[A warm spring morning when the sun was shining bright...]
[We made a special visit to the Daejeon Expo Science Park.]
This is cool.
- Nice to see you. - Here comes our actor.
What's that on your ear?
Whatever my stylist prepares for me...
Since we're filming at my hometown, Daejeon.
Do you remember coming here when you were young?
I've never been here.
Seriously, there were tons of people standing in line over here at the time.
Yes, yes.
If you let go of your parent's hands by accident, you became a missing child.
This was really a thing back then. Look, it's Kumdori.
The mascot, Kumdori.
If you go over there, there is a place where you can do a virtual experience.
Hello.
So what brings us here, Director?
Daejeon is right in the middle of our country...
And is the most convenient transportation hub.
It's the best.
We'll start our episode here.
Especially for this episode...
We have a guest who will be with us for two days.
[Smiling all of a sudden.]
- It must be a woman. - It's finally happening.
Since Min Kyung was here last time...
- Actresses, actresses. - The bar is higher now.
It's spring now...
It must be a spring lady. Spring lady!
[Welcome, Spring Lady!]
It's a special episode every week for Joo Hyuk!
- He's already acting shy. - No, no.
I'm just making myself presentable.
Please come out!
[Someone on par with Min Kyung will grace us with her appearance.]
[A male guest appears...]
Why are you here again?
[Turns their back...]
Guys, seriously?
[Treated as a fifth wheel...]
What are you going to do about Joo Hyuk!
You said you didn't want to come out again!
You said you never want to do this again!
[Last fall... The 'Best Autumn Meal' competition...]
[Raymon Kim participated in a fierce cooking competition with Sam Kim.]
[But... Sam Kim became the ultimate victor.]
[He is not welcomed...]
He can be the invisible man.
Now, back to the Spring Lady!
Guest!
Are you all ignoring him?
[Is somebody here?]
[Oh dear...]
- There's another guest! - Spring lady, please come out!
[Please, please...]
[Let it be a female guest...]
[Umm...]
[Who is this?]
Chef Kang Leo.
Why are you here?
[Second guest, Chef Kang Leo]
Do you always cook freestyle like you rap? [Original Celebrity Chef, Kang Leo]
You should learn how to cook well first. [Sharp charisma]
What country's food is this? [Biting remarks]
[When it comes to cooking, he is brutal.]
Hello.
[Invisible Man No. 2, Chef Kang Leo]
[Let's not try too hard...]
[This place is known to be brutal for male guests...]
It was very difficult for us to have these two top chefs join us today...
Let's just have one more guest.
[These guys don't know when to quit.]
Please wait a bit... We're really happy to see you but...
You didn't even acknowledge my greetings...
- What are you talking about. - Chef, we'll just check one more...
The next person is slightly different from these two.
[Expectations are rising.]
Anticipating just once more...
Spring guest, please come out!
[Please, at least this time...]
- Who is it? - Who is that?
[Umm... Who are you?]
[Excuse me, but who are you?]
Who are you?
- How dare you... - He's the best in sweet and sour pork.
[Third guest, Chef Lee Yeon Bok]
[The master chef of Chinese cuisine, with 43 years of experience.]
Hello. I'm Lee Yeon Bok, a Chinese cuisine chef.
[We apologize for not recognizing you.]
I've been doing this... for 43 years.
- 43 years? - 43 years...
And our... Chef Kang. He's really famous.
I've heard of him a lot, Chef Kang Leo.
He's been taught by the famous chefs abroad... for example, Ramsay Gordon.
- It's Gordon Ramsay. - Yes, of course. Gordon Ramsay.
Gordon Ramsay and who was that... Saint-Exupery?
Pierre Gagnaire, Pierre Koffmann, Jean-Georges...
Yes, Jean-Georges!
Jangjorim?
He's currently learning Korean royal cuisine...
under the Human National Treasure, Ms. Han Bok Nyuh.
- They're all amazing guests. - Yes.
It's an honor. [Belated welcome]
[Umm... sure.]
We'll move on.
[There's another guest?] There's more?
A guest... that will help us with our special episode...
[Really?] Please come out.
Are we getting one guest per person and working as a team of two?
[Fourth guest, Actor Kim Min Jun]
Why are they all male guests?
Min Jun cooks as well?
What can you do well?
- There must be a reason. - Are we supposed to cook or something?
Look, they're all chefs.
I saw them from afar... and thought they were Shin Seung Hoon...
And Kim Jo Han from the group Solid.
[Doppelganger of Shin Seung Hoon]
[Doppelganger of Kim Jo Han]
So I thought, 'Oh, the singers were invited.'
Kim Jo Han, Shin Seung Hoon... Then who did you think he was?
The coach of the National wrestling team...
[Doppelganger of An Han Bong Coach]
So I thought it was a unique mix of people.
I was thinking, 'Why am I here?'
Since you're here, please introduce yourself to the viewers.
Hello, I'm Kim Min Jun.
I'm not quite sure why I'm here.
I heard it was '2 Days, 1 Night'...
I just heard that part.
You don't really fit in with '2 Days, 1 Night'...
He's wearing something similar to Jong Min...
but the vibe is totally different.
Slightly different fashion, a totally different feeling.
His looks like kid's fashion.
The vibe is so different.
You're... interested in cooking?
I'm very interested...
but in real life, there isn't much opportunity.
But you're... good at it.
I've lost my touch.
Nowadays, even if I get an opportunity, I try to wriggle myself out of it.
[Speechless...]
(He used the word 'yorijori,' which is similar to the word for cooking, 'yori'.)
You guys share the same fashion, so you can be in the same team.
[Strangely, they look good together.]
There's another person who will introduce you...
to a whole new world of cooking.
- How many are there? - It's a male guest again, right?
It's a man. [Depressed]
[We're at a loss for words...]
[Fifth guest, Sam Hammington]
The reaction isn't that great...
[If you were in our shoes, you'd be reacting the same way...]
He was on our rival show until a few weeks ago.
- His heart is still with that army show. - No, that's not true.
Whatever the case, welcome!
Our final guest for this special episode...
Please come out.
- I have no idea what's going on. - What is this?
[A guy comes running out with short strides...]
[Final guest, Jo Se Ho]
[Dumbfounded]
[Dissatisfied...]
- Go back! - Have a good time!
- What is this? - What is this?
[He's excited nonetheless.]
[Started greeting guests with anticipation...]
[Disappointment]
[Anger]
[Confusion]
[Despondent]
[This is... just too much.]
[12 men... A consequence of preferring sons to daughters in the past.]
Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Jo Se Ho, formerly Cabbage.
What brings you here?
I've been invited as a guest...
[His passion is already that of a permanent member.]
I like to cook.
Luxury items suit him better than cooking.
Yes, I like luxury brand goods.
So that I can show off my success....
That's a whole lot of success right there...
He's the 'it' guy these days.
I'm not purchasing them illegally or anything...
