Korea's representative food experts are coming together to study the 'Restaurant Formula'.

The MBC M entertainment program ‘Restaurant Formula’, which will premiere on March 20 at 8 PM, is not just about eating a lot, but rather about researching how to enjoy restaurant menus more deliciously. The show will explore genuine restaurants across the country, uncovering and analyzing the secrets of these eateries to develop a special formula for enjoying their menus even more.

The cast members researching the ‘Restaurant Formula’ include comedian Hong Hyun-hee, who showcases extraordinary eating shows including crab shells, global YouTuber So-young, who boasts 11.6 million subscribers with her unique eating broadcasts, and comedian Jo Soo-young, who gained attention with the popular segment ‘What About Defconn?’ on Gag Concert.

As the eldest among the researchers, Hong Hyun-hee will act as a food professor showcasing high-class (?) eating, while professional eater So-young will share her eating know-how and tips. The youngest, Jo Soo-young, will provide pre-information about restaurants to assist in the research of the restaurant formula.

The first episode airing on that day will feature ‘Historical Site Restaurants’, visiting a roasted duck restaurant with overwhelming visuals reminiscent of a historical site, from the entrance to the appearance of the owner, as well as a small gimbap specialty store located in the heart of history, such as Gwanghwamun and Jongmyo, revealing the secret behind a restaurant that built a business on small gimbap.

In particular, at the small gimbap restaurant, it is rumored that Hong Hyun-hee was captivated by the addictive taste of the small gimbap and even took some home to share with her son, Jun-beom.

What could be the special secret of the restaurant that captivated them? The restaurant research project ‘Restaurant Formula’, which presents a new paradigm of eating shows, will premiere on the 20th at 8 PM on MBC M.
