Turn your leftovers into fine dining!
Korea's top chefs will empty out your fridge!
A high-class cooking show!
- "Take Good Care..." - "Of The Fridge!"
- It's nice to see you. - It's nice to see you.
These are the champion chefs who will take
responsibility of Monday nights for both 2017 and 2018.
I introduce to you the eight chefs!
Welcome!
It's nice to see you.
At last, it is time for the final competition of the year 2017.
There were many competitions, and this is the final competition of this season.
- We must express our gratitude for this. - Yes.
With Gordon Ramsay's appearance last week, the viewer ratings sky-rocketed.
- We were on the top rankings of the search engine. - As expected.
- We were all over the foreign press as well. - Right.
It's kind of embarrassing to say this ourselves, but the viewer ratings went over 8%.
We made an amazing record.
He threw green onions at me, too.
(MC Sung-joo increased the viewer ratings with green onion shower.)
Anyways, Gordon Ramsay said he would come to our show again to defend his title.
Let's look forward to that.
Jamie Oliver saw this as well,
and said he has a bit of an intention to make an appearance.
- What if we get sued for saying this? - Should we make them compete here?
Exactly.
When Gordon Ramsay comes back, we should make Jamie Oliver make a surprise appearance.
That would be really amazing.
We don't know what will happen from now on.
Please look forward to it.
The 2017 final competition that all of you
have been waiting for will be starting soon.
Chef Lee Yeon-bok, you keep looking at the trophies.
You're very interested in this, aren't you?
- This is the final event of the year. - Yes.
- I should get greedy. - Right.
This year's champion will be decided through a ranking
tournament according to the accumulated stars.
Chef Raymon Kim has 14 victories while Chef Lee Yeon-bok has 13 victories.
These two will be in the master championship.
What do you think? Who do you think will win, Artist Kim Poong?
I think Chef Lee Yeon-bok will.
He was always strong during the final times.
He's strong during the big matches.
- Strangely enough, Chef Raymon Kim is weak during big matches. - He's weak.
What's that fish that dies because it rams itself into a wall?
- Sunfish! - It dies from being shocked by its own farting noise.
The sunfish of the chef world.
- His body even looks like a sunfish. - What are you talking about?
He's big like a sunfish!
Who will receive the honorable golden trophy?
Please look forward to the 2017 championships.
We'll bring out today's fridge owners.
We invited the suitable guests for the 2017 championships.
We made a huge effort to invite the two people who
brought in the biggest viewer ratings this year.
I introduce today's guests to you! Please come out!
The fridge owners for the 2017 championships!
Kim Seung-soo and Lee Tae-gon!
(Welcome!)
These are the two fridge owners who brought in the
biggest viewer ratings this season and this year.
- Viewer rating hunters. - First off, I introduce him to you.
The one who brought in the second highest viewer ratings of 2017.
The one who became the number one son-in-law material after appearing here.
Park Bo Gum of the middle years.
Seung-soo-nardo DiCaprio.
Actor Kim Seung-soo!
- Welcome! - Thank you.
Please say a word of thanks to the viewers.
Thank you. I don't know if that day was rotten or not,
but thank you for watching it and letting me get invited here again.
We gained a lot of benefits from you.
This man is the one who brought in the number one ratings.
- So he's number one. - The viewer ratings were 6.18%!
Yes! 6.18%!
Diabolic man who captured the hearts of both men and women through his fishing skills.
- It's actor Lee Tae-gon. - Lee Tae-gon!
He's number one in terms of viewer ratings!
Please say a word of thanks to the viewers.
Thank you!
(He even expresses his gratitude in manly style!)
- 7-inch. - 7-inch.
We were able to see plenty of fish we've never seen before.
- We really got to see all of that. - I thought it was the fridge of the sea king.
I thought I should show you something special if I come on the show this time.
I need something strong. So I prepared something.
He went dawn fishing again.
(What kind of rare and precious fish will be revealed?)
After the episode aired, the reaction about you was incredible.
Didn't you feel that?
- After that, my fridge was emptied. - Really?
Suddenly, there were many sick people around me.
So they wanted some fish.
I had about 65 fish back then, but now I only have 30 something.
- Because of the rumors. - Yes.
What about you, Seung-soo?
I was shocked.
Even the people who don't usually keep in touch with me
suddenly called me and contacted me on my Instagram-
- I heard your ex-girlfriend contacted you. - What?
- Your ex-girlfriend contacted you. - Seems like you bit your tongue there.
- No, I didn't! - Seems like you bit your tongue.
I'm not bleeding, but I did bite it...
- Gosh, you're very flustered. - His ex contacted
him to ask if they can get back together.
She saw him in a new light.
I told her it's too late.
It's too late.
And what was a hot topic back then was Lee Tae-gon's fish cutting show.
You take the head off first and then the tail.
Now the belly.
Oh, wow. Listen to the sound. The sound of skin ripping apart.
It's clean.
(The red sea bream cutting show that shocked everyone/Shocked)
Chef Yeon-bok's expression.
He was shocked.
The reaction of Kim Seung-soo's episode was hot as well.
- You made the radish shreds last time. - Right.
With your skillful knife skills.
Start!
(Kim Seung-soo VS. Artist Kim Poong)
- Wow! Kim Seung-soo! - No joke!
Wow! Kim Seung-soo!
- You must have seen him make the radish shreds. - I was shocked.
I can't do that.
Regardless of that, who do you think has better knife skills?
I'm not sure about that one.
- You're saying it's yourself, right? - We use different knives.
- The areas we use our knives in our different. - Radish shreds are harder?
I'm saying it isn't easy.
Cutting fish is nothing.
Cutting fish is hard, but so is cutting radish shreds.
I see. It seems like you both have pride about cooking.
So we have especially prepared something today.
A special match for the holidays.
Today's cooking competition between the guests have been prepared!
Radish shreds or fish?