People keep asking me why I wear luxury brands...
You're buying them with the money you earned, so who cares.
Someone has to buy them, right?
Three chefs, and three men who enjoy cooking.
As you might have guessed, it's our second Chef Special today.
Following the first episode 'The Best Autumn Meal'...
Today we'll be selecting the 'Best Juansang.'
- 'Juansang?' - What's 'Juansang?'
- Liquor? - Sulsang?
[Juansang - A table set only with liquor and anju (dishes to go with drinks)]
[Makgeolli - The middle class's longtime favorite alcoholic beverage]
[It can only be attained after a long time of care, effort, patience and aging...]
[Our very own liquor, Makgeolli]
[Find the 'Best Juansang' that goes well with Makgeolli.]
You mentioned 'Juansang,' but in the West...
They have this thing called 'marriage,' where they pair food with wine.
In the West, are there also people who start drinking with their meal...
and continue drinking?
- Yes, it continues most of the time. - Huh, it's the same everywhere.
What we'd like to request to you right now is...
Form a group of two, each with a chef and a member.
And then you will go nationwide in search of...
famous, or hidden but amazing, Makgeollis.
He mentioned this in passing, but he said, 'nationwide'...
It was mentioned in passing, but the word 'nationwide' came out.
[The mission is not easy even for the pro chefs...]
[A tough journey towards preparing the best Juansang.]
[A chronicle of their struggles during '2 Day 1 Night']
['The Best Juansang!' Who will be the victor?]
We will now choose partners.
We'll do rock, paper, and scissors, and...
the members will choose their partners.
What if they select us, but we don't want to team up with that person?
There's nothing you can do about that.
We're the guests here.
Who would you reject as your partner?
Kim Joo Hyuk.
I'll be on your team. I'll be on your team.
I'm a bit uneasy around older bros.
Rock-paper-scissors!
[Even the onlookers are anxious.]
Rock-paper-scissors.
[Joo Hyuk wins.]
[The big bro of the big bros.]
You have to take Se Ho.
[Oh me, no, that's not right...]
Well, it's still a competition, so I should go with a chef...
[Yes, you made the right choice, sir.]
[There are only three chefs...]
[Defconn suggests Chef Kang Leo.]
I'm also a bit uneasy around...
[He gets attacked twice...]
Do I look that difficult?
What should I say... I just feel like there's a wall...
You know, like you wouldn't dare enter that sacred territory.
He was in a shop around the Gangnam area...
So I just didn't go in.
[Attacked left and right.]
Then I'll go with someone I've already met. Raymon.
[He doesn't like it?]
[Congratulations!]
- You can refuse. - You can turn me down.
Last time, it was a bit difficult...
He didn't say a word while he was driving!
[During the last episode of Chef Special...]
[Babble, babble...]
It's okay with me.
[Just in case he changes his mind, goes ahead and claps...]
[Kim Joo Hyuk and Raymon]
I have to go with a chef as well.
I should go with Chef Lee.
[Cringes...]
Because... I want to take care of Chef Lee.
That's unnecessary.
Just to let you know, I have a really bad temper.
[In a matter of seconds, Chef Lee builds an iron wall in front of him.]
[Before filming...]
Do you personally have anyone you want to be partners with?
I'd like to go with... Cha Tae Hyun.
I like bright and cheerful people.
Are the rest of us gloomy?
[How can I say that with my own mouth...]
Team up with me.
[A bolt from the blue...]
What are you going to do about it, I like you.
I like you, Chef.
[He hasn't replied yet.]
I also want to talk with Chef Lee a lot.
I have a lot of things I'm curious about.
[Defconn and Lee Yeon Bok]
- I'm going to take care of you, Chef. - Thank you.
[There's only one chef remaining.]
There's one chef card remaining...
Well, I have no choice but to...
I'm headed to my chef. [He selects Chef Kang Leo.]
[Kim Jun Ho and Kang Leo]
What is this? Huh?
[Chefs are sold out.]
Se Ho, are you uneasy around older people?
To tell you the truth, you were right after Joo Hyuk.
[He's happy.]
Okay, I'm going with Se Ho.
[Cha Tae Hyun and Jo Se Ho] I really can't cook...
[Cha Tae Hyun and Jo Se Ho] Doesn't matter.
I've never cooked before...
- What are we going to do? - Both of them make me uneasy!
[Met each other for the first time today.]
This is the first time I've met either of them.
[They're awkward as well...]
I'll go with Sam.
[Jung Joon Young and Sam Hammington]
Nice to meet you.
I have no choice.
[Kim Jong Min and Kim Min Jun]
Now that the teams have been formed... You'll need ingredients to cook, right?
The amount of money to buy those ingredients will be decided by a game.
Of the six food items, three will be real, and the other three will be fake.
With each correct answer, you'll get 30,000 Won...
And if you get all of them right, you'll get unlimited spending money.
[That's good.] [Awesome.]
This game will only be played by... the guests.
We'll now start the first round.
Please bring it out.
These are beverages!
Three of them are Cokes, and the other three are made of soy sauce.
- Soy sauce? - Ah... soy sauce...
They made it well.
Original Coke, and soy sauce Coke.
Chef Kang... he's scanning like...
I'm not allowed to touch them?
No, you can't.
What if we get soy sauce Coke, but finish it?
Well, if you finish it, you can get the money.
Chef, you don't have to go that far...
Okay, we'll decide the order with rock, paper, and scissors.
Rock paper scissors!
It's pretty intense.
[Kim Min Jun will go last.]
I kept on doing rock, but it was going nowhere.
[Takes a while...]
[Chef Lee Yeon Bok wins.]
[Will he able to dodge the soy sauce Coke?]
- No. 4! - No. 4.
[He made his selection relatively fast...]
Why do you think it's No. 4?
People just don't use the number 4... since it's the same as the word 'death.'
[Totally irrelevant to cooking]
- At one, two, and three... - One, two, three.
- It's real, it's real. - Don't force yourself if it's not real.
Really? Is it really Coke?
- Do you want me to try? - Yeah, go ahead.
[It is Coke.]
[They get 30,000 Won.]
It's the same word of 'death...'
Se Ho!
Now, it's highly likely that 4, 5, and 6 is Coke.
4, 5, and 6.
From the way I see it, I don't think No. 5 is Coke.
There's really no bubbles in No. 5.
I say No. 6 or No. 3.
But the ones that look fake can actually be...
No, the fake looking ones are fake!
It's No. 3. Seriously, it's No. 3.
You're making me uncomfortable.
Seriously!
You're making me feel uncomfortable.
- It's No. 3 or No. 6. - If we're already disagreeing...
Look, 1, 2, and 5 don't have bubbles.
Just do what you want.
Seriously, just take one. Take it!
'Excuse me, manner please.'
Okay, No. 3!
Drink up.
One, two...
It's Coke!
[Selects a Coke.]
