Original subtitles

(You can see the Han River through the concrete jungle.)

(Yeouido Station)

- Hello. - Hello, Sang Uk.

(Handsome Guys gathered in Seoul after a long time.)

(Monday, the start of the week, 8am)

Dong Hyun looks really scary.

- There he is. - Dong Hyun.

- You look very scary today. - Hello.

Are you from "Rustic Period?"

("Rustic Period?")

What's wrong with you?

(The one who dreams of being an action actor in the 90s)

Here's our director.

- Director, come to the center. - Hello.

- Director. - Come to the center.

All right.

Hello.

I'll be loyal to you, sir.

Why you...

- I'll do my best. - Nice to meet you.

What's with your outfit?

- Are you an intern? - Yes, I am.

I see.

You're the director.

This feels very strange.

- It's very awkward. - Here's the reason why...

we're dressed like this today.

The staff members contacted each of our stylists.

- They asked them to dress us... - Like an office worker.

like an office worker.

- Yes. - Why are you dressed like this?

This is how office workers dress these days.

That's old-fashioned.

- Is this old-fashioned? - Yes.

- Is that Gen Z's fashion style? - Is this old-fashioned?

- Gen Z's fashion style. - People dress more casually now.

They don't wear ties either.

- Really? - We're dressed...

in a standard way.

That's true.

With a laptop bag.

A laptop bag?

I mean, a briefcase.

There are so many...

(So many office workers all over the country)

- office workers. - Yes.

Do you know what their biggest concern is?

Wouldn't it be their annual income?

- Annual income? - Isn't it annual income?

Annual income while negotiating the contract?

Annual income.

- And... - I think...

food is the biggest concern for me and Sang Uk.

(Simply and clearly, food)

That's my everyday concern.

- Office workers are concerned... - Is it their lunch?

about what to eat today.

Right.

(In the repetitive everyday life)

(The biggest concern for office workers)

(- Which one would you like to eat? - Anything.)

(- Gosh, what shall I eat? - Korean food or Chinese food?)

(And so, what should we eat?)

On behalf of office workers, we'll think about it...

and make recommendations.

(What shall we eat for lunch today?)

(Kimchi stew or budae stew?)

(Pork cutlet or stir-fried pork?)

(What if you're having a drink after work?)

(Raw fish versus pork belly)

(Pizza with beer versus lamb skewers)

(They eat the dish of their choice.)

(They can't eat the dish that they didn't pick.)

(A very realistic...)

(food recommendation show)

(Why didn't you pick this?)

(Korean food)

(Chinese food)

Forget about fried dumplings.

(Western food)

It's very flavorful.

(They will go anywhere.)

This is amazing.

What's this?

(If there's a good dish to recommend)

Rock-paper-scissors.

(They put their heart into every meal.)

(5 Handsome Guys...)

- There he goes. - There he goes.

(Too absorbed)

(Food recommendation project)

Yeouido. When it comes to Yeouido,

everyone knows it...

as a mecca for office workers.

It's where National Assembly Building is located,

so it's the center for politics.

That's what people say.

To be exact, when I was 20,

I joined KBS in Yeouido.

Wasn't it an open recruitment?

I joined KBS at an open recruitment.

- Then... - It was in 1995.

- In 1995? - I was 20.

- What year were you born? - I was born in 1996.

(Oh Sang Uk, born in 1996)

I was born that year.

- He was born in 1995. - Goodness.

They're different.

Look at how he put his arms behind his back.

He looks like a director.

You must know many tasty restaurants in Yeouido.

- Aren't there several... - Tae Hyun.

famous tasty restaurants in Yeouido?

You've lived here.

You worked here too.

But it was a very long time ago.

The restaurants are probably gone by now.

Don't ask Tae Hyun about food.

He probably doesn't know any tasty restaurants.

(He totally agrees.)

There's a famous bulgogi restaurant here.

- Right, bulgogi... - Bulgogi?

I heard that there was a tasty gochujang bulgogi restaurant.

Gochujang bulgogi.

- Do you know any restaurant? - Gochujang bulgogi sounds good.

My favorite Korean dishes are...

gochujang bulgogi and stir-fried pork.

(Lunch without failure)

(Korean set menu with gochujang bulgogi)

The weather hasn't warmed up yet.

- Yes. - It's still cold.

I'd love some hot broth.

I enjoy cod soup during winter when it's cold.

- Cod soup? - Cod soup.

I like clear broth.

- I like clear broth. - Don't you like clear broth?

(Cod soup with its superb hot broth)

(Today's LMR)

(Lunch Menu Recommendation)

Today, we'll have cod soup...

and gochujang bulgogi.

Are we going to eat either...

cod soup or gochujang bulgogi?

Yes, pick 1 of the 2.

Only one?

Yes, only one.

We have to pick only one?

You can't eat both dishes.

Six of us can't eat the same dish.

Why can't we eat two?

- Sang Uk, can you eat two or not? - Two...

I can eat two meals,

and the combination looks good.

People like me and Sang Uk order both at the same time.

We order both.

- What's your choice? - Gochujang bulgogi sounds better.

Cod soup isn't enough for a meal.

Right?

When we go to the gochujang bulgogi restaurant,

there will definitely be stew on the side.

That's right.

- You're right. - Gochujang bulgogi.

That's a good idea.

- That's true. - I pick gochujang bulgogi.

- Gochujang bulgogi. - Gochujang bulgogi.

What about you, Tae Hyun?

I'm going to eat cod soup.

I'm craving cod soup too.

In today's weather,

hot broth will warm the whole body.

- Do you want cod soup? - Yes.

- Let's get going. - Let's go.

We'll go to the cod soup restaurant first.

- Okay. - Let's go.

- Director. - Let's get cod soup.

- Which way is it? - Come this way.

Just follow the director.

- Director, are you treating us? - Cod soup...

It feels new here.

I don't know how it was in the past.

These are LG Twin Towers, Financial Center...

This used to be the SBS building.

This one?

It was in this building.

- SBS used to be here? - Yes.

(SBS was founded at this place in 1991.)

I don't recognize anything.

(SBS maintained the broadcasting industry...)

(in Yeouido with KBS and MBC for 14 years.)

(Chuckling)

We're moving as a group...

of men in black.

Now that we've walked around,

I think Sang Uk is dressed the most appropriately.

Tae Hyun, this is how office workers dress these days.

(They keep walking without knowing the right office outfit.)

- Hello. - Outdoors...

- Are you going to work? - Hello.

Do people not dress like this at work?

- No. - No?

Really?

- Are we overdressed? - I was right.

- This is old-fashioned. - Goodness.

Do you use "cc" and "bcc" in emails?

Yes.

- Really? - I see.

What does "cc" mean?

I have a quiz for you.

- Give it to us. - Really?

- It's related to work terminology. - Work terminology?

What's work terminology?

Work terminology is special words...

used by people in the office.

- Mr. Oh Sang Uk. - Yes?

"Cc the team leader on the email."

"Bcc the manager."

- "Bcc?" - All right.

(Work terminology 2)

- Let's do it lean. - What? Lean?

- "Do it lean?" - "Lean?"

It means to do it effectively.

It must be an English word.

They don't use "thin."

