Grandpa. I didn't get enough customers this month either...
...so I can't pay the rent.
My resignation. There is work I would like to do.
What you see there isn't what it seems.
–I love it. –Good work.
Usually, they leave before ever entering the sauna.
–I'll take the place. –What?
–The pearl in the mud.
That place.
I sold the sauna, so get out.
Grandpa, why are you doing this to me?
I have a favor to ask.
Want to work for me?
What is this?
A term of 30 years?
There is no way.
Not unless he fails and vacates the place on his own.
That's the only way, huh?
Welcome.
(Good Chicken)
[Subtitles@ordinary.guy.92]
I can do it!
(Opens Tomorrow)
–Welcome. –Yes I am.
Welcome. Welcome.
Smells like fried chicken.
Thank you.
Fried chicken, half with sauce, half as it is.
–What? –Soy sauce chicken, garlic chicken...
...three draft beers, and two bottles of soju.
And one fried chicken to go before we leave.
–What? –I'd like...
...fried chicken with extra sauce...
...three orders of pickled radish and a small bottle of cola?
No, make that a 1.5 liter of cola.
Tuck the chin under.
Keep your arms strong.
Smile.
Don't spill the water.
Again.
That will be 127,000 won.
He will be paying for what they ordered.
I'll pay for what I ordered.
You pay for the whole thing.
Why would I?
If I were your boss,...
...I'd fire you on the spot.
When was the last time you went to a restaurant?
Two years ago?
Maybe it was three years.
Such a homebody.
You have to get served to be able to serve.
Tomorrow's the day. There's no more hiding.
When the chicken joint goes under...
...what will you do? Make it a sauna again?
I haven't thought that far ahead, but not a sauna.
Then?
Don't think too hard.
Leave it as it is.
It's all the trend these days.
Individual taste.
You want me to run a fried chicken joint?
I don't know anything about frying chicken.
Then, sell something else.
For example...
...coffee?
A sauna cafe? Not bad.
Not bad.
I'm going to be a cafe owner now?
It's fine...
...but why work so hard to be a part–timer?
–Your boss said he would hire you already. –Gyu–man.
I can't get fired before the place even goes under.
To take my enemy down, I must earn his trust.
That's how I'll get the chance to kill him.
Without such a mentality, I can't go into battle.
Now, back to practice.
–Practice. –Are you ready to order?
This is so confusing.
We're just two men.
Is it now individual bathtubs?
Sorry, gentlemen. We're not a sauna
but a fried chicken joint now.
–Really? –But we're here for a bath.
No wonder! She kept saying to order.
–Let's go. –I knew something was off.
–Darn it. –Let's go.
Let's go.
You lost some regulars.
–How confusing. –Sheesh.
–I can't tell what it is. –Where do we go now?
Come back next time to eat some fried chicken.
–Okay. –Let's go.
–Goodbye! –Oh jeez.
Let's go to the one over there.
(Showered with Good Chicken Employment Contract)
You have every Monday off. You will work six days a week.
You'll get overtime pay and you'll have a 30–minute break.
The hours of work are flexible according to the situation.
Your pay is the minimum wage, 7,530 won per hour.
During your probationary three months, you'll be getting 90 percent––
–10,000 won an hour, no probation period. –What?
Did you not see how I received the guests?
They recognized me.
Still, asking for 10,000 won is a bit much.
I guess you forgot...
...I've been working as a professional sauna owner for five years.
You can't treat me like an ordinary part–timer.
Tell him you want 10,000 won.
You have to get from him...
...the 500,000 won your grandpa's giving him.
At 10,000 won, you'd be getting 450,000 won more than at minimum wage.
Write the 50,000 off.
Grandpa always nagged so much over a measly allowance of 50,000 won.
And he's giving him 500,000 a month?
Even if he tries to negotiate, don't go below 9,000 won.
Haggling down 1,000 won would make it 180,000 per month.
He will go under a bit faster if you have him pay you more.
But would he give me 10,000 won per hour?
If you can't,...
–...9,500 won. –Sounds good.
–What? –It was brief but you're a good server.
I trust you. Let's make it 10,000 won.
