Singer Kwon Eun-bi was recognized for her skills by chefs at the country's top five-star hotels.
On the afternoon broadcast of KBS 2TV 'Boss, Your Ears Are Donkey Ears' on the 5th, Lee Sun-sil, Chef Jung Ho-young and Executive Director Kim Song-gi appeared and revealed the boss's daily life.
First, Lee Sun-shin ate raw eggs to manage her voice, and Director Jang said, "Just two more and you'll be fine." The reason Lee Sun-sil suddenly ate raw eggs was to appear on 'National Singing Contest'.
At that time, singer Hyun-suk appeared to help Lee Sun-sil, and Hyun-suk revealed their friendship, saying, "It feels like it's been 10 years since I last saw you." He said, "Every time I see you on TV you live your life to the fullest, it's so admirable. You succeeded," and Lee Sun-sil expressed a thirst, saying, "I failed at only one success. Singing."
Hyun-suk advised, "You can't sing what others sing. Song choice is important. You have to do what others don't to captivate the audience," and Lee Sun-sil said she picked Hyun-suk's "Dancing Tambourine" and appeared wearing a wig. Hyun-suk said, "I wrote the lyrics for 'Dancing Tambourine.' Wouldn't you be nervous in front of the original artist?" and Lee Sun-sil vowed, "I'll show the Buk Hyun-suk." However, as soon as the song started, Hyun-suk's expression turned sharply sour at the fast tempo, and Hyun-suk said, "No matter what, you have to keep the beat. Why are you rushing off?"
Hyun-suk complained to the production team, "I thought we came to the wrong place. The basics are the beat, but I was so embarrassed because she couldn't keep the beat," and Lee Sun-sil sang "Modern Woman, Modern Man" as another song. Hyun-suk showed a smile at the much improved singing. Hyun-suk taught Lee Sun-sil everything from how to ride the rhythm to how to sing deliciously, and Lee Sun-sil sang much more relaxed than before. Hyun-suk applauded the clearly improved singing and was pleased, and Director Jang also praised her, saying, "She did exactly what she learned from the teacher."
Hyun-suk emphasized confidence, rhythm and lyric delivery, and with that advice Lee Sun-sil headed to the 'National Singing Contest' preliminary. The first preliminary is sung a cappella, and if she passes that, the second preliminary is held with accompaniment. If she passes the second preliminary, she can appear on the main broadcast.
Finally, Lee Sun-sil went up on stage and greeted, "I am Lee Sun-sil, who defected to participate in 'National Singing Contest'," and then began the performance in earnest. The performance started confidently but a lyric mistake occurred, and a judge shouted, "Make sure the lyrics are correct!" Lee Sun-sil's result from the first preliminary of 'National Singing Contest' will be revealed next week.
Next, Park Myung Soo visited a hotel in Myeong-dong, Seoul, said to be the best hotel, and at that time Kwon Eun-bi was playing the piano placed in the lobby. Kwon Eun-bi is participating as a special intern on 'Walking to the boss's house.'
Park Myung Soo boasted, "It's awkward for me to say this, but idols send me love calls. For now, SEVENTEEN's Vernon, Boo Seung-kwan, GD and Go Youn-jung are all close to me." The MCs listening asked, "Do you know that person (Go Youn-jung) is also in Park's line?" and Park Myung Soo laughed, "I don't. I'll let you know next month."
The moment Park Myung Soo saw Kwon Eun-bi he opened with, "Word is going around that you bought a building," and Kwon Eun-bi said, "Come visit." Park Myung Soo asked, "Aren't you running a dessert cafe?" and Kwon Eun-bi showed enthusiasm, saying, "I'm also making something, so I think today's help will be very useful."
The boss who appeared then was Executive Director Kim Song-gi. With 45 years of cooking experience, he oversees all restaurants at Lotte Hotel and has more than 600 staff under him. Kim said, "I manage fine dining, Korean, Western, Chinese, Japanese, and also operate and manage the buffet, banquet halls and bakery. I was selected as the 11th master of Korea. I also successfully carried out the Gyeongju APEC event." Chef Jung Ji-seon acknowledged, "You can just think of him as the top. The top of chefs."
Executive Director Kim Song-gi said of his role, "Standardization of taste is important. And it's about managing promotions and personnel, acting as the headquarters," and about his career he said, "I stayed here continuously. I joined as the youngest and served the longest to become an executive director. I have been working for 45 years."
