Lin·Hwang Chi-yeul·Jin-se Cho, Gunsan Gourmet Trip 'Mukbang'... What Changes After Lin's Divorce?

Lyn Hwang Chi-yeul is set to appear on SBS’s ″My Ugly Duckling,″ showing her gourmet trip to Gunsan with Jo Jin-se. Known as the ″entertainment industry’s representative big eater,″ Lyn went on a day trip to Gunsan with Jo Jin-se, who revealed that he is a big eater who can eat nine bowls of rice with pork belly. The three visited a restaurant to try Gunsan’s specialty, spicy japchae. When the bright red broth-covered spicy japchae was served, the studio reacted with comments like ″That looks interesting,″ ″It looks like bibim noodles,″ and ″It’s torture.″ Then, Lyn visited a hotteok shop that has been run by the same family for three generations since 1943 and shared her own mukbang tips. Lyn continued to move around looking for more food, and the final location of the gourmet trip will be revealed on the broadcast. In the show, Hwang Chi-yeul recalled meeting Lyn for the first time over 20 years ago and said, ″I heard rumors that Lyn was really scary to juniors.″ In response, Lyn said she took ″this action″ before rude juniors got scolded elsewhere. The truth behind the rumor that Lyn was the ″discipline leader of the music industry″ who made Hwang Chi-yeul nervous can be confirmed on the broadcast. Also, the story of Hwang Chi-yeul’s long period of obscurity was revealed. After moving to Seoul, Hwang Chi-yeul lived in a semi-basement room of about 10 pyeong, survived on cheap powdered soup mixed with rice, and shared experiences of moving from one real estate to another just to drink coffee. Although Hwang Chi-yeul couldn’t date much due to lack of money, the secret to events that melted his girlfriend’s heart was also disclosed. Lyn married Lee Soo, a member of the group MC the Max who is the same age, in 2014 but divorced last August after 11 years of marriage. After the divorce, Lyn was shown living in the bathroom, singing, reading, and eating snacks. Lyn said, ″It’s warm, but actually, it’s the smallest space in the house, but when I’m there, I feel very comfortable. People worry a lot about cleanliness, but I clean the bathroom once a day. Still, it’s dirty, hygiene-wise. Somehow, it’s comfortable there.″ She also revealed that she mainly lives in the bathroom due to panic disorder, saying, ″If it suddenly gets spacious, I think I’ll have a panic attack.″
