[ Episode 25 ]
This reminds me of that day
that day we said let's have an affair.
Like this?
♫ Did I long for you this much? ♫
I...
like you.
Much more than Hyung.
I can't stop it. I can't fold.
I'm a bad guy.
♫ I miss you so much. ♫
So...
just in case...
You can't dislike me.
♫ Even the way I talked that I couldn't understand ♫
♫ Was it all you? ♫
♫ Everyday, from the moment I open my eyes to the moment I close them. ♫
♫ I got overwhelmed by your thoughts that wash over me ♫
♫ Sometimes it makes me collapse ♫
♫ When? When will I grow numb to this? ♫
♫ The moment you took your eyes off me, the moment you left ♫
♫ Everyday, my tears won't leave me ♫
♫ Maybe that's why I stopped you ♫
♫ and ran to you instead. ♫
What do we do now?
Are you...
a thug or knife handler?
I'm...
both.
You're not afraid of a knife.
You are already qualified halfway to be a knife handler.
To show off your knife skills,
if your right hand moves separately from the left,
you'll lose your fingers.
Why are you like this to me all of a sudden?
Hold this.
Right and left hands
have to be at the same level.
The right hand holding the knife has to trust the left hand
and follow its lead.
I really like you.
Me, too.
What do we do?
There's nothing wrong when we like each other, right?
What's the problem?
Just... everything all of a sudden.
All of a sudden...
you say you like me.
Don't be afraid.
I'll make sure you don't get scared.
From now on,
I'll love you more.
I won't disappear from you all of a sudden one day.
Even if I can't answer other calls,
I'll always answer your call.
I won't let you get hurt again.
That's the reason why I hesitated.
I can't say this unless I'm sure of myself.
The marriages were...
difficult for both of us.
The marriages were difficult. For both of us.
Let's erase them now.
As we...
love each other?
The Chinese cleaver's top, mid,
the tip of the knife, mid part, and end tip functions are all different.
For onions used for spicy seafood noodles,
the knife has to move fast.
Using the midsection of the knife, you have to pound on it.
Try.
For the black bean noodles, use the back tip of the knife.
Don't raise the knife too high, but glide your knife away from you.
You keep the same distance and size.
Like this.
You're doing a good job.
And for the tip of a knife,
you need to have a sensitive touch.
To keep the texture of this small portion,
you use the tip to cut quickly.
What are you looking?
Look at your left hand.
Only look at your knife!
When you use a knife, trust your left hand.
For a fire handler, a ladle trusts the wok.
For the knife handler, the right hand trusts the left hand and follows it.
Keep that in mind.
Keep it light.
Good job.
Do it again.
Hey, Dim Sum.
Hey, Dim Sum!
Aigoo.
Why don't you sleep?
You have something on your mind and can't sleep, huh?
Geez.
It's a sleepless night.
Dim Sum, you like milk, huh?
You want to drink a latte with mommy?
What are you doing not sleeping?
Would you like to drink with me?
Why are you drinking coffee at this hour?
I don't think I can sleep tonight.
Want me to make you something?
No.
Here.
Thank you.
Earlier...
you...
our gum granny...
moth...
mother...
whatever...
you made black bean noodles for her?
Thanks.
Is she a gum granny or mother?
I don't know. I don't know.
Is it hard to call her mom?
I've never called anyone that.
Then, you can try calling her that.
I don't want to.
Here, repeat after me.
I'll sleep now.
Mother.
- You, go to bed, too. - Mom!
Mom.
My parents passed away when I was young.
I didn't get to say that much either.
Thanks to you, let me say that a lot. Mom, huh?
Without a mom, you can't say that even if you want to.
Don't save it. Call her as much as you can.
Poong.
Huh?
The kitten in front of our restaurant.
I'm his mom. Sae Woo is his dad.
So, we're a couple.
Sae Woo called me...
"Dim Sum's mom."
She said we'll raise the kitten together.
She said let's be a good mom and dad to the kitten.
Good for you.
Hey, Poong.
Yeah.
When Sae Woo called me,
"Dim Sum's mom" earlier,
my heart still had this hole in my heart.
She rejected me twice already.
But I think I still have feelings for her.
You know the expiration date on can food?
Just like the expiration date on can food,
if someone can tell me that my heart is no good...
That I have to throw it away because it went bad.
I wish I can throw it away like that.
Dim Sum.
