Lee Jang-woo, who is passionate about food, will show viewers the charm of ‘home cooking’ ahead of his wedding in November.

On the new MBN /MBC every1 entertainment program ‘Do You Know My Home Cooking’, which will be aired for the first time on July 9th, Lee Jang-woo will present a unique home cooking with BamBam.

‘Do You Know Home Cooking’ is a ‘global home cooking evangelism project’ in which Lee Jang-woo travels around the world and presents a home-cooked meal to locals.

Lee Jang-woo chooses Thailand, the ‘country of gastronomy’, as his first travel destination, and explores hidden local restaurants, experiences local markets and culture, and tries a variety of foods.He also visits the homes of locals he meets on the spot, prepares a hearty Korean home-cooked meal, and becomes friends over a warm meal, presenting a special journey.

The first star to introduce home cooking in Thailand with Lee Jang Woo is GOT7’s BamBam.

He is so popular locally that he is called the ‘Prince of Thailand’, and he is a ‘know-it-all’ star who can communicate perfectly with various foreigners as he is fluent in not only Thai and Korean, but also English and Japanese.He has also worked with Lee Jang-woo on variety shows, so he is expected to not only show ‘trustworthy chemistry’ but also play the role of a reliable assistant chef.

In the midst of this, the production team surprisingly released an official teaser featuring Lee Jang-woo and BamBam.First, in the teaser featuring Lee Jang-woo and BamBam together, Lee Jang-woo is seen wearing a backpack and seriously asking BamBam, “Do you want some home-cooked food?” in what appears to be an overseas location, before handing him some home-cooked food that he made himself.

BamBam tilts his head and says, “Hmm?” and then smiles with satisfaction after taking a spoonful of the home-cooked meal that Jang Woo Lee fed him.

In another teaser, Lee Jang-woo meets various foreigners, and while offering them bibimbap, pork rice bowl, and other dishes, he asks, “Is this Douyounojipbap?” The foreigners are also bewildered, but when they try Lee Jang-woo’s signature dish, their pupils dilate and they smile broadly.

As their expressions brighten, Lee Jang-woo confidently shouts, “Korean home cooking to the world!” The teaser strongly shows Lee Jang-woo’s determination to spread ‘home cooking’, which goes beyond simply delicious food and brings comfort and affection to those who eat it, to the world, and viewers are also sending enthusiastic interest and support.
