In 'Kongkongpangpang,' Lee Kwang-soo received unexpected bad news. He expressed frustration and anger to the production team, saying, "Are you seriously trying this?"
On the 7th broadcast, the tvN variety show 'Kong simeun de kong naseo useum pang haengbok pang overseas exploration' (hereafter 'Kongkongpangpang') episode 4 continued the overseas mukbang exploration in Mexico of KKPP Food CEO Lee Kwang-soo, auditor Kim Woo-bin, and Deputy Minister Doh Kyung Soo.
That day, the three discovered while checking flights to Cancún that ticket prices varied greatly depending on the departure time. The 9 a.m. flight cost 500,000 won per person, while flights departing between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. were 240,000 won per person, a difference of nearly 300,000 won.
Because choosing a later flight would reduce their time on site, the three were in a dilemma. Kim Woo-bin suggested, "It would be better to make a deal with headquarters right here," and Lee Kwang-soo said, "If we take the 5 p.m. flight, we arrive in Cancún at 8 p.m. Wouldn't it be better for all of us to go early?" and tried to negotiate with producer Na Young-seok, saying, "Do we have to bear 100% of that price difference? Let's be a bit flexible."
When producer Na replied, "We can go at 5," Lee Kwang-soo vented, "Are you seriously trying this? We're bringing this up because our situation isn't good. Is this over a few ten thousand won?" but they ultimately failed to reach an agreement.
Later, back at their accommodation trying to make a reservation, the three heard shocking bad news. According to the production team's confirmation with the airline, "The quoted price does not include checked baggage. If you add it, it becomes 1,702,500 won." Faced with a price that was 200,000 won higher than what they had found at the restaurant, Lee Kwang-soo complained, "At this rate we can't go to Cancún." Under financial pressure, Doh Kyung Soo looked for and booked the cheapest lodging.
Meanwhile, the tvN variety show 'Kong simeun de kong naseo useum pang haengbok pang overseas exploration' (hereafter 'Kongkongpangpang') is a program depicting the 100% pure Mexico free trip of close friends Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Woo-bin, and Doh Kyung Soo, and airs every Friday at 8:40 p.m.
