Chef Ahn, who also visited Muan Airport on December 30 last year and delivered 200 servings of wrapped gimbap himself, said "I was also unfamiliar here and didn't know how to help you. So I packed kimbap and came here, but the bereaved families who were eating it were thirsty and said, "It's delicious." That was the most resonant and touching to me" he said.

Then "So about 40 people are continuously boiling abalone porridge because they thought it would be good for the chefs to do it together."Originally, I was going to prepare rice cake soup, but I chose abalone porridge as a food that can make me choke even a little bit and cheer up."," he said.




Chef Ahn said, `When you have a big accident or a hard time, it is the people's constant interest and affection that helps you the most. I hope the people will continue to show interest and affection," he said.

In addition to Chef Ahn, at Muan Airport, Lee Young-sook, Choi Ji-hyung, Baek Ji-joon, and Song Ha-slam, who appeared in 『Black and White Cook』, comforted the bereaved families by serving food together.

Chef Ahn said, "My only talent was cooking, so I packed kimbap and went there." He said, "I wanted to go there, but when I went there, I felt sad."He confessed.

In particular, Chef Ahn, who said that there was a producer who was on the show with the victims of the accident, said "It's unfortunate and frustrating."," he said, expressing his sorrow.

In the meantime, "I only have the ability to make food, so I think if this skill can be helpful, I should be supportive by my side. While you're there, I'm going to visit you continuously and be with you."
