- Let me introduce today's guests Yoon Doo-joon and Lee Si-eon.
Doo-joon makes women's hearts flutter.
- I've been living alone for about 5 years.
- It's been around 12 years.
- Doo-joon is well known for playing soccer
at a professional level.
- I love soccer.
- Who is your favorite soccer player?
- Choi Yong-soo.
- You don't know much about soccer then.
- He is also famous as a food lover.
- Clean.
- It's very embarrassing.
- It's clean.
- It's perfectly neat.
- Do you really think it's clean?
- Yes, I think it's very well organized.
- I'd like to have a delicious and hearty meal.
- It's white.
- It's beautiful.
I really love that.
He's using a torch.
- Nice. That's it.
- Yoo Hyun-soo.
He's eating it roughly.
- You were like a zombie.
- He's being rough on it.
Since you two are here today...
We wonder if you have any acquaintance.
- No, I've never met him.
- Is this the first time then?
- I saw him at a rice noodle restaurant around the Konkuk Univ. 2~3 years ago.
I was eating rice noodles alone, and
He and his band members came in.
- I remember I went there once.
- I made my debut at that time, but I was looking at them like this.
- Why didn't you say hello to him?
- I was afraid he might recognize me.
I didn't want him to recognize me.
- I was also eating alone, so
- I wasn't like an actor at all at that moment.
- I was working part-time around there.
- Really?
Did you continue working part time after your debut?
- Yes, I did a lot.
Distributing flyers
- He must've been through a lot.
- Even after his debut
- Yes.
- Then, you've been eating alone for a long time, right?
- Yes, I eat alone almost every day.
- There are some people who feel embarrassed about
.eating alone because of the eyes from people around them.
- There are certain rules to follow when eating alone.
You must pretend to be busy.
- Pretending to be busy?
- You should take your cell phone out as soon as you sit down.
- How?
- Exactly.
He's right.
- He really knows how to do it.
Let's assume you enter a restaurant.
- "Excuse me, please hurry".
I pretend to be busy
watching my smart phone like this.
- Exactly.
He's absolutely right.
- He's right.
- It's so embarrassing.
- I agree.
- It's strange but
It feels like someone keeps looking at me.
Nobody's looking at me, but I still feel embarrassed.
- There are always some people
who stare into empty space like this while eating alone.
It makes me feel sad.
It makes me want to sit there and have a meal with them.
- Especially hangover soup
They keep chewing diced radish kimchi
while staring at the wall in front of them.
- Exactly.
- And then, they take another bite.
- You must carry a cell phone with you.
Without it, you have nothing to do.
- In the old days, people were carrying newspapers.
- You're right.
- They unfold and read newspapers
- while eating.
Instead, it's a smart phone now.
- I usually don't ask for any additional side dishes.
Since I don't want any attention
The moment I say "Excuse me"
- Exactly.
- So I just eat without asking for anything.
- He's absolutely right.
It's hard to ask for more side dishes.
- The moment I say "Excuse me", people look at me.
- He's right.
- I too used to live alone for a long time, so I know what it feels like.
Home Alone, right?
You showed us your house on the show.
But it makes me
want to help you out and feel bad a little.
- You're saying it's dirty, right?
But I never thought that
my house was dirty, to be honest.
I thought it was clean.
I am a person who likes to clean and organize, but
Somehow, I've become an icon of complete mess.
- Don't people around you say the same thing after watching the show?
"Clean up your room, Si-eon"
- My fellow actors and friends are
telling me why I live like that.
I'm getting a lot of help from people around me.
Even the restaurant ladies pity me.
They really do.
- After watching the show?
- They give me more foods for free, and I love that.
- It must be a great saving for you.
- Yes, it is.
We don't have to worry about Si-eon anymore.
He just won the lottery for apartment contract.
- Really?
- I did it for fun, but got one in Seoul.
- It's hard to win.
- I've never seen anyone who won it.
- There are some people who think that
they just give away the apartment.
- You're right.
- But it's just the beginning. I have to pay for that.
They're just offering a contract.
The construction just started.
- Is that so?
- I visit the construction site 2-3 times a week to say hello to the leader.
- He's a site manager.
- We had a conversation.
- Of course.
You must've kindly asked him to build a good house.
- He also asked a few things.
- You must be very happy.
- Yes, I am.
I don't have a baby, but It feels like I'm waiting for the baby to be born.
I feel that way.
- Congratulations.
It says that your hobby is buying used items. Is it true?
- Yes, I always check the online market for used items after work.
- Which items?
- Clothes and
random things that I want to buy on impulse.
Last time I bought an ocarina and a harmonica.
It was about 3 or 4 years after I made my debut.
My favorite bag was listed at $50.
So I texted the seller right away.
I asked for a $10 discount, pretending to be a student.
But, he said he was poor either.
I kindly asked him again.
Finally, he decided to sell it.
He told me that he would sell it for $40 including delivery fee.
- What does that mean?
- It's the total price that includes delivery fee.
- There was a letter in the package.
It says "Are you Lee Si-eon?"
- My goodness.
- But I kept saying that I was a student.
- How did he figure that out?
- My face was in the profile photo of the talk messenger.
It was very embarrassing.
My face turned red.
- After reading the letter
- My ears, too
I was supposed to be a 22-year-old student, but
He probably said to his friends, "Si-eon lied to me".
- "He asked for a $10 discount, pretending to be a student".
- It's so embarrassing.
- Do you still buy used items?
- Yes, I do.
Still a lot.
I bought one recently.
Last week.
- It usually gets awkward when trading in person.
- He's right. Especially when buying clothes.
- Right, you have to try it on.
- I have to find somewhere to change in such places like subway station.
- He's right.
It must fit.
- I ask, "Does it look good on me?".
The seller gives a hand, saying "Wow!".
- Of course, he should.
- He also says, "It's amazing".
- "No wonder you're a celebrity".
And I say, "Really?".
