A project to make the better use of those bothersome leftover foods in your fridge.
Best chefs of Korea are here to invade your fridge!
The premium cooking show, Take Good Care of the Fridge!
We have the most entertaining chefs here.
The MECs.
Let me introduce our chefs to you!
Welcome.
It's been a while since our TGCF's chefs filled up the studio.
But again, we have an empty spot.
That means we have a special chef visiting us today.
Today's special chef is...
I looked into his list of experience and there are so many.
I will put it up on the screen, so let's all look at it together.
Show us.
The first Korean to be selected as 100 chefs of People's Rep. of China.
International Master Chef of Chinese Food,
He has served as the judge of many international cooking competitions.
I can't even catch up with the speed.
Who would be today's special chef?
Show us yourself!
Who is it?
He's today's special chef!
Chef Yeo Kyung-Rae with 41 years of experience. Welcome.
Welcome.
The master has visited us.
Chinese chef whom the Great China has admitted, Chef Yeo Kyung-Rae.
Hello, I'm a Chinese chef, Yeo Kyung-Rae.
I finally got a chance to come here at TGCF.
I will do my best today.
Thank you for being with us today. It's a glory to us.
I heard Chef Lee Yeon-bok recommended him.
Right, because he's at the top of Chinese food world.
The sky cannot have 2 suns.
Right.
Let's get the rank straight forward then.
Chef Lee Yeon-bok has 44 years of experience.
And Chef Yeo Kyung-Rae has 41 years of experience.
How long have you known each other?
About 30-40 years.
So they knew each other from the beginning pf their career.
Chef Yeo and I had walked a different path though.
Chef Yeo had good legacy.
- Legacy? - That's not true.
He had met really good masters.
You mean he took the elite course?
But I had to do all by myself.
Chef Lee did all by himself.
And Chef Yeo had strong legacy.
He got lots of help.
I think having good fortune to have kind friends is also a key to success.
Your name has the word for "luck."
I don't think the name really helps.
I really respect Chef Lee, he's at the top of this world.
I used to be at the top but I lost it to him all of sudden.
Did you come to come to push Chef Lee off the top today?
A match between two Korean masters of Chinese food.
The flour is really...
Oh, that's what it was!
- How much time do we have? - 54 seconds.
Take a bow to Chef Lee Yeon-bok!
The sky cannot have 2 suns.
Who will be the winner of this battle?
It's time to introduce today's guests.
We have invited global stars.
Let me reveal today's fridges' owners!
(Today's guest's fridge)
(is shipped to the studio as it was) (We even had to use a ladder.)
(And another fridge)
(Also shipped to the studio as it is)
Today's guests are revealed now!
They are the owners of today's fridges.
Global entertainer idols, Jackson and Henry!
I mean.. they are good..
What are they doing?
That's enough.
Welcome, Henry.
This way.
Hello. Long time no see.
They are running around.
They are making me dizzy.
- Hello. - Hello.
(What are they....?)
He's the new lifesaver of entertainer idol from JYP.
He has no filters and has freedom in what he says in variety shows.
He has been admitted as JYP and Kim Heung-guk's stepson.
Global beagle idol, Jackson from GOT7!
Jackson!
Hello, I'm a Chinese member Jackson of GOT7, JYP's new boy group.
Jackson!
If he's the lifesaver of JYP,
he is the genius of entertainers from SM.
Whimsy idol,
but in fact, he's a music genius from Berkelee Music School.
Let me introduce a global genius, Henry!
Henry!
They are very fresh. New faces.
They are making us energetic.
I really wanted to come here.
What episode are you on now?
We have past our 100th episode.
I had a doubt...
Maybe you were out of guests to invite.
I said the same thing!
Exact same thing!
No way. What are you talking about?
We thought of the same thing.
When we did the phone interview..
I was really worried if they were...
Jackson!
- That's what I thought. - No, it's not true.
We wanted to invite you two but you guys are very busy.
Up to 100th episode is important but after the 100th is also important.
They both are related to cooking programs.
Jackson is currently working as MC in Chinese version of TGCF.
Henry joined us for the first episode of "National Committee of Chefs"
He made a movie on cooking.
He cooked in the movie.
I was him in that movie.
- Really? - Just the hands.
- Oh, just the hands? - He taught me how to cook.
From Henry's Final Recipe (2013)
With Chef Lee's help, he could become a successful chef in the movie.
We heard that Jackson is working as the MC of Chinese version of TGCF.
He has visited me once.
He gave me lots of advice.
Right, because you said you were MCing.
He was not helpful at all.
(Jackson's brutal honesty)
I told you so many things though!
