This week's story on Rainbow Club.
Finally, she's here.
Kim Yeon Koung, the highest paid volleyball player in the world.
Her house in Turkey will be revealed for the first time.
From her superb household skills...
to her feminine side we've never seen before,
Yeon Koung's single life in Turkey will be revealed.
These wet tissues have gone bad.
Gosh.
The Rainbow Club members start a new challenge.
The tougher mum is here to control her tough daughter.
Hye Jin and her mum show off their teamwork while doing farm chores.
Don't be so corny, Mum.
That's why you still don't have a boyfriend.
Mum, please.
To eat well when he eats alone, Yong Geon decides to learn to cook.
He takes cooking class for the first time in his life.
Mine looks bad.
I'm a tough guy.
C Jamm works out hard to become a rapper with a muscular body.
(Go faster.)
(He can't get himself together.)
I Live Alone, "The Challenge Goes on".
I'll show that I've completely changed
Come on
(The Rainbow Live)
(This is the first Rainbow Live filmed in another country.)
(Who came to the airport late night?)
(It's Kim Yeon Koung, the volleyball queen.)
Hi.
(A member of her fan club comes to welcome her.)
I'll check in my luggage before I meet my fans.
(Another fan club member is here.)
Hello.
I've been living alone in Turkey for six years.
I'm Kim Yeon Koung. I'm a volleyball player.
(She's the best attacker in the world.)
(She the captain and the ace of Korea's national team.)
(She's as popular as an idol star.)
(After she joined the Fenerbahce Women's Volleyball,)
(the team won the Turkish Women's Volleyball League.)
(Kim Yeon Koung, the volleyball queen)
(She checks in her luggage before she meets her fans.)
I packed too much.
I have a lot of stuff. It looks like I'm moving there.
(It looks like she's moving to Turkey.)
Oh my goodness.
Is this yours, too?
My goodness. Why did I pack so much?
(A foreign fan showed up.)
- Are you moving? - Exactly.
It's similar.
(A fan is busy taking photos of Yeon Koung.)
- Please put the next one. - Okay.
Please put it in.
Thank you.
(She speaks cutely as she feels apologetic.)
Please put this in, too.
Thank you. Thank you.
Hello.
(Reporters are here to see her off.)
All the other players of your team have returned, right?
Yes, they have. I'm an exception.
The team gave me more time so I can spend Chuseok in Korea.
I have a mixed feeling whenever I go back to Turkey.
I get nervous about a new start,
and I feel sad because I have to leave Korea.
I always feel like that.
- Thank you. - Have a safe flight.
Thank you.
See you later.
(Where's the volleyball queen going next?)
Hello.
I'm wearing the signature colour of my fan club.
(I'm wearing the signature colour of my fan club.)
That was funny.
(All of her fans are women.)
You look pretty.
Thank you.
(The fans go crazy as she speaks to them.)
Look at her face as much as you want.
You know...
I think I'm getting attached to you as I see you often.
- Right. - Let's meet more often.
- Do you want to see me more often? - Yes.
You should come to Turkey.
I'll go to Turkey around the middle of February.
Really? Are you coming to Turkey?
- I'll go to Turkey in January. - Yes, I am.
Do you think it'll be my last season in Turkey? Why would you do that?
- I'll go to Turkey, too. - I'll really go to Turkey.
I'm saving money to go to Turkey.
Is there anything you want me to do...
when I play games in Turkey?
Do celebration when you score a point with a spike.
What should I do? What do you think?
Please do this.
(Please make a heart with your fingers.)
Make a heart after spiking?
That'd be weird.
I spike the ball with a serious look,
and then, I suddenly act cute like this.
I don't like that idea.
(She's adorable.)
Should I do something when I gain the serve?
You look so pretty when you wink.
- Right. - Give a wink.
Wink at the camera.
- Give us a wink now. - Give us a wink now.
I can't wink like this until I find the camera.
(We love you even when you look funny.)
We should let her go after taking a group picture.
It's time to go.
(She's sad.)
- Oh, no. - My goodness.
- She's crying. - Oh, no.
- Please don't go. - I know.
(Please don't go, Yeon Koung.)
I'm not going there to die.
(She smiles.)
I'm going there to make money.
(Even her way of comforting her fans is charming.)
I'm very grateful to my fans.
If they hadn't seen me off,
I would've felt lonely when I left.
Thanks to them, I didn't feel lonely.
They gave me a lot of strength.
(Why do you have so many female fans?)
Girl crush.
People say that I induce their girl crush.
Since I look strong when I play games,
I think many women like me.
"Your girl crush, Kim Yeon Koung". Wow.
(Her fans even prepared a banner.)
- Yeon Koung. - Yes? Wait.
(She's right in front of my eyes.)
Do you know my name, Yeon Koung?
Please keep in the order.
I'd block everyone behind me. I should stand behind them.
- You're so tall. - Stand in front.
(She stands behind her fans so they'll be seen in the picture.)
(Yeon Koung stands at the back as she's the tallest.)
- Goodbye. - Bye.
- Take care. - Take care, Yeon Koung.
- Bye. Don't cry. - Good luck.
Or go with me to Turkey.
- Bye. - I love you, Yeon Koung.
Thank you.
(She's heading to the departure gate escorted by her fans.)
(The volleyball queen is as popular as an idol star.)
(She arrives at the departure gate.)
- Yeon Koung. - Yeon Koung.
- I'm leaving now. - Take care.
- Take care. - Thank you.
(Girls, see you later.)
- Take care. - Have a safe flight.
Thank you.
Whenever I go back to Turkey after staying in Korea,
I feel a little weird.
I stay with the other players in Korea,
but I live alone again in Turkey.
The thought of it makes me worry if I can do well in Turkey.
I have mixed emotions.
(After the 11-hour flight, she arrives...)
(in Turkey where Europe and Asia coexist.)
(Yeon Koung arrived at Istanbul Ataturk Airport.)
- Have you been well? - You brought so much.
I know. Have you been well?
- I've been doing well. - Good.
- Where's Ali? - He's at the parking lot.
- He's at the parking lot. - I see.
(There's another person waiting for Yeon Koung in the parking lot.)
(Have you been well?)
(How have you been?)
(Yeon Koung greets him in Turkish.)
(Did you get a new haircut?)
(Bo Ram's husband)
(Bo Ram helps Yeon Koung with her life in Turkey.)
It's heavy. Gosh.
(Gosh)
During a game in the Rio Olympics,
I said a swear word, which let many people know about me.
(When the game wasn't going well, she swore unintentionally.)
I become very competitive during the games.
I think that's why I swore.
I'm thankful that people are understanding.
I think I might swear again in my games.
I hope you'll understand me.
(Dragging her tired body after a long flight,)
(Yeon Koung finally goes home.)
(- How have you been? - I've been well. How about you?)
(I've been well, too.)
- She's a celebrity in Korea. - I see.
You're a celebrity.
(He giggles.)
I've been a celebrity for a long time,
but I became more famous recently.
I can't even walk around on streets, Ali.
Gosh, you're lying.
(Gosh, you're lying.)
It's true.
(How did he understand me?)
I understand Korean.