Do they say "lean" instead of "thin?"

"Lean?"

(They check to see if the words are really used.)

Cc is when you copy someone on the email.

(Email recipient terminology)

- "Bcc" is actually used. - She knew right away.

Be lean today at work.

We don't usually say that.

(We don't usually say that.)

Isn't it hard to decide what to eat for lunch every day?

- Yes. - What will you eat today?

Today...

(Thinking)

I'll think about it with my team members.

- Right. - It's a little cold.

- It's an everyday concern. - Since it's cold,

shouldn't you get a type of soup?

(While chatting)

Have a good day at work.

- Thank you. - She came this way for us.

- Bye. - She's going that way.

There are so many restaurants.

It's a food court.

Do you see that? It's a food court.

- It must be in here. - There must be many restaurants.

In the basement... Look at the restaurants.

- There are many food options. - I'm hungry.

You have many choices to choose from.

- Welcome. - Here we go.

(Handsome Guys enter the lunch dungeon.)

- Deodeok? - This place on a cold day.

(There's an old-looking restaurant.)

I like the name too.

- It's definitely a tasty place. - "After-Party?"

(It feels already refreshing from its name.)

There's also braised codfish head on the menu.

- I like braised codfish head. - There it is.

(In the basement food court,)

(the restaurant opens early in the morning.)

(Starting from early in the morning)

(A place where Yeouido people satisfy their hunger)

(Opened in 1990, it's been around for 36 years.)

(1 of the top 3 cod soup restaurants in Yeouido...)

(where you must wait to get in)

(Politicians,)

(broadcasters, and office workers)

(The place where Yeouido eaters cure their hangovers)

(Rumors say that Choi Bul Am and Lee Yeong Ja frequent here.)

(The broth is light yet rich.)

(The codfish is much thicker and meatier than other places.)

(LMR 1, cod soup)

- Braised codfish head? - Can I switch?

"Switch?"

- Oh, my. - Hello.

How is it so cheap?

- Those who are eating sit here. - What?

Those who aren't eating sit there.

I mean...

- But... - We can't eat?

Why don't we...

You'll be eating gochujang bulgogi.

Let's buy it ourselves.

- Come on. - Braised codfish head.

Some of us can't eat.

You only eat what you picked.

- Only the three of us are eating? - Yes.

(Those who will eat cod soup from now on)

- So we really can't eat any? - I want cod soup.

I mean, can't we have at least one bite?

- We will see. - "One bite."

"One bite."

It looks like...

a very old restaurant.

(By the way...)

Isn't it too early to eat?

(A customer has been eating even before they arrived.)

- It opens at 6:30am. - It starts at 6:30am.

It actually opens at 6:30am.

For people who want to cure their hangover before work.

- To eat? - It looks delicious.

There's cod head soup and regular cod soup.

"Cod head soup?"

Cod head? Okay.

There's meat on the head, and it's delicious.

Meat on the fish head is known to be the best.

(A special fish head dish only at this restaurant)

Can you hurry up and order?

We haven't eaten yet.

- We have to go... - Why are you being sensitive?

and eat gochujang bulgogi.

I'll get cod soup.

- The head or the body? - I'll get the body.

I don't want the head either.

Shall we order one braised codfish head?

Yes, a small one.

We definitely need to order braised codfish head.

We need to order that too?

It's impossible not to.

It's so early in the morning, but okay.

- Excuse me, ma'am. - Yes?

One cod head soup, two cod soup,

and a small braised codfish head, please.

Would you like braised codfish head?

- Yes. - Yes, one small please.

She checked to make sure...

that we wanted it in the morning.

- I'm so hungry. - How spicy would you like?

The braised codfish head?

- Please don't make it too spicy. - Not spicy.

Why are you deciding?

Please make it not spicy.

(He's unbelievable.)

We will take care of it.

You won't be eating it anyway.

Who knows?

Sir, I'm sorry to bother you while you're having breakfast.

No, it's okay. This is a good restaurant.

Really? Do you frequent here?

I've been coming here for 30 years.

(Shocked)

Seriously? He's been coming here since it opened.

Are you eating before going to work?

I'm eating on my way to work.

I've been coming here since my second year at work.

It's been about 26 years.

(Unbelievable)

May I ask what your position is now?

I'm a director.

He's a director.

Sir, how do you usually choose what to eat for lunch?

Lunch?

I usually eat what my juniors like.

- That's the best choice. - Aren't there many?

Thank you. Have a good day at work today.

(We thank the director for his wise answer.)

- Again today, - Have a good day.

be cautious around your junior colleagues.

I know.

- I know. - Goodbye.

- Have a good day. - Don't pay for your meal.

- No. - Don't.

(Don't pay for your meal.)

- No. - It will be on us today.

I should treat you all instead.

- No. - No way.

Enjoy your meal.

- Thank you. Goodbye. - Have a good day.

He's like a typical director.

"I'll treat you all."

- I should've asked about "lean." - Right.

- He would have known. - By the way...

By the way...

- Look at the braised codfish head. - Goodness.

- That's supposed to be small? - Small? I'm so excited.

- It looks like braised monkfish. - This is great.

My scarf...

(Intern Oh gets ready in a hurry to eat.)

(He removes everything that could interfere with eating.)

It's called LMR.

(A generous portion of braised codfish head arrives.)

LMR.

(Happy)

This is it.

(Braised codfish head, a special dish for lunch)

(The red look warms up the salivary glands.)

- Thank you. - I'm glad that we ordered it.

This is very...

I'm a huge fan of braised monkfish.

Why are you taking off your jacket?

What? Just because...

- Mr. Shin. - I feel uncomfortable.

Mr. Shin, why are you taking off your jacket?

Can we get a separate plate?

No, we don't need it.

- Separate plate? - Can we get two plates?

(He tries again quietly.)

- Just watch us for now. - It's a real tasty restaurant.

I can tell without eating.

- You know why? - How do you know?

The sauce is...

This place has 30 years of history.

- It looks different. - The sauce is...

(Seung Ho gets up quietly.)

Gosh, Mr. Shin is...

He's bringing chopsticks.

Here you go.

(Giving them first to the director)

(Pleased)

Mr. Shin knows how to behave well at work.

Thank you.

- Gosh, this is... - Cod soup is here.

It looks like...

This is insane.

My goodness.

- That's the cod head soup. - Thank you.

- The bowl shows that it's good. - Right.

- It's this type of bowl. - Right.

(The bowl shows that the cod soup is good.)

They have 30 years of history.

(Refreshing broth with 36 years of history)

(A huge chunk of cod)

(Refreshing cod soup)

(The first LMR we've been waiting for, a meal of cod soup)

- Thank you. - Gosh.

(It looks insanely good.)

It smells delicious.

I'll cancel the gochujang bulgogi.

I want to eat now.

(I want to eat now.)

Wait a minute.

Thank you for the food.

- Enjoy your food. - Thank you for the food.

(Tae Hyun tastes the broth first.)

- The broth is... - This is...

(A rare reaction from the director)

It's really refreshing.

The seasoning isn't overpowering.

(Yi Kyung also starts with some broth.)

Other restaurants serve...

- a small piece of cod in the soup. - Be quiet.

