(Kang's Kitchen 2)
(On the 1st day, Kang's Kitchen began with just 3 dishes.)
(But the menu got diversified.)
(New dish 1. Ice kkotdongsim)
(Perhaps thanks to this dish, many child customers visited.)
(Where will you stick it?)
(Will you stick it on me?)
(I like you.)
I hope you get a pretty girlfriend.
(He's too shy to talk.)
(Even adults found it good.)
(He scraped the bowl and ate the remaining bit.)
(Last night, P.O and Ho Dong came back to the kitchen.)
(They worked hard to come up with a new dish...)
(that's perfect for the weather as it gets hotter by day.)
(They prayed it to be a success.)
(New dish 2. Niga garak cold guksu)
(However, when it was first revealed,)
(the weather was unusually bad.)
Don't be surprised.
(Thanks to the unpredictable weather,)
(the customers only ordered warm noodles.)
(Steaming)
(Boss Kang wasn't fine.)
(Boss Kang is steaming too. He's slowly getting anxious.)
(This is what happened until the last episode.)
(Current situation)
(The wind is still strong.)
- Mr. Kang, - Yes?
on a cool day like this,
I crave for cold guksu.
(He's craving for cold guksu.)
When cold wind blows, right?
(Cold wind blows coldly)
I should cook cold guksu for my parents.
I should get my parents an air conditioner since it's cold.
(They are very devoted sons.)
Team Tteokbokki, whatever it may be,
if you need a favor... Don't hesitate to say it.
Say it to Su Geun.
- Okay. - Okay.
I always make sure the chefs can focus on cooking.
(Lee Su Geun, nagging robot, adviser of the kitchen)
Mr. Kang.
(Su Geun always gives advice to the chefs.)
- Mr. Kang. - Yes?
Making it look nice is great,
but 80 percent of the scallions...
put on top of niga garak guksu comes back unfinished.
Too much scallions get left unfinished.
So I should put less scallions.
- Yes. Less scallions. - You can reduce it a little bit.
- It's filled with scallions. - Okay.
I spent hours chopping those. How can you...
All right. I admit to my fault.
- You have the right to be upset. - Right.
For five minutes...
- Scallions... - What?
What would he do for five minutes?
Can I walk in the pine forest for five minutes?
Su Geun can talk to me informally for five minutes.
(Su Geun is allowed to talk informally to him for 5 minutes.)
Five minutes. Okay?
Do you think that makes sense?
- Did you just do it? - No.
(Lee Su Geun, born in 1975)
It's because you made that face.
I was smiling.
(Let's smile.)
- Size M for Table 5. - Size M for Table 5.
- Watch your pronunciation. - All right.
- Su Geun. - Yes?
I'd appreciate it if you grind the sesame seeds when you have time.
What?
I'd appreciate it if you grind the sesame seeds when you have time.
- The sesame seeds. - Yes. Grind them.
- You should... You should have... - A lot go into this, you see.
You should have ground a lot ahead of time.
- You can just bring it to me. - I will do it for you.
- I will... - Do it somewhere else and bring it.
I have to use this to grind them. How can I do it elsewhere?
Don't you mean I should pour this onto another container...
and use it to grind some more?
That's what you mean, right?
(Pounding sesame seeds)
This is difficult too.
Mr. Kang,
still, you shouldn't skimp on ground sesame seeds.
It smells so aromatic.
(Let's pay attention to Jae Hyeon.)
They become more savory when they are ground.
- Right? That's why you grind them. - Right.
That's right, sir.
Wait. I made a mistake.
I made another one.
It's fine. You can leave it and do something else.
Should we eat this?
When I said "Size M",
I got so shocked.
(The letter M shocked him.)
I thought I should do better this time.
We should eat this.
(It's minus 6.2 dollars from today's sales.)
My gosh.
- How could I say, "This is Size M." - This is a tiring job too.
(It's killing him.)
Skimp on sesame seeds.
I told you not to skimp on them, but forget about that.
(Since our country doesn't produce a drop of oil,)
(we have to skimp on sesame seeds.)
Thank you so much.
You are so good, Su Geun.
Are you waiting for the noodles?
I told you to...
lift up the sesame seed bowl so you won't spill them.
Why do you always grab it from the table and move it?
It's a performance.
(He's the king of nagging.)
What kind of a performance is that?
(This time, it's cold guksu loaded with sesame seeds.)
Great.
You forgot the seaweed flakes.
(He got rejected at the door.)
You need to focus.
How can I be the only one to spot those things?
(Laughing)
It's a never-ending joy.
(Laughing)
(On the outside...)
(It's a strike.)
(When wind blows and blows my body)
(It's a perfect song choice.)
("My Mind to You" by Kim Jeong Soo and Express Train)
Wouldn't it be too cold for cold guksu?
It was so clear yesterday, but it's so windy right now.
Yesterday was like summer, and today is like winter.
The cheese isn't melting because it's windy.
(Even the cheese is melting slowly.)
- Here's water for you. - Thank you.
Hello. Welcome.
The dining hall is running too smoothly.
(According to MINO and Young Seok,)
(you always have to watch your mouth on a variety show.)
It's as if everyone's become so used to their jobs.
I think we need to expand.
(Is that why?)
We can separate the tables.
(Instead of expanding,)
(Ji Won increased the number of tables.)
(The beginning)
What happened to the tables?
Let's think of them as 1, 2, 3, 4. Like that.
That's 7 and 8.
We have one more.
(Development)
- 5M. - 5M.
- 5M. - Table 5.
- 1, 2, 3. - How did I number the tables?
You ordered medium size tteokbokki, right?
- Tteokbokki with quatro fries. - Yes.
That's Table 5. That one is Table 5.
(Crisis)
Niga garak guksu for Table Five.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Niga garak guksu for Table Five.
Niga garak guksu.
- We didn't order noodles. - Sorry.
- Which table? Table 7? - Table 5.
Table Five.
(Which one is Table 5?)
- Is it... - We ordered it.
- Right. - There.
Niga garak guksu.
This is jjajang tteokbokki for Table Seven, right?
We didn't order jjajang tteokbokki.
You didn't order jjajang tteokbokki?
- Not jjajang tteokbokki. - No.
(In this situation, find out the number of each table, 4 points)
(Not Table 7. Is it Table 5? Not Table 5.)
(Yes. It's a mess.)
(Watch these cute dogs and cool your head.)
(This guy will tell you the answer anyway.)
Table Five?
(They check the order slips again.)
(Table 5 ordered 3 dishes.)
I am sorry. I will take the order.
One M-size tteokbokki with quatro fries.
1 niga garak guksu. And 1 kimchi fried rice.
1 kimchi fried rice. 3 dishes, right?
1 M-size tteokbokki, 1 guksu, and 1 Coke.
(That's how the order was placed.)
(Let's look at the order slip.)
(Table 8 : 1 M-size tteokbokki with quatro fries, 1 niga garak guksu,)
(and 1 soft drink)
(In the end, this is not how the tables are numbered.)
(This is the right number for the tables.)
I must've written Table 8 as Table 5. That one is Table 5.
(Ho Dong's pride, his head, blocks our view.)
Why did I write that table as Table 5?
(Laughing)
- Gosh... - Is it a problem?
