Jeon Hyun-moo continued to build rapport with Hong Joo-yeon.
On the afternoon of the 8th, KBS2's entertainment program 'The Boss's Ears Are Donkey Ears' (hereinafter 'Sadangui') depicted the meeting between Jeon Hyun-moo and Hong Joo-yeon.
In this episode, Lee Soon-sil said, "I will develop a new dumpling," and prepared a new menu with the staff. Lee Soon-sil and Director Jang Byeong-taek divided into teams to compete in making dumplings. While preparing North Korean-style dumplings, Lee Soon-sil minced shrimp, clams, and pollock roe. Jang Byeong-taek said, "You can lay dumpling skin instead of seaweed, put in the filling, add plenty of cheese, and roll it like gimbap," and started making unique dumplings. As Jang Byeong-taek continued to tease, Lee Soon-sil provocatively asked, "Did you bring a gun? Did you bring a gun?" which made everyone laugh.
After the first dish, Lee Soon-sil prepared super spicy dumplings, saying that North Koreans endure the winter cold with spicy food, while Director Jang Byeong-taek's team prepared rainbow dumplings. After the dumpling-making competition, three employees of Lee Soon-sil and three defectors appeared as judges for the tasting evaluation.
Na Min-hee said, "Lee Soon-sil's clam king dumplings taste like my mom's cooking," glancing at Lee Soon-sil, which brought laughter. The tasting panel from the South, who ate the super spicy dumplings, was busy drinking water, while the North's tasting panel ate the dumplings deliciously without changing their expressions. Noh Cheol-min commented, "These days, young people are crazy about spicy food. I think they will love it. Oh, it's spicy..." and gave an honest review.
As a result of the score tally, the third place went to rainbow dumplings, second place to clam dumplings, and the coveted first place went to Director Jang Byeong-taek's gimbap fried dumplings. Lee Soon-sil said, "I can't accept this competition. Live revolutionarily! My taste is the best. I will make the new menu mine," showing pride in her menu. The panelists then tasted the super spicy dumplings, and Park Myung-soo exclaimed, "Oh, it's spicy! What is this!" while making a grimace. In contrast, other panelists said, "I think this one will taste better if the skin is thicker," "To be honest, the filling is really delicious," and "It is indeed tasty," enjoying the dumplings.
The second boss was Chef Jeong Ji-seon. At 9 PM, Jeong Ji-seon appeared in Seochon and expressed her ambitions to Chef Kim Hee-won, saying, "It's time to form a squad! A new era is about to begin. I am the number one female chef in Chinese cuisine." The place they visited was the restaurant of Chef Lim Tae-hoon, who is known for his iron bag cooking. Lim Tae-hoon was surprised and said, "Sister, you are busy these days. How did you come?"
Jeong Ji-seon said, "I came all the way here after a long time, so let's eat the food you make," and infiltrated the kitchen. Lim Tae-hoon quickly started cooking, saying, "I will make eight treasure rice, fried lamb, and Dongpo pork." Jeong Ji-seon instructed Chef Kim Hee-won to "write it down," and Lim Tae-hoon was surprised, saying, "What are you doing? Why are you writing someone else's trade secrets?"
Kim Hee-won asked, "Did you make it like this during 'The Black and White Chef'?" Lim Tae-hoon replied, "I had to make two in 100 minutes, but I took 75 minutes. I was nervous." He then asked, "Weren't you nervous, sister?" Jeong Ji-seon confidently replied, "I don't get nervous when I go to places like that. If I had to face you at the end, what would have happened?" Lim Tae-hoon responded, "I acknowledge your adaptability. But I will win in taste," surprising the panelists.
Afterward, Jeong Ji-seon and Kim Hee-won tasted the three dishes prepared by Lim Tae-hoon. After tasting the Dongpo pork, Jeong Ji-seon said, "The meat and tenderness are preserved! Usually, when you steam pork belly, it can be greasy, but this one is not greasy. It's a perfect taste, neither too much nor too little," acknowledging his cooking.
The third boss was announcer Eom Ji-in. Kim Sook mentioned, "After the last broadcast, there were many pink articles about Jeon Hyun-moo and announcer Hong Joo-yeon," referring to the atmosphere between the two. Eom Ji-in replied, "After this article came out, announcer Hong Joo-yeon stopped appearing on 'News Plaza.' It seems Jeon Hyun-moo was quite surprised to hear this. But it was due to the transfer of anchors, and she will be back. So, you don't have to worry," reassuring Jeon Hyun-moo.
With Kim Jin-woong, Heo Yoo-won, Jeong Eun-hye, and announcer Hong Joo-yeon all participating, Eom Ji-in said, "Senior Hyun-moo is very busy and doesn't have time to treat juniors to meals, but thanks to me, this opportunity has arisen," announcing it as the day to welcome Jeon Hyun-moo.
A little later, Jeon Hyun-moo appeared, carrying bagels and cakes in both hands. Hong Joo-yeon was the first to greet him, saying, "Hello. I am Hong Joo-yeon, announcer from the 48th class. Nice to meet you," shyly. The panelists went wild, and Lee Soon-sil said, "We women can tell just by looking into men's eyes," while Park Myung-soo teased, "Take another look," making fun of Jeon Hyun-moo, whose smile was beaming.
Jeon Hyun-moo mentioned, "Anyway, there was an article about this friend not long ago... Did the reporters listen to me so well?" referring to the dating rumors. Hong Joo-yeon shyly said, "Actually, I watched from afar in Paris. I had to go out for filming, so I watched from a distance and ran away." Park Myung-soo added, "No, Hyun-moo disappeared at night in Paris," which flustered Jeon Hyun-moo.
Jeon Hyun-moo told Heo Yoo-won, "I graduated from Hong Kong University. I also went to school overseas for middle and high school, so I'm confident in English," and advised, "Then you have a huge advantage. I can only ask three questions with an interpreter. I interviewed Keanu Reeves and asked three questions. After two questions, there were two minutes left. So, there was no content in the interview. You speak English well. You will have many opportunities for English interviews."
He also told Jeong Eun-hye, who said, "I want to do both news and entertainment," "That's not possible. Wanting to do both means you can't do both. You have to focus on one."
Finally, to Hong Joo-yeon, who said, "I want to work in sports," he advised, "If you are a sports enthusiast, there are many things you can do. If I were you, I would study sports a lot on my own. Whether you end up broadcasting or not, dive deep into baseball!" adding a personal touch to his advice. Park Myung-soo teased, "Look at his eyes! He speaks directly. It's different from others! His mouth shape says 'I love you,'" making everyone laugh. Kim Jin-woong, who admires Jeon Hyun-moo, said, "I just want to be an entertainer," expressing his opinion, but the advice time ended with Jeong Eun-hye's interception, bringing laughter.
When Hong Joo-yeon said, "Senior Lee Jae-hoo is my role model," Jeon Hyun-moo responded, "That's me," creating a sense of camaraderie. He continued, "I was surprised in Paris. But Joo-yeon, if you are interested in being a sports caster, you are in a completely blue ocean," focusing only on Hong Joo-yeon and making the panelists excited.
'Sadangui' can be seen every Sunday at 4:45 PM on KBS2.