(However, at this place)

- Is this really cod? - Dong Hyun.

It's as big as an anaconda.

It's this big.

(The cod is as big as an anaconda.)

(Exhaling)

(The broth is beyond words.)

It's an anaconda.

(You get both cod fish and the broth in one dish.)

Gosh, the broth...

(Gosh, the broth)

(He feels quite left out, which was unexpected.)

- This is really refreshing. - Gosh, the broth.

(Tae Hyun seems to enjoy it much more than usual.)

It's really good.

(Sang Uk takes over the braised codfish head.)

Seriously, I'm about to get angry.

Look at this.

- Gosh, this is insane. - Thank you.

Leave it.

I'm showing it to him so that he can enjoy it more.

The bean sprouts also look delicious.

The bite I'm grabbing now looks so good.

What did I tell you?

Gochujang bulgogi is excellent,

but when it's cold...

(Dong Hyun, I'll eat it exactly like that.)

Hot broth is the best.

Enjoy your food.

(Moved by the braised codfish head)

I don't want to fight with anyone,

but I just want to try some.

Just wait.

- It's clearly a tasty restaurant. - Gosh.

(After seeing them in awe, Yi Kyung also takes a bite.)

The braised codfish head is amazing.

I'm glad that you ordered it.

- I agree. - Seriously.

The meat comes off so easily.

The codfish is...

very chewy.

Are you okay?

Can I try some?

(Chewy cod meat...)

(and crunchy bean sprouts)

(They make the best texture combination ever.)

(He takes a huge and compact bite of it.)

Did you know that you can ask for broth refill...

as much as you want?

(They hear good news while eating.)

- Really? - Yes.

Seriously?

This place is very cost-effective.

- Isn't it insane? - Yes.

Also, it's less than ten dollars.

May I get some broth?

- No way. - I can't ask for a refill, can I?

Then how about this?

Make an acrostic poem with Cha Tae Hyun.

"Cha Tae Hyun?"

Cha...

(Goodness)

Director Cha.

(Cha: Director Cha)

Tae.

Tae...

(He faces a crisis after one syllable.)

- You're out. - Tae...

Forget it. You don't deserve it.

- Seung Ho, are you ready? - Tae...

- I'll try. - Cha.

President Cha Tae Hyun.

- "President?" - I became a president.

- You got promoted right away. - I became a president.

- He became a president. - Tae.

President who's like the sun.

President who's like the sun. Hyun.

Please make wise judgment.

(Hyun: Please make wise judgment.)

(He nailed it.)

- Tae Hyun, serve him food. - Yes.

You did a good job.

- "Wise judgment." - It was wise.

The seasoning is amazing.

- My rice is clean. - Yes.

The seasoning is amazing.

(He finally gets to try what he could only look at.)

Gosh, wait.

- This is all I could think about. - Nice.

Did you come up with one?

Wait, acrostic poems are difficult.

- Did you come up with one? - Did you?

- Oh. - What do you mean "Oh?"

For Oh Sang Uk.

(Seung Ho finally gets to try it.)

(Grunting with joy)

(A smile returns to Seung Ho's face.)

(Slurping bean sprouts)

(As a bonus, he gets to try some broth.)

Gosh, I'm hungry.

Seung Ho, what do you think of the broth?

I hardly drink alcohol.

When I tried the broth,

I thought, "Did I drink last night?"

- Some broths make me think so. - Right.

- It feels good on the stomach? - It's very refreshing.

Since Dong Hyun doesn't drink alcohol,

he won't need to eat it.

It could help if I eat some.

I've drunk in the past.

I still have a hangover from it.

Which one do you want to eat more?

Cod soup or braised codfish head?

- I want to pull the meat off. - That one?

(I want to tear off some codfish head.)

(Imagining himself devouring it)

(The simulation is perfect.)

Some of this meat...

(Thinking about an acrostic poem)

My head isn't working. I can't think of any acrostic poem.

(The problem is that he can't come up with a poem.)

Dong Hyun, play the number game with me.

You'll lose if you say 31.

- This is easy. - You like this game, don't you?

I am good at being strategic.

- You have always been strategic. - Right.

Would you like to start? Or shall I go?

- One, two, three. - Four, five, six.

- Seven, eight, nine. - Ten, eleven, twelve.

- Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen. - Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen.

(They get to the 20s quickly.)

Twenty-two.

(He's starting to think.)

Twenty-three.

(Relaxed)

(Remaining numbers are 27, 28, 29, 30, 31.)

(What?)

(Dong Hyun is knocked out.)

Gosh, he's an expert.

(Chuckling)

- He's an expert. - I'm not. I just played.

(He attacks again with 1, 2, 3.)

- Seven, eight, nine. - Ten, eleven, twelve.

Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen.

Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen.

- Nineteen, twenty, twenty-one. - Twenty-two.

Twenty-three.

Twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six.

(Remaining numbers are 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 again.)

- Twenty-seven. - Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty.

(They repeat without an error.)

How does this happen?

Do you lose when you go first?

Should I not go first? You go first, Yi Kyung.

- One. - Two, three, four.

- Five. - You should've said 1, 2, 3.

(You should've started with 1, 2, 3 like me.)

- Okay, 1, 2, 3. - Four, five, six.

- Seven, eight, nine. - Ten, eleven, twelve.

- Thirteen. - Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.

Seventeen, eighteen.

Nineteen, twenty-one... Twenty.

- What? - I made a mistake.

- Twenty. - Twenty?

Twenty-one, twenty-two.

Twenty-three, twenty-four.

(Being careful)

Twenty-five, twenty-six.

(Remaining numbers are 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 again.)

Did you say 26 and 9?

- What's 26 and 9? - Twenty-seven.

Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty.

(He fell for it again.)

I lose no matter what.

(He never ended up showing his tactics.)

It's impossible for you to win.

How about a round of rock-paper-scissors...

with Sang Uk?

- I have a high winning rate. - Accept it if you lose this time.

We want to give you food too.

- I'll win rock-paper-scissors. - We want you to eat too.

Can I be strategic?

Of course.

I'll be ready.

I'll start here.

- I'll lower it like this. - Okay.

I'll lower it without changing the sign.

From here like this. I'm serious.

- Like this without changing. - Like that?

Ready or not,

rock-paper-scissors.

(Rock, paper)

(He finally won!)

He's very simple.

He played rock after seeing scissors.

- Eat all of it. - I've been brainwashed.

- He finally gets to eat it. - That's how he won.

- That was great. - The meat is very delicious.

It's very delicious.

(Slurping the broth first)

- Isn't it clean? - Isn't it good?

It's very rich.

Don't you like the broth?

It's very rich.

(We're glad that he gets to eat it.)

It's definitely a restaurant with 30 years of history.

(He also takes a bite of the braised codfish head.)

Are you done eating?

- Yes. - Yes.

Can you put your personal card on the table?

Why?

My card is...

One of the cards might be picked.

(It has nothing to do with me.)

- Theirs too? They didn't eat. - We didn't even eat.

- Still put it on the table. - You ate.

- What? - You had some.

- You had the biggest piece. - You ate.

Don't you have your card on you?

I have mine.

If you have it, please put it on the table.

(Both teams turn in their cards.)

