Korea's 16th master chef and star chef Ahn Yu-seong, who made a strong impression on the public as the Honam representative on the popular cooking survival show "Culinary Class Wars," appears on Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire.
On Wednesday the 14th at 9:55 p.m., EBS's Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire will unfold the dramatic life story of master chef Ahn Yu-seong, a man who changed his life with a single taste and rose to land-rich status owning 1,700 pyeong. From the days he came to Seoul penniless, sleeping in a shrimp-sack while earning a monthly wage of 130,000 won at a small raw fish restaurant, to serving as head chef at a top Gwangju hotel and establishing himself as one of Korea's representative chefs, a tale of tears and determined success will reach viewers.
In particular, this episode draws attention when Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won, who traveled all the way to Gwangju, are surprised by a gift Ahn Yu-seong prepared for them. The item is a heavyweight 150kg tuna valued at as much as 10 million won. Along with the dazzling tuna dismantling show performed by the master's hands and the appearance of rare sashimi not easily tasted, Seo Jang-hoon reacted truthfully, saying "I've eaten a lot from craftsmen famous in Japan, but this is incomparable." In addition, Ahn Yu-seong consecutively showcases his self-developed signature dish "namdo sushi," eliciting admiration. Eventually Seo Jang-hoon even applauded and confessed his candid wish, saying "I understand why you bought so much land. If you open a branch near my house, I would visit often...," turning the set into a sea of laughter.
Also, attention is focused on the planned unveiling of the 1,700-pyeong Gwangju "Ahn Yu-seong master street." Seo Jang-hoon was astonished when told that the land alone amounts to as much as 34 billion won. As the full Ahn Yu-seong street tour began, Ahn Yu-seong overwhelmed the scene with a weighty remark: "You can't pass through this area without stepping on my land." But there was a special reason hidden behind Ahn Yu-seong's extensive land purchases. He revealed his true feelings, saying, "I'm buying land greedily for my final dream." What exactly is the master's final dream, and the real story behind it can be seen on EBS's Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire on Wednesday, Jan. 14 at 9:55 p.m.
