She explained, "The writer has been with us for over five years, and we have many memories together. We never had a meal together, so I wanted to prepare a gift for this gathering." She humorously added, "I gathered everyone to make myself look smaller," causing laughter.

Hong Hyun-hee, along with former manager Jung Chul and Cheonttung, diligently prepared the Doojeonku in the kitchen. Hong, who previously made headlines for losing 20kg, revealed, "I ate two Doojeonku every day for a week," surprising everyone.

She added, "I've stopped eating Doojeonku now; it doesn't seem to suit me," but still tasted them while making them, bringing laughter. Her husband, Jay Written, also appeared and tasted the Doojeonku they made, commenting, "Honestly, it's delicious, but a bit dry," while continuing to eat.

Hong Hyun-hee then arrived at the farewell party with the carefully made Doojeonku cake. But that wasn't all she prepared. She handed out mysterious envelopes to each member.

"Let's continue to eat well and live well together," she said, encouraging the members to share updates if they had anything to promote.

Hong Hyun-hee then pulled out several envelopes, and Shopttung exclaimed, "Is this a hidden camera?" showing surprise. He added, "It might sound cliché, but the message is more valuable than money," expressing gratitude. Cheonttung also said, "I hope this gets aired. Handwritten letters are rare these days," expressing thanks.

The letters Hong Hyun-hee handed out were filled with heartfelt messages. She shared, "At the Entertainment Awards, MBC gives medals. I've received several awards thanks to 'The Manager', but it was possible because of all of you. It's great to have people to share these moments with," expressing her sincerity, to which the members responded with applause.

Meanwhile, Hong Hyun-hee's husband, interior designer and broadcaster Jay Written, recently clarified that a product he launched is not a diet supplement or medication, drawing attention.

Hong Hyun-hee recently made headlines for losing over 10kg, and she explained, "I focused on managing my blood sugar and adjusting my eating habits." However, Jay Written faced criticism for launching a product seemingly tied to Hong Hyun-hee's diet, with some accusing it of being a marketing ploy.

On the 13th, Jay Written clarified on his social media, "This is not a health supplement or medication, but a regular food product. It's a convenient way to consume vinegar, oil, and vegetables that Hong Hyun-hee consistently consumed while regaining healthy eating habits, ensuring safety and quality."
