Actor Yoon Kyung-ho shared his feelings regarding the attention he received after appearing in "Pyeonggyego."

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

"Legend of the Cook" is based on the Naver webtoon of the same name (written by J. Robin, illustrated by Lee Jin-soo). It is a "military cooking show fantasy drama" depicting 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 cook."

Notably, Yoon Kyung-ho, who has become a "trendsetter" through Yoo Jae-suk's web variety show "Pyeonggyego," is drawing further attention in the role of Company Manager Park Jae-young. The video of "Pyeonggyego" featuring Yoon Kyung-ho, Ju Ji-hoon, and Kim Nam-gil, released on March 14, is currently surging in popularity, surpassing 13.39 million views.

In response, Yoon Kyung-ho humbly stated, "I am grateful for 'Pyeonggyego.' Someone said I am as popular as '10 Million' actor Park Ji-hoon, but I don't think that's the case."

Yoon Kyung-ho then shared his sincere thoughts: "I am always flustered as an actor who has hidden behind roles, when people show interest in my personal story or in me as an individual named Yoon Kyung-ho. While I am grateful for the pure acceptance of me, I also worry that my character might be overshadowed by a strong personal color. On the other hand, I feel grateful, but I do not believe this love will continue forever. When interest shifts to someone else, I believe my own spotlight will naturally fade. I always keep that in mind."

"Legend of the Cook" will premiere on TVING at 8:50 p.m. on the 11th.
