(Two ambitious men on Chef and My Fridge)
(Jo Woo Jong and Jang Sung Kyu)
(He said he'll be a director general,)
(but suddenly announced to become a freelancer.)
(You're struggling.)
(I know.)
(Is he struggling because of Jang Sung Kyu?)
(I feel like he's not doing well since then.)
(Here is Woo Jong's responsive diss rap.)
(It's cold outside JTBC)
Stay put
I prepared one just in case.
(If you're not confident, give up the freelancer and join)
(JTBC as my junior)
(That is amazing.)
(What's wrong with anchors?)
(It's not over yet.)
(The 5-minute cook-off broadcasting challenge)
(The first runner, Jang Sung Kyu)
What are you pouring now?
(It's water.)
(It's water!)
(Their noisy cook-off broadcasting challenge)
(Thinking)
(I'm going freelance!)
(Who's going to be the winner of cook-off broadcasting challenge?)
We have two glib and skillful men...
here with us today.
Woo Jong. Were you able to pass the anchor exam...
with your move?
I was desperate at the time.
It was my third try.
You tried many times.
I answered all the questions in the last interview,
but I couldn't possibly leave the room.
I said, "It's too early to leave now. Can I show you one more thing?"
He said what, and I mimicked Park Shin Yang.
It was when "Lovers in Paris" was very popular.
(He copied the famous line in "Lovers in Paris".)
Lately, I'm in a relationship.
I feel bad to ask you...
to make me pass the exam.
Baby boss.
I'll buy you ice cream. Let's have fun together, baby.
- "Baby boss." - "Baby boss."
(His spirit out from desperation)
I asked him later,
and he said my spirit gave me a plus point.
- It had the impact. - He said he needed it.
I see.
Also, there's an actor named Yoon Joo Sang.
Yoon Joo Sang?
He's a swooning expert actor.
- Swooning. - The swooning man.
In front of a son who wants to marry the girl you oppose.
No.
I'm not allowing this marriage until the day I die.
No.
(Carbon copy)
His expression looks similar too.
- Yes. - Swooning.
- It's hilarious. - He's so funny.
- Sung Kyu. - He's nervous.
He's getting nervous.
- You need... - You need to show something.
something to hit him back.
- He probably does. - Actually...
- I'll try singing. - Singing?
There's a song, "Boom Boom Boom" by Kim Jung Min.
- I know. - You need a husky voice for that.
Here we go.
(Boom boom boom)
(Oh, bam bam bam)
(Everyone's gone blind)
(They all want to go back)
(Everything)
(That's crazy.)
(What should I do now)
- That was great. - I agree.
- That was great. It was funny. - He tries hard.
- You do have something. - That was awesome.
- Do you have anything else? - Show all your moves.
I thought this could be a title song of Chef and My Fridge.
There's a sing, Lee Jin Ah.
I know.
- Her song is "Yum Yum Yum". - Right.
(This is the original song.)
(Yum yum yum)
(I'm going to eat all your memories)
(They're about to faint from laughing.)
(I'm Maestro in the world of mimicry.)
(Yum yum yum)
Meow.
- That was good. - That was good too.
That was awesome.
Am I tactless to do one more?
- No. - No.
- It's good. - Who this time?
- It's the hottest trend. - Who?
- iKON. - iKON.
- "Love Scenario". - We were in love
- It's not easy. iKON is not easy. - I made...
Yang Hee Eun version of the song.
Yang Hee Eun version of iKON's "Love Scenario"?
Let me try.
(Focusing)
(We were in love)
(We met)
(And became a memory that can’t be erased)
(A commendable melodrama)
(A pretty good ending)
(Zero percent sync)
(Bursting into laughter)
- That was pretty unique. - He makes us laugh pretty fast.
He must be gifted.
It's not that his voice sounds alike,
- but his face looks hilarious. - I think...
- he imitates... - His facial expression is good.
the face I can imagine.
As far as I know,
as someone who has worked with Mr. Sohn,
he doesn't like silly people.
- I see. - Did Mr. Sohn give you any advice?
He doesn't say anything,
but I can feel that he loves me.
- Really? - Yes.
If me acting silly really bothered him,
he would've told me to stop.
But I never got any calls.
I wanted to try being silly before it's too late,
so I met him in person,
and said it's the best to alight from the news...
to avoid confusing the viewers.
Without any hesitation,
he said, "If that's what you want, go ahead."
So I alighted from the news.
He didn't stop you?
No.
(Never.)
(Laughing)
Were you ever called?
He said this once.
"Don't talk about me on air."
But you just did.
You said so much about him just now.
What does Sohn Suk Hee mean to you?
He's my JTBC junior.
What?
He's your junior?
I joined the company before he did.
Right. That's true.
(That's kind of true.)
- You just speak without thinking. - That surprised me.
- Are you going to be okay? - No.
- Let me rephrase that. - I was called many times...
for doing that.
This would summon our producer as well.
- I'm sorry. - Okay.
I was trying to be funny.
Actually Sohn Suk Hee is like a mother figure to me.
- Mom? - Yes?
A mother figure.
No matter how silly I act,
he always embraces me like a mother.
Do you have any stories about Mr. Sohn?
The first time I met him was...
the first anchor interview.
He was the interviewer of the exam.
- For MBC? - I took an exam at MBC.
- You took their exam? - When I went there for the exam,
Anchor Sohn Suk Hee was...
sitting in front of me.
"I'm Jo Woo Jong, number 131."
"Okay. Leave."
Leave? Before you try anything?
- Why did he say that? - I only said my number,
but he said, "Okay. Leave."
He wouldn't do that.
But experts know...
if you'll pass the exam or not...
just by hearing their number.
I understood that he already saw what I have.
The years went on, and I became an interviewer...
after 10 years.
I interviewed people...
in his spot.
You can't judge people...
by listening to their number.
You listen to half of their story...
for pity.
They must've practiced a lot.
Of course. But if he failed me there,
that shows how much he hated me.
No. I bet my everything that he's not that kind of person.
He doesn't hate anyone at first glance.
There must've been a reason.
You should look for that reason in yourself.
(You should look for that reason in yourself.)
I'll find it.
My goodness.
- He's not that kind of person? - No.
He would never do that.
He must've had a crucial reason for disqualification.
It must be fatal.
- "Fatal." - "Fatal."
I agree with him because...
he's more strict than you can imagine.
Of course.
I once got scolded...
before I could...
- say anything. - Why?
Around 2002,
I thought I had no chance in the news.
I thought I should change my career.
I decided to move to entertainment shows.
I had to appeal to people,
so I decided to change my hairstyle.
So I dyed my hair.
- Hairy dye? - Yes.
- To change your look. - It was yellowish.
- That's pretty shocking. - Something light.
- In 2002, 2003. - It was shocking at the time.
It was really shocking at the time.
I dyed my hair in the day,
and I had to enter the newsroom.
I couldn't possibly go in...
- It's not easy. - because when I go in,
I was afraid of the reactions I would get.
I was really nervous, but then I opened the door and went in.
I sat down and raised my head.
I met Mr. Sohn's eyes.
(Watching)
(Come here.)
You have to go.
- He didn't say anything. - That's frightening.
So I walked up to him.
He said, "What are you doing?"
- He doesn't talk long. - No.
I said, "Sir. I want to be an anchor..."
"for entertainment shows."
I have to say it with confidence.
