JAKARTA - The Korean drama The Law Cafe has just aired this week. However, one of the scenes has been highlighted by one of the top brass of the World Health Organization (WHO). What is it?

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus as WHO general director uploaded one of the scenes played by Lee Seung Gi.

In that scene, the character Kim Jung Ho (Lee Seung Gi) was about to eat with two women near his building. Jung Ho was seen staring at all the food.

"I didn't make the food so salty this time!" said one of the mothers seeing Kim Jung Ho's expression.

WHO recommends not eating more than 2,000 mg of sodium every day. That's about 5 grams of salt," Kim Jung Ho explained.

Then Kim Jung Ho demonstrated that his hands were spooning salt.

It's equivalent to one teaspoon of salt. But we also eat foods like badminton and seafood which are all high in sodium. So overall we consume twice what WHO recommends! said Kim Jung Ho.

He also explained that the danger of consuming excessive salt could cause disease. The scene then received appreciation from Tedros Adhanom through social media.

Thank you for mentioning @WHO's recommendations regarding salt consumption. #LeeSeungGi and @MyloveKBS in your latest drama #TheLawCafe! wrote Tedros Adhanom.

"Agree. #LessSalt (lack of salt) is better for our health - no more than one spoon per day," he continued.
