- Turn your leftovers into fine dining.
- Korea's top chefs will empty out your fridge.
- High-quality cooking show Chef & My Fridge!
Welcome.
Nice to see you all.
They're going to present the best cooking shows to celebrate this festive month.
They're like Avengers in the world of chefs. Let me introduce our seven chefs.
Welcome.
Poong's been holding the lead for the last 14 weeks.
We have a special guest chef today. He's here to end Poong's winning streak.
- It has to be someone like Jamie Oliver or Gordon Ramsay at least.
For the sake of this show...
- What a nerve.
Let's meet him first. Please come on out.
- He's a sexy cook.
Kim Min-joon.
Welcome.
We met him on the 100th episode last time.
He had to suffer harsh criticism from Heung-gook.
- You should try the wraps first.
- What is this taste?
Why did you even make this?
You eat it!
- Who's the winner?
Kim Poong!
Poong won.
- He promised he would be back here after practicing.
I heard he's focused only on developing his cooking skills for the last 7 months.
People now want to see him on screen.
- He looks like someone who's been leading an ascetic life in the mountains.
- Is it true that you bought a camper van?
- Yes.
I have a camping caravan.
- There it is.
That must be his caravan.
That's nice since he can cook in his caravan.
I think Poong needs to get ready for it.
- I'm glad he's holding the lead.
Now I can beat the best one here.
- He can prove he's the best here by defeating Poong, right?
- That's right.
For now at least.
He seems very calm.
- He's so relaxed.
- I can tell he's got much better.
- I think his caravan is paying off.
He's deep-frying it.
Where is he going?
- Where are you going?
- He must've forgotten to bring something.
- It's time to introduce our today's guests.
Please come on out.
Lee Soo-kyung and Hyolyn.
- Welcome.
It's really nice to have these two beautiful ladies here.
- Now I understand why Min-joon wanted to be back here today so bad.
- No wonder.
- It had nothing to do with Kim Poong in the first place.
- It's all because of the female guests.
- Of course.
- I'm such a big fan of hers.
She's so cool, pure, and lovely. It's Lee Soo-kyung.
- Welcome.
- Please say hello to our viewers.
- Hello everyone. I'm Lee Soo-kyung.
It's nice to meet you all.
- Next, it's time to introduce the other guest.
She's a dangerous beauty with the explosive singing ability.
She's the perfect sexy diva.
She's like BeyoncĂŠ in Korea. Let me introduce Hyolyn.
- Welcome.
It's Hyolyn.
- Welcome.
- I'm a huge fan of Sistar.
- Hello everyone.
I'm Hyolyn.
- Wow.
Jae-hoon, could you back off a little? You're too close.
- Sorry, I couldn't help it.
- Mihal, you need to stop smiling. You're showing too many teeth.
Don't get overly excited.
Calm down.
Are you two close?
- I've never met her before, but I'm a huge fan of hers.
- Really? - Yes, I am.
She's so cool.
- Right.
So you have no acquaintance with her, but you're a huge fan of hers, right?
- Right, but I hope we can be good friends from now on.
- Of course, you can.
- Hyolyn, how about you? What do you think of Soo-kyung?
- She looks thinner and prettier in person. I think she's really beautiful.
- I'm so happy to be complimented by a beauty.
- You're like two opposite extremes.
- Right, they're completely different.
- One is innocent, and the other is sexy.
Soo-kyung, I was really surprised by this.
- Really? What's that?
- Are all women like that?
She's washing her bangs only.
Just her bangs. Like this.
- I do that because it takes a long time to dry my hair.
I can make my hair look fresh by doing that.
- Really?
- Yes.
- Min-joon, what about you?...
- Is that even possible?
- It's possible if you have bangs.
- Do you tie your hair back when doing that?
- Just the front part?
- Yes, I tie my hair back first.
- In the sink?
- Yes, but...
- What about conditioner?
- I can wash my bangs anywhere.
I just need water to do that.
- Oh, I see.
Did you wash only your bangs this morning?
- No, not today.
I wanted to look very clean today.
- Right.
Okay, great.
In fact, there is a reason why we have you two here.
Now that summer is approaching, many people are planning a diet.
- Right.
- They both are well-known for keeping their bodies in shape well.
- Does that sound unfamiliar to you?
By the way, there is a twist.
It's not like they don't eat much.
Soo-kyung was maxed out on her credit card
several times because of her food expenses.
- That's true.
- But you don't look like someone who eats a lot.
- I love eating so much that I eat all day.
I eat meat after having sushi, and start over after finishing coffee and dessert.
Basically, I keep eating day and night.
- You drink at night, right?
- It usually starts from the daytime.
- Are you serious?
- Yes.
- It's so unexpected.
Hyolyn.
The members of Sistar are
known as great eaters.
Soyou and Bora were here on our show.
- Soyou and Bora.
- So she's the third one.
Is it really true that you're all great eaters?
- Yes, but I have the largest appetite.
- Really? - Yes.
- I didn't expect that.
- I have the smallest frame
among us.