Oh okay.
Really?
I look forward to working with you.
It's slow because it's our first day, but it will be busy starting tomorrow.
Okay!
(Episode 2 –The Prince's Hobby)
(Three Days Later)
Bo–a, if you're up, can you come here?
Coming!
(Showered with Good Chicken Huge Sale Event)
Is this supposed to be a flyer?
What do you think? Awesome, huh?
Just seeing it makes you want some fried chicken, huh?
Fried chicken's always a craving.
Will you drop this off?
I'll prepare for another promotional event.
Yes, boss.
Wait.
Can you say that one more time?
–Again? –Yes.
Boss, boss, boss.
Boss, boss...
All set?
I'll go drop this off now.
It always feels good to hear "boss."
You can go now.
Bo–a, where are you going?
–Errand. –Bo–a.
–How's work going? –Really well.
It's been three days since we opened, and we haven't had one customer.
That's awesome.
But your boss must be feeling very down.
No, he's still very optimistic.
He takes work for granted.
That can't be.
He put a lot of money into the place.
He's probably pretending.
You think?
No, no. That's not it.
He could be that way.
I didn't want to bring it up anymore...
...but when I was 20 I went on a trip to Europe, right?
–Stop! –Yeah, please.
You told me so many times already about your airline meals.
Listen.
You know the Palace of Versailles?
There was a really amazing farm there...
...called Marie Antoinette.
Why did the queen make the farm?
What do you want from me?
The rich used to enjoy farming as a hobby.
To them, milking cows and sowing the field looked like a lot of fun...
...because life was boring.
So her boss is like Marie Antoinette?
Yes! He graduated from a top university and entered a big name company but quit...
...and opened the fried chicken joint.
He's paying you what you ask, and doesn't care if there are no customers.
That's exactly what it is.
What?
Silver spoon.
That rich prince must be having so much fun.
He fries up chicken and washes dishes with soap.
And you call him your boss.
Yeah! He loves it when I say that.
–What will I do? –Oh jeez.
Yeah, what will you do now?
You are done for.
(Showered with Good Chicken Huge Sale Event)
I've got to do something.
I need a special plan.
Mi–na, paper and pen. Now!
–What are you doing? –Mi–na.
When do you not want to eat fried chicken?
When I'm too full?
No, that's too hard.
Something that kills your appetite.
Yes, the appetite.
You are so cruel.
Honey, don't worry.
I'll save you no matter what.
I don't care if I'm fried up...
...but I worry about our chicks.
Honey, don't say such weak words.
Hello? One fried chicken please.
Honey! I wish you happiness though I may be gone!
–And take good care of our chicks! –Honey, grab my hand!
It's so hot, honey!
–Cluck, cluck. –If you leave me like this...
...what am I to do?
–Honey. –Mom, we miss you.
–Mom. –Kids?
Goodbye.
We make it like your mother would.
It's good. Showered with Good Chicken.
–You really want to print this? –Yes, 2,000 copies please.
No, make that 4,000.
I'll pass it out to the town over too.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
Here you go.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
–Here's your fried chicken. –Thank you.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
–Here's your fried chicken. –Thank you.
Bo–a, right here!
Enjoy. If you like it, tell your mother to buy you some.
Thank you.
I'll give you a box of chicken, and you give them the flyer.
–Your chicken is out. –Thank you.
Try it and if it's good, ask your mom to buy you some.
–Okay. Thank you. –Take this too.
Your chicken is out.
–Give it to your mom. –Here's your chicken.
–Thank you. –I'll enjoy it.
–Here's your chicken. –Look at this, guys.
–What? –What?
–Here's your chicken. –Thank you.
–Enjoy. –But don't you feel bad for them?
Here's your chicken.
–Here, take a look. –Enjoy.
Here.
Bo–a, what is this?
–Isn't it way better? –Who'd want to eat chicken––
Mister! Give me some chicken!
Let's talk later.
Enjoy.
Show it to your parents.
Here you go.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
Here.
I never knew
a fried chicken place so good.
Let me get a bite.
Enjoy. Come back with your parents.
