At Gimpo Airport, as in the past, Kim Sung-won and Yoo Jae-seok began to officially summarize the filming of this "Infinite Challenge" after some small talk.

The YouandMe concert special that has just aired is outsourced to other personnel for editing, and the ratings are very unsatisfactory, so the program team can't wait to finish editing this "Lian Pry Special" as soon as possible.

In the entertainment industry, there has never been a real "ratings guarantee", there is no real material, no hard work, no progress, can only be abandoned by the audience.

This issue of "Lian Pry Special" is a work of the program team in order to restore self-esteem.

"Shengyuan, let's go eat together." Kim Sung-won had just said goodbye to Yoo Jae-seok and the others and was about to leave, when Kim Tae-ho PD suddenly came over and said to him.

"Brother Tae-ho has a treat?" Jin Shengyuan was slightly stunned, and then asked with a smile.

"Ahem!" Kim Tae-ho coughed twice, and when he saw that Kim Sung-won had a "you don't agree with me and turn around and leave", he smiled helplessly, nodded and said, "Okay, I'm in for a treat!" ”

This time he went to Japan, Choi Hyun-joon brought five assistants, and after learning the news, he asked the five assistants to return first, and he stayed with Kim Sung-won.

Kim Tae-ho PD found a hotel near the airport and specially asked for a private room.

"Shengyuan, give." After sitting down, Kim Tae-ho PD handed the menu to Kim Sung-won.

Jin Shengyuan was not polite, looked at the menu, and asked, "How about beef hot pot noodles?" ”

Choi Hyun-joon is a standard "omnivore", as long as it's not some particularly out-of-the-way cuisine, he has no problem. Kim Tae-ho PD ordered a few dishes such as kimchi and raw spicy crab, but because he still had to drive, he didn't ask for alcohol.

After the waiter went down, Kim Tae-ho coughed lightly and said, "Shengyuan, I haven't seriously congratulated you on winning the acting award!" The youngest winner of the Acting Awards, amazing! ”

"Brother Xiexie Taehao," Kim Sung-won said with a smile. In his heart, he vaguely understood the reason why Kim Tae-ho invited him to dinner.

"In the blink of an eye, we've been doing this show for almost four years." Kim Tae-ho PD sighed, "I really hope I can keep doing it." ”

"Definitely." Jin Shengyuan nodded and said: "'Infinite Challenge' already has its own fixed fan base, and our program format is eclectic, so we can definitely continue to do it!" Of course, this "always" refers to a longer period of time.

"Hmm." Kim Tae-ho PD nodded, he poured a lot of affection into the show. From the first season of the PD assistant to the current PD, "Infinite Challenge" is also his promotion history, compared to Kim Sung-won and others, he expects this show to last for a long time.

"Sheng Yuan, you are the hero who has followed this show since the first episode, and we are also old friends." Kim Tae-ho looked at Kim Sung-won, as if he wanted to say something, but after a slight pause, Zuihou sighed: "To be honest, when I first met you, I really didn't expect you to have the current results. ”

"I didn't expect it myself." Jin Shengyuan smiled slightly, and said with some nostalgia, "Many things do not necessarily need to follow the progress of the plan, seize every opportunity, and even take the initiative to create opportunities." in order to create unexpected results. ”

Kim Tae-ho PD nodded, the current Kim Sung-won is fully qualified to say such things.

"With your current status, the salary given by the program team is no longer worthy of your worth, and the program team can't treat you as the main MC like 'two days and one night', I'm sorry." Kim Tae-ho PD finally made up his mind, and said slowly while looking at Kim Sung-won's expression.

Although Kim Sung-won's performance in "Infinite Challenge" was not as dazzling as in "Two Days and One Night", he was also an indispensable member. There is even a small part of the audience who are fans of Kim Sung-won to watch this show. So. Kim Tae-ho PD doesn't want to have a conflict with Kim Sung-won because of these problems,...,

"Still. We will try to compensate you in other ways. Seeing that Kim Sung-won did not have the slightest hint of anxiety, Kim Tae-ho continued, "Such as camera editing, guest invitations, etc. ”

"No need to do that, Brother Tae-ho." Jin Shengyuan smiled and said, "In the current situation, everyone has lowered their salaries, and if I raise my salary, it will look different." Moreover, although I won the acting award, after all, my qualifications are still shallow, and now is not the time to compete too much, these are not problems. Brother Tae Hao, you won't invite me to dinner just because of this, will you? ”

"Hehe," hearing Kim Sung-won's words, Kim Tae-ho's expression was relieved, and he said with a smile: "Of course it's not just because of this. Aren't you married? It's a celebration of my seniors. ”

"Then Xiexie Brother Tae-ho." Jin Shengyuan unceremoniously agreed.

"Don't be busy saying thank you, the program team has also prepared a surprise gift for you!" Kim Tae-ho suddenly said with a mysterious smile.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and the waiter brought up the meal they had ordered.

"Mr. Jin Shengyuan, may I ask if you do the beef hot pot noodles yourself or will we help you?" After setting up the meal, the waiter did not go down immediately, but asked softly.