[Cha Tae Hyun and Jo Se Ho get 30,000 Won.]
If the person chooses a Coke here, then it's over.
You want me to choose?
[Goes with No. 2 without hesitation.]
That looks like soy sauce...
- He got all of them right last time. - Yeah, he got a perfect score.
It's No. 1. No. 1.
[Boiled egg vs. raw egg]
[He got it right.]
They tried hard to make this look real.
[He got Shikhye vs. Salt Shikhye right.]
[He also got Americano with fish sauce correct.]
[His sharp eyes made Seulki flustered.]
Shall I drink it?
- Really? - Is it Coke?
He got it right again?
[Raymon Kim fails.]
[Told you that was soy sauce...]
[Se Ho is curious about the taste of the soy sauce coke.]
[Chef Kang Leo's turn]
[Once again, from a different angle...]
[He looks like a detective at a crime scene...]
[Narrowed down to a few suspects...]
The bubbles in number six are continuing to rise
just like real Coke.
- It's No. 5. - I say, No. 6.
[What's the result...]
[The facial expression he makes when he's tasted something bad...]
[He just had...]
[Real Coke!]
[Kang Leo and Kim Jun Ho get 30,000 Won.]
When you were selecting, Chef Lee, from behind, got all of them right.
[When Se Ho chose No. 3...]
I think No. 3 is Coke.
- It's No. 5. - I say, No. 6.
Numbers 1 and 6 were very similar.
If you look from above, the size of the bubbles looks different.
The bubbles are a bit smaller. The carbonated bubbles...
But if we drink all of it, we can still get 30,000 Won.
[Both of the remaining ones are soy sauce...]
You're going to drink all of that?
[It's slowly disappearing...]
[Are you okay?]
[It's good... Not.]
You'll get 20,000 Won.
[Second Round:] [Plain fish cake vs. spicy fish cake]
- What sauce is this? - Capsaicin.
I really can't tell.
Did you decide?
- Okay, each take one. - Take one, but don't smell it yet.
Please don't overdo it.
I'm not sure about this one...
One, two, three. Take a bite!
Capsaicin... you feel it after a while.
Eat slowly. You can't tell initially.
[They still look relaxed...]
[Who got the spicy fish cake?]
I guess it's okay. Min Jun looks fine.
[Giving up?]
[Flings it.]
How spicy is the capsaicin one?
The spiciness stings and it will be hard to eat.
It's not that difficult to eat...
Are the rest sweet?
This one's really good.
It's sweet.
It's almost like ketchup.
[Chef Lee Yeon Bok got the regular fish cake.]
[Two of these people got the spicy fish cake...]
Is it supposed to be sweet?
- No, they're all somewhat spicy. - It's spicy, right?
Ow!
Yours is the spicy one!
[Hurriedly tries to extinguish the fire.]
His is even spicier than mine.
That's the tasty one.
[Raymon Kim got the spicy fish cake.]
- There are two remaining. - One of them has the spicy one.
[Tests Min Jun's fish cake.]
[This taste...]
I'm sorry...
[Attacked for the second time...]
This one's really spicy as well.
[His eyes lost focus...]
Please clear the table.
It's coming now.
[His taste buds are finally activated as they're taking the table away...]
Are we the only two teams with no money?
We don't have any money?
If we don't get any money here, we can't buy anything?
If we don't have any money, we can't get anything?
Do we get unlimited amount of Makgeolli?
We're providing Makgeolli, so don't worry about the liquor.
Then we can sell the Makgeollis to other regions.
[Good job, Raymon.]
[He's already strategizing as the loser of the game.]
You invited a weird chef.
Half of them are real Shikhyes (rice beverage)...
The other three have a lot of vinegar in them.
Chef Lee Yeon Bok got both of them right, right?
Yeah, he got all of them right.
I'll go with No. 6.
[Tries to ride the momentum without hesitation.]
[Got the vinegar drink.]
[Gets rid of it in the speed of light.]
[What taste is this?]
[The younger chef is excited.]
[Kang Leo, Shikhye]
[Got 60,000 Won.]
[Vinegar attack]
[The taste makes you automatically leave the stage...]
[There's only one vinegar Shikhye left!]
A man has to go with No. 1.
Are you sure about that?
Where did this 'A man should go with No. 1,' come from?
[What's the result of 'the man,' Min Jun's choice?]
['The man' loves Shikhye.]
[50 percent chance]
[What will their fate be?]
I can't get this one wrong...
[I have zero money, please...]
[No money, all the way.]
[Jo Se Ho got the Shikhye!]
[The acidic taste of vinegar rushes in...]
Chef Raymon, your record last time has been broken several times today.
[What's wrong with me...]
Jo Se Ho, Kim Min Jun, and Chef Kang get 30,000 won more.
We're the only one without any...
- You don't have any? - None. I got all of them wrong.
[Glum...]
[Got soy sauce Coke in the first round...]
[Thought I'd get it right in the next round...]
Yours is spicy!
[I couldn't even tell if mine was spicy or not...]
[And to top it off with vinegar...]
[I think I'm done for...]
[What's more bizarre is...]
[This guy, Jo Se Ho.]
It's Coke!
It's not me.
[He's quietly winning at every stage!]
- If you get one more right... - Yes.
[If he gets one more right, they'll get unlimited money for ingredients!]
- We will... - We're getting caviar...
I'm telling you beforehand, but if we get unlimited spending money...
We're going to buy everything alive!
Just purchase an already made dish.
Yes, of course.
That'd be amazing. [He's jealous...]
You probably saw it already, but what we do most often on our program is...
It's fish sauce. We have that remaining.
And because this is the last one...
We'll decide the order again with rock, paper, scissors.
Rock-paper-scissors!
[Se Ho, you won again?]
[He won again.]
[Something's definitely going his way...]
[Last round. Fish sauce Americano vs. Regular Americano]
What did they mix fish sauce with?
[Last chance to earn money for their ingredients...]
[If he chooses right this time, he gets unlimited spending money.]
You can't tell the difference by color.
It's really a game of luck.
[He continues to observe carefully.]
Do you need a sponsored backpack when you're playing the game of luck?
I've signed some agreements...
[You can go put it down.]
[He pretends to put it down...]
[And then carries it in the front.]
What do you think of No. 3?
If you think otherwise, we can go with something else.
You already have enough, so just do it lightheartedly.
You're being greedy.
Okay! Let's go with No. 3!
No. 3? No. 3!
I'm going to do it!
You got all of it right until now, right?
[A perfect score is within reach.]
Challenge!
[Unlimited spending money...]
[Could that be realized?]
[This taste is...]
[It's Americano!]
[Jealous...]
[The ceremony doesn't end...]
Jo Se Ho and Cha Tae Hyun get unlimited spending money.
Can we get a limousine?
In comfort...
Drinking wine...
Final result.
Raymon and Joo Hyuk got 30,000 Won.
