'Imjjang TV' chef Im Seong-keun voluntarily revealed a history of drunk driving, causing great shock.

On the 18th, a video titled 'food and drinking' was released on Im Seong-keun's YouTube 'Imjjangtv'. That day Im Seong-keun presented eobokjaengban, a dish from his memories and a dish he would have made if he had advanced to the finals of Culinary Class Wars 2.

Im Seong-keun said, "Today this is the menu to be served in this. This plate is an eobokjaengban bowl. I'll try making eobokjaengban today," and cheerfully explained, "When buying beef brisket, include skirt brisket, and boil it with green onions, onions and peppers. Boil it for an hour and a half."

Im Seong-keun said, "The dishes I've shown are really full of delicious things. There are so many things more delicious than eobokjaengban. But when I started cooking as a child, it was a hungry time so it was hard, but the food never left my memory," and added with a wistful expression, "for me it is a nostalgic dish."

Im Seong-keun said, "You can put buckwheat noodles in the bowl like when making naengmyeon," "it's a stylish dish to eat when the winter wind is cold. You can also add a boiled egg. If you look now, these are the ingredients that go on naengmyeon. Pour the broth in the middle here," "the ratio for the basic soy dipping sauce is soy sauce 1, vinegar 1, sugar 0.5 spoon. If you add green onions and peppers to the all-purpose soy sauce it's perfect," and finished the dish. Im Seong-keun said, "I received a lot of love on 'Culinary Class Wars 2', and I thought people might be curious what my dish would be if I had reached the finals, so I made eobokjaengban."

After cooking, while sharing the food with the production staff, Im Seong-keun refused alcohol. The production staff naturally asked, "Chef, you drank a lot when you were young, right?" Im Seong-keun said, "The reason I drank a lot is waking up at 5 or 5:30, and because there was no city gas the briquette smell would make you hoarse. You know soju goes with the gomtang broth boiled all night. It's a drink after work," and added, "now I have been a bit careful with drinking for about five to six years."

Im Seong-keun candidly said, "I liked drinking so I made some mistakes." Over 10 years he was caught driving under the influence three times, faced criminal punishment and even had his license revoked, which led him to be careful with alcohol.

Im Seong-keun explained how he was caught, saying, "You know. When you drink you sleep in the car. I was sleeping in the car and got caught by the police and explained the situation. But they asked why a person who drank was sitting in the driver's seat with the engine on. Later I realized you have to turn the engine off and sit there."

So why did Im Seong-keun voluntarily reveal his drunk driving history? Im Seong-keun apologized, saying, "I don't want to hide myself. It's right to apologize to our subscribers. I'm not hiding it. I feel sorry for causing unnecessary concern to subscribers," and added, "suddenly receiving tremendous love became a burden. Living a busy and then difficult life, I liked drinking a lot, so I hope you will forgive me kindly. I'm grateful for the great love," and pledged, "I will live carefully so it won't be a problem."
