Jun Hyun-moo’s Unplanned Journey 2 Dives Into Incheon’s Hidden Culinary Gems
In the latest episode of Jun Hyun-moo’s Unplanned Journey 2, set to air on June 9 at 9:10 p.m. (KST) on MBN and Channel S, viewers dive into a spicy and heartfelt trip to Incheon with television host Jun Hyun-moo, travel YouTuber Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin), and special guest star Lee Hyun-yi.
Episode 28 kicks off with the trio passionately tasting their personal picks from the Incheon Top Three Dakgangjeong—the city’s famed sweet-and-spicy fried chicken delights. Each plate brings fiery debates and fiery bites, as they champion their favorites. The culinary adventure doesn’t stop there.
When Jun Hyun-moo asks, “What comes to mind when you hear Incheon?”, Lee instantly exclaims, “Chinatown!”, to which Jun replies, “Exactly. But our next food stop isn’t there.” Instead, he introduces a hidden gem—an authentic Chinese restaurant run by a Chinese-Korean couple, open just four hours a day and currently topping local SNS charts as a ‘hot place’.
Riding to the location, Lee Hyun-yi opens up about her personal journey. “I got married at 29. It’s been 13 years already,” she says, initiating a soul-baring conversation. Jun Hyun-moo jokes about her husband being his look-alike, and Lee humorously agrees, comparing her spouse to a Shih Tzu breed—like herself and Jun.
She then shares the story of how they met: “Four models and four corporate employees met through a blind meeting. My husband picked me over the classically pretty one.” But the love story wasn’t without bumps. After the birth of their second child, she confesses to going through a severe slump. “It got so bad, I’d sometimes hit his pillow in frustration.”
The episode teases whether Lee managed to overcome that phase and what flavors await inside the little-known Chinese restaurant. For fans of authentic eats, unfiltered truths, and heartfelt humor, this episode is one not to miss.
