On MBC's variety show Omniscient Interfering View, Lee Young-ja's famed "Yumi Ga-maek" welcomes an extraordinary lineup of guests.
In episode 378, airing today (27th) at 11:05 p.m., Lee Young-ja—dubbed an "ingredient manager"—unveils an array of winter seasonal dishes she prepared with great care. Actors Hyunbin, Jung Woo-sung, Roh Jae-won, Park Yong-woo, and Kang Gil-woo visit the casual pub, instantly heating up the atmosphere. The actors express amazement at Lee's thoughtfully prepared seasonal spread and even try their hand at making fresh kimchi, revealing a refreshingly down-to-earth side rarely seen on screen.
Lee serves the group nourishing dishes such as siraegi tteokbokki made with dried radish greens from Yanggu's Punchbowl area in Gangwon Province, and hwangtae guk, a dried pollack soup using pollack from Yongdae-ri. She also teases a special "hidden" ingredient, saying she wanted to present something truly precious for her special guests. The reveal prompts the actors to rise from their seats in admiration. Hyunbin, in particular, jokingly remarks, "I want to take this home," carefully packing the seasonal ingredients and showcasing his affectionate, family-oriented side.
The actors' cooking skills also come into the spotlight. Jung Woo-sung and Hyunbin take on the challenge of making fresh kimchi themselves, surprising everyone with their natural culinary instincts. Their hands-on cooking, combined with candid and relaxed conversation, adds to the episode's entertainment value. As the mood peaks, Jung Woo-sung even pulls out a bottle of soju, while Lee Young-ja declares, "I don't want to go home," drawing laughter from everyone.
Hyunbin also speaks fondly of his wife Son Ye-jin, proudly praising her cooking skills and revealing his "devoted husband" side. He names kimbap as his favorite dish she makes and shares a family recipe passed down from Son Ye-jin's grandmother. Hyunbin's sweet, impromptu singing further heightens anticipation for the episode. Additionally, long-rumored past anecdotes involving MC Hong Hyun-hee—who has playfully claimed familiarity with Hyunbin by calling him "Taepyeong"—are finally revealed.
