Key, the western food chef test “100 times more stressful than the college entrance exam”

'I Live Alone' SHINee's Key prepared thoroughly for the written exam to become a Western food chef, but made people laugh with his unexpected foolishness of not taking his ID card.

On MBC's 'I Live Alone', which aired on the 7th, Jeon Hyun-moo and Cocoon versus Kian84 and Song Min-ho's fashion battle, and Key challenging the written certification test were revealed.

Key said, “I studied the most after graduating from high school,” and took the written exam to become a Western food chef. He said, "I studied so hard after work that I wondered if I had ever been this enthusiastic recently. I think I was 100 times more nervous than the CSAT. I know everyone around me is taking the test, so I have to stick to it." Because I had prepared so hard, I was somewhat relaxed on the morning of the exam. He prepared and ate breakfast, studied online lectures at high playback speed, and did a final check by solving past exam questions.

Key ate the passing taffy and headed to the exam center. Height, who was leisurely taking selfies while traveling in a taxi, suddenly opened his eyes and hurriedly rummaged through his bag. I didn't bring my ID. It was an unacceptable mistake for Key, a 'Power J (planning) type' who was thoroughly prepared.

After urgently asking his manager for help, Key stamped his feet in frustration in front of the exam room. Key, who was on the verge of crying, blamed himself and said, "I didn't even bother to get my ID card when I needed to get my glasses." Fortunately, Key was able to take the test because the manager gave him his ID card 5 minutes before the check-in deadline.

The result was passing the written exam. Key made a bragging phone call to his mom, dad, Park Na-rae, Lee Chang-seop, and Taeyeon. Best friend Taeyeon acknowledged Key's passion, saying, "He lives hard." Key headed straight to the cooking school to find out how to prepare for the practical test.

Key purchased the cooking tools and ingredients needed to prepare for the practical test and returned home. He put on his cooking uniform and cooked the menu he learned at the academy. Although it was my first time, I was confused about the cooking order, but I completed the dish as I learned, drawing admiration from the Rainbow members. Key enjoyed a party to celebrate passing the written exam alone, with finished dishes and drinks.
