On March 7, MONSTA X unveiled the latest episode of their reality series 'MONMUKGO' titled 'EP.33 MONMUKGO Returns (몬먹고 리턴즈)' on their official YouTube channel. This episode marked the return of Joohoney, who has completed his military service. As soon as he was discharged, Joohoney was playfully ambushed by the production team while still in his military uniform, expressing his surprise at being suddenly 'captured' but showcasing his enduring sense of humor.

Joohoney shared his thoughts on the show, stating, "For me, 'MONMUKGO' is a source of comfort. It feels like a field where I can play freely. I feel really good to be back in that field. I want to make the most of my screen time." He also mentioned that he feels a renewed sense of eagerness, akin to that of a rookie.

In this episode, Joohoney teamed up with Minhyuk for a mission called 'Reviving the MONMUKGO Spirit,' starting with a challenge to catch trout with their bare hands. The duo faced difficulties during the fish-catching event, humorously questioning the production team, "Have you guys tried this?" They eventually sought assistance from the crew. Minhyuk offered to cook for the members in exchange for tools, while Joohoney proposed to perform the show's theme song as a trade, leading to their success in the trout-catching mission.

Following this, Shownu, Minhyuk, and Joohoney embarked on their second mission at a strawberry farm, where they aimed to pick exactly 514 grams of strawberries. The trio put in considerable effort to weigh the strawberries accurately, even breaking into a dance to the 'Strawberry Song' to boost their spirits.

To succeed in their mission, Shownu had to propose something to exchange with the production team, leading to anticipation for new content from 'MONMUKGO.' The episode concluded without revealing whether they successfully completed the strawberry mission, leaving fans eager for the next installment.

The reality series 'MONMUKGO,' featuring Joohoney alongside Shownu, Minhyuk, and I.M, airs every Friday at 8:30 PM KST on MONSTA X's official YouTube channel.

In the latest episode of ‘Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 2’ (전현무계획2), which aired on March 7, 2025, hosts Jeon Hyun-moo (전현무), Kwak Tube (곽튜브), and actress Ji Yeo-eun (지예은) showcased their delightful chemistry during a food trip in Yeongdeok (영덕). The 20th episode of this real-life food documentary, co-produced by MBN and Channel S, featured the trio exploring local eateries in Yeongdeok, starting with the famous Andong ribs (안동 갈비). They savored various dishes, including Kwak Tube's recommended Yeongdeok seafood restaurant and a budget-friendly crab spot, providing viewers with both entertainment and valuable culinary insights.

After finishing their Andong food tour, Jeon Hyun-moo expressed his desire to visit Yeongdeok, saying, "I was planning to go to another area, but I can't stop thinking about Andong ribs." The duo then visited a carefully selected rib restaurant, where they enjoyed Andong-style garlic ribs, seasoned only with garlic and sesame oil, and were impressed by the taste of the garlic marinated ribs with soy sauce. After clearing their last dish in Andong, Jeon declared, "The next stop is Yeongdeok!" He also introduced Ji Yeo-eun as their special guest for the day, describing her as a vibrant star actively participating in variety shows.

Upon meeting Ji Yeo-eun, Kwak Tube shared his knowledge of a local restaurant that changes its menu based on the seafood caught that day, showcasing his charm. The trio ordered dishes including a stew made with flatfish (미주구리) and the popular pork stir-fry (돼지 두루치기).

While enjoying their meal, Kwak Tube posed a surprise question to Ji Yeo-eun about which of the three popular MCs—Yoo Jae-suk (유재석), Shin Dong-yup (신동엽), or Jeon Hyun-moo—she would prefer to work with if they were to compete in the same time slot. Ji Yeo-eun replied, "I feel comfortable with Yoo Jae-suk," which led to a playful moment of jealousy from Jeon Hyun-moo, who jokingly lamented, "At least pretend to think about it!" After their meal, Ji Yeo-eun insisted on trying the famous crab in Yeongdeok, prompting Jeon to lead them to a highly recommended crab restaurant known for its value.

The restaurant, located near a harbor known only to locals, was not in the popular crab street of Yeongdeok. Upon entering, Ji Yeo-eun excitedly declared, "I just want to eat crab!" This prompted Jeon Hyun-moo to humorously comment that he felt like he was with his daughter, expressing a sudden desire to have a child. The group enjoyed a remarkable crab dish priced at 30,000 won each, showcasing incredible value. During the meal, Jeon asked Ji Yeo-eun about her ideal type, to which she responded, "I like someone who is kind, witty, and shares my sense of humor." Kwak Tube teased her about her rumored love interest, Kang Hoon (강훈), leading to a light-hearted discussion about their relationship.

As the food trip concluded, the trio topped off their meal with crab shell fried rice and flatfish, savoring every last bite. Kwak Tube praised the experience, stating, "I've been to many restaurants while filming ‘Jeon Hyun-moo Plan,’ but this one is number one for happiness," to which Ji Yeo-eun playfully replied, "It's because I'm here!" 

The Yeongdeok food trip with Ji Yeo-eun wrapped up, and the next episode, featuring a special guest for the 39th food trip titled ‘A Round of Beef,’ will air on March 14 at 9:10 PM on MBN and Channel S.

In related news, rumors about Jeon Hyun-moo's relationship with Hong Joo-yeon (홍주연) began on KBS2’s ‘Boss’s Ears Are Donkey Ears’ when a prank led to speculation about their marriage. Jeon Hyun-moo later clarified that many of the rumors were untrue, and Hong Joo-yeon expressed her surprise at the attention, stating she wants to show her true self gradually.

On March 7, a new video titled "More Spicy Soup than Catfish" was released on the 'DoJang TV' channel featuring the couple Jang Yoon-jung (장윤정) and Do Kyung-wan (도경완). During their visit to a spicy soup restaurant, Jang revealed, "I had never tried Pyongyang cold noodles before marriage. After marrying, I started eating it because my spouse loves it. But he never lets me have things like chicken feet. Just the other day, I ate chicken feet by myself." 

Do Kyung-wan responded, "But why did you eat it during our dating? Let’s have a little inquiry here. You never called me 'oppa' (older brother). When I asked, 'What food do you like the most, Yoon-jung?' you said, 'I love chicken feet and gopchang (grilled intestines).' I thought we really clicked. You used to eat it a lot, and I thought you were cool and laid-back, so I wanted to impress you. On our wedding night, instead of going on our honeymoon, I ordered chicken feet at the hotel to be cool and relaxed. But you were disappointed by that," he shared, drawing attention. 

Do Kyung-wan recounted their wedding night, saying, "We stayed at a hotel in front of Seoul City Hall after the ceremony. Jang Yoon-jung said, 'Of course we sleep together; we are a couple.' After the ceremony, we fell asleep, and I woke up around 9 PM. I was looking at the room service menu, thinking about ordering cheese plates and wine. I was going to ask you what you wanted, but you came out and said, 'I slept well; I ordered what I wanted.'" 

Jang Yoon-jung defended herself, saying, "I really wanted to look good, like 'the same old girl.'" Do Kyung-wan humorously added, "Then, a little later, the chicken feet delivery guy came to the hotel. We almost had chicken feet with him on our wedding night!" 

Jang Yoon-jung questioned, "But why did you pretend to like it during our dating? Shouldn’t you have continued to show interest after we got married? You never did once!" 

Do Kyung-wan cheekily replied, "Well, I got you, didn’t I?" To which Jang Yoon-jung advised, "Ladies, be careful!" eliciting laughter.