But I eat the most.
- It's amazing they keep their figures without cutting back.
- I'm doing my best.
- Right?
- Since I have to keep eating...
- Oh, I see.
- I try to exercise more. I'm getting older, so
I figured that working out could be the only answer.
- Are you 26 years old?
- Yes, I am.
- We're too old.
- Don't tell me you're in 30's.
- Seriously?
- I love it here.
- I thought she's 26 at most.
- I just turned 36 this year.
- Really? - 36?
- Let's stop discussing my age. I do work out a lot.
- Oh, I see.
Is it true that you've reduced weight by 20kg before?
- Yes, I was overweight back in high school.
I decided to lose weight to become an actress.
- We heard you're doing different exercises.
- Right.
- Which ones? - I do three different exercises.
Pilates and PT.
I also just started Zumba.
- Zumba.
- It's Zumba, not Zumma.
- Zumma means a middle-aged lady.
It's Zumba.
- It's an aerobic exercise.
It can burn up to 800 calories.
But I can't do it for longer than 10 minutes.
- It takes too much energy.
- Could you show it to us here?
- You just have to move a lot like this.
I'm so embarrassed.
- Just a little.
Anyone who wants to volunteer?
How about you three?
- Min-joon.
- Come on.
Let's go.
Please give us the music.
I hope this will help.
- You have to keep shaking a lot like this.
Keep shaking.
- Are you sure you're doing it right?
- Is this really Zumba?
- Are you sure this is Zumba?
- Excuse me.
Is this Zumba?
- Sorry. It's all because of me.
Zumba...
- Excellent.
- It's a lot of fun.
- Since you have to move the whole body, it takes a lot of energy.
- Min-joon, you do watch your figure, right?
- I start working out the moment I receive the deposit.
- It sounds very professional.
- No wonder he was a professional model.
- Very professional.
Even the signed contract can't make me do work out.
I only get ready at that stage.
- I guess only the money can make him move.
- Then, I can dedicate my soul to the workout.
- Really?
- Sung-joo also doesn't open his mouth until he receives the money.
The moment he receives the money, he starts his opening remarks.
Exactly the same.
- It's time to dig into Soo-kyung's fridge.
You do live alone, don't you?
- Yes. I'm living alone.
- For how long?
- It's been two years.
- Okay.
- She just started living alone then.
- Do you cook at home?
- Yes, but it takes such a long time.
For me, it takes two to three hours to make just one dish.
- Really? Here, everyone has to make a dish in 15 minutes.
- It's so amazing.
- I'm really looking forward to this. Let's open her fridge.
- Wow.
- It's simple.
- It's so neat and clean.
- It really is.
It's well-organized.
It looks quite minimal.
- Right.
- The third section is attracting our attention.
It's filled with liquor.
- It's because my wine fridge is full.
- Is there a wine fridge at home?
- Let's go through them.
This is the container for eggs.
- Since summer is just around the corner, I put sweets there.
- Do you like sweets?
- Yes, I love chocolate, candies, gummies, and cookies.
I love all kinds.
- Do you keep them in the fridge during summer?
- Yes.
I like to cool them.
- Oh, I see.
- How come she's not gaining weight from eating these sweets?
- It's hidden. That's why you don't notice it.
- Really?
- This must be kimchi.
- My friend's mother made that kimchi.
- When did she make this?
- I remember it's last winter.
- It's aged kimchi then.
- It's covered with snow.
- We can still eat this, right?
- Of course. - It's edible.
- Those are all probiotic lactic acid bacteria. - Right.
Let me see.
Is this kimchi as well?
- Yes, it is.
- It's kimchi.
- I bought it last November, but I've never opened it.
- Did you keep it at room temperature?
- It gets really cold in winter...
- But it's summer now.
- Summer is almost here.
- I hope it won't explode.
- Don't ever open it. - Did you really keep it at room temp?
- I'm sure it's gone bad.
- Since it's hers, why don't we let her open this?
- You should since you're supposed to take care of my fridge today...
- Shall I?
- Wait. Wow...
It doesn't look good.
- My goodness.
- I think it's gone bad.
- Oh my...
- Do you think you can save it?
- I don't think we can save this.
- My goodness.
Really?
- Is it okay to eat?
- It's edible.
- Are you serious?
You should make Stir-fried Pork or Kimchi Stew with it.
- I won't eat it.
- Hyun-soo, what do you think? Is it okay to eat this?
- You should stir-fry or use it for stew.
- It smells really old.
- Next.
- Here is meat.
- It's meat.
- I have both pork and beef.
I love meat.
So I'm expecting to see some meat dishes today.
- Oh, I see.
- She loves meat.
- It's so funny that
Min-joon keeps writing things down without talking.
- He's writing
everything down.
- Kim Min-joon.
- What a great attitude.
- Good.
Let's look at the third section this time.
I see five bottles of wine here.
Is this wine as well?
- Those are champagne and white wine.
- Wow, the champagne is huge.
- People pop this kind of champagne when they win championships.