- He may continue, "It's perfect for you".
- Then I do an account transfer right there with my smart phone.
We both check the transaction then.
After checking, he asks "Are you wearing them when going home?".
I answer, "Yes".
- Doo-joon, have you ever sold any used item?
It looks like you have a lot of items.
- No, I haven't.
- Really?
Is it true that you have six computers?
- I used to.
- Not any more then?
- Now, I have only two.
- Wow, still two computers.
- I dreamed of
playing PC games with my friends at home.
Like a PC cafe.
- In one room?
Wow, you wanted to play games with your friends in one room, right?
- I dreamed about that in my childhood.
I really did.
- I envy him.
For my computer, it takes more than 10 minutes to just boot.
- Your computer is
- I'm so jealous.
I bought it from my friend.
For $200.
- He sold it to me cheap, but
- The mouse won't move until 10 minutes after turning on the power.
It won't move.
It also makes a noise like this. I thought it was a car.
I mean the sound of starting a car.
- Isn't it the sound of a tractor?
I was worried it might blow up.
- You were?
- I was really scared.
- I sold it to my friend cheaper.
- Cheaper?
- I sold it for $150.
- How about $170 then?
- Sorry, it's already sold.
- $170
- No more than $170
- He started price negotiations right away.
- He can afford $170, but
- can't afford more than $170.
- No more than $170, I see.
In the preliminary interview, Si-eon criticized and
sharply made one point that
the show is changing.
- He's right.
- He's saying there are too many dishes that are not practical.
- Right.
Sometimes, I want to cook and try them at home, but
I just can't
- He's right.
- I don't have such fancy groceries at home.
I probably don't. I really mean it.
I don't know much, but I think it should be possible to make some dishes with the
groceries in my refrigerator. That would fit the intent of this show, I think.
- Who do you think is the chef who can make the right dishes
with groceries in your refrigerator?
- I'm sure you all can do it, but
To be honest, I'd like to try Lee Yeon-bok's dishes first.
Last time I called to book a table in his restaurant, but
they said there would be no seat available for a few months to come.
- Did you also say this in the preliminary interview?
You said you wanted to book in advance, right?
- Yes, can I make a reservation for Christmas Day?
- He just did it in advance.
- It would be difficult if not now.
Since...
- Still 10 months left.
- I've never tried any Chinese foods except
black-bean noodles and sweet and sour Pork. I want to experience something new.
- By the way, his refrigerator is really small.
I think a big person like Seo Jang-hoon
could use it as a backpack.
- Is it really that small?
- Yes, it is.
- I never thought it's that small.
- Really?
Let's find out what's inside Si-eon's refrigerator.
- I can't wait to see it.
- How long have you been living alone since moving from Busan to Seoul?
- 12 years.
- Such a long time.
- Then your cooking skills must've been improved a lot.
- It's difficult to call it cooking skills.
I often eat spaghetti at home.
Since it's so easy.
All I have to do is to just cook the noodles and pour the sauce.
I just need a taste.
- But you try different things at home, right?
- Yes, I do sometimes.
- This really is the fridge he brought.
You didn't buy this, did you?
- No, I didn't.
It was just there when I moved in.
That's why I've been using it.
- It's a part of furnishings, right?
- I think you must leave this when moving out unless you want to violate any laws.
Since this was there already.
- I heard that the person who had lived before left it.
- Really?
- In that case, please do whatever you want.
- It was a great fortune.
- Your sticker is put on the front of the refrigerator.
- It's the sticker that my fans made. There is no place to put it, so
- You reused it as tape, right?
- I couldn't help it.
- I have no sticky tape.
- This one is also being used as tape.
- I decided to sacrifice my face without buying a tape.
- Look at this.
- I think he had to put this poster on.
- Because of this poster, many of other things have been sacrificed.
- That's my first movie poster.
- This means something then.
Kim Jung-tae, Kim Sung-oh, Jung Yoo-mi, and Lee Si-eon.
The actors that the movie industry wants to cast first are all here.
- It's been not that great after that.
- I'm sure there will be something good in the future.
- Of course.
- Let's open his refrigerator.
- It's full.
- As soon as I open the door, I can smell the side dishes.
- Really?
- I think it would have been nice if there was a deodorizer inside.
You don't usually sense these things, do you?
Please take a picture of this.
What we've been talking about is this type of thing.
- Spill.
- There was no such spill in Doo-joon's refrigerator.
- That represents humanity.
- Look at the niche here.
What's this?
There is chili powder.
Do you grow chili pepper in the refrigerator?
There are a lot of pepper seeds.
- Why would you do that?
- This is a garden.
- I think I should water it.
- I've never cleaned it.
It's been about 4 to 5 years.
- Are you serious?
- Yes.
- My goodness.
- I thought you guys would clean it when I brought it here.
- Let's take a close look first.
I see things that I don't want to take out.
There are so many things that
- have to be thrown away.
- Let's see what this is.
Is this a sauce?
- I have a close hometown friend who works in Noryangjin.
A few days ago, I said I wanted to eat Spicy Blue Crab Stew so much.
Thankfully, he sent them to me.
But what I cooked was not good.
- But you still have the sauce for just in case it might be needed.
- I thought I could use it for something else.
- I see.
These...
These are stir-fried anchovies.
- The wife of a lighting director gave them to me.
- The wife of a lighting director, I see.
- He is a lighting director for dramas.
- His name is Moon Kwon-eui.
- The wife of lighting director Moon, I see.
It seems you didn't eat a lot of peanuts. Only anchovies are gone.
- Peanuts are too fatty for me.
- What are you talking about in this mess?
- I need to stay healthy.
- Peanuts are good for your health.
- Really?
I heard peanuts have a lot of calories.
- I see.
- I'm already fat, so
- That one is also fried anchovies.
- The mother of our company owner gave them to me.
- The owner of your company, I see.
We just saw three containers for the same food, but
they were all given by different people.
There are all different.
