SHINee's Key Showcases Chef-Level Cooking Skills in 3.8 Billion Won Luxury Home

Key from SHINee showcased chef-level cooking skills in a video posted on his account on the 7th, filmed in the kitchen of his luxury home worth 3.8 billion won. In the video, Key meticulously prepared ingredients including Italian parsley, garlic, and fresh clams before expertly preparing vongole pasta comparable to high-end restaurant quality. His culinary expertise was evident from ingredient preparation to sophisticated plating completed entirely by himself. Key had previously demonstrated his passion for cooking by appearing on MBC's 'I Live Alone,' where he publicly shared his process of passing the practical exam for Western cuisine cooking skills. His 3.8 billion won leasehold apartment was revealed during that broadcast and garnered significant attention. After taking a hiatus following the 'syringe aunt' controversy in December of last year, Key made his comeback with SHINee's complete lineup in May, successfully completing concerts at Seoul's Olympic Park KSPO Dome and Saitama's Veltins Dome in Japan.