Wearing goggles.
- Exactly.
Do you pop the champagne at home?
- I was going to pop it when the drama show ended, but I've been too busy.
- How much can you drink?
- One bottle of soju.
- One bottle?
- Are you talking about this bottle?
- My goodness...
- I mean a small bottle.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
- What kind of alcohol do you especially like?
- I love all kinds.
- All kinds?
- Yes.
- Let's look at the next section.
It's lemon grass.
I see different kinds of herbs here. Is this sweet potato porridge?
- I have a weak stomach, so I often eat porridge.
- Really? Is it serious?
- Yes, I think it's getting worse because of works.
- Are you sure it's not because of alcohol?
- Yes, I'm sure it's because of works.
I've been so busy that I couldn't let my liver have some time to recover.
- Let's find out why she has a bad liver.
- Let's take a look.
- Here are avocados.
I see both avocados and apples here.
Do you eat these for your health?
- I bought them for my stomach and liver.
- Do they really help?
- They detoxify your liver.
- Green vegetables and fruits are the best.
- Bean sprouts are also really good for your liver.
- I don't like bean sprouts.
I can't stand the smell of bean sprouts.
I also can't eat
cinnamon, mugwort, and water parsley.
- They all have strong scents.
- She doesn't like water parsley, bean sprouts, and carrot.
- I can't stand their scents.
- Okay, I see. It looks like you have various kinds of cheese here.
I see melon and mango cheese here.
- Cheese...
- It's obvious these are for drinks.
- It's champagne.
- It's a tiny bottle of champagne.
- It's a mini bottle.
- You can finish this at once like this, right?
- Right before you go to bed?
- I bought it because it's cute.
- Right. - I can't stop buying it.
- Let's see.
No wonder she has a bad liver.
I see different kinds of liquor here.
- I bought them because they're pretty.
- It's beer.
- Why do you have plastic foam here?
- To protect the bottle...
It looks like she treasures this.
This one seems very rare.
- I like to buy rare ones sometimes.
I mean something that looks interesting.
That's really old.
- Okay.
I think this one is from China.
- It's Zha Cai. I bought it because it looked interesting.
But it has such a strong smell, so
I've never tried it.
- This section is also filled with liquor.
It's hard to believe she has a bad liver because of works.
Those are old.
- I hope so.
- She said she bought them because they're pretty.
- Let's believe her.
- It's raspberry wine here.
I hope you bought this because of its pretty bottle.
- I'm sweating.
- We just found something that's not liquor.
Finally.
It's shrimp.
Here they are.
It's scallop. - Scallop.
- It's seafood.
- Do you like seafood?
- I'm a big fan of seafood.
I love white fish, scallop, and shrimp.
- I see rice noodles here.
- I eat it for a hangover. It works the best.
- I guess there's no need to discuss why she has a bad liver.
It's natural to have a bad liver if you drink and eat spicy food all the time.
- We've figured out why she has a bad liver.
- I love to watch liquor bottles. That's all.
- Okay, I see.
But it's interesting that she has a bad liver
even though she just watches them.
- I get drunk from just watching them.
- Okay, if you insist...
I guess this is it.
We just looked at the inside of her fridge.
It's filled with alcohol.
It's comparable with those of Choi Ji-woo and Han Go-eun.
Next, it's time to see her wish dishes.
Let's take a look.
"It's All Because Of My Liver~".
That's the first one.
The second one is "My Drinking Buddy~".
- I'm really busy all the time.
I also drink a lot, so I think my liver is getting worse.
- You're also getting older.
- Right, I want some dishes that are good for my liver.
Second of all, I must finish the champagne soon.
So I'd like to have some dishes that go well with the champagne.
- Okay, the dishes that match well with the champagne.
- I want to see something more than grilled meat.
- You want to taste them with champagne today, right?
- Yes, let's pop the big bottle.
- I'm sure she's here to drink the champagne.
- Right.
It's so obvious. Look at her wish dishes.
It's time to announce today's contestants.
The first seed is Kim Poong. He has 5 stars.
He's holding the lead alone.
The second seed is Lee Yeon-bok. He has 4 stars.
It's very close.
The third seed is Mihal. He has 4 stars.
- There will be big matches.
- The last seed is Kim Min-joon.
Min-joon has to compete with one of them today.
What did you write down there?
- These are mostly ingredients.
- Let me take a look.
- Sorry, I have a really bad handwriting.
- Let's take a look.
Are you talking about this part?
Eggs, plain yogurt, beef.
Why is "jar" circled?
- It's "sweets".
Sorry, my bad.
It looks like he's going to use all the good ingredients.
Min-joon gets to choose first.
- For me, the first theme seems more difficult.
So I'll go for the second one.
- The second one.
- "My Drinking Buddy~".
- She's talking about snacks eaten with drinks, right?
- I drink almost every day, but
I always stay healthy as you all know.
- The chefs here got health checkups last time. Mihal had the best result.
It's really ironic. He drinks all the time.
- He really drinks every day.
- He even falls asleep on the ground sometimes.
