Hanhae appeared as a guest on the 63rd episode of T-Cast E Channel's 'I Like Rice on Saturdays' (I Like Tobap), which aired on the 11th, and went in search of ten flavors of Cheonan, including King's Special Soy Sauce Crab, Fresh Noodle Pasta, and Grilled Dumplings.
Hanhae, who appeared as a guest, said, "I really like eating. I recently gained about 15kg, but I gained not weight but happiness," and expressed strong confidence and anticipation for the food trip with Tobabs.
However, her confident appearance was short-lived. Hanhae, who teamed up with Hyun Joo-yeop (Hippo) and Hibab and went on a restaurant chase, saw Hyun Joo-yeop and Hibab eating 5 and 7 servings of extra-large soy sauce crab, respectively, and said, "I really like eating, but in fact, I'm just a huge fan of it." “I can’t eat a lot,” he confessed.
Hanhae, who was exhausted after eating three servings of King's Special Soy Sauce Crab, burst into laughter by asking PD Lee Young-sik, "What is the purpose of assigning me to this team (Hyun Joo-yeop, Hi-Bap Team)?"
Then, looking at Hibab emptying 3 bowls of gobong rice for 7 servings of King's Special Soy Sauce Crab, the pair said, "I don't know what I'm looking at this morning. Isn't the owner also amazed? Seeing the two of you (Hyeon Joo-yeop and Hibab) right in front of me feels like a dream." I couldn't hide my surprise at Hipz's mukbang skills.
At the second restaurant, a raw noodle pasta restaurant, watching Hibab eat a plate of pasta in 10 seconds, he praised Hyun Joo-yeop and Hibab's mukbang class, saying, "There are so many sights that are hard to believe even when you see them with your own eyes."
Hyun Joo-yeop and Hibab tried all of the pasta restaurant's menu and placed additional orders. Hanhae, who saw this, complained to the store owner, saying, "We just ate 15 servings of King's Special Soy Sauce Crab Sauce. Please understand my feelings," making everyone laugh.
Watching Hibab finish the additional pasta dish in one bite, he devastated the scene by saying, “I wonder if you’re eating with a trash can under your seat.”
Meanwhile, the local economy revitalization project 'I Like Food on Saturdays' is a mukbang variety show where stars who are serious about eating gather together to find hidden local restaurants. It can be watched every Saturday at 5 PM on the Teacast E channel.
