Actor Choi Soo-jong prepares the 700th 'Korean's Table.'
The program KBS 1TV 'Korean's Table,' which has been with the public for 14 years and 3 months, celebrates its 700th episode with a special table set by new guide Choi Soo-jong.
In the special 700th episode, where Choi Soo-jong takes the first step of inheriting the path laid by Choi Bool-am, a warm meal symbolizing celebration and support for a new start will be shared along with special guests to reflect on the journey of 'Korean's Table' so far.
In related photos released, Choi Soo-jong prepares the table with care, diligently puffing rice in a cauldron. The expression of him wearing rubber gloves, sweating, yet not losing his relaxed smile captures the attention of viewers.
In front of an old country house's yard fireplace, Choi Soo-jong's action of lighting the fire conveys a commitment to continue the warmth of the meal that has been shared for many years.
Especially in this 700th special episode, guests who have a special connection with Choi Soo-jong will gather to reminisce about the 'meaning of the table.'
In the yard scented with spring, familiar faces gather to prepare seasonal ingredients and make food while sharing stories. Special guests who know and love 'Korean's Table' better than anyone will further enrich the atmosphere.
Ahead of his first grants on 'Korean's Table,' Choi Soo-jong said, "I feel a great sense of responsibility in taking on a program that represents Korea. There is a saying that 'children grow up watching their parents from behind,' and I intend to walk step by step following the path of the late teacher Choi Bool-am who walked ahead."
He added, "Like the journey that teacher Choi Bool-am has taken so far, I will reflect more and work harder to ensure that 'Korean's Table' can be with many people for a long time."
It will be possible to meet the 700th meal, signifying the new beginning of the journey that Choi Soo-jong will create, on the 10th (Thursday) at 7:40 p.m. through KBS 1TV 'Korean's Table.'
