After seeing the three ladies leave, Zheng Junhe and Yoo Jae-seok were depressed to death, "I obviously wanted to ask so many things, but I couldn't ask anything." ”

Liu Zaishi looked up at Li Zhunyi, who was "idle" on the side, "Zhun Yi, come to the next interview, otherwise we really won't be able to ask anything if we go on like this." Li Zhun Yi didn't care, but the director of the program kept making eyes next to the camera, asking Li Zhun Yi not to agree, and Liu Zaishi naturally noticed it. No, Liu Zaishi took a step forward, directly blocked the director completely, and said again, "Zhun Yi, you can help us." Anyway, they can't see Brother Mingxiu now. ”

Seeing that Liu Zaishi, who has always been modest and polite, actually began to play clever and block the director, Li Zhunyi couldn't laugh and nodded vigorously, which was regarded as agreeing to Liu Zaishi's request. Yoo Jae-seok and Jung Jun-ha immediately raised their hands in celebration.

The rain in the sky began to fall again, and Li Zhunyi and the three of them continued to walk forward with umbrellas. Passing by a fast-food restaurant on the corner, the front window inside is full of sandwiches, and there are dozens of types alone, which makes Zheng Junhe, who claims to be the god of food, sigh constantly.

Looking back at the people walking on the side of the road, you can easily use the coffee and sandwiches in their hands, and due to the busy life, everyone's lunch is solved with simple fast food, which shows that the pace of life in the city of New York is fast.

As a result, with the help of Lee Joon-yi, the degree of street investigation has been significantly accelerated. It's a pity that almost everyone doesn't know about Korean cuisine, and even when Lee Joon-yi asks about "Korea", everyone just replies "I know it's a country", and then there is no follow-up. It's rare to meet a man who knows a little bit about Korea, and he only knows the names of Korean companies like "Hyundai and Samsung", and he doesn't know anything else. Not to mention Korean food.

Later, Liu Zaishi was curious and asked Li Zhunyi to ask about China, this time the situation was completely different, almost everyone knew about China, and Chinese restaurants were also relatively popular in the United States. As has been illustrated in many American dramas, Chinese fast food is one of their first choices when ordering takeout.

As a result, both Yoo Jae-seok and Jung Jun-ha began to worry about the difficulties of promoting Korean cuisine tomorrow.

After a brief investigation, Lee Jun-yi and his entourage returned to the Internet radio station they had just passed by to participate in the recording of the first American program. Entering the studio on the street, before officially starting the recording, the host first consulted some simple questions, and with the translator Lee Joon-yi, Liu Jae-seok and Zheng Jun-ha were also happy. When Lee Joon-yi said that they were a variety show in South Korea, and they came to New York to introduce Korean cuisine this time, the host unexpectedly said that he had eaten Korean bibimbap and liked it very much.

The word "bibimbap" is naturally a Korean pronunciation, which makes Yoo Jae-seok and Jung Jun-ha excited, and it is rare to meet someone who knows something about Korean cuisine. The host also knew about Kimchi, the representative food of South Korea, and when he asked "what kind of food is kimchi and how it is made", Lee Joon-yi was stumped, he really didn't know anything about kimchi.

Liu Zaishi smiled wryly on the side, saying in Korean that he knew, but English ...... This was embarrassing, so he could only stammered in Korean, "Kimchi is a kind of leavened cabbage...... but seeing the host's confused expression, Yoo Jae-seok couldn't continue. Lee Joon-yi only made a simple literal translation, as for the types of kimchi, the English translation is impossible, Liu Jae-seok said seven or eight kinds of kimchi in Korean balabala, not to mention the host, even Lee Joon-yi is confused, he can eat kimchi, but he only knows one or two types.

After some chicken and duck talking, the host introduced himself as Bob, known as "mc Bob", the host pointed to Lee Joon-yi and Yoo Jae-seok and said, "mc Lee, mc Liu", and then turned to Jung Jun-ha "mc Zheng". Yoo Jae-seok's irrepressible funny instinct moved again, shook his head, said a series of "no", pointed at Jung Jun-ha and said, "He is a guest." ”

At this time, not only Lee Joon-yi and Jung Jun-ha, but also Bob and the cute fat photographer all clapped their hands and burst into laughter.

After succeeding in being funny, Liu Zaishi was also a little bolder, pointing at Li Junyi and saying, "He is a very famous singer and actor in Asia, do you know him?"

The host Bob looked at Liu Zaishi and Li Zhunyi blankly, obviously not knowing each other. Li Zhunyi doesn't mind, it's normal that he doesn't have any popularity in Europe and the United States. But at this moment, outside the glass window behind them, there were a few young people jumping and shouting excitedly, doing the same thing as Liu Zaishi and Zheng Junhe just now.

