The tumultuous journey of actors Sung Dong-il and Shin Seung-hwan to England has been revealed.

On the first episode of JTBC‘s new entertainment program ‘Studying Language Before It’s Too Late - Shala Shala’ (hereafter ‘Shala Shala’), which aired for the first time at 10:20 PM on the 5th (Wednesday), actors Sung Dong-il, Kim Kwang-gyu, Uhm Ki-joon, Jang Hyuk, and Shin Seung-hwan took their first steps into their English language training in England.

They arrived in London for their English language training, but the road to their accommodations was by no means smooth. The members, who had to travel to Cambridge by public transportation without the help of the production crew, seemed to have a relatively smooth start under the leadership of Sung Dong-il and Jang Hyuk, but they encountered a series of unexpected difficulties, such as mistakes such as mistaking the platform and miscommunication with Londoners. Eventually, after being stuck in the London Underground for over 3 hours, Sung Dong-il, who was clearly exhausted, expressed his anger by saying, “Let’s just take a taxi.”

After a long 18-hour struggle, the five finally arrived at their Cambridge accommodation. However, what greeted them was not a cozy bed or a warm dinner, but an empty kitchen. Late at night, when all the shops were already closed, they ended up having a “survival mukbang” by eating cup ramen and the aged kimchi that Sung Dong-il had airlifted.

The next day, they headed to downtown Cambridge to prepare for school. However, Sung Dong-il found out that, unlike in Korea, there was no bus arrival announcement, so he naturally had a free-talking (?) with a local and even managed to get an impromptu city tour. After that, the members completely transformed into middle-aged students by putting on their dream Cambridge school uniforms. In particular, Sung Dong-il was thrilled, saying, “I was so jealous of college students wearing clothes like this,” and the members watching him also reacted excitedly, saying that it felt like they really were international students.

In particular, on this day, the day before entering school, Kim Kwang-gyu, who was preparing for his first barbecue party, was given an unexpected mission to go to a neighbor‘s house and borrow a torch. Kim Kwang-gyu, who pressed the doorbell in the midst of tension, succeeded in miraculous communication with the quick-witted neighbor and gained confidence in English. After many twists and turns, the five actors ended up having their first barbecue party in Cambridge, England. Among them, Sung Dong-il showed off his skills, from the perfect marinade to his elaborate grilling skills, by creating a steak with extraordinary visuals. In particular, when they completed the ’Aged Kimchi Steak‘ with aged kimchi imported from Korea, Jang Hyuk exclaimed, “This tastes like something you would get at a restaurant.”.

Meanwhile, in the second episode of ’Shalala Shala‘, the results of the members’ ’level test‘ will be revealed, and the protagonist who will receive 8 points will be revealed.