There was one tip helpful.
To speak loudly.
What do you say when you first start?
I will show you a bit.
Higher pitch!
G, G, G!
The world famous food can be created from your fridge. You may not know.
Why don't we take a look together? Take Good Care of the Fridge!
(He's good)
Wow, it was good.
It's fun!
Why don't we all learn it together?
Is the program going well?
It has gone over 500 million views.
500 million views? That's great!
What do you mean by you show more of your talent than you MC?
- As a MC, I have to make the guests happy, you know? - Right.
I did everything they asked for.
Like tumbling.. Really everything.
For your guests? To make them happy?
Then can you show us what you do over there?
I will show you tumbling then.
Really?
Tumbling!
- Be careful. - Be careful of the microphone.
Countdown for me.
5! 4! 3! 2! 1!
Let's go!
Oh, this kind of tumbling?
I thought he would do something like this.
I know how to do the back tumbling.
Back tumbling is not easy to do.
He's so good.
- You two seem like you are good friends. - We are.
Since when?
He was in the practice team.
I tried to care from him then.
Right, he took care of me. During my hard times.
Between you two, you is better at Korean?
Henry is, but I speak more in non-complete forms.
I don't care whether or not I'm right, but I try to speak in Korean.
Why don't we do a quiz on Korean?
Is it game time?
Yes, it is.
We have a present for the winner.
A fridge?
No, it's not a fridge but we will give the winner the premium Korean beef set.
The winner will get this fresh Korean sirloin.
We are about to do a Korean quiz.
Are you guys confident?
They seem like it. Good.
Why are you guys stretching for a Korean quiz?
It's a speaking test.
It really helps.
Blood circulation, you know?
For blood circulation.
Gosh.
So, the winner can have this premium Korean beef.
You can also have the chefs use this as ingredient for the competition.
Then chefs could have better and more ingredients.
So for today, we will announce the line up of the chefs first.
Then you can cheer for your guest.
First, chefs who will be cooking with Jackson's ingredients are..
Sam Kim.
And Choi Hyun-suk.
And Mihal.
At last, Oh Se-deuk.
It's a tough line up.
So these chefs have to cheer for Jackson.
The rest four..
Lee Yeon-bok, Kim Poong, Jeong Ho-young, and Chef Yeo Kyung-Rae.
You four are assigned to Henry's fridge.
Fist question.
Here we go.
He that will steal a pin will blank.
Jackson! Will be helpful.
He that will steal a pin will be helpful!
Incorrect!
Henry.
Why does he have to steal a pin?
I means... Someone who steals a pin can steal something more pricy later.
Gold?
become gold stealer?
Nuclear! Nuclear stealer!
Nuclear stealer!
Hint, it's alive.
And human can eat it also.
Pig!
Right there! That one!
Beef! Become an ox!
Incorrect!
- A pin stealer shouldn't become an ox! - Become Korean beef!
Steal an ox!
He that will steal a pin will steal an ox!
Correct!
Henry's leading by 1 point.
This won't be easy.
Here is the second question!
Spare something and spoil the child.
- Spoil the child? - Spare something and spoil the child.
Wait a minute.
The rod!
Spare the rod.
Why did you think of that?
Because there is another idiom with the word rod.
So I thought of the rod.
Spare the rod and spoil the child. Correct.
Jackson scored!
Say anything. It could be an answer.
They each scored 1 point and we have a last question.
Cheer me up.
Cheer you up?
Yes. 1, 2 3!
Go Jackson!
Cheer for Henry! 1,2,3!
Let's go, Henry!
Here is the third question.
Follow the crowd to somewhere.
- Jackson was quicker. - Heaven.
Heaven.
Follow the crowd to heaven.
Am I wrong?
Follow the crowd to heaven.
Incorrect.
To marriage?
- Incorrect. - Jackson.
Follow the crowd to....
Follow the crowd to destruction.
(Even Mihal is laughing at them)
Follow the crowd to destruction.
Henry.
Follow the crowd to anywhere.
Gosh.
They only think of the bad things.
I will give you a hint.
It's a good place.
- It's a good place. - Jackson! Follow the crowd...
- Go ahead. - Younger one first.
Cheong-dam.
Follow the crowd to Cheong-dam?
It's very close.
Follow the crowd to Han-gang river.
Gang-Nam!
Follow the crowd to Gang-Nam.
(Jackson got it right)
[The final winner is Jackson]
Give me a high five, my team!
Good place, good place.
Follow the crowd to Cheong-dam. Lol.
Follow the crowd to Han-gang river.
Anyways, the winner is Jackson!
Congratulations.
(So close)
These two are so funny.
Since Jackson won the Korean beef set,
chefs in Jackson's team can use that as the ingredient.
First, we will start with Jackson's fridge.
I heard you live with your members.
- Do you share the fridge with them? - Yes.
What will be in the fridge?
GOT7's fridge.
- It's straight from your dorm, right? - Right.
The fridge in my dorm.
Let me introduce GOT7's fridge!
Jackson, GOT7's fridge!