Now that you ate,

- you need to pay for the food. - Right.

It includes the director's bill.

- There's also the director's. - Right.

Now, I'll give you a quiz...

that you like.

(Time for quiz to determine who pays the bill)

This quiz will be done...

- by those who ate the cod soup. - Okay.

If you get it wrong,

you will pay the bill.

If you three get it correctly,

those who didn't pick cod soup will pay for you.

- Is it 3 against 2? - I see.

- Our members are amazing. - So the other team will...

pay for us?

Do you agree with this?

I don't know. I already ate,

so I'm willing to pay for it.

Did you enjoy the food?

- I haven't eaten enough. - I'm not angry anymore.

(Laughing)

Here's the quiz for the three who picked cod soup.

Codfish has a special trait...

where it gropes the bottom...

with its beard to find prey.

Pick what's not a special trait...

of the fish of the following.

It's a multiple-choice question.

One, herrings communicate...

with its farting sound.

(1. Herrings communicate with their farting sound.)

- Two. - That's right.

Squids change the size of their body...

to express their feelings.

That's correct too.

I've heard them before.

Three, sharks search prey...

through the electric field.

That's correct too.

One of them is false.

We have to pick what's false.

- I think it's the squid. - The squid?

Right, they express themselves with ink.

They use ink.

- By changing their size... - When you look at them closely,

they wiggle.

Aren't sharks attracted by the smell of blood?

It's the smell of blood.

Do they only eat fish that are bleeding?

- That's true. - Isn't that strange?

Herrings fart?

- Do fish fart? - They communicate by farting.

We don't have the knowledge anyway.

I think it's number two.

- Express their feelings? - Don't show them.

I mean, don't make it obvious.

It's because squids...

Let's pick the answer through elimination.

Okay.

(1. Herrings communicate with their farting sound.)

- They communicate by farting? - Farting?

Communicating by farting means...

(Trying to keep a poker face)

It sounds ridiculous,

but don't you think it's a choice because it's true?

- I agree. - Farting.

Should I cross this out?

- Cross it out. - Okay.

Then...

it's either sharks using the electric field...

or squids expressing feelings by changing their size.

Do sharks use electricity...

In documentaries about sharks,

weren't they attracted...

by blood in the water?

Yes, that's true.

They have to detect prey...

before the presence of blood.

- There must be something before. - Really?

(Quietly)

- Psychologically, - Really?

would they be duped if we say number two is right?

- Or number 3? - I think number 2...

After a good meal...

When it's touched,

it wouldn't burst because of stress.

(Whispering)

I also think number two is the answer.

- Wouldn't they use colors? - Right?

They might use colors.

I haven't seen squids...

changing their body size.

They don't get bigger all of a sudden.

- They don't do that under stress. - I don't think so either.

- Don't laugh. - Let's go with it.

- Do you know the answer? - Of course.

They looked it up.

I'll give you a chance to switch.

Don't get into a psychological war with Dong Hyun.

He's been fighting psychological wars for 30 years.

- Let's go. - Number two.

- The answer is number 2. - Number 2.

Number two?

- That's correct. - Okay.

(Keeping a poker face)

(They fail to confuse them.)

How did you guess correctly?

I was very jealous of you...

- because I knew the answer. - Really?

Really?

Usually, squids express their feelings with colors.

Right.

- They don't use their body size. - What is it?

They have chromatophores.

- What do squids use? - There are dots.

As Sang Uk said,

squids change colors...

of their chromatophores.

That's how they express their feelings.

(Squids use chromatophores to change the body color...)

(to express their feelings.)

Shall we decide by playing mukjjibba?

One round of mukjjibba?

Mukjjibba?

Let's play rock-paper-scissors.

- One round of rock-paper-scissors? - You'll win by doing this.

- One round of rock-paper-scissors? - When you play this,

- you will pay. - Okay.

Shall we go right away?

Look.

You'll win by doing this.

- Ready or not... - I'll pay the bill.

- Ready or not, - Like this.

- My hand is frozen. - rock-paper-scissors.

Gosh.

Come on. I need time to think...

Wait, okay.

I'll play scissors this time.

Wait, can I ask one thing?

- I'll play this. - Dong Hyun plays...

after looking at my sign.

I do?

- You do. - Do I have...

- such a skill... - He sees the opponent's attack.

- I won't look. - We won't look.

Let's turn around.

- Look. - It's funny to watch them fight...

- in suits. - Turn around.

My hand is frozen, so I can't change it.

- I'll play this no matter what. - Don't look.

Turn around.

- I'll play this. - Turn around.

Okay.

My goodness.

Ready or not,

rock-paper-scissors.

(This is how to be strategic.)

(Untainted)

(Did I lose?)

(Joy and sorrow of the liar and the fooled)

Thank you for the food, Dong Hyun.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - Goodness.

(Always be careful not to be stabbed in the back)

- Goodness. - Gosh.

I only had one piece.

- He'll pay 70 dollars. - Have a good day.

Thank you. It was delicious.

The food was very cheap.

(Total: 61 dollars)

- Here it is. - Can I see the receipt?

Thank you, Dong Hyun.

Please make good lunch for office workers.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

That was great.

Let's go and get gochujang bulgogi right away.

I don't know if Dong Hyun is good...

at fighting psychological wars.

Actually, there was no psychological war.

There are things that we need to go over.

Without going over them,

I won't be able to let go.

It was really miserable a moment ago.

It was really miserable.

(Being brutally honest)

After having a good meal with Seung Ho,

you played a game against him.

- Dong Hyun. - Yes?

I'll win our gochujang bulgogi.

- I'll get the quiz right. - If you do, I'll forgive you.

- Don't worry. - If you lose,

you have to play scissors, okay?

I'll play rock, so you have to play scissors.

- Let's write it before we play. - Okay.

Write it before you play?

Many company dinners take place here.

That's right.

Gosh, this place...

Noodles, rice, and coffee.

- This is the real deal. - Stir-fried squid...

This is the place.

Here it is.

The food has to be delicious here.

(It's my dish this time.)

- This is amazing. - Hello.

- Hello. - Welcome.

- This is the place where we eat. - Here it is.

(A small restaurant that doesn't look special)

(A lot of hustle and bustle at lunch every day)

(There's a wait because it's small.)

(There's a wait because it's small.)

(People come here constantly.)

(People come here constantly.)

(For the last 30 years)

(Loved by office workers in Yeouido)

(LMR 2, gochujang bulgogi)

(LMR 2, gochujang bulgogi)

- Hello. - Hello.

I haven't eaten yet.

- Gochujang bulgogi... - Can we get two orders?

(Can we get two orders?)

Are you getting two orders?

- Two orders. - No, Dong Hyun.

(His urgent hand)

Wait.

This place is also...

- The prices are incredible. - By the way...

The prices are good.

- You should get a stew. - We need a stew.

Do we have to order stew separately?

Stew is served...

- with gochujang bulgogi. - What?

- Is it gochujang stew? - Yes.

- Gochujang stew? - Gochujang bulgogi and stew...

Gochujang bulgogi is served with soft tofu stew.

My goodness.

And it's only ten dollars?

- Can it be doenjang stew? - No.

Do you want doenjang stew?

How about this?

