Historical figures and mysterious nature are introduced.

The JTBC ‘Tokpawon 25 Hours’, which will be aired on the 24th, will provide a different kind of enjoyment with an Austrian online trip and an Okhotsk Sea online trip following the footsteps of the most beautiful and ill-fated empress in European history, Empress Elisabeth.

According to the production team, the Austrian Tokpawon heads to the Augustiner Church, where numerous imperial family weddings, including the wedding of Elisabeth and Emperor Franz Joseph, took place. What is the love story of the two that intrigued the cast enough to be called a twist of fate?

In addition, the Hofburg Palace attracts attention as it offers a glimpse into the space where Elisabeth and Franz Joseph lived with their children. Everything from the dress Elisabeth wore to her Hungarian coronation to her portrait is on display. Unlike the splendid appearance of the imperial palace, it also tells the sad story of Elisabeth‘s tragic married life where she suffered from depression due to conflicts with her mother-in-law and her son Rudolf taking his own life, and of her only wearing black clothes and accessories.


On the other hand, the Japanese Tokpawon that left for the Sea of Okhotsk visits the Okhotsk Tokari Center, the only place in Japan that protects seals, and a seafood restaurant that was selected by a global gastronomic guide as a restaurant that offers great food at a reasonable price. In particular, it is said that the cast members were envious of the seafood restaurant where they tasted a rice bowl topped with various seafood such as conch, crab, and salmon, and fried shirako, which is called iri in Korea. Lee Chan-won said, “The texture is like pudding. It goes down so easily,” he actively recommends, making us even more curious about its taste.

Above all, he also introduces a special experience where you can wear a dry suit and walk on the drift ice of the Sea of Okhotsk. Tokpawon will break the drift ice that is thick enough for an adult man to stand on, and after getting it, he will take a unique certification photo to provide vicarious satisfaction. He will also board a drift ice cruise that sails while breaking the drift ice of the Sea of Okhotsk, and the wonderful spectacle of the drift ice moving as if dancing along the waves created by the cruise as it passes will be awe-inspiring.

Meanwhile, musical actress Kim So-hyun and historical storyteller Sun Kim will appear as guests on this day, and a dark tour of Suzhou, China and Mussolini will also be foreshadowed.

The broadcast will be at 8:50 p.m. on the 24th.