There are a lot.
It's full.
Let me introduce GOT7's fridge!
Jackson, GOT7's fridge!
There are a lot.
It's full.
The top is the freezer and the bottom is the fridge.
There are lots of stuff.
I see lots of boxes.
Right, there are lots of stuff.
On the first shelf, there are lots of Chinese ingredients.
The bottles are called "Xiaphanchai" in China.
They go along with rice very well.
- Side dishes. - They make you eat rice a lot.
I see.
- In Chinese characters.. - They are Chinese pre-made side dishes.
- Pre-made side dishes? - They are called "Kanranchai."
"Kanranchai."
It's a name of vegetable but you can't find it in Korea.
It says "Hyang-yak-sim" in Chinese characters?
"Hyang-Chae-sim."
It's like Korean pickled vegetables.
Side dishes.
This is..
That's very good.
That one.. Chinese people take that with them to every where.
- When they go abroad.. - Like how Koreans take spicy paste?
You only need this and rice.
It's really good.
To Jackson, it must be the taste of his hometown.
You miss your hometown sometime, right?
Yes, when during my hard times..
Or when our members eat spicy food.
I'm always left out when they eat spicy food.
You can't eat spicy food at all?
I can but it makes me sweat.
Oh, it makes you sweat.
I see cubed radish kimchi though.
- Can you eat these? - No.
Oh, it's too spicy for you?
It doesn't look that spicy.
Just looking at it makes me sweat.
Henry, you can eat spicy food. Can't you?
No, I can't eat spicy food at all.
They are the same.
We shouldn't make anything spicy at all.
Actually, I really like sausage stew.
You know those transport caffs? They have really good sausage stews.
I eat it no matter I sweat.
Oh, you can take that level of spiciness even though it makes you sweat.
I really like skate too.
With steamed pork slices and Kimchi.
With steamed pork slices and Kimchi, it's really tasty.
Unbelievable.
A lot of people don't like it because of the fermented skate.
At first... You know, it tastes like socks...
But when I don't eat it, I crave for it.
He's addicted.
His taste has turned to Korean's.
If he can eat skates, then...
Let's move onto the second shelf.
I see some pre-made sides.
- Sesame leaves? - Myung-yee plants.
That's really good.
I really like it.
With pork belly and garlic.
With sirloin!
- You like it too, Jackson? - I really do.
So you like something not spicy but sweet.
I really like it.
I see.
And there are lots of boxes here.
What are these?
Oh, these are pear juices.
It's for my throat.
Can I have some?
- You want one? - Yes.
Can I give it to him?
Yes, you can.
There are a lot of pear juices.
It's good for your throat.
We need to take good care of our throats.
GOT7 does that with pear juices.
He's a singer these days.
Take 2 packs.
Chef Choi should care for his throat, too.
Aren't these someone else's maybe?
Yes, they are.
- Whose are these? - Jin-young's.
Are we allowed to have these then?
You already had them.
Tell him that we used them as ingredients for the competition.
I will call him.
These are chocolates.
It's my favorite kind since childhood.
Jackson's favorite chocolates.
Since he goes abroad very often...
You like these kinds of stuff.
There are waffles inside.
Do you like it?
I think we have the exact same taste.
We have the same tongues.
They have spicy food and love sweets.
We have some milk here.
Citrus tea.
Cheese.
Those are my favorites.
Back when I was in the practice group,
I ate ramen with 4 slices of cheese.
Isn't it too cheesy?
I love cheesy. I am a cheesy person.
Oh, really?
I am really cheesy.
Before I started being on diet, I liked cheesy stuff like cheese and cream the most.
Something like Carbonara, I love it.
Oh, Carbonara.
Jackson likes cheesy food.
Moving onto the freezer.
Why do you have so many ice-creams?
It's filled with ice-creams.
- All 7 of us love ice-cream. - All of you guys?
We each store one in the freezer.
With our names on them.
Oh, I see the names.
- It says, "Jack". - That's mine.
Oh, from Jackson.
They wrote their names on the lids.
We have some chicken breasts.
Korean sirloins from the quiz.
I realized how precious that is.
His fridge has nothing useful.
There's none for main and side ingredients. None.
There's nothing for the sides either.
There's no vegetables.
This Korean beef is very assuring.
Let's look at the cabinet ingredients.
These are.. green teas.
These are..
I really like organic green tea.
Why do you like it?
I used to have many pimples.
When Mr. Park Jin-young looked at my skin,
he recommended me to drink some green tea.
I did and I got so much better.
It worked for you?
In the back, we have some cereals.
Ramen, the noodles...
And some nuts, also.
We don't have that much of ingredients to use.
So we have to count on the beef set.
That was it for Jackson's fridge.
What would Jackson have asked us for?
Let me announce to you!
