The upcoming episode 383 of MBC's 'The Manager', airing on the 31st, will feature an exclusive look into the daily life of Yoo Yong-wook, who left a strong impression with his smoking techniques on 'Black and White Chef 2'. The episode promises to uncover everything about 'Yoo Yong-wook BBQ', known for its overwhelming taste that attracts top corporate executives.
Contrary to the saying 'chefs don't cook at home', Yoo starts his day early in the kitchen, preparing meals. True to his title, he begins his day with barbecue, crafting a meal that perfectly suits the tastes of his wife and two children. Afterward, he heads to his restaurant to dive into research, showcasing his expertise as a research director.
The show also highlights Yoo's exceptional employee benefits, which are as impressive as his barbecue. To celebrate the New Year, Yoo gifted his hardworking staff with presents worth a total of 10 million won, and even gave luxury bags to long-term employees. His philosophy of never skimping on food, demonstrated by his generous use of sea urchin, showcases his unique dedication to his staff, rivaling that of large corporations.
Additionally, Yoo will share behind-the-scenes stories from 'Black and White Chef 2', including a tense moment during the final team round when the meat wasn't cooking properly, and how he miraculously managed to cover it.
'The Manager' airs on the 31st at 11:10 PM.