It's been a while,
but it doesn't feel strange to be here.
- It's your 5th time. It's natural. - Isn't it the 6th time?
This is my sixth season in Turkey.
- Really? - Yes.
I dreamt of joining a foreign team.
In order to do that, I have to live alone overseas.
So, I had to come to Turkey and start living alone.
The airport is in the area that's included in Europe.
Crossing the bridge,
you enter the area that's included in Asia.
I live...
in the city called Acibadem in that area.
(Yeon Koung came home crossing the bridge from the airport.)
(Bo Ram and her husband help her move her luggage.)
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Bye. We'll get going.
- I'll call you if I need something. - Okay.
- Thank you. Bye. - Bye.
Bye.
(It's been a while. Home, sweet home.)
(The living room looks warm and cosy.)
(Antique items are displayed in a corner.)
(The bathroom is decorated in a calm white colour.)
(It's clean as if it were a hotel room bathroom.)
(This is the place where she keeps herself healthy.)
(The kitchen looks simple and tidy.)
(This is her bedroom where she rests.)
(A new milestone begins in her hands.)
(The room is filled with objects that remind her of happy memories.)
(The ceiling is unusually high.)
It's been a while.
(Looking out the window,)
(you can see the area at a glance.)
(The view makes you feel refreshed.)
(She starts unpacking.)
Let's wipe it with wet tissues.
What's wrong with it?
(It's covered with mould.)
The wet tissues have gone bad.
Gosh.
The wet tissues are covered with mould since I was gone for a while.
(She has more wet tissues at home.)
(A thick layer of dust covers her house.)
There's so much dust.
(Go away.)
(She cleans every corner of her house with wet tissues.)
Okay. Let's start.
Mum did a good job in packing my clothes.
(She groans.)
(Hang on a second.)
Why did she...
fold them like this?
(They don't look tidy.)
(She folds all the clothes again.)
(Yeon Koung likes her clothes folded perfectly.)
Let's arrange them by colour.
Put black shirts together.
(She's arranging her shirts by colour and brightness.)
When I was young, I was even more obsessed with tidiness.
I can't help it. It's my personality.
I need to maintain things tidy, so I can focus on my training.
I try to arrange things perfectly, so I don't have to do it again.
That's how I organise the house.
(Yeon Koung arranges everything perfectly.)
(She still has more to unpack.)
Gosh.
(She brought a heavy box from Korea.)
My mum is unbelievable.
I told her not to pack too much, but she packed so much food.
What's this?
I should keep pork meat in the freezer.
What's this? Squid?
What's this? A fish?
She's unbelievable.
She packed kimchi, too.
(She takes a bite.)
(She tastes a side dish while grumbling.)
It tastes good.
(She likes the side dish.)
(She puts a side dish in a container.)
I feel hungry all of a sudden.
(Yeon Koung is putting each side dish in containers.)
What's this?
It's salted fish.
I like salted fish.
What's this?
(She stores the side dishes in long containers just like her.)
How can I eat this? They're all stuck together.
(I'll eat young radish kimchi with ramyeon.)
Okay.
It's cabbage kimchi.
Why did she...
not cut them in small pieces?
Let's take one out.
Goodness.
(The counter top is too low for her.)
(She has to hunch over it.)
(Even though it's uncomfortable, she cuts kimchi meticulously.)
(It's impressive.)
(She wipes the sauce on the rim.)
(Okay)
I'm tired.
I got tired on the day I came back home.
(She unpacked from 4am.)
You're Wilson.
Hi.
(It's nice to meet you.)
Wilson came all the way to Turkey by plane.
He got dirty.
Hi.
I'm tired.
(You must be tired. Let's get some rest.)
I should take a rest.
I'm tired.
(I'm jet-lagged.)
I should get some sleep.
Let's go to sleep.
(Wearing socks while sleeping doesn't feel good.)
I'll sleep for a while.
(She's tired as she arrived early in the morning.)
(How will her afternoon be like?)
(Hye Jin is driving on a country road.)
(Inje, Sinnam)
(She's heading somewhere with excitement.)
(She's startled.)
Look at those soldiers.
(Is she visiting a soldier, her hidden lover?)
(She's going deeper into the woods.)
(Why is Hye Jin going to the mountain?)
I'm going to Gangwon Province to visit my mum.
I'm going to help my mum harvest her crops...
and plant some more cabbages. She said she needs more of them.
I also have to pick chilli peppers to make chilli powder.
(She brought a lot of dog food.)
- You should've bought just one. - Pardon?
Just one bag would've been enough.
It's not expensive.
(Yoon Soon Rye, Hye Jin's mother)
It's food for Boksil.
This is an expensive one.
- Is it? - Boksil will eat a lot at once.
It wasn't that expensive.
(She welcomes her daughter whom she hasn't seen in a while.)
(How will Hye Jin's day with her mum turn out?)
I put the work clothes for you to change into.
Mum, seriously.
- I need longer sleeves. - That's the long one.
You need to change your clothes...
- to pick cabbages. - Mum.
Can you give me something pretty?
That's the pretty one.
(She makes Hye Jin stop grumbling.)
Sit down and put them on.
I put socks on standing up.
I wear stockings standing up, too.
I was the same when I was your age.
Should I pick these small ones, too?
Pick all that turned red.
- Should I pick all the red ones? - Yes.
There are a lot of bees here.
That's why you need that hat.
(How will the squabbling mother and daughter work together?)
You can just pick red ones.
I can pick all the red ones, right?
- Just the red ones. - Exactly.
(They start picking chilli peppers.)
(I've never worked in the field before.)
Mum, I think these are different kinds of chilli pepper.
- I think it's green chilli pepper. - Don't pick them.
- They're bigger than chilli pepper. - I can't tell them apart.
They're right here. Stop talking and come here.
They look a little different.
- They're bigger. - Wait. They look the same.
I don't think I can do this because I can't tell them apart.
Stop talking nonsense.
When can we pick all of these?
Just keep working.
- Did you see dried chilli peppers? - Yes.
I've waited for you to come.
- It's fun. - You don't even cook for me.
It's fun.
Please plant chilli peppers higher next time. My back hurts.
These are taller.
(She ends up squatting.)
- Pick faster. - Pardon?
- Do it faster. - I'm picking.
Gosh.
(Even though she moans...)
She gave up after working so little.
We have a lot to do today,
but she's working so slowly.
You said, "What should I do? Can I do anything to help you?"
"You just rest. I'll do all the work."
- When did I say that? - You said, "You just rest."
But you're not working hard.
I didn't know there would be so much to do.
You get tired from just picking a few chilli peppers.
You know I've never done this before. It's hard for me.
This is my daily routine.
People have to move around.
People get sick when they become too lazy.
You have to move around a lot.
The more you eat, the more you should move.
If you start something, do it right.
She's going to nag me all day.
- Listen to her. - What's this?
Half of these are leaves.
It'll take a long time to remove the leaves.
You told me to pick them like that.
What's this?
(She bombards Hye Jin with sharp comments.)
You should've done it like I did.
I can't do it like that.
You're making me work twice.
You told me to just pick the chillies.
You should've removed the leaves off...
before putting them in the basket.
Let's go.
