Hwang Kwang-hee shared the difficult time filming.

On the morning of the 7th, a production conference for JTBC‘s new entertainment program ‘Street Food Vendor’ was held at the Stanford Hotel in Mapo-gu, Seoul. Ryu Soo-young, Fabri, Hwang Kwang-hee, Shin Hyun-ji, Bae In-hyuk, CP Kim Min-seok, and PD Kim So-young attended the event. Jeon So-mi was absent due to her personal schedule.

Bae In-hyuk said, “When I saw the cast, I thought, ’What kind of combination is this?‘ But the synergy that came from them was really fun.” Shin Hyun-ji said, “I’m well-known to the public as a model, but I felt a different kind of excitement that I could show a new side of myself. When I heard who was appearing as a chef, I thought, ‘This is a game that can be played.’” She added, “At home, we don‘t have a separate mother’s recipe. We follow Ryu Soo-young‘s recipe. I’m more familiar with my senior‘s cooking than my mom’s. I also recently visited Chef Fabri‘s restaurant. I’m honored to be able to work with these people,” he said.

Hwang Kwang-hee said, “I think it‘s because K-pop is famous, but a lot of people recognize Jeon So-mi. The drama is also famous, so a lot of people recognize Bae In-hyuk. They didn’t recognize me. That‘s why I said I was a friend of ’Squid Game‘ (Im Si-wan).” “To be honest, I was burdened by food variety shows. I’m good at serving, but I‘m not good at cooking. But this time, I decided to try serving and cooking. It was really hard. I was going to call the company, but I held back because I’m 38 years old and I thought I had to hold back in order to become an adult,” he said, making people laugh.

Hwang Kwang-hee added laughter by confessing his difficult time on the spot, saying, “I endured it diligently” and “I went alone without a manager and had no one to talk to about my difficulties.”

‘Street Food Vendor’ is a program where those who are serious about Korean food and recipes travel around Spain, the kitchen of the Mediterranean, while cooking on a food bike. ‘Mr. Eo-nam’ Ryu Soo-young, Michelin chef Fabri for 15 consecutive years, and Hwang Kwang-hee, Shin Hyun-ji, Bae In-hyuk, and Jeon So-mi will deliver delicious Korean food and cheerful energy.

‘Street Food Vendor’ will first air at 10:40 p.m. on the 8th.
