Model and broadcaster Joo Woo-jae was taken aback upon discovering the true identity of the dish he had believed to be black pork jeyuk bokkeum.

In an episode of MBC’s ‘Save Me! Homez’ (hereinafter ‘Homez’) aired on the 1st, a group site inspection conducted in Jeju Island featuring Yeong-tak and STAYC’s Yoon was depicted.

On that day, upon arriving in Jeju Island, Joo Woo-jae immediately asked, “Is there anything like black pork duruchigi? I want meat just as thick as my wrist,” seeking out black pork duruchigi. He continued to insist on eating black pork duruchigi even while discussing popular restaurants in Jeju Island, stating, “I will eat black pork duruchigi,” and added, “That day, I mentioned black pork duruchigi 40,000 times.”

Kim Sook expressed surprise, saying, “This is the first time I’ve seen Woo-jae talk about food like this.”

Joo Woo-jae, who had been repeatedly calling out for black pork duruchigi, headed to a restaurant recommended by Yang Se-hyung and ate nomppi gakkjaegi-guk and nomol gakkjaegi-guk. In particular, Joo Woo-jae fulfilled his wish by eating the red meat served as a side dish, which appeared to be black pork duruchigi.

Joo Woo-jae displayed an unusually enormous appetite, finishing off a full bowl of rice and even clapping his hands. Afterwards, he asked Je Jak-jin-eun (President) whether the red meat was black pork, but the owner replied, “The red meat is not black pork; it was white pork jeyuk bokkeum,” leaving Joo Woo-jae in shock.

Joo Woo-jae said, “I just went ahead and ate it,” displaying a state of utter bewilderment that elicited laughter.
