Today (23rd) at 7:50 p.m., TV CHOSUN's TV CHOSUN 'Sikgaek Heo Yeongman's baekban trip' (hereinafter 'baekban trip') will air, taking viewers to Tongyeong with actress Jang Young-nam. Jang Young-nam appears as a one-day special correspondent for 'baekban trip' and will report directly from the festival site in Tongyeong.
Jang Young-nam, who made a mark on the acting world with her powerful performances, has now reached her 30th year since debut and has established herself as a reliable actress. Even this proud three-character name is said to have a hidden story. When sons were scarce and the household had only three daughters, her maternal grandfather strongly wanted a grandson and gave her a name including the male character nam (男). Not only the local shaman but even the obstetrician said it would be a son, so Jang Young-nam was given that name. However, when she was born she was the youngest daughter, and to make matters worse, there was strong opposition to her pursuing acting, and she was often mistreated at home.
Meanwhile, Jang Young-nam reveals behind-the-scenes stories from the filming of the film 'Ode to My Father'. Crossing the freezing sea in midwinter carrying a baby on her back with nothing on, creating an evacuation scene that looked more real than reality, Jang Young-nam said she was five months pregnant at the time. Even her fellow actors who acted with her did not know that fact. Worried it might cause trouble, Jang Young-nam did not disclose her pregnancy at first. She reveals the story of how she anxiously gave birth to her son 'Un-sang'.
On the day, Jang Young-nam visits the Tongyeong fishing market festival and fully carries out her role as a one-day special correspondent for 'baekban trip'. She introduces in detail the seasonal oysters boasting overwhelming size and taste, as well as seasonal southern sea seafood such as eel and anchovies. While touring the festival site, she unexpectedly meets chefs Oh Se-deuk and Jang Ho-jun as surprise guests. Through a festival that combines fresh Tongyeong seafood and the chefs' dishes, she presents a fresh and fragrant winter Tongyeong table.
The Tongyeong episode of TV CHOSUN's TV CHOSUN 'Sikgaek Heo Yeongman's baekban trip', which set off with genre-defying scene-stealer actress Jang Young-nam, airs today (23rd) at 7:50 p.m.
