In 'Becoming the Legend of the Cook', Park Ji-hoon succeeds in his promotion to mid-level cook.

In the eighth episode of the OTT TVING original 'Becoming the Legend of the Cook' (screenplay by Choi Ryong, directed by Jo Nam-hyung), released on the 2nd, Park Ji-hoon portrayed Kang Seong-jae, depicting his growth as he united the outpost members in an unprecedented disaster situation.

Previously, the promoted private Kang Seong-jae had faced a life-or-death crisis when a signboard was blown directly at him by a super typhoon. Fortunately, he was saved from harm with the help of Captain Hwang Seok-ho (played by Lee Sang), who threw himself in front of the danger. Later, as the Gangnim Bridge, the only lifeline for the outpost, was cut off, an emergency situation unfolded in which the Gangnim outpost became isolated, highlighting Kang Seong-jae's calm demeanor.

As the fifth day of isolation began, combat rations were depleted, and the morale of the outpost members declined. Kang Seong-jae silently supported Patrol Officer Park Jae-young (played by Yoon Kyung-ho) and Deputy Outpost Commander Cha Seung-woo (played by Lee Sang-jun) as they ventured out to find remaining ingredients. Furthermore, he successfully utilized wild greens and mushrooms they had gathered directly from the mountains to create fresh mountain vegetable bibimbap, satisfying the outpost members' hunger and restoring satisfaction at the dining hall.

Moreover, Kang Seong-jae heightened the drama's tension by reporting the suspicious phone conversation of Support Section Chief Lee Min-gu (played by Han Min), whom he had witnessed, to Lieutenant Jo Ye-rin (played by Han Dong-hee).

At the end of the broadcast, Kang Seong-jae succeeded in his promotion to mid-level cook, demonstrating growth to the point where he could even prepare five-star dishes, raising curiosity about what quests and crises he will overcome in the future.

Park Ji-hoon convincingly expressed Kang Seong-jae's emotional arc of cooking with sincerity even in extreme situations, thereby increasing the drama's immersion. Park Ji-hoon left a deep impression with his delicate facial expressions and authentic inner acting.

'Becoming the Legend of the Cook' airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 p.m. on TVING and tvN.
