1. Tiffany Young: The All-Rounder's Unwavering Discipline

Celebrating 19 years since her debut, Girls' Generation's Tiffany Young graces the studio to share insights into her packed schedule and meticulous self-care routines[cite: 1].

2. Ingredient Manager Lee Yeong Ja's Yesan Expedition

Lee Yeong Ja sets out on an intensive food journey alongside Jun Hyun Moo and Yang Se Hyeong to discover unique homegrown Korean ingredients[cite: 1].

The Discovery of "Greensis" Pears

The team visits an orchard growing Greensis pears, a rare cross between Western and Asian pears that remains vibrant green even when fully ripe[cite: 1]. Cultivated for seven years before making their true debut, these pears are incredibly thin-skinned and burst with an overwhelming amount of sweet juice[cite: 1].

The 86-Year-Old Presidential Rib Restaurant

Before heading to the farm, the trio stops at a legendary culinary mecca in Yesan that has been operating since 1941[cite: 1]. Loved by former presidents, this historic spot serves ultra-premium female beef fresh short ribs—so limited that they must be reserved a day in advance[cite: 1]. After losing a game of rock-paper-scissors, Yeong Ja treats the team to an epic feast of fresh ribs, lightly marinated ribs, and rich ox bone broth[cite: 1]. During the meal, history genius Jun Hyun Moo correctly details the historical events surrounding Prince Namyeon's tomb[cite: 1].


3. Making the Ultimate Multiplier Onion Kimchi

The main event takes place at a beautiful countryside farm run by 30-year-old young farmer Kim Do Hye[cite: 1]. Do Hye patented the multiplier onion back in the 11th grade after realizing her younger sibling loved the sweet, non-spicy taste of sprouted onion shoots[cite: 1]. The plant combines the sweetness of an onion with the mild aroma of a green onion[cite: 1].

Step The Kimchi-Making Process
Harvesting The trio pulls up premium multiplier onions from a massive 661m² field[cite: 1].
The Secret Sauce Yeong Ja blends premium Greensis pears, salted shrimp, ginger, green plum syrup, homemade Daegu anchovy sauce, and blue crab sauce[cite: 1].
The Kimchi Battle The team whips up 12kg of kimchi[cite: 1]. A hilarious scramble ensues as Se Hyeong and Yeong Ja fill up massive containers, leaving a highly anxious Hyun Moo with mostly leftover sauce and a mountain of sesame seeds[cite: 1].

The Grand Finale Stone-Grill Dinner

The episode closes with an unforgettable dinner cooked on a custom fieldstone grill[cite: 1]. The crew grills 2.5kg of pork belly, whole tongtong garlic, and freshly harvested multiplier onions, throwing in authentic Sapgyo tripe and a drizzle of local black raspberry wine to create a purple-infused, medical-grade culinary masterpiece[cite: 1].
