S.E.S. Star Shoo Returns to YouTube with Spring Bibimbap Mukbang

Shoo, former member of the iconic K-pop group S.E.S., has shared an update on her life.

On the 8th, the YouTube channel 'Human That's Shoo' released a video titled 'Spring Has Come to My Mouth! Eating Spring Bibimbap (feat. Sold-Out Spring Greens)'.

In the video, Shoo reunited with her YouTube production team after three months, saying, "It feels like it's been a while since I greeted everyone last year. I've been busy with many business trips and hectic schedules," and added, "I'm sorry for not uploading on YouTube often. In 2026, I plan to focus and work hard again."

When the production team mentioned, "Many comments are asking for a mukbang from Shoo," she candidly admitted, "I'm not very good at mukbangs, so I'm worried I might not express it well, but I can definitely enjoy the food." She also humorously added, "Lately, I've been thinking it would be nice to grow a bit taller, so I've been drinking milk. They say milk is good for preventing osteoporosis, so that's another reason I'm drinking it."

Shoo took on the challenge of making bibimbap using spring greens, a seasonal ingredient. She explained, "Spring greens bibimbap is trending these days, so I went to the market, but they were all sold out. I visited three places yesterday, but there was none. However, on the day of filming, I found just one left at the market and bought it immediately."

Shoo declared, "Today's concept is diet spring greens bibimbap," and prepared a variety of ingredients. She revealed her unique recipe, which includes natto and avocado for protein and nutrition. She explained, "Natto is rich in protein and good for gut health," and "Avocado is full of healthy fats that help maintain satiety for a long time."

The bibimbap was completed with multigrain rice, spring greens, natto, avocado, fried egg, seaweed flakes, and perilla oil. Shoo laughed, "This seems like a diet plan that personal trainers would love." After tasting the completed bibimbap, the production team praised the sauce, saying, "The sauce is really delicious." Shoo also expressed her satisfaction, saying, "It's really tasty. It's chewy and gives off a spring vibe."

Meanwhile, Shoo recently revealed that she is currently separated from her husband, Lim Hyo-sung, following a marital dispute and has been out of contact. Lim Hyo-sung had previously paid off Shoo's debt of 280 million won after she was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended for two years, for habitual gambling involving 700 million won.
