It is different from existing restaurant management entertainment shows. There is clearly a differentiation.
Channel A ‘Trust me and try it, Urban Raw Fish Restaurant’ (hereinafter referred to as ‘Urban Raw Fish Restaurant’) held an online press conference at 2pm on the 23rd. PD Lee Deok-hwa, Lee Gyeong-gyu, Lee Soo-geun, Lee Tae-gon, Kim Jun-hyun, Yoon Se-ah, and Koo Jang-hyeon attended the scene.
'Urban Raw Fish Restaurant' is an entertainment program that depicts the ups and downs of the members of the 'Urban Fishermen' who are veterans of fishing but are new to running a restaurant.

Producer Koo Jang-hyeon said, "I run a raw fish restaurant. Although I am a veteran in fishing, I am a novice in the business. It is a story of running a raw fish restaurant with many bumps and bumps. During the first season of 'Urban Fisherman', I ran a food stall with the concept of an urban pocha. At that time, senior Gyeong-gyu made money by running a raw fish restaurant. He explained the intention of the plan, saying, “I told you to earn money to pay for the bait. From then on, the program planning started. Unintentionally, it took about 6 years. It is a very long-term project.”
Each member performs his/her assigned role. Lee Deok-hwa, who first stepped forward as general manager, said, "I'm the general manager, but I don't do much. I'm working hard at cleaning. I'm not good at cooking, so I was only cleaning fish during 'Urban Fisherman', but when I opened a raw fish restaurant, I had nothing more to do." He added, "Thanks to support like Yeol-hwa. “We opened the restaurant, but the people who ate there were raving about it. We are determined not to cause any inconvenience to each and every customer. Please just trust that,” he said.

Lee Gyeong-gyu, who is in charge of the grilling chef, said, "Many domestic broadcasting stations say 'yes' to opening a restaurant. Most of those restaurants buy the goods. They receive it from a company. That's not the case with us. We catch it. We sell today what we caught yesterday. Where is a restaurant like this? If you fall while trying, it goes straight to the sea. You catch it and eat it. It's a huge difference. If it weren't for us, this 'urban raw fish restaurant' couldn't be done. Other stores couldn't open. Because we can't catch it. There's no restaurant like the city raw fish restaurant. . If you want to discriminate and imitate, you can't do it. Don't even try to imitate it. People who watch the broadcast will be satisfied. Honestly, if our cuisine is going to be a business, it will be a truly delicious restaurant," he said confidently.
Lee Tae-gon said, “I’m paying a lot of attention because the main dish is raw fish. Caught and kept fresh. “If it’s not fresh, we send it straight to the soup,” he said confidently. Kim Jun-hyeon, the person in charge of the soup, explained that the fish that went into the soup was also fresh, making people sweat and laugh.

Lee Soo-geun, who is in charge of the hall manager, pointed out, "We have done a lot of restaurant-related programs. This time, it is innovation. We use the best ingredients that no one has tried before. There is meaning in having many fans come and communicate."
Yoon Se-ah of Hongil Branch said, "I applied because they were looking for a hall server. I thought I could do well because I had a lot of part-time work experience as a young person, but when I came here, I got to have a lot of new experiences. Please check it out on the broadcast." said.

Producer Koo said, “Other shows cook and then sell, but we do everything from primary production to cooking and serving.” He added, “Some days, there may be no raw fish in the raw fish restaurant. There are problems like that, but we are filming with the goal of opening.” “As the target fish species change, the cuisine changes. You will be able to see a variety of dishes every time,” he said, raising expectations for the ‘urban raw fish restaurant.’
It will be broadcast for the first time at 10:30 pm on this day.
