(Rainbow after the Rain)
- Good to see you. - Good to see you.
(Good to see you.)
That's good. I like how you're enthusiastic.
Let's do this together.
- Why won't you do it? - We'll do it.
- Do it with me. - 1, 2, 3.
- Yes! - Yes! Good.
Actually, the new member today...
is my son,
Henry's friend.
(Henry's friend)
Actually, I've met him before.
You've met all male members...
personally.
- He's my friend. - Yes.
- He's handsome. - He's handsome.
- He's tall. - He's tall.
- He's buff. - He's buff.
- He's also a good cook. - He's also a good cook.
- He's a chef. - Chef Choi Hyun Seok?
(Chef Choi Hyun Seok?)
He's married.
- Oh, that's right. - He has daughters also.
Since he's your friend, introduce him yourself.
Everyone.
- "Everyone." - My friend.
- Chef... - Okay.
Austin Kang!
Please come out!
Welcome
(Handsome)
(Delicate cooking skill)
(A talented chef who got second place...)
(in a cooking competition)
(Chef Austin Kang)
- Welcome - Hop in.
- Welcome to Rainbow Club - Put your legs here.
(He almost hurdled over the coach.)
Welcome
(A coach with luxurious music)
Welcome
(A crab-walking welcoming ceremony)
(Dancing)
Aren't I heavy?
Let's put him down.
- Let's throw this. - The mic broke.
- Welcome. - Wait.
(Grunting)
- It's like you're hitting me. - No, it fell out.
Where should I...
Don't fight.
(The newbie doesn't know what to do.)
- Nice to meet you. - What's wrong with you?
- Hello. - Hello.
Please introduce yourself one more time to the viewers.
Hello. I'm Austin Kang.
I'm Chef Austin Kang.
I've been living alone for six years now.
- Okay. - Applause.
(Tilting his head)
Actually, we've seen him...
in Henry's video before.
(He's a close friend of Henry who visited Henry's house before.)
How do you feel to be here in person?
Don't talk to him.
Why not?
Because when he talks...
- Go ahead. - Is it frustrating?
- No, talk. - He's doing fine.
How do you feel to be here in person?
- Watch. - It's nice.
See? This is what happens.
What? That was nice and neat.
- Can you elaborate? - Elaborate.
- Tell us how you feel. - Now?
I'm a bit nervous right now.
Yet, this is the number one show...
in MBC.
- Well... - MBC?
(He's feeling nervous.)
Something else. It's cut out.
(Are the best friends going to be okay?)
"Austin Power".
(It's 4am in the morning when everyone's asleep.)
(One person is sleeping as expected.)
Actually, I've never seen this before either.
He moved recently. This is my first time seeing his house.
How long have you been living in that house?
It's been almost...
four months? Sis months?
- Sis months? - Sis months?
- Sis months? - What's sis months?
- 6 months. - 6 months.
- 6 months. - It's been 6 months.
How long has it been since you moved to Korea?
- It's been almost 6 years now. - 6 years. I see.
But I didn't have a chance to learn Korean.
I started working in the kitchen in Korea.
Most of them speak English to me.
All chefs...
learned cooking abroad.
- For example, Australia... - You're also a French chef.
Hello. Have a nice day.
What's that?
- What is that? - That's my alarm.
- Your alarm speaks in English? - My morning alarm.
(Fumbling)
Isn't it early in the morning?
Yes, it's 4am.
I have to wake up to go to a market.
He wakes up early every day and goes to a market.
My restaurant closes at around 1am,
then I take a rest.
- And I wake up at 4am. - Hold on.
- Then you only sleep for 3 hours. - You only sleep for 3 hours?
Yes, so after I come back from the market,
I go back to sleep again.
- After you come back? - Yes.
(His morning starts earlier than others.)
(Groaning)
(Staggering)
What's here?
I live in a studio right now.
I kept moving.
I've lived in an apartment...
and a basement before.
When I first became a chef,
chefs...
- don't get paid much. - Right.
You know how tough it was.
- You know... - It was...
It was really tough.
- Did Henry help you a lot? - Yes.
- He helped me moving. - Really?
Sometimes the furnace froze.
I was like, "Is it okay to sleep at your house?"
- He used to sleep at my house. - He's a true best friend.
Now that I've found a good studio,
I wanted to make it like home.
(Austin's house decoration style)
The red table gives the European feel.
- The European feel? - Yes.
(It's very simple.)
Only that part looks European. It reminds me of Paris.
I wanted to give the painted walls...
- an artistic vibe. - Artistic?
He's all about the vibe.
Oh, that's what you mean.
I'm in a restaurant every day, so...
- It's nice though. - Really?
And grass...
- like Bohemian style. - Bohemian?
I wanted to make that feel.
(Drooping)
- He has his own style. - It's not bad.
He always tries hard to make it look fancy.
(European, artistic)
If you mix many kinds in Korea,
- we call it a hodgepodge. - A hodgepodge?
(It looks a bit countrified.)
It looks countrified?
That was too honest.
Does it look countrified?
I like it.
Is it countrified?
- Oh, shoot. - Wait.
No.
- He wasn't swearing. - I wasn't swearing.
He was like, "Oh, chef."
- "Shoot." - Shoot is not a curse.
Yes, shoot.
(He sits in front of his desk early in the morning.)
(Groaning)
(I must do the work I'm supposed to do.)
It looks like...
- he's going to turn into Superman. - Clark Kent.
(Unknown memo on the screen)
That's my recipe.
I keep working on it.
He brings that notebook everywhere.
(He writes something down seriously.)
- One bass. - Oh, a bass.
- Manila clams. - Manila clams.
Shrimp.
Today, I need to get seafood to prepare a seafood dish.
I'm going to taste it after making a dish.
It's a little tough.
- Who did you learn Korean from? - But I'm still young. It's fine.
Why do you talk rough?
I learned it from Joon Park.
Joon Park?
You learned from a tough person.
What else do I need?
(He's working on a new recipe.)
Scallops.
Sca... Scarops.
Scallops?
- "Scarlops." - Scarlops?
- Ribs? - It's scallops.
- Scallops. - Scallops?
Mussals. Mussals are good too.
Mussals?
(Mussals)
- "Mussals". - It's mussels.
Mussels?
It's mussals.
(After the mussal stage...)
Get them in the market, and the rest...
on my own.
All right. Let's do that. Okay.
You made a list before going to the market?
- You made a list. - Yes.
(He gets ready to go out.)
Oh, my gosh.
(Rubbing)
It's cold water to reduce the puffiness.
(After a simple wash up...)
Where are my sweat pants?
They're in here.
Why do you look for them inside the washer?
I'd smell like fish from the market.
Right. That happens. When you have nothing else to wear.
No, because it gets dirty.
- You're wearing what you wore? - Yes.
It's okay to wear it one more time.
(He even puts on what's still wet. Dried clothing is nothing.)
I need to go.
(Wake up.)
Okay. Let's go.
- Which market are you going to? - Noryangjin.
Oh, Noryangjin?
Noryangjin.
(He's off to get ingredients.)
(There are barely any cars on the road.)
(Morning drive with jazz)
It's morning...
(After driving in the darkness,)
and...
(day dawns.)
Okay. Okay.
(Greeting the dawn,)
All right, Austin. Let's do it.
(he arrives at the fish market.)
(He opens the trunk right away after parking.)
(He grabs something.)
(Rubber boots)
- Oh, boots. - He needs to work hard.
Why are you putting on the rubber boots?
- Because the ground is wet. - Yes.
But you're not going to the sea.
- The ground. - The ground.
(The slippers he wore...)
(go to the trunk instead of boots.)
(Perfect TPO for the fish market)
He looks like an owner now.
(Let's go buy the ingredients.)
(It's fresh.)
It's really fresh.
(Flapping)
(They're from all over the country.)
(The market is busy even at dawn.)
Is that the one you were talking about?
Where they talk fast?
Right. They go like this.
Get it at this price.
20 dollars.
- She's very good. - Is that right?
- Am I right? - Yes.
(Even the businessman approves.)
- Who is that? - Who is that?
- Who is that? - He knows how to dress up.
- Who is that? - He's my friend.
He helps me in the market...
since he's a Japanese chef.