Jung Joon Young and Sam Hammington got 50,000 Won.
Kim Jong Min and Kim Min Jun got 60,000 Won.
[Defconn and Chef Lee]
[and Kim Jun Ho and Chef Kang got 90,000 won each.]
Cha Tae Hyun and Jo Se Ho get unlimited spending money.
[A blank check...]
Wow, this is amazing.
Directors... what about a tailored suit for each one of you?
A suit, a pair of shoes...
And cufflinks as well.
We'll have a look at the places you'll be going to.
Please bring out the map.
There won't be Jeju Island, right?
Of course there is... I think I've heard of Jeju Makgeollis.
There's no Jeju Island.
[There's no Jeju Island... but we have Gaedo Island here.]
[From the southernmost to Gangwon province, it covers the whole nation.]
How are we supposed to be back tomorrow?
Please switch them.
[Switch?]
[They're bringing something...]
[They'll decide with a spin of the wheel.]
[Where will Joon Young and Sam Hammington go?]
[Joon Young and Sam Hammington gets Jeolla province.]
[Where will the jeans couple end up going?]
[Jong Min and Min Jun get Gangwon province.]
[There are three provinces remaining.]
Let's go to Gyeonggi province!
[Joon Ho and Leo gets Chungcheong province.]
[As long as it's not the island...]
[Anxious that they'll end up going to the island...]
[Gyeonggi province or the island...]
[Wait a second...]
If I give you this, will you go to the island?
[The nouveau riche tries to solve everything with money...]
Let's do it!
You turn it.
[Nervous to actually turn the wheel...]
Okay, I'll go now.
One, two...
[The dice have been cast!]
[Will it be the island or Gyeonggi province?]
[What will be their fate?]
[Please... don't let it be the island...]
[They got the island...]
[Defconn and Lee Yeon Bok got the island! Congratulations!]
[Tae Hyun and Se Ho automatically get Gyeonggi province.]
[Collapsed due to shock...]
[Luck is definitely on their side today.]
It's crazy.
It's amazing.
[Can't believe this is happening!]
We should have a talk with the person who makes the Makgeolli...
Why do you make Makgeolli on an island?
It's okay. Think of it as a trip with me.
Please just have a meal here...
Please eat here...
I'm saying this with all politeness, but it's uncomfortable around you.
[The helicam appears right at that time...]
I'm sorry... but how much is that?
Come here... I'll buy it.
[Playing rich is fun...]
[What kind of trip awaits us this time?]
If we go now, isn't there spring deodeok?
Right, deodeok. I think there's deodeok makgeolli as well.
Our problem is... we can't cook!
Can you give us a recipe?
It's all give and take.
[Are they buying a recipe?]
[The chef with 30,000 Won lurks around...]
Why aren't you leaving?
[He's been going downhill since his loss to ramen soup base.]
Do you want to go to a buffet?
Your scale is something else.
[Our production cost...]
You can decide the menu after discussing with your partner.
- 'San?' (mountain) - No, 'sangeui.' (discuss)
- 'Sangeui.' - Shanghai?
'Sangeui,' 'saungeui.' [The foreigner is the one on the right...]
Oh, after discussing... after talking about it...
[Wanders around...]
[Teary eyes...]
I'm never returning here...
You always say that, but you'll return.
[The jean jackets got us together...]
[Not sure if they'll talk to each other let alone do the mission together.]
- This is fate. - I know.
Don't worry, Chef.
We'll head towards the Yeosu passenger terminal.
[Yeosu...]
[A nationwide search for small breweries!]
Yeosu?
From here to Yeosu... that's going to take a while.
Three hours and 20 minutes.
Other teams will take at the most two hours...
It'll take about four hours for us...
That's like going to Busan.
Four hours? Including the boat ride?
It's not too bad.
Excuse me? [The big bro has a positive attitude.]
When you're in China and get on a taxi, they say, 'It's only two blocks away.'
It takes two hours to get across those two blocks.
You studied in China as well, right?
Yes, I lived in China for quite a bit. I lived in Taiwan as well...
If you look at my resume, it says 'Korea's youngest Embassy chef.'
You were a chef at the embassy?
I became the Ambassador's chef at the age of 22.
That's where I did a lot of traditional Chinese cuisine...
I tried to do business with that style of cuisine...
But it didn't sell.
- Koreans have their own taste. - Yes.
So I gave that one up and returned to the Korean style...
Now I get it. I know what works and what doesn't.
Now they say things like, 'Lee Yeon Bok is the God of Sales...'
Now that I've had a bit of conversation with you...
You have a tendency to brag a little bit, right?
[Has the energy of a lively guy!]
How was it growing up?
In the beginning, there was this Chinese restaurant near Junggu ward office.
I started with delivery over there.
There were a lot of young teenagers working like that at the time.
When the people who make noodles and chop things, get bored...
They would round up the kids who deliver or wash dishes...
and say, 'You guys come here and have a boxing match.'
[The rough times...]
- And they would have a boxing match... - Did you win?
I won most of the time.
I always...
You've walked a totally different path from Chef Raymon and Chef Kang.
They've walked the rather luxurious path...
I've walked the thorny path... [Street fighter]
- So what happened? - Eventually I made my way to the kitchen.
So you started from the bottom, peeling onions and stuff?
Yes. I started all the way from the bottom.
It slowly opened my eyes...
- How old were you then? - About 16?
[Another master who started cooking at the age of eight.]
Yes. I don't lie... [The genius, Jo Se Ho.]
Why at eight?
When I became hungry while my mother was out...
I would make things like egg bibimbap.
And you recently got some tips from Chef Choi Hyun Suk.
[What did you learn?]
Bluffing, bluffing.
[Charisma]
[Why would you learn how to bluff?]
[Because...]
I only cook... to seduce women...
[Meanwhile, Chef Raymon is super serious...]
First of all, the judges will be adults.
If we meet at noon, I expect them to eat at around two.
Which means they won't be as hungry.
If they're not experts, they might like more pungent tastes...
[He remembers something after analyzing for a while.]
I lost big time last time after planning everything like this.
to ramen powder...
[That's right. If there's something more important than planning...]
The easiest menu comes from...
Having high-quality ingredients.
[He seems somewhat overwhelmed by him.]
[Bohemian charisma]
- Do you know how to cut a fish's head? - Yes, I can do that.
- Even a live one? - No...
I know how to buy things cheaply...
It's really fresh...
but passed away a minute ago...
Even crabs... go for the ones with one broken leg or something like that.
- Is the price that different? - It's completely different.
[Talking to an acquaintance in Jumunjin...]
For example, an abalone with a cracked shell...
[Today, he met someone weirder than himself...]
Really? Got it, got it.
Thank you!
You saw it, right? The middleman!
You used your network and...
The middleman told us that he would get us abalones with broken shells....
[Swears to obey him...]
Your self-love shows with everything you say...
Your jjajangmyun and jjambbong taste good, right?
