New gourmet variety show "Baek Jong Won Class" starts today (6/28) for the first time... "I want you to know Korean culture through food from BTS"
Cooking variety show "Baek Jong Won Class" opened with "Janchi Guksu (noodles to eat at celebrations)".

In the first installment of KBS 2TV's new program "Baek Jong Won Class", which was broadcast in South Korea on the afternoon of the 28th, MC Baek Jong Won and singer Sung Si Kyung teach new faces global Korean food, the recipe for Janchi Guksu.

On the same day, Sung Si Kyung said about his appearance on Baek Jong Won Class, "I thought it would be an opportunity to think about Korean food again and learn various recipes. I am looking forward to it because I think it is a new challenge."

At the same time, he said, "I'm worried because the audience rating should be good above all."

But Baek Jong Won emphasized, "This show can be seen through reruns. If it makes sense, that's fine." He also told the production staff, "Baek Jong Won Class is a program that we have been planning for two years. We must work with the sense of a mission." "K-POP stars such as BTS and SEVENTEEN, in the midst of our global boom, Korean food only needs to be served with chopsticks. I think it is food that interests artists and ultimately draws them into the charm of the country."

Sung Si Kyung laughed back, saying, "I want the audience rating to go up because it doesn't have to be meaningful."

After that, Matthew (Poland), Ryan (America), Adin (Iran), actress Amy (Canada), Ashley Songyoung (Korean American), owner and chef of Michelin 1-star restaurant Pabrizio Ferrari (Italy) and other disciples have appeared.

They learned the recipe for Janchi Guksu from Baek Jong Won. Baek Jong Won said, "There has to be no country without noodle culture."

After tasting the finished dish, Baek Jong Won admired, "I taught it well" and said, "I was worried when it was being made, but I was surprised when I tried it. Ashley's Janchi Guksu was evaluated as the most delicious.

"I think it wasn't easy, but I saw great potential" he said.
