Choi Kang-hee rolled up her sleeves and worked at her best friend's meat restaurant.
On the 21st, the MBC entertainment program 'Omniscient Interfering View' featured actress Choi Kang-hee and BTS J-Hope.
Choi Kang-hee introduced her close friend Mi-ja, a former KBS comedian who was running a meat restaurant. Choi Kang-hee explained, 'Whether I am famous or not, she is consistent, even when I stopped acting. She is as precious as a gem.'
Choi Kang-hee and Mi-ja headed to the meat restaurant after finishing their workout. Choi Kang-hee asked to have her photo posted in front of the store. Mi-ja explained, 'It's a real job, so wouldn't it make it uncomfortable? (That's why I didn't put it up) After I mentioned it at the entertainment awards, she asked me to put it up again. So I put it up small.'
Mi-ja, with teary eyes, cheered for Choi Kang-hee's happiness, saying, '(I felt) it was good that she started working again. She seemed really happy on TV. It must have been tough for her to quit acting, but she overcame that and stood here.' Choi Kang-hee explained, 'During my break, I missed this friend. I thought if I worked, I could see her every day.'
Choi Kang-hee headed to her friend's kitchen. In the past, she was responsible for washing dishes and side menus at the restaurant, and it seemed her body remembered, as she made steamed eggs. Choi Kang-hee donned a uniform and helped with the evening service. She attracted attention with her active demeanor, taking orders from customers and making steamed eggs and fried rice lunch boxes. In response, Jun Hyun-moo remarked, 'She is quick. Is she a twin?' expressing surprise at Choi Kang-hee's transformation.
Choi Kang-hee made everyone laugh by saying, 'In the past, I didn't put roe in my steamed eggs and didn't put pollack in my cold noodles.' Mi-ja said, 'Kang-hee was so diligent, washing dishes. She seemed to have lost stamina. She fell asleep while resting in the playground. At first, her hands were slow, but later she did really well. I understand why she became a famous actress in our country.'
Choi Kang-hee smiled as she washed pots with food stuck to them. Mi-ja expressed her affection for Choi Kang-hee, saying, 'She feels like family, not just a friend. I’ve known her for nearly 30 years, and I’ve never seen her curse or get angry. She can’t do such things, so there are times she gets frustrated. If someone bothers you, I would say I'll fight for you instead. She is a friend like family, even if there’s a risk to me.'
