(Episode 30)
The first dish is...
Bird's Nest Tofu Skin Sandwich,
which is bird's nest in between crispy tofu layers.
It's a nice appetizer.
The only chef who makes a creative dish with a bird's nest is...
you, Poong.
Sir.
I'm honored that you're satisfied with it,
but I refuse to hear your compliments.
I'll prepare the next dish.
He's still rude and disrespectful.
That's his charm.
Second dish is...
shark's fin topped with crab roe in soy sauce.
This dish also looks the best.
The best chest should be returned to the best position.
Come back to Finishing Touch.
Sir.
Are you going to reinstate him?
I should've made you the head chef. Sorry for the delay.
Sir. Are you firing me?
Why are you so surprised?
You aren't fired until Poong says yes,
so don't jump to conclusions.
Eat up.
I'll prepare the next dish.
It tastes exquisite.
In order to bring back the hospital clients,
Finishing Touch needs Poong.
Hospital clients have to rush in like before...
so that additional hotel facilities and rooms will be used,
and the hotel will survive.
Do you think I'm doing this because I like Poong?
It's smoky fried pork belly steak.
It'll be easier to cut it with a fork and a knife.
Using a fork and a knife...
to eat Chinese food?
He is ignoring the basics of Chinese cuisine.
Every time I came up with something different,
you focused only on the basics and tradition,
and ignored all my ideas.
Thanks to you, I'm cooking freely and creatively...
on top of the basics of Chinese cuisine.
Try it.
How about making this the next signature dish of Finishing Touch?
Cook whatever dish you want...
in a big kitchen.
I don't want a big kitchen.
You seem really resentful.
I'll apologize.
I love being a chef here.
Is it because of Dal Hui?
I'll break up with her. I was going to.
You son of a witch.
How can you say that?
How dare you?
I have no intention of...
being a head chef at your hotel. So get lost.
What are you doing?
Well...
I guarantee that...
you can never give up the head chef position at the hotel.
You're like that. I know you very well.
Chef Wang. You don't have to pack up yet.
Poong wants to be here still.
(Hungry Wok)
Chae Seol Ja and Im Geok Jeong came to see me.
I can take your Cutting Part...
and Noodle Part away from you if I wanted to.
Don't lay an eye on Finishing Touch's chef position.
Crackdown on your kitchen staff, you punk.
I met with Poong this afternoon.
Did you see him?
He called me all day. I couldn't ignore him.
What did he say?
Did he ask you to come back to work?
Of course.
He bowed down and apologized to me very respectfully.
What did he say?
He said he doesn't like you. He said that would never happen.
Will you go back to work?
I told him I'd think about it.
Good job.
(Seo Poong)
- Where are you? - I'm home.
I'll see you in front of your place.
- In front of my place? - I'm on my way.
No, don't come.
- I'll come to you. - It's okay.
I'm already on the way.
Okay.
(1,000,000 dollars)
(Light and Shadow Loans)
To me,
you're a champion.
My gosh.
She's so cute.
Where are you going?
Hey, are you here?
Yes, I'm here. Come outside.
Okay.
My gosh, she's trying so hard.
Over here.
You startled me.
What are you doing here?
Aren't you happy to see me?
- Let's go. - Okay.
Are you here to reconcile?
I really like men who know how to quickly reconcile...
after a fight.
Should I say hello to your parents since I'm here?
Are you crazy? Don't you know what time it is?
What time is it? What's the matter?
Well, the thing is...
How did your omakase reservation go?
Who was the anonymous customer? Did he like your food?
Have you lived here for long?
Yes, yes.
Let's go now. Where's your car?
It's over there.
My gosh.
- Why won't you let me... - Let's go. Hurry up.
- I want to say hi to your parents. - Next time.
Here's the key to the banquet hall.
Boss, what are you planning to do?
(This hotel is killing small businesses!)
Chil Seong.
Where do you think you're going?
You're not allowed in there.
There's no way you'll give up on the protest rights.
And neither will Mr. Dan.
