On this day, he will personally perform the original creator's version of the 'NEON' choreography as well as the choreography for Shinhwa's 'Hae-gyeolsa.' Regarding changes in the dance scene, he candidly said, "When 'Street Woman Fighter' became a mainstream success, my work decreased." Nevertheless, he showed his love for dance, saying, "I never thought about quitting dancing completely."

Chef Jung Ji-sun opens up about the difficulties of reaching the top of the Chinese cuisine industry and the prejudice and discrimination she experienced as a female chef. She shares her experience of going undercover as the youngest kitchen worker at a Chinese restaurant in Chengdu, China, on tvN's 'Undercover Chef,' along with episodes from the spin-off 'Undercover Chef: A Friend from Afar.'

After completing about 600 performances in Korea, she received a Broadway offer in 2022, and she detailed how she underwent 50 days of intensive training at her own expense to overcome the language barrier, as well as submitting audition videos and dealing with visa issues. Recalling that time, she said, "If I had studied like that back then, maybe I would have gotten into a SKY university." She added, "It felt like my dream came looking for me and knocked on my door," offering a message of comfort to those who have given up on their dreams.

This episode will feature Ivy's Broadway version of the 'Chicago' stage, J Black's various performances, and Chef Jung Ji-sun's special stories.
