'Becoming the Legendary Cook' Company Commander Lee Sang is set to showcase his taste radar.
On the 22nd, TVING released still images from the new drama 'Becoming the Legendary Cook' featuring Lee Sang.
'Becoming the Legendary Cook' is a military cooking fantasy drama depicting the journey of Private Kang Sung-jae, who swaps a rifle for a kitchen knife and a bandolier for an apron, to become the 'legendary cook'.
In the drama, Lee Sang makes a special appearance as Company Commander Hwang Seok-ho of the 4th Company. Hwang Seok-ho (played by Lee Sang) appears tough on the outside but is gentle within, with a personality that openly reveals his thoughts. While he relentlessly pushes forward with his desires, the process and intentions are laid bare without concealment, making him seem more like a stubborn bear distant from social awareness, which will create a peculiar tension in his military life.
Especially, the part where Hwang Seok-ho's persistence is most evident is none other than his taste; because he does not easily reveal his standards, the cooks are left sweating every time.
Even in the released still images, Hwang Seok-ho is seen drinking drip coffee made with a dripper instead of common instant coffee, hinting at his unique palate.
Meanwhile, Hwang Seok-ho's sharp gaze as he visits the soldiers' cafeteria, where soldiers recharge their morale for the day, also captures attention. It remains to be seen how Hwang Seok-ho, who possesses a palate that even a three-star chef would find difficult to predict, will react to the food at Gangrimsocho's soldiers' cafeteria.
Meanwhile, 'Becoming the Legendary Cook' will be first released on May 11 at 8:50 p.m. on TVING and tvN.
