‘Talk Partner 25’ takes viewers on a virtual journey through stories and landscapes from cities like Shenyang, China, to Paris, France.
In the JTBC entertainment program ‘Talk Partner 25’ (directed by Hong Sang-hoon and Kim Sun-jun), which will air on the 28th at 8:50 PM, actor Koo Bon-seung and historical storyteller Sun Kim embark on a unique virtual trip to Shenyang, the heart of Manchuria in China, and Paris, France.
First, in the Talk Partner direct purchase corner, a time travel experience in Shenyang, China, unfolds. The Chinese Talk Partner visits the Shenyang Imperial Palace, which retains the atmosphere of the Qing Dynasty. This site, considered one of China's two major palaces along with the Forbidden City, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004. Notably, the Great Hall, which distinctly showcases Qing Dynasty architecture, can also be seen, raising expectations.
Shenyang's restaurants that combine art and cuisine also draw attention. The food served on plates that replicate paintings from the Tang and Northern Song dynasties, along with intricately plated fresh seafood, adds visual enjoyment. Watching this, Lee Chan-won exclaims, “I really can't eat that,” expressing his amazement.
In the Talk Partner GO corner, where travel is pre-verified, the show heads to France at the request of viewers looking for a unique family trip. The French Talk Partner embarks on an amphibious bus tour that crosses land and rivers, capturing iconic Parisian landmarks like Les Invalides and the Alexander III Bridge in one glance.
Next, the French Talk Partner visits the oldest pastry shop in France, founded in 1730 by Louis XV's personal baker, to taste the original baba au rhum, a dessert soaked in rum, which whets the appetite. Additionally, at the first amusement park in Paris, Parc de la Villette, attractions for all ages, from carousels to a 50 km/h roller coaster, are introduced, stimulating viewers' curiosity.
The virtual journey that encompasses history and tradition in Shenyang, the center of Manchuria, and Paris, France, will be aired on JTBC’s ‘Talk Partner 25’ on the 28th at 8:50 PM.