Were you trying to take those home with you?
I didn't have anywhere to put them.
(She hid the chillies in the pocket of her long pants.)
(They're done picking chillies while bickering with each other.)
Do it like this.
(They move onto washing the chillies.)
I'll hold the hose while you wash them.
Are you trying to do the easy part?
(She dumps the chillies into the water.)
You can do this alone. Wash them and put them here.
You can do this after I leave.
Help us while you're at it.
I'll fertilise the garden.
(The chillies are piled up.)
(Hye Jin ends up washing the chillies by herself.)
(Am I doing it right?)
(She washes them one by one.)
Mum, hurry up and come here.
My hands are cold.
You won't finish that in the next couple of days at that pace.
Come on.
(I'll have to take over.)
Should I throw this out?
Yes.
(This is how you wash them.)
You're of no help.
(Look how well I do it.)
(She does it in a totally different way.)
(That's awesome, Mum.)
We're done.
(They're done. Thanks to Hye Jin's mum.)
(They'll plant the cabbage seedlings next.)
- Sit, Boksil. - We have so much to do.
Sit, sit.
Put that down and try it again. She'll do all kinds of tricks.
I don't want to get bitten.
She doesn't bite.
(You don't even know how to wash chillies.)
I don't have to dig too deep, do I?
I just need to dig deep enough for the seedlings.
(She digs.)
I'm very good at this.
Mum, I'm so good at this.
(She looks classy, digging up the garden.)
Mum.
I found something I'm good at.
(She giggles to herself.)
(I might have found a new talent, Mum.)
All right.
Good job.
I'm good, right?
I'm better than a cow.
A cow?
(After her mum agrees with her...)
I want to go back to Seoul.
(I want to go home.)
Should I water it?
Yes.
Don't step on it.
- I'm so tired. - Don't dig too deep.
I'm not digging deep.
Do it like I did.
That's what I'm doing.
(Her mum starts nagging again once they're done digging.)
I'm just not going to eat kimchi.
You love kimchi.
Don't get them dirty.
That's hard.
Would you like it if I put dirt on your face?
(She won't stop nagging.)
Look at the ones I planted.
They're not in a straight line.
Why is that over there?
I don't think this is my forte.
What's your forte, then?
Tall people are rarely good at this.
Short people are more skilled.
Why are you dissing me?
(Hye Jin's criticising DNA is from her mum.)
(Watching them fight is fun.)
(They have finished planting cabbages...)
(while Hye Jin's mum nagged her.)
(That will be delicious.)
(Hye Jin sneezes.)
I sneeze when it's hot and when it's cold.
Why did I have a daughter like you?
It's weird.
(You're my mum.)
(She cooked marsh snails for her daughter.)
(She eats it.)
- It's good, isn't it? - Yes, it is.
It isn't salty.
It's perfect.
I wanted to become a model when I was young.
I'd have become a model if I were taller.
I went to take an ultrasound when I was pregnant with you.
Two doctors told me they couldn't see the head.
You're going to make people think that I have a small head.
You were covering your head with your arms and legs.
That's what they said at the hospital.
They couldn't see your head because of your long arms and legs.
(She was born to be a model.)
(She had long arms and legs since she was a baby.)
(This is Hye Jin and her mum.)
(She goes into her room after finishing eating.)
All right.
(Paintings fill the room.)
(Hye Jin's mum paints in her free time.)
You should buy one of my paintings.
Mum, I'll take this one.
Do you have a place to hang that?
That one?
- Aren't small ones cheaper? - That comes in a series.
I don't need a series of paintings.
It looks nicer together.
Eight of them go together.
Eight?
- Yes. - No. Four is perfect.
Does it cost 10 dollars each?
Like this?
Yes.
- How much are they? - They're 1,000 dollars each.
That's too expensive.
It's supposed to be more expensive when you sell it to your daughter.
- When you paint... - Give me a discount.
The smallest is the size of a card.
That's size one.
That painting is size three.
Give me a discount.
I was hoping to sell some of my paintings.
Please give me a discount.
Haven't you heard of the celebrity discount?
Let's go to the market.
(She goes to the market with her mum.)
Close the window, please.
(Off they go.)
(They drive along the suburban road...)
(to get to the market.)
Are we there?
(Why did they stop?)
(They wanted to go on a full stomach.)
(She struggles with her jeans.)
Are you unbuttoning your jeans?
These are skinny jeans.
It might be hard to eat.
(The truck speeds past them.)
(Cars zoom by.)
(The tent shakes.)
You'll need earplugs when you're eating here.
This adds to the fun.
It's no fun.
It doesn't taste as good...
if you take it home and eat without these noises.
I'd get too distracted while eating.
(This is the noodle shop next to the Autobahn.)
(The noodles are here.)
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
- Thank you. - Wait.
Don't add too much.
Leave the big one. That's too big.
- Your stomach will hurt later. - Take the small one.
(Another car zooms by.)
Do you know what this is?
(They mix in the chilli with the noise of cars in the background.)
- They're chilli peppers. - They're chungyang chilli peppers.
Did you add this?
Yes, I did.
Add the kimchi as well.
I know how to eat my food.
I'm eating it.
You always get annoyed...
when I'm trying to be nice to you.
It makes me uncomfortable.
You should wait until you have a daughter.
I won't have a daughter.
I'm a daughter, too.
If you do just one percent of what I do, you'd be a good daughter.
Don't try to force filial duties.
Do as I say, or else you'll regret it after I die.
(She's speechless.)
(They bicker about everything...)
(as they enjoy the noodles by the Autobahn.)
(They finish their meals as they listen to cars passing by.)
Let's go.
Shake off the dirt before you get in.
There you go. Are you happy?
Let's go now.
(The bickering pair leaves.)
(They go for a while...)
(before they arrive at the market.)
Mum, it's quiet here.
- We're the only ones here. - It's going to close soon.
Is it about to close?
(She pinches Hye Jin's side.)
Are you telling me to be nice to you?
She's asking me to be nice to her.
I've lived my whole life like this. I can't suddenly change.
That's why men don't like you.
Why would you say that?
Don't do that.
You should know when to stop.
I saw it on TV.
Stop it or I'm going home.
But I saw it on TV.
(It's so much fun to make fun of Hye Jin.)
Mum.
I wish my mum were here.
(They look like sisters as they joke around.)
My mum is too strong.
My mum always told me that I was like the eldest child.
I never got into trouble.
I grew up without getting into trouble.
I grew up with my grandparents.
So, my mum goes to the market every day.
I don't know how I did it, now that I think about it.
I followed her around and carried all the bags.
I'm the eldest daughter who's more like a son.
That's what I think.
(They come home from the market.)
I've gotten old.
(These are the items she bought at the market.)
Going to the market has made me age.
Clean the green onions and chop them.
(They start getting ready for dinner.)
- This is how you cut it. - That's right, I forgot.
It stings my nose.
I'm preparing you for marriage.
You're tall, but the table is too low.
My back hurts.
(She can't stop nagging even when cooking.)
My eyes sting.
(Her eyes hurt.)
You should put green onions in your mouth.
That will take away the sting.
Chew on it.
Keep chewing it.
- I can't see. - You have to chew.
