Actor Ryu Soo-young mentioned the differences from other programs.
On the 7th, the press conference for JTBC's entertainment program "Street Food Business" was held at the Stanford Seoul Hotel in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Attendees included Ryu Soo-young, Fabri, Hwang Kwang-hee, Shin Hyun-ji, Bae In-hyuk, CP Kim Min-seok, and PD Kim So-young. Cast member Jeon So-mi could not attend due to scheduling conflicts.
"Street Food Business" is a program that captures Ryu Soo-young and Fabri as they travel through Spain, the land of gastronomy, starting a street food business with just one bicycle. They challenge themselves to pioneer Korean cuisine in the southernmost part of Spain, where there are no Korean restaurants, using a mobile kitchen called "Food Bike."
Ryu Soo-young, who established himself as a recipe expert and a national cooking teacher through "Pyeonstorang," is set to showcase both his skills and passion in "Street Food Business."
Ryu Soo-young stated, "There were no Korean marts or restaurants in the area. Although there is a Korean Wave and K-food craze, it is mostly in English-speaking countries, and many places in Europe are unaware of it. There were no places to shop. I had to make Korean food."
He continued, "Existing programs have a concept of 'you can make a certain number of servings.' However, 'Street Food Business' requires us to make almost 100 servings a day, it was a war. After finishing the business each day, we had to shop and prepare ingredients. The completely different aspect from regular businesses is that we operate at the same level as our customers," adding, "People passing by ask questions, and while cooking, they take some. There is a culture of 'let me try one before I buy it,' which is different from what I knew about Europe."
Ryu Soo-young also mentioned, "Isn't it said that Europe is sophisticated and lacks warmth? In fact, they are more warm-hearted and family-oriented. If they taste something delicious, they bring their whole family. They are surprisingly warm, kind, and fun people. I think we can truly see the southern part of Spain. I hope viewers can look forward to that."
"Street Food Business" will premiere on the 8th at 10:40 PM.
