YouTube Star Heebab Returns with New Flavor and Fun in Jeonju
The beloved E Channel YouTube show ‘Saturday Night My Treat 2’ is back with a brand-new episode set to premiere on April 26. Known for blending mukbang (eating shows) with candid conversations, the latest episode follows YouTube foodie Heebab as she makes her way through the trendy streets of Gaegeuridang-gil in Jeonju.
Street Encounters and a ‘Tank Boy’ Twist
From the start, Heebab finds herself in the middle of unexpected encounters with Gen Z passersby — high schoolers and fresh twenty-somethings who throw her for a loop. Yet, in true Heebab style, she quickly warms up the crowd with her signature humor.
The scene-stealer of the day is undoubtedly the self-proclaimed ‘Jeonju Tank Boy,’ who humorously introduces himself with the line: “At least one of my calves is made of gukbap (Korean soup and rice).” The charismatic local even shares his experience appearing on UFC star Jung Chan-sung’s (aka ‘The Korean Zombie’) talent show, bringing nonstop laughs.
Romance, Real Talk, and Rainy-Day Reveals
Tank Boy’s sass reaches new heights when he brags about his girlfriend, referring to her as a ‘local Jo Bo-ah’—comparing her to the popular K-drama actress. The chemistry between him and Heebab is electric, keeping viewers chuckling throughout their quirky back-and-forth.
Things get more intimate when Heebab opens up about her own love life. “There was someone at the network I liked,” she confesses. “I’m the type to make the first move. If I message someone, that means I’m interested.” Her honesty adds a new layer of relatability, endearing her even more to fans.
Taste Explosion with Jeonju’s Finest Eats
In true mukbang spirit, Heebab doesn’t hold back when it comes to food. While enjoying yeonpotang (octopus hot pot), she declares, “I’m going to drink until my eyes flip back!” Her appetite is matched only by her storytelling skills, making each bite of Jeonju’s local delicacies a highlight.
The episode teases more fun-filled interactions and mouthwatering moments that await in the full broadcast of ‘Saturday Night My Treat 2,’ airing every Saturday at 5 p.m. KST on E Channel’s YouTube channel, ‘Ebapsesik’.
Netizen Awards Update: Heebab in the Top 5
Outside the show, Heebab continues to make waves in online popularity. She’s currently ranked 4th in the April Netizen Awards for favorite celeb, with 138 votes. While she’s trailing behind characters like Pengsoo and creators like Pani Bottle and Dex, her solid fan base is clearly growing.
Final Thoughts
Heebab’s unfiltered charm, whether chatting about love or savoring hot pot, transforms simple meals into heartwarming experiences. With her latest Jeonju adventure, she once again proves that food connects people, one spoonful and one story at a time.
