Today (8th) at 7:50 p.m., TV CHOSUN's 'Foodie: Heo Young-man's Dining Journey' will head to Chungbuk Boeun with 'original handsome man' actor Jung Il-woo. A gracious natural meal table in Boeun, accompanied by Jung Il-woo, will be introduced.

'With superior visuals and physique,' Jung Il-woo has lived fiercely without a gap since his debut. After debuting with the sitcom 'Unstoppable High Kick,' he has been in a state of stardom for 20 years without being unknown. Jung Il-woo reveals stories about how he became 'the prince of hanbok' through six historical dramas, starting with an episode where he was suddenly selected as an advertising model after drinking a beer during a trip to Vietnam.

However, even Jung Il-woo, who lived fiercely, faced challenges. He was diagnosed with an aneurysm at the young age of 27, despite showcasing a diverse spectrum of acting. Jung Il-woo noted, "The Camino de Santiago, which I found at the boundary of life and death, has become another turning point in my life." He captured attention by sharing a heartbreaking story about crying uncontrollably during Mass on the last day of the pilgrimage.

Meanwhile, Jung Il-woo, known as the 'entertainment industry’s leading food knowledge expert,' shares how he learned knife skills from Chef Lee Yeon-bok for his role as a chef in the drama 'Midnight Snack Men.' Having showcased his culinary expertise through various broadcasts, the foodie constantly bombards him with questions for a verification session. Jung Il-woo surprises the foodie by answering the deluge of questions without hesitation. Nonetheless, the foodie's praise, calling Jung Il-woo a 'culinary master,' highlights his humility.

In the midst of this, Jung Il-woo and the foodie visit a restaurant in the town of Boeun to taste a meat meal set full of seasonal vegetables. This place, known for its sincerity towards meat, is so popular that it has long-time regulars of over 10 years, drawing crowds of Boeun locals. Additionally, dishes like 'pumpkin stew' made with freshly harvested zucchini and 'natural mushroom hot pot' embodying the beauty of Boeun's mountains and rivers will also be revealed.

The TV CHOSUN 'Foodie: Heo Young-man's Dining Journey' featuring the 'handsome actor' Jung Il-woo will air today (8th) at 7:50 p.m.
