Park Ji-hoon, who became a legend as a cook, is now making a major appearance through "cooking."
In the Tving original series "Becoming a Legend as a Cook," which aired on the 12th, Park Ji-hoon, portraying Kang Seong-jae, won over the hearts of his fellow soldiers with his cooking.
Previously, Kang Seong-jae faced the biggest crisis of his military life, being taken away by military police after Lieutenant Baek Chun-ik (played by Jung Woong-in), who had eaten the sea urchin and kelp soup he made, collapsed. However, it was revealed that this was not due to poison or a cooking mistake, but rather a shock caused by Lieutenant Baek's "perilla seed allergy." Instead, Lieutenant Baek praised the taste of the kelp soup, saying he had "seen heaven," turning the situation around.
Through a conversation with his counselor, Kang Seong-jae reflected on the teachings of his late father and steadied himself. Encouraged by this, he showed his determination to remain as a cook despite a proposal from Company Commander Captain Hwang Seok-ho (played by Lee Sang) to change his position.
In particular, Kang Seong-jae demonstrated his growth as a cook by using the status window system to neutralize the smell of old rice with vinegar and captivating his fellow soldiers' appetites with a spicy bean sprout soup. Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun (played by Lee Hong-nae) also opened his heart to Kang Seong-jae's sincerity, harmonizing with him and creating a heartwarming atmosphere.
However, Captain Hwang attempted to change Kang Seong-jae's position. In response, Kang Seong-jae tried to persuade Captain Hwang by carefully frying pork cutlets, but he failed the quest, and even the status window system disappeared. It remains to be seen whether Kang Seong-jae can overcome the crisis of a position change and continue on the path of being a cook.