Jackson has asked for..
"Cheesy food that touches my soul."
"Arduously leading course meal."
Course meal?
That's not possible.
Why did you ask for cheesy food that touches your soul?
I've been on diet since a year ago.
I had to keep my weight low.
Just for today, I want to eat something very cheesy.
He puts in 4 slices of cheese in his ramen.
Something that penetrates my deep inside..
Something cheesy that touches my soul.
Something that touches the real Jackson.
Don't you think it's too harsh for the chefs to ask for a course meal?
Have you ever made a course meal with...
An appetizer, side dish, main dish, and a dessert?
Don't you think you are asking for too much
with your empty fridge?
I'll give you more time. 10 seconds.
15 minutes and 10 seconds?
Gosh.
I am lucky not to be assigned to him.
We've already announced the 4 chefs who are assigned to his fridge.
Sam Kim, Choi Hyun-suk, Mihal, and Oh Se-deuk.
Please choose in order.
First, Chef Sam Kim. Where do you wanna go?
"Cheesy food that touches my soul."
Of course, of course.
Chef Choi.
- Where do you wanna go? - He will go for the course meal.
Mr. Alligator!
An alligator?
He looks like an alligator.
He won't bite.
He's right.
Thank you.
I will take the hard path. I will show you the chef's path.
"Arduously leading course meal."
Chef Choi chose "Arduously leading course meal."
Next up is Mihal.
See you later, alligator.
Alligator.
It's going to be a match between a Dracula and an alligator.
Automatically, Chef Oh will go for the cheesy food.
Are you okay with it?
Well, I am a French chef.
I think I will handle something cheesy.
Good. We will begin with the "Cheesy food that touches my soul."
It's a match between Chef Oh and Chef Sam Kim.
They both studied abroad.
French and Italian, but they both studied in America.
- Which city did you study in? - In L.A.
- What about you? - In New York.
They are real rivals.
New York verses L.A.
What's your definition of cheesy? Please tell us.
Something thick..I mean.. dense.
Dance? Dancing?
No, something thick and dense.
I want the world's most dense cheesy-ness.
The world's most dense cheesy-ness...
- Are you a cheesy person? - Yes, I am.
- Really? - His eyes are cheesy.
His eyes are cheesy.
Cheesy eyes.
So far, Chef Oh Se-deuk is leading by 2:1.
Among 3 best Korean entertainer companies, Chef Oh has earned stars from..
He won when BOA came as the guest.
That's a star from SM.
And when Tae-yang came, he earned another one.
That's one from YG.
He only has one to get from JYP.
Isn't today a good chance for you?
If I lose today, Mr. Jo Yong-pil will visit us one day.
(Why did he suddenly mention Jo Yong-pil?)
- His initial is JYP. - Oh my gosh.
Oh, his sense of humor..
That could be a substitute.
Did he just make a joke?
He did.
I will aim for a star from JYP.
(Choosing the ingredients)
You're going to use cheddar cheese, right?
Yes, I am going to.
We have to share.
Are you going to use these?
- Chef Oh is taking the beef. - We will share.
What would you have done without it?
[Chef Oh] Beef sirloin, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and milk.
[Chef Sam] Chicken breast, beef sirloin, almonds,
[cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and milk.]
The food I am making today is, "Feel the Soul."
"Feel the Soul."
Are you using beef?
I will add white cream sauce to beef and add cheese.
To make it more cheesy,
I am going to top it with "rice with egg and butter soy sauce."
On top of that, I will put beef with cheese and sauce.
I love it.
If time allows, I am thinking about making fresh red wine sauce as well.
It will be very cheesy for people with normal taste
It will make them fire up.
It's going to be that cheesy?
It will be very oily.
The food I prepared today is called "Sam and Cheese steak."
"Sam and Cheese steak?"
Last time, it was "Sam and Cheese Gratin."
With cheese and milk, I am going to make a creamy sauce.
And I am going to use beef for that.
Sam and Cheese...
"Sam and Cheese steak."
It's my food. Why is he using his name?
Sam and Cheese...
I'll change the name to "Jackson and Cheese Steak."
(Good)
He reflected the opinion right away.
The name has been changed. "Jackson and Cheese Steak."
Let us begin the "Cheesy food that touches my soul" match.
The pronoun of soul foods from L.A., Chef Sam verses...
Multi-player in many different genres from East coast, Chef Oh Se-deuk.
Who will make more cheesy food that touches Jackson's soul?
The cheesy food competition starts now!
15 minutes!
It started?
Times ticking.
You have to make it cheesy.
He spilt some.
It slipped because it's too oily.
I know.
New York style knife skills!
Knife skill competition between L.A. and N.Y.
East verses West.
There's no sound.
They have to make sound.
Wow.
You're slow.
He's slow?
No.
He has to go.. dak! dak! dak! dak!
