Problem Child in House Park Eun-young mentioned the conservative Chinese culinary world.
On the 2nd, KBS 2TV Problem Child in House (hereinafter "Okmuna") aired, featuring Park Eun-young and Kim Si-hyun, who became known through Culinary Class Wars, discussing various topics.
Park Eun-young, who has 14 years of experience in Chinese cuisine, said about why she chose Chinese cuisine, "The Chinese cuisine department was the least popular. I didn't want to go. They said if you choose a Chinese major they would send you as an exchange student for one semester, so I chose it. I had never been abroad, and my parents probably couldn't send me abroad, and I thought I couldn't study abroad unless it was then, so I went to China. If they had said they would send me to Japan, I would have done Japanese cuisine."
After studying abroad in China for about four months, she said she learned hand-pulled noodles and dumplings, adding, "I learned it like a tasting course. It helped me a lot when I went to the field."
Park Eun-young confessed that although many students in the culinary department took early employment, she stayed at school alone because she dreamed of working at a hotel and couldn't give up. She said, "At the time, the trend was that girls weren't sent to hotels," and added, "Because of me, the professor came to teach classes and conducted one-on-one instruction."
Eventually, Park Eun-young followed Chef Yeo Kyung-ok, the sister of Chef Yeo Kyung-rae and a professor at the time, into the restaurant.
In particular, Park Eun-young said, "I worked with Chef Yeo Kyung-ok for two years and with Chef Yeo Kyung-rae for 11 years. It took me eight years to be able to hold a frying pan," which surprised many.
Then the MCs asked, "They say Chinese cuisine is conservative toward female chefs, but because of the generational difference, is it still somewhat conservative?" Park Eun-young replied, "It was very conservative even then. It took a long time for female chefs to get on the hotplate. It was common not to be allowed to get on. They would just do knife work and then get married," she revealed.