–Thank you. –Show it to your parents.
–Enjoy and tell your parents to buy some. –Okay.
Look at it with your friends.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
If you like it, tell your parents to buy you some.
–Okay. –Take a coupon.
–Enjoy. –Thank you.
Come again.
Enjoy. Come back with your parents.
Enjoy. See you again soon.
Okay.
I'm sorry. The child there took the last one.
What?
But there's a 50 percent off coupon in the flyer so please come by.
Our fried chicken's really good.
No thanks. I don't want any.
That was exhausting.
Bo–a.
Can we talk?
(Park Jun–hyuk Oriental Medicine)
(Dr. Park Jun–hyuk)
–Any questions? –Nope. Thank you, doctor.
–Bye. –Bye.
Next.
Dr. Park, how could you take 20 minutes with one patient?
A medical practice is a business. You must think of profit.
Mom, why are you in Seoul?
Why? That really hurts.
My son opened his own practice. Of course I should come.
The interior design isn't very elegant.
I'll have to fix it up since I'm here.
Please don't.
When does Choi–go get off of work?
Tell him to meet up here, so we can have dinner together.
The thing is...
If he feels bad about leaving early, I will call his manager.
Ask for the number.
It's been months since I saw him.
I'm sure she won't mind.
I think he went on a business trip.
–Overseas. –Really?
Sheesh. He didn't even tell me.
Then, let's not go out.
Want me to make you dinner?
It's been a long time since you had a home–cooked meal.
I gave you the draft.
And this? Who'd want to eat fried chicken after seeing this?
I can't believe this.
A mother chicken.
How will you fix this?
–Can I be honest? –What?
Your flyer totally sucked.
Flyers like that around here are a dime a dozen.
It goes right into the garbage.
Wow!
Would you ever lose this?
That's all the more problem.
You'd dream about the mother chicken.
Perhaps you don't know, but this is the trend.
Trend or not, I forbid it.
How is this logical?
Hey, I'll call you in––
–What? –Mom's here.
She's sleeping at my place today.
–What about me? –I don't know.
Why'd you move into my place when you had a place of your own?
Anyway, I'm going home with Mom now.
–That's that. –Now?
You know what will happen if she finds out you quit, right?
She's bound to picket at your office to get your job back.
Joon–hyuk.
Joon–hyuk? Hello? Joon–hyuk!
Anyway, you don't really have a knack for this at all...
...so leave it to me. Got it?
For now, let's talk later. Something urgent has come up.
Boss?
I'll pass out the rest of the flyers.
If you don't want me to tell me.
I'll take that as a yes.
No psychopath would want to have chicken after seeing this.
Yeah.
Please visit Showered with Good Chicken.
Please visit.
Here.
You're working hard.
Don't work so hard.
You'll pass out from passing these out.
Come on.
My legs hurt. I can't walk anymore.
How many did you pass out?
About 500?
–You think it'll work? –Of course.
The fried chicken joints across town will lose business thanks to you.
I haven't worked this hard. I'm dying here.
I don't want to work hard.
You have a sun spot!
What? Really?
How much longer must I do this?
Thanks to a rich boy's hobby, I'm dying here.
–What? –Oh nothing.
I feel like there's a way.
Something that will work for sure.
Should I look into it?
Mi–na!
Darn it.
There.
Here we go.
Oh no.
What was my door code?
Joon–hyuk!
It's not normally like this, but I've been busy with the opening.
Oh no. This won't do.
I'll stay for a few days.
No, you don't need to.
Yeah right! You're living in squalor!
When Choi–go returns from his trip,
I will see him and then return home.
I can't believe this.
Why come all the way here to work?
I'll do it later. Let's eat out.
Do you see Choi–go now and again?
Yeah, every now and again.
Look after him, will you?
I'm sorry to say this, but I have a soft spot for him.
He's never been as good as you in school...
...and he's never been as good even after school.
Mum, people would laugh at you for saying that.
He graduated from a good university and entered Myungsung Group.
He does measure up. He doesn't lack a thing.
Yeah, I never imagined he'd get hired at Myungsung.
Yeah, I am able to get by on that one achievement.