(Climax)
(Afraid that he will still make a mistake...)
Who ordered jjajang tteokbokki?
- Here's your jjajang tteokbokki. - Thank you.
(He notices what has been going on.)
I skipped 6 and moved onto 7 and 8.
Like that.
(Ending)
I... I quit, boss.
- What? - I quit.
Su Geun, take over.
- He's quitting. - My gosh.
- What? - He's quitting.
I made a big mistake, and two tables got mixed up.
It's all right.
Two tables what?
(Mr. Ahn Who Can't Hear)
We got 1 more table, and 2 tables merged.
You completely lost it a while ago, didn't you?
(Because of the mixed up orders, Table 5 waited for...)
(garak guksu for a long time.)
- Why don't you go serve it? - I should serve it?
It's these two.
Have you been just waiting for this?
- Yes. - My goodness.
Our orders got mixed up.
(Feeling sorry...)
These noodles are different from the thin noodles you usually get.
- Right. - These are different.
If it's bad, tell me so. Try it.
(That's an unreasonable request.)
- Thank you. - Eat the noodles. I'll watch.
(It's the most pressuring meal time they've ever had.)
Tell me if they are bad. I am confident about the noodles.
(He's brought back.)
It's like I had a dream.
(Ho Dong safely returned to the kitchen.)
It feels strange.
(They feel at ease.)
(It's the chatty Ho Dong's niga garak guksu, cooked with love.)
(She loves it.)
It's delicious.
- It's delicious, isn't it? - It is.
The noodles are really different.
They are neither kalguksu noodles nor udon noodles.
(Enjoy the noodles in the relaxed atmosphere.)
(Meanwhile, MINO starts making the dessert.)
Can you make one more, MINO?
- Two ice creams? - Yes.
Okay.
(Ji Won ordered ice kkotdongsim.)
I wanted to give them one since the food was served so late.
I made a mistake, so I want to give it to them for free.
Should we do that?
(Ji Won has been feeling bad about his mistake.)
- You can have this. - Thank you.
(He gives them ice kkotdongsim for free.)
I am sorry.
Thank you.
You should work on Table Four's orders.
I don't have pans for the M-size tteokbokki.
It's because we served seven of them.
We only have seven of those pans.
But seven pans are sufficient, you see?
Why would you say such a thing, Jae Hyeon?
There are only seven tables.
(She raises her hand.)
- Yes? - One more niga garak guksu, please.
One more niga garak guksu. All right.
One more niga garak guksu.
Thank you for the additional order.
Everyone else should work harder.
Your food is losing to the noodles.
People might think this restaurant is famous for noodles.
Don't tease me.
I am not that good.
(Right.)
Every man thinks from his perspective.
(Going sulky)
(It's a combination of flavors we all know.)
- Hello. - Did you order one more of it?
- This. - It moved me.
Look how nervous I am. My goodness. It's hot.
- Thank you. - We will enjoy it.
(They taste the broth first.)
(He just drinks it out of the bowl.)
(You are wasting electricity.)
It's overheated.
Let's save electricity.
Did you say "climax"?
What did you say? I didn't hear it.
"Climax".
(Kang's Kitchen reaches a climax all the time.)
Climax?
Su Geun, do you need help with washing the dishes?
Can you put this outside?
- They need to be washed outside. - Should I move these outside?
It'd be helpful if you wash the cups outside.
If you don't want to do it, just don't do it.
- Let me do it. - Yes.
You don't have to show it.
I nearly broke the cups. Thank goodness I didn't.
But that's plastic.
(Lonely)
(He makes patbingsu while singing.)
(He puts golden spoons on top.)
(Looking very pleased, he delivers it.)
- Here's nurungji patbingsu. - Thank you.
We made everything, except for the glass.
- We made the dough and the tuile. - That's incredible.
(I am so happy.)
- This is made with love. - I know.
(She scraps the bottom.)
(She tries a mouthful.)
(She's amazed.)
The bottom is delicious. Look at the bottom.
(He aggressively takes a look.)
- What do you think? - It's really good.
(He looks very happy.)
- How's the bingsu? - It's really good.
It's really good.
We made everything except for the bowl.
We baked the cookies ourselves too.
(They finished everything.)
(Wiping the table)
(They clean the table and get up.)
Have a great day. You are actually tall when you stand up.
When you were sitting down, I didn't know.
It's 30...
Wait. What's up with 15 cents?
- 15? - It ended with 15 cents.
It's a tip.
It's 31.5 dollars.
- Congratulations on your wedding. - Thank you.
(The break time begins.)
The customers became friends with each other too.
They told each other to enjoy their meal.
- What's going on? - Welcome. Customers are coming in.
- It's a group. - Are you a group?
The customers became friends with each other too.
They told each other to enjoy their meal.
What's going on?
Welcome. Customers are coming in.
- It's a group. - Are you a group?
Kitchen!
12.
(They are the headquarter staffs who came to change the memory cards.)
They surprised me.
They are 12.
(They have to change 48 memory cards in 10 minutes.)
They surprised me.
I am so happy.
I am really good right now. I am so happy.
(This is him being happy.)
(Jae Hyeon, if you are confined against your will, wave a carrot.)
(He's feeling the wind.)
(No matter how cold it is, I want to be alone.)
I should start frying.
(He makes a last call before the work begins.)
Yes, Grandma.
I am working.
I am in Gyeongju.
Yes.
Okay.
(It feels like we can hear his grandmother.)
- Su Geun. - Yes?
- Coffee. - MINO.
Let's drink some iced coffee to cheer up.
I can do it. I can do it.
I just got confused.
I was so driven by passion that I thoughtlessly moved the tables.
I shouldn't do that next time.
Customers are coming in. Get ready.
I am not ready yet.
Welcome.
(Customers enter right away.)
Are you four?
- Welcome. - Welcome.
(These tables for 2 confused Ji Won.)
(He turns them back into tables for 4.)
(More customers start arriving.)
- Do you like spicy food? - Yes.
Please make it extra spicy.
It's very spicy.
- It's fine. - It nearly killed me.
- It's fine. - Really? You're that good.
I think you should give it a go. You will be fine.
It's served with fries.
- This is the first order. - Thank you.
Large size tteokbokki with quatro fries.
Large size?
It's been a long time. A long, long time.
Is it a large size?
They are four.
I will make it delicious. Thank you.
That's what you must do, you know.
(Laughing)
- Thank you. - Isn't it what he must do?
Right. Were you going to make it taste bad?
(Laughing)
Please talk quietly so the people from the headquarters won't hear it.
Cheer up, Mr. Kitchen.
(Mr. Kitchen works hard again.)
(He skillfully makes nice long noodles.)
(Although we can't see it well, he prepares to cook garak guksu.)
(We get to see L-size tteokbokki with quatro fries again.)
(It's substantial.)
(The quatro fries are excited.)
(It's frying away.)
(The spicy tteokbokki is boiling away too.)
It feels like...
this show is about introducing a popular restaurant.
It's like it's being featured as a popular restaurant.
We actually look like we work here.
(They actually look like they work here.)
Every restaurant has a story.
- What? - Every restaurant has a story.
I know.
Before opening this restaurant, what went wrong?