- I also need some shrimp. - Look here.
That one. Oh, hello.
Hello, sir.
- You know all the owners. - Yes.
- Clams? - I need clams.
Hello.
Ma'am. Do you sell 2kg of Manila clams?
- How much? - You call her ma'am.
12 dollars.
- Are they domestic? - Yes, domestic.
I'll get that.
And I'll also get 2kg of short-necked clams.
Did she say 15 dollars?
- 20 dollars. - Yes.
- 15 dollars. - How much is this one?
Just give me nine dollars.
Nine dollars?
I could make ceviche with it.
Baby octopus.
(Outing in the market gives him ideas.)
- I'll give it to him. - Okay.
35 dollars plus 9 dollars. 44 dollars.
Here.
You don't forget the receipt.
- No. - It's a must.
Bye.
- Bye. - Thank you.
Are you getting salmon today?
- I should. - Okay.
We could split the salmon in half.
- Split the salmon? - Yes.
Ame.
- Ame? - What up, brother?
Ame?
(A foreigner friend)
- What's going on? - Hang on.
- Hang on. - Hang on.
- Is that Noryangjin? - What's going on?
- Is that really Noryangjin? - Yes.
- Isn't that LA? - No, it's not.
This is Noryangjin.
How many salmons?
I'm going to get only one.
- How much it is per kg? - 15 dollars per kg.
15 dollars. It's 15 dollars.
(Impressed)
He's very fluent in Korean. That's cool.
- 15 dollars per kg? - He's very fluent.
- He's really fluent. - They switch right away.
- How are you? - That one looks good.
- This is good. - That's a very fresh salmon.
- 6.7kg? - Yes, it's 6.7kg.
When did you get this?
That one looks fresher.
They're both fresh.
It's the same size.
Why didn't you speak in English?
- They don't speak English? - They aren't good at English.
- They don't speak English? - Either French or Korean.
- I won't get that. - How much is the bass?
- 10 dollars. - 10 dollars?
- I'll take that one. - 10 dollars for a bass.
Then I'll take this one.
What about snapper? It's 10 dollars.
- Snapper? - Yes.
- He has the business tactic. - Yes.
He quietly says, "What about snapper?"
- Only good business people do that. - Right.
They even have the Noryangjin business people look.
I don't need snappers today.
(That's for the next time.)
- We're not getting snappers. - Why not?
Salmon.
- Bye. - Okay. Peace out, brother.
- See you. - See you.
- Bye. - Goodbye.
He's very polite to customers.
"Goodbye."
I'll go put these in the car.
- Okay. - Call my restaurant later.
Okay. Can you split them?
Okay. And I'll cut the salmon in half.
Okay.
You're splitting what you bought together.
Yes.
(He browses for ingredients alone.)
(He's a curious chef.)
How am I supposed to peel them?
- It's sea urchin. - Yes.
Scoop it with a spoon.
When those who enjoy cooking see fresh ingredients,
they get cooking ideas.
I get a lot of ideas in that market.
Maybe six? It's only for a test.
(He doesn't forget to buy ingredients for a new menu.)
Is there something to eat?
I know the owner of that place.
Ma'am. What's an assorted combo?
- What's in it? - I didn't know about that place.
But I don't sell it now.
No? Then what do you sell now?
I can't because of late night snack.
In that hour,
she only sells late night snack instead of deep fried food.
What is that in the screen?
They're all side dishes.
- You share them all together? - You share them together.
For drinking.
Oh, that's like a silbi restaurant.
There used to be many restaurants...
where you can eat all the food as long as you buy drinks.
- Yes. - Like a buffet?
I'm okay with side dishes.
I'm okay with bibim guksu.
It's for drinking.
I'll just have it without alcohol.
I'll have one sikhye.
How are you going to eat if they charge you for alcohol?
- That's sikhye. - That's sikhye.
Because I had to drive.
People eat fast and leave fast.
(Then the main stage is empty.)
(He only smacks his lips.)
(Then he plucks up his courage and says...)
Is it okay for you to eat that?
(Is it okay for you to eat that?)
What did you say?
- "Is it okay for you to eat that?" - Is it okay for you to eat that?
You should say, "Is it okay to eat that?"
- Is it okay to eat that? - Yes.
What a surprise to see Henry teaching someone Korean.
Well...
You wrote coldware store instead of a hardware store.
Who do you think you are to teach him?
People get confused.
(That's cute.)
Hey.
(He dominates the main stage.)
I'll have it while waiting.
- That's a very good system. - Yes.
I know where that is.
It's very interesting to see it.
You're really enjoying it.
(Then a new party member appears.)
They're joining after work.
Yes.
- Oh, that looks good. - Oh, sashimi.
(Sushi is up.)
That looks good.
That looks really good.
- Try it. - Really?
Go ahead. It's fine.
He suddenly gave it to me.
That's the love of a market.
- I just washed my hands. - Really?
- Isn't it amazing? - It's amazing.
- Have one more. - Really?
- They're very nice. - Are you sure?
- With soy sauce. - After this,
Yes.
(After garlic...)
- eat this. - Okay.
It's very good.
In Korea, we share nice food.
It was very good. It was chewy.
(Exclaiming)
The market people are very nice.
They're very nice people.
That looks good.
That's a lot.
(Handful)
Just a little bit please. I'll just have a half of it.
- He hates wasting food. - I had a lot of side dishes.
He doesn't like to waste food since he cooks.
Thank you.
(Thank you.)
(He sits down reverently.)
(Eating)
I want it now.
- That looks good. - It was very good.
You know how to enjoy it. My goodness.
- It was good. - You're good with chopsticks.
(He finishes bibim guksu.)
- Have a good day. - Right.
Thank you.
My son graduated from Korea University.
(Laughing)
- Out of nowhere? - Yes.
Old people do that.
After drinking, they start boasting about their children.
He got the doctor's degree.
(He responds by reacting.)
I'm from America.
- You're from Japan? - I'm from America.
- America? - He's asking if you're from Japan.
I was born in America.
I'm living here alone without my parents.
I own a restaurant.
(I came to Korea alone and run a restaurant.)
I see.
- You went through a lot. - Yes.
How grateful.
- Sorry for touching you. - It's all right.
- They're like a family. - Yes.
America is more of independence.
It's okay to succeed alone.
But in Korea, they're more like a family.
- "Let's succeed all together." - Yes, let's succeed together.
Let me pay.
- How much is it? - Just five dollars.
I also had side dishes.
(I also had side dishes.)
- You paid more? - Yes.
She was very nice even though she was busy.
If you do something nice,
- something nice happens again. - Yes.
- Right. - Right.
(The sun is high up outside the market.)
(Austin sings from the morning.)
- Are you good at singing? - Well, that's...
- He's good. - Really?
- Can we hear it? - Sing for us.
I'll do my best.
- Give him a big hand. - I'll give it a go.
Sing "Yeosu Night Sea".
(Singing)
(What?)
This is a bit...
Hold on.
Why is it so slow?
Is the tape stretched?
(He sounds like a stretched tape.)
- He's doing his best. Listen. - A beautiful story
It's just how it feels.
- "How it feels"? - "How it feels"?
Sing the part with high notes.
(Vocalizing)
What's this?
(He sings the high notes without moving.)
The next part.
(With you)
(This is crazy.)
His singing reflects his personality.
That's enough!
(The bulldozer never stops.)
I think that's enough.
The problem is that he has too much confidence.
It doesn't exactly look like he has a lot of confidence.
I think he just does it.
- He does everything he's told to. - He doesn't look confident.
He doesn't look confident.
I'm not confident.
I want to perfect...
my Korean pronunciation.
That's why I listen to Korean songs.
But I talk instead of singing.
- That's right. - 1, 2, 3.
"Yes, I was like that."
"Because I loved you..."
(This looks like...)
(a dictation test.)
(When Si Kyung sings the words...)
"Don't you see?"
"I've been holding on..."
"I've been holding on."
I started learning Korean after I came to Korea.
- It was hard. It really was. - Of course.
These days, I'm learning from...
- people older than me. - Do you mean Joon Park?
That's right.
(Joon sure is brilliant at Korean.)
(When most people go to work,)
(Austin comes home from the market.)
You must be so tired.
