While watching chef David Lee, known as the 'Meat Gangster,' discipline his staff, Yunho pressed the quick-response button, saying, "This is a bit scary." He then disclosed, "When I get angry, I suddenly start speaking formally," explaining, "In this situation, I would say, 'I think there might be something you need to say at this moment?'" This polite yet firm expression of anger astonished everyone. Kim Sook commented, "This is scary too," expressing her awe at Yunho's ability to intimidate with polite language.

Yunho's captivating performance, marked by his special lessons and surprising anger management skills, will be fully revealed in the upcoming episode of ‘The Manager’.