Chewing it will take away the sting.
I can't see a thing.
It hurts.
(It stings.)
Mum, what should I do?
(Her moaning fills the kitchen.)
Can we eat that?
(I can't open my eyes.)
Oh, no.
Mum...
Can we eat that?
That's why you should listen to me.
- Mum. - Bring the paper cups.
It hurts so much.
Bring the paper cups.
I can't see anything.
It stings so bad.
That's why I said we should wash them first.
(I think it's because of your nagging.)
Oh, my gosh.
This is unbelievable.
Sit down, Mum.
(This meal was prepared with tears.)
Shake it.
(She shakes it.)
- You have to shake it well. - More?
Yes, since it's a big bottle.
(She shakes it well.)
(Shall we try it?)
Pour it.
You're spilling good alcohol.
- Cheers. - Cheers. Thank you.
(She takes a sip.)
That's not how you drink it. Taste it first.
What should I do with you?
You're creating your own image.
I don't believe it.
This is how you drink it.
You're going to get in trouble with dad.
I only drink when you're here.
You're a liar. I know you always drink.
(They won't stop bickering even as they grill meat.)
Thank you for coming to see me.
(She makes a wrap for her daughter.)
You should open your mouth, not take it with your hand.
You're mean.
Don't make me uncomfortable.
That's why you're still single.
(I don't feel like eating any more.)
You won't find a boyfriend until you feel comfortable with this.
I'll do those things with my boyfriend.
I'm trying to teach you.
You should make a wrap and feed your boyfriend first.
I do that for men.
- Are you sure? - Of course.
Then why are you still single at age 35?
I'm 34. Don't you know how old your daughter is?
Are you 34?
You only have a few months left.
I'm turning 60 in a few months.
But my daughter doesn't even have a boyfriend.
Mum.
- I'll get married next year. - Next year?
This is why you don't have a boyfriend.
If I fed you, you should feed me this time.
You never learn.
She blames me for not cooking for her when she was young.
Why are you taking it from me?
Open your mouth. Here you go.
Open your mouth.
Don't use your hands.
I'm just trying to hold your hand.
I don't want you to rub it all over my face.
(You aren't trying to rub it on my face, aren't you?)
All right, I won't stuff it up your nose.
(They joke around like friends.)
You don't trust me since I'm always joking.
It's burning. We talked too much.
Let's eat now.
You won't gain weight if you talk this much as you eat.
That's nonsense.
Guk Joo said you don't gain weight if you enjoy yourself while eating.
I wish that were true.
(She watches all the episodes.)
- People keep asking. - Asking what?
If I really eat sundaeguk.
(Everyone was shocked...)
(to see the top model eat sundaeguk for breakfast.)
Of course you do.
We even had sundaeguk at your first super model contest.
Do you remember that day?
- It was near Coex. - The Textile Centre building.
I was a judge there 10 years later.
That's funny, isn't it? I was eliminated at that spot.
But I became a judge and even did a show there.
I looked at your heels when you came back from the US.
I saw something on your heel that's the size of half an egg.
I asked you what that was.
- Americans are tall and have... - They have big feet.
But you had to share the same shoes.
So, you'd stuff tissue in the shoes and get blisters on your feet.
You had calluses as big as eggs.
I remember crying when I saw that.
It's what everyone goes through.
But other people think it's so easy...
when you went through so many hardships.
(Tears well up in her eyes as she thinks of the past.)
It makes me want to cry.
My mum...
is like a sturdy mountain I can lean on.
I don't think I can be as strong as her.
I ask myself if I can.
She's a strong woman.
She'll always be my number one role model.
(My mum is my number one role model.)
You said you're going to be a model until you're 70.
That's what you said.
I'll do it occasionally when I'm 70.
I'm going to work non-stop until I'm 70,
- but I'll retire and... - Who's going to hire you?
You're right.
That's right. I'm not sure if I'll get any jobs.
What I honestly want for you...
is instead of getting married,
to travel around the world freely.
You once told me.
You wanted to travel the world and write a book about it.
You wanted to write a book.
How great would that be?
You can travel with me and write that book.
Have one more perilla leaf before you leave.
I can't drink and drive.
Go home.
Looking at you will keep me up all night.
(She's always on Hye Jin's side, no matter how much they argue.)
(This is the sweet life of Hye Jin and her mum.)
(This is Yeon Koung's home in Turkey under the clear sky.)
(She's taking a nap after unpacking.)
(She's fast asleep...)
(with her feet sticking out from under the covers.)
(Ezan is the Islamic call to prayer.)
(It happens five time a day.)
(She wakes up to the ezan.)
(I should get up.)
(How time flies.)
I should get ready to work out.
Oh, my...
I organised everything except my shoes.
I'm so tired.
Oh.
(I have to clean up.)
(Her suitcase if full of sneakers.)
(The space for her shoes is as big as any other room.)
(This is how important my feet are.)
(She divides them by their purpose.)
(Is she done already?)
(This suitcase is full of shoes, too.)
Why do I have so many?
They take up a lot of space because my feet are big.
I don't think they'll all fit.
(You have so many pairs of sneakers.)
I don't know how many pairs I have.
I wonder how many I have.
Let's see...
(Let's see...)
(She can't get rid of the ezan in the background.)
Can I keep talking?
(Please wait a minute.)
When I first heard this,
I joked around and sang along to it.
So I almost got beat up by my friends.
I was doing it on the street,
but I was surprised to see everyone glaring at me.
I love sneakers.
Several are for when I work out.
I think that's why I have so many.
If I place one facing forward,
I place the next one backward to make more pairs fit.
(She lines them up.)
There you go.
(She's done organising her shoes.)
I'm hungry.
These are dirty.
I'll have to wash them.
I'm going to hand wash them.
(She washes them right away.)
(She washes her socks.)
(Her waist is way above the sink.)
(She pulls the sock over the faucet.)
(She smells them.)
(She doesn't like having dirty clothes lying around.)
I washed that five months ago.
(She staggers.)
It's still there.
Oh, that hurts.
Let's get washed up.
I'll brush my teeth.
(She brushes her teeth.)
(It takes her a while to bend down because of her height.)
(I feel so refreshed.)
(She puts on a headband.)
(It has cute bunny ears.)
(It puts her in a good mood.)
I should wash my face now.
(Loaded with cuteness, she starts washing her face.)
(She cleans her face meticulously.)
(The queen of volleyball who rules the court...)
(is so feminine when she washes her face.)
(I feel so clean and confident.)
(After she's done, she cleans her bathroom sink.)
(No moisture is allowed in here.)
(Both my face and my bathroom are clean now.)
(She applies a skincare product.)
(Mirror, my mirror)
(My skin looks good today.)
Why do I look so pretty today?
(She's ready to go out.)
(Shall I head out now?)
(It's a beautiful sunny afternoon.)
(Yeon Koung strolls with ease.)
(The autumn breeze feels refreshing.)
What a beautiful day.
It's such a gorgeous day.
The water is so clean.
It usually doesn't look this clean in the winter.
What happened?
(She walks along the cobalt blue trail.)
The water is usually not this clean.
(Her pleasant walk continues.)
