In the play, Kim Shin-rok plays Jin Myung-sook, a 15-year veteran of a rice soup restaurant, and becomes a key member of 'Jeongje' as a scout for Ko Min-si (played by Mo Yeon-ju). Jin Myung-sook, who is in charge of serving and cleaning as well as a firm philosophy on cooking, is in charge of the kitchen while Mo Yeon-jae is away, becoming an indispensable person. Kim Shin-rok's unique friendly dialect and detailed facial expressions bring the drama to life like a flavorful seasoning.
Her human side opens the hearts of people around her. Not only the feisty Han Beom-woo (Kang Ha-neul) but also the unstable Shin Chun-seung (Yoo Soo-bin) gradually opened up to his warmth and changed. Kim Shin-rok's performance, which is full of spectacles, brings the character to life and attracts viewers' love.
Shin Chun-seung, played by Yoo Soo-bin, was a former master of a local rice soup restaurant and was once crooked enough to be driven as a suspect who set fire. However, with the 'refining' team, the kitchen is restored and gradually changed with warm consolation. The young master, who was intimidated, transformed into the youngest in the kitchen and played an all-round role in serving, promoting, and brewing alcohol.
In particular, Yoo Soo-bin expressed an extreme temperature difference from the initial charisma to the second half 'friendly retriever', convincingly capturing the charm of a character named Shin Chun-seung. His performance, which is not exaggerated but realistic, makes him realize his delicate inner workings.
Kim Shin-rok and Yoo Soo-bin flexibly cross the central axis and licorice roles in 'Your Taste', respectively, giving the play a sense of stability. Viewers are praising the characters for their "growth and relationship changes are natural" and "warm smoke that smells like rice".
Meanwhile, "Your Taste" depicts the process of recovering food, people, and wounds centered on the Korean food brand "Jeongje" created by Han Beom-woo (Kang Ha-neul), the top chef in the school, and Mo Yeon-ju (Ko Min-si), the CEO of a food start-up. During the remaining four episodes, expectations are rising for what kind of 'combination of taste' they will complete their impressions.
The 7th episode of 'Your Taste' will air on the ENA channel at 10 p.m. on June 2, and will be released on KT Genie TV with a free VOD shortly after the main broadcast. OTT is also available on Netflix.