- My goodness.
- Let's see what's his secret.
"It's All Because Of My Liver~".
The first one.
He chose the first theme.
- I think I should let Min-joon have a return match with Poong.
- Okay.
- So I'm going for the first theme today.
- "It's All Because Of My Liver~".
Then, there will be a match between Kim Poong and Kim Min-joon today.
- Today, I will show you
why I'm the top chef here.
- He's basically saying he's going to make a fool of Min-joon.
We just heard Poong's resolution.
It's time to begin
today's cooking matches.
The first match is Lee Yeon-bok versus Mihal.
"It's All Because Of My Liver~".
I can't believe we're really doing this liver cleanse dish match.
- She's the first one to ask for liver cleanse dishes here.
- Right.
Mihal is known for getting dead drunk.
So I think he has an advantage.
Mihal, how do you feel?
- I love it.
I'm so happy that I want to cry.
- He seems very happy.
Yeon-bok, how about you?
- Many people visit Chinese restaurants to eat soup for a hangover.
They usually crave Crab Meat Soup and Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup.
- Right.
- I prefer Thick Broth Noodle.
Right.
- Thick Broth Noodle.
- They warm and relax your body.
- I'm expecting to see an amazing Chinese liver cleanse dish today.
- Right.
The drinkers all over the country are paying close attention to this match.
They are both four-star chefs now.
The winner will share the lead with Poong.
I think it'll be a fierce match.
Mihal, what are you going to make today?
- The title of my dish is Soup, Bottoms Up.
- Soup, Bottoms Up.
- I heard she doesn't like carrot, but
I'm going to make some healthy delicious soup with carrot. Also, I'll use a lot of
avocado since it's good for the liver.
The other ingredients include yogurt, lime,
mint, herbs, and hot pepper.
These are all good for the liver.
- Are you going to use carrot?
- Of course.
- But she said she hates the smell of carrot.
- Are you sure it's a good idea?
- Don't worry about it. I'll make an awesome dish for her.
- He seems very confident. I'm really looking forward to it.
- The title of my dish is Don't Cry, Thick Broth Noodle.
- Wow, Thick Broth Noodle.
- Thick Broth Noodle.
- It must be Thick Broth Noodle.
- I'm going to make shrimp meatballs with shrimp, eggs, scallop, and asparagus.
I'll also put Zha Cai in the meatballs.
I'll be very crunchy.
Next, I'm going to make Thick Broth Noodle with
rice noodles, eggs, and seafood, and place the deep-fried shrimp meatballs on top.
- I can't wait to taste it.
I often eat Thick Broth Noodle for a hangover.
- He showed us how to make Black Bean Noodle last time.
Today, he's going to show how to make Thick Broth Noodle.
It's time to begin the first cooking battle.
Yeon-bok's going to make a healthy Chinese dish.
Mihal aims to detoxify the liver of a beauty today.
Who's going to be the winner? Their 15-minute cooking match begins now.
It's Lee Yeon-bok versus Mihal.
I think drinkers will love this match.
Yeon-bok is handling Zha Cai.
- Zha Cai is really salty.
- He's cutting the meat.
- It's pork neck.
- Pork neck?
- I'm blanching this in boiling water.
I'm doing this
to get rid of the bad smell.
- He's cutting the scallop. It's good for the liver.
Mihal is cutting the carrot. It's also good for the liver.
- I see a lot of carrot.
- Right, it's a lot.
- I think he's going to make soup with ground carrot.
- It must be some carrot soup.
- I think so.
- Why do you hate carrot?
- It's because of the scent...
- Right. That has a strong scent.
- I can't stand the scent of carrot.
- I think he should get rid of the smell.
- Right.
He's stir-frying the apple and carrot.
It says Vitamin C and Pectin of apple release the toxins from the liver.
- It seems Mihal is not using any meat.
- It's not good for the liver.
- So you're saying Yeon-bok is using harmful ingredients, right?
- That's because he doesn't like meat.
- But she said she loves meat.
- You need to listen to the guest.
- Right.
- He's making something that suits his taste.
- It's obviously his taste.
- She said she hates carrot.
- Did you even listen to what she said?
Mihal, why is avocado good for our body?
- It has to be good.
- Oh my...
It says its glutathione prevents the loss of liver cells.
- It's really good for the liver.
- It looks like he's about to grind it.
Yeon-bok, what's that?
- It's ground shrimp.
- Shrimp?
- I really love shrimp.
- It seems he's handling Zha Cai for too long.
- I'm trying to remove the salt, but it's taking longer than I expected.
- How do you feel about salty food?
- I don't like salty food.
- It's extremely salty.
- Okay.
She doesn't like salty food.
Let's ask the top chef a question.
What do you think of the situation?
- I think he needs to give up on it.
- Right?
- Of course.
- The top chef just scolded him.
- Why is it so quiet today?
- Today?
- Maybe it's because they have to cure her.
- Right, they're making healing dishes.
We should get serious and reverent.
- It feels like we're waiting at some general hospital.