Words can't even express...
- That's basic. - Yes.
I'm going to look it up.
'Among the four factions in Chinese cuisine, the restaurant run by the chef...'
You do belong to one of the factions.
- Those are the four factions? - I've never heard of it before.
I don't think you can divide them exactly into four groups like that...
When they say 'factions'...
They're talking about the lineages of masters and their students.
Like in Kung Fu, there's the drunken style, and there's the praying mantis style.
Right, right.
And they were able to track the lineage of four factions, I guess.
And those four are...
Ahsuhwon, Hohwa Daebanjum, Palsun, and Hongbosuk.
There was this menu called 'Braised Sea Cucumber' at Ahsuhwon.
Hongbosuk was known for its chilli shrimps.
Hohwa Daebanjum had the Beef Tangmyun.
[They're all legendary restaurants that no longer exist.]
It's almost like reading a martial arts novel.
Where should we have lunch?
I don't care too much about eating.
You're a chef.
There are a few rules I live by...
I never eat breakfast. I eat my first meal around 3 p.m.
If you work in a restaurant, they usually eat around 11 a.m.
If you eat at 11, you get quite full.
Your taste buds are a bit off when you're full.
Food tastes the best when it is made when you're hungry.
[These two are hungry...]
- This is going to go bad. - I think you should eat it now.
What kind of kimbap is it?
[They're worrying about the staff members' kimbap...]
Things that go bad during this season... you can't really tell by smelling it.
Because there's vinegar in it...
- I'll try one. - Just to check if it's okay to eat.
Just the end bit.
[Excited]
[Now give it back!]
I just want to see what ingredients they used.
I need to get some inspiration.
[Nice excuse, but we're taking it back.]
[They couldn't wait any longer, and decided to have lunch.]
[Jong Min and Min Jun have 60,000 won for ingredients.]
[It's not a huge budget...] What do you want to eat?
What's 'Mat ramyun?'
It's regular ramen.
- Is it good? - Yes.
Rice cake and dumplings...
It's just a 1,000 won difference.
Still... 1,000 Won...
I'll have the regular ramen and have ice cream later on.
Really?
- As a dessert. - As a dessert.
[While Min Jun is getting water...]
What's your impression about the chef?
The chef? I'm not sure.
He does seem like an artistic person.
He's reliable. [Sucking up to him as he approaches...]
[As soon as Kim Min Jun returns...]
[He leaves in a hurry.]
What do you think about your partner?
I'm not quite sure...
[Amidst mutual distrust...]
[Their simple lunch commences...]
[Hurriedly eating...]
Should I have just eaten the rice cake and dumpling ramen instead of an ice cream?
[His insatiable hunger for food...]
There was some food that went bad... can we eat that?
Can we eat that?
[They stole the staff members' kimbap...]
[It might have really gone bad...] We'll overcome any digestive problems.
[They've become similar after wearing matching outfits.]
Give it to us.
[We're confiscating it as we're concerned about your health.]
We'll be sick whether we eat one or two.
We don't even have money... so just...
[Teary eyes...]
I'm doing this for our chef.
Then just have one each.
Have one.
Even if it means acting servilely to get one...
I'm going to dip it in soup...
[His delicate hand movement...]
[An exquisite charisma of an epicurean foodie.]
[As their humble lunchtime nears its end...]
Hurry up!
Chairman Jo!
Today... as a special treat...
Chairman Cha here will treat you to a buffet.
Will you be able to handle it, Chairman Cha?
It's probably the first for '2 Days, 1 Night.'
Have as much as you want.
But we have to finish it fast.
[Wealth and prosperity...]
You know this, right?
I think she's going to call the police.
[This is '2 Days, 1 Night'...]
[The program where you get fish sauce...]
[Thanks to one random guest...]
[Awkward...]
[Eat!]
[It's not bad to experience some luxury once in a while, right?]
'Sumimaseng.'
[12 p.m.: Lunch and recipe trade deal is realized...]
Yangpyeong is famous for its mountain and its water.
So all the precious vegetables and spring greens you can get there...
And the mountain greens are popular as well.
But our position is that... Since we have a lot of money...
So we should go with something expensive...
It's sort of our responsibility as well.
Something you can only taste once in your life...
Do you want to go with caviar?
When they drink vodka in Russia...
They drink a shot of vodka, followed by a spoon of caviar.
And they pop those caviar inside their mouths and taste them together.
What about bulgogi steak?
People just cook thin slices of beef brisket.
When you cook beef brisket, the fat is released so it becomes limp.
Coat it with sweet rice powder...
Then you fry it... and it becomes crispy and stays that way for a long time.
You can also make buckwheat junbyung. (small pancake-like wraps)
I don't know how to make buckwheat jungbyung.
Just mix buckwheat powder with water.
And just cook it like that? After rolling it thin?
This crossed my mind...
But what do you call those food items that goes in one mouth?
- Finger food. - Yes, finger food.
Take a sip of Makgeolli and then pop in a finger food.
And then roll it like this...
[Not bad...]
[What's going on?] [Is he really...]
[Something of a chef?]
Chef, this is what I was talking about.
[There's a lot of inspiration at the buffet!]
About how much does one of these cost?
Thanks for the meal, Chairman Jo.
Today's meal was very satisfying.
I'd like to pay now.
How much is it?
There were 4 people and the lunch buffet was 25,000 won each...
So the total comes to 100,000 Won.
This should work, right?
A blank check.
- This should work, right? - You can keep that.
If you give me about 10 coupons, I'll come again...
[Joon Ho and Leo head to Dangjin.]
[It's time to think about our own recipe.]
[Figured out something.]
[What is it?] This is perfect.
Ray sashimi seems like a good idea.
[He responds instinctively.]
Sounds like a good idea, right?
Ray sashimi with Makgeolli.
With Makgeolli, sashimi that's seasoned sweet and sour would be perfect.
I'll put in a lot of water parsley.
Do they catch clams here as well?
This place is... clam heaven.
Clam... we're good to go then.
Steamed clam cooked with Makgeolli.
There's such a thing?
When we normally cook clams...
we use water and cook them.
In France, they only use wine, without a drop of water.
The clams would spit out all the water it retained.
And that becomes the jus.
If you eat those clams with the jus...
The taste of the ocean will be stronger...
Because water wasn't used in the cooking process.
We can try it with Makgeolli this time.
Seasoned ray sashimi and clams steamed in liquor.
Clams steamed in liquor...
The name itself makes it sound so delicious.
Spring clams steamed in liquor...
You just added the word 'spring,' and it sounds fresh.
I think we'd be able to prepare the menu in 30 minutes.
Really?
Then we have enough time, and our menu is already decided.
Then... there's no question about our victory tomorrow.
Without a doubt, we will win tomorrow.
As long as there's no surprise factor...
[Meanwhile, Chef Kang Leo's strongest rival...]
Which reminds me...
You look like Lee Moon Sik.
