Actor Lee Jung-jae finally meets Yum Jung-ah's table.
Today (4th) at 7:40 p.m., the 4th episode of tvN "Fresh off the Sea" (directed by Kim Se-hee) unfolds the chaotic story of four siblings who prepare a seasonal banquet in Gangwon Province after a grueling job as pollock laborers, alongside global star Lee Jung-jae.
The mountain of potato soup authored by Yum Jung-ah, completed in 3 hours of dinner prep, finally reveals its veil. The cooking novice Lim Ji-yeon, responsible for the handmade dough, will reportedly perform an unexpected rap performance in front of the potato soup with the dough sticking to her hands, sparking curiosity about whether Lim Ji-yeon, the heroine of the dough, can safely navigate the judging moment that began with a potato soup eating broadcast, heightening anticipation for the main show.
However, this is only for a moment; Lee Jung-jae shows a shocked expression at the enormous amount of potato soup and pollock grilled in sauce, which is hard to carry alone, saying, "I’m already full just looking at it," although briefly. After encountering Yum Jung-ah's potato soup, he exhibits a 180-degree change in reaction. Alongside praise that "the visual is a 30-year tradition (potato soup restaurant)," Yum Jung-ah's table, which accurately appeals to Lee Jung-jae's palate, raises further curiosity.
Yum Jung-ah, now regarded as a "cooking deity," continues her activities on the third day in Gangwon Province. Dishes like pollock rice cake soup, exuding a festive atmosphere, and buckwheat pancakes made with pickled cabbage by Park Joon Myun are expected to stimulate the viewers' salivary glands. Notably, Lee Jung-jae humorously appeals, "I can’t see (the pollock) bones" while removing the bones, showcasing a human side of the global star that prompts laughter on set. Meanwhile, the backstory of the kimchi soup terror incident that leaves the neat and dapper Lee Jung-jae sighing will be revealed, increasing curiosity.
Ahead of their trip to Sokcho, the monetary challenges faced by the four siblings and Lee Jung-jae during their game attempts are also unmissable highlights. When the producers present the money-making missions of playing the traditional games of ddakji (slap a tile) and jegichagi (kicking a shuttlecock), Lee Jung-jae shouts at the producers, "I’ve tried it, and it doesn’t work," foreshadowing a challenging mission. Eventually, he laments, "I’m not going to buy a coffee for the guest now!" adding to the humor.
However, briefly, Lee Jung-jae participates vigorously in the game, kicking up a cloud of dust to earn money alongside the four siblings. The ddakji performance by self-proclaimed "ddakji master" Lee Jae-wook, who claims he upset a few childhood friends, and the ddakji kicking scene featuring Yum Jung-ah, known for her poor luck, is sure to make viewers burst into laughter. As they engage in "Fresh off the Sea 2" with the "Squid Game," curiosity increases over whether they can successfully make money for their outing.
Meanwhile, the broadcast will capture attention with unexpected connections between Yum Jung-ah and Lee Jung-jae, alongside the global star's hidden confessions.
