Comedian Jung Joon-ha reported that he has become a 'big player in the restaurant industry.'
On the 16th, the KBS2 program 'Boss's Ears Are Donkeys' depicted Lee Soon-sil seeking advice from Jung Joon-ha to open a restaurant in Gangnam.
On that day, Lee Soon-sil revealed plans to open a restaurant in Gangnam, stating, "There is a big player in the center of Gangnam. There is a bigger player than me. In the restaurant industry. This big player in the restaurant industry has multiple restaurants in Gangnam."
Later, the person he met was Jung Joon-ha, who has 28 years of experience in the restaurant industry. Kim Sook remarked, "He is indeed a big player. He runs several businesses near Gangnam Station," and Jeon Hyun-moo testified, "The fish restaurant is doing exceptionally well."
In fact, Jung Joon-ha is currently operating three restaurants in Gangnam. Upon meeting Jung Joon-ha, Lee Soon-sil expressed, "He is tall and has a nice voice. He has a good build. He is my ideal type." Kim Sook asked, "If Park Myung-soo and Jung Joon-ha were in North Korea, who would they flock to?" Lee Soon-sil replied, "Jung Joon-ha. Someone like him wouldn’t even look at Park Myung-soo," criticizing Park Myung-soo.
Lee Soon-sil asked Jung Joon-ha, "I am a fan of Infinite Challenge. I only watch the legendary Jung Joon-ha," and inquired, "Aren't you filming Infinite Challenge? Did it fail?" Jung Joon-ha jokingly replied, "It’s been a long time since I filmed. It ended because of Park Myung-soo." Hearing this, Lee Soon-sil commented, "I knew that. Aren't we going to fail because of Park Myung-soo at Sadang-gwi? We need to take him down. We need to pin his mouth with a laundry clip and sew it shut with a sewing needle. We have to stitch it with a needle and then apply glue. We need to apply varnish and do the wallpaper!" making everyone laugh.
He said, "Jung Joon-ha must come here (to Sadang-gwi)," and Park Myung-soo emphasized, "No matter how much I like it, I cannot sit here. There is a right fee."
Jung Joon-ha stated, "Since you've come to our establishment, I'll treat you to some food here," adding, "I have been in the restaurant industry for 28 years now. People don't know much about it." Park Myung-soo mentioned, "Our fish restaurant makes 400 million won in revenue," and Jung Joon-ha recounted, "When the IMF hit, I set up a street stall. I spent 20 million won on the deposit and 18.5 million won on the interior, with a monthly rent of 570,000 won. Everyone around me tried to discourage me, asking why I would start during such a difficult economic time, but I had a feeling that it would do well if I did it."
Lee Soon-sil asked, "How is it doing business in Gangnam?" Jung Joon-ha responded, "The commercial district is decent. The demographic is diverse, with many students. There are a lot of plastic surgery clinics and various hospitals, and there are buses that run late into the night nearby," but he cautioned Lee Soon-sil, who wants to start a restaurant, saying, "It’s not easy these days in the restaurant industry. This is a year when you have to pack your bags and close shop. I am advising anyone who is trying to enter the restaurant business right now to reconsider."
Especially, Lee Soon-sil boasted, "I can't sell dumplings because they can't be frozen. My monthly revenue is 2.3 billion won. The revenue for January was 2.3 billion won," to which Jung Joon-ha replied, "Our fish restaurant is doing incredibly well as well." When Lee Soon-sil asked, "How much does it make?" Jung Joon-ha revealed, "The fish restaurant sells several hundred million won per month," surprising everyone. Hearing this, Lee Soon-sil said, "I think I should do it right in Gangnam. Right next to Jung Joon-ha. I will have to suck his blood," which added to the laughter.
