Yook is a member of the boy group BtoB and is known for his roles in dramas Who Are You: School 2015, The Village: Achiara’s Secret, and Guardian: The Lonely and Great God.

Pinkies up, cheese lovers.

On Saturday, the Conrad Manila hotel will host an artisanal cheese fair with cheeses flown all the way from France. So fancy.

Apart from more than 60 artisanal cheeses, attendees will also be given four glasses of wine — because what’s cheese without some vino right?

Tickets are priced at PHP2,000 (US$37.37) per person.