(2 gochujang bulgogi, 1 doenjang stew)

- Let's get a rolled omelet. - Go ahead.

- Okay. - Rolled omelet.

Shall we order three gochujang bulgogi?

- Let's get 3. - Let's get 3.

Three gochujang bulgogi.

And one doenjang stew.

- Definitely. - One rolled omelet.

- That's enough. - Definitely.

Only two people are eating.

- Definitely. - What's wrong with that?

Your order is enough for six people.

Gosh, I'm hungry.

Gosh, our intern.

The youngest is doing it again on his own.

My goodness.

- When did you join the company? - Enjoy your food.

I joined two days ago.

- Intern Oh. - Yes?

Give us spoons and chopsticks.

- Yes, sir. - What are you doing?

I'm sorry.

(Automatic)

- At the same time... - Whom shall I serve?

- These 2. - These 2?

Please put the food only on this side.

Put them in a row on this side...

like a railway.

Like a railway?

Only on this side, please.

Okay.

Dong Hyun, this is...

- Exactly. - This is...

- There's cabbage. - This is gochujang bulgogi.

- Here's your stew. - It has squid in it.

- I can smell it. - Don't you smell it right away?

The smell is...

(Peeking)

It smells good.

Here's your doenjang stew.

- Is it doenjang stew? - Is it served that quickly?

(Doenjang stew straight from the kitchen)

- Thank you. - The doenjang stew is...

- clear. - It's transparent.

(Savory doenjang stew...)

(to make you clear your rice bowl immediately)

These days, the manager has to serve others.

Of course.

Didn't you see the director a moment ago?

Right.

We need to...

get with the times.

(Salivating)

Gosh, it's hot.

(Gosh, it's hot!)

It's hot.

(The manager always makes a mistake.)

- It didn't splash. - No.

- He dropped some broth on himself. - While serving broth...

- He dropped some on his hand. - Are you okay?

This is at 100°C.

(Laughing)

As a martial artist,

aren't you too much of a crybaby?

- Seriously. He said 100°C. - It's close...

- to being 100°C. - This is...

Can you pour...

the remaining?

- Please put it here. - Please put it here.

The food is served so quickly here.

This is soft tofu stew served...

with gochujang bulgogi.

That looks good.

This is...

(Thinly sliced pork)

(Seasoned with sweet and spicy gochujang)

(Tender)

(Cooked over high heat)

(Juicy meat that stimulates our salivary glands)

(And served for free)

(Spicy soft tofu stew)

(A Korean set menu enjoyed with hot stew)

Enjoy your food.

- Enjoy your food. - Enjoy your food.

(Thank you for the food.)

How...

It's served on a pan.

- I'll stir the meat. - Okay.

Three orders were a must.

It smells amazing.

Can you make me a wrap with some cabbage?

- I'll have it as is first. - As is?

With just some rice.

My gosh. Wrap that over some rice.

- Of course. - Wrap that around.

Look at it steaming. It's at 100°C for sure.

(Seung Ho's also ready.)

(They can't help but exclaim.)

Nurungji has formed on some of the rice.

(Touched)

- How is it? - You'll be wanting more rice.

How is it?

- The stir-fried pork... - I'm suddenly hungry.

- The stir-fried pork... - I'm suddenly hungry.

- is like what my mom made. - The gochujang bulgogi.

That's exactly what I thought.

- It's like what my mom made. - The kind you'd expect from Mom.

Is that so?

(It's like a meal cooked by your mom.)

It's so good.

- I'm getting my protein in. - Have it with something else...

like the dried laver.

- That's a good idea. - Have it with cabbage too.

- I'll make a wrap. - Looking good.

- My gosh. - That's the one.

There you go. Eat all of that together.

Can you take a sip of the soup with it?

- It's so good. - Try the soup.

(Living vicariously)

Have some of the soft tofu stew too.

I'll have that next, okay?

(Let me eat it as I see fit.)

I was wondering when you'd stop him.

I normally don't enjoy pork with steamed cabbage.

(Seung Ho quietly enjoys his meal regardless of the others.)

It's spicy, but there's a sweetness to it.

- Now that you say that... - Seung Ho, how's the rolled omelet?

It's good. It's just good.

The rolled omelet...

Just so you know, when I have rolled omelets...

(He eats some more the second he's done talking.)

(Rolled omelet with vegetables straight from the pan)

(This time, he tries the kimchi.)

(Yummy)

Did you know that Chinese restaurants...

serve a really nice egg dish?

- Tomato and eggs. - Tomato and eggs.

The two are stir-fried in oil.

- Can we eat that now? - Gosh, no.

- Can we finally eat? - Of course not.

- Come on. - Let us eat already.

(After saying their piece, they go back to eating.)

It's so good.

I normally don't enjoy pork with steamed cabbage.

(He drinks cold water instead.)

Sang Uk's dying.

That looks too good.

I mean it.

Tell him, will you?

Give him his mission.

Sang Uk would love this.

Give Sang Uk his mission.

- He's dying. - Is it good?

(Not caring, he has the rolled omelet.)

What's the keyword?

Sang Uk.

- This is the real deal. - Really?

(Proving with his expression)

I get that it's delicious.

- What do I have to do? - He wants you to give him a chance.

Give us our mission!

- What? - This isn't like you.

I can't believe Tae Hyun of all people is desperate.

- You have to give us a chance... - Check this out.

to try the food.

He's right. What is it you want?

Play rock-paper-scissors.

- Rock-paper-scissors? Sure. - I like that.

- Go for it. - We should win this.

- Let's keep it simple. - Are you going to play mind games?

If I lose, I won't deserve to try the food.

Show us how good you are at rock-paper-scissors.

My hand is already shaped like paper.

I'll play this hand as is. Okay?

- I can't clench it anyway. - Sure.

- Your trick is working. - It's stuck in this shape.

- It's stuck. - Okay.

This is all that I can play.

- Sure. - All right. Ready or not,

rock-paper-scissors.

Rock-paper-scissors.

(Sang Uk wins!)

(It doesn't work the second time.)

- He's so good at this. - You thought it twice over.

- Twice over. - Yes, twice over.

Did you think it twice over?

- Only thinking once had me lose. - Get ready for a bite.

You can stack them on your spoon.

- With this... - Allow me to have some.

(He tries all of them at once.)

It's like this. If I'm going to play scissors...

Isn't the seasoning on point?

The marinade is insane.

- It's incredible. - Right?

- It'll make you keep wanting rice. - The flavors linger in your mouth.

(The next player awaits.)

Nothing beats rock-paper-scissors.

The two of them can surely eat.

Let's play rock-paper-scissors.

Really? Let the mind games begin.

- Rock-paper-scissors. - So tell me.

What will it be this time?

- Think twice over. - What will you play?

- Me? - Yes.

- He's asking this time around. - Why did you shake things up?

He's asking Tae Hyun what he will play.

I'll play rock.

Then I'll play scissors.

- Then you'll lose. - You can win.

- Ready or not, rock-paper-scissors. - Ready or not, rock-paper-scissors.

- See? - No way.

(You liar...)

(Dong Hyun wins!)

There's no use overthinking it.

One spoonful isn't enough.

Are you going to end it at that?

