Singer Lee Chan-won boasts of his golden network.
In the episode of KBS 2TV's 'New Product Launch: Restaurant on the Side' (hereinafter 'Restaurant on the Side'), airing on the 6th, Chef Chan-to, widely known as Lee Chan-won, makes a long-awaited comeback. As the show's eternal MZ grandmother and a proven talent with nine consecutive wins, Lee Chan-won is expected to fill the returning 'Restaurant on the Side' with emotion and fun. Especially, Lee Chan-won has teased an unimaginable party alongside his comeback, further raising expectations.
In the VCR released that day, Lee Chan-won received top-tier cooking techniques and recipes from Chef Yoon Na-ra, known as "Yoon Ju-mo who brews alcohol," featured in Netflix's 'Black & White: Lisa 2' TOP5. There is a special person for whom Lee Chan-won wishes to serve a precious dish. Following this, Lee Chan-won headed toward the venue where a special event would take place.

Shortly after, singer and actor Lee Jin-hyuk, Lee Chan-won's close friend, appeared as an assistant. While Lee Jin-hyuk's handsome appearance caught everyone's attention, the two immediately began inviting guests. Lee Chan-won stated, "Since this is a special occasion, we should invite many guests," aiming to expand the gathering. Watching this, the 'Restaurant on the Side' cast remarked, "Inviting guests on the spot? Is 'I Miss You, Friend' making its comeback after 24 years?"
Lee Chan-won is known for always taking good care of those around him and is recognized as a celebrity with an impressive network. That day, he began by calling actor Bae In-hyuk, a next-generation Hallyu star, and continued to reach out to diverse stars across genres, including world-renowned violinist Danny Gu. As names of top-tier stars kept appearing, it was announced that members of South Korea's top girl group would also join, further heightening anticipation for Lee Chan-won's big event.
