Today (13th) at 7:50 p.m., on TV CHOSUN's 'The Food Guest: A Journey with Heo Young-man,' we head to Icheon with veteran broadcaster Park Soo-hong, who has begun a second life through marriage and childbirth. We will experience the locally-sourced Icheon dining table filled with fresh Korean produce alongside Park Soo-hong.

After 35 years as a broadcaster, Park Soo-hong has created quite a stir in the public eye after marrying Kim Da-ye, a former announcer, and welcoming a daughter at the late age of 54. He bursts into happy laughter, saying he feels like he might “go crazy” over the joy of his daughter, ‘Jae-i.’ While smiling at a baby customer in the restaurant, Park Soo-hong, perhaps thinking of his daughter, reveals his doting side by sharing his daughter’s cries of “Mom, Dad.”

In addition, when Park Soo-hong was seen removing the charred parts of the slightly burned meat, the food guest suggested, “Let’s just eat it.” However, Park Soo-hong responded playfully, saying, “I have to live a long time for my daughter.” The story of doting father ‘Jae-i's Dad’ Park Soo-hong will be revealed.

Meanwhile, Park Soo-hong, who was once a cooking show host, is actually a cook with real cooking certifications. When a food guest cautiously mentioned that a dish had a slightly fishy aftertaste, Park Soo-hong immediately denied it within 0.1 seconds and defended himself strongly, playfully dubbing the food guest “a lone champion.” He also showcased his veteran broadcasting skills by feeding the production team directly and requesting taste descriptions.

Meanwhile, the chairman of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, Kang Ho-dong, who rose from a low-ranking employee to the head of NongHyup, makes a surprise appearance. Chairman Kang is an advocate for eating three meals a day consisting solely of rice. He points out longevity and skin health as commonalities shared by countries like Korea and Japan that make rice their staple food, elaborating on the value of our rice. The stories of the three people united over a delicious rice meal add to the anticipation.
