The upcoming episode 28 of 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3' (co-produced by MBN, Channel S, and SK Broadband), airing on the 24th, features Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) as they embark on the second part of their Seoul back alley tour, following viewer tips to explore the alleys behind Sogang University.
On this day, Jeon Hyun-moo declares, "Today is the viewer's plan," and explains, "A viewer tipped us off about their favorite spot of 30 years, claiming it offers a taste like no other." When a photo of a mysterious restaurant with no sign is revealed, Kwak Tube humorously comments, "Isn't this more like 'Sixth Sense' than 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan'?" The duo then sets off to explore the alleys behind Sogang University, where they encounter elementary school students and attempt a street interview. During this, Kwak Tube asks, "How old is your mom?" and when a student replies, "She was born in 1987," Jeon Hyun-moo, born in 1977, quickly ends the interview, causing laughter.
Shortly after, the duo discovers the viewer-recommended restaurant. Inside, Jeon Hyun-moo orders the mysterious menu item as instructed by the viewer, saying, "5,000 won for two servings, please." A dish with rice cakes, two eggs, and two fish cakes is served, but only scissors and a spoon are provided, leaving Jeon Hyun-moo puzzled, "This is really unique." They begin to eat the tteokbokki in the restaurant's unique style, and the owner comments, "It probably won't taste good. You can't find this kind of tteokbokki anywhere else," leaving Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube bewildered. Jeon Hyun-moo cautiously tastes the broth and remarks, "What is this taste? It's something I've never tasted before," with a look of bewilderment, yet concludes, "It's not tasty, but I feel like I'll keep coming back," sparking curiosity.
'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3' episode 28 airs on the 24th at 9:10 PM.
