The 'Walking Gourmet' declared a 'Walking Duo' system with Kwon Yul and Lee Jung Shin, following the sudden news of Yeon Woo-jin's exit right from the second travel destination.
The 'Walking Gourmet,' produced jointly by Channel S and SK Broadband, will air on April 4 at 9:20 p.m., featuring Fukuoka, Japan, as the backdrop for another unpredictable gastronomic journey. In Fukuoka, known as a 'city of gourmet' for its blue sea and diverse food options, the three will find themselves immersed in a tense atmosphere instead of laughter.
On the plane heading to Fukuoka, only Kwon Yul and Lee Jung Shin appear, raising questions from the start. In response, Kwon Yul shares shocking news, saying, "Yeon Woo-jin left because the filming in Florence was too tough." Then, Lee Jung Shin adds a bombshell remark, saying, "Now it's the 'Walking Three.'" Kwon Yul even mentions, "One of us may be out in the next travel destination," heightening the tension as he enters extreme survival mode.
However, the real twist was that the first among the three to step foot in Fukuoka was none other than Yeon Woo-jin. He greets the camera, saying, "This is Yeon Woo-jin's 'Walking Gourmet,'" and adds, "I'm the only one who survived. This program is a survival game," revealing his hidden ambition. Unaware of this fact, Kwon Yul and Lee Jung Shin had previously said, "It's much more comfortable without Woo-jin," only to end up meeting Yeon Woo-jin, causing a real moment of surprise.
Meanwhile, the three will take on the nearly impossible mission of finding 'real local restaurants without Koreans' in Fukuoka. Given that Fukuoka is considered the most visited travel destination by Koreans in the first half of 2025, they will inevitably encounter Korean tourists wherever they go. As reviews from Koreans flood in when they open the search bar, the three lament, saying, "Finding local restaurants in Fukuoka is nearly impossible." After various twists and turns, they manage to have their first meal with tonkotsu ramen, but the joy is short-lived as Kwon Yul's expression hardens while he holds his phone, leading him to utter a significant remark.
The chaotic journey of Kwon Yul, Yeon Woo-jin, and Lee Jung Shin in Fukuoka begins with a bitter start, as if the first button was fastened incorrectly.
