On Changmin's YouTube channel '새고_F5-덕밥집', a video titled 'Irene's Face is More Healing than Pocopia' was uploaded.
In the video, guest Irene mentioned 'No Leftovers Day' to Changmin. However, Changmin didn't understand the concept, leading Irene to humorously step back, feeling a generational gap.
Changmin, still puzzled, remarked, "We usually didn't leave leftovers." Irene explained, "It's not about the leftovers." Changmin then joked, "Kids from the '90s must have been picky eaters to come up with that," causing everyone to burst into laughter.
Irene is known among Red Velvet fans for not keeping up with trends. She asked Changmin if he knew the latest trends, to which Changmin replied, "Are you going to talk about 'Doojonku' again?" Irene responded, "That's old news." Changmin then asked, "Isn't 'Bomdong' outdated too?" showing his awareness of trends.
Irene challenged, "Do you know what's trending now?" Changmin appeared clueless, so Irene mentioned 'Butter Rice Cake'. Changmin, surprised, said, "I thought that was a dull trend." He then asked Irene, who is from Daegu, if she was surprised by the different food in Seoul.
Irene shared that she was surprised when she was given soy sauce instead of the usual vinegar sauce for pancakes in Seoul, shocking Changmin. He then asked, "Do you prefer your sweet and sour pork with sauce poured over or on the side?" Irene replied, "With soy sauce," surprising Changmin again.
A flustered Irene asked, "Isn't that how it's eaten?" The production team commented, "That's only in Gyeongsang-do." Irene asked, "Then what do you dip it in?" Changmin replied, "We dip it in the sweet and sour sauce." Irene humorously suggested, "Shouldn't you dip it in both the sauce and soy sauce?" When Changmin was taken aback, Irene joked, "I don't think we can cook together today," eliciting laughter.
