Celebrity Chef Jung Ho-young Welcomes Star Entrepreneur Yang Joon-hyuk as Newest Team Member on 'The Boss Has Donkey Ears'

Yang Joon-hyuk, a successful entrepreneur with an annual revenue of 3 billion KRW, joins Chef Jung Ho-young's restaurant as the newest team member.

In the 348th episode of KBS2's variety show 'The Boss Has Donkey Ears', Chef Jung Ho-young showcases his skills with an impromptu monkfish dissection show, highlighting his peak as a global star chef. Amidst this, Yang Joon-hyuk is seen taking on various roles from serving to dishwashing at Jung's Japanese restaurant, sparking curiosity about the background of his involvement.

Chef Jung introduces Yang as "today's newest employee," hiring him as a one-day intern. Despite Yang's impressive annual revenue, he is lured by the promise of a hearty bowl of udon. Confident in his culinary experience, Yang states, "I run a seafood restaurant, so I'm confident in serving."

Yang is initially surprised by the non-stop tasks of topping, serving, table cleaning, and dishwashing. However, he gradually takes control of the restaurant with his meticulous and charming approach. Despite his slow serving style, which prompts Chef Jung to comment, "Speed is crucial for udon," Yang wins over customers with his friendly demeanor.

Yang even tackles dishwashing for the first time, humorously remarking, "I'm washing dishes at someone else's restaurant," while diligently completing the task, much to Chef Jung's surprise. Ultimately, Chef Jung praises Yang's work ethic, saying, "He's slow but kind," causing laughter among hosts Jeon Hyun-moo and Park Myung-soo.

Additionally, the episode teases the much-anticipated 'Monkfish Dissection Show' by Chef Jung, dubbed the 'Black and White Chef' scene. Chef Jung introduces himself as the "Monkfish Predator" and impressively prepares a monkfish brought by Yang from Pohang, leaving both Yang and the guests in awe.

'The Boss Has Donkey Ears' airs every Sunday at 4:40 PM.