I'm as quick-witted as the number of cavities I have.
This is 3,000,000 dollars.
3,000,000 dollars.
You should've...
given this to the construction workers...
a long time ago.
That must be your entire fortune.
You have a huge loan to pay back.
Hey, do you want to try taking this from me?
It'll be completely useless for me to go in there without this.
But if you fail to take this from me,
I'm going to go inside, give them this money,
and exchange it for their rights to protest.
What do you say? Do you want to give it a shot?
Look down.
- My goodness. - My gosh.
I took it from you.
Is this the end?
You started it.
I'll, at least, let you walk after I'm done.
since you need to go report the situation to Yong Seung Ryong.
Let's begin.
What are you talking about?
He's all yours.
Crooked.
What's wrong with these guys?
They're all so useless.
Just a second.
My gosh, you jerk.
Didn't I tell you to keep your eyes wide open...
when I'm about to punch you?
You should...
go inside with me and apologize.
- This guy... - Everyone.
I'm sorry.
I heard he made a mess of your office...
and threatened you because of me.
But don't worry. He won't be able to...
threaten you anymore.
I hope you'll forgive him for what he did.
Are you sure you mean it?
I'm not going to sell our protest rights to you.
We had to pay for eating the jajangmyeon and sweet and sour pork.
These punks...
are totally capable of making our company go bankrupt.
So get out of here right now.
Here.
This is 3,000,000 dollars.
- 3,000,000 dollars? - What? 3,000,000 dollars?
- It's 3,000,000 dollars. - Sir.
It's time for you to go back to your family.
You've had enough of this nonsense.
You should go home and have a homemade meal.
Just take it.
- Come on. - Just take it.
- You should take it. - Hurry up.
- No, we can't. - My gosh.
Sir.
I'll pay you the construction fee.
Instead, you just need to sign the contract...
saying that you'll hand over your rights to protest.
My gosh.
I met Ms. Jin earlier...
and apologized.
I asked her to come back to work starting from tomorrow.
Really? Is she going to come to work tomorrow?
I'm not sure.
But I should make sure she does.
She must really hate me.
What am I supposed to do?
Stop the car.
What should I do?
Let me know what I should do.
Do you want to impress her?
- Yes. - Why?
You told me...
that the employees matter more than the customers.
I know. And it's true.
But you don't need to try to impress her.
Just treat everyone like you always do.
She's the one who's biased.
She should be open, but she only sees what she wants to see.
She only perceives the world the way she wants to.
Are you badmouthing her right now?
It's true that she also has a problem. Don't you think?
She's pretty, and she's never had to work a day in her life.
That's why she can't understand anything properly in the kitchen,
and it's so frustrating to see her work so slow.
She probably doesn't feel frustrated at all,
but the person talking to her does.
She's good at waiting tables.
But when it comes to working in the kitchen, she's a disaster.
You don't know how many dishes she broke...
while washing the dishes because she used too much detergent.
I bet she can't even peel a pear all by herself.
On top of that, she ruined...
so many rubber gloves while washing knives.
She can't ever wash anything without wearing any rubber gloves.
She even wears them when she washes...
one pair of chopsticks because she doesn't want to ruin her hands.
She probably can't even cook anything.
It seemed like she couldn't cook at all.
I bet she's never even cooked a single meal for her family.
Are you badmouthing her?
Yes.
Aren't I good at it?
If I...
become a chef at Finishing Touch,
will the kitchen staff look at me differently?
Why do you say that?
Do you want to work there?
I'm not sure.
Let's go have ramyeon.
- Do you want ramyeon? - Yes.
I'll deal with him first,
then I'll talk to you.
Did you want to see me?
Who is...
that man?
Don't mind him. He's none of your business.
Are you playing me?
Are you toying with me because I like you?
You are the one who asked me to come.
Then you told me to leave.
Aren't you the one who toyed with me?
What?
After that day,
do you know how many times I stood at the crosswalk?
You humiliated me in front of Poong.
Are you happy?