- Are you going to lose to him? - Will you end this as a loser?

I'll let you win so that you could have some.

- I'll play rock. - Sure.

- Beat me. - Got it.

Only a fool would lose to me.

- What if you play something else? - Have some of this.

- That means you're bad. - He's playing mind games.

- That's... - That makes you a complete jerk.

Tae Hyun, why are you so angry?

- He's an utter jerk. - Hold on.

Are you irritated that you lost the game to me?

You'll be the worst of the worst.

Okay. Whatever. We need to wrap this up and move on.

Play rock-paper-scissors. I'll keep eating.

- Let's play, then. - I won't look.

Ready or not, rock-paper-scissors.

Why you...

(What a weasel.)

I was going to play rock,

but I changed to paper after Tae Hyun called him out.

(You win, Dong Hyun.)

- Unbelievable. - When playing a game,

you can't be fazed by anything.

- We're contending for victory. - Exactly.

All you have to do is win.

It's time to bring out our credit cards.

The price of the dishes is insane.

- Exactly. - I agree.

Honestly,

I loved how it felt like I was eating a home-cooked meal.

Not one of the dishes outshone the others.

- They were all equally delicious. - That's most important.

- That's why people have it daily. - We had gochujang bulgogi,

but I'm the one who polished off all the side dishes.

- Even the jeon. - Everything looked good.

The meal was delicious.

Now, it's time for a quiz.

We're at a disadvantage with it being only us two.

(Who'll Pay? Time for Quiz)

- What? - Let's do this.

- Look at this painting first. - This is great.

Let's stay calm.

It's already a challenge.

- What is it? - It's hard to understand.

- It's one from a long time ago. - This is the painting.

- We'll look at it in detail. - Sure.

I bet they're having bulgogi.

This is a painting of Joseon noblemen...

grilling and eating meat.

- The culture goes way back. - Yes.

In the painting, a specialized griddle...

known as "jeonlibtu" is depicted.

- Jeonlibtu? - Jeonlibtu.

"Jeonlib" refers to an object used by Joseon military officers.

What was it?

- A shield. - What?

- A hat. - A hat?

- It ends with "tu." - Oh, right.

- Jeonlibtu. - That's right.

At first sight, I thought it was a gat...

because of how it was hollow in the center.

Military officers back then would've worn hats made out of steel.

- Really? - Won't it have been heavy?

Is this a military officer in the far back?

- What? - No?

Didn't he say they were noblemen?

- In the back. - They're arguing again.

It seems as though they're standing in the back...

- looking sullen. - Him?

This is that guy's knee.

- Right here. It's his knee. - I see.

This is a rock.

- Is it a rock? - This is his knee.

(He kindly breaks down the painting for Dong Hyun.)

Okay, sorry about that.

- His knee. - He has long legs.

His leg is shooting out.

That must be his foot.

It's either a shield or a helmet.

- I think so too. - But...

What's a "jeonlib?" Jeon...

It must be a shield. Jeon means "in the front."

You hold shields in front of you.

Holding it up front.

- He's right. - You see it in other words too.

I most certainly believe that it's a shield,

but I'm wondering if we've missed anything.

- We'll go with shield. - Give it more thought.

(Foreshadowing)

(He already looked up the answer.)

It was to suss them out.

Every round is a game of the mind.

Is it a helmet?

It has to block arrows that come up to about here.

Arrows shoot down like so.

They fire arrows like this.

- Arrows. - Because they come like this?

They were blocked like so.

- So... - You're right.

Won't it hurt their necks?

- Like an umbrella? - They'd block them.

- Like an umbrella? - Yes.

Which is why they were wide?

- It's a shield. - Let's go with shield.

As soldiers in the military,

we grilled eggs on shovels. I'm thinking it's the same.

I think it's safe to go with shield.

- I can't think of anything else. - It's like this.

Almost immediately, I thought of a shield.

- Would you like to answer? - Go ahead.

Sure. The answer is shield.

Shield?

- Incorrect. - What?

- I told you I was better at this. - Hold on.

Why don't we hear what the answer is?

- Is it a hat? - It's a hat.

My gosh! I told you it was a hat.

- What? - That's what I said!

- What's with him? - I said it was a hat!

He was right.

The griddle resembled a certain hat worn by military officers.

That's why it was named jeonlibtu.

I was right about it being a hat.

Give us another quiz,

and we'll settle this without wasting any time.

- Shall we? - Yes.

Some time ago, a food company...

- first released this... - What?

in a powdered form.

Weren't we asked this before?

Instructions on how this should be consumed...

were written on the wrapper...

for consumers unfamiliar with how to eat it.

Here are the instructions. When you don't have an appetite.

To provide nutrients for children.

As breakfast for fathers who drank the day before.

What is this?

- Powder as a hangover cure? - Is it a powder?

Yes, it's a powder.

Hurry up and answer.

- What could it be? - Seung Ho, get the answer.

Say whatever comes to mind.

Just say anything.

Seung Ho, say anything to narrow the field.

Let me answer.

- Powdered eggs. - Powdered eggs? Incorrect.

That made sense...

in terms of nutrients and as a hangover cure.

- Cheonggukjang. - Cheonggukjang? Incorrect.

- That also made sense. - You were onto something.

Is it still sold?

- Of course. - Is it heavily consumed?

Yes.

Can you buy it at the supermarket?

Yes.

Power sold at supermarkets.

- What can be nutritious for kids? - This is tough.

It's been a while...

since we came across one we all didn't know.

(Pondering)

- Let me answer. - What?

Ramyeon seasoning?

- Incorrect. - What are the powders sold?

This is a tough one.

(Ramyeon seasoning?)

Let me answer. Instant soup.

- Correct. - What?

(Soup)

- Gosh. Soup? - Yes.

It came to my mind when he said ramyeon seasoning.

- "Instant soup!" - Soup. Gosh.

(That's right.)

It's a soup like a mushroom soup.

- They still sell it. - Yes.

(Have Santa Soup as a simple breakfast, with bread,)

(as a nutritious meal or snack for children, to increase appetite.)

- You're good, Dong Hyun. - Right.

The evil is punished, and the good is rewarded.

(Paying back for the cod soup incident)

Seung Ho will pay for this.

Yes. Swipe your card.

- Why? - I'll wire the money.

I don't trust you.

(I don't trust you.)

You were the one who played rock-paper-scissors...

- like this. - But...

- The daily interest is 200 percent. - It'll double up.

- I'll wire it to you right away. - Okay.

- "The interest will double daily." - It'll be doubled by the day.

- We'd like to pay. - He just hated it.

- It's 48 dollars, right? - Yes.

- I'll send it to you here. - Yes. Send it precisely right away.

(Wiring the money right away as promised)

- It's amazing. - He's sending it, so wait for it.

- I wired it. You can check. - Check it.

I'm not going to be fooled.

He's saying that even before checking it.

You can't fool me.

I wired it to you, right?

Why are you looking at it so carefully?

- Let me see. - How much is it?

He just sent me a message as if he wired it.

- Come on. - What is that?

Let me explain.

- Dong Hyun, - For goodness sake.

- my friends were fooled by it. - What is that?

Be careful of phishing scams.

This is how they do it.