I heard you tried it at home. The rumors are all out.
Well, I should try it at least once.
I needed to see if I could do it in 15 minutes.
- Tae-gon, did you practice as well? - I did.
(Fiery competitiveness)
Since I'm making a fish dish, I had two minutes left.
Wow. He practiced.
It seems like he didn't practice just once. Will you check his left thumb?
- There's a band-aid on it. - Oh, dear! Did you get hurt?
I cut my finger while cutting green onions.
It's your left thumb.
It happened since I was trying to speed up.
But seeing how there's still blood on the band-aid,
it seems like he did it until this morning.
(The red blood is still visible...)
- I got hurt yesterday. - You got hurt yesterday. Wow.
Seeing how you hurt your finger, you must really want to win this.
You spilled blood in order to win.
That's amazing. These two are very competitive,
so let's look forward to their competition.
Did you guys ever appear in the same drama or movie before?
- We did once. - Once.
When? Where?
- In the drama "Gwanggaeto the Great." - I see.
I kill his father in front of him.
Yes.
So we drift apart.
At this rate, you guys are lifelong rivals, even in dramas.
- It's good they met today. - I know.
- He's a rival for killing his father. - I know.
Coincidentally enough, we had a sword fight
back then, and we're having one here as well.
Will there be a proof scene?
(Proof scene)
(The two of them are having a fiery sword battle!)
(In a bit!)
(They meet and fight again in the show's kitchen!)
(This is how you cook...!)
(At that rate, you'll hurt yourself...!)
You will never be able to defeat me!
We had a lot of sword fights.
Probably this competition today has been predicted from then.
These two have another thing in common.
They graduated from the same school and same department.
- Is that right? - What a coincidence.
Physical education department.
- Who's the senior? - I'm six years his senior.
- Six years? - Yes.
We didn't go to school together. He came in after I graduated.
Doesn't the physical education department have military discipline?
Yes, a bit.
He should be glad you weren't there when he came, right?
- He must be very glad. - Right.
We could've really been on bad terms.
I know.
- But there's another interesting fact. - What now?
Both of them were swimming coaches before they debuted as actors.
Seriously? Swimming coaches?
How many meters can you swim?
The same goes for Tae-gon, but I can breaststroke the entire day.
You can breaststroke the entire day.
- We eat kimbap on water. - Right.
I specialized in the butterfly stroke.
Butterfly!
(He responded with a higher level skill!)
- I guess you don't know how to do the butterfly stroke. - You guys are cruel.
- Both of you can do it. - Right.
Do you want to see us literally fight with our knives up there?
The competition is getting hotter!
It's a cooking competition! Brace yourselves!
Yes.
With the two greatest guests of this year,
we're going to wrap up the 2017 year with a final competition.
Based upon the accumulated stars,
Chef Raymon Kim and Chef Lee Yeon-bok will compete for the championship.
Third and fourth place will be determined between
Chef Yoo Hyun-soo and Chef Jung Ho-young.
Artist Kim Poong and Chef Sam Kim will compete for fifth and sixth place.
Right now, we will looked through the fridge of Kim Seung-soo, the middle-aged
Park Bo-gum and Seung-soo-nardo DiCaprio, for the second time.
Are there changes from last time?
- There are many changes. - Really?
- Yes. - Did something happen?
Back then, my mother mainly lived at home, and I was just going back and forth.
Now my mother is somewhere else, and I'm mainly at home.
So it's like I'm on my own.
- You live on your own now. - Right.
- To live on your own is meaningful in many ways. - Right.
- There's a reason why his mother avoided the house. - Exactly. She was uncomfortable.
That's right. She'd be really uncomfortable.
We will look into Kim Seung-soo's new fridge!
(What is sexy cooking man Seung-soo's fridge like?)
We will look into it now! Kim Seung-soo's fridge!
(His fridge is as neat as ever.)
- It's neat and tidy. - It's very empty now.
I can tell he's a single man now.
His fridge is packed. He freezes anything.
That's right. All men think that everything
- is fresh when it's in the freezer. - Yes.
The fridge is empty.
There's only green onion on the first shelf.
- That's it for the first shelf. - I grow green onions.
In a garden?
So do you pluck one out every time you eat it?
When you buy one and plant it, it stays alive for a long time.
- By the root. - You buy it by the root and plant it?
You guys have different styles. The manly man just yanks it up by the roots!
- The sweet guy... - Cuts it all up.
(Polar opposites)
We'll move onto the second shelf.
- You must still eat a lot of pasta lately. - Yes.
There's pasta sauce. Tomato and cheese and cream.
- There are many noodles here. - Wow. There's a lot.
There are regular noodles, spaghetti noodles, and rice noodles,
- These must be rice noodles. - Yes they are.
You must like noodles a lot.
I like them so much that even if I just keep eating
noodles, I can still eat a variety of them in days.
Okay. In the next shelf, I see some side dishes.
Those are from my mother. My mother gave me kimchi, but I made my own kimchi, too.
- You did? - Yes. The cabbage kimchi over there.
- This? - Is this the kimchi you made?
Yes.
- Hold on. - I didn't make a lot.
- Did you do it yourself? - I did.
- Kim Seung-soo's kimchi? - Yes.
- Should we try this? - Yes.
- It smells really nice! - I don't know how it will taste.
Artist Kim Poong must try it.
Chef Sam Kim should also.
He did a fantastic job!
We should taste it.
(Everyone is amazed over his kimchi.)
- It's really good. - Have you ever made kimchi before?
This is my first time.
It's as good as the kimchi sold in markets.
Seriously. It's good.
- What did you think? - You seem slightly surprised.
- Did you like? - I'm growing tense.
You're growing tense.
He's in a sensitive situation.
He wants to give a compliment, but they're rivals, so he's tense.
If go down to the next shelf...
Goodness. Did you get a gift? Is this ginseng?
- Yes, it's fresh ginseng. - Fresh ginseng.