I'll do this later.
I'm done. This is the last of it.
It's all done.
(Showered with Good Chicken)
–I'm sorry but–– –One fried chicken.
Here.
It's 50 percent off with a coupon, right? Go get it.
Sorry but I can't accept customers now.
What, you don't think I can afford to pay 5,900 won?
How dare you!
We're set, right?
Bring me fried chicken.
It's not that.
My boss isn't in, so there's no one to fry the chicken.
What?
Can you come back, or rather, go eat somewhere else?
I know a great fried chicken place nearby.
Go eat there.
I work here so I shouldn't say this, but the chicken isn't great here.
So you're saying...
...you're discriminating?
Is that it?
Stop making ridiculous excuses and bring me my chicken.
How dare you!
Why are you yelling?
–What? –Is it okay...
for a customer to yell and throw a tantrum to part–timers?
No, ma'am.
I'm just really hungry.
I was nice enough to tell you where to get good fried chicken.
Get out.
Go eat it elsewhere, or starve, do what you will.
I can't sell you chicken anyway.
I guess this place will go under.
We get weird customers , because the owner is weird.
Huh?
Did you come to have chicken?
[K-Plus Asia ver.] The Best Chicken E02 Ripped & Synced by ordinaryguy92
There.
I didn't kick him out.
I know, you don't know how to fry up chicken yet.
Well? He's waiting.
Right. I'll take it.
Enjoy.
He's our first customer.
–Yeah. –I hope our chicken's good.
I hope he likes it. I feel nervous.
Fried chicken's all the same.
It's chicken fried in oil.
My chicken is like the others?
What did you do to this chicken?
How is this fried chicken?
Sir!
Is there a problem?
Yes, you were right.
I'd rather starve than eat this.
I didn't say that.
If you tell me what you don't like about it, I'll make you a new order.
Look.
It's undercooked and you want me to eat this?
Huh?
Sorry, I'll make you a new one.
Your fried chicken is out.
It's so hard I can't even put a fork through it.
Again.
You can't even fry chicken?
You just have to take it out at the right time.
It's wrong again?
You'd get it wrong 100 times!
It'd be faster for me to fry it up than have what you fry up for me.
Are you okay?
You can't come in here.
–You know how to make batter, right? –What?
Such great chicken gone to waste.
–But this is–– –Are you just going to stand there?
Make the batter.
Okay.
Andrew.
Andrew, get it together!
What are they doing?
I'm sorry.
I'll take this when you enjoy the chicken I make.
It's okay. I won't be coming back.
Don't be like that.
Please come back again.
You don't have an understanding of ingredients yet.
Boss?
Don't get the wrong idea.
I'd rather eat this than starve.
Boss, should I clean up?
No, I'll clean up.
You can go home.
Yay!
What a long day.
But it's so late.
No way.
Why work this late if it's a hobby?
Tomorrow, I'll pass out the rest of the flyers.
I did it. I did it!
Bo–a!
I did it.
Will you try some? Hurry.
Try some.
It's the same as last night.
Is it good?
Yes.
Try the breast.
–It's not dry. –Right?
I had no idea till now!
Cooking times are slightly different depending on the part.
The legs must cook longer, and the breast cook shorter.
I didn't know so I put them all in and took them out at the same time.
How did you know?
(Cooking Time Results)
I cooked each part separately.
Each part was fried at different times...
...and the order is legs, thighs, wings, ribs and then breasts.
–What? –Meaning...
...you can't put them into the oil at the same time.
You put the leg in first.
The breast goes in last.
If you time it perfectly...
...all the pieces are cooked to perfection to be served.
Everyone should have some of this.
Why don't we have customers?
You must think running a restaurant is a lot of fun.
Even if we have no customers.
Of course. It's what I love to do.
Right, I'm sure.
I'll go pass out the flyers.
Wait.
I thought about it all night...
...and I could see why you would have made such strange flyers.
If we have flyers like everyone else's, no one remembers and they get thrown out.
Right.
I'll get going.
Don't.
They are memorable, but I forbid it.
Then what do you want me to do?
We have to make something they won't ever throw out or ever forget.