You do feel tired,
but you also feel proud after doing something early in the morning.
You're right.
(He goes to his desk right away.)
All right.
(His diary...)
(and a stack of receipts)
You organize your receipts right away?
Yes, before I forget.
Crayfish.
- What did you write? - What did you write?
- What's that? - Crayfish?
Crayfish?
Oh, crayfish.
(He is still confused.)
Why don't you just write in English?
In the beginning, I did. But I want to get used to Korean.
For his employees too.
(He writes down the sellers' names too.)
This was 2kg.
(The amount is written down too.)
20 dollars.
(You're very meticulous.)
The sashimi price changes every day.
I want to be able to see how much it cost on a certain day.
[VIU Ver] E296 I Live Alone "New Member Chef Austin Kang" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
- You're going back to bed? - Yes, when I'm done organizing.
(He goes back to bed around 7am.)
(He puts in earplugs before going to bed.)
(He puts a pain relief patch on the back of his neck.)
All right. I should get some sleep.
(He wears a warming eye mask too.)
- Is that your routine these days? - Yes.
(He hopes his sleep won't be interrupted.)
(He falls asleep right away.)
(Moving)
(Tossing and turning)
I sleep like that? I didn't know.
That means your sleep quality is not good.
- Really? - He's not getting much sleep.
He's not.
That's interesting.
(The sun is high up.)
(Groaning)
(What time is it?)
(He gets up right away.)
(He seems to be in a hurry.)
(The eye mask is still hanging from his ear.)
What's the mask doing there?
What's this?
(He goes straight to the kitchen.)
(He is looking for something in a hurry.)
(Laundry detergent?)
- Right. - I started doing the laundry.
This color...
- Oh, my. - Oh, man.
(That looks unfamiliar.)
He's like me in that respect.
They never blurred your underwear.
Why don't they do that?
(Realism)
(He starts the washing machine.)
- What's that? - I work out.
When I don't have time...
or feel tired, I work out at home.
Cooks are like athletes.
If you don't train yourself, you get injured.
That's why so many cooks have slipped discs.
Oh, my.
You have a great body.
(He worked out with Henry too.)
- That time... - You can do that?
(He's definitely lifted a lot of weights.)
- Oh, my. - I often worked out with Austin.
- Austin is Henry's workout teacher. - Austin is my workout partner.
He's really good.
(Na Rae's face is reacting to Austin's hot body.)
(The guys with no muscles are shocked too.)
(His special home training gave him a great body.)
(Burpees improve his strength.)
You do that at home?
- He does that on the streets too. - Burpees?
We do burpees in a special way.
- Should we show them? - Should we?
The left, right thing.
- We do it a lot. - "Special burpees"?
- We... - Hold on.
- Okay, let's go. Do just 10. - Left, right first?
1, 2, 3, go.
(They jump to the left, right, front, back, and center.)
One.
(The moves look difficult.)
(One man is watching carefully.)
(They're in perfect sync.)
That's amazing.
Two.
Okay.
- You said you'd do 10. - What?
- We should do 10. - No.
- That's enough. - Kian84.
You love working out.
- He's really good. - Really?
- He's so good. - Kian84.
- Let's see it. - Okay.
- Here we go. - Yes.
1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7.
Two...
(He raises his arms.)
- Hold on. - Two,
- three... - I mean...
- 5, 6... - Jump!
7, 8...
(After doing two, he finishes with a clap.)
- Okay. - Good job.
Are you supposed to show your belly?
That was exhausting.
If you do 10 every day, you'll become so fit.
(Right after the burpees, he lies down.)
He has a lot of self-discipline.
It's not easy to do that.
That's so hard.
(Exhaling)
If you breathe out,
- your abs tighten. - They tighten.
- They tighten up. - You have to make a sound.
(Relax and then breathe out.)
(Grab your abs and breathe out.)
(He is about to explode.)
(He is breathing heavily.)
(Squats for the lower body)
(He is comparable to the energy queen.)
He's full of energy.
In the middle of eating,
he suddenly starts doing squats.
(Hurrying)
(What is he doing with a chair?)
What are you doing?
As I don't have weights at home...
(Using a chair, he raises the workout intensity.)
You use all kinds of items at home to work out.
19, 20.
Good job. All right.
It's interval training.
How many sets do you do?
- 3 sets. - 3 sets?
(His high spirit reminds you of someone.)
(Actually, they're like brothers.)
We're very good friends.
(Yunho taught Austin about passion.)
(You pass.)
(The passionate man is doing something with the table this time.)
What are you doing with the table?
(He lies down while holding the table.)
I'm bench-pressing.
(It's like bench-pressing.)
That's really heavy.
(He lifts the table to train his chest.)
- I can see why you're so fit. - Not having the equipment...
is just an excuse.
I'll just keep giving excuses.
(After bench-pressing with the table...)
(He must want to take a break. He heads to the fridge.)
(Champagne?)
- You drink right after workout? - No, that's not it.
Instead of dumbbells?
I need to train my arms.
(They're refrigerated dumbbells.)
(Biceps workout using champagne)
There's a risk you'll want to drink it.
(Creative workout using items at home)
(Triceps workout using champagne)
(Champagne shadowboxing)
If you open those bottles, it'll become a mess.
Here.
Nice.
Row.
- Row. - You don't need any equipment.
(He lifts the chair over his head.)
This is shoulder press.
(Shoulder press will give him wide shoulders.)
(He does all upper body workouts with a chair alone.)
(He finishes the workout in a sweaty state.)
(Under the poor water pressure,)
(he shows off muscles that belong in a movie.)
- My goodness. - Did they film this?
(Action!)
(He looks cool.)
(This is how a sexy man gets ready to go out.)
(He shows self-love as he dries his hair.)
(His facial features look nice.)
(He checks his six-pack abs.)
- He is fit. - He has an incredible body.
(I am...)
(pretty handsome.)
It looks like he is drunk on his looks.
You thought you were handsome, right?
Well...
- Yes. - Okay.
Kian84, when you look in the mirror, do you think you are handsome?
I don't look in the mirror these days.
It ruins my mood.
(It ruins my mood to see my own face.)
(It's time to put on his shoes and go out.)
(He contaminates the floor.)
(He ends up going further in.)
(Tiptoeing)
He is too lazy to take off his shoes.
You know what it's like.
Taking off your shoes would be simple,
- but you do this instead. - You walk on the sides.
You do this instead.
Taking off your shoes would take less time.
- Sometimes, you do this. - You crawl on your knees.
- You crawl on your knees. - That's right.
You walk later on because your knees hurt.
That's right.
(He succeeds to get his bag.)
(He takes careful steps again.)
(It's "Mission: Impossible" in a tiny studio.)
(An action spy movie in his own studio)
(He completes the mission and escapes safely.)
(Agent Austin heads somewhere.)
(The traditional market that represents Korea,)
(which boasts of its history)
(Dynamic and extraordinary tourist attraction)
Can I send you photos for the concepts of the plates?
I will send you photos of some plates.
He is so diligent.
He must be tired from working out.
He does a lot in a day.
Gosh, look at this.
(The place is filled with a variety of plates.)
- This place is fun. - It really is.
I really want to buy plates.
- Sir. - Hey.
- It's good to see you. - Hello.
- Have you been well? - Yes. Please take a seat.
(These plates await a new owner.)
(There are various shapes, sizes, and colors.)
- This is a good choice, right? - Yes.
A lot of people use this.
- This one will go well with juice. - Juice, yes.
- I will get these two first. - Okay.
- You don't want this one. - No.
(This time, he checks out the plates.)
(There are plates of all shapes and colors.)
The thing is,
I'm not looking for something posh,
but totally casual.
How about these ones?
- This one looks pretty. - It's nice.
It will be good for bibimbap.
- No, that one is for... Yes. - Fondue or soup.
It's nice.
- It's pretty. - It's a bibimbap bowl.
You can find more over there. Take a look around.
These are modern.
These are nice.
Then... Hold on.
(Austin sets the table.)
See how they look.
- Shall I do that? - Yes.
That's right. You should do that.
He can see how they look...
- together. - Right.
You need to worry about that to run a restaurant.
Tableware is very important.
It's a part of the presentation.
All right.
- I will take this plate. - Take a few and see.