That's what he did.
No, he has to do more like deuk, deuk, deuk!
Because I am (Oh Se) Deuk.
(Boil down red wine with the mixture.)
- Are those chicken breast? - Yes, they are.
Chicken breasts.
What's going on? He slipped too.
It's too oily. Too cheesy.
It's hard to grab those.
(Stir-fry prepared chicken breast cubes and beef. Add salt and pepper.)
To add cheesy-ness, Sam added butter.
He has to put a lot. He only put a little.
I want you to use them all.
To make it cheesy, that much of butter won't do anything.
Wow, butter.
Put all of them in!
Put the whole thing in!
He only used half of it.
You should put in the whole thing.
I think he put in too much.
Put the whole thing in!
I want the world's most cheesy-ness.
The butter is hard, so I want to melt them as I cook.
Oh, that's why.
- He spilt it again! - It's oily! Cheesy!
It's cheesy already.
They are very slippery.
The oil is like...gosh.
Sam has to use butter to stir-fry onions but he's using olive oil.
Cheese? Cheese!
He's adding cheese to the butter?
Jackson seems to like it.
3 slices of cheese.
How many are you putting in?
He's putting in too much.
If you put in macaronis, then that's mac n cheese, right?
It's the sauce for mac n cheese?
I already felt the cheesy-ness.
It's going to be too cheesy.
I am maintaining the balance.
I'm not adding without thinking.
Oh, really?
(Pound the beef with a mean tenderizer and sliced up)
(Cut beef into small pieces and add salt. Then pour flour.)
(To roux, add beef with flour, onion, and milk to make cream sauce.)
He got much faster!
Be careful of your fingers.
N.Y. is faster at cutting.
(Stir-fry sliced white part of large green onions with oil and instant rice.)
(Add the cream sauce to the beef and instant rice. Add soy sauce.)
Are you making "rice with butter and soy sauce," Chef Oh?
Yes!
(Add egg to the rice with green onion and soy sauce.)
They are very focused.
They each are using 3 frying pans.
Are they usually this serious?
Why are you using almonds?
To add more texture
It will make you feel more cheesy-ness.
It makes sense.
(Add lemon juice to the almond cream sauce.)
4 minutes and 50 seconds left!
I will send MC Anh to the kitchen.
(Boil down the chicken breasts and beef with cheddar cheese sauce.)
It's cheesy.
It's already cheesy.
Just looking at it is cheesy?
I've waited for this moment for a year.
(Rice with butter, soy sauce, and egg is finished)
Chef Oh has put in lots of cheese.
I see the chicken breast.
He's topping the "rice with butter and soy sauce" with beef.
How cheesy would it be?
Why don't you taste the one in the pan?
The one in the pan.
Oh, it must be hot.
How is it? Cheesy?
How cheesy is it?
I will make you slip on the road.
It has deep taste but you can feel the cheesy-ness.
Cheesy, cheesy.
(Expressing its oiliness with his body)
I'm excited.
Let me taste it.
Sam Kim's food.
How is it? Whose food is more cheesy?
Sam's is more cheesy. The West Side is.
The West Coast is more cheesy.
2 minutes and 30 seconds left.
(Put stir-fried onion with cheddar cheese.)
( Top with chicken breast and beef. Then add almond cream sauce.)
(Cut beef sirloin into smaller piece. Stir-fry them with salt and pepper.)
(Boil them down with red wine sauce and butter with mustard.)
(Filter out cream cheese sauce with a sieve. )
(Add mil and bring it to boil again.)
(Pour the cream cheese sauce over the beef.)
What is this?
It's the red wine sauce.
I am a chef, you know. It might be too cheesy to finish..
He's making a steak with the beef.
Jackson and Cheese Steak.
Wow.
I'm ready!
Wow.
I'm ready for it!
It's going to be very cheesy.
It's far beyond Sam's limits.
Alright, Chef Oh Sae-deuk!
Chef Oh is done! He got done first.
- Very fast. - The guest will try Chef Oh's dish first.
Okay, he's putting the steak on the plate. Not much time left.
- You need to hurry. - The cream cheese.
Eight seconds! Seven, six, five, four, three...
- Alright, he's done. - Looks so cheesy.
(Cheesy dish that will touch his soul)
(Egg butter soy sauce rice with meat served with cream cheese and red wine sauce)
(Chef Oh Sae-deuk's 'Feel the Soul')
Alright, A dish that's oily and cheesy.
Try the sauce and the meat together.
You need to squeeze the oil out of that meat which has good marbling.
Alright.
- Looks very cheesy. - Since, Chef Oh won the idiom quiz, he got to use the beef.
Look at the butter underneath it. The big one.
He's trying it now.
- Alright. - Will it touch his soul?
How is it? How is it?
I wonder if he'll be satisfied with it.
- How is it? - Tell us.
Talk.
- This is exactly what I wanted. - What you wanted!
You like how oily and cheesy it is?
I see. It's eastern style oiliness.
He's been holding it back for one year.
Do you like it?
- I'm so.. - It's hot?
- I'm so happy - Oh, happy.
This is the first time in the past one year.
