K-Bakery Show 'Bread of the World' Set to Premiere with Exciting Challenges

Lee Hye-sung, who ended her public relationship with Jeon Hyun-moo in 2022, has shared her thoughts on joining 'Bread of the World'.

Premiering on February 1st at 9:40 PM, MBN's 'Bread of the World' is the first-ever 'K-Bakery Survival' show in Korea, aiming to select the world's best pastry chefs and bakers. The show will feature 72 contestants from around the globe, including renowned masters from Korea, world-class patissiers, and innovative bakers with unique recipes, all competing in a massive global baking showdown.

In the first round, where the 72 contestants showcase their skills, a surprising rule allows the judges to refuse to evaluate a contestant if all masters agree. This unexpected twist creates tension, especially when a promising contestant, praised by peers with comments like "They'll make it" and "Well done," is denied evaluation, leaving everyone shocked. The anticipation builds around who will face the 'evaluation refusal' in the unpredictable first round of 'Bread of the World' and what ripple effects this incident will cause.

The 'declaration of war interview' featuring contestants Lee Hye-sung and Park Dul-sun has garnered attention. Both are stepping away from their celebrity status—Lee as a 10-year announcer and Park as a 29-year top model—to compete as bakers. Lee expressed her ambition, saying, "It would be an honor to make it into the top 10 and compete with the best," while Park shared her credentials, "I've been baking for 9 years and running a bakery for 1 year," raising expectations. Their focused expressions in full baker attire have captured attention.

The production team stated, "'Bread of the World' is already a hot topic and will demonstrate the great power of the K-Bakery battle," adding, "Expect the unexpected. This is the one program that will excite bread enthusiasts worldwide."

'Bread of the World' premieres on February 1st at 9:40 PM.