(He finishes shopping for plates.)
(Hairtail Alley)
Namdaemun Market is famous for its braised hairtail.
Braised hairtail.
Are you here alone? What would you like?
Braised hairtail, please.
All right, I'll serve you that.
- I love going... - My goodness.
to the restaurants for taxi drivers.
The dish is served in a nickel silver pot.
Gosh, it looks delicious. I will eat braised hairtail today.
(Food fills the table.)
It looks delicious.
(He takes a picture.)
There are good restaurants at every market.
Mangwon Market has chicken gomtang.
Mapo Market has tasty tteokbokki...
and old-fashioned toast.
Shindang-dong has tteokbokki.
Bangsan Market has...
a really good bossam restaurant.
- A bossam restaurant? - At Bangsan Market?
There is a really good bossam restaurant.
It looks delicious.
You can mix rice with it.
- You can put radish on the top. - That's right.
(He takes a piece of hairtail to his plate.)
It's really big.
You know how to take the bones out.
- Yes. There are many bones. - That's right.
(He puts it on his rice.)
- Dried laver. - That's right. Dried laver.
That's right.
(He seasons the rice with soup.)
You know how to eat properly.
(He takes a bite.)
(He dips the rice in soup and takes another bite.)
(Here comes steamed egg.)
- Steamed egg. - My goodness.
The color is rich.
It looks delicious.
(He blows on it since it's hot.)
It was so tasty.
It looks so tasty. This is driving me crazy.
I'm getting hungry.
Gosh, it's tasty.
(Braised hairtail)
(His stomach is full after lunch.)
He must have eaten too much.
(After shopping and eating at Namdaemun Market,)
Braised hairtail.
(Austin heads somewhere.)
(He carries bags...)
(into a building.)
- It's his restaurant. - Right.
It's my old restaurant.
I don't cook there anymore. I just do the tasting for menus.
I heard the business didn't go well.
- Back then, - Don't hurt his feelings.
I struggled a lot...
because I worked alone.
I went to the restaurant...
- and found a problem. - What problem?
He is...
fine.
- He is. - Seriously.
- He doesn't have a problem. - No.
The dishes were delicious. They were really delicious.
As we ate, we went, "Why isn't this restaurant a hit?"
- He only cooks in the kitchen. - That's right.
- It's natural for a chef to cook. - No, no.
He should have approached the customers and went,
"This recipe was developed in the 1980s..."
He should have given an explanation.
He needed to be like those aunties at a pub.
I talk as I cook.
"Sit down, sit down. What do you want to eat?"
I'm like those aunties at a pub.
(Shall I start cooking?)
- Will you develop a new menu? - Yes.
It's for a different restaurant.
I'm really curious.
I was very curious about how chefs develop...
their menus.
(He changes...)
(and puts on an apron.)
Na Rae.
Men who cook are cool.
That's right.
(Sharpening his knife)
(He cleans the sea bass first.)
He knows how to clean fish.
(Austin cleans the sea bass without hesitation.)
(Concentrating)
- You fillet it yourself. - Yes.
(He cleans the sea bass in no time.)
(His knife dances on the cutting board.)
(He cooks sea bass in oil and butter.)
He doesn't cook the way...
he was taught.
He goes with his style.
I suppose it's different from how other chefs cook.
It looks so delicious.
What will you cook next time?
A shrimp dish.
What will you make with shrimp?
Bruschetta.
- You will put it on bread. - Yes.
- Hi. - Hey.
- She is my assistant. - Is everything going well?
Is she a chef?
- She is a pastry chef. - I brought some bread.
Would you lay them out here and label them?
Sure.
(Freshly-baked bread)
(They look delicious.)
- This is... - Hey.
Hi.
- Hello. Have you been well? - Hello.
I baked some bread.
- It's from her new bakery. - Who is that?
You know him, right?
You know,
among foreigners in Korea,
he is like Baek Jong Won.
(Throwing it in)
It looks delicious.
- That bread is delicious. - This is...
- the first dish. - It looks really tasty.
Shouldn't you remove the heads?
You can eat the heads.
There are more people who don't eat the heads.
- Seafood stew looks nice. - This one is good.
It's like Italian jjamppong.
- It's good with bread. - Yes.
(The presentation gets a pass.)
The presentation is important.
Try it, and tell me if you need more.
That looks so good.
(They try the first dish, bruschetta.)
(How will Austin's new dish taste?)
(To be continued in Part 2)
Try it, and tell me if you need more.
That looks so good.
(They try the first dish, bruschetta.)
I get nervous. I get really nervous.
I kept thinking, "Is it good? Is it not good?"
"What would they think?"
(He looks like a contestant waiting for a judge's comment.)
Right. He was on a cooking competition show.
(He feels like a contestant.)
(Mr. Baek of overseas Korean community tastes the food.)
It's really good.
- Really? - It's really good.
- He says it's really good. - It's really good.
Nice.
(Mika is satisfied too.)
It looks really delicious.
But the head...
- I should take it out, shouldn't I? - You have to take it out.
- Really? - It's inconvenient.
You were right.
(Bravo.)
- You see, Si Eon... - You're good.
can't cook, but he's good at criticizing food.
Of course. It got me this far.
Right.
How should I eat cioppino?
That looks good.
- Cioppino? - Do we use a spoon?
Use a spoon.
(As soon as he holds the spoon,)
(the judging begins.)
I've been on a cooking competition too.
You get the most nervous when the judges eat your food.
- Right. - You get nervous.
(He's nervous.)
(What would the judges say?)
(He likes it.)
- It's good. - Yes. It's good.
I think it will appeal to old men more than it does to girls.
- It's what old men like. - Yes.
I didn't drink, but I feel like I did.
It's like a hangover cure.
It's good.
But when this was served,
the temperature was too low.
While the customers take photos, it will cool down.
- Right. - Then the taste will change.
- That's... - He looks at it...
- with a different view. - Yes.
You're right.
(He prepares another dish.)
What is he cooking now?
(He cleans baby octopus.)
(Then he dresses it in various seasonings.)
That would be delicious.
(He garnishes it with marinated tomato.)
(The third dish is Austin's ceviche.)
(He also showcases the bass dish, which was the hardest to make.)
Butter.
(Austin's bass steak)
Okay. This is ceviche. I got it from the market in the morning.
You can have this.
This is the main dish, grilled fish.
(They carefully taste the dishes.)
Nice.
It's good.
(The last dishes pass.)
But personally,
I want it to be more acidic.
- More acidic? - Do you want white wine vinegar?
- Or... - He's very sharp.
Thanks.
(He splashes a generous amount of lemon juice.)
(They try again.)
It's very acid.
(It's much better.)
Nice.
Will you be actually selling those dishes?
- I'm still working on the menu. - You're still working on the menu.
Watching that, I thought you should come up with...
- dishes tailored to men. - Rice dishes.
You need 1 to 2 dishes...
- What are some of those dishes? - like that.
Why don't you recommend some dishes then?
I want something like...
(I'm listening, Captain Idiot.)
Since it's a Western restaurant, he should serve kimchi fried rice.
Kimchi fried rice.
Braised hairtail would be good too.
Wait. Everyone.
- It's... - Kimchi fried rice?
How can a French restaurant serve braised hairtail?
In the past, Austin... For two years,
he worked in an underground kitchen every day...
for more than 12 hours.
Towards the end, he even worked...
at a French restaurant after the 12-hour shift.
- That's what he did. - He worked really hard.
- Did he have 2 jobs? - He had 2 jobs.
On my day-offs, I did internship at a French restaurant.
- For free. - To learn.
Yes. I was learning for free.
Even on day offs, he came to work and made sauces.
I was so grateful.
You met a lot of people through that.
Right. I met Henry.
He met Henry.
Henry saw me...
working really hard in the kitchen.
When I used to live in the basement flat, he helped me move.
He guided me about which path to take.
He said I should go on a survival show.
I said I wasn't ready. I said I had to learn more.
- Henry recommended him. - He just pushed me.
He made it to the semi-final round.
- Really? - Semi-final round.
(Austin made it to the semi-final round.)
We wrote his application.
You are true friends.
- You are such good friends. - He helped me a lot.
It was really tough. My family wasn't even here.
It was really stressful.
I got separated with my family.
