Four culinary masters (Chef Kim Min-sung of the Japanese restaurant, Chef David Lee of the meat restaurant, Chef Lim Tae-hoon of the Chinese restaurant, and Chef Yoon Nam-no of the Western restaurant) joined the representative of Jongwon Baek, drawing attention even before the disclosure. Unveiled 'Jongwon Baek's Les Misérables' was more intense and exciting than expected and more desperate and moving than expected.
On this day's broadcast, 20 challengers with different stories gathered at the set where the survival will be held for 100 days. Located in Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, it was a 40,000 pyeong abandoned factory renovated for the 'Les Miserables of Jongwon Baek' The 20 challengers who arrived here with the will of "I was so desperate" had to break through their past, mistakes, failures and pains to move forward.
In the process, the stories of the challengers were revealed. Ironically single daddy No. 19 (Kim Hyun-joon), multi-level debt No. 400 million father No. 16 (Joo Hyun-wook), debt No. 14 (Son Woo-sung), North Korean defector No. 13 (Ha Jin-woo), failed idol No. 6 (Kim Kook-heon), boy thief No. 7 (Kim Dong-joon), children No. 1 (Seong Hyun-woo), Eagles release pitcher No. 4 (Yang Kyung-min), children No. 15 (Yoo Ji-min), alcoholism No. 9 (Oh Chang-seok).
There were various reasons for their failure, but it was the same that they did not have a second chance. Since there was no second chance, their mindset to challenge 'Jongwon Baek's Les Misérables' was inevitably desperate. He will too, because the challenger who has completed the whole course brilliantly in the `Les Misérables of Jongwon Baek' is given `My Own Shop. Each of the 20 challengers with various stories began the challenge with a firm will.
Meanwhile, CEO Jongwon Baek was monitoring the entire situation from the admission of the 20 challengers in the monitor room. That all their actions were subject to evaluation from the beginning. Representative Jongwon Baek expected the desperation of the challengers, but the challengers before the first mission appeared to be somewhat relaxed. Angered by this, the representative of Jongwon Baek said "You are not here to promote friendship."
In addition, Kim Kook-heon, the sixth idol who failed that day, said, `I debuted with a group called My Teen in 2017. After debuting, the public was surprisingly not interested, and the company wanted to release it quickly, so I put it on a survival audition program, and of course, I wanted to take that opportunity"I recalled that time.
However, Kim Kook-heon was eliminated from the third ranking announcement due to the manipulation of the voting rankings of the producers of 「Produce X101」 and was deprived of the opportunity to make his debut.
Kim Kook-heon "I opened the car door to jump off the highway. It was so hard that I wanted to die that I made a stupid choice at the time."
Then "When I was confused about what to do, I saw the Jongwon Baek advertising. There's a word in the advertisement that says 'Reset Life'. I was very impressed. I think I ignited my cooled passion. So I really want to take this opportunity," he said, explaining why he decided to appear.
