Choo Sung Hoon really showed off his ‘Mr.’s charm in ‘It‘s Lucky to Get a Good Rest’.

Episode 40 of the MBC entertainment program ‘It’s Lucky to Get a Good Rest’ (directed by Kim Myung Jin, Shin Hyun Bin, Lee Jun Beom, Kim Ki Ho / written by Kwon Jung Hee / hereinafter referred to as ‘It‘s Lucky to Get a Good Rest’), which aired on the 17th, depicted ‘CEO Ahn Jung Hwan, his best friend Choo Sung Hoon of the same age, and Kim Nam Il, Kim Dong Jun, and Lee Gwan Hee running a restaurant on an uninhabited island. According to Nielsen Korea, a viewership rating research company, on the 18th, the broadcast recorded a viewership rating of 5.3% (nationwide), maintaining its position as the number 1 Monday entertainment program across all channels. The 2049 viewership ratings, a key indicator that measures channel competitiveness and topicality, also ranked first.

That day, Ahn Jung-hwan and Choo Sung-hoon showed their best chemistry by bickering as soon as they met. When Ahn Jung-hwan asked Choo Sung-hoon to do something, he would ask, “What do you do?” and Ahn Jung-hwan would yell at Choo Sung-hoon, saying, “If someone saw you, they’d think you were the CEO.” Ahn Jung-hwan, who entrusted Choo Sung-hoon with the signboard of a restaurant on an uninhabited island, watched him work out of concern. Choo Sung-hoon accepted Ahn Jung-hwan‘s interest, saying, “You just have to worry about yourself. I think you really like me.”

The island that Ahn Jung-hwan chose that day was a 0.5-star uninhabited island, and the reason he came back here again was to catch red sea bream, which is a seasonal and high-quality ingredient. On the ship heading out to sea, marriage proposals between Ahn Jung-hwan’s son Lee-hwan and Choo Sung-hoon‘s daughter Sarang suddenly came and went. Ahn Jung-hwan shouted, “Sarang-i is good, but I can’t give Lee Hwan to Choo Sung-hoon,” and Choo Sung-hoon was secretly upset, but he quickly calmed down when Kim Nam-il said, “It‘s a waste to waste Lee.” Ahn Jung-hwan then started to cry, saying, “What’s wrong with Lee Hwan?” which caused an explosion of laughter.

The emotional dom fishing caught the attention of viewers in a way they had never seen before. It was a method of luring emotional dom by hitting the surface of the sea with a heavy stone. Then, fighter Choo Sung-hoon, a “hitting expert,” stepped forward. Choo Sung-hoon‘s extraordinary destructive power stole everyone’s attention. Here, large red sea breams that made people doubt their eyes were caught one after another, and Choo Sung Hoon shyly kissed the red sea bream, making people laugh even though he was disgusted by Ahn Jung Hwan‘s words to kiss them.



After the red sea bream catch, a ‘Baemakase’ was held on the boat, where the captain sliced the freshly caught fish into sashimi. Ahn Jung Hwan, who tasted the thick red sea bream sashimi, praised it, saying, “This deserves a Michelin star,” and Choo Sung Hoon also exclaimed, “This is really delicious.” Despite everyone’s dissuasion, Choo Sung Hoon said, “I‘m fine,” and showed off a unique mukbang by putting an excessive amount of wasabi on the sashimi. In the end, everyone burst into laughter as they watched Choo Sung Hoon looking for water with a flushed face.

When they returned to the island with three red sea breams to be used as ingredients for the guests, Chef Im Yeong-eun was waiting for them at the catering stand. In addition, the abalone and conch caught by the frogs, and the black rockfish and clams obtained by fishing were secured as ingredients for the day.

The first dish of the catering stand was ‘Abalone Conch Water Minari Pancake’. Its visual and delicious smell stimulated Choo Sung Hoon’s appetite, who usually doesn‘t eat vegetables. Contrary to the saying that lions never eat grass, he showed off his eating skills by making water minari pancakes with his bare hands.

The next dish was ‘Fried Red Sea Bream’. There was no room for the workers because he had to serve them one by one to the guests, but Choo Sung Hoon didn’t give up. He went to the guests‘ tables with a solemn determination, as if he was going into the ring to win, and knelt down to get the red sea bream. The first sight of Choo Sung Hoon eating sea bream with tears in his eyes made me curious about its taste.

Choo Sung Hoon worked as hard as he ate. The catering company sat right next to him, and he played his role as a sous chef while flashing his luxury bracelet. When making the last dish, ‘Rock and Clam Kalguksu’, he personally rolled out the noodle dough and cut it to complete the noodles. The catering company also made ‘Pickled Chives’ to eat with the kalguksu. After all the food was served to the customers, the workers also enjoyed their meal. At this time, Choo Sung Hoon was completely absorbed in the taste of the vegetables presented by the catering company, and he inhaled the water parsley and chives, causing laughter.

Meanwhile, the preview released at the end of the broadcast showed the conflict between Ahn Jung Hwan and Choo Sung Hoon, the ‘crazy partners’ on a deserted island, right up until the point of breaking up, stimulating curiosity. MBC’s ‘Good to Get a Good Rest’ airs every Monday at 9 p.m.