It's like bungee jumping, but without the rope.
Then, that's just falling.
I'm falling and underneath... it's as if there's this ocean of cheese.
Sponge ocean. I see.
- This is awesome. - It's like bungee jumping.
He's really enjoying the dish.
(Beef steak served with cheddar cheese)
(Chef Sam Kim's 'Jackson and Cheese Steak')
- Okay, I'm ready. - Alright.
- How should I eat it? - Cut the meat, eat it with the onions
and the cheese sauce.
What's this under the steak?
That's cream cheese.
- Oh, the one you mixed with almonds? - Yes.
So, try it with the sauce, too. Altogether.
Come on, come on! Okay, he's trying it!
Yay!
Cheesy!
- Like skydiving. - Let's go!
He's eating it so well.
- It's not too cheesy? - His face is a bit frowny...
Oh, he was just wiping his mouth.
Is it cheesy?
He doesn't look too happy...oh, wait.
Did it touch your soul?
- This is... - Yes?
It's too much.
(Oh, no)
It's too much it got stuck in my throat.
- It's stuck. - It got stuck.
- It's extreme. - I see, extreme. Extremely cheesy.
It's superbly cheesy.
He's eating it so well. It's the first time in a year.
(Thumb up)
Do you live alone?
- He's married and has kids. - Oh, I'm sorry.
- Why? - Can I come over to your place?
Come, come.
He wanted to come over to Chef Sam's place if he lives alone.
- It's so delicious. - Is it?
Yes, this is so cheesy. It's so my style. I'll really come over.
(Please do come)
So they're cheesy in different ways but you like both?
- Yes, this one is very strong. - Strong.
But this one, whenever I take a bite, it like explodes in my mouth.
I see. So there are some differences. But he likes both of them.
Okay, everyone will try now.
First, we'll try Chef Oh's 'Feel The Soul'.
'Feel the Soul'.
- Start with the bomb. - It's the bungee jumping one.
Start with bungee jumping.
Right?
Wow.
I can take this much.
- Yes, I can eat this one. - It's not too cheesy, right?
I'm okay with this much.
- I can take it. - It's really good.
If I eat it with some kimchi, I can finish this.
Who needs some kimchi?
- We do. - You need some, right?
Okay, here's some kimchi.
- It's good? - With kimchi, it's excellent.
With some kimchi, this is...
I think it'll still be good if it was a bit more oily and cheesy.
Okay.
- This is just normal for me. - This is just normal for you...
- I feel like I'm back at my hometown. - Where is your hometown?
- It's Daejeon. - Do people in Daejon like oily and cheesy food?
No...but what I really like about this dish is that it has butter oil,
and oil from cheese and beef.
So it's the mixture of three types of oil. And it creates this climax.
- Like a bomb. - Right, like a bomb.
Most people would think that it's too cheesy, but it's also very savory.
So it really stimulates your appetite.
This time, we'll try Chef Sam's 'Jackson and Cheese Steak').
Eat it altogether, right?
Wow.
Wow, this one's strong. It's very strong.
It is very oily and cheesy.
- You need some kimchi? - Wow.
Like what Jackson said. It's very strong.
- It gets stuck, right? - I think it is. I know what you're talking about.
I understand that Chef Sam was trying to customize this dish for our guest today.
This one is made especially cheesy and oily for Jackson.
I'm amazed to see that there's a person in this world
who likes this kind of extremely cheesy food.
It's a bit much, right? For just ordinary people, this will be a bit too cheesy.
When you eat meat, it usually gets stuck in your teeth.
But this one is so oily, it doesn't get stuck.
- It just glides through? - Because it's so oily
Jackson made this request because he wanted to
experience some extreme oiliness and cheesiness.
I wonder which one impressed him more.
Which one is more cheesy?
Number 1 is Chef Oh's dish. Number 2 is Chef Sam's dish.
- Did you press it? - I pressed it.
I can't decide. It's so hard...
I wonder whose dish had more impact.
Will Chef Sam win against Chef Oh and make an even score?
Or will Chef Oh get the star badges from all the top three agencies?
Please show us the result! Who won?
- (Chef Sam Kim - Winner) - Chef Sam!
('Jackson and Cheese Steak' - Winner)
- Really? - Chef Sam Kim won.
- Even score now. - Yes, it's 2:2 now.
They have the same score.
In my opinion, Chef Oh's dish is like a bomb. It explodes.
- Yes. - It is very impactful.
The mixture of egg, rice, beef and cream cheese was excellent.
But I think I can find this kind of dish at a nice restaurant somewhere in town.
But Chef Sam's dish really stood out.
- First of all, it really got stuck in my throat - Alright.
Because it's so good, right?
- And then it like strikes my heart. - It struck you!
Felt it deep in my soul.
- I see. - I feel like I've been hit.
- On your heart? - Like on my face.
Alright, it struck him.
Chef Sam's 26th victory. Congratulations.
What are you doing with a remote control?
I'm sorry.
He's so adorable.

