Starting with the first broadcast in January 2011, Choi Bul-am, who has traveled all over the country for the past 14 years and three months to unravel the lives and culture of Koreans on the table, concludes the long journey, and Choi Soo-jong takes over the baton.
Beyond simple food programs, 'Korean Table' has served as a 'taste memory store' that records culture, history, and stories of local communities contained in one meal, and contains memories and longing. From season to season, region to region, various foods have been found, and the wisdom of life, family, and warmth of neighbors have been delivered.
The warm table handed down by Choi Bul-am now shines new in the hands of Choi Soo-jong. This is not a simple MC replacement, but a process that connects the legacy of the table across generations, as in the expression 'the passing down of the table', and it is a journey to the future with the past.
Choi Soo-jong, who will be the new guide to the `Korean Table', will be a friendly friend and friendly neighbor who sets the table with the viewers with his friendly image as a national husband, son, and brother.
Choi Bul-am, who has been in place for 14 years, said "I want to pass down the story of the table that I have been with for a long time to a reliable junior. I will always support you to continue our deep and deep taste. I hope you will continue to shine with good programs for a long time in the future, he said, leaving a warm message to Choi Soo-jong.
The production team "Choi Bul-am has been traveling every week for the past 14 years to deliver the life and culture of Koreans contained in our food. His dedication and passion will be ingrained in all of our heartsPlease show your appreciation and support for the future journey with Choi Soo-jong, a new flavor of guide," he said.
The 700th episode of 『Korean Table』 with Choi Soo-jong will air at 7:40 p.m. on the 10th of next month.
Earlier, Choi Bul-am had a three-month break from September last year. In the meantime, 10 stars, including actors Kim Min-ja, Lee Je-hoon, Ryu Seung-ryong, Ji Jin-hee, Hwang Jung-min, Han Ji-min, Ko Doo-sim, Shin Ha-kyun, singer Lee Moon-se and Big Bang Taeyang, filled his vacancy with relay narrations.
