"Dubbuck's Food Master" is a gourmet travel entertainment with the concept of visiting local restaurants without prior recruitment. The pilot, which aired in 2023, was praised for its fresh plans and realistic responses from actors, leading to the regular programming.

The first destination of this season is Florence, Italy. It focused on finding the taste of the real street deep in the alley rather than the tourist attraction. Kwon Yul said "Famous tourist attractions are good, but I wanted to visit a restaurant loved by locals in the alley where we walked and experience it and convey the taste."," he said, expressing his sincere intention to plan.

In particular, the three cast members' 'real combination' draws attention. Kwon Yul took the center stage as the only performer with him from the pilot, and Yeon Woo-jin chose a new challenge with an entertainment outing. Lee Jung-shin plays the role of the youngest who raises tension based on his experience in a number of entertainment shows.




First of all, Yeon Woo-jin thought, "Let's try deviating, not work." I'll try my best`It was my first time doing a food show abroad, but the combination with the older brothers came fresh."

Asked about chemistry, leader Kwon Yul mentioned 'horizontal leadership'. He said "The youngest spirit quietly followed well, and Woo-jin narrated historical and cultural stories in a coherent way. A combination of individuals' personalities." Yeon Woo-jin said "Kwon Yul was the leader not only of the cast but also of the entire scene. Thank you for leading the journey well even in an awkward relationship."

Lee Jung-shin tried to show the appearance of the youngest but the oldest, regarding the nickname 'The eldest (the eldest + the youngest)'. He led the older brothers and took on a lot of hitting parts with his body." He added that "I was in charge of communicating directly with people and getting information, which helped me feel the real local sensibility."




There was also Yeon Woo-jin's confession of 'A sense of alienation from entertainment'. He "I tried to coordinate the opinions of the two friends by answering them late on purpose, because they had different tastes alone. I also remember being sad alone when I saw the older brothers entering the country affectionately at the airport, drawing laughter. But he was a new challenge in his 15 years of acting, and the entertainment was really raw. I've found it's not an easy area to do."

They emphasized that 'Ttubucki Taste Master' is not a simple mukbang, but a program that contains stories of culture and people's alleys. As we filmed while maintaining our authenticity despite difficulties in recruiting the site and unexpected situations, we asked them to look forward to the 'unprocessed real taste'.

Channel S and SK Broadband's co-produced entertainment show 「Ddubuck's Ttukbuck Food Master」 will premiere at 9:20 p.m. on the 7th.