- Seriously.
- We're like the patients who're waiting to get treatment.
- They can't add seasoning to the food.
- Yeon-bok is still struggling with Zha Cai.
He's not listening to the top chef.
I hope his patience will pay off.
- He's making shrimp meatballs.
He's deep-frying them this time.
- He's doing it for a better texture.
- Is that starch syrup?
- It's ginger.
- Mihal just added.
the sweet potato porridge.
It's sweet potato porridge.
- Sweet potato porridge.
- It looks really delicious.
He's using only sweet ingredients such as carrot, apple, sweet potato,
and ginger syrup.
- It looks good.
- Here comes rice noodle.
- He's keeping it soaked in water.
- Wow, it's asparagus.
That's good for the liver, right?
- Yes, it's really good for the liver.
- He's taking out shot glasses.
- Those are shot glasses for drinks.
- Right.
- Is that tequila?
- It's like tequila.
You should have it with lemon and truffle salt like this.
- It's time to go over there and taste them.
- I'll go get treatment.
Let's find out if they can cure my liver.
- I'll go get treatment.
- He's a heavy drinker too.
Are you going to grind them all?
- I can't even imagine.
- I see a lot of vegetables there, but she's not a fan of vegetables.
How does it taste?
Do you think it's good for the liver?
- It just made my liver smile.
- Excellent.
It's not too sweet, and
I love the taste of vegetables here.
- His liver loved it.
- I see no soup there.
- I guess he's going to place the deep-fried shrimp meatballs on top.
Wow. - It looks really tasty.
- They look like nest eggs, don't they?
- He also placed scallops on top.
- It's important not to add starch all at once.
You have to pour it little by little.
- It looks just like Thick Broth Noodle.
- Time is running out.
- My goodness.
- You should hurry up.
You don't have much time.
Time is running out.
- 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
It's done. Time's up.
Mihal finished it first.
Yeon-bok also just finished it.
They both made the healthy dishes in time.
He placed avocado on one and lemon on the other.
- That's healthy food as well.
- We usually eat spicy soup or stew for a hangover, but
people in Western countries eat soup to cure a hangover.
- Right.
- They also drink juice.
- They often eat pizza as well.
- It's a liver cleanse dish.
- She's drinking it.
Bottoms up.
- It's soup.
- Really?
- It really is soup.
I was a bit hesitant because of the carrot at first.
But I could drink it easily later on.
The sweet taste really made my liver smile.
It makes me feel very happy.
- Is it that good?
- I ate avocado at the end, right?
It got rid of the smell of carrot.
- So I didn't mind at all.
- It's really good.
- It's a relief that you enjoyed it.
Next, there is lemon on top.
- You should drink it at once.
- She's drinking it.
- There is yogurt in it.
- It looks like she's drinking real alcohol.
- It looks like she's holding finger food.
- You can feel the taste of fruit there.
- She looks very natural.
It's obvious that she's a heavy drinker.
- It's really good.
- Is it good?
- The avocado can be greasy, but
he added hot pepper here.
- Hot pepper.
- Its spicy taste completely gets rid of the greasiness.
It's really good.
I also really enjoyed eating lemon at the end.
I think I can eat these every day to cleanse my liver.
- Really?
- You're going to drink tonight, right?
- I'm sure women will love them.
- But it looks quite thick.
She's really enjoying it.
Does the lemon go well with the soup?
- Yes, it's perfect.
I love lemon.
- Really?
- It looks really sour. That makes my mouth water.
- I love it.
- Really?
- Men love this kind of dish, right?
- It's Thick Broth Noodle. The noodle seems to be cut quite easily.
- Rice noodle.
- It's rice noodle.
- I'm really curious about the taste of this shrimp meatball.
- It's deep-fried shrimp meatball.
- It's so hot.
- It must be very hot.
- Thick Broth Noodle is usually very hot.
- My goodness. It's too late to spit it out.
Just spit it out if you can't stand it.
- Is it good?
- Her face turned red.
- Are you alright?...
- There is Zha Cai inside, right?
- It's not overly salty now.
Its salty taste can neutralize the greasiness of the fried shrimp meatball.
- The top chef told him not to use it.
- I think this must have Zha Cai.
- Really?
- Yes, I think he made the right choice.
It's really crunchy.
- I love its texture.
- It's a lot of fun to eat this dish.
This asparagus goes really well with the soup.
The stickiness of the soup matches well
with the fun texture of asparagus.
- I've never seen any Thick Broth Noodle with asparagus.
- I actually used different ingredients.
They're more quality ones.
- Why don't they just use asparagus then?
- I see the price has to go up then.
Okay.
- They usually use green bean.
I guess he made that texture with asparagus.
- What did the liver tell you?
- My liver?
It's dancing right now.
I think I should go to the second round today.
I really can.
- Okay.
Great. It's time for us to taste them.
Let's taste Mihal's soup first. Soup, Bottoms Up.
- Cheers.
- To our health.
- For the liver.
- It's really good.
- It tastes very healthy.
