Actor Kyu Pil Ko is captivated by Kang Woo Kim's healthy take on Korean street food on the latest episode of 'New Release, Pyeonstorang.' Known for maintaining a steady weight of 75kg for 28 years, Kang Woo Kim's 'healthy street food' piques curiosity.

On the upcoming episode of KBS 2TV's 'New Release, Pyeonstorang,' airing on the 29th, Kang Woo Kim reveals his secrets to enjoying popular street foods like kimbap, tteokbokki, and ramen in a healthier way. Dubbed '47 SEXY' for his excellent self-care, 'Health Woo' Kang Woo Kim's extraordinary healthy street food recipes even loosened the reins on food enthusiast Kyu Pil Ko's appetite.

In the VCR segment, Kang Woo Kim declares a street food day for his two sons, saying, "The kids love street food."
