Fencing gold medalist Kim Jun-Ho's youngest son Jeong-woo steps up saying he will eat a chicken head.
Jeong-woo of KBS2 The Return of SUPERMAN makes a mark in the mukbang world with a brave chicken-head eating broadcast.
The Return of SUPERMAN (directed by Kim Young-min, hereafter "The Return of SUPERMAN") has been loved by the public for 13 years since it first aired in 2013. Following Eun-woo in 2023, Jeong-woo ranked in the top 10 for two consecutive weeks in the second and third weeks of June 2025 in TV-OTT non-drama cast popularity, and in the second week of August 2025, Haru and Shim Hyungtak simultaneously entered the top 10 in the same category, proving viewers' strong interest. (based on Good Data Corporation) The show also received the presidential citation at the 14th Population Day commemoration, demonstrating the prestige of the "national parenting variety" show.
The Return of SUPERMAN episode 618, airing today (the 22nd) at 8:30 p.m., is the "dad's bucket list" episode featuring MC Kim Jongmin and Lalali. Eun-woo, Jeong-woo, their father Kim Jun-Ho, grandfather and 84-year-old great-grandmother Wang travel to Taiwan as four generations for the great-grandmother, and the "Woo brothers" Eun-woo and Jeong-woo switch to "Mukkebi" mode in the gourmet city of Taiwan.
Eun-woo and Jeong-woo cannot take their eyes off a whole fried chicken dish at a Michelin restaurant. Especially Jeong-woo, who was targeting the chicken, looks at the chicken head and says "I'll eat the chicken head!", causing father Kim Jun-Ho to have a shocked expression. When Kim Jun-Ho asks, "Can you really eat a chicken head?", Jeong-woo answers, "Yes!", stretching his hand toward the chicken head as if asking for it quickly.
With Eun-woo, their father, grandfather and great-grandmother Wang all focused on Jeong-woo, who held the chicken head in one hand like jokbal, Jeong-woo boldly brings the chicken head to his mouth and widens his eyes. After attacking the chicken head like he would jokbal, Jeong-woo gives a thumbs-up, even winks and says "the chicken head is delicious," becoming a full-fledged mukbang Mukkebi. MC Kim Jongmin exclaims "Wow!" at Jeong-woo's brave mukbang, and the grandfather, smiling proudly at his grandson's eating show, says, "I think we should order one more chicken head for Jeong-woo."
Meanwhile, Eun-woo becomes hooked on the taste of eel noodles. When the eel noodles appear, Eun-woo buries his nose in the bowl and slurps the noodles, even saying the Chinese expression "haocai! (delicious)" to show off his smart big-brother vibe and explode with cuteness.
