On the 17th, a video titled 'Tried Mala Crab Ramen with Chef Jeong Ji-seon and Cheolgabang Chef' was released on the YouTube channel 'MMTG Munmyeongteukgeup.'
In the video, Jeong Ji-seon and Cheolgabang Chef (Im Tae-hoon) appeared as guests and discussed various topics.
The MC, broadcaster Jaejae, mentioned the moment when Chef Jeong Ji-seon blushed during the elimination mission. When Chef Im Tae-hoon asked to be written as the eliminated member, Chef Jeong sharply replied, “Stay still,” which became a notable scene.
Regarding this, Chef Jeong Ji-seon said, “It was a sudden mission. Everyone was already in position when it started,” and added, “Tae-hoon has a personality that steps up even if it means a disadvantage to himself, but when he voluntarily said he would leave the team, I got a little angry.” Chef Im Tae-hoon also said, “Since Jeong Ji-seon, who has never gotten angry, said that to me, I thought I should just stay quiet,” which made everyone laugh.
Additionally, Cheolgabang Chef Im Tae-hoon revealed that if he had not been eliminated, he would have presented his life dish, ‘Siraegi Jjajang’ (dried radish greens with black bean sauce).
He said, “I don’t eat siraegi now,” and shared, “When I was young, my grandmother lived alone, so the side dishes were either kimchi or siraegi.”
He continued, “Even as an adult, when eating side dishes, honestly, I didn’t even want to look at or smell it,” and added, “But as time passed, I realized that because of siraegi, I could be healthier, and I wanted to express my gratitude to my grandmother, so I think that’s why I would have made siraegi jjajang.”
Meanwhile, since its release, Heukbaek Yorisah has ranked first in the Netflix Global Top 10 TV Non-English category for three consecutive weeks, gaining attention both domestically and internationally. This is the first achievement for a Netflix entertainment program produced in Korea. Season 2 of Heukbaek Yorisah is expected to be released in the second half of next year.
