Choo Sung-hoon left to see North Korea...I have a lot of mixed thoughts in Hamgyeongbuk-do village (I have to pay for food)



Chu Sung-hoon is leaving to see North Korea.

In the fifth episode of EBS and ENA's co-production 'Choo Sung-hoon should pay for his meals', which will be broadcast today (23rd), Chu Sung-hoon, who hopes to tour North Korea, will travel alone in Yanbian, China, which borders Baekdusan Mountain and the Tumen River, to provide a different kind of fun.

After moving to Yanbian, a self-governing Korean-Chinese region, Chu Sung-hoon visits spots where he can see North Korean villages over the Tumen River. First of all, in Namyang-myeon, North Hamgyong Province and the Tumen River Park, where people can be seen, they say that they reach North Korea just by crossing the bridge, but they cannot go there.




Then, visit Namyangdo Island, where you can see the North Korean village from a higher place, and capture the scenery with your smartphone. Choo Sung-hoon couldn't speak easily, but he said "How can I express it?" and showed mixed feelings.

In addition, Choo Sung-hoon offers a taste low kick for the travel agency's president who wants to get his low kick, which is famous even in Yanbian. On the other hand, the president of the travel agency recommends a combination of cold noodles and another food, which is popular among the MZ generation in Yanbian, raising questions about what kind of food combination it will be. In order to eat this, Choo Sung-hoon is burning his will to earn money for his meal, stimulating curiosity about what kind of extreme job he will encounter at Yanbian.

Meanwhile, on this day's broadcast, Chu Sung-hoon, Kwak Jun-bin, and Lee Eun-ji's last meal will be revealed as the entire trip to China of 'Bap Price' in Guiyang is completed. 'Bapjiz' will talk about the most extreme jobs he has ever experienced, such as cleaning high-rise buildings, a traditional porter in Chongqing, and a Maotai village brewery.




EBS, ENA 'Choo Sung-hoon should pay for his meal' will air at 7:50 p.m. today (23rd).