- It's not strong.
- You should eat the lemon at the end.
- He made two different kinds of soup.
- It's too sour.
- She's twisting her body.
- It's way too sour.
I love it...
- It's peppermint.
- This isn't my style usually, but it's really good. It's very interesting.
- I want to add some alcohol and drink this as a cocktail.
- Exactly.
- That way I can protect my liver as I drink.
- What are you talking about? It's liver cleanse food.
- I think this will make an excellent cocktail.
- Great. Let's taste Yeon-bok's dish this time.
Don't Cry, Thick Broth Noodle.
Let's try the noodle first.
- I love the soup.
- This rice noodle is perfect here.
- It's really good, isn't it?
- Yes.
- You should soak the noodle in the soup.
- Right.
- That's how you eat Thick Broth Noodles.
- "I love this sticky noodle."
- "Did you drink a lot?"
- "I drank too much last night."
- "Did you have a get-together?"
- I love this scallop.
- This makes me want to drink.
- It looks like everyone is curing a hangover in the morning.
They all look like heavy drinkers.
- It's really tasty.
I've never tried Thick Broth Noodle before.
- Really?
- Seriously?
- Thick Broth Noodle is usually not like this. This is a special one.
They taste nothing like this.
- Her first Thick Broth Noodle is made by Lee Yeon-bok.
- I don't think I can eat other ones.
The noodle is really sticky, and I can't stop eating.
- I think I know why Soo-kyung said this goes well with asparagus.
This can be too clean and bland as you eat more.
But the sweet taste of asparagus refreshes your appetite.
This makes you keep eating it.
- Do you think he deserves a compliment?
- Of course, he deserves a big compliment.
- I'm sure he's so happy to be complimented by the top chef.
- My goodness.
- I've never tasted the clear soup made with pork neck before.
The texture of pork neck was amazing.
I never thought it could be so good without being grilled.
- It's time to make a choice.
The liver cleanse dishes that suit her taste.
The first dish is Mihal's, and the second one is Yeon-bok's.
She's pressing a button.
- I just pressed it.
- She pressed it.
- The winner will share the lead with Poong.
It's Lee Yeon-bok versus Mihal. They both are four-star chefs.
"It's All Because Of My Liver~".
Who's going to be the winner?
- The winner is...
Lee Yeon-bok.
He's now a five-star chef.
Yeon-bok won.
He captured her heart with Thick Broth Noodle.
I guess you liked this better.
- It's my favorite dish, and
the soup tasted just right.
I thought Mihal's dish was more like a drink.
- They are sharing the lead for now.
Congratulations. Yeon-bok finally wins the fifth star.
Yeon-bok won. Congratulations.
- Lee Yeon-bok.
It's time to move on to the second match.
It's Kim Min-joon versus Kim Poong.
- He's warming up.
Look at the top chef.
He's calculating.
He doesn't do anything roughly.
- I think he's playing the number game himself.
- Right.
It's Min-joon's return match with Poong.
On the 100th episode, he was defeated by Poong.
Min-joon suffered the humiliation of being lost.
For the last 7 months,
- he's been focusing only on practicing cooking
- traveling around the country in his camping caravan.
Are you less nervous than last time?
- Yes.
I feel much more comfortable.
- He seems much more relaxed.
- He looks really bright.
- As you can see, he looks very different from last time.
- There he is.
- He seems much more relaxed now, doesn't he?
It seems that he has an advantage today.
They said he's good with champagne.
- When I was running an izakaya, I mostly sold champagne and its side dishes.
There are certain ingredients that go well with champagne.
I'm going to make an excellent dish with those ingredients.
- I think he clearly has an advantage today.
- As you all know, I've made
strong appearances in these matches.
But since it's the second match, I'll have to show something definite to win.
So I'm going to put in more efforts today.
- He's aiming for an overwhelming victory.
- That's right.
- Min-joon, what are you going to make today?
- The title of my dish is Please Enjoy Beef Tenderloin.
- Please Enjoy Beef Tenderloin.
- I'm going to make croquette with tenderloin and cheese.
I'll be using cassava chips instead of bread crumbs.
- Cassava chips.
- I'm going to deep-fry it to make it crispy.
Croquette.
- The champagne and croquette. What do you think?
- It sounds very good.
- Do you like the idea?
- I love it.
- Thank you for saying so.
- "Thank you for saying so."
- The title of my dish is Tonight's Snack Is Me~ Is Me~.
- What's that song?
- It's from "Produce 101".
- I'm really sorry.
We're too old for that.
One more time. What's the title of your dish?
- Tonight's Snack Is Me~ Is Me~.
Tonight's Snack Is Me~ Is Me~.
- Great.
He's trying very hard.
Could you explain it?
- It's tart.
- Tart.
- I'm going to make cream sauce with avocado
and mix it with Italian Meringue.
It's much more difficult to make Italian Meringue. Since I have to beat it
at a very high temperature, it takes more energy. I also must not fail it.
I'm sure I can win this match if I make it successfully.
That's about it.