I'm quite old, so someone gifted it to me to take care of my body.
Wow. I envy you.
Middle-aged Park Bo-gum.
There are shrimp powder and anchovy powder here.
- You must have used a lot. - I use them quite a lot.
You cook quite a bit.
I use shrimp powder for fried rice and anchovy powder for bean paste stew.
He cooks a lot.
They usually come quite full.
He keeps tapping his fingers. I think his finger is bleeding even more now.
(Am I shaking...?)
(Anxious eyes and hands at the thought of competing with Seung-soo.)
His left hand keeps trembling.
I see raw oysters here. What do you use them for?
Sometimes, I put them as a topping for rice noodles.
If I just slightly cook them
and eat them with horseradish paste, it's very good.
He's tapping it again.
(He can't hide his anxiousness.)
Excuse me. I think he needs more band-aids.
I think you need to give him more band-aids!
I think you need to give him more.
It's not easy right now.
- Look at the ingredients. He has these. - Flying fish roe.
I put it in rolled rice. It's called temakijeusi in Japanese.
That's right! The food that comes out in Japanese restaurants!
It's great if you eat them with radish sprouts.
(Sexy cooking man Seung-soo can do anything.)
(Where am I? Who am I?)
He met the wrong rival.
He's anguished after this came out.
Do you make that yourself?
That's as easy as making kimbap.
"It's as easy as making kimbap."
The atmosphere is slightly getting fired up.
- I think this is bacon. - Do you put this in noodles?
Yes.
This time... -There are many vegetables here.
Red onion, paprika, and asparagus.
- It's good to wrap that with bacon, too. - Do you make that as well?
- Yes. I wrap bacon with asparagus. - Hold on.
(Shocked)
(He wraps asparagus in bacon.)
You just slightly fry it on the pan.
I see. Look. He even has radish sprouts.
Most homes don't have radish sprouts.
Do you have a favorite vegetable?
Ever since a while ago, I started to like eggplant.
Eggplant! There's eggplant here!
What do you do with eggplants?
I once made sweet and sour pork with eggplants.
- Sweet and sour pork with eggplants. - Right.
I slice the eggplants, salt them, and take the water out of them.
- There can't be water in them. - Then I roll them up with meat.
- The details. - With toothpick and eggs.
He's doing it properly.
This is a technique.
Do you know how to cook anything with eggplants?
It's my first time seeing an eggplant in three years.
He doesn't use eggplants.
- People don't usually use them. - He doesn't like them.
Let's head over to the freezer now.
They say your freezer gets bigger once you start living alone.
Hold on. Lee Tae-gon is here, so it's a bit embarrassing to bring this out.
- To Lee Tae-gon, this is anchovy. - Exactly.
We need to bump up his energy once.
This is Kim Seung-soo's seafood.
The size is rather small.
It's like an anchovy to Tae-gon.
It's an anchovy. Just something to dip in red pepper paste.
- This is a snack for beer. - Right. Bite-sized.
This is squid.
- Last time you had cuttlefish. - Bigfin reef squid.
(It's XXS size compared to the bigfin reef squid.)
It's very small. It's being compared because Tae-gon is here.
If you go down to the next shelf, there's plenty of meat.
Why is there so much though?
I purchase them through the internet.
- No wonder there's a lot. - If you buy a specific amount, it's free shipping.
- That's right. - So I buy a bunch at once.
I thought he was dating a butcher's daughter.
- You thought they were gifts. - Because there was so much.
The same goes for chicken. How many are there?
- Six. - Six.
I had to order 12 of them for free shipping, so I did,
but I ate 6 of them, and those are the 6 that are left.
- You already ate 6? - Yes.
You already 6 of them?
My dog eats it with me.
So I usually boil them beforehand. My dog and I eat it.
- For your dog. - Yes.
We don't know who he's talking about.
We don't. Maybe that person likes chicken.
My dog likes it.
There's a bunch of ice cream as well. That, too?
It's free shipping if you buy 40 of them.
To eat them alone...?
What do you think, Tae-gon?
- He's hiding something. - Isn't he?
(Only Seung-soo knows the truth...)
All right! With the ingredients in this fridge, we will now begin the
competition for 5th and 6th places between Artist Kim Poong and Chef Sam Kim!
We will start the first competition with Kim Seung-soo's fridge.
This is the 5th and 6th place competition between Chef Sam Kim with 10
- victories and Artist Kim Poong with 9 victories. - You guys are amazing!
(Round of applause without knowing why)
- What's amazing? - It's not easy to be 5th and 6th place!
They don't look that happy though.
- I'm kind of sick. - Are you?
Or is it because your opponent is Artist Kim Poong?
It could be kind of humiliating.
Like I told Kim Poong earlier, a lion does its best even when catching a tiger.
- Okay. - I'll do my best.
- You gave me advice? - Yes.
That I'm the tiger?
They both have an amazing record.
They do?
With 15 losses, Artist Kim Poong is the number one loser.
Oh, the number one loser of this season.
- Number1 loser. - 15 losses.
Sam Kim is at number two with 14 losses.
This is the final competition between first and second place!
The one who loses here will take 1st place as a loser.
That's right.
I'd like to make an offer. There's gold trophy here, too, but...
I'll give the fresh ginseng set you guy saw earlier.
- Fresh ginseng! - That valuable thing?
Food is the best!
- I'd like to use this opportunity to use it as a reward. - Thank you.
Then the story changes!
To be honest, this trophy is nothing but plastic!
Food is the best!
There needs to be a prize to become motivated.
Chef Sam Kim is suddenly checking the ingredients!
(Burning desire)
Great. Who will take 5th place and take home the fresh ginseng?
(Artist Kim Poong's Ingredients: cabbage, instant
beef bone soup, oyster sauce, seaweed, pasta noodles, etc.)