(Now, Mr. Kang Ho Dong is making noodles in Gyeongju.)
I heard you used to be a sought-after TV personality.
I heard you beat a producer.
I beat a producer?
You beat the producer you used to work with.
(So he quit being on TV and opened a guksu restaurant.)
It must've happened in Gyeongju.
(It happened in Gyeongju.)
- We used to get along just fine. - Right.
But I just lost control at that moment.
I heard you beat him badly.
Right.

Yes. It looks really ugly, doesn't it? It looks really bad.
It's got blue lips too. It's strange, isn't it?

(He's very mean to Mysterious.)
One medium size tteokbokki with quatro fries...
and Kimchi Fried Rice Is Blossoming.
The order can't be placed when you say it like that.
Kimchi Fried Rice Is Blossoming
You have to say it clearly.
Ice kkotdongsim is...
meat-flavored ice cream.
Right.
I am just kidding.
It's ice cream that brings back your childhood innocence.
We are selling cold guksu for the first time today. It's good.
Can we order a lot?
- Of course. - Perhaps Ho Dong...
- will get upset. - And kimchi fried rice.
He's gone sulky because guksu isn't selling too well.
You can order 10 cold guksu.
Can we order one more of this?
What is that? Kimchi fried rice?

The large size is for four people.
(A supporter appears.)
The medium size is for two people.

You need water. Yes?
Can we order?
Did I not even give you the menu board?
What was I thinking?
- Thank you. - I'll come and get the order.

It would've been much more touching if you had eaten the bowl.
Thank you.

(He took it out.)
(Then puts it back in.)
Chairman Kang?
(Did he get promoted?)
- What is it? - Have a spoonful of this.
- You need some energy. - Is it for us?
I think you should hurry up with the cold guksu.
I'm doing it right now.
- They've been waiting for so long. - It's right on time.
Gosh, this could have been bad.
Thank you. It's right on time.
(Just when the noodles are ready,)
(Ho Dong takes out the broth for cold guksu.)
Is it ready?
It's in a great condition.
(Let's take a moment to look at this.)
(He takes out the noodles with an elegant move...)
(then washes the noodles in cold water.)
Cold guksu will be ready soon.
(It's far from being ready.)
(After cooling down the noodles enough,)
(pour the cold broth into a bowl...)
(Keep pouring.)
(And add a handful of noodles with pride into the bowl.)
Yes.
To finish up...
(He adds the sauce bit by bit.)
(Guksu is finally ready after such time and effort went in.)
Niga garak cold guksu is ready for Table One.
Say it properly. The customers are not responding.
Niga garak cold guksu.
Enjoy. Table one.
They don't like it.
(It doesn't hype up the mood.)
They don't like it.
(I'm so embarrassed that my face is about to burst.)
Are you embarrassed?
This is today's new menu.
- Wow, it's cold guksu. - It's here.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(They will clean the bowl in a moment.)
I'll make a tasty bowl of niga garak guksu...
for Table One.
- For Table One? - Yes.
- It's just been served. - That was warm guksu.
(What they were served was cold guksu.)
I'll make a warm bowl of guksu in a moment.
Table two needs something right now.
Please give something to Table Two.
- Is that so? Warm guksu? - Yes.
Why don't you make two portions at once?
They are both warm guksu.
It'll take some... Okay.
Can't I make it a little later?
(No.)
(If there's no food on the table, Team Hall gets anxious.)
What shall I help you with?
For Table Two...
- What? - Entertain them.
- Hey. - What?
- What is it? - Cheese rice for Table Two.
- For Table Two? - Yes.
- Thank you. - I mean, kimchi fried rice.
- Is that a new menu? - No.
Thank you for your patience. Here's kimchi fried rice.
You should do this before you eat.
(Kimchi fried rice...)
(Is blossoming.)
Thank you.
(Ho Dong has completed his two bowls of guksu.)
Here it goes. Which table is this for?
- It's for Table 1. - Please serve it to them 1st.
- There's another bowl here. - Okay.
Gosh, it's hot.
It's so hot.
Is this for Table Two?
Here's guksu for Table Two.
Do you need this?
- No, it's for Table 1. - We just served Table 1.
- Enjoy. - It's just been served.
- So it's for Table 2. - Yes. Serve them 1st.
What was this for?
(It's for Table 2.)
We've finished it in a second.
- Eat it slowly. - I'm not exaggerating,
but I can eat the whole thing if I order it again.
(MINO came to the right table.)
Niga garak guksu is here.
(Quatro)
(It goes outside)
(She looks at MINO.)
Here's a large tteokbokki with quatro-fries.
Thank you.
It's the prettiest one I've seen.
- Thank you. - It's spicy. Enjoy.
Did you see him?
(It's full of dishes to wash already.)
Can someone help me with the dishes?
(These guys go to help Ji Won.)
- I'll help. - We have no cutlery.
I'll put them over there.
(The problem of Kang's Kitchen 5, Su Geun with no skills)
- Did you enjoy your meal? - Yes.
What do you make?
- I do dishes. - Oh, you wash dishes.
You know.
I do the dishes because I have no skills.
I do the dishes because I don't know how to make anything.
I can't cook anything.
What's the red thing in the fries?
- Pardon? - What's the red thing?
It's because it's shy.
It's beetroot. It's shy beetroot.
He said it's red because it's gotten shy.
(Laughing)
(Su Geun makes Ji Won laugh like a crazy man.)
Oh, gosh.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Can we have a portion of ice kkotdongsim?
- Ice... - Kkotdongsim.
Ice fries? What?
Don't you know the name of the menu?
- I don't. - He doesn't know the name.
He only knows what he makes.
- I'm sorry. - Make your orders to me.
It'll cause confusion if you ask him.
I can't hear right.
- One ice cream? - Yes.
(It's already nearing the end of business.)
(He's making the batter for Jae Hyeon's fries.)
Because I don't have skills...
Hygiene.
- Hygiene. - Hygiene.
Let's not lose focus until the end.
- Thank you. - Be alert.
- What did he say? Alarm? - I don't know.
Stay alerted.
(Alerted, alerted, but you)
- Is everyone all right? - Yes.
Make sure the jjajang tteokbokki for Table Three is great.
Okay. Sausages are in now.
- Please make sure it's good. - I will.
Su Geun, can you help me with the carrots?
(He responds with his face.)
Why?
You'll see how skillful I'll become at the end of the day.
Right?
- P.O. Bad news. - What is it?
- I don't have enough soy sauce. - What soy sauce?
Please check the stock in advance.
I'm truly sorry.
It's no use if you realize too late.
- How much of ground garlic... - Let me check.
180g of ground garlic.
- 180g? - Yes. And 190g of mirin.
That's a cup.
(He adds as Ho Dong says.)
180g of ground garlic and 190g of mirin.
380g of soy sauce for soup.
So that's roughly a cup each and two cups for soy sauce for soup.
Please tone it down. The customers are writing it down.
- Which soy sauce is it? - Soy sauce for soup.
- Is it for soup? - Yes. 380g.
(It starts boiling.)
Ho Dong?
(Soy sauce is boiling.)
What's Ho Dong doing?
- What is he doing? - Yes.
I think he's greeting the customers.
Ho Dong.
Thank you.