But I was discouraged and said,
"I just gave it a try."
(I just gave it a try.)
(He understands.)
He said,
"Back to normal."
- You did it today. - I know.
I was discouraged by his charisma,
and said, "Yes,sir."
(He was discouraged by his charisma and said yes.)
- Did you go straight? - I went straight to the hair salon.
I dyed my hair black again.
On the same day.
- I know. - He's charismatic.
We've talked about Mr. Sohn for 20 minutes.
- I know. - He said not to talk about him.
- It feels like he's here. - What do we do?
Anchor Sung Kyu is loved...
by that scary Mr. Sohn.
Don't we need to check if it's true?
We should.
- If he's really loved. - If he's really loved.
Can you call him if you're that close?
Of course. He always answers my calls...
whenever I call him.
- Really? - Of course. Even in bed.
- He answers even in bed? - Yes.
Can you tell?
One time, he answered during the news.
(They can't believe him.)
You're going too far.
Sung Kyu. No way.
That's how much he opens up to me.
I think he might answer it if I call him now.
- Really? - Yes.
- If he does answer, it'd be crazy. - That'd be awesome.
- He's never on variety shows. - Actually, I always call him...
after I send him a text.
I knew it. Was there a time when you called him...
without sending a text in advance?
I should start now.
Because I'm feeling ambitious, I can't think logically now.
- Is it okay for me to call him now? - At a time like this,
- call him. Get the beating later. - Or... Okay.
- I'll call him now. - All right.
- He's Suk Hee's favourite junior. - Exactly.
- He cherishes Sung Kyu. - That's right.
- Suk Hee is almost like his mother. - I think he's really nervous.
- This is... - He has never been on a show.
- Exactly. - He's never been on a variety show.
My hand is clammy.
- This is making him nervous. - Little Suk Hee.
Sung Kyu will call Suk Hee, the anchor of a news program,
during our shoot.
- He's calling. - He's calling.
That's his ringback tone.
("Travelling Boy" by Art Garfunkel)
- My goodness. - Isn't this a great song?
- Sure. - My gosh.
(Calling Suk Hee)
Hold on. Are you sure you're calling the right number?
- No, look. - Is it the right number?
The number you have dialed is not available at this moment.
(The number you have dialed is not available at this moment.)
(Feeling dejected)
(Her familiar voice pierces through his heart.)
Could he be having a meal now?
- Your call is being forwarded. - Right. My gosh.
- This is... - I got a text message.
You did?
"I'm sorry. I can't talk right now."
That's an automated text message.
- It's an automated message. - You get it when he declines it.
But I'm certain that...
he is trying to toughen me up.
- He did that on purpose? - Yes, he wanted me to grow.
He didn't answer it even if he knew it was you?
- Seriously. - He had a bigger thing in mind.
- I know that about him. - If he does care about Sung Kyu,
- he will call back. - Exactly.
- He will see the missed call. - He will call right away.
- Just now, - He's Sung Kyu's mentor.
- he couldn't answer. He's busy. - That's right.
- I put my phone on silent. - Put it on the table.
- I'll turn it on just in case. - Sure.
Sung Kyu will keep his phone turned on.
- I'll turn this on. - We shoot for 10 hours.
- If Suk Hee doesn't call back, - If he doesn't,
- it'd be dangerous. - he's not Sung Kyu's mentor.
- Sung Kyu is a nobody to him. - That's right.
- They are strangers. - They are strangers.
- If he doesn't call back, - All right.
we will settle that they are not close.
Don't you think I lost too many things on this show today?
Right?
- I'm suddenly getting worried. - Like his job?
- It concerns his job. - Well, this is...
Due to uncontrollable factors, you might be forced to declare...
that you will be a free agent around tomorrow.
(Choking)
- That's possible. - Right?
- That's possible. - In my opinion...
- It will happen soon for him. - Exactly.
All right.
Before we take a look at his fridge, please show us what he wants to eat.
Show us.
"Project to Enhance Leftover Healthy Ingredients".
- I'm always on a diet. - Okay.
I already bought ingredients for my diet,
but I didn't eat them. And their expiration date is close.
- You bought a lot. - Okay.
I want to eat something really tasty and flavourful...
with these ingredients I bought for my diet.
I want to see how healthy food can turn into such delicious food.
- That's what I chose that theme. - Okay.
- The next one is "Appetizing Food". - "Appetizing Food".
- "One Million Followers". - "Are You Watching This, G-Dragon?"
- Tell us about this theme. - To be honest,
I've been quite active on Instagram lately.
I will be really happy if I get one million followers.
I promised that I'd become a free agent if that happened.
- If you get 1 million followers? - 1 million followers?
Right now, I have about 93,000 followers.
I want a fancy-looking dish that will get me new followers.
I want a dish that will bring in 10,000 followers.
Or the dish that will get me 10,000 likes.
I chose these theme because I wanted to see impressive dishes.
I must be circumspect about the mention of G-Dragon.
I follow about 200 people now.
I stopped following everyone, so I'm not following anyone now.
- Is it the same with G-Dragon? - He doesn't follow anyone.
- The same goes for Yoo Ah In. - I see.
Many famous stars don't...
- follow anyone. - Then why are you doing that?
I believe that zero is the same as infinity.
- With my desire to follow everyone, - Okay.
- I don't follow anyone. - I see.
- The interesting thing is that... - Okay.
- when G-Dragon was on this show, - Yes?
- He sat there. - he sat here.
- That's right. Tae Yang sat there. - Exactly.
- G-Dragon sat in your seat. - I realised that when I admire...
someone deeply, I start to resemble him.
- Is that the connection? - It was interesting.
Seriously.
Let us find out the pairings of the chefs for today's cook-offs.
The chefs are Poong, Sam, Mihal, and Yeon Bok.
Four of these chefs will cook for Sung Kyu.
We'll look through Sung Kyu's refrigerator now.
He lives happily with his family. Isn't it family of three?
That's right.
- You got married five years ago. - That's right.
Does that mean you got married before you got your job?
I got hired in 2011 and married my wife in May, 2014.
- I see. - My wife and I...
- attended the same primary school. - My gosh.
- Really? - Yes.
Then you've been together for a very long time.
That's right. I had a crush on her when I was 20.
- My goodness. - We dated for 10 years.
- You dated for 10 years? - Yes, but during those 10 years,
we weren't together for three years.
He's quite the romantic.
- Something is vibrating now. - Right.
- Wait. - Really?
Is it him?
(Will he be able to talk to Suk Hee on the phone?)
(It's the voice he has been wanting to hear desperately.)
It's vibrating.
(Did he call Sung Kyu?)
- Who is it? - It was a telemarketing text.
(He's in despair.)
- All right. I see. - Don't get your hopes up.
- It was quite a surprise. - It surprised me.
Recently, Sung Kyu became the first announcer to weigh...
- 100kg. This was quite the topic. - Right.
- That's true. - But you once had...
quite the muscular physique like Kwon Sang Woo.
- Is this true? - I once partook in...
a competition for the best physique.
- I see. - When I participated,
- I won the main award. - My goodness.
- Here are the photos. - My gosh, what is that?
They are his before and after photos.
- I weighed 88kg back then. - 88kg.
- He lost a lot of weight. - What about the one on the right?
I weighed 76kg in that photo.
I lost 13kg of body fat for 6 months.
