In 'Jun Hyun-moo Plan 2', Kim Sung-kyun opened up about family and acting during a food trip in Gangwon Province with Jun Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube, showcasing a surprising 'gentle' charm.
The 31st episode of the full-fledged real road-side food documentary 'Jun Hyun-moo Plan 2', which aired on the 30th, featured Jun Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) undertaking a food trip that 'cleared' Gangneung and Samcheok with the charismatic actor Kim Sung-kyun. They sampled a '35-year traditional' Hanwoo beef brisket and rice soup restaurant, a 'real' rib restaurant in Gangneung, and an octopus and whelk pub in Samcheok, strongly stimulating viewers' appetites.
On that day, Jun Hyun-moo, who arrived in Gangneung, revealed local information, saying, 'There is a cow head soup alley in the 70-year traditional market.' He then predicted, 'Today, someone even stronger than my 'eating friend' from last week, Jin Seo-yeon, is coming,' before meeting the new 'eating friend' Kim Sung-kyun at a popular spot in Gangneung, Wolhwa Street. After a warm greeting, Jun Hyun-moo said, 'Let's go to the cow head soup alley and choose a restaurant recommended by the residents,' and Kim Sung-kyun happily replied, 'I always like hangover soup.' Kwak Tube relaxed, saying, 'Seeing (Mr. Kim Sung-kyun) in person, he seems similar to a character from 'Reply 1988.' He seems gentle.'
Upon arriving at a nearby market, the three chose a 35-year traditional rice soup restaurant, highly recommended by the residents, and tasted Hanwoo beef brisket and rice soup. While showcasing a delightful food broadcast, Jun Hyun-moo mentioned the first movie he met Kim Sung-kyun at, the premiere of 'The Drug King.' Kim Sung-kyun shared, 'I was a rookie back then. I participated in the movie through an audition,' revealing the behind-the-scenes story. In response, Jun Hyun-moo praised Kim Sung-kyun, who won a rookie award through that movie, saying, 'After the movie ended, when the credits rolled up, everyone stood up in applause. I've never seen such a premiere.'
In a warm atmosphere, Jun Hyun-moo noted, 'When you think of Gangwon Province, you think of seafood, but it’s rich in meat. There’s an amazing place,' guiding them to the next destination. While walking, Kim Sung-kyun revealed, 'I often traveled to Gangwon Province with my family,' showcasing his warm fatherly side. Kwak Tube then unexpectedly asked, 'Do your children brag about you a lot?' Kim Sung-kyun laughed and replied, 'Not really,' causing everyone to burst into laughter. Jun Hyun-moo chimed in, saying, 'I’ve done a lot of works that the kids can’t watch~' He then asked, 'Does your wife say anything if she plays a brutal role?' to which Kim Sung-kyun responded, 'A common point among actress wives is that they watch different dramas at the same time,' making the scene erupt in laughter.
Shortly after, the three arrived at a rib restaurant, which had an old-school exterior, and ordered the single menu item, ribs, remarking, 'The smell is amazing!' Immediately, a special lettuce wrap made of rape blossoms and wild garlic, along with five kinds of kimchi, was served. Kim Sung-kyun exclaimed, 'Wow, that's right!' in genuine admiration. When the meat was served, Kim Sung-kyun quickly picked up tongs, but Jun Hyun-moo gave him a dubious look. In response, Kim Sung-kyun said, 'The juice won’t flow away. It’s fine,' showing a cool gaze. Kwak Tube remarked, 'I was a bit scared when you said, 'It’s fine.'' Jun Hyun-moo praised, 'You act really well,' saying, 'You go from a friendly smile to suddenly a psychopath when the shot comes in.' Kwak Tube humorously added, 'So you definitely play a murderer in this work, right?' causing everyone to burst into laughter.
After a satisfying meal, Jun Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube, who parted ways with Kim Sung-kyun, arrived at a shopping complex in Samcheok as the evening began to darken. At that point, Jun Hyun-moo introduced a pub, saying, 'Today’s last menu is octopus. It’s a typical neighborhood restaurant.' The two ordered 'whole boiled octopus and raw whelk,' which is known as a gathering place for local residents. Kwak Tube commented on the thickness of the octopus legs, saying, 'It’s the size of a kraken,' while Jun Hyun-moo, after tasting it, said, 'It’s really tender,' as he cut it into large pieces. Afterward, Kwak Tube tasted the entire whelk, which was beautifully extracted, and said, 'It’s really like, 'Does such a thing exist?' I think I’ll remember Gangwon as a place with fresh ingredients.'