I didn't know what to do.
I wondered if I should go back to the US.
But when I went inside the kitchen and started cooking,
all the stress went away.
I stayed with other kitchen staffs 12 hours a day.
Right.
They felt like a family to me.
So it felt good.
The toughest time was...
when I got separated from my family.
My house was gone.
So even if I were to go back to the US,
(With the house gone, he had nowhere to go back to.)
I had nowhere to go.
I began cooking at the toughest time of my life.
I thought this was my future.
I thought I'd do it until I die.
I worked really hard,
and I got paid less than other people.
So I did modelling on the side.
I did it to pay rents.
The reason why I cook even if it's tough...
is that it's my passion. It's my love.
When I cook, I concentrate, and I give it love.
Then it becomes delicious.
I will continue to cook until I die.
I want to show people...
my passion and love for cooking.
I don't want to look cool. I just want to show that I love cooking.
When customers eat my food,
and when they tell me that they really enjoyed it, I feel so happy.
Sometimes there must be customers who really hate your food.
(What if they say it's really bad?)
That's still fine.
I love getting feedback.
- Feedback. - Yes.
You can't possibly please everyone.
You must know too, Kian84
Not everyone enjoys your webtoon.
- These days, - Nobody enjoys it.
nobody seems to enjoy it.
I like it.
(My brother.)
You don't read webtoon.
Just keep doing what you're doing.
When you keep working hard,
you will get good results.
- All right? - You will do well. I know it.
Okay?
Cheers for our future.
(Chef Austin Kang's Live-and-die-for-cooking Life)
(I Live Alone)
Worn and old apartment flat.
Let's see if he can completely transform it.
(Fast formatting is the concept.)
(It's life formatting project,)
(during which he will format the owner's past too.)
The change began with the jungle-like dressing room.
(The two people's hard work...)
(created this neat dressing room.)
(But that wasn't all.)
The bathroom was like an obstacle course.
His master bedroom was like a messy storage.
How did it change?
(They get back to work.)
- Next is the master bedroom. - The master bedroom?
Let's change the master bedroom.
It'll help you keep it clean.
You just have to take this off.
- The mattress won't get dirty. - You're right.
(He goes on the bed to straighten it out.)
- Kian84, your feet. - Your feet.
Your feet.
(We shouldn't have seen this.)
(Black socks)
No.
- Go and wash your feet. - Okay.
Look how dirty they are.
They'll get dirty again anyway.
But we're making the bed.
I won't step on the bed.
- My goodness. - It's been...
almost four years since I bought the bed covers.
It was the first time I changed it.
What about before that?
- I washed it twice. - This is unbelievable.
- You washed it? - Twice?
- I washed it twice. - Once every other year?
That's why my body has been itchy.
Does it go this way? Oh, you're right.
Who bought that?
Choong Jae sent me a list of the things I need...
and I bought them.
How did you know I like this color?
I'm matching it with the color of your wall.
- Kian84 navy. - Kian84 navy.
- It's nice. - It fits you well.
The color fits you.
It looks like it wants to die.
That's nice.
- Goodness. - It looks nice.
(Everyone marvels at it.)
(He looks especially relieved.)
- He is the happiest. - Why?
Is this time painful for you?
Henry is very clean.
Yes, he is.
This is so frustrating.
(1. Understands there are people like that)
(2. Can't help but sigh)
(3. Laughs in disbelief)
(4. Refuses to watch)
- I want to go into the screen. - I see.
I want to help.
I still have a lot left to do.
- There's a lot to do. - This is great news.
- He still has a lot to do. - That's wonderful.
Come over anytime.
I still have the equipment.
(A surprise from Choong Jae)
- Oh, what's this? - A light.
(He even bought a bedside table.)
Can I have your tablet and charger?
Since you always sleep on the floor.
Isn't it because you use the outlet over there?
- Yes. - You fall asleep using your phone.
I think that's why you end up sleeping on the floor.
I'd like to prevent that.
That's why I left the charger next to the bed...
along with a bedside table.
- He's very considerate. - Leave this hear.
- I'll use it well. - Leave a book here too.
Okay.
This is how it works.
It's pretty.
You try it.
(Satisfied)
(Choong Jae is happy.)
This is amazing.
- Isn't it nice? - It's really nice.
- It's very pretty. - That light changes the mood.
It was very interesting.
It's become cozy.
Just pull out the nails.
- The nails? - Yes, the nails.
I'll have to take out the nails.
(He gets rid of the nails on the wall.)
This makes me feel so relieved.
(He washes the cover of the light.)
I washed off the bugs that were in it.
(He also washes his feet while he's at it.)
I feel like washing my feet.
(He gets rid of the stickers that don't glow in the dark anymore.)
(He rinses it thoroughly.)
Washing it makes it as good as new.
- Of course. - Goodness.
It turned white.
- The room became brighter. - You're right.
That's nice and clean.
- It made me feel good. - You look happy.
(He is moved.)
I'll give you a tip. The light is white.
If you have a transparent paper,
you can put it on the light to create a warm ambience.
Yellow paper?
- Henry, come over to my place. - What?
- What? - He wants you to bring it over.
- Come over. - Do you want me to do it for you?
I still have a lot to do.
Let's watch it.
(Let's watch the video.)
- Done with the master bedroom. - Done.
Thank you.
(His bedroom looked dark like a warehouse.)
(His bed must have given him nightmares.)
It's so pretty.
Do you sleep well?
I only sleep on the bed now.
The room is cozy.
I used to go in just to sleep,
but now I enjoy sleeping there.
Next is the bathroom.
- The bathroom. - The bathroom is next.
Bathroom?
- It's horrid. - That's the worst.
(Relic from the Bronze Age?)
This is a total disaster.
Can you do anything about that?
- "Kill me." - "Kill me."
(The bathroom looks like it has to be at the ER.)
(What is the first step of saving the bathroom?)
- I ordered a new mirror. - What's this?
- You did? - Yes.
(Using thick double-sided tape)
If you use a mirror well, the space looks bigger.
- It has that effect. - You have to put that on first.
(Heart pounding)
(Marveling)
All I did was change the mirror.
It looks much brighter.
I can even see my pores.
- All I did was change the mirror. - My gosh.
- It's so clean. - Look at his face.
- Is he cute? - Goodness.
It was nice.
This is cool.
(He secures the edges with silicon.)
- He's even using silicon. - Goodness.
Is there anything he can't do?
(The friend that can do everything)
You use your hand?
- Yes. - I see.
(She can't stop marveling.)
(He fixes it perfectly with a clean finish.)
It's nice and clean.
(This is what mirrors are supposed to look like.)
It's become clean after just changing the mirror.
- I threw out everything useless. - Okay.
I used silicon...
and attached it.
Oh, that's the one you were using.
I wiped this yesterday.
The toilet is cleaner.
It's become much cleaner.
(He even restores the relic.)
(The bathroom is born again.)
(They paint the door next.)
(He carefully puts tape around the doorframe.)
Are you going to do the interior design of your new place?
I'll help you.
It's okay.
"It's okay."
(It's the blue paint again.)
(The blue door will change the ambience.)
(The owner of the house loves it.)
(The door becomes Kian84 navy.)
You applied varnish on it, right?
No.
- What is that? - What is varnish?
Isn't it what you use to coat it?
Yes, because you can get water on it.
That's why you apply a layer of varnish.
That's why I didn't paint the inside of the door.
I just painted the outside.
I don't think we need to paint the inside.
It's like sticking your head in the sand.
- Sometimes you leave the door open. - Let's just leave him alone.
You only see the outside of the door.
I was tired.
- Think of it as a 2-tone door. - 2-tone?
It's a 2-tone door.
I'll just paint one side.
Is it blue and the color of mold?
Painting is hard.
(Choong Jae paints the door of the master bedroom.)
All the parts people's hands touched have turned yellow.
(It transforms into a clean white door!)
It feels good to see it become clean.
- I also brought an outlet. - Okay.
Should I change it?
- Yes, the cover was loose. - Before you do that,
I'll fix the ripped wallpaper.
- I'll use this to... - It's so yellow.
The difference in color is unbelievable.
I think that's enough.
(He places the wallpaper first.)
It stands out.
It looks like you glued a piece of A4 paper.
