Actress Um Ji-won's cousin was found to be Michelin chef Park Jung-hyun in New York, the United States.

In the MBC entertainment program "Radio Star," which aired on the afternoon of the 18th, actors Um Ji-won, Choi Dae-chul, singer Kim Jo-han, and honorary Britons (Baek Jin-kyung) appeared on the special "Holding the End of the Thumbs Up in 2026."

On this day, Um Ji-won said, "I think I can't control my tears when I'm immersed in a certain moment," adding, "My cousin is working as a chef in New York. He is the owner chef of Michelin's two-star Atomics.

"I went to my younger brother's restaurant for the first time. He explained, "I present Korean fusion dishes, and whenever the food is served, I use Korean artists' plates and introduce Korean culture together."

"I don't know what I'm feeling, but I kept crying when I saw him work in New York, where I didn't know anyone because he was born and raised in Korea," he said. "I ate while eating, saying, 'You can't be silly' and 'You have to be cool.' "
