Even seasoned food show host Moon Se-yoon couldn't resist the allure of strawberries.
Tonight at 9 PM, MBC's 'Nation's Best' episode 2 will feature a thrilling strawberry variety showdown with Jinju's 'Geumsil', Nonsan's 'Vitaberry', and Hongseong's 'Goldberry' all competing for the top spot.
Jinju introduces its premium 'Geumsil Strawberry', challenging the competition. Tsuki, known for her love of 'strawberry milk', indulges in a variety of desserts made with Geumsil strawberries, including a strawberry cake with whipped cream, strawberry latte, and more. After her first bite, Tsuki is left speechless, expressing 'silent admiration'. Watching her, Moon Se-yoon admits, “It's my first time drooling over strawberries,” eliciting laughter from everyone.
In Hongseong, TWS members Shinyu and Youngjae take on the task of promoting 'Goldberry'. They visit a farm to participate in the harvest, experiencing the state and cultivation process of the strawberries firsthand. Their meticulous picking of each berry offers a different vibe from their stage performances. After the farm visit, they join the studio with announcer Kim Dae-ho for an impromptu 'Aegyo Challenge', lightening the atmosphere. Kim Dae-ho, after participating, comments, “This is a visual party,” adding to the humor.
Another highlight of this episode is the introduction of a blind taste test, a first for 'Nation's Best'. Participants wear blindfolds, relying solely on taste to evaluate the varieties. With no visual cues or brand influence, the results defy expectations. The voting, conducted over three rounds, remains tight, with tension building at each result announcement. Viewers are eager to see which variety will ultimately win.
Join Moon Se-yoon, Park Ha-sun, Kim Dae-ho, Professor Moon Jung-hoon, Chef Lee Won-il, Tsuki, TWS's Shinyu & Youngjae, and announcer Kim Min-ho for 'Nation's Best' episode 2, airing tonight at 9 PM.