Let's go for something good but simple.
From my experience last time...
You just have to capture them with a popular and approachable taste.
And it needs to be easy.
What about jjajangmyun?
[What?]
We came to an island for ingredients... why would we make jjajangmyun?
If it's Makgeolli... we need to go the opposite direction for side dishes.
If the liquor is sweet, the dish should not be sweet.
If we talk in Chinese cuisine terms...
There are many types of naengchae... (cold salad)
That sour taste...
Like those chilled pigs' feet salad...
We did come to an island...
So we should go with seafood.
- So is there a fish market there? - No, there isn't one.
Then where would you get seafood...
Gaedo island is famous for disk abalone...
It grows more slowly. They say it's very nutritious...
[The Gyeonggi province team is not doing anything in particular yet...]
Se Ho, how much do you usually drink?
Normally...
I'd say a bottle of soju?
If I have time, then it's a different story.
If I do have time, I'd go for 20 glasses of Somaek (soju beer mix).
You drink well.
But if I drink 20 glasses...
We all end up making mistakes...
But you know this saying about Makgeolli, right?
If you get drunk with Makgeolli, you won't even recognize your parents.
But... other types of liquor have that effect on me as well...
- It's not just Makgeolli... - Do you have a post-drinking habit?
I... I even had my mother in a headlock.
In a headlock?
I even slept in a dumpster.
We were drinking at a work party...
And they told me I was talking on the phone for an hour.
The singer, Kim Hyun Chul, asked me...
'Who are you talking to?'
I had only typed in '02' and I was just talking by myself.
Recently, I drank a lot...
You know, in the morning... when you wake up...
When you didn't drink the night before, it's usually like this...
'Ah, I slept well.'
This is how you feel.
But if you drank too much the previous night...
[Where am I?]
What is this. What's going on. [Super irritated!]
And then you check your cellphone. Did I do something? Did I call someone?
I live in Seoul...
And my parents live in Yongin.
I opened my eyes...
And I was in Yongin!
Yeah, at the Yongin house.
And my father was like, 'Have a look at your feet.'
My feet were really dirty.
I guess I was looking for a place to sleep...
Couldn't dare go into the apartment.
Luckily at the time, at the apartment...
This lady had left her car door open because the car key was broken.
They found my shoes in that car.
You must have tried all the car doors...
I don't know...
Well, it was in the past... and I formally apologized to the lady.
But even if I make mistakes... I never cause others trouble.
Even when I drink...
I've even had a drink with this director here.
I just feel good after drinking, so I just clap and enjoy singing...
When I did a program with him before...
I don't think you'd remember... but at a karaoke...
I remember.
I remember that.
Do you remember taking your pants off?
All the writers were there.
The reason why I took my pants off that time...
I... how should I say this.
I guess I was really drunk.
You really get trashed once you drink, huh?
No, no, no. I'm not like that!
If you do slightly more than that, you'll be arrested!
Didn't you take your pants off with me? I kind of remember you doing that.
Now he's saying whatever.
But I really don't have a post-drinking habit...
When I get in a car in the morning, I can't sleep well...
I can't sleep well while we're on the move.
[He's not dead, is he?]
[Starts snoring.]
[Right about when the car was turning into a motel...]
[Their rivals were...]
[Searching for side dish ideas without sleeping...]
[The desire to win transcends nationality.]
[What fish is in season in Gangwon province?]
[Jeolla province is known for its food.]
Se Ho, I think we're almost there.
Yes. [Where am I?]
[2 p.m.: Chungcheong team arrives first at a brewery.]
I think we're here.
I guess we're here.
I heard they've been here for a long time.
It's the right one. White Lotus Makgeolli.
The brewery...
It has a Japanese feel to it.
[What is Chungcheong Makgeolli?]
- Hello, hello. - Hello.
Are you the owner of this brewery?
[Kim Dong Kyo, Third generation owner]
You're the third generation? Then how old is this place?
This was founded by my grandfather in 1933.
1933...
The chef here was saying that... this place has a Japanese...
That it has a Japanese feel to it.
Even the clothes you're wearing...
Actually this is Baekje style. (An ancient Korean country)
Oh, this is Baekje style.
- Okay, let's go in. - Yes, please come in.
This is my first time at a brewery.
- Hello. - Hello. Hello, sir.
[CEO Kim Yong Se, Second generation at the brewery]
- It's all mechanized. - It's high tech.
[But the atmosphere is...]
[Relatively modern?]
[If it's 83 years old...]
[Shouldn't it have this kind of vibe?]
[What's going on?]
When did you start using these machines?
These weren't used in the past.
Well, they didn't have these machines back then.
- Everyone uses machines these days. - Really?
You can't do it all by hand.
Back then, we used to do everything by hand...
Yours is called 'White Lotus Makgeolli,' but what exactly is it?
I make it with white lotus leaves... so I have a patent.
It tastes clean and refreshing...
And there's a lot of good nutrition in it.
So it's made of flowers?
- No, lotus leaves... - Ah, yes.
Can you tell us more about it? All of those look fascinating.
I'm steam cooking rice over there.
You have to steam cook rice.
But you just told us that you use lotus flowers, no, lotus leaves...
Then what's the rice for?
[Oh dear...]
[Where did this idiot come from...]
[I'm embarrassed...]
Rice is the main ingredient of Makgeolli...
But you said you use lotus leaves...
You need rice to make any Makgeolli...
And lotus leaves are for enhancing the flavor.
[Did he really understand it?]
I feel like an idiot.
[Time to meet Makgeolli with the idiot.]
- Can we go in? - Yes, please come in.
- This one says 'Jumo,' right? - Yes.
This is the mother of the liquor.
So this mother liquor needs to be good for the offspring liquor to be good.
The microorganisms here...
They work busily to make amazing alcoholic beverages for people.
This one's almost done.
- You can see the lotus leaves here... - Yes.
[One day prior to being filtered] It's already so thick.
Can you eat it right away?
You'd want to filter it once.
Filter it?
[Adding water and filtering it from 15 percent pure liquor.]
So you're weakening it by adding water to this.
You're absolutely correct.
[Our first time experiencing...]
[Our traditional liquor that was just filtered...]
[The way it is squeezed out...]
[is very Korean...]
I remember during our grandfathers' time...
They said something about eating the residue of Makgeolli.
They were hungry so they ate it, and got drunk.
This is fascinating.
Give it a try.
Really?
On television?
It's 15 percent.
Don't drink till you drop, just have a taste.
Then I'll just have a taste.
I have no choice but to take a sip...
You're already salivating...
[That taste!]
What should I say...
It's mild and doesn't taste like it's 15 percent alcohol.
[Kang Leo takes a sip.]
[He's definitely different.]
Unlike regular Makgeollis...
There's something weighty and creamy
that fills your mouth.
It feels weighty, like heavy cream.
And it's aromatic...
I should've said something like this...