(Yeon Koung arrives...)
(at the restaurant she visits very frequently.)
(I'm hungry.)
(She chooses a table at the patio to enjoy the gorgeous weather.)
(She groans.)
(It takes her a while to sit down due to her long legs.)
(Hello)
(What shall I eat?)
(I'd like one of this.)
(Is there a grilled dish?)
(We have grilled chicken.)
(It's a Chinese-style dish.)
(Oh, is it cooked with soy sauce?)
(That sounds good. Does it also come with rice?)
I think I can get by in Turkish. I mean, I won't have to starve.
I don't think I can say that my Turkish is good,
but I think it's all right since I have no problem ordering food.
(I think my Turkish is all right.)
Gosh, I'm so hungry.
(I'm hungry.)
I'm hungry, my stomach is empty
(Hurry up, please.)
Hurry up and give me my food.
(I was just kidding.)
(She's saying that she's joking, but she seems pretty desperate.)
(Let's see.)
(Yeon Koung is calling someone.)
- Hello? - Hey.
I'm hungry, so I came to grab a bite to eat.
The food is taking a long time, so I was voicing my concerns.
It's here now, though.
Really?
I have to eat now. I'll call you again if I need your help.
But when I was taking a shower earlier,
- Yes. - there was no hot water.
Seriously? That's going to drive me crazy again.
There was no hot water. I tried letting it run for five minutes.
(Anyway, I have to go eat now.)
- Really? - Yes.
All right. I'll try talking to them again.
Okay, thanks.
- Bye. - Bye.
(She ordered deep-fried goat cheese...)
(as well as chicken with rice.)
(Delicious)
This is delicious.
(I'm so happy.)
(She eats these dishes often when she's in Turkey.)
Did I order too much food?
(I wanted to eat both, though.)
I was so hungry.
(It's delicious.)
(This is why I come here.)
Gosh, this is so good.
(She looks around.)
(Excuse me.)
(I'd like another bowl of rice, please.)
I'm eating so much.
I always eat two bowls of rice.
There's never an exception. One bowl isn't enough.
I kept saying, "Was it this delicious?" I really enjoyed it.
There are many Turkish dishes...
that are similar to Korean food.
There are many dishes that I like.
(Her plates are clean now.)
Gosh, I'm so full. What if I can't exercise today?
I should get going. I don't have much time.
(She has training in three hours.)
(She trudges along with her long legs.)
Oh, my.
Hi.
(The kid's height is below her waist.)
(Yeon Koung, I'm jealous of your long legs.)
(Yeon Koung arrives...)
(at a weekly market.)
(You can find anything and everything here.)
(This Turkish weekly market looks exactly like...)
(the Korean traditional markets.)
Is there anything I need?
(Is there anything I need?)
(She definitely stands out in the midst of the crowd.)
(She arrives at a fruit store.)
These peaches look delicious.
(These peaches look delicious.)
(How much are these?)
(1 dollar and 30 cents)
- How many will I get for that? - 1kg.
(How many peaches do I get for 1kg?)
(You can buy 4 peaches for 1 dollar and 30 cents.)
(You said it's a dollar and 30 cents, right?)
(She stares at the peaches he handed to her.)
(You only picked good ones, right?)
(She's paranoid.)
(Yeon Koung is a smart shopper.)
I want to buy more fruit.
(I see bananas.)
(How much is this?)
(It's a dollar and 80 cents.)
(I want a discount.)
(Can you give me a discount?)
(How about a dollar and 45 cents?)
(Let's settle at a dollar and 45 cents.)
(She just pays him the amount.)
(Thank you.)
I just take my chances.
I just ask them for a discount.
If they start looking uneasy or angry,
I stop right away.
The price they initially said must be good enough.
Then I just give them what they ask for with a smile on my face.
(She's carrying so many things.)
(She returns home with her two hands filled with stuff.)
Gosh.
(Gosh, these are so heavy.)
(Feeling rushed, she takes her shoes off carelessly.)
(Why did I buy so much stuff?)
(She bought a ton of groceries.)
(She starts organising them right away.)
(Her refrigerator looks so tidy and clean.)
(She slouches.)
As you know, I'm much taller than most people.
It is hard for me to store things in bottom drawers.
Nevertheless, I'm very used to it now,
so it doesn't really feel uncomfortable any more.
I just go, "My back hurts."
And I bend down to get what I need.
(She even folds used plastic bags neatly...)
(and puts them in a drawer where she keeps them.)
Will this taste okay?
(Will this taste okay?)
(She'll make bulgogi for dinner.)
This looks very fresh.
(She cuts them with scissors instead of a knife.)
(Now she just needs the bulgogi sauce.)
It expired on July 4, 2016.
Darn it.
(Other condiments will be okay, right?)
July 4.
(It's also expired.)
May 24.
Everything is expired.
(Everything expired while she was at the Olympics.)
This is okay until 2017. Good.
(She gets up in excitement.)
I should throw out all the rest.
(I should throw out all the rest.)
(She has to use galbi sauce instead of bulgogi sauce.)
(She's laughing at herself.)
(She pours the entire bottle.)
(She'll let it sit in the fridge.)
I hope the meat gets marinated well.
(She'll wait until it's well marinated.)
I have to take these, too.
Okay.
(She takes three pairs of running shoes.)
I have all the shoes I need.
(Each pair has its own usage.)
(She's returning to Fenerbahce upon arriving in Turkey.)
I have to take a shower after. I should also bring my toiletries.
(I need to bring my toiletries, too.)
My shampoo and conditioner.
I need my toner and moisturiser, too.
I got my shampoo.
(She's double-checking what she needs.)
My body oil.
(She's so organised and meticulous.)
All right. Let's get going now.
(She changed into her workout clothes.)
(She finally leaves for her training with a ton of stuff.)
(It's 5:30pm.)
(Yeon Koung leaves home excitedly.)
What happened to my car?
(It got a scratch while she was away.)
It got a scratch.
(She sounds so nonchalant about it as if it's not her car.)
(She's so cool.)
(She struggles to get in.)
(She has to slouch a lot to get in the car because of her long legs.)
(She leaves for the gym.)
("If It's the Same" by Brown Eyed Soul)
(She hums.)
(This is the route she takes when she drives to the gym.)
(It's been five months.)
(It's the Fenerbahce Gymnasium.)
(Yeon Koung has been training here for the last six years.)
(A few staff members are chatting outside.)
(I'm back!)
(He runs towards her because he's so excited to see her.)
(Welcome back.)
(He gives her a hug.)
- How have you been? - Welcome. We've been well.
(The equipment manager also gives her a warm welcome.)
(Thank goodness. You're finally back.)
(Yeon Koung, you look great.)
(She's also so popular among staff members.)
(Who is that over there?)
(She's happy to see her team members and colleagues.)
(They give each other a big hug.)
(Hello!)
(Everyone has been waiting for Yeon Koung's return.)
(Tell us about your club, Fenerbahce.)
It's a renowned Turkish volleyball team.
I've been a member of this team for the last six years.
We have many fans who are rooting for our team.
I've been with the team for a long time,
so our fans have come up with a separate cheering song for me.