(Chef Sam Kim's Ingredients: pork belly, bacon, paprika, eggplant, tomato sauce, etc.)
The name of my dish is "It's Pasta."
"It's Pasta."
- Is it Jeolla-do food? - Are you making pasta?
Chef Sam Kim majored in pasta, right?
The only way to get him is by making pasta.
(Strong provocation that shakes Chef Sam Kim's glass mental)
My pasta won't be normal either.
Perilla will go in there.
- In your pasta? - Is it perilla pasta?
It's perilla pasta. The main dish is actually steamed cabbage.
- Steamed cabbage? - Steamed cabbage.
It's kind of a mix between Korean and Italian steamed cabbage.
What have you prepared, Chef Sam Kim?
Today I prepared "Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio."
"Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio."
- You're cooking pasta as well. - Right.
Pasta versus pasta. What kind of pasta are you making?
It's tomato pasta using bacon.
I'm also going to make a simple eggplant dish.
Eggplant dish.
It's kind of like an eggplant dish.
- Sounds delicious. - We look forward to it.
We shall start the competition for the 5th and 6th places now.
He was in a slump in 2017, and he'll serve Artist
Kim Poong as an older brother if he loses.
Chef Sam Kim, who will try his hardest with his pride as a chef, versus...
Artist Kim Poong who is determined to succeed with a hit dish today.
Who will take the 5th place of "Take Good Care of the Fridge?"
We'll begin the competition now!
This is the last competition of the year.
- Artist Kim Poong has nothing to lose. - He has no regrets.
That's right. What are you doing right now, Artist Kim Poong?
I'm leaving the cabbage in salty water right now.
Why only the front though?
He's cooking the hardest part first.
That way, the speed of cooking will be even.
Artist Kim Poong is using instant beef bone soup.
- He's taking some out though. Why? - I put too much in.
You did?
(He just failed to control the amount.)
I thought he was trying to use that for another dish. He simply used too much though.
(Put the instant beef bone soup with crushed garlic in a pot and boil it.)
(Chef Sam Kim prepares the vegetables first.)
He's putting a lot of pork belly and bacon in there.
He needs to win first. There's a big difference between 5th and 6th place.
(Cut paprika, egg plant, and king oyster mushrooms, fry them
in a pan of oil, and add salt and pepper to season them.)
Chef Sam Kim is a typical chef. He's a champion style.
(He puts the entire cabbage into the boiling water.)
He's using ox head slices.
He's using ox head slices!
He's cutting it up however he likes though. They look kind of like acorn jelly.
I think this year's masterpiece is Artist Kim Poong's dish.
- Which one? - His caterpillar dish.
Caterpillar dish. That was shocking.
He made a dish to go down in history.
He put ox head slices in there. He's probably
going to loosen them up to use them as sauce.
If they become sticky, he can use them as sauce.
He's going to use that as pasta sauce?
But hat about the taste?
- I don't think anyone can predict the taste. - It's strange.
(How will the tomato sauce with the slices of boiled meat taste like?)
He's making it spicy with chili powder.
Kim Seung-soo likes spicy things.
- He put soy sauce in there, too? - Yes, he did.
- I can't imagine the taste. - It's Kim Poong style.
I don't think it's traditional Italian pasta.
It looks like Korean sausage soup.
- It does! - Since he didn't put pasta in it yet.
(Very worried)
(Chef Sam Kim started to cut the eggplant.)
He's frying the eggplants.
He's frying the eggplants. You're not going to put oil on the pan?
It was too hot, so I took it out.
Just in case it might burn.
(Fry the sliced bacon and then boil it with instant beef bone soup.)
He's using instant beef bone soup as well.
- Chef Sam Kim, too! - Then we're the same!
There's no difference.
"There's no difference between that chef and me."
Chef Sam Kim is in a hurry as well.
Adding bacon is delicious.
- You're using sauce from the market, right? - Yes, I am.
There's nothing to lose on the last round.
9 minutes and 18 seconds...
Hold on. He put the whole cabbage in the sauce.
If the outside is stiff, the inside is raw.
Is that it? Chef Lee Yeon-bok predicts the cabbage will be raw.
Water won't easily go into it.
I think his dish is close to Korean food.
- Is that oyster sauce? - Yes, it is.
He's just putting in all the good ingredients in there.
Why are you putting oyster sauce when you're boiling noodles?
Then the pasta noodles will be seasoned.
The sauce will stick to them well then.
So there was a good reason for that.
Flying fish roe is going in there.
(He takes the oil out of the fried eggplant.)
Looks good.
He put that in mayonnaise.
He even put cheese in there.
Now he's putting that in the oven.
- Aren't you going to boil noodles? - I am.
- Aren't you going to boil the water? - It's spaghetti, so it will cook quickly.
He just needs to cook it a bit.
About Hal the time is gone now.
- Looks good. - Artist Kim Poong's dish looks like ripened kimchi stew.
- I made it Korean style. It seemed like Seung-soo like that last time. - I did.
(Put salt in the boiling water and boil the pasta.)
It's within five minutes now. Jung-hwa, you're in the scene, right?
I'm curious about what kind of taste the ox head slices made.
- He put that in beef bone soup. - I'll have a taste.
Yes. I'm sure it will be delicious.
Is it good?
Do you think he'll take 5th place?
- I've never tasted this before. - It's not good?
It's kind of greasy because of the ox head slice.
The cabbage will get rid of that.
- It's the gelatin. - The stickiness of the gelatin makes it greasy.
How about you check Chef Sam Kim's? The color looks similar as Artist Kim Poong's.
How is his pasta sauce? Do you think he'll take 5th place?
You should've done this before!
You would've at least been in the competition for 3rd or 4th place!
(It's the cooking class of a champion!)
- Chef Sam Kim is showing off his skills. - There's no doubt about it.
(He starts to make the vinegar and soy sauce!)
(Mix vinegar, soy sauce, cooking wine, water, and sugar.)
