challengers, “Why aren’t you so desperate? Is this the time to laugh and enjoy? Your behavior is really disappointing.” He then makes a shocking declaration, “Why aren‘t you as desperate as me? I’m desperate for this program. If there‘s no one to choose here, I might not choose you.” Finally, CEO Baek Jong-won says, “Think carefully about what I said. If you don’t like it, stop embarrassing yourself and quit!”, he shouts fiercely.

On the other hand, the challenger who survived the loser‘s resurrection mission last week shows a 180-degree change. His attitude and actions make his teammates’ anger gauge rise. Not only that, but even the head chef who sincerely led him during the loser‘s resurrection mission can’t hide his disappointment. Who among the loser‘s resurrection survivors looks so disappointed? The scene of Baek Jong-won’s anger, shock, and confusion in the pork mission will be revealed on ENA‘s ‘Baek Jong-won’s Les Miserables’, which airs at 8:30 PM on Saturday, December 28.