Let's open this one then.
That is
- That's Fried Red Pepper Paste.
The wife of the lighting director gave it to me 2 or 3 years ago.
- I can see the bottom, and
it turned black.
I dipped meat a lot.
- You just dipped it right into this jar?
- It's messy.
Should I throw this away?
- I feel bad, but please do so.
- Sorry.
- Too bad.
- Even the trash can denies it.
It's the first time I saw a trash can get upset.
- The trash can passed out because of the smell.
- Sorry, I'll get it out.
I'm sorry.
I'll dump it somewhere else later.
Poor trash can.
- It was terrified.
What's this?
- This doesn't look that old.
- Did you cut it?
- Yes, I used scissors.
- I can see the signs of being cut with scissors.
- You're right.
People who live alone tend to prefer scissors to knives.
Is this kimchi also from the lighting director?
- No.
That one's from the mother-in-law of my friend who lives in Tongyeong.
- This is it, I guess.
- Is this the one you talked about?
- It's from Jeolla Province.
- My friend's name is Jung Ji-young.
- It's from the mother-in-law of Jung Ji-young.
- Mother-in-law, I see.
- It seems a lot of people are really helping him out.
- Yes, there are a lot of them including Jung Ji-young, the lighting director
- the owner of his company.
- This one is from his hometown friend.
- It's a sauce for Spicy Blue Crab Stew.
- It's from his friend who works in Noryangjin.
I see yogurt down there.
Do you like yogurt?
- I love yogurt.
- This tastes very sweet.
- It's fresh and sweet.
- You're right.
- It has a taste that remains on the tongue.
The thing that remains on the tongue.
That's probiotics, I think.
I think he's really into healthy foods.
It makes me feel healthier.
- OK, I see.
People who live alone don't cook often, but
They try hard to stay healthy, instinctively.
- They have no choice.
- Next to the probiotics
- There are hot peppers.
- I have to eat
three or four of them when eating.
I really do.
- Do you like spicy foods?
- I love them.
I put a lot of hot sauce on my spaghetti.
- Hot sauce.
- Is this for rice roll?
- There should be ham on the side.
Ham for rice roll.
- There it is.
- It feels like eating meat if you eat grilled ham with hot pepper.
- It tastes like meat.
- It really does.
- You know what
It tastes like charcoal grilled beef if you add a little bit of sugar when grilling.
Charcoal grilled beef.
- You two...
- That's a good tip.
- It's amazing.
- It's excellent.
- Are you doing this because you don't have money to buy meat?
- No.
I just think it gets messy and takes a long time.
Sometimes, you have to defrost the meat as well.
I'm just trying to minimize the movement and time wasted.
I'd rather do what I want to do during that time instead.
- He's being real.
- He's right.
The people living apart alone in the drama are too fictional.
- They live too well.
- It is nonsense.
- This is real.
It's a documentary.
- Of course.
There is also seaweed.
He kept it open.
- I remember I closed it.
I think it opened itself.
- What?
- I guess it needed some air.
- I folded it once.
- Is it okay to just fold?
- No way.
It can smell bad, and is vulnerable to humidity.
- If you want to keep it in the fridge, please put a kitchen towel inside.
So it can absorb moisture.
- You mean it should be inside with the seaweed?
- Yes, also don't forget to seal it.
- I didn't think it's that bad.
I usually give the seaweed to my guests.
I let them have it while waiting.
- I see.
- They really love it.
- This is a pork cutlet sauce.
- Pork cutlet.
- Do you like pork cutlet?
- Yes, I do.
Sometimes, I eat
mini pork cutlets on a special day.
I celebrate myself with some old-style pork cutlet.
- Old-style
It's classic.
- I really love them.
- By the way, there is nothing to be used for the main dish.
- I think it's time for onions.
- Onions?
Onions.
- Onions are coming.
- Is that the main dish?
Is it really?
- He's very interesting.
- Onions.
- And here are two potatoes.
- Potatoes.
- Onions and potatoes.
- I think I should stir-fry onions and potatoes.
- Let's hope there's something useful in the freezer as last week.
Let's open the freezer.
- Wow, it's full.
- Dumplings are here.
And smoked chicken breast.
Here are chicken breast sausages.
Why do you have a lot of these?
- You have a lot of them.
- I hate chicken.
- You don't like chicken?
Those are chicken breast sausages that I eat when I'm on a diet.
They don't taste like chicken at all, so I use them.
- I thought they were some regular sausages. It's too bad.
- It's pork belly.
Here's something that can be used for the main dish.
- A small amount of pork belly.
- There was a show where scene stealers did an acting competition.
I won a box of pork belly on that show.
But, that's all I have now.
- It's leftover pork belly then.
- He also gave most of it away.
- It was in the back corner.
It's small.
- It's very little.
- Pork belly.
- Since it's too small, I think I don't have to pick my teeth after eating this.
- But still, we have pork belly now.
- I'm really sorry.
- I think it's going to be a fierce competition.
- Right.
Groceries outside the refrigerator.
By the way, what is this?
- That's my dining table.
- Dining table?
It's a dinning table.
- It's cute.
- It's the dining table that I actually use at home.
- Are these your dishes then?
- The dishes are...
- Do you use these for eating?
- It looks like you love Hello Kitty.
- It's the same thing my daughter used when she was 1-2 years old.
It's still at home.
- I decided to throw them away a few times.
I couldn't do it after looking her face.
- He's attached to it.
- You can see my autograph there.
- Here it is.
"To Myself".
- I did it for myself.
- I can see that here.
- I was so happy when I bought it for the first time.
- It has scratches.
- Her face got burned.
- One of her ears is hurt.
- It's injured.
- Are you still using this?
- Yes, I am.
- There is curry as well.
It's cereal.
Isn't it?
You have cereal, but you don't seem to have milk in the refrigerator.
- I didn't buy milk, so I couldn't eat cereal.
I used to have cereal in the morning.
