"Manitto Club" aired Park Myung Soo complaining about the tough shoot while mentioning Infinite Challenge.
On the evening of the 15th, the MBC entertainment program "Manitto Club" entered a secret Manitto mission to open a cafeteria for firefighters with actor Go Youn-jung, Kim Do-hoon, Jung Haein, broadcaster Park Myung Soo, Hong Jin Kyung and chef Yoon Nam-no.
Their mission was to open a late-night cafeteria for firefighters who burn with a sense of duty to save citizens in fires and emergencies. A cafeteria was created by "Manitto Club" for firefighters who often cannot properly eat a single meal because of dispatch alerts, so they can come back and eat fresh food anytime.
To this end, Yoon Nam-no took charge as executive chef and led the operation. Korean cuisine master Hong Jin Kyung and experienced small-business owner Park Myung Soo assisted, while the eager young blood Jung Haein, Kim Do-hoon and Go Youn-jung supported them.
The menu included health-boosting Hae-shin kalguksu for firefighters who consider soup dishes a luxury, abalone tteokgalbi, and duzzonshu. For the hand-cut kalguksu, they boiled chicken and shredded the meat along the grain, boiled and cut octopus, and still had a long way to go with garnishing red chili and various vegetables, preparing abalone and mixing tteokgalbi and duzzonshu dough.
Meanwhile, while kneading the kalguksu dough, Park Myung Soo sighed with a lament and said, "It's hard. It's so hard. It's harder than during 'Infinite Challenge'," lamenting. Hong Jin Kyung, who succeeded in food businesses such as kimchi and dumplings, empathized with the hardships of restaurant small-business owners, saying, "The people who make and sell this are no joke."
Park Myung Soo chimed in, "They really make life hard for small-business owners." He also sharply urged the young blood Jung Haein and Kim Do-hoon. He said, "Put more strength into it! Push harder! You have to roll it evenly," urging them so Jung Haein and Kim Do-hoon could exert arm strength while rolling hand-cut kalguksu dough and pounding tteokgalbi.
Meeting those expectations, Kim Do-hoon and Jung Haein worked tirelessly, and Hong Jin Kyung, Park Myung Soo and Go Youn-jung also continued making food without rest. As a result, they secured enough relaxed working time to even eat staff meals. Yoon Nam-no responded, "Honestly, I was very worried. I couldn't sleep since the day before. But they did better than I thought. I especially thought (Park Myung Soo) hyung would have many complaints, but he helped well."
However, only the preliminary preparation was finished and full-fledged late-night cafeteria operation remained. To hide the identities of the Manittos, the cafeteria at the firefighter control center was remodeled into a late-night cafeteria that covered all the windows except the serving hatch. The return window at the exit was changed from "Return" to "SAFE RETURN" to reflect "Manitto Club"'s wish that they return safely from accident scenes, welcoming the secret Manittos.
Just before the start of full operation, two-serving preparation was carried out to match the "four minutes" requested by Yoon Nam-no. But the tteokgalbi was the key. Even after the initial grilling, it was not easy to cook it thoroughly to the center. In a situation where it could be undercooked or easily burnt, Jung Haein showed reluctance.
Nevertheless, the curtain rose on the late-night cafeteria. Moreover, they promised that even if firefighters left food behind to respond to a call, they would make fresh food again if they returned. Anticipation rose over how the secret Manittos of "Manitto Club"'s late-night cafeteria would unfold. <