- It's time to begin their cooking battle.
Poong wants to let him feel the high barrier here.
Min-joon has practiced cooking more than acting.
It's Kim Poong versus Kim Min-joon.
The revenge match begins now.
It's tart versus croquette.
- Poong seems very aggressive today.
- Right.
- Poong is about to blend something.
What are you blending?
- I'm blending sugar, yogurt, flour, eggs, and butter.
- He's blending eggs.
- I have to use a lot of butter.
- Really?
- Yes.
- How much?
- Really a lot.
- My goodness.
That's too rough.
- I can see the ratio of flour to butter is 1:1.
- 1:1.
- The ratio of flour to butter is 1:1.
- 1:1.
He's making tart for Soo-kyung. She loves sweets.
What's that?
- It's olive oil.
He's also putting the meat in the bag.
It's tenderloin.
Min-joon, what are you working on?
- I'm going to pound the meat with a meat pounder.
- That way, you don't tear the meat.
- Obviously, he's much better than last time.
He's tapping it with the back of his knife.
He's putting cheese
inside the meat.
- I think he's going to roll it.
- It seems there are different types of cheese.
He's placing a lot of cheese on the tenderloin.
- I think he's using different kinds of cheese to show different tastes.
- He seemed worried and uneasy seven months ago.
But now he's very calm.
- He seems relaxed.
- He's making Italian Meringue.
He's beating it.
- It's difficult to make it, right?
- Right.
- He has to beat it in only one direction.
- It also takes a lot of energy.
He's doing two things at the same time.
Are you making dough?
- It's tart.
- What?
- It's tart.
- He made the dough for tart.
His hands are moving very fast.
- He has to add hot syrup.
- It's Italian Meringue.
- It hardens as the syrup cools down.
- He's adding the hot syrup.
It needs to harden.
- That's it.
- Great. Keep beating it.
- I must not slow down.
- He needs to keep beating it.
It's still thin a bit.
It doesn't look hard enough.
It's still thin. It's not going well.
- He's running out of time.
- Right.
We have 8 minutes and 37 seconds left.
- It seems he can't move his right arm well.
Switch it. Use your left hand.
He's rubbing it.
- It's not going well.
- It burned.
I think it burned.
That's the dough for tart.
I think it burned.
Does it look okay?
Is it okay?
- I'm so impressed by his development. He used to be able to focus on just one thing.
But he's now really good at multitasking.
- Min-joon's recipe seems much more simple.
Min-joon, what's that?
- I just ground cassava chips.
He's deep-frying it now.
He's deep-frying it.
He's deep-frying the croquette.
- It looks delicious.
- He's deep-frying it with herbs.
- Where is he going?
- Where are you going?
- What's going on?
- Hurry up.
- We have only 7 minutes left.
- I need blueberry puree.
- He's looking for blueberry puree.
Let's help him find it. Where is blueberry puree?
- Where is my knife?
Okay.
- Did your hand get burned?
- He's alright.
- He got hurt.
It's the first time he got hurt while cooking here.
Min-joon, did you find it?
- I couldn't find it.
- Really?
He couldn't find it.
Soo-kyung is helping him find it.
Blueberry, right?
- Here it is.
- She just found it.
It's blueberry puree.
I can't believe he couldn't find it.
It's right there.
He's handling the avocado.
- Take it slow.
- Is it because of Italian Meringue?
I lost all the strength in my arm.
Oh my...
- His hands are shaking.
You can give up.
- No way. That won't happen.
- Are you alright?
He just keeps going.
Right, he can't give up at this point.
He also got a cut on his finger. He keeps going despite all the injuries.
- 5 minutes left?
- We have 4 minutes and 40 seconds left.
He's still beating it.
It's taking so long.
He still has some strength.
I think it's almost done.
It's almost done.
- That's it.
- Is it done?
3 minutes and 40 seconds left. He finally did it.
Min-joon is working on the presentation.
He's very fast.
That's blueberry puree.
- Okay.
I think it's going well now.
He's mixing them.
Like that.
Can I taste this?
It's Italian Meringue.
It's mixed with avocado, right?
Let me taste this.
It's Italian Meringue.
- What did it say?
- What did it tell you?
- It said he won.
Wow, Kim Poong.
Min-joon, you're in trouble.
- Is it amazing?
- It's incredible.
His hard work is paying off.
It's unbelievable.
- Move over.
- A fire show.
It's a fire show.
He's finishing it up with a torch.
1 minute and 30 seconds left.
Min-joon, you should try harder.
Poong's dish is amazing.
It seems that Min-joon is finishing it up.
He's spreading some sauce on the top.
- It's calamansi.
Are you done?
He's done.
Here it comes again.
- It's angel hair.
He did that last time.
He's doing it again.
40 seconds left.
He's working on the presentation.
Time is running out.
You should finish it up.
10 seconds left.
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
It's done.
Poong just finished it.
Min-joon finished it first.
It's the croquette made by Min-joon.
- Thank you.
- You should drink champagne a little first.
- Okay.
