Actress Shin Eun-kyung reveals her special connection with the late Kim Soo-mi.
In the TV Chosun cultural program ‘Gourmet Heo Young-man's Baekban Gihang’ airing at 10:30 PM on the 20th, actress Shin Eun-kyung, who was an iconic figure of the 90s X generation with her unique style, will visit a dining table in Yeongju, Gyeongbuk, which is filled with the clear energy of the Sobaeksan Mountain.
Shin Eun-kyung reached the peak of her acting career with the character ‘Jin Cheon-dak’, an ambitious scrub woman in the drama ‘Penthouse’, following the success of the movie ‘My Wife is a Gangster’. She is so dedicated to her acting that she learned the scrubbing techniques by visiting a real scrub woman and even showed up for her first shoot with cupping therapy all over her body. Her passionate performance, which did not spare her body, gradually increased her importance in the show, making her an indispensable main character. The behind-the-scenes story of Shin Eun-kyung's acting life will be revealed.
Additionally, she shares a past story of how, during her high school years, she admired actress Ha Hee-ra so much that she had to run around a snowy playground until icicles formed in her hair. This story from decades ago, which contributed to making her the actress she is today, can be confirmed in the broadcast.
Meanwhile, Shin Eun-kyung confesses that she experienced the pain of losing a close person last year. Upon hearing the news of the passing of her mentor, Kim Soo-mi, who always supported her and embraced her warmly, Shin Eun-kyung collapsed in shock and could not get up for two days. She expresses her longing for Kim Soo-mi, even if belatedly. In response, gourmet Heo Young-man expresses his regret, saying, “I should have made a nice caricature for her at that time.” We will hear about the warm relationship between the late Kim Soo-mi, who taught her the path of adulthood, and Shin Eun-kyung.
On this day, Shin Eun-kyung and gourmet Heo Young-man visit a restaurant specializing in cow head soup, where they compete with just one menu item. This place is particularly famous for being a gathering spot for local residents, and during filming, it is rumored that the restaurant was turned upside down by a special gift from a customer. Additionally, they will experience a hearty Cheonggukjang set made with Buseoktae beans, which can only be tasted in Yeongju, and the owner’s affordable Hanwoo rib meat, which he personally debones.
‘Gourmet Heo Young-man's Baekban Gihang’ featuring the ‘thousand-faced’ actress Shin Eun-kyung will air today (20th) at 10:30 PM due to a special program scheduling.
