On the 26th, MBC announced that the pop-up event 'Treasure Gourmet Festival' for the new variety show 'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2', set to take place in Ganghwa Island on the 30th, has sold out.
'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2' is set to capture the charm and value of Ganghwa Island, based on the culinary know-how learned from the hidden culinary artisans in the village, as Lee Jang-woo directly resides in Ganghwa Island and shares daily life with the villagers. It adds meaning as a local variety show that highlights the people, culture, and food of the region, rather than being just a simple food variety show.
In particular, a recent short video featuring Lee Jang-woo and Kani released on the 'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2' social media has garnered online buzz with a new combination never seen before and fantastic chemistry. The "Lee Jang-woo-style meal" event held at the MBC cafeteria was also successfully completed with a positive response from employees. The combination of fried eggs with perilla oil and jjajangmyeon made by Lee Jang-woo gained explosive popularity on-site, raising expectations for the broadcast.
'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2', which has been generating buzz with various content releases before the broadcast, is expected to provide a special opportunity for prospective viewers in response to the soaring anticipation. The upcoming 'Treasure Gourmet Festival' pop-up is a special occasion where actor Lee Jang-woo will first showcase dishes made using recipes learned directly from the hidden culinary masters of Ganghwa Island, along with seasonal ingredients from Ganghwa. Regardless of age or gender, many applicants curious about Lee Jang-woo's culinary skills flocked to the pop-up, which reportedly filled all seats and concluded successfully.
Lee Jang-woo announced his marriage to Jo Hye-won, with whom he is publicly dating, in November.

Meanwhile, he is demonstrating a successful solo endeavor once again through the second season of 'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo' that bears his name. The activities of 'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2' are generating even more expectations.