Let me cut this first.
- Okay.
Don't worry. She's a drinker.
She knows what she's doing.
She cut it first.
She's drinking champagne.
It's such a huge piece.
Can you eat it at once?
- She's really enjoying it.
Does it go well with champagne?
- Of course, it's perfect.
- Really?
She seems very natural.
- The taste of meat matches perfectly well with the flavor of cheese.
It's also very crispy outside because of cassava chips.
- How do you like the herb?
It's thyme.
Doesn't the scent of thyme bother you?
- No, not at all.
- Is it okay?
- It matches perfectly well with other ingredients.
- I think he's learned a lot for the last 7 months.
- For the last 7 months.
- This dish makes me feel so happy.
- Really?
- I cleansed my liver earlier, right?
I think I can finish one or two more bottles.
- How do we eat this?
- Just enjoy in any way you like.
- What about this angel hair?
- Feel free to eat it.
Since you're an angel...
- "Since you're an angel..."
Very nice.
Well...
It has to go well with champagne.
- Let's see.
- Let's read her facial expression.
- I did a food drama show last time.
I learned how to make food look delicious there.
They told me to open my eyes wide when eating.
- Let's see how you do it.
- Open your eyes wide.
There you go.
- Wow~.
This is what I learned there.
- But that's not your real expression.
- That's not real.
- It's really good.
- We need to see your real reaction.
- The moment I eat this tart,
I really feel like drinking champagne.
- It makes you want to drink champagne, right?
Right.
It really makes me feel like drinking champagne.
It's really good.
- My goodness.
- It has an amazing texture.
I also love the combination.
It's not too sweet as well.
- You burned it a little with a torch, right?
How do you like it?
- That makes it taste a bit sweeter.
- I think it's more savory this way. It tastes a bit like caramel.
I love sweet food, so
I think I can eat this all the time.
- With champagne, right?
Great.
It's time for us to taste them.
Let's try Min-joon's dish first.
It's croquette
with cheese inside.
- It's incredible.
- It's really good, isn't it?
- I think women will love this.
- I wish I could express this.
I want to express how delicious this is, but I can't.
- It automatically brings champagne.
- It's automatic.
- Right.
- It's well-balanced.
He added yogurt, blueberry,
and even balsamic vinegar.
So I expected this would be too sour.
But they match well with the cheese inside and the juice of meat.
I also loved how you added a squeeze of lime juice on top.
- Actually, I tasted his dish last time seven months ago.
I can't believe the two dishes were made by the same person.
- Right.
- I'm so impressed.
I really enjoyed it.
It's pleasingly simple.
I was really surprised.
- Let's taste Poong's dish this time.
Tonight's Snack Is Me~ Is Me~.
Wow.
- It's really good.
- It's very tasty.
- It's too sweet.
- I think she's not a fan of sweet food.
- I'm not sure he intended to do this. It's not sweet for tart.
But I can feel the taste of salt from a few grains of salt at the end.
It keeps balancing the sweet taste.
But I'm not sure he really intended this.
- Did you intend it?
- Yes.
I used more salt than usual.
I also used big grains of salt on purpose
to balance the sweet taste.
- He's so calculative.
- I can't believe I defeated him two times.
- It's self-praise.
"I can't believe I defeated him two times."
He's bragging about his wins against Poong.
- I actually defeated him two times.
- It's such a close match.
It's time to make a choice.
The first dish is Min-joon's, and the second one is Poong's.
- I pressed it.
- She pressed a button.
It's time to check out the result.
Please show us the result.
Is Poong going to seize solo possession of the lead?
Is Min-joon going to take down the top chef?
- Who's the winner?
Kim Poong!
Poong won.
Soo-kyung chose Poong's dish.
- Both dishes were really delicious, but I had to look at just one thing.
I think Min-joon's dish can match well with any drinks.
But Poong's dish made me want to drink champagne more.
- I think you two won't be able to work together.
- It's really delicious.
- I hope they won't drink champagne on the drama show.
It will remind of Poong.
- That'll be a disaster.
- Min-joon, it's too bad you didn't win today.
- I actually feel much better now.
- Really?
- I've been in a great deal of pain for the last six months.
I think Soo-kyung made the right choice today.
I really mean it.
- You need to take the caravan out of the underground parking lot.
- The long-term parking is not allowed.
Poong now has six stars.
He maintains the lead.
Congratulations.
It seems that nobody can stop him.
- Girl Crush.
She's a fierce girl.
She's too scared to go to the club.
- I usually invite people over.
- She's turning her house into a club.
- She's a healthy beauty.
How do you keep your body in shape?
- I visited every place such as bakery and grill restaurant
on the way to the gym.
- My goodness.
- Who's going to escape?
They are in a crisis.
- Shake it.
- 3:2. Two spoonfuls of mayo.
A squeeze of lemon.
- He's good at explaining things.
- I don't get it.
- What is he looking for?
- That's not her fridge.
- He must be out of his mind.
- Who's going to be the winner?
- I'm eating too much today.