("Dining Together in Gyeongju")
(Ho Dong sure loves people.)
(The end of greeting)
(After then, he went back to making the sauce.)
I'm sure your business will flourish.
Look at how many bowls you made.
(It proves that he worked hard making noodles all day.)
What?
(The broth has started to run out.)
Oh, no.
- Why? - Now, I'm running out of broth.
- Shall I hold it? - No. It's just...
If you could lead them to order cold guksu...
It was the last customer of the day.
- Was it? - Yes.
- Awesome. - Sir.
Sir, what do you mean we should lead them to order cold guksu?
It's freezing today.
All right, all right.
(He still wants to see cold guksu sold out.)
(Warm guksu has completely sold out today.)
(He makes the last portion of the noodles with great effort.)
(Straining water)
(He doesn't know how to slack off instead of being slow.)
(This is sesame seeds Su Geun ground all day.)
(He sprinkles plenty of it.)
Here we go.
It's the last guksu of the day.
(The last portion of guksu has been served.)
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
Thank you.
(Now, it's time to close.)
(Please take the payment.)
Table seven.
(Payment!)
(Hey.)
It'll take your payment if you rock it.
If you rock this...
(Ringing)
Yes?
- Would you like to pay? - Yes.
I'll give you some discount since our little friend ate it.
With discount...
It's 240.5 dollars.
(Mom, he's weird.)
Thank you.
Thank you. Have a great day.
(Finally, they have time to sit.)
My back is about to break.
Can we order a back cartilage for the counter?
A back cartilage for the counter.
- Take it out. - At the counter...
Take one to serve him.
I'll have two heels too.
You can't have those. I need to knead the dough.
(All right then. I'll cancel the order.)
(Meanwhile, in the kitchen...)
Did someone order cold guksu?
(It still makes his mouth water.)
(He wants to eat it.)
(The strong sauce is running out.)
(He continues to use the spoon to scale.)
- Taste it. - Let me taste it.
(This customer waited all day long to taste this cold guksu.)
Give some to Jae Hyeon too.
(Radish sprouts are growing out of his mouth.)
- Really? - It's so good.
- Really? - It really is.
- I'm so happy to hear that. - It's just awesome.
I hope it reaches 30°C soon.
- Isn't it great? - Why does it taste different?
Something tastes strong.
It's a lot better.
- It's different. - Why has it changed?
- It's different. - Is it the radish sprouts?
(It's gotten better at night.)
- It tastes great. - Ji Won.
(The problem of Kang's Kitchen 6, The Taste of Cold Guksu Changes.)
(To solve all the problems,)
(someone is coming soon.)
- Did you throw away the batter? - No.
- Where is it? - Here.
Where? I see. Okay.
(Smiling)
(The left-over batter for fries)
(The left-over batter with vegetables)
(The left-over egg for topping)
I should make six whether they eat or not.
Just a moment later.
(Tonight's snack is fried eggs.)
(It's the perfect way to use the left-over ingredients.)
- What is it? - I'm frying the eggs.
I've added batter too. It looks great, doesn't it?
Right?
(It's perfect for Ji Won with a child's palate.)
Isn't this great?
It is.
Do you want some ketchup?
(Ho Dong has a bite too.)
- It's great, right? - We should sell this.
I've made it with what Jae Hyeon left.
Shall I fry a bit more?
(He is speechless.)
Did you make this?
- Yes, just now. - It's really good.
Can you heat up the fryer?
- What is this? - Where did it all go?
They ate it all. They liked it.
(Su Geun's fried eggs are popular.)
(He puts all the eggs into the fryer.)
I think we'll eat all of it.
I should put some ketchup on it.
Sprinkle some sugar too.
Try it...
- with sugar and ketchup. - I love sugar.
- Sugar. Sugar! - Good.
Sugar!
(He sprinkles sugar which Ji Won loves.)
I'll try this.
Not too much. This can't taste bad.
- It can't be bad. - Put ketchup too.
- How is it? - The game's over.
Let's change the menu.
(Proud)
How can this be?
I'm happy.
(The perfect combination of carbohydrate and protein)
It'll taste even better to eat it with spicy chicken sauce.
(The fried eggs are sold out.)
Today's over too.
Gosh, well done, guys.
I don't want to do anything.
- It was so tough. - What did I wear today?
(What did I wear this morning?)
(He managed to find his clothes.)
(Spaced out)
(I won't resent)
(He's tired and full, and P.O is humming.)
(Blank)
I'm so old.
(He's spaced out standing up.)
Jae Hyeon?
(Laughing)
Jae Hyeon?
He's always spaced out at the end of the day.
Look at him. He scares me.
(I'm scared.)
(Both of you are scaring us. Stop laughing like that.)
Let's go.
- Let's go. - We're going home.
He's sometimes so spaced out.
I'll cut your beetroot well.
He spaces out especially when he seasons the beetroot.
(Jae Hyeon's face keeps popping up in their heads.)
(Peeking)
Stop doing that.
(Spaced out Jae Hyeon is making everyone laugh.)
It's because you keep doing that...
My gosh, Jae Hyeon.
- Can you see my face? - Of course.
(Something's wrong with his sensor.)
He used to be a healthy boy.
(Laughing)
(They have arrived.)
- Good job. - Good job, guys.
Thanks to Jae Hyeon, we had fun on our way here.
We laughed so much.
- We love you, Jae Hyeon. - We love you.
- Boiler? - Yes, it's to heat up the floors.
- You've just turned it off. - No, I didn't.
You should keep it on.
Shall we wash first, Jae Hyeon?
- What? - Shall we knead after washing?
I'm not sure. Shall we do it now?
(Ho Dong has a cramp on his right leg.)
Ho Dong, if you help us start with the dough, we'll knead.
Okay.
(There's something to do before he washes.)
(It's to clean the clothes and get rid of the odor.)
It stinks of oil.
39 minutes.
(It's to feel refreshed tomorrow morning.)
(Not a cookie maker, but Artist Song is back today.)
(He prepared the dessert ingredients yesterday,)
(so he has some free time.)
(I'm going to draw a picture to hang in the restaurant.)
The brush is too small.
(Searching among kitchen utensils)
(Spreading out the paint with a rice paddle.)
(He spreads the paint expressing his feelings.)
Let's play a song.
(Let's play a work song to increase efficiency.)
(What's the first work song?)
(MINO played Eun Ji Won's song from his comeback album.)
(We played Boccherini's String Quintet Minuet instead.)
(It got them much excited during break time a few days ago.)
(Flying)
(Utilizing the spacious stage)
(Owner of the song)
(Did you know?)
(This song...)
(doesn't have a choreography.)
(There's no choreography.)
(Improvised moves)
(This song will be revealed on June 27.)
(Efficiency seems to have decreased, but it's okay if he's happy.)
(They wash their hands before kneading the dough.)
You have to hold hands and love each other when cooking.
(The painting room next to them is full of vibes.)
It gets communicated.
Don't let them dominate us.
Do it like that.
(Heavy movements)
(Concentration)
It takes three years to just hold this thing.
It takes three years to hold this pot.
(It takes 3 years to hold this pot.)
It takes another five years to step on the flour.
It takes 14 years to make dough.
It takes 20 years to make noodles.
