SEVENTEEN at 콩콩밥밥
SEVENTEEN makes a special appearance at the cafeteria run by Lee Kwang Soo and Do Kyung Soo in the tvN show “콩콩밥밥”.
In the January 16th episode of tvN’s entertainment program “콩 심은 데 콩나고 밥 먹으면 밥심 난다” (shortened to “콩콩밥밥”), viewers followed Lee Kwang Soo, CEO of Egg is Coming, and Do Kyung Soo, General Manager, as they managed the company’s cafeteria.
After serving their first-ever lunch and handling special snack requests, Lee Kwang Soo and Do Kyung Soo immediately got to work preparing dinner. During this time, director Na Young Seok announced, “We have a celebrity reservation for dinner.” True to his comedic nature, Lee Kwang Soo joked, “Shouldn’t we ask them to pay in cash?”, eliciting laughter on set.
The dinner menu featured stir-fried pork with garlic, soybean paste stew with mashed potatoes, stir-fried potato strips, and fresh vegetables for wraps. Lee Kwang Soo’s unique addition of mashed potatoes to the soybean paste stew received unexpected praise for its creative twist.
The evening became even livelier when SEVENTEEN members HOSHI, WONWOO, and WOOZI dropped by, having heard about the cafeteria from colleagues. The members shared stories about their trainee days, including practicing with EXO songs, prompting Lee Kwang Soo to tease Do Kyung Soo (also known as D.O. from EXO): “That was you, wasn’t it? With ‘Growl’!”
SEVENTEEN members enthusiastically enjoyed the dishes, unanimously agreeing they wanted to return the next day. WOOZI, after asking for a second helping, compared the soybean paste stew to gamjatang (pork and potato stew), a compliment that delighted Lee Kwang Soo, who said, “You completely understood our intention. That’s exactly what we wanted to hear!”
Before leaving, SEVENTEEN also indulged in some ramyeon prepared especially for the cafeteria staff, fully enjoying the unique experience of this pop-up restaurant.