I'm not sure if I'm mad because I lost to him...
or because he is next to you.
I don't know!
How dare you yell at her?
She's my Cutting Part.
She's the only one in the world.
Seol Ja is the most amazing person to me.
How dare you? How dare you yell at her?
Who are you?
Do you like Seol Ja?
Are you two dating?
Yes, I like her. We're going to date.
She's my woman. So...
if you linger around her again, I'll kill you.
You'll be dead, all right?
Stop it. I didn't call you to do this.
Seol Ja. Since you've been working at a local restaurant,
you stoop to that level.
You're hanging out with a thug.
You jerk.
Hey.
- You punk. - Stop it.
It's the police. Stop it.
- Where? - Goodness.
Stop. I... I can't run anymore.
Let's stop.
You're the first woman to kiss me first.
Don't cut me off like that.
Let's date greasily.
What do you mean by greasily?
I'm saying, let's date instinctively.
I don't have a house or a car, but you never know.
I might actually have something.
I asked...
to see you to say this.
Let's...
just follow our hearts and date.
Greasily.
(Agreement to Transfer Protest Rights)
(Creditor Du Chil Seong)
Ramyeon is the best snack when drinking soju.
Here.
I'm sorry I can't buy you expensive food.
Why...
do you like me?
Don't ask me that. Do I have to say it?
Have you dated a lot of women?
I don't think I've ever received love.
Have you ever loved another?
I won't love anyone else.
That's good.
Who is it at this hour?
We better hide quickly,
If someone finds out, I'm dead.
Put this away.
- I'll do it. - No, I'll do it.
Why is there a soju?
Did someone drink it?
Oh, no.
Anyway.
What if they find out?
But we just started dating.
If you had a house, we could've gone to your house.
I can't believe we have to hide back here.
I'm 40. I don't want to walk on eggshells when I'm dating.
Isn't it nice and thrilling?
Isn't this why you date?
Now that I've talked about Jin Jeong Hae,
do you want to hear about Cutting Part?
You can't stop now, can you?
This is why a boss and a kitchen staff shouldn't date.
Because she would tell on everyone.
What did she just say?
Did she just say date?
No, she said hate. Didn't she?
I don't think there's anything bad to say about Seol Ja.
She's an amazing Cutting Part.
She has the best skills.
She acts all tough, but she can't even...
look at the crab's eyes when she's cutting it.
She can't eat whelk because she's scared of it.
She says she has erotic thoughts when she's cutting stuff.
It's ready. Let's eat.
- Noodle Part is... - You can stop now.
Why? I have to be fair.
When Geok Jeong is kneading,
he looks at female customers a lot.
Sometimes the noodles come out uneven...
because he's looking at the girls.
Unbelievable. He looks like he's not interested in women.
Of course he is.
Do you want kimchi?
- Is it in the fridge? - I'll go get it.
Okay.
Let's see.
Kimchi and ramyeon go perfect together.
- That's right. - Yes.
Where is kimchi?
Goodness.
What's this?
Let's stay here for a bit.
Who left this here without finishing it?
- It's still hot. - What?
The noodles aren't even soggy yet.
It must've been Maeng Dal and Chil Seong.
Chefs usually don't...
leave their mess behind like this.
They wouldn't come in here, would they?
Someone must've been here
Chef Poong's back is mine.
Should we just walk out? We didn't have to hide.
Even if...
all the kitchen staff hates you,
I love you.
I...
know everything.
Jin Jeong Hae, Chae Seol Ja,
Im Geok Jeong, and you.
I know that you're a family that live in the same house.
I know that you all...
deceived me from the beginning and got hired here.
I know everything.
(Wok of Love)
Sae Woo and I love each other.
Are you crazy?
How did you become so brave all of a sudden?
I suggested a cook off and wagered Finishing Touch.
3 days from now, at 11am.
With 1 Fire Part and 1 Cutting Part. 3 people in a team.
You and Seol Ja have to be there.
If you leave Poong's kitchen, you have to leave this house.
Please come. I beg you.