Our fans always cheer for us so passionately,
and I'm truly grateful for all of their support.
(It's Yeon Koung.)
(Yeon Koung takes a photo with her fan.)
Thank you.
(Her team members are warming up prior to their training.)
(They welcome Yeon Koung with a big round of applause.)
(Are you jumping right back into your practice upon arriving?)
I usually don't practise much on the first day of my return,
yet I'm joining later compared to other team members.
So, I wanted to be there today.
I hadn't seen my team and staff members for a while,
so seeing them today made me very happy.
I'm very much looking forward to this upcoming season.
(All team and staff members are gathered after five months.)
(It's Coach Marcello Abbondanza.)
(Let's do a good job again this season.)
(They start practising right away.)
(First, they warm up through stretching exercises.)
(One, two, one, two)
(She's so focused.)
(The real training begins now.)
(The defence drill starts.)
(The team members do a good job of blocking powerful spikes.)
(Everyone is practising with all of their might.)
(Yeon Koung is not participating in the training today.)
I think it's a recovery training.
I haven't been able to train or practise properly...
ever since the Olympics ended,
so I should start slowly with cardiopulmonary exercises...
and cardiovascular exercises.
I think my coach wanted to help me speed up my recovery...
through sweating.
I finished it off with stretching exercises,
which will help me regain my flexibility...
and speed up the recovery time.
(It's 9pm.)
(She's exhausted from the three-hour training.)
(Feeling very tired, she arrives at home.)
(No one welcomes her in her empty flat.)
(Loneliness fills up her heart.)
When I see my empty flat, I feel lonesome.
It makes me feel empty and lonely.
I'm so tired
I'm tired to death
I should have dinner.
Where's the meat I marinated?
Will this be okay?
(She marinated meat to make bulgogi.)
I hope the sauce is absorbed into the meat by now.
(Scallions and beef are the only ingredients she used.)
Oh, my.
It smells good.
I should take out some side dishes, too.
(It's seasoned squid.)
This is high in calcium.
(Seasoned squid, stir-fried anchovies, pickled radish)
(It's fermented squid.)
(She doesn't take out more than what she'll eat.)
(She plates everything neatly even though she's eating alone.)
(Shall I taste this bulgogi now?)
(This is the taste I've been craving.)
I didn't know how to cook at all.
I've also lived in Japan for two years,
but I rarely cooked when I was living there.
There's no Korean restaurant near where I live,
so I had to start teaching myself how to cook.
Now, I feel that I'm beginning to develop my own cooking tricks.
My cooking skills have improved so much compared to before.
It's bulgogi with rice.
(Why is she going to her living room when her dinner is ready?)
My laptop
(She looks up Korean TV shows to watch during dinner.)
This is the first time I'm cooking for my mother,
- Oh, my. - so I don't know where to start.
(She's finally ready to eat.)
He's knowledgeable.
This tells you everything.
(She watches a Korean variety show while eating her dinner.)
Now, I need salt.
This is delicious.
(Why do you watch variety shows while eating?)
When you eat alone, you just eat without thinking about anything.
I like to feel as if there are people around me all the time,
so I turn it on for the sound and dialogues.
That's why I always watch variety shows.
I also used to watch dramas.
However, once I start watching a drama,
I can't sleep because I get so curious about following episodes.
I used to watch a bunch of episodes at once and realised...
that getting addicted to dramas can affect my life negatively.
That's why I stopped watching dramas.
I leave variety shows on while doing everything at home.
(She picks up her laptop.)
(She's watching the show as she's carrying it.)
(She's even cleaning up while watching the show.)
(She puts leftover side dishes back into the containers.)
(She carries her laptop everywhere she goes in the kitchen.)
(Her eyes are fixated on the screen.)
Why are your eyes closed?
(She's watching while doing the dishes.)
(She finished cleaning up so quickly.)
(She brought her laptop into her bedroom.)
The internet isn't working.
The internet isn't working
(I'll just stop watching it, then.)
(She's seriously so cool.)
I should go to bed now.
(She's holding a facial mask in her hands.)
(She no longer looks like a tomboy.)
(She's so feminine.)
(This cute girl keeps surprising us with unexpected charms.)
Gosh. My back hurts.
(Don't you find living alone overseas challenging?)
I found it so difficult when I first came here.
I didn't know what to do.
"What should I do when I feel lonely?"
I had no idea because I had no experience before.
Getting through each day was a challenge in and of itself.
But now, I have a better idea...
of how I should handle such situations.
Compared to my very first year here,
I'm much more experienced now and I find it a bit easier.
Good night.
(The first night in Turkey after being away for five months)
(Yeon Koung's life in Turkey has begun again.)
("I Live Alone in Turkey" isn't over yet.)
(She'll show us how she enjoys her life in Turkey.)
It's coming. Yes!
Can't they see this?
Istanbul shines.
(At times like these, taking a selfie is a must.)
(The queen of volleyball goes out on the town.)
When tall girls wear short trousers,
it looks as if they couldn't find anything in their sizes.
I found one that fits me.
(She gets teased while trying to eat ice cream.)
Gosh, seriously.
Darn it. Please give it to me now!
(She dines with her colleagues.)
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Don't just sit there. Go clean up the room.
Answer me.
(Yeon Koung's single life in Turkey continues.)
(I Live Alone)
I used to have a good body.
(Let's go over to C Jamm's house.)
(C Jamm is quite the celebrity now.)
It's so sweet.
(What's he looking at through the armless glasses?)
I used to have a good body.
Oh, the old days.
I don't want to look weak in front of the whole world.
I used to be ripped.
Those days are behind me now.
It's a weird feeling.
I used to work out a lot until two years ago.
I worked out every day,
but I started drinking.
That's how I became like this.
I feel like I should start working out again.
I'm not tall, so I should have a good body.
I have to make up for my height.
(He's eating chicken breasts now.)
It looks really bad.
(He doesn't season the chicken.)
(He's calling his gym trainer.)
- Hello? - Hello.
What a surprise.
(You can tell how long it's been by the way he greets him.)
I made up my mind.
Come to the gym.
I think I should.
I'm boiling chicken breasts.
Come right after that. Let's do some chest workouts.
Okay.
I'm going to push myself from the start.
(He's acting tough.)
Take it slow.
- Call me when you get here. - Okay.
All right, let's do it.
(I'll cheer for you.)
(He's adding soy sauce.)
I'll pretend it's a steak.
It's well done.
(It's a steak.)
(It's bad.)
(He stops eating and picks up the phone.)
I wonder if there are any eating shows with chicken breasts.
I found one.
He doesn't look like he's enjoying it.
(It doesn't look like he's enjoying his chicken breasts.)
(Let's just get it down fast.)
(It's tough.)
I'm choking.
(He brings out his sportswear.)
(He's on his way to the gym.)
Here I go.
(He hasn't been to the gym for a long time.)
(There are many people in here even this early in the morning.)
(C Jamm has stepped inside.)
(Nice to see you again.)
Hello.
Get changed.
(There's no time for greetings.)
Where are you taking me?
Is this the changing room?
(The weights are waiting for him.)
(It's time to meet his new friends.)
Let's start with 10kg.
(They're going easy at first.)
(I got this.)