- Goodness. - Because the wall is yellow.
I think it might be better to paint it.
- No way. - That won't be easy.
It would look nice with gradation.
So it doesn't stand out?
(He carries the idea out.)
We might end up painting the entire wall.
I think you'll have to.
- I got smart. - I know.
There are stripes in hospital walls.
- That wraps around? - Yes.
You have so many ideas.
You've seen a lot.
Paint it in a line.
Once we started designing the interior,
it was fun and I got excited.
It was as fun as doing an art project.
Pretend that was your intention from the start.
You're turning a flaw into a strength.
- That's right. - Okay.
You have to work with what you have.
- Like this. Yes. - From ceiling to floor?
We decided to do it vertically.
I think it will look nice.
- Up to here. - Okay.
(Clean, precise)
(Choong Jae repairs the wallpaper.)
The parts that were touched a lot have turned yellow.
He'd paint...
while I glue something.
I think we were a good team.
Should we start an interior design company?
I was thinking the same thing.
"We'll fix your house."
- I'm shutting off the fuse box. - Okay.
(He shuts off the fuse box.)
Take the old one off.
He knows how to do all that?
Press it for me.
There you go.
I'll take the new one.
(He takes the new switch...)
All right.
(and attaches the wires.)
Push it in until you hear a click.
You're putting it in the hole.
That makes me feel so good.
That's amazing.
- Do you have another screwdriver? - Screwdriver?
I don't believe it.
What's a screwdriver?
I'll have to try it.
(He tries out what he learned.)
(Taking it off)
(He is excited after taking the cover off.)
You're taking everything off now.
(He turns the screws.)
You know how to do it now.
Do you have to turn it to the right or left?
It's the left...
- if you're unscrewing it. - It's the left.
Don't you get confused?
No, it's always to the left.
(He finally gets the screw out.)
(He even separates the wires.)
This is easy.
- Right? - Yes.
(He succeeds in changing the switch cover himself.)
Why does this one look crooked?
(Sad)
(The switches have turned a bright white.)
This makes me feel so good.
- I'm taking off the tape. - Okay.
- Taking that off feels so good. - That's right.
(Being careful)
(He peels it off...)
It feels good taking it off.
(all at once meticulously.)
(He enjoys it for a minute.)
- Choong Jae. - Yes?
The door looks nice.
It looks like a cafe in Hongdae.
- Don't you think so? - It makes such a huge difference.
It's a nice color.
(The family portrait of the idiots finds its place.)
Why don't we take a photo too?
- Should we? - Yes.
- A friendship photo? - Yes.
(This is what Kian84's house looked like.)
(Black footprints on the threshold)
That was... My gosh.
(He got rid of the trace of time.)
Applause.
(Now, he has a blue door instead of a yellow one.)
Applause.
(Okay, applause.)
(Congratulations on the transformation!)
Isn't it surprising?
- It's so nice! - We've seen magic.
- That door stands out. - Goodness.
What should we do now?
- Next is the living room. - Next?
- Living room? - Let's do the living room.
- Living room. - It's the worst one.
(Choong Jae looks determined as he goes to the living room.)
Okay.
(The moulding looked like that of a wedding hall in the 1980s.)
(It has a chandelier.)
(This won't work.)
(What kind of light did he prepare?)
I bet that light was there for at least 20 years.
I hope you got a pretty light.
Have you done electric work before?
- I've tried changing lights. - Really?
- There you go. - This looks complicated.
No, it's easy.
(He's an engineer that's changing the light.)
He's a man.
(Looks closely)
I wish they'd edit me like that.
- You should've done it yourself. - You should've done it yourself.
I know how to do it too.
Choong Jae looks weak on the outside.
He was an assistant instructor in the army, so he's good at that.
He looks totally different when he's working.
- Isn't he very good? - Yes.
Can you open that for me?
This was the best out of everything.
- It's pretty. - It's pretty.
- It's nice. - It's pretty.
- Goodness. - Do you like it?
- This... - I chose it for you.
- This is very nice. - I paid for it.
It isn't too long, but it's perfect in length.
Do I have to peel the sheath?
Kian84.
- Don't touch that. - No?
I wanted to help him,
but was in too much of a rush.
I'm taking this with me when I move.
All right, take this and...
(They secure it on the ceiling.)
I'll attach it.
Careful.
That's a very nice light.
You used LED bulbs.
- Yes. - That saves electricity.
It lasts long and is bright.
- This is nice. - Do you like it?
It looks like deer antlers.
- I'll connect the fuse box. - Okay.
(When the antlers light up...)
- Goodness. - My gosh.
(Creating a fuss out of joy)
Choong Jae.
Hey, hey.
It's become a different house.
- That one's really nice. - It's so nice.
(The living room became cozy with the change of a light.)
This is awesome.
It looks like a different house.
It is a different house.
This makes me feel so good.
Use it however you want.
- You can even move them around. - My goodness.
- Turn it. - Right.
- You can hang a frame. - A drawing.
This is what you wanted.
A floor lamp with a shade.
That's a nice ambience.
This brings me the most satisfaction out of everything we did.
- Really? - It makes...
the most dramatic difference.
Now we have to put a new cover on the sofa...
and put up curtains.
Is that it?
Yes, and cleaning up.
Curtains.
(They put up the curtains first.)
(They need to install the rails first.)
It's all in English. Darn it. What language is this?
(It's a very simple instruction manual.)
It's 140 max.
(Is he looking at something different?)
How do you read that?
Then you slide it in.
Like this.
(Choong Jae shows him.)
- You're smart. - Like this.
He looked smart whenever he did something.
It's when we install it on the ceiling.
You're smart.
[VIU Ver] E296 I Live Alone "A Total Transformation" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(They install the rail from both sides of the window.)
(Screwing it by hand)
(Hammering with his teeth clenched)
(He has the foundation ready.)
The curtains are also...
- A complementary color? - Yes.
It's a shade of yellow.
- It goes very well with the house. - It looks cool.
He has quite an eye.
Is it a blackout curtain?
(They put up the curtains the art major chose.)
(The area that was exposed to everyone)
The house looks so nice.
That gives me privacy.
(It turned into a space that gives him privacy.)
It's so nice.
Gosh.
What do we have left?
- The sofa. - The sofa cover.
(This isn't a laugh of joy.)
Is that really it?
It that it?
We just have to do the sofa and clean up.
I used this sofa for five years.
- Didn't you have it in Bundang? - Yes.
I think you need a longer sofa.
It looked very long on the internet,
- but when I got it... - Wait.
- It was shorter? - Maybe you grew taller.
You must have checked the length.
They left...
a small plant and cushion next to it.
- No. - Regardless of that,
you should have checked how many centimeters it is.
He didn't check it.
Centimeters?
- It's written on the website. - I didn't check it.
It looked big enough for five people,
but it was small when I got it.
(They give up trying to understand him.)
When sofas get old,
it has hygiene problems, so people use covers like this.
Yes, I heard many people do.
You can change it according to the season and ambience.
- That's nice. - You just have to change the cover.
(He chose a blue-green cover.)
Is this it? Oh, this is it.
And then...
- Do you see the sponges? - Yes.
Use that to stick it in along the shape.
You push the sponges in?
- I didn't know that. - So it doesn't move?
- This is how you shape it. - Goodness.
- Did you know that, Na Rae? - No, I didn't.
- I've never seen that. - That's interesting.
You're good at this.
I've done this several times...
to find loose change.
It's nice, Choong Jae.
- Look at that. - Goodness.
- It's so nice. - This is amazing.
- It's a totally new sofa. - I got a new sofa.
- You got a new sofa. - Yes, it's new.
That's amazing.
It doesn't pull out.
(It feels comfortable.)
(This is nice.)
- Nice. - Nice.
Next.
He doesn't rest.
The refrigerator.
I think...
the refrigerator should go over there.
- It's his house now. - He helped as if it were his house.
- Yes, he did. - Here.
It's 110v.
- I have a converter. - Do you?
- You have a converter? - Yes.
A converter.
- It's an old word. - A converter.
I just need that...
- Oh, an adapter? - Yes, I just need that.
This is for traveling, not Korea.
- There you go. - There you go.
All mine are 110v.
- Really? - Yes.
