SBS's new entertainment show 「Jungle Rice」, which will premiere on the 13th, is a food and culture exchange program that spreads Korean food cooked with local ingredients obtained in the jungle. Lee Seung-yoon, Seo In-guk, and Yooi became jungle mates along with Ryu Soo-young, who recently gave a lecture on Korean food in California and was also recognized as a chef.
Vanuatu, a country where primitive civilization remains, is where they left for food and culture exchanges. It is an island on the Banks Islands located in the northernmost part of the small country, which consists of about 80 islands.
Seo In-guk and Yui showed pride in 'swim' at the members' pre-meeting. "Aren't you a swimmer. I heard that my nickname is Incheon mermaidWhen he said ", Yui learned how to free dive while shaking his hands. Anyway, I have to get the ingredients. I've been practicing free diving a few times." Seo In-guk also shot a swimming movie. Ulsan Dolphin…"The self-wandering sea drew high expectations.
Although the flight reservation was completed, the airline went bankrupt a week before departure, causing an unprecedented situation in which the plane ticket booked was broken down in the air. 'I have to go to Vanuatu somehowWith a sense of mission, ' started a journey of about 40 hours after traveling around numerous stops.
First, the members arrived in Vanuatu after two stops and a 20-hour flight. When I got off the plane, I headed to the central market to eat in Vanuatu, where it was night. I had my first meal with Chinese-style beef stir-fried and tuna steak. While watching the cooking process, Ryu Soo-young learned to use Chinese soy sauce and oyster sauce. He said "There has been a history of immigration in China since 100 years ago. That's why they sell a lot of oyster sauce-based food. "It was a shame. How delicious is our red pepper paste and soy sauce?" he said, showing his passion for spreading Korean food.
The members who tasted the local food showed satisfaction. Food made with only local ingredients has a less irritating taste than the salty city food. The production team made Ryu Soo-young's shoulders heavy by predicting the members who were eating a storm.

Ryu Soo-young cooked with a positive mind, shouting "If you don't have it, if you don't have it, you don't have it". Ryu Soo-young, who made fried food with red sea bream, was excited to use Maniok starch powder, a local ingredient. As a result, I could see his eyes shining when he bought ingredients.
Ryu Soo-young's first jungle rice is octopus ramen with chili sauce and red sea bream broth in red sea bream fried with cassava starch. "The fried clothes are so unique.", "Ginger is the best thing to do", "Chili sauce is so good" is evaluated, and the secret to making the ?c-yum-goong taste in octopus ramen was found to be peanut powder, drawing attention.
I checked out in a hurry the next morning. Even the domestic flight was canceled, and the final destination to enter by boat was Tasmate Village, which is a two-hour light plane ride to Solar.
The members, who stayed at Solar Airport for a while before boarding, presented aged tuna rice balls to the residents. While not being able to eat unfamiliar food, the native who took a bite in the container gave a thumbs up, saying "Nice". Following this, the residents who tasted it also nodded. Ryu Soo-young said "Food should be based on mutual trust. When I saw them enjoying the food, I thought, 'Those people believe in me.'," he said with a smile.
The natives and children cheered and welcomed the island as it approached the island by boat. At the appearance of pure people, Yuyi "The children welcomed us too much. The faces of the friends were too pure. My heart fluttered a bit." Ryu Soo-young responded to their enthusiastic welcome with a dive first. Greeting with a high-five, he enjoyed the peace, saying, `I wanted to show my child this peace.' At the same time, he revealed the reason why he obtained it, saying, `It's so strange to welcome someone unknown, but I wanted to tell you that I'm glad to see you.'
It is a place where the islands are bartering. The jungle rice team brought fish to this place where fish is unexpectedly valuable because there are no fishing boats. With this, the members climbed the hill leading to the village. It's a difficult road, but we held the hands of the residents and joined them with support.
