Trailblazing Female Chef Stuns with Barehanded Butchery, But Disaster Strikes on Set
The upcoming episode of MBC’s variety show “Half-Star Hotel in Lost Island” is already drawing buzz, thanks to the debut of Korea’s first female Chinese cuisine chef and a surprise on-set accident that brought chaos to the kitchen.
Airing June 9 at 9 PM KST, the episode follows the “Yangpyeong Brothers” Kim Dae-ho and Lee Soo-geun, joined by Lee Eun-ji, OH MY GIRL’s Mimi, and Ha Sung-woon, as they operate a pop-up restaurant on a deserted island. In the studio, Ahn Jung-hwan, Boom, Heo Kyung-hwan, Lee Yeon-bok, and KiiiKiii’s Sui react to the unfolding events.
The mystery chef made waves before even stepping into the kitchen. Recognizing her instantly by voice, culinary master Lee Yeon-bok exclaimed, “Even men run away when they meet her.” Her reputation for intensity was immediately confirmed upon arrival, though stunned by the rustic conditions, she showed raw wilderness prowess by catching a live fish barehanded and gutting it without tools. Her boldness left cast members calling her a “girl crush”.
But the most jaw-dropping moment came when a fire pit suddenly collapsed, marking the show’s first such incident. Chaos erupted on set, yet the chef remained composed, quickly taking control of the situation.
Now, all eyes are on this powerful figure who even unsettled a veteran like Lee Yeon-bok. Viewers are eager to see how she handles the emergency, and what culinary masterpiece she manages to plate amidst the turmoil. The June 9 episode promises intense drama, unexpected twists, and one unforgettable chef.
