Mixed martial arts athlete Choo Sung-hoon poured out harsh criticism on former swimmer Park Tae-hwan's cooking.
In the episode aired on the 13th, KBS2’s ‘New Menu Launch Restaurant’ (hereinafter ‘Restaurant’) depicted Park Tae-hwan's daily life.
On that day, Park Tae-hwan sent the boiled pork he made for the ‘Restaurant’ competition to his close friend Choo Sung-hoon, asking for his evaluation. Park Tae-hwan introduced it by saying, "I prepared black beer boiled pork, which I usually cook comfortably."
After tasting the boiled pork, Choo Sung-hoon said, "What a waste," raising curiosity. He then honestly evaluated, "It doesn't taste good," which drew laughter.
Choo Sung-hoon harshly commented, "Park Tae-hwan won a gold medal, but his food is a silver medal. It's not a gold medal. It's disqualified." To this, Park Tae-hwan retorted, "The one who is disqualified is not me, but Choo Sung-hoon."
Meanwhile, ‘New Menu Launch Restaurant’ airs every Friday at 8:30 PM.