"Xiexie, let's just do it ourselves." Jin Shengyuan looked at the materials and said, "Please help us send another mushroom and a kelp." ”

"Haode, Mr. Kim Sung-won." The waiter nodded.

"I've heard for a long time that Shengyuan's cooking skills are great, and today I finally have the opportunity to taste it." Kim Tae-ho p.d. rolled up his sleeves and said as if he was ready to feast.

"I'm sorry, Brother Taihao, I will definitely invite you to dinner more in the future." Jin Shengyuan said with a smile, "As long as you are not afraid of being said to accept bribes." ”

"Hehe," Kim Tae-ho shook his head with a smile, ignoring Kim Sung-won's quip.

"Brother Taehao, what was the surprise gift you just said?" Jin Shengyuan asked as he started sorting out the materials.

"It's not a surprise to say this." Kim Tae-ho shook his head and said, "You just wait!" ”

Jin Shengyuan smiled helplessly and stopped asking.

There are as many as 20 kinds of ingredients for beef hot pot noodles, which is very cumbersome. After the soup base boils, Jin Shengyuan puts fresh mushrooms, kelp, shredded green onions, etc. into the pot one by one, boils for a short time, turns on the high heat, puts in four servings of noodles, covers the pot and simmers for a while, and then adds enoki mushrooms, cabbage and other ingredients again, as well as seasonings such as minced garlic, sesame seeds, and chili powder.

With the addition of vegetables and seasonings, the smell seeps out little by little, little by little, through the cracks in the lid, attracting people to gluttony.

"What a fragrant smell!" Kim Tae-ho p.d. praised.

Jin Shengyuan smiled slightly, and after a short period of time, he lifted the lid of the pot again and put in the artemisia stalks and beef slices. With Jin Shengyuan's movements, a white hot air gushed out, instantly filling the table sky.

Kim Tae-ho and Choi Hyun-joon couldn't help but take a deep breath and have a thought at the same time: "This is the taste!" ”

"Brother Tai Hao, Brother Xianjun, you can eat it." After the beef and artemisia stalks were broken, Jin Shengyuan took off the lid of the pot and said.

"Good!" Kim Tae-ho and Choi Hyun-joon were both polite, and each scooped up a large bowl of beef noodle soup.

After a few days of struggling in the snow and ice of Japan, it was a great pleasure to return to Seoul on a cold and windy evening, munching on steaming noodles in a warm room and occasionally taking a bite of hot hot pot soup.

Jin Shengyuan's forehead and sideburns soon appeared with a layer of fine sweat, and the whole body was transparent and warm from the inside out, which made the three of them can't help but bury their heads in eating.

The three of them ate for nearly an hour before it ended. …,

"Sheng Yuan, how about eating beef hot pot noodles next time?" When Choi Hyun-joon drove back to the company, he said to Kim Sung-won unsatisfactorily, "In winter, especially when the wind is cold, it's so cool to hide in the house and eat this!" Especially listening to the cold wind on the window, a sense of satisfaction arises! ”

Kim Sung-won shook his head speechlessly, this statement is really in line with Choi Hyun-jun's character.

After returning to the office, Kim Sung-won and Choi Hyun-joon carried their travel bags to their rooms, and then he changed into a pair of fat shorts and walked to the bathroom with a bath towel draped. At this time, there is no need to worry about being seen by the staff.

……

Just as Jin Shengyuan was taking a hot bath, nine figures of different heights suddenly appeared outside Jin Shengyuan's door, and then directly opened the door and walked in.

Needless to say, it's the Taeyeon Nine.

As their popularity skyrocketed, Zhao Zhenya hit them with the idea and prepared to shoot a magazine on their theme. Today, since they had an early dinner, they have been shooting magazines in the underground studio until this moment.

When they were about to leave, they ran into Choi Hyun-joon, who had gone to look for Park Jung-yoon, and learned that Kim Sung-won had returned to the company, so they sneaked up together.

"Shengyuan oppa's company is not guarding us anymore," Yuri watched Taeyeon skillfully open the door, and suddenly said in a smug voice, "Why don't we steal the contents of Shengyuan oppa's room another day and sell them for meat and eat?" ”

"You're too unideal!" Xiuying looked at Yoo-ri with disdain, and then secretly nodded Taeyeon and Seo-hyun with her chin, and said, "See? Tie these two up, enough for you to eat pork belly and Korean beef for three lifetimes! ”

"You're still ruthless......" Yuli realized how kind she was.

"Shengyuan oppa is not there?" Taeyeon said strangely when they pushed open the door of the back room and found it empty.

"I'm going to take a shower." Yuna pointed to the clothes piled on the bed and said.

"The things that Shengyuan OPPA brought back are all in the living room, why don't we find them out ourselves?" At this time, Hyoyeon's voice sounded in the living room.

"Good!" Except for Taeyeon, everyone agreed.

The three suitcases were opened, and the large and small things were taken out, and Taeyeon seemed to be hiding something, squatting nervously to the side, looking left and right, and then when she saw the contents of one of the suitcases, she quickly pounced and shouted, "This is mine!" After speaking, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he pulled the box and ran into the back room.

"Oh-" Seeing Taeyeon's reaction, so-young, sunny, and the others immediately thought of something, and shouted in a lengthened voice.