- That's amazing. - I agree.
What was your favourite food?
My favourite food is ramyeon.
- But you can't eat that. - Yes, it's ramyeon.
How many bags of ramyeon can you eat at once?
My father and I cooked 10 bags when I was in middle school.
I couldn't finish the soup,
but my father and I finished the noodles.
- That's how much I love noodles. - I see.
Then are you still on a diet?
- I'll start it tomorrow. - Okay.
- Right. You can't do it today. - That's right. You can't.
- You will eat what you want today. - Yes, I'll eat what I want today.
- I will start my diet tomorrow. - Okay.
Let's check out his refrigerator.
- Let's take a look. - This is Sung Kyu's refrigerator.
- This is your son. - Yes.
- That's my son's photo. - What's his name?
It's Jang Ha Joon.
- Ha Joon. It's Ha Joon. - Yes.
I see your wife here. She's beautiful.
- Thank you. - Sure.
When is she the loveliest?
It has to be when she's sleeping.
- When she's sleeping? - That's what you think already?
- When she's sleeping? - Already?
- When she's quietly sleeping? - Yes.
When is your wife the loveliest, Seong Joo?
- My wife? - Yes.
- When she sleeps? - It's the same. When she sleeps.
She doesn't nag when she's sleeping.
She looks very peaceful when she sleeps.
I'm curious to see what Sung Kyu has been eating.
Let's take a look inside Sung Kyu's refrigerator!
(He's the son of JTBC.)
(What will be inside Sung Kyu's refrigerator?)
(What does the 1st 100kg-announcer have in his fridge?)
(His refrigerator is fully stocked.)
- There's a lot of food. - There's a lot.
- They are organized neatly too. - Right.
But the first thing I noticed was...
the food for his son, cheese. Isn't this for your kid?
It's one of my son's favourite food.
- Kids must eat a lot of cheese. - Right.
- Is konjac jelly for your diet? - Is it for your diet?
- Is it? - That's right.
- It's only 10 calories for 200g. - It's low on calories.
- Since I love noodles, - Okay.
a friend of mine recommended me konjac jelly noodles.
I put konjac jelly noodles in place of ramyeon noodles.
- I did it for spaghetti too, - It won't be good.
- but I couldn't eat them. - You shouldn't.
For strange reasons, it's hard to season them.
- That's right. - It's hard to season them.
- That's true. - It's low-calorie food though.
- Do you have a lot of leftover? - Yes, I can't get rid of them.
All right. When we move a shelf below,
I see meat. Is this beef brisket?
- This must be pork belly with skin. - Right.
My favourite food is meat.
- I told you that it was ramyeon, - Right.
I used to grill pork belly in the morning even before I got married.
I'm a bit crazy about meat.
- You love meat. - I do.
This is smoked meat.
- It's smoked duck. - It's duck.
- He has smoked duck. - I love duck.
- I see they have beer too. - My gosh.
(Beer)
- You occasionally drink at home. - That's right.
I love drinking. That's all I have for now,
but usually, I stock up with drinks.
- I drink all types of alcohol. - I see.
I always have a can of beer whenever I drink with my wife at night.
- We drink it together. - I see.
- We'll check out the produce. - All right.
I see lettuce, chilli peppers, onions,
and small sweet potatoes. Do you like vegetables?
Actually, I don't eat vegetables that much.
I usually eat vegetables with meat.
But I do eat raw onions often.
What about cabbages?
I like to eat cabbages the traditional way.
- I mix it with ketchup and mayo. - Ketchup and mayonnaise.
- You mix it with dressing. - I enjoy eating it like that.
These ingredients must be for Western food. I see parsley,
- pickling spice, and olives. - They are.
Do you often cook Western food at home?
My wife loves Western cuisine the most.
But personally, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat Western dishes.
Is your favourite cuisine Korean?
- Chinese cuisine is my favourite. - Chinese cuisine.
That's why I'm very looking forward to Yeon Bok's food.
- I can't wait to taste his food. - Okay.
I see jjajang sauce here.
- Jjajang? - "Stir-fried jjajang".
I love Chinese food as if I'm Chinese.
I especially love stir-fried jjajangmyeon these days.
- Vegetables like onions are... - It has a lot of onions.
- very fresh. That's why. - Now, I'm craving it.
I love glutinous, sweet and sour pork.
I love mianbao xia too. I love those kind of dishes.
- Now the freezer. - Let's move on to the freezer.
His wife is good at this.
After the package has been opened...
She once put a binder clip on my mouth.
Stop it.
She did it to keep the air out.
These here...
I think these are for diet.
For easy meals, I bought...
packed lunch for weight loss.
Also...
- This is it. - Look.
- There are a lot. - There are a lot.
We are seeing a lot of food items for weight loss.
Sausages. There are a lot.
These two drawers are full.
They are here as well.
- That's right. - You don't know how to eat them.
Sausages and such are the food items...
my wife wants...
- the chefs to take care of. - I see.
You want these taken care of.
- These sausages are the problem. - Right, sausages.
Thus, we took a look...
inside Sung Kyu's refrigerator.
Now, the cook-off between Chef Yeon Bok...
and Chef Mihal begins.
(The first cook-off begins.)
This is the first cook-off that uses the ingredients...
inside Sung Kyu's refrigerator.
It's a match between Chef Yeon Bok and Chef Mihal,
who will clear the drawers that are currently filled...
with food items for a diet.
- Chef Mihal was gone for a month. - Yes.
Despite that, he has a lot of star badges.
- He won all three matches. - That's right.
Chef Mihal is the only one who hasn't taken a single loss.
He has beaten Chef Yeon Bok, Chef Raymon, and Chef Se Deuk.
- They are talented chefs. - Fantastic!
I thought he won those star badges against Poong.
- No, he didn't. - He didn't.
He hasn't competed against Poong yet.
- No, he hasn't. - The only chef...
with one star badge is Chef Yeon Bok.
(Chef Yeon Bok is on the lowest rank.)
- It's unbelievable. - It's beyond my imagination.
I know. He took four consecutive losses.
I never thought I would see the day.
He said he will make a lot of dishes...
that deviate from his original style.
I bet your resolution is wavering.
It's wavering a lot.
I will go back to my original style...
and win some star badges...
before I experiment again.
(The Grand Master of Chinese cuisine is back.)
(Chef Mihal chose beer, cream cheese, chicken breast cubes,)
(packed lunch, chicken breast sausage, sliced chicken breast,)
(french fries, green olives, apple, chilli sauce, raspberry jam,)
(lettuce, cucumber, and orange.)
(Chef Yeon Bok chose canned whelk, konjac jelly noodles, zucchini,)
(pork belly with skin, bread, sliced chicken breast, pine nut,)
(sliced cheddar, cucumber, instant jajang powder, and lettuce.)
Chef Mihal, which dish will you prepare?
The name of the dish is Chicken Cheese Smile.
- Chicken Cheese Smile. - Yes.
Chicken is my favourite food.
Since you like to drink,
I will make bar food.
I will coat chicken breast cubes and other ingredients...
with batter and deep-fry them.
The dish will make you crave for beer.
It will be a party.
I am excited.
- Chicken Cheese Smile. - Chicken Cheese Smile.
Chef Yeon Bok, which dish will you prepare...
to beat him?
The dish I will prepare today is Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
Jjajangmyeon.
- My goodness. - I love ganjjajang.
