Yoo Min-sang Declares 'Delivery Gukbap is Not Real Gukbap' on Upcoming ComedyTV Show

Yoo Min-sang makes a bold statement, declaring that "delivery gukbap is not real gukbap."

On the upcoming episode of ComedyTV's variety show 'Am I a Big Eater?' (hereafter 'Big Eater'), airing on the 15th, Kim Min-kyung visits a large bakery and Italian restaurant with a botanical garden theme in Pocheon.

The restaurant's menu surprises with its generous offerings, featuring dishes like perilla oil pasta, seafood rose tteokbokki, and pandan leaf cream latte. The pandan leaf, known as the 'vanilla of Southeast Asia,' is highlighted as a flavor that appeals to adult palates.

Kim Min-kyung then takes on the challenge of an open run for wood-fired chicken in Yangju. The dish, limited to weekdays and weekends, includes chicken smoked for 40 minutes over oak wood and chicken stew. The addition of cheese on the golden-brown chicken enhances the winter dining atmosphere. The journey continues to the lamb skewer alley in Konkuk University, where she explores a Chinese-style pork trotter rice bowl.

Yoo Min-sang encounters a feast of ribs in Yangsan, featuring freshly cooked rice, galbitang, and spicy braised ribs. During the meal, he shares his thoughts on gukbap, stating, "Delivery gukbap is not real gukbap! You have to eat gukbap at the restaurant."

In a college town-inspired setting in Jinju, gravlax salmon and yukhoe cones are introduced. Yoo Min-sang reacts to the unusual combination of raw beef on a cracker cone, exclaiming, "Meat on a cracker?" and humorously dubbing it "the Heungseon Daewongun of the culinary world."

The culinary journey across the nation, where each participant completes their table with their choices, will be revealed on 'Big Eater,' airing at 10 AM.