(Put the vinegar and soy sauce on a dish with the diced red onions.)
(Artist Kim Poong officially starts to make the pasta.)
What's this? Perilla!
- Oh, perilla. - He's adding perilla in there.
So you're putting it here and not there.
You put it in the noodles so that it can smell like perilla.
That's smart.
(Chef Sam Kim takes out the pasta noodles.)
Chef Sam Kim also boiled the noodles and put them in there.
The noodles are a bit hard.
They're not fully cooked.
They're not cooked yet?
If he does that in one minute and puts it on top, it will probably cook then.
One minute left!
- If you eat this, your stomach will be scratched up! - It's that bad?
About 50 seconds left!
(Cut the dried seaweed into thin slices.)
The noodles here are definitely cooked.
- Cabbage, cabbage, cabbage. - How is the cabbage?
(Artist Kim Poong puts the cabbage and pasta in different dishes.)
- You're putting the noodles on a different plate? - Yes.
Oh, he's putting the noodles separately.
It could be greasier.
- Is it sesame seed oil? - Perilla oil.
He put perilla oil in there!
There are 20 seconds left!
(Chef Sam Kim is in a rush now.)
(For the remaining time, he cooks the noodles that weren't fully cooked.)
You need to put it in a plate! You have 10 seconds left!
- The noodles aren't cooked yet. - Hopefully they're cooked!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
It's over! Please wrap up! Ring the bell!
Artist Kim Poong ended first!
You lost the timing to cook the noodles.
It's good to make the noodles first, but Chef Sam Kim did it late.
Do you want us to talk a bit more?
- Should we buy you some time? - That'd be great.
Hurry up and try it.
(Perilla pasta and steamed cabbage made from slices of boiled meat)
(Artist Kim Poong's "It's Pasta")
- How do you eat this? - Just cut it and eat it.
- Chef Lee Yeon-bok said it might not be cooked inside. - It's cooked well.
It's cooked well.
- It is? - Yes, it's seasoned well, too.
- It is? - Yes.
That's good.
I'm really curious about this.
If you steam cabbage like that, it's savory and delicious.
Jung-hwan didn't try the cabbage, but when you steam it like that, it's very savory.
His expression is a bit...
The cabbage is wonderful.
It's perfect for my taste.
It's good with the soju that I always talk about.
I liked boiled meat, so a very unique taste is created from the boiled meat in here.
It's the first time I taste anything like this in my life.
But the scent of the after taste isn't from our country.
- Is there a unique smell? - Yes.
Is it because of the ox head slices?
It's from those and the tomato sauce.
The odd scent is very exotic.
The more you eat it, the stronger the scent is.
- Ox head slices tend to do that. - Right.
Now this is the main dish. "It's Pasta." He put dried seaweed on there, too.
The condition of the noodles, perilla powder, and perilla oil.
It's fine, but...
this is something you can eat at perilla chopped noodles restaurant.
The more you chew on the noodles, the more you taste something.
It's like chopped noodles from a famous restaurant though.
- The seasoning is good, right? - Yes.
When you chew it, the scent of the perilla powder goes
into your throat, and the leftover noodles taste great.
It's because he boiled it in the soup earlier.
So even if there are just the noodles, it's still great.
(Fried eggplant with crab meat and bacon tomato pasta)
(Chef Sam Kim's "Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio")
"Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio."
- Please mix the noodles well. - The noodles on the bottom are probably softer.
Seems like they want you to eat the noodles on the bottom.
The chefs quickly know, as expected.
(How are Chef Sam Kim's noodles?)
He miscalculated the time.
Many people predict that the noodles aren't cooked well.
How is it?
Firm pasta is called Al Dante, right?
I think it could be argued that this is Al Dante.
It's Al Dante.
(Anyone could tell it's not Al Dante...?)
But the sauce and taste are excellent.
It's excellent pasta.
Chef Sam Kim's trademark.
- Now it's time for the eggplant. - I'm curious about this one.
Kim Seung-soo is into eggplant dish these days.
(He puts onion on top)
The eggplant is fried.
(Thumbs up./Now he's smiling)
He really likes this one.
It's really good. It's very good.
Wow. This is...
Eggplants are originally soft.
I think this is a dish I really need to learn.
This is the best food I've ever eaten lately.
This was a pasta competition, but rather than the pasta...
(The side menu received favorable reviews!)
You must choose now. Choose the 5th and 6th places.
Number one is Artist Kim Poong's "It's Pasta."
Number two is Chef Sam Kim's "Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio."
- Artist Kim Poong is number one? - He's number one. Chef Sam Kim is number two.
I wonder why he asked about Artist Kim Poong again.
- I pressed it. - You did? He pressed it!
All right. Who will be the winner?
The competition of 5th and 6th places with the fresh ginseng at stake.
Will Chef Sam Kim take 5th place and keep his pride?
Or will Artist Kim Poong take 5th place and continue
his storm from the beginning of the season?
Let's check Kim Seung-soo's decision! Who is 5th place?
Kim Seung-soo?
Chef Sam Kim is 5th place!
"Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio" got chosen.
Chef Sam Kim's pasta was great,
but with just the eggplants, it made me think he's a great chef.
That's how much of a charming eggplant dish it is.
That's why I voted for him.
Kim Seung-soo will give the fresh ginseng to 5th place Chef Sam Kim.
Congratulations! Sam Kim has taken 5th place of this season!
(Chef Sam Kim: 5th place/Artist Kim Poong: 6th place)
(Chef Sam Kim's "Seung-soo-Nardo Pasta-Rio")
The special match you have all been waiting for is coming up next.
It's between the owners of today's fridges.
Lee Tae-gon and Kim Seung-soo will compete against each other!
You guys look cool!
They're standing up there as we're wrapping up the year.
Could chef uniforms be so handsome?
- I think they'll be chefs in their next drama. - Oh, for their roles.
