In "Neighbor's Millionaires," Korea's representative luxury liquor with a 500-year tradition, "Three generations of Andong Soju" millionaires, will appear.

EBS's "Seo Jang-hoon's Neighborhood Millionaire" (hereinafter referred to as "Neighborhood Millionaire") will reveal the turbulent life story of Park Jae-seo, Park Chan-kwan, and Park Chun-woo, the three generations of Andong Soju, who revived our traditionalist legacy that almost disappeared and put it on the world stage. Their 500-year-old Andong Soju was the only traditional Korean liquor to win the world's top three liquor exhibitions, as well as a head-to-head victory against famous foreign whiskey, proving the potential of "K-Andong Soju." In addition, it was selected as a gift for the president's Lunar New Year in 2021 and delivered to Cheong Wa Dae, establishing itself as a 'national representative traditional liquor' in name and reality.

In this broadcast, we will visit three Andong soju breweries in person and highlight the entire process of making alcohol in the traditional way that has been going on for hundreds of years. Starting with making yeast, a total of 40 days of fermentation, and meticulous distillation, Andong Soju's birth moment unfolds vividly. In addition, the special secret of a master with "75 years of experience" will be revealed to stimulate viewers' curiosity. In the midst of this, Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won challenge the '78-degree alcohol of fear' tasting that can be tasted in the early stages of distillation. Andong soju evaporates alcohol as it boils during the distillation process, and Seo Jang-hoon is very nervous in front of the strong 78 degrees. After taking a careful sip, he was shocked, saying, "I can eat it, right?" and turned the scene into a sea of laughter.

Meanwhile, Park Jae-seo, a "first master," learned alcohol by helping his mother, who was famous for making Andong soju well, and was taught the secret of his family from generation to generation. Even when the crackdown on Gayangju was severe due to Japanese colonial era and rice consumption, his mother protected the family's alcohol only by taste. The anecdote that the Japanese martyr, who came in to crack down, asked for "a bottle of alcohol," is still said to be a legend. In addition, the broadcast also reveals the "four steps to deliciously drink Andong Soju" learning from the 500-year-old Seodang, a tangible cultural heritage, and the identity of the unimaginative "Noo-stepping Master" who stuck Seo Jang-hoon, providing fun, information, and emotion.
