Kwanghee “I don‘t like makchang” Firmly → “This is the first time I’ve seen something like ‘crispy on the outside and soft on the inside’”… Overcoming trauma? (K-food)
On the new Channel S entertainment show ‘All About K-Bob’, which will air for the first time at 8 PM today (the 19th), Hwang Kwang-hee, Yoon Doo-joon, and Jo Seo-hyung will team up and go find the ‘1st K-Bob branch’.
On this day, Hwang Kwang-hee and Yoon Doo-joon visit a restaurant in Euljiro run by chef Jo Seo-hyung to have a send-off ceremony. Chef Jo treats the two to his signature dish, and after a friendly mukbang, the two reveal their confident aspirations. Hwang Kwang-hee says, “Didn’t we get together to introduce real ‘K-restaurants?’ and declares, ”I‘m going to dig up high-quality information about restaurants in the future.“ Yoon Doo-joon also promises, ”I think the reason many people watch mukbangs is because they need a food buddy. I’ll try my best to eat deliciously to satisfy the viewers vicariously.“ Chef Jo Seo-hyung says, ”As a chef, I‘ll share more professional explanations and great tips on how to eat deliciously,“ and receives enthusiastic applause from the two.
Immediately after, the three of them set out on the streets of Amsa-dong, Gangdong-gu, Seoul in search of the ‘1st K-food restaurant’ that matches the keyword ‘Mom’. While walking down the street, Hwang Kwang-hee says, ”Actually, there’s a meridian master in Amsa-dong, so I used to come here often. He makes a sudden confession, “The person who blew my chin off~”. While everyone bursts out laughing at his sudden statement, they arrive at a makguksu restaurant. At this restaurant that sells makguksu along with dakgalbi, the three order various kinds of makguksu and show off their noodle-making skills. However, Yoon Doo-joon surprises everyone by discovering a hidden kick unique to this restaurant while eating the makguksu. Jo Seo-hyung explains the order in which to eat makguksu even more deliciously, and also reveals his own eating tip, earning Hwang Kwang-hee and Yoon Doo-joon‘s ‘respect’.
While attention is focused on where the ‘1st K-rice restaurant’ that the three have discovered will be, they head to Shindang-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul in search of the second ‘K-rice’. The main menu here is ‘makchang’, but Hwang Kwang-hee says, “I actually don’t like makguksu that much. He confesses his ‘food trauma’ because he has bad memories of the first tripe restaurant he went to. Chef Jo Seo-hyung then personally grills the tripe for him and even makes the sauce on site to hand over to Hwang Gwang-hee. After a while, Hwang Gwang-hee puts the special sauce on the tripe that Chef Jo Seo-hyung grilled and exclaims, “This is the first time I‘ve had something ‘crispy on the outside and soft on the inside’!” Indeed, curiosity is rising about the identity of the second restaurant that made the three people ‘holics’ and what Jo Seo-hyung’s custom recipe is.
‘Food Experts’ Chefs Hwang Kwang-hee, Yoon Doo-joon, and Jo Seo-hyung have come together to uncover the truth about ‘K-food’, ‘K-mukbang’, and ‘K-bap’, which is at the center of them all, and even present a custom recipe. The first episode of Channel S‘s ‘All About K-bap’ will air at 8 p.m. today (the 19th).
Meanwhile, information about the stores and special events introduced on ‘All About K-bap’ can be found on Channel S’s official SNS.
