Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube Embark on a Culinary Adventure in Daegu with Kim Kang-woo

In the latest episode of 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 2', Jeon Hyun-moo reunites with 'brother-in-law' Kim Kang-woo, sparking curiosity about Kim's 15-year marriage and his thoughts on marital boredom. Jeon, while not in a rush to marry, expressed his ongoing hope for a future partner.

The 33rd episode, aired on October 13th, features Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) exploring Daegu's unique culinary offerings with their 'food friend' Kim Kang-woo. The trio indulged in Daegu's signature dishes, including the famous 'Daegu 10 Tastes', local Chinese-style yakisoba, and Chinese bibimbap, as well as Daegu's iconic makchang and jeolchang.

Returning to Daegu, Jeon Hyun-moo took Kwak Tube to the 'Daegu K Headquarters', where he worked two decades ago. During their visit, they were surprised by the appearance of Park Eun-jung, a former co-host, who humorously revealed Jeon's past broadcasting mishaps. Despite the embarrassment, Jeon inquired about local dining spots and even asked about former colleague Hong Joo-yeon, leading to a playful exchange.

Following Park's recommendation, the group headed to Bango-gil for a taste of traditional Korean raw fish salad. They chose a 57-year-old establishment, savoring the dish with flat dumplings and yukjeon. During the meal, Kim Kang-woo discussed his new YouTube venture, humorously referring to Kwak Tube as 'senior'. Jeon Hyun-moo shared his envy of Kim's successful ceremonial first pitches for the Lions, contrasting them with his own jinxed attempts.

After enjoying their meal, the trio moved to a Chinese restaurant in Daegu's Icheon-dong for a second round of dining. They relished in 'bumeok' sweet and sour pork, yakisoba, and Chinese bibimbap. Kim Kang-woo, known for his hearty appetite, was humorously compared to a devoted husband character from a drama. Discussing his 15-year marriage to Han Hye-jin's sister, Kim expressed gratitude for his wife's support, noting that marital boredom never had a chance to set in.

Jeon Hyun-moo, reflecting on his own desires for a partner, admitted that while he once had high standards, he now seeks a soulmate. Kwak Tube humorously suggested that viewers believe Jeon's standards are too high, to which Jeon responded that it's more about the heart than the eyes now. Kim Kang-woo advised against giving up, prompting Jeon to joke about becoming like actor Kim Kwang-kyu if he did.

After Kim Kang-woo's departure, Jeon and Kwak Tube headed to a local makchang restaurant, known for its rare cuts like jeolchang. They grilled the meats over charcoal, expressing delight at the unique flavors. Jeon lamented the absence of jeolchang in Seoul, highlighting the culinary treasures of Daegu.

The 'Daegu Food Trip' concluded with plans for the next adventure in Chungnam, exploring hidden culinary gems in Dangjin, Seosan, and Hongseong. The journey continues in the 34th episode of 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 2', airing on October 20th at 9:10 PM on MBN and Channel S.