- It's never been open.
- It's hard for me to go outside to get milk.
- I see.
We just finished examining Si-eon's refrigerator.
Let me introduce the four contestants.
The first seed is Kim Poong with 2 wins and 1 loss.
Poong is the first seed.
The second seed is Lee Yeon-bok with 2 wins and 1 loss.
The third seed is Chung Ho-young with 1 win.
The fourth seed is Sam Kim with 2 losses.
Poong is the first seed, and Sam Kim is the last seed.
Let's look at today's cooking themes.
Please show them on the screen.
The first theme is Dragon From Pond.
- It's not like I don't do something because I don't want to do it.
I just fear the future and failure.
Many people will doubt if becoming a dragon from pond is really possible.
If you make a good dish with my poor groceries
I believe people who live apart alone like me
can live with hope.
- What does Si-eon Si-eon mean?
- There is no point of becoming a dragon
If you can't follow things easily.
I want a dish that I can easily make only with scissors.
Those who live apart alone are not good with knives.
- You're right.
No wonder why you cut Kimchi with scissors.
- It's not like I don't do it. I just can't.
I would've done it if I knew how to do it.
Skillfully like this.
- How long does it take to cook normally?
- About 10 minutes?
5 to 10 minutes, I guess.
- 5 to 10 minutes?
Let's make that 10 minutes.
- No.
- Since he's very cool
- Why
Why do you keep shortening the time?
- Cooking in 10 minutes only with scissors?
- Sam Kim can choose first.
- He likes naturalism, so he can just cut with scissors and sprinkle the sauce.
- Yeon-bok's leading him
- to choose the second theme.
- Everything else is fine. I'm just worried about cutting carrots.
- Carrots.
- Carrots don't cut well.
- I think it'll be fun though.
I'll give it a try.
- Si-eon Si-eon?
- Si-eon Si-eon.
In 10 minutes.
Can you?
- In 10 minutes?
- You're usually very slow.
- I'll be doing a very simple dish.
- Simple one?
It's Ho-young's turn now.
- I'm good with knives, but I can't handle scissors well.
So I choose Dragon From Pond.
- Dragon From Pond.
He chose the first one.
Now, Yeon-bok and Poong are left.
- I'm choosing first, right?
- Poong usually chooses first, but this time
- You're right.
- Yeon-bok chooses first.
- It's a relief.
- Where is this going
- To be honest, I really need that pork belly, so
I'm going to have to choose first.
- Right.
- So I choose Dragon From Pond.
- Dragon From Pond.
He chose the first one.
Then, we have a match between Sam Kim and Poong.
Poong has no choice, but Si-eon Si-eon.
- Poong is really good with scissors.
- I'm good at 15-minute cooking.
Poong is likely to rank first, and
Sam Kim can lose three matches in a row then.
With the groceries inside the fridge of Si-eon
We will begin cooking matches.
The first one is the match between Yeonhui-dong Brothers.
Lee Yeon-bok versus Chung Ho-young
- They had several match-ups last season.
Yeon-bok is winning with a record of 3:2, but
- It's close.
- It's very close.
- That's right.
Ho-young said that on the day when he defeated Yeon-bok
In the car on the way to Yeonhui-dong.
the air got cold like Siberia.
I heard it's very cold.
In the last match when Cha Tae-hyun was our guest
Ho-young defeated Yeon-bok again.
- That's right.
- How was the mood on the way home?
- I heard it wasn't good.
- I was just kidding, but
If I win this match, please call a car for Yeon-bok.
- He'll need a ride.
- He may need a ride, right?
- He's saying he'll need a separate ride
- Do you really want us to call a car for you?
- Don't believe what he says.
I bet he's joking. He's a true entertainer now.
- He's right.
- I'm really sorry. I feel like I'm not offering any useful one.
- I don't see anything there, really.
- Are you not prepared yet?
- I picked up pork belly first.
- First.
- There was no pork belly, so I took ham.
- You did?
Sam Kim and Poong can't use pork belly and ham then.
- That's right.
- What do they cook with then?
- He even took crab meat.
- Can I ask him to leave the ham a little?
- I'll decide after seeing how much you can support me.
- He'll decide later
after he sees how much Sam Kim can support him.
- He is a true entertainer now.
- He really is.
He's playing.
- What are you making today?
- The title of my dish is Ham Kachu Yakisoba Chu.
- I think he's fully prepared.
- He's a true entertainer now, indeed.
- Si-eon said he enjoys mini pork cutlets on special days.
Since I don't have any pork or bread crumbs.
I'm going to grind cereals to make Ham Kachu.
I'll also stir-fry ramen with ham to make Japanese-style Yakisoba.
Since it can be dry and crumbling alone.
I'm going to cover it with eggs to make it soft.
- I like that very much.
- I think he really knows what Si-eon likes.
- What are you cooking?
What was the title?
- Ham Kachu Yakisoba Chu.
- I think he started going to dancing school.
- Did he come up with the title by himself?
- Of course, including the dance.
Si-eon is very satisfied.
- Today, I'll be making a dish with the hope that
Si-eon would become a world star like Brad Pitt, so its title is Bread Pig.
- Bread Pig.
- Since I took the pork belly, I'll go with Bread Pig.
- I'll put the meat inside
Chinese flat bread.
If the bread gets baked well, it splits itself.
It looks like Si-eon loves spicy foods.
There is a spicy pork dish in China.
- I see.
- I don't have much here, but I'll add hot peppers to make a dish similar to that one.
I'll stir-fry and put them inside the bread.
- Now, I can see why the title is Bread Pig.
Japanese-style versus Chinese cuisine.
- I think I'll be a close match.
- It's going to be exciting.
With the groceries in Si-eon's refrigerator.
Let's begin the match of Dragon From Pond.
Lee Yeon-bok versus
Chung Ho-young.
Who will be smiling in the car returning to Yeonhui-dong?
Let's find out.
