DIVULGES
SECRETS
IN
PAIK’S SPIRIT

Many of Lee Joon Gi’s global fans miss the superstar’s presence on the screen and on social media. Has he been planning to hide away like in 2019? The gorgeous actor had promised his fans that he would star in either a television series or a film once a year. It was disappointing that he broke his promise in 2019. Is he doing exactly the same thing this year?
But, the good news is that Lee
will appear on Netflix’s upcoming show, Paik’s Spirit. In the food-related
variety series, Baek Jong-won, a leading celebrity chef and restaurant entrepreneur,
meets up with famous personalities who represent the various sectors of Korean society
and engages them in stimulating conversations about life and other
interesting topics while tasting food and drinking soju as well as beer. Paik
is an alternative spelling of Baek's family name.
The host of the Netflix
series has a wealth of experience as a professional food expert as well as an
entertainer as he has been hosting many cooking shows. He is also
reported to have 26 restaurant franchises with 1,299 branches across the
country.
The show is scheduled to be released on Netflix and will be available for streaming in more than 190 countries around the world on 1 October 2021.
In the trailer, viewers notice that the obligatory preliminary greetings have put the megastar so much at ease that he has relaxed and dropped his defences, thus making him vulnerable to what they think is an unexpected turn of events.
Viewers are certain that Baek, the
smiling and friendly host, is just waiting patiently to pounce on his
delicious guest but first, he toys with his delightful food.
Baek is merciless towards the superstar
when the latter least expects it. Lee’s face twists into a grimace when he sips the
awful alcoholic drink offered by Baek.
Then, the ruthless Baek strikes. He brutally
interrogates Lee, who is helpless by then after one too many.
‘You think that you’re not meant to get
married?’ One isn’t sure about the actual
conversation but the question posed is definitely not an idle but carefully
designed one.
The super effective direct questioning
technique is two-pronged; first, to wreak havoc on the actor, who is helpless
and mentally woozy by then, and second, to arouse the insatiable curiosity of
the viewers, particularly that of Lee’s fans.
Lee Joon Gi seems to have easily divulged
the possibility that he might not marry for the time being, ‘I might
remain single for a while.’
   Many of Lee's Korean and global fans must be
celebrating.
But, don’t be too happy. In order to understand what he is actually saying, one has to watch the Netflix show. Lee seems to have shared other secrets too. Is Lee Joon Gi’s segment the first in the series or does one have
to wait a bit longer?