I like drinking it like this. [Can't hide his luxuriousness.]
If you think you haven't expressed it well, you can try again.
Me? [Pressure...]
How are you going to describe it?
Give me some ideas...
'It feels like walking on clouds...'
[I did give him an idea...]
[What will he say?]
Wow...
This is just...
Sonogong. (A monkey character from an ancient novel)
I feel like I'm walking on clouds... [He's being nice.]
Thank you very much.
This is what the gods drank.
Is it really that alcoholic? It doesn't taste that way...
Right? It's because of the lotus leaves...
- Oh, really? - And you don't really have a hangover.
When you drink Makgeolli...
Is it better to just skim the top part and drink just that?
No, it's better to mix it well and drink it.
All the good stuff, like fiber... is in the bottom part.
So you should always shake it first.
That's the right way to drink it.
I've been drinking the top part only...
[The Gyeongsang team arrives at a brewery.]
It's here, right? Chilgok Brewery.
[Unlike Dangjin's brewery, it looks like a small, regular house.]
[But this place also has a long history of making liquor...]
[They're very much like the liquor itself... simple yet warm...]
[If you need Makgeolli, please take some.] [And their generosity lives on...]
This is my first time at a brewery.
It's your first time?
Anybody here?
- Hello. - Welcome.
You make Makgeolli here, right?
[Yoo Hu Nam, CEO] Yes.
What should I do for you?
Please... show us around.
The liquor here.
You want liquor?
No, tell us how you make Makgeolli and things like that.
It's being fermented right now.
You ferment all of it yourself?
- Come here and have a look. - Can we go in?
Yes, of course. We're an open book.
[Her accent makes her sound angry, but she's not.]
I made it yesterday. Yesterday morning. It's in the midst of being fermented.
You can see...
- It's bubbling up. - Yes.
You just leave it there and it just...
Yes, it's naturally fermenting... It's the fermenting process.
Once it's done fermenting, it becomes still like this.
We only fill it up to here.
And as it ferments, it expands and fills the tank.
In two days, it will bubble up very softly, like when you make rice.
[From the drama series, 'Cinderella's Sister'...]
'It's the sound liquor makes as it ripens...'
[The sound that consoled her aching heart in the drama series...]
[What did that 'sound of liquor ripening' sound like in real life?]
[The vigorous sound of life that microbial yeasts make...]
[Nature finishes off the process that humans have started...]
So you don't boil it?
If you boil it, all the microorganisms will die!
So you just leave it here and it's this warm...
This is so amazing. It feels like there's fire underneath.
I also thought that way... wondering why it was boiling...
It's fascinating.
It's even warm.
You're fermenting it like yogurt...
It's still fascinating to me as well.
We don't really do new research and development...
We're just doing exactly what our ancestors used to do...
so our liquor has a short expiration date.
During the summer, if we put it in a refrigerator, it lasts for a week.
So we don't do mass production.
They have to come buy it...
So our customers are people who like our liquor.
This Gyeongsang Chilgok Makgeolli...
They say that it surprises people three times...
First, people are surprised to find that the Makgeolli is yellow.
Secondly, the banana scent in the Makgeolli surprises them.
And lastly, they're surprised that the aftertaste is so clean.
Can we by any chance try one in a bottle?
Go ahead. [She's so cool.]
[Flustered.]
Do you want me to just go and try it?
There are cups over there.
It's right there. I tell everyone to just drink it.
I do everything by hand...
- Every one of them? - Yes, of course!
That's why you call it 'handmade.'
Ma'am, but it's not really something I should get scolded over...
It happens when you're my age.
[Pours a bit...]
Try it. Try it.
[They say it surprises you three times...] [What will it taste like?]
It really has a banana scent to it!
- Trying it like this... - You smell it, right?
- It really smells a bit like banana milk. - The initial scent.
Where is this banana scent coming from?
I don't know. I really don't know.
It's really the scent of banana milk.
I once tried Makgeolli with mango added to it.
But that was actually added...
But you didn't add anything to this.
But why does it smell like banana?
What should I give you as anju (side dish)?
We usually only give salt to the customers that come here.
Salt?
If you have salt as anju, it comforts your digestive system.
Really? [Salt won't cost us much...]
This is new information...
- There's salt, right? - Try it.
How much salt should you eat?
- No, just one's enough! - Oh, just one?
Why do you keep getting angry at me?
Just take enough to enhance the flavor.
You shouldn't eat a lot!
[One sip of Makgeolli...]
It's so good...
And a grain of salt.
What do you think? Can it work as anju?
For those who really like to drink... Since this itself is so tasty...
I don't think they'll eat a lot of anju.
But if you eat salt, it just cuts off that flavor.
So you can start drinking again.
It's kind of like eating a sorbet during a course meal.
It kind of cleanses your mouth.
[Meanwhile, Min Jun and Jong Min arrive in Jumunjin.]
It looks like a regular house.
[Rice wine Cooperative Brewery]
[All the breweries are very different.]
[Sohn Bong Gil, Jumunjin Brewery Factory owner]
We're going in now?
Field.
[Field]
- This is the first process, right? - Yes, this is the first process.
We're steaming rice in this pot...
- Is this steamed? - No, this is for tomorrow morning.
- So you're soaking it now? - Yes.
It's been washed and soaked.
You can't eat it, right?
Well, it's raw rice...
You like raw grains, no?
This is the boiler room.
[Do we really need to see this as well?] ['Boira' room]
[Hot] It's hot in here.
This is like a jjimjilbang (Korean sauna).
This room is about 42 degrees Celsius. (108 degrees Fahrenheit)
42 degrees?
- This here is... - It's not cooked rice, but raw rice.
We're fermenting it here for 24 hours...
And then we steam cook it...
- Can we try a tiny bit? - Sure.
It won't taste like anything...
- Just a tiny bit. - Yes, it doesn't matter.
This is the fermenting process. It takes 24 hours.
- How is it? - It's good.
We didn't eat yet...
You must be hungry...
Next up...
Next is 'Saipshil.'
This is where you ferment the cooked rice.
- This will be fermented... - It looks like regular cooked rice.
This will go through the fermentation process and will become liquor.
This is after 12 days...
It takes around 10 days...
This is the last process...
- Last... - Yes.
I can smell it.
We just filtered the liquor.
You can see the bubbles rising.
It looks carbonated.
Tomorrow morning, we'll take this...
and pour it into the bottles...
As it passes through this conveyor belt, the date will be printed.
[Because rice grains float around 'dong dong,' it's called Dongdongju.]
Shake it well and give it a try.
[With just the smell...]
[You feel like you're getting tipsy...]
[What will it taste like?]
The carbon bubbles...
[After drinking...]
[His hand automatically goes to the anju.]
[Kimchi is the best anju for this.]
I'm going to try the sea squirt.
[The factory owner had procured Jumunjin sea squirts for us...]
Tell me what you think about the taste.
