Seo Bun-rye, "the only master of Cheonggukjang in Korea," reveals both the colorful past that made her name as the owner of the Gangnam building and the hidden secret behind her entry into North Korea.

EBS's "Seo Jang-hoon's Neighborhood Millionaire," which airs at 9:55 p.m. on the 18th, will feature a dramatic life story of food name No. 62, also known as "Cheonggukjang Grandma," which has a myth of 10 billion won in annual sales. Seobunrye is a person who consistently protects the traditional method that has been passed down from generation to generation, and has risen to the position of "Cheonggukjang Master," the only one in Korea with a deep and heavy taste of hands. In this broadcast, the farm in Seobunrye, which boasts a size of 30,000 pyeong, and the special know-how contained in the taste of a master who fascinated Seo Jang-hoon at once will be revealed, raising expectations. In particular, after meeting Seo Jang-hoon, Seo Bun-rye showed generous affection, saying, "The same Dalseong Seo family," adding to the fun.

In the midst of this, Seo Bun-rye's brilliant past heyday, hidden behind the current simple and friendly appearance, catches the eye. Boasting a natural sense of business, she took charge of her husband's ruined travel agency and transformed it into a "real company" that earned a whopping 10 billion won in the 1990s. At that time, she proudly rose to the rank of building owners by building an 11-story building in the middle of Gangnam, surprising with a self-deprecating confession that "I honestly lived a healthy life." But the glorious glory did not last long. A momentary crisis left him in debt of billions of won, and eventually had to dispose of the building, which was a symbol of success. Seo Bun-rye recalls the desperate moment when she fell to the floor, saying, "I even sold my children's stone rings." Seo Bun-rye's dramatic story, which fell from the peak of success to the end of despair in an instant, can be confirmed through the broadcast.

Meanwhile, another surprising incident surrounding the Seobunrye, the hidden story of North Korea's advancement, will also be revealed in this broadcast. Seo Bun-rye, who was called Dr. Jang and famous enough to come to learn the secret method from a distance, was asked to build a soybean paste factory in North Korea in 2006 and walked directly on North Korean land. Seo Bun-rye recalls the time, "When I first sat face to face with a North Korean official, I was so nervous that I didn't know what to say." However, the words of the North Korean official that followed moved her heart, and in the end, Seobunrye decided to help them. Since then, she has successfully led the construction of a soybean paste factory in North Korea, and for that reason, she made headlines in North Korean newspapers under the name of 'Doenjang Omani', leaving another legend.

From being a building owner in Gangnam to being broke, to becoming a legendary master who captured North Korea beyond Korea's only Cheonggukjang master, Seo Bun-rye's turbulent life history will all be revealed on EBS's "Seo Jang-hoon's Neighborhood Millionaire" at 9:55 p.m. on Wednesday, February 18.