- It will be neck-and-neck. - He came back to Chinese cuisine.
- That's right. - Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
Among the ingredients in his refrigerator,
- I noticed instant jajang powder. - That's right.
I will boil konjac jelly noodles and pour sauce over it...
to make ganjjajang.
You might want to drink beer at home...
from time to time.
For that occasion, I will make mianbao xia with chicken breast.
It's the best dish to enjoy with beer.
(The man who loves to drink becomes excited.)
I will make those two dishes.
You will make Sung Kyu's favourite dishes,
mianbao xia and ganjjajang.
I am a bit worried...
because I tried making ramyeon and pasta...
with konjac jelly noodles.
They didn't taste like regular noodles.
It would be great if he can overcome that challenge.
(Then he will have a chance of winning.)
We will now start the first cook-off!
He aims to break free from a slump today.
Chef Lee Yeon Bok will show you the rich and deep taste...
of Chinese cuisine.
He is the most consistent chef.
With a simple and ingenious dish,
Chef Mihal will give an unwanted ingredient...
a total makeover.
Which chef will find a better way of using an unwanted ingredient?
We will now start the first cook-off!
(The 15-minute cook-off begins.)
It's Chef Yeon Bok, who was the champion in two seasons...
versus Chef Mihal, who hasn't lost once in this season.
(Add salt to the boiling water and boil eggs.)
Who will be the winner?
Chef Mihal prepares the vegetables first.
He makes natural dishes.
What is that juice?
It's from canned whelk.
It's for stock.
- Yes. - It's seasoned.
There is no reason to throw it away.
He cooks konjac jelly noodles in it.
He is adding lemon juice to konjac jelly noodles.
He is an experienced chef.
He added konjac jelly noodles before the broth began to boil.
- I see. - What difference does it make?
Now,
the noodles won't shrivel up...
as Sung Kyu worried.
(He chops pork belly with skin.)
He doesn't disappoint.
(Add oil to the pan and stir-fry chopped pork belly with skin.)
It looks like he is preparing...
the ingredients that go into jjajangmyeon.
He said he needs a lot of zucchini and onion.
I don't know if I should say this, but...
- Don't say it. - Okay.
What is it?
I didn't get to tell Chef Yeon Bok in advance,
but I dislike zucchini.
- Really? - What does he dislike?
He dislikes zucchini.
- Zucchini? - Yes.
- He can't take them out now. - He can't take them out now.
You should have told him in advance.
You should have told him when he was dicing it.
(What?)
(He throws everything away.)
Will he start over?
(He feels bad.)
I can't believe it.
I am sorry I didn't tell you in advance.
- He doesn't add zucchini this time. - He's doing it all over again.
He shouldn't have wasted his time.
You should have told him in advance.
It was too late.
If someone who is my junior had said something like that to me,
I would have given him a beating.
You wouldn't have taught him a lesson.
I am sorry.
(Meanwhile, Chef Mihal...)
(Sieve flour.)
(Mix flour, egg yolk, olive oil, and beer to make batter.)
He is adding beer already.
He is using beer, my favourite ingredient.
To make a batter for frying,
- he is adding beer. - He is adding beer.
Adding beer to the batter makes...
- deep-fried food crispier. - I see.
The batter took on the colour of beer.
You are right.
I love crispy food.
(Add salt to egg white and beat to make meringue.)
Chief Mihal, is that meringue?
- It's for batter. - It's for batter.
It's for batter.
Such technique is used often in French cuisine.
- In French, it's "Pate a frire". - "Pate a frire".
That kind of batter makes the deep-fried dish...
soft, not crispy.
Chef Yeon Bok is making mianbao xia.
He is making mianbao xia.
He will blend chicken breast.
(Blend sliced chicken breast, eggs, starch, and butter for filling.)
Since chicken breast is dry,
he is adding butter.
Pork is usually used for this kind of dishes.
He will blend the ingredients.
(He blends the ingredients.)
(Add pine nuts and salt to chicken breast filling.)
- Will he add cheese? - Really?
He will put cheese inside mianbao xia.
When you bite into it,
- the cheese will come out. - That's right.
My son would like it, too.
(He checks the temperature with bread crusts.)
The temperature is too high.
He doesn't like the temperature of the oil.
Getting the oil right is the hardest part of making the dish.
The bread soaks up a lot of oil.
For mianbao xia, the temperature starts low.
Then it slowly goes up.
- I see. - It's a difficult dish to make.
(Chef Mihal takes out cream cheese.)
(Dice frozen cream cheese and coat the pieces with flour.)
(Chicken breast cubes appear.)
Chef Mihal, what are you doing?
I will fry these.
- Will you fry them? - I will fry them.
Both of them are making deep-fried dishes. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
Aren't those chicken breast cubes?
Yes, they are chicken breasts we saw earlier.
He is frying them.
One fell apart.
Did one fall apart?
One fell apart.
- The bread doesn't stick. - One fell apart.
- What happened? - The dish will take more time.
Using chicken instead of shrimp can be difficult...
because chicken isn't sticky.
I think he will be pressed for time.
There isn't much time.
That's right. There isn't much time.
Please take out peas and corns.
- Peas and corns? - Yes.
What are you doing? They are picking peas.
(Pick peas and corns from packed lunch for weight loss.)
Thank you.
Chef Mihal combined the different types...
of chicken breast that were in my refrigerator.
(Chop chicken breast, chicken breast sausage, and french fries.)
I think he will make a salad.
You are right.
(Add peas, corns, sliced green olives, salt, and pepper.)
(Add mayonnaise and diced apple and mix to make a salad.)
Chef Mihal is making a salad.
Chef Mihal's dishes are coming along nicely.
- 5 minutes remain. - Now, less than 5 minutes remain.
Jung Hwan, please go out in the field.
Please go out in the field.
Konjac jelly noodles are being braised.
- Taste konjac jelly noodles. - I will taste them.
- You should use chopsticks. - I can't pick them up.
How frustrating!
- It's frustrating. - It's frustrating.
Check konjac jelly noodles.
Jung Hwan is tasting konjac jelly noodles.
(How do konjac jelly noodles taste?)
How do they taste? Do they taste okay?
- The noodles are... - What?
- chewy. - The noodles are chewy.
They are seasoned.
(Konjac jelly noodles are seasoned now.)
Since they were boiling from the start,
they are seasoned now.
(Add boiled carrots to the salad.)
This salad uses...
vegetables from a packed lunch.
He cleaned out the refrigerator this way.
- He put them in salad. - Time is running out.
Time is running out.
(Mix vegetables from packed lunch, diced onions, and chilli sauce...)
(and put the content in a ring mold.)
He is putting the content in a mold.
Will you shape it?
- I am busy. - Are you busy?
- He is busy. - He is busy.
About two minutes remain.
- There isn't much time left. - There isn't much time left.
(Strain braised konjac jelly noodles and remove excess water.)
There isn't oyster sauce.
(Add soy sauce and jajang powder and stir-fry to make jajang sauce.)
He is adding jajang powder.
Mianbao xia is coming along.
The noodles should come with the sauce.
That's why I need to add starch.
Then the sauce will stick to the noodles.
You are deep-frying chicken, right?
- Cheese and chicken. - Cheese and chicken.
It must have been hard to deep-fry cheese.
(Put lettuce, deep-fried cheese, and deep-fried chicken on a plate.)
