Ch.284Viewership Multiplied by 100

“…Wow, Donghu really eats well.”

At 27 years old.

Now a proper working adult while still maintaining her status as Kim Donghu’s devoted fan.

Ji Eunbi marveled at the screen.

“Nearly six hours of eating and even dessert….”

On screen, Kim Donghu was leisurely waiting for dessert.

Of course, Kim Donghu did say “If the chefs are tired, we can stop” at one point.

ㄴYou think they would?lol

ㄴDonghu, don’t you understand what building connections with you means right now?

ㄴDon’t show that kind of consideration, the chefs came here prepared to die

ㄴIn this tough economy for small business owners, they met you and you expect them to give up? No waylol

ㄴLook at them all with fire in their eyes LMAO

ㄴReminds me of being a rookie

ㄴYeah yeah, Michelin this and that… but who are they dealing with? “Kim Donghu”

ㄴThe Batman announcement hadn’t come out yet, but still

ㄴFact) Even without that, he’s already an insane world-class star

ㄴAgreed, totally agreed

As if the chat was predicting the chefs’ responses.

-“No, it’s not difficult at all.”

ㄴWhile trembling from head to toe LMFAO

-“This much is fine, I’m used to it.”

ㄴFact) That chef’s restaurant is only open for 4 hours

ㄴBut he’s already been cooking for 6 hours?

ㄴIs this some kind of surgery?

-“I’m still going strong! If you want any specific dessert, just let me know!”

ㄴYou really are going strong

ㄴYou just got here

ㄴYou keep going, you’ve got the stamina, you can do it

ㄴSuccess seems far away? It’s right in front of you

ㄴGrab hold of Kim Donghu’s stomach

ㄴRetreat means decline, fear means death!

ㄴDon’t show too much determination, it makes you look weak.

-“I… can do more.”

ㄴChef info) Jung Seokshin, married “two sons, one daughter”

ㄴThe weight of fatherhood LMFAO lol

ㄴ??? : If I do this, Kim Donghu will come to my restaurant, right?

ㄴI, Jung Seokshin, will not back down here

ㄴtmi) Seokshin already mortgaged his house to open his restaurant

ㄴLegendary Jung Seokshin has emerged

The chefs became even more motivated as they prepared Kim Donghu’s dessert.

And after this, the screen began to fast-forward.

While Kim Donghu waited for dessert and talked, it played at normal speed.

Then it sped up again when he started eating dessert.

ㄴThey’re not editing at all to show it’s not fake

ㄴI mean, they could lie and say “he ate for 7 hours straight~” so this proves it

ㄴThat’s not itlol these guys don’t understand broadcasting

ㄴWhat do you mean?

ㄴIt’s Kim Donghu so they’re just fast-forwarding it LMAO what’s all this fake talklol

ㄴAh

ㄴThis is Kim Donghu’s first variety show appearance in 5 years, would they want to waste that footage?

ㄴWhen news breaks that Kim Donghu is coming to Korea, network directors get bumped up

ㄴKim Donghu < This guy is literally a walking jackpot

ㄴSeriously, imagine if Kim Donghu held a dome concert, it would sell out in 20 seconds

After some time had passed.

Finally.

-“Wow… I’m really full now. Thank you for the meal.”

Kim Donghu’s line indicating he had finished eating came out.

Thud.

Thud.

Thud.

Thud.

As soon as they heard those words, the chefs collapsed in their seats as the tension released.

Having given their all.

Faces that could only be described as completely drained.

They were all smiling with a sense of accomplishment, and

at that very moment.

-“Someday I’ll personally visit each chef’s restaurant to express my gratitude again. I truly… won’t forget everyone who came today, and I’ll definitely treat you all properly.”

Kim Donghu’s words compensated for all their hard work.

ㄴJust straight up saying he’ll treat them on broadcast without any hesitation LMFAO

ㄴAs expected, the reward is from the great Donghu

ㄴWow he immediately goes to thank the chefs and bows as soon as he gets up

ㄴAs expected, the character of the great Donghu

ㄴStarting with signing their aprons, taking photos, video calls…

ㄴHe even does the Tarzan yell, that’s something he normally wouldn’t do

ㄴBreaking news) Jung Seokshin bursts into tears when Kim Donghu imitates Tarzan while on call with his son…

ㄴFather, I finally understand now

ㄴSeokshin, are you crying because you see your child smiling?

ㄴLegendary father has emerged

Everyone in the community had a very warm reaction to Kim Donghu’s immediate reciprocation.

This human side he showed despite becoming a world star.

Without a hint of celebrity disease, everyone couldn’t help but like him.

[Breaking news) All restaurants of chefs who cooked for Kim Donghu already fully booked LMFAO lol ]

-Can’t even make reservations, cancellation lists and waiting lists are all full

ㄴYeah~ I knew this would happen so I already made a reservation

ㄴI don’t care if I get a stomachache without eating

ㄴMinseon, I know you’re reading the forum

ㄴDamn LMAO What did you leave with Minseon? LMFAO

ㄴMinseon, it’s me… if you’re reading this, bring me some more chicken

[Is it true that all Comedy TV staff had an eel+Korean beef company dinner?]

