'The Legend of the Cooking Soldier' has even captured the taste buds of a North Korean resident, played by Park Ji-hoon.

'The Legend of the Cooking Soldier,' which aired on the 18th, depicted an emergency situation in which a North Korean resident breached the military perimeter and descended into South Korea.

'The North Korean resident claimed the incident was caused by the weather and strongly demanded to be sent back to North Korea. Officers, worried about being held responsible and facing backlash, continued to persuade him until the regimental commander arrived. However, the North Korean resident stubbornly insisted, "I will not even drink a drop of water in South Joseon."

'At that moment, a loud rumbling sound came from the North Korean resident's stomach, and the officers urgently ordered food delivery.

'But upon seeing the delivered food, the North Korean resident refused, saying, "All of this is food made by others. How can you show off? Take it all away." Eventually, the officers contacted Cooking Soldier Kang Seong-jae (played by Park Ji-hoon), who soon appeared with food in hand.

'Kang Seong-jae placed down a pork cutlet, saying, "I just fried this fresh. Please enjoy it." Park Jae-young (played by Yoon Kyung-ho), who had seen this, reacted skeptically, saying, "He even refused sashimi, yet he's easily swayed by the pork cutlet Kang Seong-jae fried."

'Inside the office, the North Korean resident, after tasting the pork cutlet, was overcome with emotion. "I have tasted the taste of freedom here. The taste of freedom is very savory, rich, and ecstatic," he said, shedding tears.

'In response, the regimental commander (played by An Gil-kang) warmly welcomed him, saying, "We sincerely welcome you to the Republic of Korea, where freedom is savory and crispy." The North Korean resident then chose to defect.'
