Singer and actor Kim Dong-jun is stepping into YouTube content by joining hands with Japanese chef Koji.

After debuting with the group ZE:A in 2010, Kim Dong-jun is starting new activities through this project.

The name of the channel opened by the two is ‘Kodongyeojido’. It is a name combining Koji's 'Ko', Kim Dong-jun's 'Dong', and 'Yeojido' from Daedongyeojido.

On this channel, they will travel across the country together to introduce seasonal ingredients and regional foods, presenting local coexistence content that provides support to areas in need of promotion and assistance through cooking.

The teaser video captures the two having a conversation ahead of their travels. Kim Dong-jun said, "I am looking forward to seeing what happens while traveling with the chef and what kind of dishes we can eat."

The two plan to continue their stories by cooking directly at travel destinations or exploring local food cultures. Kim Dong-jun played the role of Jeon Se-gye in the ENA drama 'New Recruit 4: Sabotage' and will hold the '2026 Golden Moon Concert in Tokyo' in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan, on November 6. In the second half of the year, he plans to continue activities spanning music and acting, including a singer comeback and his next work. Chef Koji operates a high-end omakase specialty restaurant in Korea and also runs the personal YouTube channel 'Koji TV [The Sangsaeng]'.