That's why he's so healthy.
- What? - Then how old are you?
I'm 21.
It's been 1 year after 20 years.
(Next is...)
(rookies' debut in foot-kneading.)
- Stand on the line. - Hold this and step in.
Right, that's how you do it.
(You were born to be loved.)
(He's happy)
(It's time to cleanse your hearts.)
Mr. Ahn Jae Hyeon.
This time,
we will return to our past selves.
(Back to when you didn't know quatro)
Today, brother P.O is helping out...
(Sharing the love with a kind face)
and sharing the love.
Next is stage two.
1, 2. 1, 2.
Where's our boss?
He's eating ice cream.
He's eating Together because he wants to be with us.
(An unusually big spoon)
I see.
That's how it was.
When stage two is over,
we will purify ourselves with a painting.
I was enlightened.
(As time goes by,)
(the work place is getting more and more insane.)
I improved.
You live life in two's.
(You live life in two's.)
(No, you're wrong.)
You live a happy, dreamy life as a couple.
Then you have a baby.
(Birth of a baby)
The family is...
(Restaurant intangible cultural asset number 1)
Finally,
while you're kneading the dough...
(Foot-kneading with philosophy, religion, and tradition is done.)
(Meanwhile, MINO)
(The foot-kneaders are blocking the view.)
(He stayed there for a long time...)
(and completed his painting.)
Yes.
(The eye that will watch over Kang's Kitchen from tomorrow)
(He has an early break thanks to the younger guys.)
(He's like a son saying good night to his father.)
Go to bed early.
I will.
(Those who have energy left are having a drink.)
Isn't it less exhausting compared to the last season?
Last season was harder.
It's easy for me this time.
- You're more relaxed. - Much more.
That's right.
(The staff are more relaxed because it's their second time.)
It's less lonely with four people.
When there were only 2 or 3 people,
(Jae Hyeon likes having more people in the kitchen.)
it was really lonely in the kitchen.
(Showing off his muscles)
They're all gone.
(Meanwhile, the forgotten Ji Won has been passed out with his socks on.)
- Ji Won, wash up. - Okay.
(A big man is acting cute, forgetting how big he is.)
- Take a shower. - No, shower...
Wash up before you sleep.
(The younger guys are full of love.)
Why?
(Another big man is acting cute.)
What will you do?
(He's clearly awake, judging from his temper.)
- Good night. - I shouldn't have bothered him.
- Bye. - Can you sleep?
I should.
Why do you think you'll be able to sleep?
(They wash up and go back to bed.)
I thought it was morning.
- You did? - Yes.
(Soon,)
(it'll be morning again.)
(Mission?)
(He gets him water for the morning.)
It's a good habit every morning.
(Health advice: a cup of water on an empty stomach...)
(activates the body organs.)
(He's still asleep despite the noise last night.)
- Ji Won, go wash up. - Okay.
(We need to go to work.)
MINO.
You must be really tired, right?
(He pats him.)
(Taking care of his looks)
(They get ready side by side.)
(Brushing his teeth)
(Doing his hair)
(Aiming)
(Carefully squeezing)
(Plenty of lotion)
(I'm not washing my face.)
Did the older guys put on lotion?
(Let's check.)
(Ho Dong is choosing his outfit of the day.)
(Outfit candidate 1: striped cotton tee-shirt)
(Outfit candidate 2: green cotton tee-shirt)
(Outfit candidate 3: neon cotton tee-shirt)
(It's neon and hip Ho Dong today.)
Ho Dong, did you put on lotion?
- This is different. - Yes, it is.
(If you're like me, use the sky blue one.)
I should use this one then.
(He eagerly accepts when something is advertised as good.)
- Does this contain eye drops? - No.
My eyes feel refreshed.
(Not really?)
Amazing.
It doesn't smell like oil at all.
How long do you have to leave it there?
39 minutes.
(Amazed)
(Going to work refreshed in refreshing clothes)
That's nice.
Let's go to work.
Go!
It'll be hot today.
We'll sell a lot of cold guksu.
(Good news for 4th business day: It's good weather for cold guksu.)
I lost weight, right?
Didn't I lose weight?
I think I lost 2kg compared to last time.
Kyu Hyun was discharged today. I saw the article.
- Really? - Yes.
He should come here straightaway.
He should.
Look at that. He was working hard yesterday.
- MINO. - Good morning.
(Good morning)
- Su Geun, it's not... - Yes.
the best outfit, but it looks good on him.
- I know. - It's not the best?
You're such a bad dresser.
(The older guys are criticizing him.)
When you go to the market,
- your mom would buy those clothes. - Right.
Basketball shoes...
with those pants.
It's another day.
Let's begin with a smile.
- Good morning. - A happy start.
A happy start.
- Seat belts. - Okay.
The air isn't bad either.
I bet we'll sell a lot of cold guksu today.
(It's a good day for cold guksu?)
I experienced passing out yesterday.
It's your first time in a while?
There's no time to watch the news here, right?
I have no idea what is happening in the world.
(Isolated from the world for 4 days)
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
It's a good day today, right?
- It's a good day. - Yes.
It was cold yesterday.
- I know where things are located. - Right.
We have to buy two bags of onion.
These are big.
Yes.
I'll have ground pork. Last time, there was a lot of fat.
Can I have half and half?
- Half and half? - Yes.
(He looks like a Gyeongju local.)
Thank you. Bye.
(See you tomorrow.)
(They start driving again.)
(4th day of business, 8:50am)
- Let's do our best today as well. - Let's go.
Don't make mistakes.
Let's survive another day today.
It's like we're not filming anymore.
What do you mean filming? We're not filming.
- Really? - We're just surviving.
Think of the filming just once in a while.
(TV personality)
Give me some reaction and stuff.
I'm tired all of a sudden.
(Reaction)
(That fateful time...)
(that was unexpected,)
(the day I met you)
The sun is so nice today.
(At that moment, someone is coming...)
(to meet them without notice.)
(Staff: Are you on your way?)
(Yes, I'm on my way.)
(The kitchen)
(His 4th day in the kitchen)
(He's somehow relaxed.)
Shouldn't we start heating the broth and eat something first?
- Yes. - With some sausage.
Sausage for breakfast.
Should we cook some fish cake in soy sauce?
That'd be great.
- Add some onion. - Onion?
Add onion, cut up some sausage,
and cook in soy sauce.
I'll start washing the scallion.
- That's all you need. - That's right.
(10 minutes later)
(Scallion party)
Su Geun, is this enough for the scallion?
- Should I wash more? - That's enough.
(Su Geun's 26th task, Skill level: advanced)
Look at the scallion. It's so big, right?
(Big scallion, small happiness)
(It's P.O's 26th task too.)
(Crying the same tears 4 days in a row)
I'm doing this every day, and I'm still tearing up.
I know.
It hurts the most today.
(He came to the window to cool off his eyes.)
The scallion is really fresh today.
It's good for your eyes.
We're a happy kitchen.
You didn't buy any?
(Jae Hyeon is preparing the sweet potatoes.)
(He prepares the beetroot.)
(He prepares carrots too.)
(Jae Hyeon...)
(is responsible for the visuals.)
I can't leave here.
Right.
(Standing by)
In a second birth, I might be born as a scallion.