The 15-minute cooking match begins now.
Yeonhui-dong brothers.
Yeonhui-dong.
- Somebody has to smile.
- It's a match between two good friends.
- It seems Yeon-bok is making a dough.
He's making a dough for bread.
-Oh, Bread.
Bread.
Yeon-bok is making a dough.
- I have to make oil dough and water dough separately.
- How are they different?
Is there any reason?
- In this way, I can make a layer between them.
I'll mix them.
- When they get mixed
- They don't stick together.
Since there are oil dough and water dough
They create a layer between them.
- The bread can split.
- He's targeting cereals.
He's grinding cereals.
- It seems they're not normal cereals.
- They're strawberry cereals.
- I think it's a disaster.
If he uses them as bread crumbs
- They can burn.
What kind of ingredient is that?
- It looks like marshmallow.
- Those are dried strawberries.
- They can burn then.
- He made a decision before opening it.
He could never imagine that there would be
strawberry cereals inside.
- Isn't it something unexpected?
- You're right.
No one expected them to be strawberry cereals.
You should've told us.
- Is it going to be a strawberry pork cutlet then?
- It looks like it's going to be red.
- It's better than chocolate though.
- You're right.
- It could've been worse.
- He just put ramen into the boiling water.
Is it going to be like yakisoba?
- Yes, it is.
- He's mixing the oil dough with the water dough.
- If
If he does that
- I can see what he's doing.
- He's making layers like pastry.
- This is science.
- He's folding it nicely.
- I wonder how that bread will turn out.
- Right.
- I doubt if he can really make bread in 15 minutes.
Since it's flour dough
If it doesn't cook well, it can smell like flour.
- Right.
I guess he's taking a risk.
I can't wait to see how it turns into bread.
The water dough and the oil dough are mixed there.
- He's using it like an oven by covering it with a lid.
- He's slicing vegetables.
- Oh, crab meat.
- Noodles.
As expected
It's Japanese-style.
- I think he's doing it too early.
Look at the time.
- Is it too early?
The noodles can get soggy.
They still have 6 minutes and 20 seconds left.
- It's okay.
- Is it? I see.
- He's cutting meat.
It's pork belly.
- Since the meat is too thick, I have to cut it a little sideways like this.
- I see.
In the following match, the chefs are not allowed to use any knife.
You could've been in trouble.
Lee Yeon-bok.
He should've torn it by hand.
- I don't think he can do that with scissors.
- You made a good choice.
Onions.
He's making it spicy.
Hot peppers.
Yeon-bok is putting a lot of hot peppers in it.
- I can smell the pepper here too.
- Tell me about it.
I have tears.
- I eat one at a time, not all at once.
- He's crushing them.
He's smashing them.
- Like he smashes garlic.
- That's perfect, right?
- Yes.
- That looks perfect.
- He crushed them nicely.
- Ho-young's putting ketchup in the zip bag.
- He's going to squeeze it on the yakisoba
like this.
- He's making a hole in the corner.
- What is being dipped in the paste?
- It's batter.
- Batter and cereals
I smell strawberries.
The unexpected strawberry cereals.
- I can see strawberry powder here.
- It's a strawberry pork cutlet.
- Strawberry pork cutlet.
- It turned blue.
- I didn't want to burn it.
- The ham doesn't need to be fried for a long time, in fact.
- Ho-young is doing the presentation on a plate already.
- 5 minutes left.
- Jung-hwan will go over there to check.
Could you taste the bread crumbs?
- These?
- Yes.
- Is the taste okay?
- Is it sweet?
- Sweet.
There is a strawberry flavor as well.
- Strawberry flavor.
I see.
- It seems the pork doesn't cook fast.
- I think it's going to take some time.
He's making a nice omelet.
- He's lightly tapping it.
- He's making a yakisoba omelet.
- It's supposed to be come out like a rugby ball.
- Many give up on this part during the practical test of the cook license exam.
- I think he's covering it with the omelet.
- It's not going well.
Not good.
- He has to cover it with the omelet.
- Not going well.
- That's it.
- Excellent.
It's perfect.
- It's a relief.
- I thought it was crumbling.
- He was surprised as well.
- He's doing the presentation.
- He's doing it.
- Mayonnaise.
- He's squeezing it from the tube.
It's perfectly Japanese-style.
- It looks similar to mine, doesn't it?
- And ketchup.
He's squeezing it as well.
- Here comes the bread.
- The bread is coming.
Yeon-bok's bread has been baked.
Is there space inside the bread?
His bread is done.
- The bread seems to be very hot.
- Is there space in it?
- His hands are trembling.
- If that's hot, I would've been dead already.
- I wish there was room inside the bread.
It's done.
Ho-young's dish is done.
There is room inside.
Now, Lee Yeon-bok
I think he's putting the meat there.
Only 45 seconds left.
- I think the meat is done.
It's been browned nicely.
- Is it done?
- I'm going to use all the remaining time.
- He's taking it slow.
- I think he's deliberately doing it to get Ho-young's noodles soggy.
- You're right.
He doesn't want to finish early.
I can see his will not to finish early.
- It's amazing.
- The noodles are turning into rice sticks.
It's a smart strategy.
He's using all the remaining time.
7 seconds left.
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
- He finally finished it.
- It's done.
Only 0.09 seconds were left.
It ended with 0.09 seconds remaining.
- He surely is a master who can control time.
- How do they look?
- They really are two dragons from pond.
I really mean it.
First of all, I'd like to thank you both very much.
How do I eat this dish?
- You should eat the noodles first since they are a little bloated already.
- I see.
- The eggs are very soft.
So it'd be better if you eat the noodles with them.
Please enjoy the noodles first.
- I think they should've been swollen up less.
No, already.
No way
- They're soggy.
- He's cutting the noodles.
- I think Yeon-bok's strategy is working.
- He's cutting them.
- We don't usually cut noodles.
- Right.
- The noodles have expanded.
- They look soggy.
