Producing director (PD) Park Hee Yeon of tvN’s “Coffee Friends” shared her thoughts on the show in an interview.

"I do not think that the performers and producers have never made a donation. The appreciation for those who participated in haejun contributions " 

earnest expression yen was really packed this. "We started with the intention of making a small donation, and decided on the menu without a price tag." It was Park Hee-yeon PD who directed cable channel TVN entertainment program 'Coffee Friend'. 

Cable channel TVN entertainment program "Coffee Friend" is a process of running a cafe in Jeju Island by two actors Hyun Seok and Son Ho. A cafe with no price is aimed at the fun (DONATION, Donation to feel pleasure and fun). 

The stamp of Pak PD, which is a strong point of visual beauty, is also clear. From the sensible brunch menu, to the handsome stars such as Yoo Do-yoon, TVXQ, Exo Sehun, Nam Ju-Hyuk, and so on. The entertainment competition is fierce on Friday. Without stimulating episodes, it was the key to stalling 5 ~ 6% audience ratings steadily. 

Pak PD turned the ball to Hyunseok Son. 'Coffee Friends' is a program that extends the same-name donation campaign that was carried out by two people. The two actively participated in the program, from planning to menu development. From Jo Jae-yoon to Nam Ju-hyeok, both of them turned their phones first. Park said, "I thought it would be great if the performers had to renovate the warehouse. The two of them gave the idea first. I fell in love with each other. "

"The chef, Mr. Hyungseok, is a perfectionist. I think the taste of the food and the response of the guests are also important. After a few moments, I had a friendly conversation with the guests as I turned around the hall. Barristine Son Ho - jun is calm. If the order is pushed, it will be embarrassing, but there is no shaking. "The 

reaction of the viewer to the fund amount is mixed. On the sixth day of sales, sales exceeded the record high of 2 million won. Considering that the amount and taste of food, and the price of Jeju Island, which is high in prices, Park PD did not conceal his heart as a director. 

"It is meaningful to experience 'pleasant donation'. Some people have a big sum, and some do not. However, it was because I thought that it was the program's purpose to disclose only the total amount. " 

Pak PD is deeply involved with food arts such as" rice pilgrim "and" street food fighter ". The beginning was the 'Pilgrimage Pilgrim'. Baek Jong-won has a deep connection with the representative of Korea, and naturally deepened his interest in food. Coffee Friends is also the result. "It is an attractive genre, but difficult. Because there are so many, there is a burden of differentiation, "he said. 

Coffee Friends, a total of 10 episodes, is about three times ahead of the end. He called for expectations for a new menu and a new part-time job. 

"The new menu of Mr. Baek Jong-won and Mr. JoJun continues. I wonder if all the part-time students will show other charms. The change of the performers who have accumulated know-how is also the point of watching later. "