So I can get cut up too.
(So I can get cut up too.)
Done.
(Meanwhile, the guksu chef)
(Ingredients for the broth are ready.)
I just have to start making the broth.
(He has to start heating the guksu broth.)
This is enough for 80 people.
(He prepared 80 portions, twice that of the recipe.)
Su Geun, thanks so much...
- You're thanking me? - Yes.
but it'd be nice if you cut...
the scallion a bit more thinly.
- A bit more. - That's the hard part.
Just a bit more than yesterday.
All the teenagers, study hard and learn skills.
Get certified.
I will be back.
(Ho Dong did not know...)
(that the broth pot will come back.)
(Meanwhile, Team Dessert)
(MINO displays the painting he worked on all night.)
- MINO. - Yes.
We should stay alert today.
- How come? - We have the parfait too.
We're doomed.
(Parfait?)
(Team Dessert has its own routine too.)
(Example: changing the cookie bed)
(Today is different.)
Should we try making four?
(Example: preparing the mango)
You add the bingsu,
and I'll take out the dragon balls.
We won't be able to help with the vegetables today.
How come?
We have to make parfait.
- Really? - We have so much to do.
(What are these round things?)
(You have to know what parfait is to know what the dragon ball is.)
(They learned another dessert along with patbingsu.)
(Handmade stalla cookie)
(Ice cream and chocolate balls)
(Handmade dragon balls and soda drink)
(Handmade tuile and yogurt)
(A powerful new menu to blast away the summer)
(This is the amazing dragon ball.)
Let's do the mango ball first.
Puree is ground fruit...
which is frozen after.
Right.
(Squeezing it onto the ball-shaped mold)
- Like this? - Yes.
(Be careful not to drop it.)
How does this stick on here?
(Freeze it for two days minimum.)
Is it a magnet? It is a magnet.
We have 18 of them.
Do you remember the 18 balls?
We don't need three of these.
How do you...
(His hands are shaking.)
take this out?
(Putting power)
(Struggling)
(Beware of greed for food)
Is there some special skill?
- You spread it and push. - I see.
(Spread it slightly and push.)
(I see.)
(Now he gets it.)
I'm not going to tell MINO.
Just take it out.
Hurry and take them out. He's good at it.
(He's naturally good at it)
Seven.
(Add 7 balls since they're dragon balls.)
Seven.
Are we only doing mango?
(They prepared it in advance because of the freezing time.)
(They improve the method and use a funnel and container.)
How can this happen?
We have the most work, but it shows the least.
We agreed not to complain.
I'm not complaining. But it doesn't make sense.
(He complains as usual but still works hard.)
Come over here. I'll do it.
(They have to take out the dragon balls starting now.)
Okay.
I'll take them out here.
(He starts taking them out.)
(Shaking)
This takes too much energy.
Let me see.
My shoulders.
We need somebody from headquarters.
Didn't we get a part-time worker from headquarters...
when we were in Jeju Island?
His name was Nano or something.
I wonder what he's doing these days.
Take them out and put them in here.
But some of them don't come out easily.
Do you know what I feel watching you guys?
- What do you feel? - Frustration.
Come on, that's harsh.
Hey, try it. Try it before you speak.
(This is close to the actual speed.)
Why is PD Na so good at this?
Why don't I hear any moaning?
(Everyone is good at something.)
- Ho Dong. - Yes?
We got a part-time worker.
- Who is it? - Nano.
Nano.
- Nano? - Yes.
Good.
He should do it.
(Almost done)
Don't rush yourselves. They'll send someone if it's urgent.
That's because they're scared.
Headquarters isn't relaxing either.
(That's why we invited him.)
(That moment at Singyeongju Station)
(Baek Jong Won, headquarters)
The weather is nice over here.
(I'll be there soon.)
(30 minutes before Mr. Baek arrives)
Wait a minute. Let's see. Gosh.
- We're in trouble, Su Geun. - Why?
I only put 600g of large-eyed herring.
That's why it felt weird when I put it in.
- What? - Large-eyed herring.
- You didn't put it in? - We never had one.
We never had an after-party.
- It's not the time for jokes. - What do you mean after-party?
- Large-eyed herring. - What?
(Large-eyed herring is essential for broth.)
(Ho Dong had to make twice the amount of the recipe.)
(But he only put half the amount of large-eyed herring.)
This is not good.
Hurry up. I should take it out.
You didn't add large-eyed herring?
I added 600g when I should've added 1,200g.
Something felt lacking, so I thought I'll add it later.
Then I just forgot.
Goodness, I'm not usually like this.
This is important. It's the essence of broth.
Goodness, Ho Dong.
At least I noticed it.
I noticed it in the early stages.
The rice is cooked really well.
The rice? Okay. It's cooked well?
Yes.
P.O.
You know the hook, right?
We have to find it.
You know the hook, right?
Look for the hook in the middle.
Wait. It's coming up.
Wait. Be careful.
We got it.
(A successful rescue)
If you hold it tight...
Right, like this. I'll hold it.
I wonder what it looks like inside.
Goodness, it's so pretty.
Put it in there.
(He adds the rest of the large-eyed herring.)
This is nice.
We have two hours, right? It's okay.
Problem solved.
That was close.
Mr. Kang needs to focus more.
- I agree. - He's a bit out of sorts.
(When he has lost his focus,)
Ho Dong gets nervous easily.
(someone will be there for him.)
What's wrong with your hair?
- What? - You have a cowlick.
I was wearing a hat.
(He took off his hat.)
(Ji Won, who doesn't have his hat on, is cleaning.)
(At that moment,)
(someone arrives.)
(Even the drone is curious about him.)
Hello.
(Surprised)
Hello.
(Surprised)
Hello.
(Surprised)
Hello, sir.
(Surprised)
- Mr. Baek is here! - Hello, sir.
- Hello, you're here. - Hello.
- Hello. - Hey.
(Baek Jong Won is here.)
(Startled)
- Goodness, hello. - Sir, what brings you here?
I'm sorry, but my hands are dirty.
Weren't you in China?
- I flew in yesterday. - What?
- Is it going well? - Yes.
The broth smells just right.
(His first pupil is very tense.)
- Welcome. - He came all the way here.
I have a question.
How long does chunjang last?
If you refrigerate it, you can use it for a long time.
Can I use it for a week?
Yes, you can.
- What about the cold guksu? - Yes?
- Have you tried it? - I've made the broth.
- Let me see. - Would you like to try some?
Yes.
I was so anxious.
I was too anxious about telling you the recipe through the phone.
I made it in the morning.
- You're doing well, right? - You should try some.
We were content with the taste.
(Two days ago, Ho Dong asked Mr. Baek about cold guksu.)
(I haven't told you the recipe for cold guksu.)
(Since you're good at cooking,)
(do you want me to tell you the recipe through the phone?)
(Mr. Baek was worried about telling him through the phone,)
(so he ran over here after his business trip.)
I used a ratio of 1 to 1.
I didn't do anything else.
(This is the marinade.)
It became sweet. It got rid of the fishy smell.
Good. Where's the cooled broth?
- We have it. - Let me see.
I can't believe he came all the way here.
I know. He came all the way to Gyeongju.
Look at this.
