Actress Go Hyun-jung shocked viewers by taking on pork for the first time since childhood — and revealing an unexpected charm.
On May 7, a video featuring Go was uploaded to Davichi member Kang Min-kyung's YouTube channel. In it, Go and Kang visited a frozen pork belly restaurant serving 'naengsam' (thinly sliced frozen samgyeopsal). Go had often said, "I really want to try naengsam," and Kang personally made it happen.
Go also opened up about why she hadn't eaten pork since she was young. "Around age 10, I tried it once and was shocked. After that, I never touched it," she confessed, revealing a long-standing trauma.
With a tense look, she took her first bite. "It's not as bad as I thought," she said. "There's no smell at all." Moments later, she surprised everyone again: "It's so good."
She laughed, saying, "I can't believe I went over 50 years without eating this." Go added, "If it's naengsam, I think I can eat it from now on." Kang Min-kyung was just as stunned: "You used to be so afraid of the pork smell, and now you're eating it like this."
By breaking a long-held aversion and embracing a new flavor, Go Hyun-jung delivered a small but striking change — a refreshingly fun moment for fans.