(Mix in mashed eggs with the salad before plating.)
It's time to wrap up.
50 seconds remain.
Seeing the Pyeongchang Olympics made him recreate...
the opening ceremony on a plate.
It's fitting of a chef who have been to Pyeongchang.
One side of the plate looks like a curling stadium.
- Young Mi! Young Mi! - Young Mi! Young Mi!
- It's coming along nicely. - It looks incredible.
25 seconds remain. It's time to wrap up the dishes.
- There isn't much time left. - Wrap up the dishes.
Mihal's dish is extravagant.
- His hands are moving faster. - This is incredible.
(Plate the cabbage after chopping.)
(Take out mianbao xia and plate them.)
Mianbao xia is ready. The last item is...
- Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon. - Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
- 10, 9, - It must be hot.
- 8, 7. - 8, 7.
(Pour jjajang sauce over konjac noodles...)
(and top with cucumber.)
(Shape green olives into rabbits and toss over salad.)
- He is done. - He is done.
Mihal gets done first. Yeon Bok gets done as well.
- They are done. - They are done.
(The fierce match made their palms sweaty.)
Watching them made me break into a sweat.
- I know. - It was nerve-wracking.
Neither of them were willing to yield.
- Chef Yeon Bok served noodles, - That's right.
- so you can eat his dish first. - It's jjajangmyeon.
It's fair play.
Would you be okay with it? Would it be your pleasure?
- Of course. - Okay. Thank you.
(Thank you, Chef Mihal.)
(Jjajangmyeon with konjac noodles and chicken mianbao xia)
(Chef Lee Yeon Bok's Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon)
- My goodness. - It looks delicious.
- Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon. - Mix the noodles.
It looks great.
When the viewers see this at this hour,
they will pick up their phone to order jjajangmyeon.
Chinese restaurants are busy taking orders.
Seriously.
Look at those noodles.
I wonder how those noodles taste.
I know. Will the dish taste like jjajangmyeon?
(He picks up the noodles that are mixed well.)
It must be hot.
(You can see how firm konjac noodles are.)
You need to cut the noodles.
- The noodles are too firm. - You need to cut the noodles.
Sung Kyu, cut the noodles.
Sung Kyu, this is where you cut the noodles.
He is inhaling noodles.
It looks like he will finish the entire bowl.
Konjac jelly noodles are hard to cut.
The noodles must be down to his esophagus.
I thought he would finish the entire bowl.
He ate with relish.
(He exclaims first...)
(and gives a thumbs up later.)
Does it taste like jjajangmyeon?
It's jjajangmyeon I love.
Moreover, I thought these noodles taste like what you get...
- at a sashimi restaurant. - Kelp noodles.
- Kelp noodles. - Kelp noodles.
When my wife and I had them at home, they tasted like kelp noodles.
Now, they taste like real noodles.
These konjac jelly noodles are soft.
That's interesting.
It's hard to get sauce on konjac jelly.
I know. Instead of cooking them in water,
he braised them...
in the juice from canned whelk.
He eliminated the fishy smell with lemon.
It's like magic.
- May I try the sauce? - Try the sauce alone.
The sauce must taste great with rice.
That's right. Chef Yeon Bok made it, after all.
- Jjajang rice is tasty, too. - It will taste great with rice.
Instant jajang powder usually doesn't taste right.
- I know. - He used jajang powder.
- I know. - That's strange.
- Not chunjang. - It was instant jajang powder.
If I hadn't seen the cooking process,
I wouldn't have thought he used instant jajang powder.
(It tastes like the traditional jjajangmyeon.)
Does ganjjajang originally contain pork belly?
Pork legs are often used.
I think using pork belly...
resulted in better-tasting ganjjajang.
- That's right. - Pork belly...
completed the dish.
Why don't you try mianbao xia this time?
He used chicken instead of shrimp.
We saw earlier...
that there is cheese inside chicken.
One contains cheese while the other doesn't.
Which one contains cheese?
I don't know.
- He doesn't know. - He doesn't know.
- If you cut it... - You need to cut it.
- Then... - Eat one.
Go ahead and try one.
If you eat both of them, you will be too full.
I think that one contains cheese.
- It looks that way, right? - That one contains cheese.
Cheese...
- Will he eat it in one bite? - Don't do that.
(He puts the whole thing in his mouth.)
That's just wrong.
(I am ambitious when it comes to eating, too.)
It would have been nice to see the cheese come out.
Now, only you will know.
I have never seen someone shove mianbao xia in his mouth.
The corners of your lips look sore.
Your lips are a bit torn, Sung Kyu.
- Like Joker? - They are torn here.
- It's tasty. - Is it tasty?
It tastes a bit different from the mianbao xia I know.
I am sure the different ingredient is the reason,
but the filling tastes like mashed potato.
- Mashed potato. - Chicken tastes that way.
I can't believe it's chicken.
I feel like I am eating mashed potato...
that is wrapped with bread and deep-fried in oil.
- It's soft. - It's very soft.
It's smooth.
Make sure you cut the last one in half.
Cut it so that we can see if there is cheese inside.
- Is there cheese? - Yes, there is.
- There it is. - I don't see it.
All right. There is cheese inside.
How does mianbao xia taste with cheese inside?
(Humming in approval)
Compared to mianbao xia I had earlier,
it tastes similar.
I bet it tastes the same.
Are you saying there was no need to add cheese?
No, I am not.
What's the point of adding cheese of the taste is similar?
- You have a point. - I do, right?
(You have a point.)
- For goodness' sake. - All right.
- Cabbage. - You could add...
something other than chicken.
You know, this dish makes me crave for beer.
- It does, right? - Yes.
(A platter of heavy salad and deep-fried chicken and cheese)
(Chef Mihal's Chicken Cheese Smile)
The amount is...
- very generous. - It's very generous.
What's more impressive is that he made rabbits with olives.
- Aren't they pretty? - They are.
It's like the opening ceremony for the Olympics.
That's right.
Is that Soohorang?
- It's so cute. - I see.
Try the square thing that's deep-fried.
- It's cheese cube. - Chicken cube.
Should he dip it in raspberry jam?
- A little bit. - Is this raspberry jam?
Raspberry jam?
I don't know which cube you chose.
- There is a variety. - I see.
It's going to be a surprise.
Raspberry jam goes well with deep-fried food.
How does it taste? Does it taste good?
- It tastes like a cream puff. - A cream puff?
- Try something else. - Is there something inside?
It really tastes like a pastry ball with cream inside.
- Is there cheese inside? - Yes.
- He added cheese. - There are cheese...
and chicken. He ate cheese.
It's made with what your son likes, cream cheese.
The cheese inside must feel like cream.
- It's cheese. - Cheese.
The smaller one...
- The smaller one is chicken. - It's chicken.
- It's Chicken. - There are a lot of sauces.
That's right.
(He dips it in chilli sauce this time.)
What's inside?
(Hold on.)
I guess he doesn't know.
The chicken breast cubes are very dry.
It's the batter that makes them soft.
You preserved the dry taste...
of the chicken breast cubes.
(You preserved the dry taste of the chicken breast cubes.)
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
- Did he preserve the dry taste? - Yes.
You preserved the dry taste well.
Is he criticizing the dish in a roundabout way?
I think so.
He preserved it well.
(I can't believe him.)
Dry the heavy salad.
- The heavy salad? - Yes.
