[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Thanks to the performances of Cha Seung-won, Yoo Hae-jin, and Son Ho-jun, the first episode of tvN's 'Three Meals a Day: Fishing Village 5,' which aired on the 1st, recorded an average nationwide viewership rating of 9.3% and a peak of 11.2% (Nielsen Korea, paid households). This is the highest household rating in the same time slot, including terrestrial channels.

In the broadcast, Yoo Hae-jin, Cha Seung-won, and Son Ho-jun began their new island life. Despite the cloudy weather and the absence of any convenience facilities nearby from the first day, the three made viewers laugh by saying, "Without rough waves, no great sailor can emerge."

As soon as they entered the Three Meals House, they quickly surveyed the house and the garden. Afterwards, they each found their own tasks. Son Ho-jun lit a fire to warm the room, Cha Seung-won started making kimchi, and Yoo Hae-jin fired up the stove for lunch.

In particular, the three worked together to complete sujebi (hand-torn noodle soup) while getting soaked by the rain. Viewers who watched the long-awaited return of Three Meals a Day: Fishing Village responded warmly to the natural and simple scenes.

The scenes of Yoo Hae-jin and Son Ho-jun flipping rocks to harvest abalone raised expectations for the upcoming meals on the Three Meals table.
