Actress Kim Min-ha revealed her firm stance on her facial freckles.

In the episode of MBN·Channel S 'Jeon Hyun-moo's Plan 4' broadcast on the 7th, actress Kim Min-ha appeared and explored the flavors of Nopo in Incheon.

They discovered gem-like restaurants ranging from traditional electric-roasted whole chicken and samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) to Hwanghae-do-style Baengnyeongdo naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) and the hidden specialty 'whole steamed sea bream' at a long-established sushi restaurant.

Following up on last week's visit, Jeon Hyun-moo, who has become a sensation in Incheon, shouted, "Veterans never die," as he headed toward an electric-roasted whole chicken shop. He emphasized, "Our 60-something manager says this place has been here since I was a tiny child." The destination exuded a retro atmosphere reminiscent of an old-fashioned pub. After tasting the crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside whole chicken, Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube burst into admiration. They enjoyed a meal filled with nostalgia, complete with samgyetang accompanied by complimentary ginseng wine.

After finishing their first hearty meal, Jeon Hyun-moo introduced Kim Min-ha, the "global trendsetting actress" who captivated audiences worldwide with her fresh and realistic performance in the film 'Pachinko,' saying, "She was incredibly fresh and authentic in her role." Following this introduction, the group moved to a long-established Hwanghae-do-style Baengnyeongdo naengmyeon restaurant that has been operating since 1973. Kim Min-ha, who revealed that naengmyeon is her favorite food, was surprised upon tasting the special dish with milky broth and buckwheat noodles, exclaiming, "It tastes completely different!" The three then seasoned the naengmyeon with anchovy sauce, a unique element of this place, and experienced a new world of flavors.

On their way to the third restaurant, Jeon Hyun-moo mentioned Kim Min-ha's viral 'Valerie' performance from inside the car, offering praise. Kim Min-ha candidly shared her journey: "I auditioned in high school and joined an agency focused on singers, but they wanted me to become an idol." She added, "I wanted to be a jazz singer, but that path didn't align with my goals," explaining why she ultimately chose a different direction after much deliberation.

They arrived at a long-established sushi restaurant better known for its 'whole steamed sea bream' than for sushi.

Kim Min-ha showcased a mukbang (eating show) where she scooped up the steamed sea bream with a spoon and ate it heartily. Jeon Hyun-moo, remarking, "That's why it comes whole," couldn't stop using his spoon either.

When Jeon Hyun-moo asked Kim Min-ha what role she truly wanted to play next, she replied, "I want to act in a work that delves into the very depths of human nature, expressing desires like those in 'Black Swan.'" When asked about romantic roles, she calmly responded, "I don't seem interested in being pretty."

Jeon Hyun-moo noted, "What's truly charming about Min-ha is that when you search for her on portals, 'freckles' comes up as a related keyword." Kim Min-ha remained composed, saying, "I've never found my freckles bothersome since childhood. I only realized they were unusual after becoming an actress. People tell me to remove them, but I don't understand why it's a problem." Jeon Hyun-moo encouraged her, saying, "Keeping them was the right choice. That's Min-ha's unique charm!"

Kim Min-ha spoke openly about her close friendships with fellow cast members from 'Pachinko,' stating, "I often meet Jung Eun-chae and Jung Eun-ji; we even went hiking together the day before yesterday," and "I frequently see Jung Ho-yeon and discuss many things with her."

MBN·Channel S's 'Jeon Hyun-moo's Plan 4' airs every Friday at 9:10 p.m.