It's a very difficult topic. It's actually almost impossible.
- It's a full course meal. - He's giving them 10 more seconds to finish it.

Yes, more the better.

Alright, if we look at the current score between them, it's 4:1.
So Chef Mihal is winning. He's ahead by far.

What are you going to make today, Chef Mihal?
I'm going to make 'Misik Full Course'.

It won't be like a restaurant food style. It'll be more like homemade style.
- We're from different countries but I kinda know how you feel. - Right, right.
He's a foreigner, too. So he understands you.
Then how many dishes are you going to make?
- If I can, three dishes. - I see.
The highlight is the soup.
- Oh, the soup. - Awesome.
Wouldn't it take too long?
And I'm going to use chicken breast, which is good for your health.
When Mihal uses chicken, he never loses. The chance of him winning is very high.
Today, I'm going to make 'Oh My Goodness Course'.

Very nice tittle.
I'll make carpaccio as an appetizer.

We have the time limit up there. 15 minutes and 10 seconds.
First time in our show that we allowed this.
Chef Mihal, who uses 15 minutes as if he has a whole hour.
It's him against Chef Choi Hyun-seok, who always manages to make high quality
dishes in just minutes.
Who will be able to captivate Jackson's appetite?

- Yes, salad. - Salad appetizer.
(Looks very calm and peaceful)
What? Who is whistling? Chef Mihal?
Wow, I guess he doesn't feel pressured at all.
- You can't whistle. - Chef Choi is trying to whistle, too.
- But no sound is coming out. - Oh, he can't whistle.
You know, alligators can't whistle.
Right, right.
See you later, Alligator.
Chef Choi is not saying anything back to Mihal's insult.
You know, I'm going to make 4 dishes today but...
Chef Mihal really doesn't have '4 things' (In Korean, it means manners).
- Oh... - We won't know the result until it actually ends.
Is that chocolate, Chef Choi?
- Oh, that's my favorite chocolate. - Yes, it's that one.

Because there's not a lot of time, he's using them at once.
- Looks so busy. - Yes, very busy.
Chef Mihal was always at east when he was cooking.
- I know. - Today, he looks very busy.
- I feel so bad now... - Why?
For asking them to make a full course meal. They look so busy right now.
Yes, they are.
(6. Whip egg white to make meringue.)
He mixed almonds with meringue.
Meringue and almonds. What are you making right now, Chef Mihal?
- I think he's making a meringue cookie. - Oh, cookie.
You normally bake it in oven.
- He looks so busy. - It's a dessert, right.
Oh, its super fast! It's super fast!

Look at Chef Mihal and his skills.

When Chef Mihal uses chicken as an ingredient, he usually wins with 80% chance.

Oh, he's crushing the ramen. Chef Mihal is using the ramen noodles.
He added lemon juice to the egg.
(13. Mix egg and lemon juice. Sift it and then boil it.)

Chef Mihal is done with one dish, the salad.