- He's supposed to eat them with the eggs, right?
- It looks delicious though.
- I think he likes it.
- My goodness.
This is real.
- He's eating like a hunting dog.
- It's real.
- He loves it.
- Wow.
Let me have it a little more.
- He's eating it a little more.
- This suits my taste.
- You seem to be very surprised.
I think he really loves it.
- This perfectly suits my taste.
- Really?
Wow.
- I love it.
- He loves it.
- Try them with the eggs.
- I think he really likes noodles.
- It's really good.
Now
- The strawberry pork cutlet.
- It's time to taste the strawberry pork cutlet.
- The problematic one.
- I'll try only half of this first.
- He's being careful with it.
- What's that red thing inside?
- Don't worry. It's just ham.
- I was shocked.
I thought it was strawberry.
- Since it was all red inside
- I can smell the strawberry flavor.
- Really?
Yes, I can smell it.
- Strawberry cereals
- I wonder what it tastes like.
- It can taste sweet.
- Strawberries and cereals have melted together, so
It tastes a bit like caramel somehow.
- Caramel?
- It doesn't taste like pork cutlet, but
- I can say it's sweet.
You're saying it tastes sweet, right?
- I think I should apologize.
I should've told you about this earlier.
- You're right.
- But the other one was really delicious.
It was like he already knew what I liked. I like spicy yakisoba, and
I also love noodles.
I really felt like I was in Osaka.
- Mine is probably spicier than you think.
- It looks wonderful.
- I think it would be still delicious even if you eat only bread.
There is hot pepper as well.
- It looks delicious.
- He's finishing it in one bite.
- He's a real man.
- That's it.
- He put the whole thing in his mouth.
- What a man.
- He's a real man.
- It's very spicy.
- Is it?
- It seems that it's very spicy even for Si-eon.
- He's giving a hand.
- I usually
have meat with pepper
to taste the pepper rather than the meat.
But here, I can feel both meat and pepper at the same time.
They just go hand in hand.
- Hand in hand.
- They're helping each other.
- It's very harmonious.
- I'll just try the meat this time.
- OK, only the meat.
Separately.
- He's smiling.
- He looks satisfied.
- He loves it.
- There was nothing in my fridge. I don't know how this happened.
- But still, there must've been something useful inside.
- It's very delicious. I really mean it.
I can't think of any good words to express this.
It is just so perfectly delicious.
- Really?
- This one perfectly fits my taste as well. It's spicy.
- It is the best of the spicy flavors I made on this show.
- Really?
Hyun-seok is crying probably because of the spicy flavor.
His eyes turned red.
- No, I was deeply moved by the fact that he was enjoying the dish.
Why am I so happy?
- I think you yawned just because you're sleepy.
- Si-eon is really enjoying it.
- There are 8 hot peppers inside the dish.
- It must be very spicy.
- He's trying only pepper this time.
- Wow.
- He's the hot man.
- Let's taste them then.
Ho-young's Ham Kachu Yakisoba Chu.
- Yakisoba Chu.
- Let's try Yakisoba Chu.
- I think the people living apart alone will love this.
- Exactly.
It's really their style.
- Wow.
- I think kids will love this.
- This makes me feel good.
- Ham Katsu is also very interesting and special.
- Isn't this a bit like hot dog?
- It's got some special taste.
It's interesting.
- It's similar to the hot dog that was sold around the school in the old days.
- I think we can actually sell this at a stationery store around the school.
- You're right.
- In fact
- I think kids will all gather in the neighborhood for this.
From 4th graders to 6th graders
I'm sure they will love this.
- Kids will go crazy about this.
- Wow, it's amazing.
You love it, right?
- It's very good.
- I agree.
- Didn't you say you're already full?
My stomach got empty all of a sudden.
I'd like to have it more.
- I've never seen anybody who digests while eating.
- It's absolutely amazing.
- Isn't it?
- I think kids will love this taste, and it's also easy to make.
If you put squid and sliced pork belly here and stir-fry them together
I think it will be more delicious.
Bacon would work as well, I think.
- I should make this for my daughters at home.
- Let's try Yeon-bok's dish this time.
Bread Pig.
There's meat inside the bread.
- The pepper flavor is very strong.
- I should put the meat there, right?
- I think it's too spicy for him.
Look at his face.
It's still spicy without eating the pepper.
- I think it's fine.
- You are almost Korean, so I understand.
- I need some rice.
I really do.
They'll go well together.
It's spicy in a good way.
It's good.
- As you said, it has a clean taste.
It tastes refreshingly spicy.
- It feels like my lips are being swollen.
- You're right.
- It looks like you applied some lipstick there.
- It's burning.
- My tongue is fine, but
- My lips are burning.
Then it is time for the selection.
- It's hard.
- Don't worry about anything else.
Just make a choice based on taste.
- OK.
- The first one is Chung Ho-young's dish, and the second one is Lee Yeon-bok's.
Please decide and press the button.
- I did.
- He did.
It's time to find out who he did choose.
Will Lee Yeon-bok make it to three stars?
Will Chung Ho-young win two matches in a row?
- Let's see the result.
Who's your choice?
Lee Yeon-bok.
Lee Yeon-bok won.
- The theme is related to dragons, right?
I thought Lee Yeon-bok's dish was
more refined and classy.
I thought it's a real dragon.
It was very delicious.
It was a taste that I felt before somewhere.
If the theme was about the journey back in time, I would've chosen this one.
- The journey back in time.
- Since it was about dragons, I thought this one was more relevant.
- It's more refined and classy.
This one is a python.
That one is a dragon.
- Right.
- Ho-young doesn't look pleased.
- It's okay since I can ride him home easy this time.
I'll give him a safe ride.
- Sounds good.
You two can take it easy this time.
Great.
He's the first seed now.
Lee Yeon-bok was Si-eon's choice.
- Thank you.
- Congratulations.
It's time to start the second match.
It's been a long time.
