Son Na-eun Becomes the Mascot 'Nani' of 'Hotel Goblin'... Personally Brought in a Fish-shaped Bread Machine

Actress Son Na-eun is captivating global guests as the mascot 'Nani' of the MBC Every1 variety show 〈Hotel Goblin〉.

〈Hotel Goblin〉 is a real variety show under the concept of 'a hotel that operates for just one week and then disappears,' featuring Master Go Du-shim, Kwon Yul, Kim Dong-jun, Lee Dae-hwi, and Jeon Seong-gon working together as a team. Among them, Son Na-eun is active as the mascot responsible for the hotel's vitality and food and beverage services. Through her chaotic hotelier challenges unfolding at a Hanok hotel in Jeju, she proves her unique lovely charm and sincerity, showcasing the essence of a 'growing hotelier.'

The most notable aspect of Son Na-eun's performance this season is the meticulous preparation process of the 'Welcome Food.' Known as a 'tangerine lover' who dreams of running a tangerine farm in Jeju, she selected fish-shaped bread, a representative winter snack in Korea, along with Jeju tangerine juice for the menu.

In particular, Son Na-eun surprised the cast by showing her enthusiasm by personally bringing in a fish-shaped bread machine from Seoul. After intense practice, the golden-brown fish-shaped bread impressed Master Go Du-shim, who praised it, saying, "It's amazing," and received a perfect score from her colleagues, signaling a pleasant start to the service.

Son Na-eun's performance shone not only in the kitchen but also at the front desk. Based on her fluent English skills, she displayed her experience by naturally exchanging jokes with foreign guests, helping to ease their tension. When a foreign guest who tasted Son Na-eun's welcome food exclaimed, "It tastes like home," she humorously explained, "There’s not actually any fish inside this," making the scene burst into laughter. Additionally, she effectively explained traditional Korean elements like 'Goblin' in an easy-to-understand manner and took charge of room guidance, fulfilling her role as a global mascot.

Amid the relentless hotel tasks, Son Na-eun is flexibly resolving unexpected situations while collaborating with her team members. Her warm smile that makes people comfortable and her sincere attitude towards guests have been praised for creating a warm connection that transcends borders.

〈Hotel Goblin〉 can be seen every Tuesday at 8:30 PM on MBC Every1.