- So that's how nice it looks. - We suddenly look so small.
Chef Raymon, do they look good in the chef uniforms?
Even if they sell ramen without the powder in it, it will sell.
I was looking at them but I turned my head to look at Chef Raymon and...
- You saw a great sunfish! - In my eyes, you look like a squid.
Sunfish, squid, and blow-fish.
How do you feel right now?
When I stood here with this outfit on,
I wondered, "Why did I agree to this?"
I just hope I'll make food that you won't spit out.
My head is filled with all kinds of things.
"What do I do first? What if it's not delicious?"
Now I think I know how the chefs feel.
His forehead is already breaking into a sweat.
Sweat is starting to gather on Lee Tae-gon's forehead! He's nervous!
(Lee Tae-gon's Ingredients: red sea bream,
radish, pink salt, water parsley, pepper, etc.)
(Kim Seung-soo's Ingredients: eggplant, ground pork,
ground garlic, paprika, radish water kimchi, etc.)
What dish did you prepare, Tae-gon?
"Lee Tae-gon Steak"
- He's very stiff! - He's a robot.
What is this that he's getting so nervous about it?
His recipe is floating all over his mind.
This is very nerve-racking.
I will make steak with the yellowtail I caught.
Yellowtail steak!
He's going to make steak out of that?
I'm also going to make fresh soup with red sea bream.
Japanese Amberjack.
- But his fridge hasn't been revealed yet. - Right.
- Can we just check the yellowtail and red sea bream?- Sure.
- Okay, please show us. - They're not very big.
It didn't fit in my fridge, so I cut it in half.
- It's huge! - It's huge.
The red sea-bream is the perfect size.
- You caught it yourself, right? - Yup.
There are better fish for next week in there, right?
There are different kinds in there. I prepared something for the chefs.
They're all natural.
Can you make two dishes in 15 minutes?
When I was practiced, I had two minutes left.
I don't know about today.
We're curious what Seung-soo will make following his red sea bream and yellowtail.
"Fish Eggplants That Will Make Seung-soo Into The Best."
- So it's an eggplant dish. - Right.
I'm going to put fried egg on top of rice.
Then I'm going to put eggplant sauce on the yolk.
I'll also add my mother's radish water kimchi
that will complete this into a dish and meal.
- So it will be one meal? - Yes.
- He prepared a lot. - He did. You must win
against him with red sea bream and yellowtail.
I will properly show you how fish eggplants and rice delicious are.
You're saying he only has fancy ingredients?
Since he's winning me in terms of ingredients, I will do my best in cooking.
They are the two fridge owners who ranked first and second in viewer ratings.
King of Melo who captures women's hearts! Seung-soo-nardo DiCaprio!
He will become the king of cooking with his
brilliant knife skills! Sweet guy Kim Seung-soo!
Manly man who is good at cooking!
He will catch victory just like he catches fish! Manly man Lee Tae-gon!
Who will become the true sexy cooking man?
We will now begin the special match!
The 15-minute countdown has begun.
Be calm. Don't get hurt.
Cooking is important, but you can't be in a rush.
- Their expressions are so fierce! - Just do what you've always done.
- Knife. Knife. - Is that your knife?
Lee Tae-gon is cleaning the red sea bream first.
Based on the ingredients, we can't help but look his way.
The knife skills of a manly man!
In order to make fish soup, he's putting the red sea bream into the water.
He's really relaxed.
He seems like a chef who has 20 years of experience!
I think his body and mind are doing completely different things right now.
Based on my experience...
We tried it once, too, didn't we?
Kim Seung-soo doesn't hear anything right now.
He doesn't even know what Tae-gon is doing. He has to watch the show to know.
- He's just all alone in a room. - Right.
In his head, all he can think about is what he has to do next.
He's frying the eggplants.
Kim Seung-soo is cutting!
Great knife skills! Kim Seung-soo, wow! He's chopping away at that green onion!
He's very good at cutting.
Lee Tae-gon is cutting it sparsely without mercy.
- Like a manly man. - Chop chop.
Their knife skills are the complete opposite.
(Cut the onion and white radish in big slices and add them into the clear soup.)
- What are you doing now? - I'm making green onion oil.
- Green onion oil? Is that what you're making? - Yes.
That's unique. You usually do fish egg plant with chili oi.
I know. Shall I help you with the chili oil?
(He throws all distractions away...)
(He only focuses on the green onion oil.)
He cuts it thickly. He doesn't cut it thinly.
Manly man Lee Tae-gon.
He just tosses the knife aside.
- Are those going into the soup? - Yes, they are.
All right. Got it. You're putting them in the soup.
(An accent like he's putting an order into the kitchen)
He's putting red pepper in there as well.
Lee Tae-gon is really relaxed.
What is he grinding?
(Personal equipment #2: Himalaya pink salt!)
Is that salt?
- He's grinding the salt. Is that a special salt? - It's Himalaya pink salt.
- It makes a savory taste. - Really?
- Is it different from other salt? - It is.
Wow. I see the tail of the red sea bream.
Tae-gon tasted the soup! Shall we see his expression?
- Is it okay? - It must still be bland.
- I need more time. - You do?
- He's evaluating himself. - What's that?
- Garlic salt. - Garlic salt?
He needs to quickly put the lid on.
There's no change in his expression.
He's very chic. He's very cool. He even has one hand behind his back.
Kind of like a hotel chef.
I think Tae-gon is being too slow.
Will the taste come out in 15 minutes?
There's a lot of water as well.
(Kim Seung-soo is frying pork in green onion oil.)
(Once again, he pushes aside all distractions...)
(He fries the grounded meat, chungyang hot pepper,
grounded garlic, and grounded ginger in green onion oil.)
(Oligosaccharide, soy sauce, bean paste)
Kim Seung-soo is very quiet. He's making the sauce.
- What's in there? - Oligosaccharide, soy sauce, bean paste, and chili powder.
