A Food Connoisseur’s Journey Through the Heart of Chungcheongnam-do
Unveiling the Flavors of Chungcheongnam-do
Renowned Korean television host Jun Hyun-moo returns with a gastronomic adventure in the 34th episode of his reality series, ‘Jun Hyun-moo Project 2.’ Airing on MBN and Channel S, this exciting episode takes viewers on a mouthwatering journey to the city of Dangjin, known for its rich resources and culinary heritage.
The First Stop: Dangjin’s Hidden Treasure
This episode airs on October 20th at 9:10 p.m., as Jun Hyun-moo along with KwakTube (Kwak Jun-bin) explore the ‘Great Field of Delicious Food’. Their mission: to tackle the unique challenge of experiencing ‘Dakgaejang’ for the first time, a spicy chicken soup that has the people lining up from the early hours.
A Culinary Mastermind’s Perspective
Upon arriving in Dangjin, Jun Hyun-moo announced, “This place is a treasure trove of ingredients. I’m planning to eat heartily here and explore the entire Chungnam region.” With anticipation building, the duo made their way to a local dakgaejang restaurant where the line formed as early as 8:40 a.m.
Surprisingly, the restaurant offers only one menu item, which left the audience and our hosts in awe at the authenticity of the experience. “This place is the real deal!” exclaimed Jun Hyun-moo.
Spicy with a Side of Humor
When the side dishes arrived, Jun Hyun-moo predicted, “The main dish is bound to be spicy,” expressing his concern for KwakTube, known for his low spice tolerance. However, all concerns dissipated as just one bite of the soup prompted KwakTube to shout, “This umami is out of this world!”
Jun Hyun-moo, true to his routine, added chilies and pepper to his soup, relishing the authentic flavors. “People often ask if Jun Hyun-moo can handle spicy food, and I tell them he’s obsessively in love with it,” quipped KwakTube, drawing laughter from everyone around.