Several people looked back, but saw a few teenage girls cheering there, following their line of sight, and now the girls were looking at Li Zhunyi, cheering and shouting for Li Zhunyi, looking at it like that. Their voices can still faintly come in from outside, "Lord Zhun Yi!" is obviously Chinese, although the sound is a little strange, but there is no doubt that it is Chinese.

Now, not only Bob, but even Liu Zaishi and Zheng Junhe looked at Lee Joon-yi happily, they didn't expect that on the other side of the distant ocean, they could meet Lee Joon-yi's fans, and they were also fanatical fans.

Li Zhunyi smiled and waved his hand outside, and the cheers of the four girls were even louder, crawling on the glass, screaming incessantly, and the enthusiasm was not inferior to the most loyal No.1.

Turning back to record the show, Bob was surprised and said, "It seems that you are not only famous in Asia, but also your supporters here." Li Zhunyi laughed and teased, "Bob, don't you know me yet." Bob laughed out loud, and it seemed that Lee Joon-yi's humorous approach was very much to Bob's liking.

In the next show, although the language barrier, Yoo Jae-seok and Jung Jun-ha both worked very hard to be funny, using body movements without words, and successfully making the studio laugh through the internationally accepted funny dance, and even the cute fat photographer ran to the camera to join the dancing party.

After completing the investigation, when we met again, night had fallen. Yoo Jae-seok and Park Myung-so met again to greet Jung Xingdun and Lu Hong-chul, who had just arrived in New York, and the group was ready to go to dinner. Today's dinner is to eat at the most successful Korean restaurant in New York, and at the same time, this restaurant is also the venue for the culinary duel the day after tomorrow, so today is also a military investigation.

As soon as he walked into the restaurant, Li Zhunyi saw a very unique mural on the wall, with a patchwork of small lattices, which has an oriental charm. After a closer look, there were rows of small beams, and a small box was placed on each beam, and after asking the clerk, I learned that those small boxes were filled with chopsticks, special chopsticks, which belonged to various Hollywood stars. This can be regarded as an advertising method, which is not as good as celebrity endorsement, but it is also another kind of publicity. The clerk is also very happy to introduce these chopsticks belonging to the big stars, each box has the signature and date of the star, and the people who have left their names here include Jessica Abba, Jude Law, Keanu Reeves, etc., it seems that there are really a lot of big stars.

Zheng Junhe teased, "When will we have the honor to leave our own signatures for others to pay respects." ”

It's a joke, but it's also true. Only by becoming a famous person in the world can you become the object of admiration because of a pair of chopsticks that you use. Although it sounds a little ridiculous, a pair of chopsticks and a signature can become a promotional prop, but this is the reality, this is the so-called star effect. If it is placed in Asia, today's Lee Zhun-yi can also have this ability, but in Europe and the United States, he is just not able to catch it.

After sighing, a group of mermaids entered the restaurant, because it was a team duel, so it was divided into two tables to sit, Li Zhun Yi and Zheng Junhe, Liu Zaishi, Zheng Xingdun sat at a table, at the same time, Liu Zaishi also introduced Li Zhun Yi to help them with the cooking duel this time, Chef Ming. Chef Myeong, a mature woman in her thirties, is the Korean chef at the Arabian Hotel in Dubai, and has won many awards in cooking competitions.

After introducing each other, everyone began to order, Liu Zaishi originally wanted to order his favorite dishes, but Lee Joon-yi felt that he should order some dishes that would be helpful for tomorrow's showdown, such as ordering a bibimbap to eat, see what are the differences between bibimbap in New York and Er's, and what changes have been made in order to meet the tastes of local Americans, so as to be conducive to tomorrow's cooking showdown.

As a result, Lee Joon-yi's proposal was approved by everyone, and Lee Joon-yi ordered a raw beef bibimbap, and then Jung Jun-ha ordered kimchi pot, kimchi cake and other dishes. After ordering, before the food was served, Chef Ming took out a CD, which was the album of "King", handed it over, and asked Li Zhunyi to help sign it.

At this time, Liu Zaishi and the others immediately coaxed, "Chef Ming, it is completely different from Li Zhunyi and us......"

Chef Ming was a little embarrassed to be ridiculed, but his willingness to ask for autographs and photos was very firm, and it seemed that he was indeed a loyal fan of Lee Joon-yi.

After this little chap, the dish also came up, and everyone began to taste it. The Korean food eaten in New York is actually not much different from the Korean food eaten in New York, mainly because there are fewer irritating ingredients, the most obvious is the reduction in the use of chili powder. For Lee Joon-yi, in fact, Korean food is not spicy, it can only be said that the use of irritating ingredients is somewhat common, and it is not really spicy. But in New York, the reduction in paprika makes the taste fresher and more in line with foreigners' tastes: but for Lee Joon-yi, who has tasted the cuisine of China's great rivers and north and south, Korean food is really not delicious.

After studying the differences in the ingredients here, we also have a little more confidence in the cooking duel after that, which can be regarded as a bit of direction.
