Yano Shiho Impresses Jang Yoon-jung with Her Unique Korean Dishes on 'New Release, Pyeonstorang'

Yano Shiho, married to Choo Sung-hoon, treats Jang Yoon-jung to a Korean feast.

On May 1st at 8:30 PM, KBS 2TV's 'New Release, Pyeonstorang' (hereafter 'Pyeonstorang') will showcase the energetic day of the returning positive sister, Yano Shiho. After meeting singer Jang Yoon-jung through a past broadcast, Yano Shiho, who wanted to become close friends, invites her over to present her own simple Korean dishes. Even the well-known gourmet Jang Yoon-jung was reportedly astonished by Yano Shiho's easy Korean recipes, raising curiosity about what these dishes might be.

In the VCR revealed that day, Yano Shiho is seen excitedly bustling in the kitchen, saying, "A special guest is coming." The menu she chose for the guest was a Korean feast of Samgyetang and Japchae. Both dishes are relatively complex and time-consuming. As a Japanese, there was curiosity about whether Yano Shiho could successfully prepare these dishes, especially since she teased a "special recipe unknown to Koreans."

When Jang Yoon-jung arrived, Yano Shiho welcomed her with her signature high-pitched dolphin sound. Even the famously energetic Jang Yoon-jung seemed overwhelmed by Yano Shiho's extreme high tension, causing her to be visibly shocked. Kim Yong-bin, observing this, remarked, "I've known Jang Yoon-jung since her debut, but I've never seen her like this," drawing laughter.

However, this was just the beginning. Jang Yoon-jung's shock continued throughout the day, especially when she witnessed Yano Shiho completing Japchae in just 10 minutes. Jang Yoon-jung repeatedly expressed her disbelief, asking, "Does Japchae really turn out like this?" and "Why are you doing it that way?" providing amusement. Throughout the cooking process, Jang Yoon-jung watched with skepticism and curiosity. How did it taste? Yano Shiho's simple Korean feast will be revealed in the 'Pyeonstorang' broadcast.

Meanwhile, Yano Shiho and Jang Yoon-jung also engaged in various conversations about their lives as broadcasters, wives, and mothers. They candidly shared their honest feelings about their husbands, Choo Sung-hoon and Do Kyung-wan, and made bold statements about their marriages and parenting, reportedly causing a stir in the 'Pyeonstorang' studio.

The episode will air on Friday, May 1st, at 8:30 PM on KBS 2TV's 'New Release, Pyeonstorang'.
