Chef Yeo Min, the son of Chinese chef Yeo Kyung-rae, drew laughter by confessing that he had no intention of cooking.

tvN 'You Quiz on the Block', which aired on the 1st, featured chef Yeo Kyung-rae, a master of Chinese food with 50 years of experience, and chef Yeo Min, a 15-year-old chef who is his son and walking on the same path, to tell a special story as a father-and-son 父.

When Yoo Jae-seok asked about his father, Chef Yeo Kyung-rae, Chef Yeo Min said "Just standing still is scary like a tiger", and "In the kitchen, we call him 'chef' instead of a father", conveying a tense father-to-son relationship.




Then "We are working hard in the kitchen, but there are times when my father suddenly appears and sets the tone."When that happens, I look at the employees and deliberately look at my father's chest. That way, everyone can relax and improve their teamwork, he added.

Chef Yeo-min says, "For example, if your father leaves the kitchen, did he leave?" Let's be more relaxed now", and turned the scene into a sea of laughter.

However, Chef Yeo Min drew attention by revealing an unexpected reason for walking on the chef's path. When Yoo Jae-seok asked "What was your father's reaction when you decided to succeed your father as a chef?" Chef Yeo-min "Actually, I didn't want to be a chef. I said 'I'm going to be a chef because I had something to get in trouble with, but my father didn't oppose it.'




"I quit school because I didn't like studying so much, but my mother told me to tell my father in person" and added laughter by saying "My father asked "What are you going to do in the future" I just said "I'm going to cook" but he told me to go to work in two weeks."

Chef Yeo Kyung-rae, who was listening to this, said "I also found out for the first time today. It's a shock," he said, causing the cast to laugh.