[I even showed you around the factory...]
It's a bit carbonated...
It's slightly milder than Makgeolli.
How should I say it... it tastes very clean.
And unlike Makgeollis...
it makes me salivate.
It makes me salivate, and it's almost like a pre-meal liquor.
I think...
[Anticipating...]
I think it raises your appetite.
Yeah, good explanation.
When you drink this, you notice you're salivating.
I've never heard of that expression.
What kind of anju...
- Today, we have to... - Something that goes well with Dongdongju.
The Jumunjin port is right in front, right?
Yes.
What's in season at Jumunjin port right now?
There's not much that is in season right now.
- There's some herring... - Herring...
A bit of squid...
Squid!
These liquor clay pots...
The pots actually breathe...
It's been handed down from our ancestors...
The reason why things last in the pots is because of these microscopic holes...
There's an expression, 'Fall into a liquor clay pot.'
That's why I was thinking... 'Yeah, you can fall into that.'
It needs to be this big in order to fall into it.
[We'll fall into the pots for you...]
'2 Days!'
'1 Night!'
Should I do something else?
'2 Days!' '1 Night!'
[The ferry is gliding across the spring sea of Yeosu...]
[And...]
Hey, I have no more snacks left!
Here, you can have the chef's finger.
[Why are they acting like lovers?]
I think it's returning from fishing.
[He's the most excited on this boat.]
Hope you got a full load of fish!
Oh, it's the police.
[Telling the police officers to get a full load of fish...]
[Hope... you catch a lot...]
[They finally arrive at Gaedo island...]
[As always, at the busy dock...]
[A map of the island is there...]
[An hour away by boat, south of Yeosu...]
[Gaedo, a quiet island where spring arrives early, is situated...]
'Gaedo... Jujojang' (brewery).
[From outside, you wouldn't know it's a brewery...]
- Should we go in? - Yes.
He looks busy.
Hello!
- Nice to meet you! - Nice to meet you!
- So nice to meet you. - You came all the way here...
I'm Defconn.
[Kang Tae Shim and Kim Sang Man, Owners]
I came here because I wanted to know about your Makgeolli.
Where are you going, Chef? Chef?
[The big bro is a free spirit...]
He looked like he was welcoming us...
Should we try a sip?
Bring some kimchi.
Don't worry about it, Ma'am, just give us a cup.
[Yeosu is known for its water...]
[Its mustard leaf kimchi...]
[and the island Makgeolli!]
Here you go.
The color is lovely.
That's enough.
[He finishes it in one shot.]
It's really good.
This is almost like juice, not Makgeolli.
[Puzzled]
It's like white juice. A juice that's white.
It's very refreshing.
It's really good.
The minute I tasted this...
I felt the urge to get a few bottles to gift to my friends...
It's difficult to find something like this in Seoul.
This mustard leaf kimchi is also...
[Lee Yeon Bok tries it...]
What do you think, Chef?
It's good.
This is amazing.
When this Makgeolli entered my mouth...
I was a bit surprised.
It's very refreshing, yet there's this aftertaste that keeps it clean.
Do you have a secret recipe that you use to make this taste?
- Chunjebong's water... - Oh, that Chunjebong?
[Gaedo has been known for its water since the Joseon dynasty.]
Tomorrow...
If we take this Makgeolli and this kimchi, we win.
Then what will you do?
I'm just going to hang around...
You must be drunk. Dad, you shouldn't be like that.
But seriously, just try this.
I know, I know.
[The Chinese cuisine chef has forgotten what he was here for.]
It's like juice.
Wine is known all over the world...
Makgeolli, if it tastes this good, it has potential.
We're trying hard to learn everything from our father.
What about the daughter? You too?
There are merits to running a brewery.
Yes, of course.
My brother is in the trade business...
Should I tell him to come here and export this to China?
[The business mind of a restaurant owner is being stimulated...]
I don't think we'll have to drink the Kaoliang liquor that you brought...
This is much better.
What you said just now...
[Don't regret it...]
[About 400 bottles of Makgeolli are produced here daily.]
[Most small breweries around the nation produce less than a 1,000 bottles a day.]
[Fresh Makeollis have been produced and consumed locally...]
[Due to its short shelf life.]
[Nowadays, thanks to the internet and advanced delivery service...]
[It's being sent to more far flung places.]
[Gyeonggi team arrives at a brewery!]
Is this the place that I had mentioned?
The place that's 100 years old...
I think so...
It has been 100 years.
- Hello. - Hello.
[Kim Ki Hwan, President of the company]
[Third generation brewery president]
- He's young. - Why is the president so young?
My father used to run it...
Oh, so you're the third generation...
So it's been 100 years...
Almost a 100 years...
[Was founded in 1925] We came to the right place.
We were expecting... someone old in hanbok (Korean traditional clothing).
When you say 'hello,' he'd just close the door in your face.
Asking us what the heck we're doing there.
'What are you guys doing here!'
And he's already drinking...
So we have to keep bowing in front of the house...
And then we have to pass through several obstacles...
And then tomorrow morning... he'll say...
'Do you want to step inside for a bit?'
We were expecting something like that.
[Would someone like that actually exist in real life?]
Anybody here?
Why isn't there anyone here?
[There's no sign of anyone's presence...]
Hello?
We came for Makgeolli. Makgeolli.
- Wait a minute. - Yes.
He's telling us to wait.
[Sam goes somewhere.]
Is that it?
'Handmade by Song Myung Sup...'
It doesn't look any different.
Is Song Myung Sup a celebrity?
He is, right?
Isn't it just the name of the president here?
There are three Song Myung Sups...
Hello.
[Song Myung Sup, Master of Makgeolli]
[His charisma is like no other.] Where are you from?
We're from '2 Days, 1 Night.'
Hey, you're really the person from '2 Days, 1 Night.'
- Hello. - It's been a while.
In real life, you look... less handsome.
- Really? Why? - You look extremely tired...
- I've been sleeping... - You've been sleeping?
So we're here to... what is it? Makgeolli!
We have to cook with Makgeolli tomorrow.
Can we taste it?
For free?
We don't have liquor here...
- You don't? - No, I don't.
Isn't this a brewery?
You have to order in advance for there to be liquor here...
I didn't hear anything...
Really?
I don't have any. I have to filter it anew.
Then... since it's 1 p.m., we'll return at 7 p.m.
Good bye.
Can't you make some for us?
No, I'm not going to.
[Next week...]
[This is driving me crazy...]
You do it, I'm not going to do it.
[There's no such thing as a free lunch.]
[Why is it so difficult to...]
[get one bottle of Makgeolli?]
[Slap]
I don't think I've been scolded this much lately.
[The sufferings of the top chefs...]
[Do I have to go this far?]
[The battle starts now.]
[Combination of experts and rookies]
[A cooking competition with a panel of 100 judges...]
[Who will become the victor for the 'Best Juansang?']
[Next week...]
