JTBC’s hit program 'Naengjanggo-reul Butakhae' has put Chef Yoon Nam-no back in the spotlight, and it’s going viral for a shocking twist: a so-called “health” dish built on butter. The video dropped on March 18, 2026, on the JTBCVoyage YouTube channel, instantly igniting debate.
In the clip, Chef Yoon showcases his signature style with butter-forward cooking that amped up viewers’ anticipation. While some praised it as relatively healthy, others voiced serious concerns over the heavy use of butter. According to the video’s description, the goal was to generate even more buzz than the recent 'butter tteok' (butter rice cake) trend.
The show continues to captivate thanks to Chef Yoon’s distinctive approach and the fiercely divided reactions to his dishes. In this episode in particular, the sheer amount of butter has split opinions between the chef’s judgment and viewers’ expectations, fueling even hotter discussion.
Compared to earlier creations, the new 'Butterddung MK. II' is set to return in an even bolder form, helping sustain the program’s steady popularity. That mounting anticipation is becoming a defining part of 'Naengjanggo-reul Butakhae'’s unique appeal. (Related article: JTBC media report.)