I have to convert them to 220v,
but I wouldn't have to if I lived there.
Do you want to change houses with Kian84?
- What? - Will you change houses?
- What? - "What?"
- If you move... - He doesn't hear you.
Why can't you suddenly speak Korean?
What did you say?
- "What did you say?" - "What did you say?"
- Do you want to change houses? - Change.
- No change. - "No change."
- No, thank you. - He understands.
- Okay. - Okay.
- We just have to clean up now. - Yes.
- Good job, Choong Jae. - We're almost done.
Let's clean this.
I didn't think it would end,
but doing it together...
- Of course. - It ends within a day.
Gosh.
Good job.
Choong Jae.
- Look at this. - Gosh.
(Hurry up and show us. I feel nauseous from waiting.)
Let's see it.
It's become a gallery.
- Isn't it surprising? - Goodness.
(Shocked)
- This is amazing. - I love it.
(It was yellow and green before.)
(The old living room from 40 years ago)
(It has now become a stylish house with nice colors.)
Let's give him a hand.
You did a great job.
- Seriously. - Seriously.
- You did a great job. - It's so nice.
Choong Jae did better than I imagined.
- It's like it's from a magazine. - Yes, it is.
I get touched when I see things like this.
- Me too. - I love it.
It looks like a house in Europe.
It's Gwarope.
- Europe in Gwacheon, Gwarope. - Gwarope?
I'm very satisfied.
I'm surprised...
at how cost-effective it was.
I'm fully satisfied.
The total amount of money I spent on it...
- was less than 1,000 dollars. - What?
- You're lying. - Really?
- It's true. - Less than 1,000 dollars?
It cost me about 700 dollars in total.
But Choong Jae should be paid about 7,000 dollars.
(Choong Jae checks the refrigerator.)
My goodness.
(Kimchi, alcoholic drinks)
My goodness.
- You keep only the essentials. - Yes.
(The empty fridge makes Choong Jae sigh.)
Kian84, do you eat only kimchi and drinks?
Yes.
Oh, gosh. There's nothing else in his fridge.
He doesn't have rice or rice cooker in his house.
Cooking ramyeon in a microwave...
- is something... - Right.
that I used to do at PX when serving in the military.
When I saw that he was still living like that,
I thought I should...
- help him make small changes... - He must feel bad for Kian84.
just like how I organized his clothes.
- My goodness. - The wine opener should be...
He organized the kitchen as well.
- Even your kitchen cabinets? - I feel so apologetic.
Kian84, are these towels?
- Are they in dark colors? - Yes.
- They're rags. - They're rags?
- Keep them in the lower cabinet. - Okay.
I realized that I had triple the amount of rags than towels.
It's because you use anything you can get your hands on as a rag.
Right.
- Choong Jae... - He's organizing the entire house.
He's unbelievable.
(Things are getting back to where they should be.)
(Looking around)
I think I should keep things in proper places from now on.
Since you organized everything,
- Yes. - I can't put them just anywhere.
Where should I put my nail clipper?
As for the nail clipper... If you look into the drawer,
- there's a wine opener... - Why did you ask that to him?
Whose house is that? Who lives there?
I couldn't find the right place since he organized everything.
- Should I put it in there? - Keep it in there.
- What about cotton swabs? - That too.
(Kian84 organize things as Choong Jae told him.)
Where should I put my earphones, Choong Jae?
Put them in the box over there...
where the daily necessities are.
(Once you organize things...)
After organizing the house...
For example, I just found a nail clipper.
Do you know how I act?
(Where should I put it?)
"Where should I put it?"
- You don't know where to put it. - It makes me think this way.
It's not a small change. It's a big change.
- It changed me a little. - That's great.
(Shiny)
- It looks so clean now. - It's so clean.
Wilson looks happy now, Kian84.
- It looks so nice. - Wilson looks happy somehow.
- Let's light the candle. - Let's do that.
That's a scented candle.
(He's even changing the air in the house.)
- Two men are doing that... - Let's turn off the light.
(He turns off the light.)
(He bursts out laughing as he hears the cute melody.)
(Giggling)
- They're having fun. - It was amazing.
- I think we should sleep now. - Look at this.
- Choong Jae. - Yes?
Shall we eat here since we redecorated it?
- That sounds great. - You'll make him dinner?
Choong Jae helped him decorate his house that nicely, so he should.
- Absolutely. - I'll cook for you.
You did so much work today.
Where is my wallet, Choong Jae?
- It's in the box. - In the box?
- Are we going to a supermarket? - Yes. Let's go to a supermarket.
Okay.
(While Choong Jae is getting changed,)
Oh, dear.
(Kian84 looks around his newly decorated house.)
My goodness. My house looks strange.
- I can't believe how it changed. - That's amazing.
- It looks like a hotel room. - It doesn't suit you anymore.
- Why not? It suits me well. - No. It doesn't look...
That's true. Right?
- It's time for you to move out. - It doesn't suit you at all.
- I'll fight the redevelopment. - It doesn't look like your house.
I'll protest wearing a headband.
Why would you do that?
I'm going to protest to stop it.
I'll take some photos.
Oh, my. He's taking photos of his house now.
To maintain it as it is.
This is a work of art.
(He fell in love with his house.)
(We hope he will live in here for a long time...)
(while maintaining the house just as it is now.)
- It looks great. - It's pretty.
I'm so hungry.
What else are you craving other than beef?
How about beef steak?
- Steak? - That sounds nice.
Right. They should eat some meat.
They should take some protein.
- With asparagus. - Asparagus?
- Wine goes well with steak. - Okay. Wine.
- They should drink wine. - Just like people in Europe.
Wine would suit my house better than soju, right?
The atmosphere of your house suits wine better than soju.
I guess I can't drink soju in a bowl now.
I wish we could have mashed potato with it.
Mashed potato? Oh, the one that's mashed?
Yes.
Shall I mash some potatoes? I'll do it.
(Smash his mouth with an iron mace.)
(Smashing is his specialty.)
That's okay.
I'll mash it. I want to do it for you.
Since we're here, you should buy some side dishes.
I won't even eat it anyway.
Choong Jae is so nice.
(Dragging their tired body after a hard labor,)
(they arrived at the supermarket.)
(Let me see.)
- We need salad. - Okay.
Don't we also need something to sprinkle on it?
As for the dressing, I'll buy a cheap one. It's only one dollar.
Okay.
I don't think you'll ever eat it when you're home.
He knows everything about Kian84.
- That's right. - He knows Kian84 well.
I don't even know how to enjoy it.
Balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
He knew where to find the things we needed.
Large asparagus.
It looks delicious. I like asparagus.
I see.
Asparagus is good even when you just eat it.
What do you mean you just eat it?
- Grilled asparagus. - I see.
I thought you eat it raw.
Since we're going to eat steak, let's buy food...
- Okay. - that goes well with it.
- We need onions. - Okay.
And garlic. Garlic.
Sliced garlic.
- Let's just buy whole garlic. - No. Sliced, sliced, sliced.
(Sliced, sliced, sliced!)
It's better.
(Throwing)
- Why did you pick more garlic? - I like garlic.
- You like garlic? - Yes.
(Unlike Choong Jae who only picks what they need...)
Do you want some sashimi? They have skate too.
That's okay. We'll eat meat.
We'll eat meat today. Now, we're going to choose beef.
Good. He buys only what they need.
Hey. Here it is. It's for steak.
This one.
- What's that? - This weighs 320g, and that's 370g.
It's the same meat.
"Wagyu oyster blade".
(The next aisle they stopped...)
Shall we have caprese salad?
- We need mozzarella cheese... - Okay.
I like brie cheese.
He picks the right food.
Even brie cheese too?
We also need some olives.
Here it is.
I think I'll eat it if it's in the fridge.
- Then let's buy it. - I have no idea of what they are.
Okay. We got some cheese.
- Wine. - We should buy wine...
Shall we buy some sushi?
- Isn't it too much? - We can finish it.
(Kian84 picks his favorite food, ramyeon.)
- He picks ramyeon. - Ramyeon.
Why does he buy so much?
(Throwing it into the shopping cart)
Don't buy too much ramyeon.
(Something caught Kian84's eyes.)
- Makgeolli. - Makgeolli.