It's the so-called Sam-Poong match.
It's their first match this year.
With a record of 6 wins and 3 losses from the last season.
Poong is winning right now.
It's a double score, and also
The theme fits Poong's style well.
- Are we really doing this in 10 minutes?
- Yes, we are.
Did you remove all the knives?
- Yes.
- All the knives have been removed.
- There isn't any knife.
- Only scissors are allowed in this match.
Sam Kim doesn't have any star.
- If you lose this time, you'll lose 3 matches in a row.
- Three losses in a row.
You're losing them all then.
In this case, Poong will rank first with Lee Yeon-bok.
- He'll have three stars as well.
- Sometimes, it seems to be easy to win a star.
For Poong, it looks easy.
- But for other chefs, it looks difficult.
- Right.
- It's a bit strange.
- What is your strategy today?
- First of all, I think I should simplify the cooking steps.
I will also watch closely
how Poong does it from time to time.
There must be some points that I can steal.
- He decided to peek.
He's peeking this time.
What is your strategy?
- I've been living alone for a long time, and
I have an experience of cooking for 5 years without a knife.
Only with scissors
I could take care of cooking from start to finish.
I'll try to recall my old memory to
make the dish Si-eon can really enjoy.
- Could you show us what you have?
- Actually, the things I got from the fridge are dried hot pepper.
- Dried hot pepper.
- and ham.
Is that all?
- Is that it?
- My goodness.
- What should I do?
- I'm really sorry.
- How about you?
- Si-eon doesn't like that.
He's been forcing himself to eat that.
- There is nothing.
- Nothing.
- There isn't anything.
- I have no other choice.
This is all I have.
- The other chefs used all the useful ones previously.
- To be honest, I'm screwed.
Since he doesn't like this
- I doubt if he can really make a good dish.
- That’s what I’m saying.
What are you cooking today?
- The title of my dish is Easy Oyako.
- Easy Oyako.
Oh, Easy Oyako.
- I see.
- Easy Oyako.
- It's a Japanese dish.
It's a rice bowl dish with chicken.
It's easy to make it at home. I'll also show how to make it spicy
by making chili oil, not using hot pepper.
- Then you're saying you'll make the Japanese-style dish
- With ham.
- Using ham and eggs.
- The title of my dish is Don't Know Chicken.
- Don't Know Chicken.
It sounds like a chicken dish.
- It's based on Thai Chicken Curry.
It's chicken fried with curry powder.
It'll be somewhat similar to existing fried curry rice, but
I'll make it taste something different from curry.
First of all, it's really easy to make.
While cooking
I'll give you more explanations to make it much easier.
We can also share each other's feeling as a person living alone.
- Can you really make it in 10 minutes?
- I can finish it in 5 minutes without saying anything.
So normally, it would take about 7 minutes.
- My goodness.
The mission seems to be too easy for Poong.
- I feel bad for Sam Kim.
- Oyako.
- Sam Kim Oyako.
- Unfortunately, you met Poong in this match.
- Is there anyone who wants to use his Hello Kitty dishes?
Hello Kitty dishes?
- Here, I'll use them.
It's mine.
I'll use them. It's mine.
- He's far ahead already.
I feel bad for Sam Kim.
- Sam Kim, there is another one. Don't you want it?
It's a rice bowl.
- No, thanks. I'll do it my way.
- Wow, Sam Kim.
- You might lose.
- Oyako.
You might lose three times in a row.
With the groceries in Si-eon's fridge
Let's begin the cooking match.
The best non-professional cook
Kim Poong versus Sam Kim
Sam Kim's finding a way to come back.
Who'll be the winner?
The 10-minute cooking match begins now.
10 minutes.
Just 10 minutes.
- He's relaxing.
- People living alone don't like to cook.
Look at him.
- He's showing off.
- He's acting.
- He's pretending.
- "I'm hungry, so I have to eat something anyway".
- Right.
- You oil the frying pan like this first.
Then you put a spoonful of crushed garlic here.
It has to be a plenty of oil.
- One minute passed already.
- Sam Kim's cutting it with scissors.
I've never seen him doing that.
He's actually using scissors.
- It's very challenging.
- You're right.
He's preparing vegetables.
- Scallion won't cut well.
- He could've done it fast with a knife.
- But Poong seems very skillful.
He's fast.
It's fast.
- He's turning it around.
- He seems very relaxed.
- This is how you should slice scallions with scissors.
- He looks very skillful.
- In fact, I can cut onions with scissors.
- Onions as well.
Really?
- It's working.
- He is really doing it with scissors.
- Sure.
- I can cut them with scissors.
- Everything is possible.
- I have to turn it around.
Otherwise, it slips.
- You're right.
- He's entirely different from Sam Kim.
- Sam Kim's cutting it as if cutting paper.
He's also tearing them.
He's doing it piece by piece.
- It's too hard for Sam Kim.
- He's different.
- Then you put half spoonful of soybean paste here.
- Half spoonful of soybean paste.
- You put 3/4 of curry block here.
3/4 of curry block
Then you put a spoonful of chili powder here.
- Add another spoonful of chili powder.
- Two spoonfuls in total then.
- Pork cutlet sauce?
- Two spoonfuls.
Was it supposed to be two spoonfuls originally?
- No, I just felt like it.
- I think he's using everything inside the fridge.
- There is no original plan.
- He's adding more.
- Oyster sauce.
- Put two spoonfuls of it here.
- I think he's doing everything on impulse.
- Already there.
- I'm calculating it in my head.
I'm not messing it up. Don't worry.
- He's taking out peppers.
I think those were just for the spicy flavor.
1.5 minutes left before I go over there.
- Time flies.
- I'll there soon.
- Crush chicken breast with a Soju bottle.
- Soju.
You use the bottle only, not the contents.
- I see.
- As you can see here
Chicken breast has been already torn nicely like this.
You just have put it here like this.
- Seems less stiffer.