After tasting the strawberry buffet dishes, Park Myung Soo exclaimed, "It's fresh. These are top-quality strawberries," and Kwon Eun-bi reviewed, "They're so soft and delicious it's maddening. The strawberries seem really fresh. And when there's a lot of whipped cream it can feel greasy, but I didn't feel any greasiness at all."
When asked what efforts he makes for ideas, Executive Director Kim said, "For parts like the bakery I have to work every day, 12 months a year. I see a lot of those things on the subway," and Park Myung Soo asked, "As an executive director doesn't the company provide a car? Do you ride the subway?" Kim explained, "They do. But if I drive here the traffic is too bad."
When told to move near the hotel, Kim said, "I don't have the money. I'm really jealous if Eun-bi bought a building," and Park Myung Soo and Kwon Eun-bi joked and provoked laughter. Watching this, Chef Jung Ji-seon said, "I've done Chinese cuisine for 20 years. That person manages various fields overall, so he's an incredible person," showing surprise at the three's banter.
The three moved to the hotel kitchen to watch the process of creating the strawberry buffet menu firsthand and even experienced it themselves. Seeing Kwon Eun-bi, Executive Director Kim Song-gi praised her, saying, "It's her first time, but at this level she deserves to join our hotel."
The next boss to appear was Chef Jung Ho-young, who ranked in the TOP 4 of 'Culinary Class Wars 2'. Chef Jung Ho-young moved quickly to manage the busy establishment and assigned duties to the staff. Calling all staff together, Chef Jung said, "Today we have one youngest member special guest," and the person who appeared then was Yang Joon-hyuk.
Yang Joon-hyuk, who appeared with a mysterious box, had brought monkfish from Pohang, and Jung Ho-young marveled, "It's hard to find fish this big." Jung Ho-young asked Yang Joon-hyuk to provide the monkfish for the monkfish disassembly show he had showcased on 'Culinary Class Wars', and to reward Yang Joon-hyuk who willingly agreed he served udon.
Yang Joon-hyuk mentioned Jung Ho-young's changed stature, saying, "You show up a lot these days," and Jung Ho-young boasted, "I've been busy since 'Culinary Class Wars.' About five commercials are being discussed now, including electronics, food and kitchenware."
Jung Ho-young said about his recent popularity, "I feel like my popularity has improved because Myung-soo hyung's attitude toward me changed. He asked what my line was, and these days he even offers to vouch for me," and Park Myung Soo acknowledged, "That's right. Jung Ho-young and Jung Ji-seon said they'd vouch for him."
When Jung Ho-young asked, "If only one of you could vouch who would it be?" Park Myung Soo said, "The vibe is Jung Ho-young. And Jung Ji-seon is abroad and might miss it. Isn't there a call for Chef Jung Ho-young?" Jung Ho-young said gloomily, "I've had contact about opening a store in Japan. I'm doing a cooking show in Singapore next month. But although Jung Ji-seon doesn't want to admit it, he's doing better than expected."
Jung Ho-young asked Yang Joon-hyuk to work a day as a part-timer, and Yang Joon-hyuk was immediately put into serving duties. The problem was Yang Joon-hyuk's very slow hands. Even as a day laborer, Yang Joon-hyuk worked like it was his own place, and Jung Ho-young laughed, "Jun-hyuk hyung runs his own place so he's very polite."
However, a problem occurred with room table serving. When informed there were three guests in a room, Yang Joon-hyuk, who moved, was flustered to find three guests at both tables and ultimately solved it with the help of a staff member. While diligently serving, Yang Joon-hyuk even provided voluntary fan service, and Jung Ho-young worried, "If you talk too long the noodles can get soggy."
Yang Joon-hyuk continued fan service by taking photos with students from Daegu, and one guest said they had already eaten on the second floor but decided to eat again because Yang Joon-hyuk was there. Jung Ho-young then moved him to the kitchen, saying, "The dishes are piled up, so please help with washing."
After washing the dishes, Chef Jung Ho-young called Yang Joon-hyuk to the second floor and began the full-scale 'monkfish disassembly show.' As guests increased and wait times grew, they prepared the 'monkfish disassembly' event. Jung Ho-young explained, "I hadn't done this anywhere since that broadcast. This was the first time." His close friend Chef Song Hoon also attended, drawing attention.
After quickly finishing the monkfish disassembly, Chef Jung Ho-young served the 'monkfish liver chawanmushi' he prepared on 'Culinary Class Wars 2' to the attending guests, and the guests praised it while tasting, saying, "It's so delicious," and "It's so tender." Song Hoon also complimented, "It's so delicious. The creaminess of the egg and the softness of the monkfish liver are properly balanced. The sweetness of the yuzu is subtle."
