Actress Son Ye-jin certified "cheon-gyeopsal."
On the 28th Son Ye-jin posted on her social media, writing "I enjoyed cheon-gyeopsal," and released a video of grilling samgyeopsal. The rich meat juices and savory visuals caught attention, and the so-called "cheon-gyeopsal" was known to be the dish Lee Young-ja served to Hyunbin on the previous day's broadcast of the MBC variety show Omniscient Interfering View, drawing interest.
The "cheon-gyeopsal" revealed on the show is characterized by a thousand cuts made on the samgyeopsal to preserve the grain. In the scene where it was grilled on a pot lid with dried radish greens, whole garlic and freshly seasoned kimchi, Hyunbin repeatedly expressed admiration, and after tasting it he praised it, saying, "The ratio of fat to lean meat is good. The flavor from the fat is savory."
When Lee Young-ja asked, "There are seven pieces of meat; who wants them?", Hyunbin raised his hand without hesitation and took the samgyeopsal. Afterward, Hyunbin took the cheon-gyeopsal home, and Son Ye-jin, who tasted it, responded with social media confirmation, adding warmth.
On that day's Omniscient Interfering View, Lee Young-ja's carefully prepared winter seasonal spread was revealed, and Hyunbin's affectionate "devoted husband" side also became a topic. At the table laid out with tonic-like ingredients including Yanggu punchbowl dried radish greens from Gangwon Province, Yongdae-ri dried pollack, Taean gamtae, and seasonal patterned squid, Hyunbin continued to marvel at each dish. In particular, when cheon-gyeopsal and the rare ingredient "plump garlic" appeared, he naturally thought of his wife and took care of the items, bringing smiles to viewers.
Hyunbin said, "I'll take it home," and personally took the plump garlic and samgyeopsal, earning reactions of "truly a devoted husband." His small actions that put his wife first showed the unchanged affection after marriage.
The affection for Son Ye-jin continued in the ensuing talk. Hyunbin said, "The kimbap my wife packs using my grandmother's recipe is the most delicious in the world," openly showing his "wife-obsessed" side. Even amid the lavish feast of gourmet foods, he named his wife's cooking as the most memorable taste, making listeners swoon.