- It's heavy. - How will he try the next dishes?
- It contains a lot of eggs. - Maybe he will share.
- The next dishes... - I think it will be too rich.
(The rising star of the eating show doesn't shy away.)
Sung Kyu has a big appetite.
Isn't it too rich? Is it okay?
Dip it in raspberry jam.
Do we have aged kimchi?
It must be too rich.
I am kidding.
Chicken breast sausage is dry,
so I can't eat a lot of it.
In this salad, it doesn't taste dry.
I will eat it well if it's prepared this way.
- He eats a lot. - We will try the dishes as well.
We will first try Chef Mihal's Chicken Cheese Smile.
It's a heavy salad.
It would have been very dry if it weren't for olives and apples.
- I added them on purpose. - They made the salad...
more moist.
Cheese tastes amazing.
(Let's see.)
(It tastes amazing.)
- It's like cream puff. - Cheese spread in my mouth.
- I know. - Seriously.
It's a fascinating dish.
I want to take a biscuit,
put cheese in the middle,
and eat it with wine.
I think it will go wonderfully with wine.
Do you use a special method...
to keep cheese from melting when you deep-fry it?
I froze it beforehand...
because it was too soft.
You can use any types of cheese.
Brie and camembert taste...
incredible when they are deep-fried.
The next dish is Chef Yeon Bok's Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
Try Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon.
(Impressed)
- Noodle is great. - How did he make this...
with instant jajang powder?
- It's a nice dish. - I can't believe it.
How did he make this with instant jajang powder?
You can't tell it was made with instant jajang powder.
You could release a new product based on this dish.
It will be jjajangmyeon for people who are on a diet.
200g of konjac jelly noodles has 10kcal.
They will help you lose weight.
I worried about Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon...
because of konjac jelly noodles.
However, they taste nearly the same as regular noodles.
I can't believe he made this sauce...
with instant jajang powder.
It's magic.
I think the texture is...
- better than jjajangmyeon's. - I agree.
- Some might like this more. - I like this more.
- It's also low on calories. - That's right.
This is the best part of this jjajangmyeon.
Some people love noodles, but they are allergic to flour.
That's right.
This will be perfect for those.
People who can't eat jjajangmyeon because of their allergy.
- People who can't digest well. - Right.
Some people can't digest flour.
- That's right. They can eat this. - This would be the best.
Now, it's time for you to vote.
- All right. - Sung Kyu will vote now.
He must make a decision now.
Press one to vote for Mihal.
Press two to vote for Yeon Bok.
Please cast your vote.
- I did. - You voted.
- It was a hard decision. - It was hard.
Let's check out Sung Kyu's decision. Show us the result.
Will Yeon Bok be able to put an end to his four-match losing streak?
Or will Mihal continue his winning streak and take his fourth win?
Let's check Sung Kyu's decision.
Which one is it?
Which one is it? Who is the winner?
It's Yeon Bok!
(Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon wins.)
It's Yeon Bok.
He ended Mihal's winning streak.
- He did. - He's truly a master.
No one can beat him when it comes to Chinese cuisine.
- No one can. - That's right. No one can beat him.
I focused on the type of food I like.
He cooked me a meal with my favourite food I said earlier.
- That earned him a lot of points. - Okay.
The fact he presented great flavours with konjac jelly blew my mind.
I wanted to show him my gratitude for showing me through his dish...
that ready-made jjajang powder could taste great.
- I see. - I mean it.
Yeon Bok, you put an end to your losing streak.
You will get to take a star badge. Please tell us how you feel.
I think doing ridiculous challenges is too challenging.
I'll return to my area of expertise and rethink my strategy.
Sung Kyu will put the badge on Yeon Bok's coat.
- It's his long-waited second win. - Should I put it on right here?
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
(Konjac Jelly Jjajangmyeon wins.)
(Cook the noodles with canned whelk juice and lemon.)
(Make the sauce with pork belly, onions, jjajang powder, and starch.)
(Cut off the crusts, and roll the bread.)
(Make the batter with chicken breast, starch, and butter.)
(Deep-fry the bread and the stuffing together.)
We'll begin the second cook-off with ingredients from Sung Kyu's fridge.
This one has to do with chefs who are addicted to social media.
This cook-off is between Sam and Poong.
- Am I addicted to social media? - Yes.
How many followers do you have now?
I have 210,000 followers.
- 210,000 followers. - I see.
- He is popular on social media. - He is indeed.
What about you, Sam? How many followers do you have?
I have about 310,000 followers.
(He has the most followers on the cast.)
- He's really popular. - That's amazing.
Well, I have a question about the social media.
Tell us the kind of food pictures that are popular on social media.
- Instead of photos of neat dishes, - Okay.
hearty-looking dishes are popular like the one with melted cheese.
People like it the best when it gets the moment when food is at its best.
(I see!)
It was last year. When Kim Yoon Ah came onto our show,
- I cooked this caterpillar dish. - Right.
I believe that unique-looking dishes are quite popular too.
I think it's the contrary. People might stop following him.
(They will stop following.)
- Because it looks nasty? - They will "unfollow" him.
(Sam chose cucumber chilli, pork belly with skin, beef brisket,)
(ready-made meat brochette, smoked duck slice,)
(cucumber, plain yogurt, sliced Cheddar cheese,)
(Korean pears, balsamic dressing, and parsley.)
(Poong chose tomato extract, pine nut, green olives, cream cheese,)
(Comte cheese, perilla leaf, beef brisket, pork belly with skin,)
(pickled radish slice, and dried laver.)
Sam, tell us about your dish today.
The dish I prepared for today's match is...
It's Showtime for Cheese.
- What was that? - Is that how you do it?
Hey, it's show time.
- Hey. - Hey.
Let's do it again.
Hey, It's Showtime for Cheese.
(Hey, It's Showtime for Cheese, Sam's dish)
- I see. - "Hey, It's Showtime"?
I'll cook a patty for a burger, but he said he likes onions.
I'll serve fried onions and grilled onions and cheese on the patty.
It won't be just one layer. I will add multiple layers.
I will grind the Korean pear with balsamic vinegar.
I will plate it so that it won't taste greasy.
- I see. - I will look forward to it.
The name of the dish I will make today is...
My Fish Is Pretty Good.
- That's it. - I doubt that.
I research every day...
to see what kind of food is trending these days.
- I keep an eye on the trend. - Okay.
I will take these things into consideration and cook.
You will see a fish today.
That's why you included "fish" in the name.
- That's right. - I see.
A carp.
- A carp? - It's a symbol of success.
- You have tomato extract. - I do.
I will cook tomato egg soup. It will be delicious.
And I believe that my dish will also look beautiful too.
- Woo Jong will commentate... - Right.
- on the cook-off this time. - Right.
- Sure, I'd love to. - Please do a good job.
Your junior announcer will be watching.
- I will try my best. - All right. Okay.
- You're very helpful, Seong Joo. - I'm sure you will do well.
Why don't we start the cook-off now?
He's the creative, thinking box of Chef and My Fridge.
Poong claims he will help Sung Kyu become a popular celebrity...
on social media with an amazing-looking dish.
Going up against Poong, we have Sam...
who claims he will deliver the ultimate, best-looking dish...
that deserves one million likes.
Will the viewers follow Sung Kyu on social media...
or stop following him?
Let the 15-minute cook-off begin!
(The cook-off begins.)