Got it.
- Your throat must have clogged up because you didn't talk much. - Yes.
- You should communicate with us. - Okay.
(Put oligosaccharide, soy sauce, bean paste, water, and
chili powder in fried pork and make the fish sauce.)
He put eggplants in there!
- Oh, right there? - That's how he's going to make it?
They're still relaxed. Half the time has gone already.
Kim Seung-soo is slightly flustered. The end of his lips are shaking!
(Cut mushrooms, bell pepper, and paprika and add them in the eggplant.)
Kim Seung-soo is trying to win with vegetables.
Lee Tae-gon is trying to win with glamorous fish.
Now the yellowtail is coming.
- How will he cut that? - He'll cut it into a round shape.
(He's going to marinate the fish in olive oil.)
Why isn't the oil coming out?
You have to press the handle.
(What's this?)
What's that?
Pepper.
(Personal equipment #3: automatic pepper grinder!)
- Is that yours? - Yes.
- We don't have that. - We have to do this.
Buy that for us, too.
(Marinate the yellowtail in olive oil, pepper, and lemon juice.(
(Fry the vegetables in a pan of oil and season with salt and pepper.)
What is he frying? Green onion?
No. Endive, mini cabbage, and radish.
He's using that to garnish the steak.
He just slightly fried it.
(Fry the yellowfish marinated in oil on a grill pan.)
Is there a spatula?
- Up there. - What are you looking for?
He doesn't run at all.
He's still relaxed.
Sung-joo, go out there and tell us what's going on.
Should I go out there? I'll taste the soup first.
Who is the sexy cooking man?
All right. There are four minutes left. I will taste Lee Tae-gon's clear soup.
Does it taste like manly man?
I think it needs five more minutes.
- Really? - It's not ready yet. It's not deep.
- Oh, no. - There's not enough time for it.
- Isn't it better to put the lid on? - Isn't it?
- Tae-gon, isn't it better to put the lid on? - Please put it on.
I do it...?
I almost did it.
I was kind of scared.
There are eggplants here. Let me taste the soup here.
The taste of Kim Seung-soo's sauce!
How is it?
Not bad! With just one minute, it will taste better!
You can tell if it needs one minute or five minutes just by tasting it?
(Fact violence)
You said this needs one minute and that needs five minutes.
I mean this can get done in time but that can't.
You became arrogant after making that sweet and sour pork!
(Kim Seung-soo shoots the instant rice in the microwave)
He broke an egg! Where are you going to put this?
- I'm going to put it on top of the rice. - On top of the rice.
Kim Seung-soo is frying the egg in an amusing way.
He's making fried eggs in a unique way.
- The fried eggs are pretty. - They are.
(He opens the instant rice and puts it on a plate.)
(After putting the rice on a plate, put fried eggs on top of it.)
(He slices his mother's radish water kimchi in good slices.)
(Seems like the taste he wanted isn't out yet)
(This time, he adds a big spoon of soy sauce.)
Tae-gon looks relaxed, but he's starting to break into a sweat.
(Did the soy sauce save the taste?)
(Salt)
Lee Tae-gon first added rock salt in there, then garlic salt, and now just plain salt!
- Shouldn't you grind more salt? - There's too much water.
There's too much water?
Are you saying salt is all the same?
Should I take some water out for you?
Yes, wouldn't it be better to take out the water?
Chef Oh Se-deuk suggested he takes out some of the water.
He does it without a Chang of expression. Goodness!
(This is how a man controls water!)
He didn't even do it with a ladle. He just did it with another pot.
He just dumped out the water.
There is barely a minute left! There's not much time!
(He puts the yellowtail steak on a plate.)
(Balsamic sauce)
(He uses seasoning soy sauce, vinegar, and lemon juice to make sauce.)
(He puts the sauce on the plate.)
(If he puts wasabi on the plate, the yellowtail steak is complete.)
Kim Seung-soo is doing the plating.
He's focusing! He's determined to win! He's determined to overcome Tae-gon!
- He has to put it in the bowl now! - Please do your best until the end!
The soup must have its flavor now! He tries it!
- MSG! MSG! MSG! - It must not be it!
He needs a special action for this!
He's suddenly adding water parsley in there!
A deep taste must be made, but there are only 15 seconds left!
Lee Tae-gon! Lee Tae-gon! Six seconds left!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
It's over now!
Kim Seung-soo is done, and we'll give Tae-gon some time to put the soup in his bowl.
- Give me some time to put this in a bowl. - Sure.
He doesn't run though. He doesn't get flustered.
- Lee Tae-gon. - Yes?
You said you had two minutes left when you did it at home!
It doesn't work because Sung-joo keeps talking.
This is a special match, so it's fine.
("Lee Tae-gon Steak" is complete.)
(Sweet guy vs. manly man's cooking is ready)
It's a cuisine.
As soon as the competition started, they talked less.
However, Lee Tae-gon kept his manly dignity intact until the end.
He was definitely flustered, but he tried not to be. "Please put the lid on."
- Tae-gon, isn't it better to put the lid on? - Please put it on.
I do it...?
(Embarrassed)
The amazing thing was when he had to take the extra water out.
I never saw anyone take water out with a pot before.
- How was it? - This is no joke.
- It was chaotic. - But you didn't seem to be in chaos.
- What are you most regretful about? - The soup.
The soup?
- It should've boiled well for 5 minutes. - The steak is good, right?
- The steak came out fine. - All right.
What about you, Seung-soo?
The thing I regretted was that I couldn't cut the
eggplants into the deep diamond shapes I wanted.
- You're supposed to cut it deeply for the sauce to go in. - Right.
I thought the eggplant would break if I cut it
too deeply, so I was shaking as I did that.
Will the eggplant be able to triumph over the yellowtail?
Or will the yellowtail defend itself?
That's right.
