Jeon Hyun-moo is saddened by the mention of his ex-girlfriend Han Hye-jin.
In MBN's 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan', which aired on the 8th, 'Busan people' Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) and Kim Gwang-gyu introduced 'Busan's first' milmyeon restaurant and a soft tofu stew restaurant in 'Gukje Market', respectively. In addition, for the first time in the 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan', he visited the Ishigari (lined flounder) raw fish restaurant on the 'Jeong Yong-jin List' and began verifying the restaurant.
Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube, who had previously started a Busan restaurant tour, headed to a 'nostalgic restaurant' recommended by 'food guest' Kim Gwang-gyu. At a soft tofu stew restaurant that day, Kim Gwang-gyu held up a spoon with excitement, took a bite, and exclaimed, “It tastes richer than before.” In particular, those who were impressed by the unique taste of soft tofu stew, which is popular among Japanese people, also held a talk about memories from that time. Gwang-gyu Kim revealed his story of working as a taxi driver in Busan, working as a sales representative for a large company, and enrolling in the Department of Theater and Film. He also shared an anecdote about being cast in the movie 'Friends' through director Kwak Kyeong-taek, whom he met as a professor at university.
Jeon Hyun-moo also laughed at Kim Gwang-gyu's story, recalling his days as a freshman announcer, and Kwak Tube formed a consensus by remembering the awkwardness he felt when he uploaded his first YouTube video. Then, Kim Gwang-gyu was taken aback when Kwak Tube praised him as “the legendary icon of hair loss,” and after a while, he took off his hat and revealed the state of his recently dyed hair. Jeon Hyun-moo, who saw this, devastated the scene by asking a quick question, “Did you get a (scalp) tattoo?”
Kim Gwang-gyu explained, “It’s because of the hair dye,” and then worried about Kwak Tub’s “M-shaped hair loss,” he said, “I started losing my hair when I was about your age,” making Kwak Tub dizzy. After eating, the three bought a vintage knit worth 3,000 won at Busan Gukje Market, put it on, and then headed straight to the Milmyeon restaurant recommended by Kwak Tube.
This restaurant, which Kwak Tub often visited while holding his father's hand as a child, boasted a long history as 'Busan's first milmyeon restaurant.' The first owner, who started the Milmyeon business in 1919, the second owner, who experienced the Heungnam evacuation incident, and the third owner, all held the same position for a whopping 70 years. The three people who were moved by the 'epic' of the Milmyeon restaurant finally tasted the historic Milmyeon and quickly emptied their bowls, giving a 'thumbs up' and saying, "Milmyeon of life!" Afterwards, we started searching for the next restaurant, and Kwak Tube brought out the ‘Jung Yong-jin List’ carefully selected by S Group Chairman Jeong Yong-jin. Jeon Hyun-moo said, “I came all the way to Busan, so I have to eat raw fish,” and then went to the ‘Ishigari’ (lined flounder) raw fish restaurant on ‘Jung Yong-jin’s list.’
Arriving at the nearby Haeundae Traditional Market, the three played a 'balloon popping' game at a street stall, betting on the cost of 'Ishigari raw fish', which costs '300,000 won per kg'. While everyone was proud of their 'shooting' skills, Kwak Tub lost in a fierce competition. Kwak Tube, shedding bloody tears, promised to eat 'Ishigari' sashimi flex, and after a while, the three arrived at the 'Jeong Yong-jin List' restaurant and received permission to film on the spot.
At this time, the restaurant staff expressed their pride in the restaurant, saying, “Lee Byung-hun, Yoona, and Park Na-rae have also visited.” Jeon Hyun-moo asked, “Who did Park Na-rae come with?” The employee answered, “She is a tall woman, and she is a model.” The tall female model was Jeon Hyun-moo's ex-girlfriend, Han Hye-jin. Jeon Hyun-moo, who was suddenly taken aback by this, said, “Ah~ Mr. Park Du-seon?” and then made a solemn expression, causing a salty laugh.
Finally, the ‘Ishigari’ course came out. The three people couldn't stop using their chopsticks, saying "Wow~" at the chewy texture that made even the bones chew. Kim Gwang-gyu, impressed by the taste of the heavenly world, showed off his friendship by saying, “Chairman Chung, I think you should meet him sometime,” and immediately logged on to social media and sent a DM to Chairman Chung. However, he sent a message omitting the most important subject of the DM content, 'Ishigari sashimi', and appealed for 'hyeontae'.
While people are wondering whether he will receive a reply from Chairman Chung, Kim Gwang-gyu also released a 'story' about a street food stall that is famous for being the venue for the 'Busan International Film Festival (BIFF)' after-party. However, in response to Jeon Hyun-moo’s pointed question, “What movie did you go to?” he responded, “I just went to have fun. I have never been invited to BIFF. “It’s just something I made with my own money,” he said, causing laughter.
