Lee Chan-won reacts violently to Taiwanese night market shrimp fishing

Singer Lee Chan-won reacted strongly to shrimp fishing at Taiwan's Shilin Night Market.

In JTBC's 'Talk Partner 25 Hours' broadcast on the 8th, a LAN trip to Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, a country where ancient civilizations are alive and breathing, and market tours in Thailand and Taiwan were depicted.

On this day, in the 'TalkPaone World Exploration Life' corner, I was able to feel the charm of Mexico City, where the present and the past coexist. Mexico's TALK Pawon begins with the Zocalo Square, where you can see Aztec traditional dances and magic to ward off bad luck, the Metropolitana Cathedral with its black Jesus statue, and the Art Palace where the works of muralist Diego Rivera are on display. introduced.

In Coyoacan, famous as Frida Kahlo's neighborhood, we visited the Coyoacan Market, loved by locals and tourists, and doubled the interest with a lively local market tour ranging from a variety of handicrafts to food. Next, at Templo Mayor, the altar used for human sacrifices attracted attention, and at the Vasconcelos Library, bookshelves suspended in the air gave the feeling of being in a four-dimensional space.

In addition, I was able to feel the mysterious atmosphere of Teotihuacan, the ‘City of the Gods’ with various pyramids and temples. Lastly, Mexico's Tokpawon ended the trip with a meal of traditional Mexican cuisine, including chicharrón, fried seasoned pork fat, aracera, and termite egg tacos, at a volcanic cave restaurant that recycled indigenous people's food storage.

I visited the markets of Thailand and Taiwan through the ‘TalkPawon Direct Purchase’ section. Thailand's Tok Pawon took a boat and shared the unique scenery of Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, the largest floating market in Thailand. In particular, my mouth was watering as I tasted a variety of cheap and diverse floating market foods, including rice noodles, northeastern sausage Cykhrug Isan, and coconut ice cream Itim Kati. Afterwards, the rare sight of Maeklong Market, with a train passing through a narrow market alley, caught my eye.

Next, we explored Taiwan's night markets. While MC Lee Chan-won, who has been to Taiwan before, showed special affection from the beginning of the Taiwanese video, Taiwanese Talk Pa-won held a mukbang of Ji-pai, Taiwanese cheese potatoes, and sugar mango at Shilin Night Market. Later, when shrimp fishing was introduced, Lee Chan-won was very happy and said, "That's right! That's where I went."

In addition, Taiwan's Tokpawon added to the fun of endless eating, including trying fried stinky tofu at Raohe Street Night Market and Tangyuan shaved ice with hot rice cakes on cold ice. We ended our informative night market tour in Jiufen, which has the most beautiful night view in Taiwan.