- I'll send it again. - When are you sending it, then?

- I'm wiring the money right now. - You.

- I'm really sending it this time. - That's true.

Please. Don't try to swindle me again.

It's real this time. Clean and simple.

- You wired me 50 dollars. - It includes the fee from the scam.

(He added 2 dollars for the scam he performed.)

- Does that make you happy? - You made some money.

Do you think you've made money?

I should call and check to see if I really got the money.

(He finishes the meal that turned out to be a good one.)

I can't trust this one either.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

You have various desserts here.

- I love caneles. - Caneles.

(A famous dessert cafe in Yeouido)

Let's order our drinks first.

Three hot Americanos.

Three potato cakes.

Two quiches.

- And two caneles. - Okay.

I'll also get the scone with fresh strawberries.

They eat a lot, indeed.

How much is it?

That will be 75 dollars.

(It's 75 dollars!)

(Ridiculous)

Gosh. This is...

- We'll get the coffee now. - Okay.

(These big eaters have the desserts in a serious manner too.)

(First, there are potato cakes and caneles.)

- Here's the scone. - Gosh. Hold on.

These aren't desserts.

This is why they cost 70 dollars.

They look delicious, though.

(Various desserts to enjoy with coffee)

- Anyway, - Yes, sir.

you know that it won't be strange...

- when we collapse tomorrow, right? - It won't be strange.

- Right. - Yes.

- Yes. - Please work hard...

- as if you'll die for the company. - Okay.

- Let's do it. - Let's do it.

- Practice acrostic poems too. - Yes, I will.

(In a drowsy afternoon,)

(caffeine can be a little escape.)

You know that our show...

has moved to a new timeslot, right?

- Yes. - To Thursdays.

- We've moved. - Right.

Starting from today, we're in the different spot.

From now on,

- we have nowhere else to go. - There's nowhere to fall back to.

If we were to move again, we have to get out.

Our show is going for...

Sir, here's a potato cake.

Here it goes.

(The potato cake to shush Director Cha's mouth)

- Thank you. - Seriously.

- Hold on. I want to eat this first. - Why?

- Why? - I want to try it.

She said it wasn't made of flour.

It has no flour in it.

She said the top part was made of potato...

and the bottom part was made of powdered almonds.

I like it.

(It's subtly and sophisticatedly sweet.)

- The employees around here... - Yes.

(Eye-opening)

What is this?

The almond crunch is awesome.

(Next dessert is served with truffle cream.)

I really want you to try it.

(An irresistible potato quiche)

We have to get the quiz right.

(Finishing it cleanly in one bite)

That was what I thought. After having a 19-dollar meal...

Gosh. This is...

(Nodding positively)

Actually, each of our members...

is showing their capabilities.

See? We're paying for the food in such an order.

In the right order?

Who paid first?

- You. - Was I the first one to pay?

(Was I the first one to pay?)

You're grasping the situation very well.

- You know yourself well. - It's in the right order.

That's true.

(Eating)

(In the meantime, he can't give up the desserts.)

Gosh. It's so...

- It's a little. - Isn't it so good?

- This canele is... - By the way,

you know this stuff well when you don't look like so.

What do you mean?

- I look like a cheonggukjang lover. - Exactly.

But I love this kind of dessert.

It has an egg mixture in it.

It has a moist mixture in it.

So, it's not too sweet.

- It's perfect with coffee. - It's tasty.

(Canele, a dessert that is crunchy outside, soft inside)

Now that we had our desserts,

let's choose the menus for dinner.

We have to have it with drinks, right?

Isn't it something like grilled pork belly with soju?

- While eating pork belly... - Pork belly and soju.

- Pork belly and soju. - For dinner...

Dinner is something you have...

after working really hard.

That idea of eating good food can be why they work.

"I want something really tasty."

Then they go to a nice beef restaurant...

or somewhere it's impossible to make a reservation.

- They go somewhere like that. - That's right.

They go...

- to fine-dining restaurants a lot. - Fine-dining restaurants.

"Fine-dining?"

These days, instead of going on a trip...

because it's hard to go,

they have nice dinners to complement it.

(So here is today's DMR.)

(Dinner Menu Recommendation)

(After work, go and eat meat.)

(Marinated pork belly)

(All sorts of delicacies are served.)

(A fine-dining for a special meal)

We have to choose between pork belly and fine-dining course.

I just have to have pork belly with soju.

Only after having pork belly with soju, I can say,

"Okay. I'm off work. I'm done for the day."

That is the way to feel that way.

How much is the fine-dining meal?

The cheapest one is 190 dollars.

- It starts from there? - It's 190 dollars.

Then it goes up to 220 dollars and 250 dollars.

- For a course meal? - Yes.

- Okay. In that case, - For a fine-dining course?

Mr. Kim will go and have a fine-dining meal.

(A sudden business trip to have a fine-dining meal)

- Go and have a fine-dining meal. - Intern Oh.

- Fine-dining experience. - Yes. A fine-dining experience.

What about Seung Ho?

What are you going to have, Seung Ho?

- I'm still thinking about it. - Yes.

We just need to get the quiz right.

Join us for a fine-dining experience.

We've never had it before. Join us.

(What will Seung Ho choose?)

I'll go with the fine-dining.

- Good. - That's right.

- Good. Why did you choose it? - Fine-dining?

If I go for the pork belly,

I'll get the quiz right.

When I join them,

- We'll get the quiz right. - even if we get the quiz wrong,

I won't be the one who will be paying for it.

(It's a group of people who are bad at taking quizzes.)

If...

we get the quiz right,

you will be the one who will pay for it.

Handsome Trading Company, let's go.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

This is the real match.

Gosh. The weather is nice.

It's so nice.

(The members are happy after having desserts.)

For the five of us to walk like this in Yeouido,

it feels like we're a team...

that handles important tasks for the company.

- It's Handsome Trading Company. - Handsome Trading Company.

We're on our way to have a company dinner.

We keep eating rather than working.

Gosh. When do we work?

- That's the one. - It says seolleongtang.

Marinated pork belly.

- That's funnier. - It's been here since 1979.

What an incredible sign.

- It has to be tasty. - That's right.

It's funny how it says,

- "We don't sell seolleongtang." - It's written on it.

(They don't have seolleongtang while they look like they do.)

- It has to be tasty. - There's no doubt.

It's already been verified.

I work in Yeouido.

I come here a lot of times when I want to have pork belly.

I've come all the way from Nowon-gu to have it.

I've come from Chungjeongno after work...

because I heard there's a good restaurant here.

I have to wait because many are waiting.

(You have to wait to get in. It's praised highly.)

(Handsome's DMR 1, Koreans' soul food)

(Pork belly)

- Should I sit inside? - I wonder if they can endure it.

Can you endure it?

- Of course. - Are you sure about it?

We'll have it and leave.

What kind of company are we...

that we only keep eating?

- We just keep eating. - It's a food company.

What company are we?

We're a marketing firm.

- A marketing firm. - Are we a marketing firm?

- Finally, I know what it is. - You know that, right?

While trying the food,

we think of how we can sell the food.

I see that...

they only sell pork belly and beef rib fingers.

- They only have seonjiguk. - But...

it's not an ordinary pork belly.

