Nam Mi-kyung, the "Dumpling Queen" with annual sales of 23 billion won, reveals her life-changing golden recipe and her 2,500-pyeong factory that produces 20 tons per day.

In the EBS program "Seo Jang-hoon's Millionaire Next Door," airing on the 29th, Nam Mi-kyung, the "Dumpling Kingdom" CEO who changed her life with a single dumpling, will appear.

Nam Mi-kyung's dumpling company, which has recorded sales of 23 billion won, boasts an overwhelming scale with a daily production of 20 tons, enough for approximately 100,000 people to eat simultaneously. In particular, the interior of the massive 2,500-pyeong dumpling factory will be revealed for the first time.

From the preprocessing room where dozens of ingredients are prepared, to the mixing room that creates the golden ratio of dumpling flavors, and up to the molding room—the heart of the factory where 150 types of dumplings are continuously born—all processes of the mesmerizing production line will be laid bare. Seo Jang-hoon repeatedly exclaims, "I've never seen anything like this. It's a spectacle."

Next, Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won set out to receive the golden recipe for "life-changing dumplings" directly from Nam Mi-kyung. After Nam Mi-kyung's demonstration, Seo Jang-hoon initially struggled, saying, "That's not how you do it," but soon grasped the technique and showcased his hidden skills by crafting dumplings of surprisingly neat appearance. Eventually, he jokingly told Jang Ye-won, "You're not good at this," revealing a playful arrogance that turned the scene into a sea of laughter.

During the tasting session, the two were given the chance to sample the dumplings they had diligently made. After taking a bite of his own dumpling, Seo Jang-hoon vividly described the chewy texture of the dumpling wrapper, saying, "It feels like my teeth are popping out," and continued with a parade of self-praise, exclaiming, "It's incredibly delicious," which provoked bursts of laughter. The detailed story of Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won's dumpling-making challenge, which showed extreme differences in skill, and Nam Mi-kyung's "daily dumpling class," can be confirmed through the broadcast.

Additionally, Nam Mi-kyung's surprising daily life, where it takes only 10 seconds to get to work, is revealed as the ultimate example of "living right next to the workplace." Contrary to her glamorous success, it was discovered that she lives in a cozy space set up in one corner of the company's representative office. When the simple room, containing only a few sets of clothes and essential items, and the modest space with no TV were revealed, Seo Jang-hoon seemed unable to believe what he saw, exclaiming, "Why do you live here?" while struggling to hide his surprise. Along with Nam Mi-kyung's confession that she goes home during holidays, the special story behind her living in the factory will be unveiled. The program airs at 9:55 PM on the 29th.