- It's a good idea.
- Right.
- Then you put eggs here like this.
Just two on one side.
Then you stir them a little until they get cooked.
Then you pour some water into it.
- Si-eon, do you think you can follow his instructions?
- So far, what I've learned from him is
to throw everything around into the dish.
- This one is similar.
All you have to do is to squeeze everything into the dish.
- 5 minutes left.
- Already?
Only 5 minutes left.
I'll visit there.
I'll try Sam Kim's soup.
Sam Kim's soup
- What do you guys think?
Is it bad?
- Oyako.
I feel bad for Sam Kim.
- He's in trouble.
- Too bad.
- It needs a chemical seasoning.
Oyako.
Let me try Poong's sauce.
- The color looks great.
- It's strong.
- It looks delicious.
Since there is curry inside
- It brings back old memories.
I remember the taste. I did this too.
This way, you can eat a lot of rice.
- Of course.
- It's perfect with rice.
But Sam Kim is in trouble.
I feel bad for Sam Kim.
You mixed it with rice, right?
- Yes.
- Here.
He's doing the presentation.
- He started it already.
He's doing the presentation on the Hello Kitty dish.
I think Si-eon loves it.
It's an art.
The plate is also Si-eon's style.
It fits his taste.
He just finished it.
It's done.
- It's done already.
It took only 8 minutes.
- Poong's easy victory is expected.
He finished it in less than 8 minutes.
In less than 8 minutes.
- I feel bad for Sam Kim.
- It's quite thick.
- Did you add salt?
- One more time.
1 minute and 30 seconds left.
- Is it better now?
- Wow.
- Is it better?
- It got better.
But it tastes like nothing after eating this one.
- No way.
- Oyako.
This one is too strong.
He should've finished it earlier.
He's putting a sauce on it nicely.
- He's putting the pepper oil on it to make it spicy.
He's finishing it.
Three seconds left.
Sesame seeds.
He's putting some sesame seeds on it.
Sam Kim.
- It's his last cut with scissors.
- The last cut with scissors.
He's cutting green onions neatly. Is this some kind of shape?
- No.
- You're not making any shape, are you?
It just doesn't cut well, right?
- It won't cut well.
- He's not doing it well.
Poong is very good at it though.
- It's time to wrap up.
5, 4, 3, 2.
It's done.
It's finished.
Both finished up their dishes.
I think Poong is winning.
It's on the Hello Kitty plate.
I feel sorry for Kitty.
It looks like
- It looks like she's hit with curry rice.
- But it's going to be fun.
We can see her face in the end.
Her face will gradually appear.
- Of course.
- It looks very rough.
It looks like the food a friend living alone treats.
It's not fancy but full of effort.
I can really feel it.
- It looks delicious.
- He's eating it well.
- He doesn't like chicken, but he loves curry.
- In curry
- Is it weird?
- No.
It's not weird, but
- Not strange?
- He looks a bit confused.
- The taste is very familiar.
- It's like something I make at home.
- But
Hold on.
- It's not worth eating on a show, right?
- You could have just made it at home by yourself, huh?
Do you think so?
- He put a lot of things there, but it tastes like curry in the end.
- In a constrained situation, I tried to make a delicious dish that
can make you full. I focused on those points.
- I think it's a right dish for me.
It's easy to make.
Also, I can use just one pan and put everything there.
It's an easy recipe.
I like that part of this dish.
- You're right.
- This one looks like the food that a friend who lives alone in Gangnam treats.
- Do you think it's Gangnam-style?
- Poong's dish seems to be from
a friend who lives in Noryangjin.
- Exactly.
- Sam Kim's dish seems to be from
a rich friend who's doing well.
- A friend who's settled, right?
- Settled.
- Sam Kim is a settled rich friend.
- Driving a fancy car
- Kim Poong takes a subway or cab.
- And he's still studying.
Let's try the dish of a settled rich friend.
- It looks delicious.
- It's the dish of a settled rich friend.
- It's a taste that I have never tried.
- Really?
- It's classy and Gangnam-style.
- Taste of Gangnam
- From a rich friend who drives a fancy car
It's spicy and rich in a good way.
It also has a clean taste.
I could not imagine ham being so luxurious.
But this tastes rather weak after having Poong's dish.
- Right.
- It must be very strong.
- It's time for us to try them.
- Let's try them.
- Let's try Poong's dish first.
- It tastes a bit like Mapo Tofu.
- It's good.
- It's delicious.
- Is it good?
- It's tasty.
- Did you eat it all again?
- Yes, I emptied it.
- I was a bit scared at first, but
It pleasantly surprised me.
- Curry is tastier tomorrow than today, so
I think it's perfect for people who live alone.
- Right.
Also, it goes well with Kimchi.
- It's the taste that makes you not think.
It's intuitive and direct.
Smoked chicken and oyster sauce are mixed here, but
that mixture somehow makes it taste like crab.
- You're right.
- Right.
- It probably is a new discovery.
- Excuse me?
- Did you make the crab taste deliberately?
Oyster sauce.
- Yes, I did.
I think it was a luck.
- I've never been able to make any dish as I intended.
- It's time to try Sam Kim's dish.
- Oyako.
- Let's try his dish.
The dish made by a settled rich friend.
- Settled rich friend.
- Doo-joo finished it all again.
- It's amazing.
- Your stomach can explode.
- I love this show.
Please call me here often. I'll do my best.
- Did you enjoy this one as well?
- It was so good.
It tastes soft.
- It's soft.
- I love it.
- If you don't use eggs well, it can smell bad.
But he put soy sauce and pepper oil in it to make it a little spicy.
I think that made the problem go away. I really enjoyed it.
- Eggs made it a little bit softer, but
The pepper oil has a strong taste.
It's not usually used this away, but the chef tried to make it fit his taste.
- I meant the pepper.
- He did a great job.
I think he's trying hard
to get a star today.
- It's time for Si-eon to make a choice.
