In the KBS2 entertainment program 'New Product Launch Pyeon Restaurant' (hereafter 'Pyeon Restaurant'), Ryu Soo-young showcased the charm of K-Food in Macau.
On February 28, the second day of Ryu Soo-young's business trip to Macau was aired. At the global gourmet festival 'Macau Food Festival', Ryu Soo-young actively promoted K-Food, particularly the K-Dessert fish-shaped bread. During this process, he developed a new fish-shaped bread called 'Sachi-bong', which caught attention.
On that day, Ryu Soo-young tasted various cuisines from different cultures at the Macau Food Festival. From his first-ever pigeon dish to a menu he praised as “I want to learn the recipe. Life chicken!” The diverse culinary journey with Ryu Soo-young provided viewers at home with a sense of satisfaction on Friday evening.
Meanwhile, Ryu Soo-young discovered a Korean food booth selling K-Snacks and K-Desserts. However, he was puzzled by the lack of customers. It turned out that Macau is still somewhat a barren land for Korean food. Seeing that the globally popular fish-shaped bread was not selling well, Ryu Soo-young said, “I will think about it too,” and immediately began researching recipes on the spot. Although it was not easy to create a recipe just in his head, Ryu Soo-young succeeded.
The K-Dessert NEW fish-shaped bread that Ryu Soo-young came up with was Sachi-bong (apple cheese fish-shaped bread). Inspired by the apple pie from a famous fast-food chain, the recipe for 'Sachi-bong' captivated locals with its addictive sweet and salty flavor. Although Ryu Soo-young was somewhat clumsy as it was his first time selling, he soon caught the attention of customers with various charming performances. Ultimately, Ryu Soo-young's 'Sachi-bong' sold out on the same day and received positive reviews.
The moment Ryu Soo-young baked fish-shaped bread for his first customer recorded a viewership rating of 6% nationwide according to Nielsen Korea, marking the 'best minute' of the broadcast. Successfully completing another overseas business trip, Ryu Soo-young is transforming into a global K-Food star alongside 'Pyeon Restaurant'. 'New Product Launch Pyeon Restaurant' featuring Ryu Soo-young airs every Friday at 8:30 PM.