Straighten your back.
You can do this.
Get them up. There you go.
(Ugliness alert)
One, two. Bring them in.
(His lips are also moving.)
Eight, Nine. There you go.
10. Relax your eyes a bit.
One.
You want to be a sexy rapper, right?
Get them up. Okay.
(He's determined to be a sexy rapper.)
Let's try 12kg.
(10kg wasn't as easy as he thought.)
(I want to give up already.)
(No, I shouldn't.)
You should focus your strength on the chest, not the eyes.
You want to be a sexy rapper, right?
Let's do this.
(He's motivated.)
You can do this.
- What's wrong? - This is heavy.
It's 12kg.
You can do this.
This is a chance to redeem yourself.
Get them up. There you go.
Focus. Two.
Get them up. Five.
Relax your eyes. Six.
Seven. Focus.
(He can't stop grunting.)
Six. Don't move your shoulders.
Seven. You're doing well.
Pretend that your fans are watching you right now.
- Go home. - Is it too hard?
Go home, all of you.
(I'm not ready to show you yet.)
Ready.
(He keeps working hard to make a proud body.)
This is the lightest one. Stop putting on a show.
(It's only 2.5kg.)
(He's putting on that face again.)
(I can't lose to 2.5kg.)
(I'm going to be a sexy rapper.)
(He's not stopping.)
(They're done with the chest exercise.)
That was good.
Get some water.
That's it for the chest exercise.
Let's do some cardio now. Come over here.
(It's a group exercise.)
Come in here.
Say hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
(This wasn't what he had in mind.)
He'll be doing the group exercise with us today.
Have a good time.
- Are you a celebrity? - Are you the rapper?
Yes.
(He feels good that they recognised him.)
- Hello. - Hello.
- We're doing strength training. - I see.
Let's begin with some squats.
Spread your legs to the shoulder width.
Spread a bit more.
Put your arms forward.
Give me 10 squats.
Your thighs should be parallel to one another.
Go down again.
(That's the correct way to squat.)
Two. Go down again.
(He's not doing it right.)
(He keeps missing the timing.)
Stay on your feet. Six.
(It looks like whack-a-mole.)
Again.
Let's pump up the body. Bounce.
(Bounce?)
One, two, three, four.
Five, Six, Seven, Eight.
One more time.
(He's struggling.)
Get back down.
(He's only getting started.)
Relax your legs.
(He looks tired already.)
(We haven't even started yet.)
Put your left leg up front and your right leg behind.
Give me 10 lunges.
(They're working specifically on their thighs.)
(The ladies at the back are looking strong.)
Hold your position.
(Hold your position.)
Okay. Start bouncing.
(Start bouncing.)
(His legs must feel like they're about to blow up.)
Hold for three seconds.
(Oh, my goodness.)
Hold still.
Stand up.
(They finish in still motion.)
Let's go again with opposite legs.
(Is that all you got?)
I was the worst one there.
At first, I thought...
I should pretend to struggle...
and go easy with the ladies.
I was mistaken.
They were really strong.
Six. This is the last one.
(I feel like giving up.)
Put your elbows on your knees.
(They look relaxed.)
Raise your butt.
Close your legs.
Go down.
Start bouncing.
(They bounce again.)
(A lady dropped out.)
Hold still.
Hold.
Spread your arms.
(You got me.)
(This is the hardest part.)
Go the opposite direction.
(He's struggling.)
Breathe in.
Let's go until the 25-minute mark.
Hold still for 10 seconds.
(They're doing planks for the remaining 10 minutes.)
10 seconds.
(Why aren't you doing it?)
Raise your right leg.
(Oh, gosh.)
Lower your left leg and raise the right.
This is the last set.
(It's not the last set.)
Move your leg in circles.
(I can't move my legs.)
Move the opposite leg.
(He's screaming silently.)
Hold still.
Three, two, one.
(He cries.)
(You're not doing it properly.)
(Why don't you give it a try?)
(He's spacing out.)
(Do it like this.)
Give me five more.
The trainer kept pointing me out.
I was a beginner.
Why was he so hard on me?
It wasn't fair.
What I want to know is this.
If the workout goes on like this...
for an hour without taking a break,
can the trainer also put up with it?
That's what I want to know.
He stopped doing it with us all of a sudden.
He just talked us through it.
Give me 20.
One.
(Music comes out.)
Six.
(What's this song?)
- That's my song. - Eight.
(Nobody's interested.)
That's my song.
(He's happy.)
That's my song.
(He put his song on.)
(He's a good guy.)
(I take that back.)
Hold still. Keep it up.
(They're holding still again.)
Don't put it down. Keep it up high.
(Why are you doing this to me?)
Hold still like this.
Start bouncing.
Give me 20.
One, two, three, four.
(He's tapping out.)
Hold still. Keep it up.
(I thought you could tap out from it.)
(You're so cold-hearted.)
There you go. Breathe.
Get back up.
That's it for today. Good job, everyone.
Thank you.
(He looks like a zombie.)
How was that?
Was it not too difficult?
(Are you kidding me?)
Good job, everyone. That's it for today.
When people think of C Jamm,
I want them to think that I'm cute and sexy.
I want to see the two hashtags.
I'm going to work out...
until the day comes when I go up on stage shirtless.
I'll get it done.
Let's take a picture together. Can you take it for me?
Smile.
(It's copy and paste.)
(He treats all of his fans the same.)
Okay.
Thank you.
(It was rough, but he took his first step in becoming fit.)
I bet the trainer can't do the entire routine.
(He won't stop until he becomes a sexy rapper.)
(Let's go over to Yong Geon's house.)
(Yong Geon is going over his script.)
My role is always the CEO.
(He's playing a CEO again.)
I must look like one.
Let's see.
I should eat something.
(Yong Geon forgot to have lunch reading the script.)
What should I eat?
I'm always worried about what to eat.
Let's see here.
The fridge is full, but there's nothing I can eat.
Let's see. What's this?
(He spilled some of the only food he has in the fridge.)
Don't be flustered.
(He's having lunch with what he can find in the fridge.)
What kind of CEO eats like this?
I'm only a CEO on television.
(In dramas, he lives in mansions.)
(The table is always full of expensive gourmet food.)
Happy birthday.
(This is what I'm talking about.)
(The reality is different.)
I tend to eat instant meals or ramyeon.
(Yong Geon eats the meal by himself.)
(A piece of dry seaweed comforts him.)
(I can't live like this.)
(Is he calling for help?)
- Hello. - That was fast.
Hello.
- How did you sleep? - Good.
I was having lunch and I remembered you.
What do you think about me...
taking cooking lessons?
Why would you want to do that?
People take cooking lessons a lot these days.
Sure. You could make a new hobby.
It's a good idea, isn't it?
Isn't it where old ladies go?
- Old ladies? - Yes.
I could meet someone there.
(He's laughing.)
I'm just joking. I want to learn how to cook.
I don't think it's a bad idea.
I just wanted to ask for your opinion.
- Okay, dad. - All right. Have a good day.
I've been living alone for a while now.
I've never cared about what I eat,
but it's not good for my health.
It's a bit depressing when I have nothing to eat at home.