For this match, presentation will play a major role.
The look will play a big part. Both of them are cooking right away.
- One is chopping spring onions. - Onions and spring onions.
The other chef is cooking onions.
He's preparing the vegetables first.
- Sam is grilling them as expected. - Right.
The grilled vegetables...
will look very appetizing in photos.
- Grilled vegetables. - Will you make vegetable broth?
- I won't. - He usually does.
- He doesn't like it. - People don't like it that much.
(8,000 users don't like it.)
(After preparing spring onions, he prepares the garlics.)
He's very straightforward.
(Stir-fry the spring onions and garlics.)
Are you adding the pear extract?

(Mix starch, egg, and water to make the batter.)
(Slice onions, coat them in batter, and season with salt and pepper.)
- Sam is deep-frying onions. - Fried onion rings.
It's so hard to fry onions properly. The batter will come off too.
That's true. It does come off.
When they are fried, the water seeps out,
- and the batter breaks away. - It comes off.
- That's usually the case. - I see.
(Garlics)
(Pine nut and green olives)
(Comte cheese)
- Poong will grind some things. - I will.
- He'll make the pesto sauce. - Perilla leaves.
I see. Pesto sauce with perilla leaves.
- What will you use the sauce for? - This? I'll stir-fry rice.
- I'll add this to the rice. - Rice? I see.
When I was on a diet, I ground perilla leaves and ate them once.
- Ground perilla leaves were bitter. - Right.
It wasn't to my liking. I'm curious how he'd cook it.
With pine nut and cheese, it won't taste bitter.
He added oil too.
(He finishes making the perilla leaf pesto.)
(Sam is dicing the onions now.)
(Stir-fry diced onions with oil.)
(Pork belly with skin and beef brisket)
(Ready-made meat brochette and smoked duck slice)

(Grind the meat to make the patty.)
(Add stir-fried onions into batter, and season it with salt and pepper.)
(Make a patty, and grill it on a pan with oil.)
- He's making the patty. - That's the patty.
Is that the one with pork and duck?
- It's pork and duck. - And the meat brochette.
- He's frying the onions too. - Right.
He's taking them out now.
- They look golden brown now. - My gosh.
- Will you grind the meat? - Yes.
- Is that pork belly? - Well...
I will use pork belly and beef brisket together.
(Grind beef brisket, pork belly with skin,)
(garlic, pepper, and cooking wine together.)
- He's grinding the meat. - That's right.
(Chopping)
My goodness, Poong's chopping skill has gotten better.
- He's gotten fast now. - Right. "Practice makes perfect."
After starring on Chef and My Fridge for three years,
- he has become a chef. - Right.
(Stir-fry the ground meat with salt and chopped spring onions.)
Poong, what will you make with the meat?
I'll stir-fry it with rice.
- With rice? - Yes.
How will you make fried rice look like a carp?
- I will shape it into a carp. - With fried rice? I see.
- Just like this? - With his hands?
- You'll press it to make the shape? - Carp rice.
- He just used a fancy term for it. - Just like this?
Only the term sounds fancy.

(Poong stir-fries rice.)
Poong is stir-frying rice.
- He is adding the pesto... - Gosh.
on the fried rice.
I wonder what kind of effect it will have.
At least, the colour is nice.
(The greenish fried rice looks fresh.)
The green colour is not bad.
I think it suits spring.
(Why is he grating carrot?)
- He's grating carrot. - Why are you grating it?
To decorate the dish.
- He is focusing a lot... - To make it pretty.
on how the dish will look.
How it looks matters a lot today rather than how it tastes.
At this moment,
- we have less than five minutes. - Right.
- Shall I go? - Yes, Woo Jong.
- Relay the scene out in the field. - Take your spoon.
- Take it with you. - Spoon.
- Woo Jong. - Oh, my spoon.
- Okay. - You need your spoon...
- to taste it. - All right.
I can't wait.
Hello, everyone. I'm in the stadium of Chef and My Fridge...
where Sam Kim and Kim Poong, the two pros,
are competing with each other.
About 20 million people have crowded here.
- 20 million people? - Will they become the followers?
- All the nation's paying attention. - You're doing great.
Sam is quick with his hands,
and Poong on my left side...
is preparing for plating.
- I see. - May I ask how you feel now?
It is so hectic now.
I just need to decorate the dish within the time given.
Sam, how are you doing now?
I'm also short of time, so I need to hurry too.
Okay. The patties look like they're burnt.
- Will they be okay? - It should to look better.
- He said it has to look burnt... - Gosh.
- to look better. - I see.
He knows what is good for pictures.

(Peel the pear...)
(and grind it in a blender.)
(Mix balsamic dressing, ground pear,)
(olive oil, lemon juice,)

(to make sauce.)
Let me taste this soup first.
- Please taste it. - Okay.
- I'll try it. - Go ahead.
He is tasting it.
(Slurping)
- Woo Jong. - I didn't season it yet.
Will it be able to increase his followers up to one million?
More people will unfollow him.
(More people will unfollow him.)
- More people will unfollow him? - Gosh.
- Goodness. - Will they unfollow him?
Numerous people will unfollow him.
He has to season it.
- He has put salt. - Is it that bad?
- Is it? - It's bland now.
And...
there is appetizing fried rice too.
- Right. - Let me taste it now.
- Taste the fried rice. - Fried rice is important.
- Fried rice. - It has perilla leaves in it.
Do you think G-Dragon would be surprised?
- It's salty. - Is it salty?
- It's too salty. - Is it too salty?
He needs to add some more rice.
One dish is bland and the other is salty.
He says it's okay.
My taste bud is changed now.
- It's salty to me. - I see.
It's rather spoiled than changed.
- It's spoiled. - It is.
Now, let's move on to Sam.
Sam is putting cheese on the patties.
Shall I taste this?
- How can you taste that? - How?
There is nothing you can taste.
Please give me a piece of it.
There is a small piece that came off.
- Eat that piece. - How does the patty taste?
Do you think it'll increase the followers?
It just tastes like grilled pork belly.
- He is harsh. - Poong is making the fish shape.
It does taste like grilled pork belly.
- And... - Though it is mixed with others,
- he is making the fish shape. - it tastes more like pork belly.
- It looks like sushi. - It does.
- It does look like sushi. - He is plating in that style.
But it looks like a smelt rather than a carp...
because it is small.
- Is that so? - Yes.
- Poong is shaping it very hard. - He is.
It is visually excellent.
It tastes salty,
but it is visually great.
Is it? He's using pickled radish slices.
Is he claiming that they're carps?
Yes, they are carps.
(Sam starts to plate his food too.)
(He puts raw onion on the bottom.)
(On the raw onion, he puts grilled onion,)
(the patty topped with cheese,)
(grilled onion again,)
(and the patty topped with cheese again.)
- It is collapsing. - It is collapsing.
- Sam's elaboration is collapsing. - Is it collapsing?
- It is falling. - Goodness.
(Sam inserts a skewer.)
- He fixed it with a skewer. - He fixed it now.
He inserted it temporarily.
(He puts the chilli sauce in a small bowl and finishes it.)
20 seconds left.
- There is not much time. - They have only 20 seconds.
- Are they really carps, Poong? - It is so hectic,
and Poong made only two carps so far.
He has to finish the egg soup too.
- The egg soup. - Did you add the egg?
I think I have to...
skip it.