That's what we need.
(Showered with Good Chicken)
It's really nice here.
Don't covet it. It's my place.
I won't let you have it.
Don't worry. As promised, for a week,
–I'll wait patiently. –I didn't agree to that!
Let's talk about that later.
Let's get to work.
(Canola Oil)
Why'd you prepare so much?
You always have to go all out.
Here.
–You expect me to stir? –Yes.
My legs hurt yesterday from passing out flyers.
Today, my arms will hurt.
What an extreme job this is.
How much more must I stir?
Thirty minutes, I believe.
What?
The weather's warmer for fall, but it's fun, huh?
It's like we're getting somewhere.
I don't get what you think is so much fun.
You have to stir in one direction.
It doesn't work if you reverse it.
I know. That's why I'm stirring in one direction even though my arms hurt.
Hello?
One moment.
–Bo–a? –What?
Sorry, but the alcohol delivery is here.
Okay, I'll take it.
Sorry. I'll be right back.
Here.
Wait.
Why am I working so hard?
I'm not a maid helping him with his vacation homework.
Sheesh.
I hope you go under!
I hope it all goes wrong!
–All set. –Thank you.
–Have a good day.
(Milk)
Bo–a!
What took you so long?
Wow, it's great!
It looks good to go.
Should we try now?
Okay.
Stop dribbling it.
–It was hard to stir. –Sorry.
Wow! Mr. Lee!
What are you doing here?
I just stopped by.
I was passing by.
Are the shops here doing a better job of cleaning now?
When should they clean?
Tomorrow night would be late.
You understand me so well.
You think it's done by now?
Wait unless you want to mess it up after working so hard.
Okay.
–Should we look? –Should we?
One, two, three!
–Wow! –How pretty.
Wow!
It looks like a real chicken leg.
How would we do laundry with this?
It's too pretty to do the laundry with.
I'll put it somewhere I can see it well.
What do you think?
If you see it, you'd want to come to our restaurant, huh?
It's just laundry soap. That's going overboard.
But...
...can I have a few of them?
Sure.
It looks like a real chicken leg.
Mine looks more real, huh?
No, mine looks way more real.
Isn't this one better?
No, mine's way bigger too.
Go for it.
Whoa! Me too.
Guys.
–Here. –You brought us food.
–Whoa, what's this? –Let me get one.
It looks good.
Don't eat it.
It's not chicken.
It's detergent soap.
Pretty good, huh?
Where'd you get it?
Where else? I made it.
We made it to promote the restaurant.
I brought a few just for you.
You look really happy. What's up?
No way!
Work's killing me.
Arm, legs, shoulder, knees and hands.
I ache everywhere and I'm being exploited.
Right?
Oh good. I found out some information you'd be interested in.
I was afraid it'd be useless.
What?
A man came to my office, and he said tonight...
...all kitchens on this street must clean their kitchens.
He said that and left.
–What? Who was he? How nosey. –Are we getting inspected tomorrow?
Yes, Grandpa said to tell all the restaurants.
But I didn't tell yours.
Is that all?
Okay, I'll tell him.
You fool.
You have to keep quiet.
That way your boss will be inspected without warning.
That won't work.
We don't have customers so we're always cleaning.
And we opened recently.
–It's very clean. –Bo–a.
It's not as easy as you think.
You don't pass inspections just by cleaning.
Do you have a lid for your trash can?
Do we?
You need that.
The floor.
Sheesh.
They're very strict.
A newbie who gets inspected always gets something wrong.
One hundred percent.
But it's really very clean.
Then do something.
Make the place dirty.
Somewhere the boss won't see but where they will always inspect like...
The kitchen hall.
Right.
Anyway, fines are a given...
...and if worst comes to worst, he may have to close up shop.
Really?
What's so fun about all this?
Do I seem like I'm having fun?
You didn't know?
Did I?
At my desk job, people always asked why I looked so sad.
But these days...
...life is fun.
It's okay for him to go under.
You said it was like a hobby of some prince.
Do something.
Make the place dirty.
What?
Who's there?
Bo–a.
What are you doing?
Boss.