-It’s up on the blog LMFAO

ㄴIs this for real?

ㄴIt’s true They rented out a whole building to eat

ㄴThey literally bowed to Kim Donghu before eating

[But after eating dessert and resting a bit, he gets up and goes to eat again]

-Is this Kim Donghu’s famous restaurant now?

ㄴNot famous, just his regular spot

ㄴHonestly, everyone in Dong-gallery knows this place

ㄴIt’s also where you can see Kim Donghu most often when he’s working in Korealol

ㄴIf you’re a Dong-fan, you already know this place

[Ah, here we go, finally going to… Kim Donghu’s favorite restaurant]

-The legendary Korean restaurant on the 1st floor of the Veritas building

-Welcome to “Kim Bokja’s Home Cooking.”

ㄴEven the name is epic

ㄴOriginally it was kimchi stew or army stew or something but it changedlol

ㄴGrandma Bokja kept making whatever Donghu wanted to eat and the menu just expanded

ㄴDong-secrets story 4) Grandma Bokja is skilled enough to turn down offers to appear on Korean food shows

ㄴIs this for real?

ㄴThis is actually true LMAO

ㄴ??? : Want to control Kim Donghu’s stomach?

ㄴWasn’t she not actually that old?

ㄴShe’s relatively young, but her name is Bokja so let’s drink to that

Just as the real-time community reactions showed.

Tasty Guys headed straight to Kim Donghu’s favorite restaurant.

What was unusual was that it wasn’t just the regular cast members and staff.

ㄴWow they brought all the chefs too

ㄴThey just rented out the whole place

They brought along all the chefs who had participated in the broadcast.

And as soon as Kim Donghu entered the restaurant.

-“Owner, I’m here.”

-“It’s been a while?”

-“Yes, I’ve been busy.”

-“Renting out the whole place… should I serve you the usual?”

-“Yes, just bring out everything.”

He sat down with familiarity.

Viewers found this scene quite refreshing.

ㄴWow it’s been a while since we’ve seen Kim Donghu this comfortable with someone

ㄴHe must have been there so many times

ㄴI’m more amazed by the owner LMAO Kim Donghu comes to her restaurant and she’s just like ‘oh you’re here’lol

ㄴShe’s known him for a very long time, since the early days of Veritas

ㄴAt least 11 yearslol

ㄴOh but this place shouldn’t become well-known

ㄴGuess I won’t be able to eat Bokja’s food anymore

ㄴBut if you’re a real Kim Donghu fan, you already know this place

ㄴLegendary LMAO

The menu was also very ordinary,

which actually attracted public interest.

While the elaborate dishes prepared by the chefs were impressive,

people also wanted to see Kim Donghu’s reaction to ordinary Korean food.

-“You always get three servings of spicy pork, one pot of gondre rice, right?”

-“Is the squid good today?”

-“Everything’s good, you fool. Want me to make something special? Eel?”

ㄴIsn’t this supposed to be an ordinary Korean restaurant? Eel comes out right awaylol

ㄴNothing is impossible at Kim Bokja’s Home Cooking

ㄴThe empress chef Bokja has appeared at the end to show these chefs how it’s done

-“No, I just want to eat what you already have today. Boiled pork? Should we just have some boiled pork?”

-“That’ll take some time, just eat something else first.”

-“Okay.”

ㄴWith the chefs, cast members, and staff, that’s over 50 servings OMG

ㄴIs she doing this alone?

ㄴNo no no she has a son-in-law and daughterlol

ㄴThey’re both super shy so they stay in the kitchen but they’re incredibly fast, 50 servings probably takes them 15 minutes?

As the viewers said, the food came out very quickly.

And here too, Kim Donghu kept eating and eating.

ㄴSo this is how he eats for 17 hours

ㄴWow… this is seriously insane

ㄴCouldn’t they just fake this? Edit it to make it look like he ate a reasonable amountlol what the helllol

ㄴBut why doesn’t Kim Donghu’s stomach get bigger when he eats, he just gets more muscular

ㄴIs he actually Baki or something

ㄴThis goes beyond just “eating well”

After Kim Donghu’s long, long meal finally ended.

His gaze naturally turned toward the camera.

As if speaking to the viewers.

“Thank you for the meal.”

He said that as his final words.

The camera gradually pulled back to show the overall situation in the restaurant.

And there.

ㄴThey’re all collapsed

ㄴEveryone except Kim Donghu is knocked out

ㄴHe’s on a 1:1 date with the camera director LMAO

ㄴThe great Donghu, the only one who survived 17 hours of filming

ㄴHe’s really not human

Kim Donghu stood out as the only one smiling.

Everyone else had collapsed.

In a way, it was truly a variety show-worthy scene.

Naturally, the response was passionate.

As if to prove that response.

『Kim Donghu creates new legend. Raises <Tasty Guys> ratings nearly 100 times from its usual numbers!』

『From 0.3% to a peak of 30% viewership… There’s no secret, they just “did Kim Donghu”』

The ratings exploded.

And at this moment, Kim Donghu was.

“You’re saying I need to practice shooting?”

“Yes, two guns… I’d like to be able to use them in both hands.”

He was in a meeting to prepare for his Batman role.