- This is ice. - Yes.
We took it out from the freezer and refrigerated it this morning.
- You need to crush this. - Okay.
The reason why the broth sometimes tastes bland or salty...
is because of the ice.
(He tries the broth with the marinade.)
We received positive responses. They enjoyed it.
It's a bit bland.
(He adds a bit more of the marinade.)
We added whole sesame seeds to it to make it more aromatic.
Tell me if this is the right taste.
Is it?
You mean the taste from yesterday? The whole sesame seeds will help.
- This is good. - That's not what I meant.
It's excellent.
Was this the ratio you used? Or was it more bland?
This is just your taste.
- It's good. - Was this how it tasted?
It didn't taste like this yesterday.
- Right? That's what I thought. - It tasted differently.
(Ji Won tastes it.)
- It's different, right? - Yes.
It was slightly more bland.
- A bit. - Give me a bigger bowl.
The marinade needs to be stronger. The marinade itself is tasty.
But the broth will dilute it and thus, make it bland.
The fishy smell is still there.
In order to make it taste like that, it needs to be very spicy.
That's because you'll have to add a lot more marinade.
If we were to achieve that taste, it'll become very hot.
If you want to make it less bland but maintain the spiciness,
you'll just need to add more to the water.
You'll need more broth, soy sauce, and other ingredients.
Add a bit more sugar too.
Do it right now.
- I don't think he understood. - Did you not?
No, I did.
- Tell me if you didn't. - No, I did.
Which ingredients will you add?
You didn't understand him. Why did you say that you did?
I'll add some sugar and...
Apart from the green onions, garlic,
and minced chili, add the rest of the ingredients.
- Even soy sauce? - Yes, everything.
Hurry up. What are you doing?
I'm trying not to block your view.
(He looks pathetic.)
- He's going to succeed for sure. - Seriously.
We haven't had a solid meal for four days now.
Why not? You have jjajang sauce too.
We were about to stir-fry these fish cakes...
because we ran out of side dishes.
We're going to have fish cakes and just rice.
- Rice with just this. - I feel bad for you.
- The welfare system is a bit... - It's not great.
He spends all day preparing the guksu.
If you have guksu, you should feed them some.
Now, we need the other broth. Where is it?
You have the broth, right?
(Glancing)
Can you make a bowl of guksu right now?
Okay.
Let's try it. Do it like you normally do.
Okay.
- I'll make the noodles now. - Okay.
(Mr. Baek will try his guksu for the first time.)
- How do they look? - It's good.
Is it?
(He prepares the dish meticulously.)
(He goes over the steps to make guksu.)
Done.
Let's see. Is this the broth?
- Yes. - Do you serve this much?
I put in a bit more than usual.
Do it like you normally do. Pour it again.
- I couldn't control it. - There must be a fixed quantity.
That looks more than 400cc.
It's about 400cc.
It is.
It's 500cc.
The amount of broth is crucial because...
if you serve too much, they'll leave some.
And if they leave some, they become less content.
They tend to be content if they can empty the bowl.
If they can't, they think it's because the broth wasn't good.
- You must remember this. - Okay.
Serving a lot of broth isn't being generous.
Generosity is when you serve them more when they ask for it.
But when you first serve them, it needs to be a fixed quantity.
This is the biggest mistake many soup restaurants make.
(Hoping that he won't make any more mistakes,)
(he places the garnish on top.)
From the way I see it, making good dishes is important.
But customer service is just as important.
However, the headquarters never visited to monitor us.
Since we've never learned about customer service,
we don't know if we're doing the right thing.
Would you be okay watching over us...
- for just a little while? - For just one table, at least.
Don't joke around and give me the chopsticks. Oh, they're here.
Telling a comedian not to joke around is a bit harsh.
This is exactly how we serve our customers.
- I put this in the very last. - That's what's important.
- You should use the ladle. - This is what I do.
You'll make a mistake. 2, 3.
This is why I'm telling you to use a ladle.
1, 2,
3, 4.
- It's one-third full, right? - Right.
It's one-third.
Look at how much solid ingredients there are.
(The ladle picks up less solid ingredients.)
The solid ingredients are floating on top, right?
So the amount of solid ingredients you pick up...
when using a spoon and a ladle varies.
(Spoon: A lot of solid ingredients and easy to make mistakes)
(Ladle: Fixed amount of solid ingredients and more convenient)
(It's time to taste it.)
Try it and tell me if this is right.
(It's the new version of the marinade.)
- Is it right? - Is this like yesterday's?
- I followed his orders. - It's slightly stronger.
It was slightly more bland yesterday.
- Is that so? - Yes.
- Are they similar? - This one's tasty.
- Is it better than yesterday's? - Yes, by far.
It was tasty yesterday too.
I think you should try it too.
It's really good.
(He's definitely a comedian.)
(Don't tell me not to joke around.)
I'll add a bit more.
1, 2.
All right. Put in 6 to 7 spoonfuls.
- It's completely different. - It's better, right?
Yes.
- How is it? - Add half a ladleful...
from now on.
Okay.
It'll be much better.
I'll try the noodles now.
(Ho Dong's sincerity and pride is at stake.)
- Six spoonfuls. - What?
You should add six spoonfuls.
How are the noodles?
- What? They're good. - How are they?
Okay.
(His noodles are approved by Mr. Baek.)
You need to drink the broth.
It's the best.
Yesterday's was good, but doesn't this one taste a bit special?
It became an entirely new dish.
There's something special about this dish.
No, it's a completely different dish.
Gosh, you're such a party pooper when I'm trying so hard.
- You can do well. - I know.
The difference is just two spoonfuls.
Right.
Don't forget that.
That was amazing.
Have you really not eaten yet?
- No. - No, we're serious.
Bring me a big frying pan. I'll make you something.
(They're genuinely excited.)
Would you like some coffee?
No, thank you.
Would you like some ice cream?
Let me cook first.
Why are you leaving tomorrow?
What do you mean?
I heard that you're spending the night with us.
Says who? Don't be silly. I'm leaving soon.
(He has plans.)
- How about... - Is he cooking right now?
Would you like me to wash your car if you've brought it?
I can wash your car.
You can't serve this pork belly because they're in bits.
You stored it wrong. They're stuck together.
They are.
(He puts the pork belly in the pan...)
(and stir-fries it with scallion oil.)
You would've had to throw it away.
I was going to use it today and eat it together.
(It's news to him.)
- I'm serious. - You were in charge.
(The meat melts quickly and is almost done.)
How many of you are there?
- 6. - There are 6 of us.
Prepare the rice.
I'll make pork and rice.
(The ice cream is delivered.)
Already?
I can't reject it.
You should try it. It's really good.
- Do you sell this? - Yes.
Is it okay?
It's good.
How much is this?
It's two dollars.
Gyeongju is famous for red beans.
- Right. - You should add some.
- Red beans? - Get some from the patbingsu.
- Okay. - It's a great combination.
Gosh.
I came here to inspect, yet I'm cooking.
(This is what fiery taste must taste like.)
- You can put it there. - Should I put the rice in here?
No, give yourselves a bowl each.
Since we don't eat rice, we don't have separate bowls.
- Use the bowls for jjajangmyeon. - Okay.
We've never had our own bowls.
