Meanwhile, Japanese Tokpawon reveals a list of authentic restaurants in Tokyo, Japan through an online trip.From sandwich shops that open early in the morning, to Inaniwa Udon, one of the three major udon restaurants in Japan, to high-end Japanese kappo restaurants that even Chef Jeong Ho-yeong personally makes reservations for, they move their busy steps.Among them, the kappo restaurant introduces the essence of seafood dishes such as koma saba made with mackerel from Fukuoka and Kinki.

In the US San Diego LAN trip, they head to Old Town, the center of California history.Old Town is a place where various cultures such as Spain, Mexico, and America coexist, earning it the nickname of California’s folk village.The US talk show visits a Mexican restaurant that sells various traditional Mexican foods and makes the cast envious by tasting dishes that are also suitable for Korean tastes, such as beef chajita, tamales, and enchiladas.

Also, in San Ysidro, a border city between the US and Mexico, an American reporter will cross the border and capture local scenery, including the Trump Wall and commemorative clock tower in Tijuana, Mexico.Traces of Korean companies will be captured here, adding to the fun as an unexpected discovery.