Both course meals have been completed.
Let's give it up for the two chefs who worked so hard.
(Applause)
- Alright. - (Thank you!)
(Beef carpaccio, carrot soup,
fried chicken breast and chocolate dessert)
(Chef Choi Hyun-seok's 'Oh My Goodness' Course)
Before I try it, what's the story behind this dish?
Oh, does it have a story?
- Oh, story... - (Squeezing his brain)
You know, it's raw right now. It symbolizes loneliness.
It has nothing. It's like Jackson, who came here from China with nothing.
(Touched)
He's so good at improvising.
He's the king of ad lib.
It's raw, right?
Yes, Korean style raw beef.
- Try it with the onions. - With onions.
He's a bit frowny. It's not that great?
Too tough?
It tastes very...lonely.
Lonely...
I knew it. Jackson really read my intention.
I did that on purpose. It's a bit sweet and sour to stimulate your appetite.
But I wanted it to taste lonely because next...
Jackson's success story will come out.
So first, it's loneliness.
- Then the soup. - Oh, the soup.
What's its story?
It symbolizes the sun. The bright sunshine.
Finally, Jackson has succeeded. And he's shining.
He got his success so fast?
I became successful as soon as I arrived?
Isn't it too fast?
Okay, he's going to try it. It's supposed to taste like a success.
I wonder it will taste like a success.
Is it successful?
- Wow. - Success?
It's very cheesy.
- (Huh?) - (Cheesy = I like it)
- It was successful. - It's a success. It has a good density.
It's very cheesy. I think it got stuck in my throat again.
He's very satisfied.
Next up is the main dish.
And now successful Jackson is lying down, with a cheese blanket. He's resting.
- Take a break. - It's giving him warmth.
It's very touching.
It's chicken breast inside, right?
- The fried one. - Yes.
It's a cheesy blanket.
This is the main dish.
- Oh? - His facial expression doesn't look too good...
He's laughing. Why?
- Oh, he's reaching for the carrot soup again. - Back to the success.
(Worried)
It's really just cheese and chicken breast.
- It's very warmy. - Warmy.
He said the cheese is like a blanket.
Last part, the dessert.
The dessert is very sweet. It symbolizes peace.
Overall, it means that everyone will get the happy ending.
Happy ending.
Okay, try the dessert now.
- With the cereal. - This looks awesome.
- The ice cream. - Wow!
(Anticipation)
I'll try it together.
With the carrot soup that represents success.
Success and sweetness.
- Oh, this is really good. - Is it?
So for the course meal, there has to be up and downs.
If every dish is too strong, it'll be boring.
So first, the appetizer just stimulates your appetite with the light taste.
And then the impactful soup.
Then the savory main dish. After that, another impactful dish, the dessert.
Alright.
- So this is like my life. - Right.
It represents your life story.
You said you don't like spicy food.
Alright. He finished all four dishes Chef Choi made.
(Kimchi salad, chicken breast soup, meringue sandwich)
(Chef Mihal's 'Misik Full Course')
(Serving wine...)
- Oh, wine. - He's going to give me some wine, too?
This won't affect the result but Chef Mihal wanted to serve wine with his dish.
I brought it here.
Mine would have tasted real good if I served champagne with it. What's this?
- (Tension) - Don't serve the wine. You can't serve the wine.
No, no, no.
If Jackson can enjoy the dish more that way, its' fine.
With a glass of wine.
The salad will be very refreshing.
Okay, he's trying the salad.
I minced the ingredients so...
- What's the story? - He is a bit frowning.
This is...
I didn't expect it to taste like this.
It's something you didn't expect?
It tastes like sha ban chai from China. The side dish.
- Oh, I see. - It's the perfect appetizer.
- Next, is the main dish. - The main dish.
Alright.
Wow.
That sounded too formal. Did you just say that out of formality?
I thought it will have a strong lingering taste but it's not.
It's like Ji tang. The chicken soup from China.
The chicken soup in China.
The chicken soup, I see.
How can a Bulgarian chef be so good at making Chinese style cuisine?
There are a lot of Chinese people in Bulgaria.
China and Bulgaria are brothers.
(Kings of ad lib)
We're all brothers.
- It tasted like food my mom used to make for me. - Did it really?
- The chicken soup. - I see.
The last part. Chef Mihal spent a lot of time making this dessert.
- Wow, it's like a hamburger. - An ice cream hamburger.
It looks so good.
(Slice it in good portions)
- Wow. - He'll like it.
I think this is the main dish.
My mouth is watering.
(Dripping chocolate)
How much calorie is that? - This is very greasy.
- It is? - (His way of saying compliment)
Does that mean you really like it?
It got stuck right from here.
Not here. As soon as I took a bite.
- It's very creamy and greasy tasting. - I see.
What's the story behind this course meal?
They're just the homemade style cuisine.
First and second, you were thinking about his health
but on the last part, you ruined it.
- I's quite impactful, though. - Thank you.
Okay, everyone will try now.
- First, we'll try Chef Choi's dish. - Alright.
'Oh My Goodness' Course meal.
Please taste the story of my life.
Alright.
- Your loneliness. - Yes. Can you feel it?
- Wow. - It's very good.
- And you should try the soup. - Yes, the soup.
The soup looked really good.
Is it a success?
Oh, this soup is amazing. I think it was successful.
Wow, it really tastes like it's a success.
I think I can make this at home. It's so good for your health.
I feel like I can keep eating it.
Poong always says that he can make everything.
- He always says he can make it at home. - I think I really can.
The recipe is very simple. You stir-fry onions with butter.
And then you add cheese, milk then flour. And then you put it in a blender.
One thing I might suggest, what if he combined the soup and the chicken breast
and just made 3 dishes course meal, wouldn't it have been better?
No, no.
That's not what I was after. I'm not after the star badge.
- Jackson needs some rest. - But it'd have been more complete!
- Jackson needs some rest. - I'll make that in three weeks.
No wonder he is the star chef of this program. I'm simply amazed by the fact that
he made 4 dishes in just 15 minutes.
You're awesome. Really.
- Thumbs up. - Thumbs up.
Xie xie.
This time, we'll try Chef Mihal's dish.
- The salad. - It really tastes like Chinese side dish.
- Right? - It'd go well with rice.
Chinese side dish.
- And then the soup. - Yes, the chicken soup.
Chinese style.
- We should try the dessert. - Yes, we should.
- It's really good. - He spent a lot of time on this one.
- It just takes one bite. - Really?
It got stuck, right?
It's a bit too creamy and sweet.
It's strong, right?
This soup actually kinda tastes like...Russian cuisine.
- And Chinese food, too. So it's very interesting. - Very exotic.
I think this represents my diet story.
First, you only eat salad. I feel like I'm going to be healthy.
And then you crave soup. But for your health, you use healthy ingredients.
So you don't make it too sweet.
It's really good.
But eventually, I give up.
I just eat this sweet thing, thinking 'I don't care'.
So it's a story about diet failure.
Yes, it feels like that.
Now, Jackson must choose.
Number 1 is Chef Mihal's dish. Number 2 is Chef Choi's dish.
Did you make up your mind? Okay, he chose.
- I'm sorry! - I'm sorry...
Who is he saying that to?
I wonder who managed to 'hard carry' the course meal.
Will Chef Choi able to redeem his honor?
Or we'll Chef Mihal defeat Chef Choi again?
Please show us the result! Who is the winner?
(Chef Choi Hyun-seok - Winner)
('Oh My Goodness Course Meal' - Winner)
- (Twirl) - Chef Choi won against Chef Mihal.
(Chef Choi redeemed his reputation)
Chef Choi made a turning point.
- Jackson chose... - Chef Choi's dish.
His course meal really was about my life.
First, I came here with nothing. And then I became successful.
And then I kinda went down.
But I got my happy ending. It's like a rollercoaster.
Alright, we just thought he made it all up.
- I thought it was just an improvisation. - Yes.
- But it made sense. - No, no.
I thought of this story the moment I saw you.
Okay...
Here is your star badge.
- Chef Choi Hyun-seok's 25th victory! - Congratulations!
Alright, 25th victory.

Ding hao (?)
(A legendary dish for Henry)
How is it?
It just reminds me of my mom.
I really didn't want to say this but it's complicated.
I really don't think I can choose.
I really don't want to.
You're not going to vote?
What are we going to do?
- Alright. - Say Ahhh.
(Choking)
Can you eat it all?
