In 'Jeon Hyeon-mu Plan 3', Jeon Hyeon-mu, Kwak Tube, actor Jung Woo, and Shin Seung-ho set out to discover hidden restaurants in Seoul's back alleys.

In the 27th episode of the MBN·Channel S variety show 'Jeon Hyeon-mu Plan 3' (co-produced by MBN, Channel S, and SK Broadband), which aired on the 24th, scenes were revealed of Jeon Hyeon-mu and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) joining Jung Woo and Shin Seung-ho for the second installment of the 'Seoul Back Alley Tour.' Starting at a renowned Sogang University 'Guk-tteok (brothy rice cakes)' spot, they visited a Yeongdeungpo 'Master of the East' tuna specialty restaurant and a hidden gem in Gongdeok-dong for charcoal-grilled bread, completing their 'Seoul Back Alley Food Map.'

Upon arriving at the back alley near Sogang University, Jeon Hyeon-mu remarked, "This is a place I visited frequently during my university days at Yonsei University," and explained, "We consider Ewha Womans University, Sogang University, and Hongik University as one area. This place has a unique atmosphere."

He then announced the 'Viewer's Plan,' saying, "This is a 30-year regular spot for viewers, and I guarantee you'll taste something you've never had before," urging everyone to hurry. At the restaurant, Jeon Hyeon-mu ordered in the establishment's unique style, "Please give us two rolls for 5,000 won." When the 5,000-worth of 'Guk-tteok' arrived with two eggs and two fish cakes, he chopped the ingredients finely and ate them with the broth. However, his first reaction was, "It has absolutely no flavor." Surprised by the unexpected review, everyone was stunned. After taking a few more spoonfuls, Jeon Hyeon-mu admitted, "It doesn't have the taste of Pyongyang Naengmyeon, but I think I'll keep coming back," acknowledging its addictive quality and bringing laughter.

The two welcomed Jung Woo, who made his directorial debut with the film 'Jjanggu,' and Shin Seung-ho as 'food friends.' The four immediately headed to a tuna specialty restaurant located in a Yeongdeungpo back alley. Jeon Hyeon-mu, using a Busan Sannamja dialect, shouted "De-ga-ja (Let's go in)" to liven up the atmosphere. As a lavish tuna course meal unfolded, a mukbang (eating show) and life-changing talk began simultaneously.

Shin Seung-ho revealed, "I lived as a soccer player for 12 years until I was 21. After my injury, I could have rehabilitated, but I didn't want to continue." He added, "After quitting soccer, I worked as a fashion model before becoming an actor." Regarding the time he became a hot topic as a 'Red Velvet Handsome Bodyguard,' he recalled, "I was working as a part-time security guard at a department store and was assigned to close protection." He further stated, "I had forgotten about it, but I met Red Velvet's Irene again while filming a movie with her." Jeon Hyeon-mu was surprised, exclaiming, "Irene is your sister?" and laughed.

Shortly after, various cuts of raw tuna and tuna offal jeotgal (fermented seafood) appeared. Jeon Hyeon-mu, noting there was no fishy smell or blood taste, gave the 'Master of the East' a thumbs-up. Jung Woo watched Kwak Tube eating and exclaimed, "He's really cute," while Jeon Hyeon-mu encouraged him, "Please cast him in 'Baram 3'." Jung Woo regretted, "If I had known Kwak Tube a little earlier, I would have cast him in the production team of 'Jjanggu'." Shin Seung-ho agreed, saying, "He's perfect for the production team role." Jung Woo then praised Shin Seung-ho's on-screen performance, stating, "He played a friend from Dong-A University, and Shin Seung-ho really nailed the Busan dialect. On set, he was flying around later on."

After enjoying the sticky tuna tears, the four headed to their final stop, a charcoal-grilled pork restaurant in Gongdeok-dong. Amidst the nostalgic atmosphere of an old establishment, Jeon Hyeon-mu rang the 'Golden Bell' to coordinate filming, leading to cheers. Immediately, they placed salt-grilled pork on the grill. While the meat was cooking, 'big eater' Shin Seung-ho watched intently and took the first bite. With his thumbs-up signal, the full-scale mukbang began, and the four quickly cleared the pork galbi, skin, and grilled saury.

During this, Jeon Hyeon-mu asked about Jung Woo's period of obscurity. Jung Woo explained, "I was unknown for about 10 years. My actual income started after the drama 'Best Lee Soon-shin,' which I filmed after the movie 'Baram.' After that, I was approached for 'Reply 1988.'" When asked about Shin Seung-ho as an actor, Jung Woo said, "I look forward to more from him. Although he wants to change his strong image, if he creates another character with that strong image, his potential will explode." Meanwhile, Shin Seung-ho asked the table next to them, "Please grill some meat and pass it to us," showing his sincere mukbang spirit and making everyone burst into laughter.

'Jeon Hyeon-mu Plan 3' airs every Friday at 9:10 p.m.
