Chef Yoon Nam-no makes his first appearance as a listener on SBS’s "Tails of Tales" and immediately steals the show.
The April 2 episode dives into “The World’s Best Killer(?): The Murderer and the Manipulator,” a case about a heinous criminal who targeted society’s most vulnerable while chasing a twisted dream of becoming the world’s greatest killer. Joining Yoon as listeners are fromis_9’s Song Hayoung and actor Park Hyo-joo.
Despite it being his "Tails of Tales" debut, Yoon goes full throttle. Set to open his own restaurant in April, he’s handed a “make tteok-kochi sauce” mission ― and reveals his secret recipe without hesitation. He whips up a sauce with just soy sauce and oligosaccharide, then adds mayo, red pepper flakes, and sesame seeds, finishing the street-food favorite in a flash. Host Jang Sung-kyu can’t stop drooling, raving, “This is so good,” as he polishes off every skewer on the spot.
After the snack break, Jang sets the tone: “Today’s story asks, ‘What happens when you cook up a person’s entire life with lies?’”
This case centers on a killer who preyed on the weak ― even those who trusted him. When the murderer’s bizarre motive is revealed, every listener bristles with anger. He shocks police by saying, “I wanted to be the coolest killer in the world,” then claims a “world-famous serial killer” ordered the hits ― a confession that sounds unreal. The true identity of that so-called global puppet master stuns everyone.
Yoon turns into a razor-sharp sleuth, matching Detective Conan-level instincts. Seeing the crime scene, he guesses, “Feels like someone the victim knew,” then asks, “Is that really blood?” and correctly spots that the stains aren’t blood ― a detail that leaves Jang Sung-kyu floored.
As the collusion between the murderer and the manipulator comes to light, Yoon erupts in anger ― then grows emotional thinking of the victims. “I can’t stop crying. I’m in shock ― it feels like getting hit in the head,” he says, voice shaking.
fromis_9’s Song Hayoung also fights back tears, saying, “It’s a reality more dramatic than a movie ― and it hurts.” Park Hyo-joo can’t contain her fury, declaring, “They’re not even human.”
The full story of the killer who targeted the weak ― and the manipulator who gaslit him ― along with their infuriating cruelty, will be revealed on "Tails of Tales" on the 2nd at 10:20 p.m.
