"In 'The Antarctic Chef,' Im Soo-hyang made a surprise mention of her parents. "
The MBC variety show 'The Antarctic Chef' premiered on the 17th.
It summoned the members who were filmed in 2024. Im Soo-hyang said, "Serving food to those at the King Sejong Station is meaningful," adding, "I decided with difficulty because it could be an important experience in life, not just a program."
A scene of eating after training was shown. "The ingredients are scarce, almost all frozen, so vegetables are rare," Paik Jong-won said, surprising everyone. In fact, most products in the Antarctic were frozen. While pondering whether they could serve a warm meal, they heard that even seasonings could not be brought, and Paik Jong-won was at a loss.
Im Soo-hyang said, "Actually, I'm the daughter of a buffet restaurant," confessing that her parents once ran a buffet, and when she added, "I've tasted food a lot since I was a baby," Paik Jong-won said, "Im Soo-hyang probably took the most elite course."
Her parents ran a buffet in Busan, and Im Soo-hyang, who has tremendous credentials and has risen within the team as a data point for taste, was predicted to be the seasoning master responsible for the kitchen's flavors. Im Soo-hyang said, "I'll assist closely," and Paik Jong-won shouted, "Instead, it's gums—it's what I'm good at," as a cheer.
'The Antarctic Chef' is a program that documents the process of serving a warm meal to wintering members who live isolated in the harsh Antarctic environment out of a sense of duty.
