Kim Poong, Jung Ji-seon, Lee Moon-jung and Jo Seo-hyung — renowned chefs who "know how to cook" — are coming together.
CJ ENM is launching a new variety show, "Cooking is agonizing!"
On May 9 (Sat) the show "Cooking is agonizing!", which will premiere on the YouTube channel "Lacons" and on tvN, is a variety program that documents a "cooking exhibition" project in which chefs who have come together to find new cooking ideas perform. "Show chef" Kim Poong, who cooks only in front of the camera; "dim sum queen" Jung Ji-seon; "Witch with a Wok" Lee Moon-jung; "business genius" Jo Seo-hyung; and comedienne Lee Eunji have confirmed their appearances, and expectations are already high as the show promises a differentiated gourmet experience ranging from gourmet workshops to a four-person, four-style collaboration cooking show unlike anything seen before.
The rhythm the team of chefs will show also raises curiosity. Veteran Chinese cuisine chef with 25 years of experience and the reliable big sister of "Cooking is agonizing!", Lee Moon-jung; Jung Ji-seon, who will hold the team's center between elder sister and younger sister with overwhelming presence; Jo Seo-hyung, a professional chef who will enjoy life as the youngest between the two elder sisters; and Kim Poong, who will become their beloved doll (?), have unpredictable chemistry that promises big laughs. The cheerful energy of Lee Eunji, who volunteered to be the chefs' manager out of her love for food, is also a point of interest.
Meanwhile, the production team of "Cooking is agonizing!" drew attention by releasing a poster featuring the four chefs and manager Lee Eunji. The chefs in the poster, wearing determined yet confident smiles, the energetic Lee Eunji, the flying ingredients, and the phrase "chef team play" make the unusual team-play epic of the team of chefs even more anticipated.
"Cooking is agonizing!" will premiere simultaneously on May 9 (Sat) at 6 p.m. on the YouTube channel "Lacons" and at 10:40 p.m. on tvN. Interest is gathering in what kind of unconventional dishes the four chefs — Kim Poong, Jung Ji-seon, Lee Moon-jung and Jo Seo-hyung — will show.<