That kitten's name is Dim Sum.
Dim Sum.
Hyung.
Yeah?
I have something to say to you, Hyung.
Honestly,
I wore your underwear, Hyungnim.
Did you get to shop?
Yeah.
- Aren't you leaving? - Sleeping over tonight.
Go to sleep.
You said you have something to tell me. What is it?
Nothing.
I'll wash up first.
Okay.
[ Dan Sae Woo ]
- Hi. - I was curious to see if you'd answer my call.
Oh, yeah?
This is our first phone call.
- That's right. - Were you sleeping?
- No. - Then what are you doing?
I'm talking to you on the phone as I'm brushing my teeth.
Are you naked?
- Yes. - Completely naked?
Yes, completely naked.
I was just kidding.
- Hey, Sae Woo. - Yeah?
I'll tell Hyung.
That I like you.
That's okay, right?
Yeah.
I understand.
Goodnight.
- Goodnight. - Okay.
Geez.
This eye is bruised and looks like a crushed raisin.
And your nose is ugly and your lips are so-so.
But this eye looks like an almond which I like.
- Do you like almonds? - Yeah.
How about tofu?
I like tofu better than rice.
Then I'll make spicy and sweet almonds for you.
I'll make spicy and sweet almond for you. Come a little early.
♫ It’s a strange feeling ♫
It's almond tofu.
- Did you sleep well? - Yeah.
♫ Just like a fire, here and there ♫
♫ My heart will fly every directions ♫
Since this is for breakfast, eat as almond tofu instead of fried tofu.
I really like tofu.
♫ I don't know how you would react ♫
Making tofu with almond is so delicious. It's very nutty.
♫ You’re shaking up my once closed heart ♫
♫ Can't even cool down ♫
♫ We’re like fire on a frying pan ♫
Isn't it good?
♫ We’re like fire on a frying pan ♫
♫ Though it’ll take long for it to get hot ♫
I must be the only woman who eats delicious fresh tofu in the morning.
♫ It'll never cool down, it’ll be hot with you ♫
♫ It'll turn your heart, it’ll be hot with you ♫
♫ Boil down my heart and grill it with love ♫
♫ With you, the beautiful you ♫
Because it wasn't fried, it's simple and nutty tasting to the end.
♫ We're like fire on a frying pan ♫
♫ Though it'll take long for it to get hot ♫
♫ Once love starts ♫
I'll...
introduce you to my family.
Okay.
♫ With you ♫
Sure.
♫ the beautiful you ♫
This is so good.
Chef.
Is it true that CEO Yong will call the hospital director
to bring back our reservation for 100 people?
That was our reservation from the beginning.
For more than 10 years, they came here for the banquet every month!
Damn it!
Hyungnim. The reservation at Poong's restaurant...
Is it your plan to make that a no-show?
Hyungnim, they competed fair and square and Poong hyungnim won.
Canceling is bad enough but a no-show?
They probably prepared all the ingredients and not receiving any customers that day.
They'd be losing too much money.
Whose side are you on?
I'm not taking sides, but...
A no-show is...
Didn't you hear that if we struggle, the entire hotel will struggle?
Most of our customers are from Tae Yang Hospital.
And if they start going to Poong's restaurant?
If it's delicious? If it's...
cheaper and better tasting than ours?
You and I have to pack up, too.
Wake up.
I'm back, Hyungnim.
I put the kitchen crew's salary inside the envelopes.
It's their first salary.
I'll direct deposit starting next month.
Okay.
Are you waiting for someone?
No.
Your mother hasn't come by since that day.
I cleaned so many shrimps.
I feel like shrimps will come to clean out my guts in my dream.
Here are shrimps and vegetables for spicy and sweet shrimps.
Okay, service!
Service!
- Chi Soo and Dong Sik, you quickly take them out. - Yes, Chef.
Chef!
Customers who tasted All-Parts Shrimp are coming back, right?
There are many Dae Tang Bao orders.
That must be.
Black bean noodles and sweet and sour pork are basics for a Chinese restaurant.
Since 100 guests from the hospital ordered those dishes,
if they like them and spread the word, then it'll be daebak, right?
There are thousands of workers at the hospital.
So, we'll hit daebak for sure, right?
Let's talk after the banquet.
Chef Poong, you're too serious.
Too much.
- Service! - Service!
I'll take out the dry sweet and spicy shrimp.
Wait a minute, Ahjumma.
