Celebrity Chef Jang Sa-cheon Reveals Secrets Behind Her Culinary Success and Personal Life







On the 21st, the YouTube channel 'Not Annoying Attention Seeker Sister' released a video titled 'A Building in Your 20s? 'Genius of Business' Jang Sa-cheon's Luxury House in Hannam-dong First Revealed (Highest Sales, Praised by Baek Jong-won)'.
Jang Sa-cheon showcased her home where she lives alone. The modern and warm atmosphere with white-toned interiors caught the eye. Jang Sa-cheon also grows vegetables like basil and chives on her balcony.
She also revealed her library. Holding a cookbook, she said, "This is a recipe book from the wives of conglomerate families. It's not a book you can buy. A guest from the political and business circles gave it to me as a gift, saying 'It would be good to study this and cook'."
Jang Sa-cheon first revealed and cooked her Tongyeong Bibimbap recipe, which received high praise from Baek Jong-won during the first round of 'Black and White Chef'. The first round's mission was 'the menu you are most confident in'. Jang Sa-cheon explained, "I thought only I could do it. I went to Tongyeong, tasted it once, and upgraded the menu."
Lee Ji-hye asked, "How has it been since the broadcast? Have reservations increased?" Jang Sa-cheon proudly replied, "October reservations were fully booked in 8 seconds. There were 50,000 simultaneous connections. We increased the server for November reservations."
Lee Ji-hye inquired, "You must be very popular. Are you single? Have you ever been married?" Jang Sa-cheon humorously responded, "I'm single and not popular. It's been a long time since I dated. I'm in a relationship with vegetables." She also shared her ideal type, "A man who looks pretty when she smiles and enjoys the food I cook."
Jang Sa-cheon confessed, "Recently, I received a DM from a celebrity after they watched the show. It made my heart flutter after a long time." He hinted, "It's a singer." When Lee Ji-hye promised not to reveal the name and asked him to whisper it, Jang Sa-cheon did so. Lee Ji-hye commented, "That person is nice. I have a good impression of them."
Regarding her future goals, Jang Sa-cheon stated, "I think cooking itself is a dish that contains elements that evoke memories. I want to capture the sense of the season. I hope someone recalls memories, the temperature of that day, and happy emotions through my food." Lee Ji-hye remarked, "You're emotional and artistic," and asked, "This question might break the mood, but how much have you saved so far?" Jang Sa-cheon replied, "I have a small building."
