Actor Lee Je-hoon and chef Anh Sung-jae quickly became close through a soju guessing game.
On 4th, a video titled 'Perfect pairing of absolute beauty Lee Je-hoon and absolute taste Anh Sung-jae (feat. Guess the soju brand)' was posted on the YouTube channel 'Chef Anh Sung-jae'.
On that day, Anh asked Lee, who had returned to theaters with the movie 'Big Deal', 'Do you like soju?' Lee said, 'I can't drink well, so I hold back a bit,' and Anh also empathized, saying, 'I usually can't drink well either.'
Having started learning to cook in earnest, Lee mentioned Cha Jun-hwan, who previously appeared, saying they had similar cooking skills. Anh then asked, 'Can you handle the knife?', to which Lee replied, 'I actually can't do it well, but I think I can try to follow along.'
Then Anh asked, 'If you think of this as a 'cooking movie', does it feel like you're a character who does knife work really impressively as an actor? I'm really curious about that.'
Lee said, 'I definitely feel that. So when I take on a character and act, I always try my best to be 100% and often give the impression that 'Wow! I really have become that person.'
After completing California avocado kimchi and California avocado chamoe wrap together, the two tasted the dishes. At that moment, Lee said, 'Eating like this makes me crave soju,' and the production team suggested, 'Chef, you said you could guess all the types of soju before, right? Since you had soju dishes, how about you give it a try?'
Anh said, 'Give me soju,' and officially challenged himself to guess four types of soju. Anh sipped the soju consecutively, pondering each. He then remarked, 'Why do they all taste so similar?' and Lee felt confused, saying, 'It feels different every time I drink.'
Here, there is a subtle tension stemming from the chef's pride and the main character of 'Big Deal'. It doesn’t feel like it’s captured on camera.
After taking turns sipping the soju and confirming the answers, Anh got them all right, leading to a surprised Lee saying, 'How is this possible? Chef, you're really a soju expert,' and they suddenly hugged each other, creating laughter.
About starting to drink soju at 11:30 a.m., Anh said, 'It feels like we've become close in a short time. I think I could call actor Lee Je-hoon hyung (older brother).' To this, Lee responded, calling him 'hyung' and said, 'Honestly, my reason for coming out today is to promote the movie 'Big Deal', but apart from that, I don't think I'll ever forget this time spent with you today. I hope you really get to do everything you want in the future.'