- Is this okay? - Isn't that too small?
(The carrots add color.)
(He adds some sugar.)
(He also adds some onions.)
(Impressed)
(He adds a bit of soy sauce...)
(and water.)
Since you've had stir-fried pork with rice often,
I'll make this special by adding some fish cakes.
That looks good.
Thank you.
I've never seen that dish with fish cakes in it.
(After adding some chili powder,)
(the dish transforms.)
(Look at how red it is.)
(He pours in more water.)
Look at that.
- Goodness. - Look at the color.
(He also adds spicy chili.)
Goodness.
(Once he adds starch water...)
It's done.
- Let's have pickled radish. - MINO.
- Yes? - Ji Won.
- What? - The food's ready.
(He adds the icing on the cake with sesame oil and sesame seeds.)
(They're waiting.)
- Have more later. - Thank you.
- Eat up. - Thank you for the meal.
- If it's bland, have more. - Thank you.
I didn't come here to serve food.
(He's made enough to serve it with rice.)
Thank you.
This looks so scrumptious.
(Stir-fried pork and fish cakes with rice)
Taste it. I hope it's not salty.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Thank you. - Eat up.
Jae Hyeon, sit down.
- How is it? - It's just right.
I'm glad.
That's Ji Won's.
It's so good.
There's more.
This is really good.
I doubt that it's good.
- No, it's really good. - This is our 1st meal in 4 days.
I wish I had more time.
It's a pity I don't.
- It took him five minutes. - This is good.
If we add another menu, we'd die.
It'd be chaotic.
Isn't it tasty?
It's so good.
This is our first time eating meat after coming here.
It's really good.
I opened the fridge and found some pork belly that were...
stuck together. You wouldn't have been able to use them.
You stored them wrong, so they stuck together.
It's because they melted once.
(They're in cloud nine.)
- Eat slowly. - It's really good.
Poor you. You should eat.
You've all grown gaunt.
Gosh, I'm amazed.
- Is it good? - Yes.
- It's really good. - It is.
I'm loving this.
This tastes different and is much more delicious.
It's interesting how there are fish cakes.
If you had squid, I would've added that.
But you didn't have any. I added fish cakes to make it...
similar to seafood.
It's truly amazing.
You need to communicate well.
From the hall, you need to watch how the customers react.
After that... Who does the dishes?
I do.
It's an important role.
The one who does the dishes need to see the leftovers.
That way,
you'll know why the customers leave some leftovers.
- He pinpoints it. - Oh, really?
He's very accurate.
- That's unexpected of you. - I am quick...
at things like that. I just haven't learned many skills.
I'm good at things like that. It's just that I lack skills.
Yesterday, you talked about the scallions.
The customers kept leaving some scallions.
We put in a lot.
It's crucial that you analyze the leftovers...
and take immediate measures.
Afterward, you need to study them again.
After we downsized the fries, they finished them all.
That's good.
I thought it'd be nice...
to serve some corn salad on the side,
so I've been doing that.
Good job.
Put the corn salad inside.
- Inside the rice? - Yes.
Place the kimchi fried rice first, put the cheese on top,
then add the corn salad.
- The corns? - Yes.
It'd look better when they eat.
I think that would be better.
- I'll try that. - All right.
These two...
- They know how to apply things. - They do.
They make progress every day and may even exceed me.
You guys are really amazing.
After talking on the phone, I was so worried...
that I came here in the morning after arriving from Shanghai.
Usually, it's difficult for people to get it through the phone.
But what you guys did really impressed me.
- We're relying on you 200 percent. - Right.
We need you.
Let's see.
How's the kitchen? How are you handling two dishes?
- I can manage. - Can you?
- P.O, you're doing okay, right? - Yes.
I help out the others when I'm free.
Don't you have it easy?
No...
After making the dough, the noodles, and the broth,
I'm sure you have it easy.
That's why he usually helps out with the dishes.
- They call me Kang the Dishwasher. - "Kang the Dishwasher"?
- They do. - "Kang the Dishwasher"?
Because you do the dishes?
Would you like me to teach you another recipe?
- Sure. - Really?
Since it's hot out,
how about spicy guksu?
- Or... - That would be great.
- That's the best. - Then...
- That would be great. - I think so too.
- Spicy guksu? - Yes.
We have no time, so hurry up and eat.
Okay.
No, only Ho Dong has to hurry.
Thank you for the meal.
You're done already?
He needs to learn how to make them.
- We will disturb them. - Eat slowly.
- I'll teach him. - Okay.
You seem to be used to it now.
I still lack in many ways,
but it's amazing how I can see myself improving.
It's so fun to learn how to cook from you.
- Isn't it? You've improved a lot. - Yes.
It's easy once you learn.
It's all thanks to you.
Oh, come on.
It's just because it suits you.
We've been doing quite well.
But after you came, we started panicking.
Okay, bring the chopsticks.
Look at that.
Gosh, look at that.
Did you make that?
He made the marinade.
I didn't make it.
You just need this marinade to make the noodles?
You just need kimchi for this dish.
He's truly incredible.
He's truly awesome.
- He surprises me all the time. - In such a short time.
He knows how to find the right taste.
That's incredible.
I love learning from you.
You're doing this for us.
Mr. Baek, could you...
- It's okay. - What is it?
Someone needs to peel the eggs.
- Gosh. - It's okay.
- I'll do it. - No, I can do it.
I'm sorry.
- You want me to peel them? - No, sir.
It's okay, Ho Dong.
You're already doing well, but he wants you to do even better.
It's just because he adores you so much.
I'll send out the spicy guksu in 30 seconds.
And then, I'll boil the noodles. Done.
What is this? What was it again?
Prepare the kimchi first.
Where was it?
- Let's go. - What is this?
Table five ordered spicy guksu. Make them yourself.
Table four ordered spicy guksu. Make them yourself.
You guys can make them. Table five.
- He wants them to make them. - Prepare them.
- "Make them yourself." - "Make them yourself."
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
Go inside and make more noodles.
Brace yourselves. We have a full list of orders.
1 cold guksu and 1 spicy guksu.
One spicy guksu.
I'll send out the spicy guksu first.
Please boil faster. I'm so sorry. Gosh, Ho Dong.
- We have more orders. - Okay.
Could you receive the orders a bit slower?
I can't refuse them when they want to order.
- They were waiting. - But still...
Were we always this busy?
1 at Table 6, 2 at Table 7, 1 each at Tables 2 and 3.
You should read them in order.
You should say, "2, 3, and 4".
They always leave a bit of the spicy guksu.
I don't think they enjoy the sour taste.
We received a complaint.
Where's the sesame oil? Where is it? Director!
It's this much?
Should I write them down?
- Yes, please. - 1 dollar and 50 cents...
It's not coming out, MINO.
This one doesn't work either. It's not working.
This has gone insane.
Darn it. This isn't a break.
They only ordered four bowls of cold guksu.
No, they ordered five bowls.
- No, it's 4. - No, it's 5.
Please check again.
4 cold guksu and 1 warm guksu.
1, 2, 3...
- Four. - What?
4 and 5.
Don't get angry.
- Darn it. - Calm down.
- Love. - Love.
Consideration and respect.
- Let's not get angry. - Okay.