(A meal of fish eggplant with egg, rice, and radish water kimchi)
("Fish Eggplants That Will Make Seung-soo Into The Best")
Let's try Kim Seung-soo's "Fish Eggplants That
Will Make Seung-soo Into The Best" first.
It'd be good if you mix rice into this sauce.
It's good if you eat it with the egg yolk.
- Put the sauce on top of the egg yolk. - So he knows how to make something like this.
Rather than fish sauce, this is more like mapa sauce.
Right?
I usually add chili bean sauce in there.
Right.
Many people don't have chili bean sauce though, so I
used bean paste, vinegar, and chili powder instead.
It would've tasted completely different with chili bean sauce.
Regardless, it's delicious.
The sauce itself is great. The eggplant as well, but the texture is a bit regretful.
If you fry the eggplants, they will suck up the sauce, so it will taste better.
That was a bit regretful.
I think it would've been really incredible if the eggplants had been fried.
From the perspective of the one who did it before.
However, if you think about making this at home, it's really hard to clean up the oil.
So they will become softer if you boil the soup with plenty of time.
Because you will have more time at home.
(Clear red sea bream soup and yellowtail steak from fish he caught himself)
("Lee Tae-gon's Steak")
This time, we'll try Lee Tae-gon's "Lee Tae-gon Steak."
(Nervous)
The taste of the yellowtail is amazing.
Let's try the garnish. My chopsticks won't even go in it.
It's totally raw.
- Did you fry this? - Yes.
It's nearly raw though.
I taste a vegetable garden.
I did it based on my taste.
I just made it crunchy.
I want to try the soup.
Before you try that, I brought alcohol to drink with it.
You even brought alcohol to go with it. Wow.
- Fantastic. - Alcohol with gold in it!
(Gold powder at the bottom of the glass)
Doesn't this show forbid alcohol?
The story changes with this.
We'll taste the soup first and then drink it with the alcohol. Right?
Try it together.
We should check the soup first, right?
- Where's the soy sauce? - Here.
Are you guys recreating the taste?
You should taste it as how it is first.
The soy sauce came with it though.
- We can eat everything that is on the table together. - Exactly.
(Pass the soy sauce)
With the soy sauce...
Oh, you're right!
It's good, huh?
- You should've added soy sauce in there! - But...
I don't eat salty food though.
There's vinegar in the soy sauce. That's what is saving the soup.
- Vinegar in the clear soup. - That makes the taste way better.
(I didn't put vinegar in it...)
With a little more time, the soup would've been more amazing.
I think it was a three-minute difference.
With three minutes, it would've been something amazing.
It's different when you eat it after you see the person making the food.
Because of his many style, the dish tastes rough but savory. I think it was nice.
Feels like we're eating this on a ship rather than in a restaurant.
I really liked the vegetables. He only fried them slightly.
I liked how he only fried it slightly and not a lot.
Now it's time for us to cast your votes.
You must choose between one of them.
Is there any last appeals you want to make?
(Interested)
I will never carelessly criticize food anywhere.
That's the answer!
(Time to choose)
We guarantee your votes will be a secret. They will not be revealed.
Please cover your controls. We will not reveal them.
This is a secret vote.
Number one is Lee Tae-gon. Number two is Kim Seung-soo.
Please choose and press the button!
Someone's cooking life is at stake here!
Is this how important this competition is?
(Big match!)
- If you lose here, you can't brag that you know how to cook. - You can't.
- You may not be labeled as a sexy cooking man. - Of course. The results are out.
- Already? - They're out.
The result is...
7:3.
Who took seven votes and who took the other three?
Who is the winner who took seven votes?
Kim Tae-gon versus Kim Seung-soo. Kim Seung-soo versus Lee Tae-gon.
Who is the winner? Please show us! Who won?
(Lee Tae-gon's "Lee Tae-gon Steak" won!)
Lee Tae-gon!
Lee Tae-gon has won!
The alcohol won.
Do you like alcohol that much?
Here! We got the whole bottle!
Wow. 7:3. Lee Tae-gon received 4 more votes.
With that, he became the winner.
Chef Lee Yeon-bok, why did you choose him?
To be honest, his fish won.
His fish was fresh and delicious.
The fish was very tender.
Okay, Yeon-bok.
You said you'd keep it a secret!
Why'd you confess? He just asked why'd you choose him?
That's right. I said nothing!
Goodness.
How do you feel?
To be honest, I kept blaming myself.
"Why didn't I add the vinegar?"
I think the chefs just saw my possibility and went easy on me.
All right. You're modest.
It's unfortunate, Seung-soo.
Eventually, you couldn't overcome the yellowtail.
It's not easy to make clear fish soup.
It was a difficult task, but he did it exceptionally well.
And I think it's fortunate that I'm working hard on my acting.
That I'm not a chef.
- It was a good experience. - Really?
Chef Lee Yeon-bok will put a star on Lee Tae-gon!
It's the first star given to a celebrity!
(Lee Tae-gon's "Lee Tae-gon Steak")
Who will be the one to receive the honorable gold trophy?
For the championship competition...
I went to the southern sea and caught 12 species.
(Lee Tae-gon's deep-freezer is revealed once more!)
(Is the best species the natural red sea bream?)
(Natural tuna?)
(Natural mussel?)
I have something better than a red sea bream.
(The best and final boss appears!)
We will reveal the fish on the top shelf!
(What is the fish that Lee Tae-gon revealed?)
We will start the competition for 3rd and 4th places.
We will start the competition for the championship!
(Full of anticipation!)
This will choose the season's winner. Who will become the season's winner?
(The last trophy competition for the season!)
I've never seen anyone do that before.
(The final boss seafood dish is complete!)
I've overwhelmed because I'm so touched.
(How does the dish that presented him with touched emotions taste Ike?)
- This is driving me crazy. - This is driving him crazy!
("Take Good Care of the Fridge"/9:30 p.m.)
- I really don't want to give this to anyone. - You should stop eating.
