Son Ye Jin Reveals Hyun Bin's 2.5 Million Won O Manuka Honey on TV Show

Actress Son Ye Jin recently garnered significant attention by revealing a "precious honey" gifted to her husband Hyun Bin during her appearance on JTBC's 'Please Take Care of My Refrigerator.' This particular honey, reportedly valued at an astonishing 2.5 million won for a 250g bottle, became a major talking point. Son Ye Jin humorously admitted to bringing it to the show without Hyun Bin's knowledge, and its tasting by the MCs and chefs sparked admiration for its quality.

The honey in question is identified as the 'Premium Reserve Grand Cru UMF 32+ / MGO 1800+ 250g' from Ō MĀNUKA, a premium Manuka honey brand from New Zealand. This specific grade of Manuka honey constitutes less than 0.003% of all Manuka honey produced globally, with only 150 bottles ever made worldwide, highlighting its extreme rarity. Its unique and luxurious packaging, crafted from handmade glass and wood, also contributed to its distinctive appearance.

Bloggers noted Son Ye Jin's surprised reaction to the honey's rich taste upon trying it for the first time on air, and Ahn Jung Hwan's jocular apology to Hyun Bin. While expressing astonishment at the 2.5 million won price tag, they also shared their fascination with discovering the existence of such a rare and high-quality honey.