I guess you have to.
- 10, 9, 8... - Pour the rice.
(Poong puts rice on the side of the dish.)
(Sam sprinkles red pepper powder and parsley to finish.)
- 3, 2, 1. - 3, 2, 1.
Sam is done.
Why does he use such a big plate?
I want to know that too. Poong is also finished now.
(My Fish Is Pretty Good is done now.)
There are two carps.
- Please give them a big hand. - They look pretty good.
The space is creating the beauty too.
- It looks a little like a pond. - It does.
(The cook-off for beautiful food is finished now.)
(Abundant grilled and fried onions and cheesy meat patties)
(Sam's Hey, It's Showtime for Cheese)
Hey, It's Showtime for Cheese.
(Thank you.)
Do you want to take a picture first?
- To upload it on your social media. - He should.
- It looks great. - Yeon Bok shines a flashlight.
- It would be great with a light. - It's too close.
(Clicking the shutter)
It's pretty.
He's taking it from above. Good.
(Clicking the shutter)
- It's okay now. - Thank you.
May I say something about how it looks?
- Sure. - Go ahead.
The game is over.
You remember what I'd do if I have one million followers?
- You said you'd go freelance. - You said you'd go freelance.
It's coming soon.
"It's coming soon."
He is doing something strange.
You're absolutely right.
I see.
(He is so funny.)
I love Instagram a lot.
If I see this kind of picture, I'd become a follower right away.
(Followers)
I even feel sorry because this is too beautiful...
to ruin.
(It's too beautiful to ruin.)
It's not collapsing now.
Are you going to eat that in one bite too?
- It's hard to eat it in one bite. - It is hard.
It would be too big.
He is putting it aside...
and adding the chilli sauce on it.
You can spread it and eat it.
- It's made with grilled chilli. - That looks good.
- The chilli is grilled too. - That looks good.
Followers would like it...
if I eat this kind of pretty food in an appetizing way...
and upload the video clip.
- So it is not dispersed. - With a spoon.
(Still plenty though it's cut in half)
- He is about to eat it now. - This looks good enough.
- The taste is important too. - Right.
(It's only a mouthful for a 100kg anchor.)
He's eating so well. Great.
(Amazed)
He is amazed already.
(Marvelling)
How does it taste?
- Is it good? - He looked at the chef.
It's the real deal.
- Is it - Yes.
I think tasting this food...
will increase 50,000 followers.
(It's so good that it could increase 50,000 followers.)
Do the patties, cheese, and onions go well...
with each other?
They not only go well with each other,
but they became one already.
(The ingredients became one already.)
What about the chilli sauce? What kind of role does it play?
The chilli sauce.
The chilli sauce gets rid of the greasiness...
the meat may have.
- I knew it. - That sauce is necessary.
Without the chilli sauce,
it might be a little greasy.
He is taking another bite.
Look at the meat juice oozing out.
(The meat juice is oozing out.)
That looks so good.
(Marvelling)
- Is the second bite also good? - Yes, it is.
(The second bite is also good.)
Will you try the fried onions?
The fried onions look nice too.
- The batter is still on it. - That looks really good.
- The batter comes off easily. - They're fried so well.
We were worried about it.
(Amazed)
He fried them really well.
(Taking a bite of big fried onion.)
Does it go well with the sauce?
(Nodding)
I get to keep eating it.
(It's so good that he gets to keep eating it.)
He's eating it with a lot of sauce.
The sauce must be good.
- How does it taste? - The sauce tastes so fresh.
Does it taste fresh?
It tastes somewhat like the sauce...
for shrimp cutlet, but this is fresher.
And the aftertaste of the onion is so good.
(The sauce tastes fresh thanks to the yogurt.)
He's eating three pieces of onion in a row.
(Eating the third piece.)
- He's eating non stop. - How many pieces is he eating?
He keeps eating it.
No wonder he weighs 100kg.
- I know. - He's eating so well.
Honestly, I don't like...
Western food like burgers...
that much.
But I can't stop eating this.
(You can enjoy it even if you don't like burgers.)
That is amazing.
(Two carps swimming in a black pond)
(Poong's My Fish Is Pretty Good)
- Please take a picture of it too. - Okay.
(Standing up)
They look like real fish in the picture.
It really looks like a fish tank in this picture.
Indeed.
It looks like they're opening their mouths.
- You're right. - This part.
When you look at them from behind,
their tail fins look alive.
- They look as if they were moving. - Right.
- He comes up with great ideas. - He surely is a cartoonist.
Sure he is.
- He certainly is an artist. - It's a piece of art.
Did you originally think of making only two fish?
- Of course. - No more but only two?
The space make it look more beautiful,
so a lot of fish will ruin it.
I can notice they're carps, but what is that on the side?
It's like a small hill...
- where the fish can hide. - It's like water plants.
- Water plants? - Yes, some water plants.
- It looks like paste baits to me. - There are things like that...
in fish tanks.
Paste baits?
- Paste baits. - Kind of.
They also look like two whales passing by an island.
We may call them whales too.
I think the carrot underneath the radish slices is...
a great idea.
- The orange colour is so pretty. - Right.
- They look like gold fish too. - And they also look like carps.
Because these are fish,
I think older people in their 40s, 50s, or 60s...
who like fishing would love it.
If they see this picture on my Instagram,
- I think they'll all follow me. - Exactly.
I'll try the fried rice first...
and taste the radish to see what flavour...
- it adds. - Okay.
Since the radish tastes fresh, it'll enhance the flavour.
He is tasting only the fried rice now.
- Was it pesto? It is... - Yes.
mixed in that fried rice.
I wonder if it would be okay. How does it taste?
I said ground perilla leaves...
- would taste bitter. - Yes.
The bitter taste of the perilla leaves is...
a bit strong for me.
- As you worried. - I mean, for me.
I see.
I had to use it for the colour.
The rice looks like a mossy rock in the water because of that.
It tastes a little bit like moss.
- Does it taste like moss? - Yes.
That's gross.
(He finds it so funny.)
I want to know if the pickled radish slices neutralize the bitterness.
- Please check it out. - Go ahead.
Let me try it now.
- Look at the fins. - Goodness.
- He's eating the whole fish. - Including the fins.
- It looks like a fish. - There you go.
- It looks like sushi. - Is he eating its head first?
- It does look like sushi. - Its head goes in first.
Not the tail but the head first.
In one bite.
(Slurping)
(How will the radish change the taste?)
What kind of role will the radish play?
The pickled radish slices got rid of the bitter taste over 90 percent.
- I see. - They almost got rid of it.
He's eating the second fish.
I think it'll taste fresh because of the radish and the carrot.
- Don't you think so? - I think so too.
I guess it will be also nice just to put the sliced radish on the side.
In fact, I wanted to decorate it some more with the radish,
- but I didn't have enough time. - You didn't.
What do you think G-Dragon would say to see that?
(Thinking for a moment)
- I don't think he will see this. - I doubt that he will see it.
All right. The two carps...
reminded us of a piece of Oriental painting.
I'm not sure, but two carps in Oriental paintings mean something.
- It symbolizes gaining fame. - Right.
Then does it mean that you're going freelance soon?
- It's coming soon. - Soon.
Right. It's coming soon.
Now, it's time to make a choice.
Press one for Sam Kim...

(You're supposed to visit someone's house,)
(but you can have it delivered if it's food.)