How many times did you confuse spicy and sweet shrimp with dry sweet and spicy shrimp?
You switched spicy and sweet shrimp and spicy and sweet chicken, too.
You took them to the wrong tables.
Those dishes taste best when they're taken to the customers right away.
While the dishes go from table to table checking,
you're missing the timing for optimal taste.
The sauces are all similar.
Similar? Only their colors are the same.
One is dry sauce and the other one is wet sauce.
- Um, well... - The kitchen and the hall are not separate spaces.
We should work like one family...
We have to breathe together for us to serve great dishes.
The completion of delicious cuisine is not in the kitchen but in serving. Understand?
Yes, Chef.
Take this to table five. Take it. No!
I'll make it again. It's already past the best time to eat.
This shows customers that our kitchen is not running smoothly. Do you understand?
Go to table seven and let them know that the food will be late.
Yes, Chef. For now...
No, look at this.
Because of a glitch at one table,
the taste and timing of all other tables are affected.
Do you see that?
Even though you didn't get my permission, you started
serving the hall instead of washing dishes.
I thought I'd let you do that if that's what you want.
If you can't serve right,
you can come back to the kitchen doing dishes again.
If you really don't like the kitchen, then you can leave, too.
Please make yourself clear.
Are you firing me right now?
I'm telling you...
that being fired is a possibility if you can't do your job.
Take this away.
Platters!
[ Hungry Wok ]
[ Break Time ]
Where...
did she go without me?
Please give me the most popular sandwich from here.
Please pick vegetables and sauce.
- Add avocados please. - All right.
Avocados.
I'm afraid that he'll come out in my dream.
Chef Poong...
really doesn't like you, Madam.
Are you okay, Mom?
She brought customers from outside.
She changed our image from a restaurant run by thugs to a pretty, classy lady serving.
It's all Madam's work.
Chef Poong only picks on the weak area.
How can he embarrass her like that?
Mom, here is your favorite, avocados.
You said eating them makes you feel better.
Avocado?
This looks good.
So...
Chef Poong...
I'm losing my appetite.
Don't even talk about Chef Poong.
Where did she go?
Yeah, Bo Ra?
Hyungnim, I'm telling you this just in case.
Okay.
I'll check.
- Yes, Chef! - Yes, Nurse.
Is there...
any possibility of canceling the reservation?
Excuse me? What are you talking about?
That won't happen.
You won the competition.
Did someone say something?
No, it's nothing.
Then I'll see you that day.
Did you eat...
It's hot, huh?
Do you want to go get some ice cream?
Be quiet.
They can hear us from outside.
- Okay, break everything. - Don't smile.
Break, break, continue to break, even the restaurant.
Don't smile! Gosh!
Don't smile! Gosh?
You come here.
I said don't smile!
Looks like they're fighting.
Because of the talk of firing you,
the Miss probably can't hold back and is saying something to him.
Look at him smiling
when Sae Woo is talking to him.
I guess Sae Woo makes him smile?
Does he like Sae Woo?
The way he treated Sae Woo was
far worse than the way he treats you.
That's true.
I can't even smile when we're together?
Don't smile.
Why do I have to?
Why do I have to do that?
Okay.
Does Chef Poong like you?
I said does Chef Poong like you?
- No way, Mom. - Why does he smile at you then?
Can't he smile?
A person can smile looking at a person.
I have to go.
Isn't Chef Poong married?
He's divorced.
Just in case... in whatever case may be...
I can't allow Chef Poong to like you.
When your dad is released,
you have to meet someone compatible to your level.
Just because you work at a place like this,
you can't develop any feelings toward a guy like him.
No.
You just quit working here.
Gosh, I don't like Chef Poong.
Chef Poong doesn't even see me as a woman.
Just in case. I'm saying just in case.
One in a million odds, I'd hate that.
Him being a hotel chef is history.
He's having a hard time even paying us.
Do you know why she divorced him?
He doesn't even have a house.
He sleeps here half the time.
No, way. There's no way... someone like Chef Poong...
Does he even talk nicely?
How dare he?
It is true. How dare he?
- How dare? - That is true, too.
Mommy!
What are you guys doing here?
Oh, it's nothing.
We're on our way out.
Leave it.
I'll take them out.
I'll take them.
No, it's nothing.
See you tomorrow.
Let's go home together starting today.
The banquet is tomorrow, so you should go home early, too.