That's why I want to take cooking lessons.
(It's a cooking institute nearby.)
Is this the place?
(Yong Geon came straight to a cooking institute nearby.)
Hello.
I was the one who called earlier.
I'm Kim Yong Geon.
- Hello. - Nice to meet you.
- Come inside. - Okay.
Take a seat.
- I'll sit right here. - Okay.
I've had the thought for some time.
I walked past this place a lot.
I think it'll be useful if I learn to cook.
It took courage to come here.
Thanks for coming.
Did you have anything specific in mind...
which lessons you want to take?
We give lessons for obtaining certificates.
It's an official certificate, so the menu is already chosen.
However, you could make them at home occasionally.
Are there students as old as me?
Last year, we had a lady in her late 60s.
She gained her certificate.
If you take your time,
you'll definitely get it done as long as you put efforts in.
- Does it depend on how hard I try? - Yes.
I'll set my goal...
to obtain the certificate.
I'm going to give it a try.
Now that I've decided to learn,
I don't want to loosen up by learning as a hobby.
If I have a certain goal, I can push myself.
I want to challenge myself.
(He'll be participating in the lesson.)
Hello.
Nice to meet you.
I'm a student as well. I'm here to learn.
Nice to meet you.
Let's get started. Come on up.
Gather up here.
- Should I stand there? - Yes. Come closer.
Today, we will learn how to make yukwonjeon and pickled cucumber.
If you look at the time,
you have 25 minutes for pickled cucumber...
and 30 minutes for yukwonjeon.
Let's get started.
When you stir-fry the cucumber, you have to take the seed out.
You have to make even cuts.
Make them all even like this.
It's a lot of work.
- I'll need to work fast. - That's right.
(Yong Geon has much to learn.)
- Crush the garlic. - I see.
Go back and forth like this.
(He's trying not to miss anything.)
Put it on a cloth and press with your hands.
You want to squeeze all the water out.
It's just like last time. Slide your knife like this.
This is it.
I've got it in my head.
I can't usually stay on my feet for long.
I forgot about the pain.
The lesson was easy to understand.
Everyone was listening and watching closely.
I just liked being in the same place with them.
(The dishes are complete under everyone's observation.)
I felt like a student again.
Opportunities like that don't usually knock.
It reminded me of the old days.
That's what you'll be making today.
Nice work.
(Yukwonjeon and pickled cucumber are complete.)
Who do you want to cook for after you learn how to cook?
I want to cook for my sons.
- I see. - I want them to taste my food.
She likes the sound of that.
- I want to show my sons. - I'm a big fan.
- Me, too. - Thanks.
- Have you seen his movie? - I saw it on the day it came out.
Did you?
- I'm glad to hear that. - She must be a big fan.
(Yong Geon has obtained a future daughter-in-law.)
It's your turn now.
Let's get started.
(He doesn't know what to do.)
I'll be watching over your shoulder.
You should start washing the ingredients.
Am I supposed to wash it with salt?
(He's very thorough.)
Don't put too much pressure. You're going to break it.
It wasn't that hard.
(Other students are slicing the cucumber.)
Don't forget to put the ingredients on separate plates.
Oh, no.
- Should I do cucumber first? - Yes.
Slice them up first.
- It's my first time. - Yes. Hold it like that.
(He's taking his time.)
You're very calm.
I want to be careful. I have a knife in my hand.
(She's very good.)
(His future daughter-in-law is good with the knife.)
Place your other hand like this.
There you go.
Follow the knife.
That's right.
Mince it more.
Yes. There you go.
(He feels good about the compliments.)
Do you remember how I crushed the tofu?
Use the cloth and squeeze the water out.
(He's putting all of his efforts in squeezing the tofu.)
The table might break.
(The water has been squeezed out.)
- Good. - Should I go again?
No. This is good.
Is it good?
(Oh, my.)
- It's perfect. - Is it?
Yes.
You're really good.
(He feels comfortable with the knife.)
There you go.
That's it.
(He's mixing the ingredients.)
(The instructor left to check on other students.)
(He takes a glance.)
Can you take a look at mine?
How's this?
- Should I mix some more? - Oh, my.
(Oh, my.)
- It's really good. - Is it?
- Yes. - Oh, my.
- Are you serious? - Yes.
Everything looks good except for the cucumber.
Is that good for now?
Yes. You must have a talent for this.
- Are you serious? - Yes.
Thanks for the compliment.
- You should come here more often. - Of course.
You're doing good.
I'm not that good, but it feels good to have someone compliment you.
This is fun.
Now, you have to knead it. Don't put too much pressure.
(He's a tough guy.)
Some of it reached the ceiling.
(I'm a manly man.)
(Starting today, I'll be a cook.)
(My passion for cooking reaches its peak in my 70s.)
(It's even hotter than this frying pan.)
Yours looks really nice.
(At times, he becomes a gentleman who compliments a lady.)
I mean, really.
(His dish makes the lady's dish look even nicer.)
Mine looks the worst.
I'm a really tough guy.
For sure.
I'm not delicate enough.
(He's a really tough guy who doesn't try to be delicate.)
You've got one minute left.
You need to hand in your dishes.
(He's in a rush.)
Two of you haven't handed in your dishes yet.
You've got 25 seconds left.
Oh, wow.
Mine looks unique compared to others.
Mine is really unique...
whereas others' look all similar.
(Students made beautiful circular pan-fried meat.)
(His meat looks blackish.)
Let's make evaluations on our dishes together.
This one came in first. Whose dish is this?
Okay, I see.
Let's evaluate whether this student did well or not...
from the evaluator's point of view.
Let's find out what went wrong together.
In my point of view, this looks perfect.
Let's evaluate the next one. Whose dish is this?
Whose dish is that?
- Whose is it? - Whose is it?
The meat is cooked very well.
Even the garlic is well cooked.
But since this will be a test,
this isn't good enough.
- I agree. - And...
as you all know, the one that tastes the best is...
this one right here.
You all know that jeon is all about oil.
(It looks delicious whoever made it.)
- Let's finish our class here. - Thank you.
(It's the end of today's cooking class.)
Thank you, everyone.
- Thank you, everyone. - Thank you.
Let's taste my dish.
(Yong Geon is tasting it seriously.)
It's delicious. Good!
It really is.
Do you want to try it?
Try it.
(This tastes too good to have it all by myself.)
Honestly, how does it taste?
It tastes really good.
It is, right? I was surprised, too.
Come here and taste my dish.
Try this one.
Honestly, how is it?
It's yummy.
It's really yummy.
Come here.
Try this.
I want to keep on learning how to cook.
I wish I could make and eat delicious food by myself...
and also cook for other people.
I wish I could show my amazing cooking skills someday.
Wait for me, Rainbow Club members.
Look forward to it!
We have to share delicious food. Come here.
Everyone, come taste it.
"I wish you could clean your house."
(I can't stand it any more.)
What on the earth is this?
(It's an endless Mobius strip of dirt.)
(Will Si Eon's house become clean?)
(Do not call me a webtoon artist.)
(I'm a martial artist Kian84 from now on!)
Hey, I think I might have some kind of disease.
(It's Kian84's extreme martial arts training.)
