Ahead of the broadcast, the production team revealed the must-see points to watch on the 12th.
● Edward Lee’s first reality show “I‘m a Countryman”
According to the production team, ‘Edward Lee’s Country Cook’ is Edward Lee‘s first reality program. The hidden true side of Edward Lee, who captivated the world with his creative and unique dishes on various cooking competition programs such as ‘Black and White Chef’, will be revealed. ‘Geun-jin Eom’ Edward Lee, a ‘genius in his profession’ with 30 years of cooking experience, will be surprised and amazed by the unfamiliar Korean seasonal ingredients and local food, and will show a ‘real reaction’ moment as a down-to-earth ‘country man’ wearing a floral ‘village ’look’ instead of a white chef’s uniform. You can also catch a glimpse of the affectionate ‘Dad Lee Gyun’ and ‘Husband Lee Gyun’, not just the chef.

The chemistry between real friends
The Country‘s
The unique combination of actors Byun Yo-han, Ko Ah-sung, and Cynthia, who have come together for Edward Lee, is also a must-watch. The three who were Edward Lee’s
true fans will shine as they transform into balanced
best friends through a special 15-day culinary journey, and the sweet chemistry between Byun Yo-han, who is both a mental supporter and a Korean language guide, Ko Ah-sung, the trustworthy cooking assistant, and Cynthia, the best eating partner, will bring harmless laughter. The actual production team revealed that “Except when we were sleeping, the audio and laughter were non-stop”, so even more attention is being paid to the special ‘best chemistry’ that the Countryz (members) will show off.
● Edward Lee‘s special reinterpretation of Korean food
Edward Lee’s country cuisine created in the countryside is also expected to stimulate curiosity. Based on seasonal ingredients harvested in Gangwon-do, Andong, and Yeosu and inspiration from the skills of Korean food artisans, Edward Lee‘s creative feast of flavors will unfold. The scene where the Countryz have a ‘mental breakdown’ at unpredictable recipes such as combining peanut butter in makgeolli and egg yolk in homemade soybean paste is also expected to be a point of laughter. Attention is being paid to how the elderly in the countryside will react to Edward Lee’s ‘Korea Limited Edition Cuisine’.
● A harmless ‘Cinematic Food Trip’ doubled by cinematic directing
‘Edward Lee‘s Country Cook’ is a ‘Cinematic Food Trip’ genre that has been created by the production team that pioneered authentic food genre entertainment such as ‘MasterChef Korea’, ‘Korean Food Battle’, and has newly utilized their directing strengths and know-how. It is expected to elicit admiration with its visual beauty that makes you feel as if you are watching a scene from a movie. It is expected to stimulate viewers’ salivary glands by deliciously bringing out the colorful ingredients and colors, textures, and warmth of dishes, while also providing a unique healing experience as if traveling by capturing the Korean winter sentiment and cozy country life from all over the country.
The first episode of ‘Edward Lee’s Country Cook‘ will air at 8:40 PM on the 14th.