- Wine... - It's new. I'll try it.
Don't forget that makgeolli expires quickly.
I can finish it all.
- Oh, yes. Great. - We found wine.
(They arrived at the wine section.)
I'll try one of each.
This one looks nice. It's big.
(Wine in a big bottle is always good.)
Why did you pick such a big bottle?
But it's cheap.
We can't finish it at once.
Is that so?
I picked it because it was big and cheap.
But he took it out.
Didn't you check the year the wine was made?
I don't know things like that.
(They've picked everything. They'll pay now.)
- Hello. - Hello.
How much could it be?
(The cashier counter is already full.)
- You bought a lot. - Exactly.
It costs a lot since I haven't shopped for groceries for a while.
- Let's go. - Okay.
(It's already evening now.)
(They don't even turn on the light as they enter the house.)
Oh, dear.
(Groaning)
- Oh, gosh. Good job. - Oh, dear.
My goodness.
(He turns on the light first.)
(Then they start organizing the food right away.)
I'll organize them. Leave them.
I feel so apologetic towards you.
Since I've started, I'll put the food in the fridge.
My goodness. He's so kind.
It's practically a feast.
That was my first time eating at home like that.
Wait.
- Choong Jae. - Yes?
- I'll start grilling the meat. - Wait.
Let's marinate the meat first.
He's going to even marinate the meat?
He knows so much about it.
Kian84, do you know what marinating is?
- What? - Marinating.
I don't know.
If you grill meat without marinating,
the meat loses juice naturally.
But if you put meat, salt, pepper, and some olive oil...
in a plastic bag and rub it on the meat...
before grilling the meat, the meat loses less juice.
- I see. - What did you think it was?
I thought it was the dish Choong Jae made. He cut tomatoes...
and put cheese on the slices of tomato.
- No. That's... - Mozzarella cheese...
- caprese salad. - Caprese salad.
Is it called caprese salad?
I won't eat it again in my life anyway.
(Scratching his head)
- Okay. Okay. Let's clap. - Let's move on.
It's not important anyway.
- It's cheese and tomato. - That's true.
Let's just grill it.
All right.
Let's grill it. I can just grill asparagus, right?
Yes.
(Using scissors,)
(he cuts asparagus roughly.)
(While cooking it, he opens a wine bottle.)
(He tries to open it forcefully without even removing the wrapper.)
Now I'm starting to find him cool.
(He looks cool now.)
(Why is he frowning?)
(Pulling the cork)
(Sniffing)
(Exclaiming)
(He finishes cooking asparagus.)
Gosh. He's using metal chopsticks.
(And now it's time to grill the beef.)
That's the one.
- Gosh, Kian84. - No, no.
- Kian84. - Have you lost your mind?
- Choong Jae... Oh, no. - What are you doing...
(He's doing something ridiculous,)
I'm sure I saw the yellow one.
(but Choong Jae is too busy working to see it.)
But you're cooking steak.
The frying pan was too small.
(Choong Jae has no idea.)
- Choong Jae, do you want it rare? - Yes.
(Rare?)
(I'm going to cook it rare.)
(Extremely anxious)
(It's done.)
(Too bloody)
What?
- That's raw meat. That's raw. - No.
That's not rare. It's raw.
Do you have a lion or tiger at home?
Na Rae, what should we do about him?
I didn't do that to be funny.
I ate it first.
It was too bloody, so I cooked it again.
(What?)
Who eats steak like this?
(He puts the meat in a rice bowl.)
He put it in a rice bowl.
(He looks as if he wants to hit Kian84.)
Can you bring me a plate?
A plate? Okay.
A plate.
Hey, I found this. The one we used earlier.
That's the plate I gave him.
(For Kian84 who used to eat food from the pot,)
(Na Rae gave some of her plates to Kian84.)
(Thanks to her, they put the meat on a pretty plate.)
Since you gave it to me, I've never used it until then.
Goodness gracious. It's been almost two years since I gave it to you.
(Pouring dressing over caprese salad)
The salad looks amazing.
I can't say anything else but "Thank you".
It looks like a rice ball.
That looks so nice.
Let's eat.
- The plate looks pretty. - See?
- Kian84, use your plates... - Here.
- and cups more often from now on. - I'll pour you a glass.
You have wine glasses, at least.
I bought them.
Can you look at me?
It's atmospheric, right?
I heard that you should lift it high,
so the wine is exposed to the air for longer.
- That's right. - I heard it somewhere.
People swirl wine before drinking as well.
- Do you do that? - Swirling? I do now.
You're doing it.
He'll spill it.
(He suddenly bursts out laughing.)
I felt so awkward because I wasn't used to it.
He's adorable.
I seem to have changed too much because I redecorated my house.
(He used to drink makgeolli.)
(It's nice.)
- That's not true. - It felt weird.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Even that sound makes me feel so awkward.
Why are you so embarrassed?
It's because of that sound.
(He seems to feel so awkward that he shudders.)
I can't believe I'm drinking wine with you at your house.
(Gwarope84's journey of learning about wine)
(Exclaiming)
- How was it? - It was so good.
I bet it tasted so good.
Thank you for the food.
Choong Jae, cut the meat with this knife.
I'll put it here.
It's hard to cut meat with a fruit knife.
No juice is left.
But this is...
(He cuts a big chunk the bloody piece of meat.)
Gosh.
(We thought he was a gentleman.)
He's like a lion.
He's like a wild animal.
Try this too. It's good.
(The gentleman Choong Jae is surprised to see it.)
It's not bad, but it's raw.
We should cook it longer.
Fortunately, we had a portable gas stove on the table.
- Let's grill a piece at a time. - Okay.
(Each of them cooks meat by themselves.)
Thanks to you, I can live in a house like this.
You should keep your house clean from now on.
In fact, I hate to make a mess now.
If this place get messy as it was, I would feel so shameful.
I want to set up a pet cam in your house.
- A pet cam? - If you make a mess,
I'd say, "Kim Hee Min, take that towel away."
"Put the rag where it was."
Kim Hee Min, take that towel away.
(Running away)
(I'll keep an eye on you, Kian84.)
That looks so nice.
- Gosh, that sound. - Every time you drink it...
That sound is still so strange.
I feel like I've moved to a new house.
He's the best.
Obviously, I'm happy since my house became so bright and beautiful.
Of course, I'm grateful.
I keep telling myself to be good to Choong Jae...
and treat him more nicely.
- He did all this for me. - How do I have so much dandruff?
Is that dandruff?
(His dandruff ruins the mood.)
Please hide it using computer graphics.
(She can't believe her own eyes.)
- It's bothering me. - Listen.
We can't use computer graphics to hide dandruff...
in a cast member's hair.
You could have told me, at least.
- He's living in his own world. - Okay. I get it.
He's special.
- Think that it's a dot pattern. - He said Kian84 is special.
A dot pattern on the screen.
- Just like your dress. - A dot pattern on the screen?
I'll never wear a polka dot dress again.
This is unbelievable.
I told myself to refrain from cluttering the house...
- and keep it tidy. - It keeps bothering me.
It will get a little dirty again,
(We'll hide it with computer graphics.)
but I'll clean it.
I think I'll live in my house with more affection for it.
Oh, right. Choong Jae.
Choong Jae, since we worked on this together,
- Oh, right. - let's write something on the wall.
- What? - Where?
You know how artists write a comment...
- on a wall in a gallery. - You know that, right?
Yes.
(Start anew with a new mindset.)
Thank you, Choong Jae. I'll live a good life here.
(Always Like a New House)
We all enjoyed your video so much.
My goodness. It's unbelievable.
- It amazing. - Exactly.
It's not a small change like Choong Jae said.
- It's a big change for Kian84. - That's right.
- It makes us happy as well. - Right. I was so surprised.
We'll cheer for your new beautiful house, Kian84.
Let's give him a round of applause.
I'll see you all next week.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(Next week)
(Yunho is full of passion as always.)
(He's going to repay BoA's kindness.)
(I will make it a special day for you.)
(BoA is satisfied.)
(I'll show you my sincerity.)
(Too much sincerity)
(Why is it so strong?)
(We can eat food shortly, right?)
(Don't worry. I'm Yunho.)
(I Am Yunho, So Trust Me, BoA)
