'Actor Yoon Kyung-ho spared no praise for Park Ji-hoon, a former member of the group Wanna One.

'On the afternoon of the 6th, a production presentation for the new OTT TVING original "Cooking Soldier: Becoming a Legend" (hereinafter "Cooking Soldier") was held at the Pullman Ambassador Seoul Eastpoll in Jang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. Director Jo Nam-hyung and actors Park Ji-hoon, Yoon Kyung-ho, Han Dong-hee, Lee Hong-nae, and Lee Sang attended the event.

'"Cooking Soldier" is based on the Naver webtoon of the same name (written by J. Robin, illustrated by Lee Jin-soo). The military cooking show fantasy drama follows the journey of Private Kang Sung-jae (played by Park Ji-hoon), who swaps his rifle for a kitchen knife and his ammunition belt for an apron, transforming into the "legendary cooking soldier."

'On the day, Yoon Kyung-ho began by saying, "I first saw Park Ji-hoon at the 'Cooking Soldier' meeting. At that time, I hadn't yet watched the 'Weak Hero' series. After hearing that this guy was in 'Weak Hero,' I watched it later."

'He continued, "After watching 'Weak Hero,' and then the million-viewer film 'King the Land' (King and I), I saw everything reflected in Park Ji-hoon's eyes. I was captivated by his gaze. There is no male actor with eyes like his. He has truly remarkable eyes. In 'Cooking Soldier,' another side of his eyes is revealed. It contains comedy, cuteness, mischief, and sadness. As someone who has served in the military, I believe Park Ji-hoon perfectly captured the bewildered look of a recruit." His comments raised expectations for the drama.

'"Cooking Soldier" will premiere on TVING at 8:50 p.m. on the 11th.