It comes with a sauce.

- You dip the meat in it. - He did some research.

You dip it.

- You dip it before you have it. - You have to eat it well.

(It's a pork belly you grill with the sauce.)

- Gosh. - It's a simple menu.

How many servings are we having?

Let's order two servings of the pork belly for now.

But we're 5 people, so you should order 5 servings.

- We're 2 people. - We are a party of 2.

- We're sitting here with you. - You said...

- you could endure it. - I'll prepare an acrostic poem.

- Mr. Owner? - "Mr. Owner."

- Gosh. Hello. - Hello.

- You're younger than expected. - Pardon?

- Are you the owner? - Yes.

Are you the second-generation owner?

Yes. My parents had run it since 1979.

Now I'm running it as a second generation.

I want to know why it is called seolleongtang.

We started off as a seolleongtang restaurant.

- I see. - We don't make it anymore.

We sold seolleongtang at first,

but we changed into a barbecue place later.

- But you didn't change the name. - No.

- We've used it for a long time. - I see.

- We'll order two pork belly... - Okay.

and one seonjiguk.

We serve 1 seonjiguk for free for 2 orders of meat.

- You serve it for free? - Yes.

- Thank you. - That will be our order.

If it's free for every two people...

- No. Don't mind them. - That's right.

- Should we prepare a table for two? - Yes.

Just for two.

(Disappointed)

(Soon, the charcoal comes in.)

Gosh.

- This is the sauce. - That looks really good. I see.

This is the special sauce, isn't it?

Yes. This is the sauce.

Can I smell it?

You can smell it.

- Gosh, this is... - I see.

- It reminds me of something. - The chicken skewers?

- Yes. - I can tell.

It's the sauce for the chicken skewers...

- we had when we were young. - You're right.

- Thank you. - You really have to try it.

It's very unique. They must have created the method.

Why is this place so popular?

Because it's delicious.

It's not that expensive either.

I think the sauce has the key.

It already smells good while getting cooked.

Look how rich this seonjiguk is.

- Gosh. - I'm going to have it.

- Actually, I love... - I'm going to smell it.

seonjiguk.

It's in a hot stone pot, so it has to be tasty.

I agree.

Some don't like it, but you like it, Tae Hyun?

- I like it. - This is what it is.

Gosh. It's good as expected.

- Mr. Lee. - Yes.

Would you give me the honor...

to grill the meat for you?

No, I'll grill it myself.

- You said you'd not do that. - Stop that already.

It's because they should grill the meat like that.

- What are you talking about? - You're mistreating the meat.

You flipped it too quickly. Gosh.

Just wait. What do you think the sauce is for?

- What are we supposed to do? - Gosh.

I used to work at a pork belly place.

Really? You grill it well. It looks delicious.

Of course.

Gosh. This is really good.

- Is it ready already? - Of course.

Okay. I'll give it a try, then.

Will it bring back the memories?

Everyone, he's eating it.

(Amazed)

(He is already amazed with the first bite.)

(It's good.)

- Is it that good? - Tae Hyun, it looks so good.

Hey. It's so good. Yes.

Gosh. It's superb.

(Yi Kyung hurries and tries a piece too.)

- Gosh. It's been so long. - Right now.

- Gosh. - You have to put all of them on it.

Put all of them on.

I can guarantee that one can't eat it...

will get very angry today.

- Are you going to be all right? - You'll be really angry.

- Are you all right? - Will you be okay with it?

- Are you good? - Yes. I'm good.

Gosh. It's so tasty.

(I'm not all right.)

Does the sauce make a difference?

- It's totally different. - It's completely different.

This is...

Like the galbi seasoning?

- Gosh. To be a galbi seasoning... - Is it...

- Is it like marinated galbi? - How should I say it?

Gosh. It's...

It smells like those skewers.

(He takes another bite because it's good.)

- It's on that side. - The sauce is insane.

- It's closer to the skewers. - The skewers, right?

- You're right. - You have to make a wrap.

- Is it a bit sweet? - Yes.

- Yes. - It's sweet.

I can see why they've been running for 40 years.

The sauce is filled with umami.

The sauce is the key.

The sauce has a kick.

It amplifies all the umami there is,

so it increases my appetite while I'm eating it.

(His eyes are locked in.)

The two of you are not fans of eating.

- But they're eating nonstop. - It's so good.

You have to have it.

(Gulping)

The system makes the meat...

cover in the smoky flavor.

As the grease drops, it creates a bigger flame.

- Yes. - The flame touches the meat.

What comes to my mind after eating this is,

"Why isn't this restaurant in every neighborhood?"

The sauce must be really special.

Right. They probably didn't teach anyone about the sauce.

It must be hard to make it.

- Gosh. - While introducing it...

Gosh. Director Cha is finally...

I'll pour you one...

- because you're grilling it well. - You're pouring me one.

- Sir, I'll do my best for you. - Have a drink.

- Handsome. - You're good.

If you have an older colleague like him at work,

it's really tough.

- They're nice to the bosses. - I'd quit right away.

They're super nice to their superiors.

They get promoted quickly.

- They love their bosses. - Should we give a toast?

- No, just the two of us. - The bosses love them too.

Don't mind them.

Okay. I'll be loyal to the company.

At the back, he'd be the one who badmouths Director Cha the most.

You know that, right?

I exist because of the company.

- Okay. - I exist...

because of you.

You have to watch out for someone like him.

I've never seen you eat so well.

What should we order now?

- It's really good. - Excuse me.

- Then... - Yes.

We'll have 2 servings of pork belly and 2 servings of beef rib fingers.

You are eating a lot.

It's real.

- It's really good. - It's really good.

That means it's really good.

- Goodness. - Please enjoy.

(The additional order of the meat is here.)

The beef is also...

Gosh. These are the beef rib fingers.

The beef rib fingers are one thing.

But the pork belly is really...

- in good quality. - I'll grill this first.

- Gosh. This is a good one, indeed. - It's...

It looks good.

(Eating)

I have a quiz in mind already.

(Finally, the opportunity to taste it is here.)

The seonjiguk and two pieces of meat are at stake.

- Are you giving us all the soup? - Two pieces of meat?

- The whole thing? - No.

We can enjoy it here...

- once. - Once.

It's because we're not ready to eat the beef yet.

- We can only have a spoonful? - It's not an important quiz.

It's before the main event.

It's not that much for a person to eat.

- Just give us the whole thing. - Gosh.

Exclude Dong Hyun for this one.

- Okay. - Sounds good.

- I'll exclude Dong Hyun. - I'm calling a timeout.

- Okay. - Sorry.

- I don't want to see him. - I was so hungry,

- so I couldn't think straight. - I just don't want to see him.

My apologies.

- Okay. - Here's the question.

When is the birthday...

of Director Cha's eldest princess?

(A quiz for a flatterer)

Gosh. Enough with the flattery.

- Come on. - Why?

What's wrong with his princess?

- Is that flattery? - For goodness' sake.

- You should watch out for him. - It should be "Up or down."

(Solve the quiz first.)

It's a birthday, so narrow it down.

- June 20. - Up.

September 20.

- September? - September 20.

- Is it the 20th? - Yes.

- Up. - September 21.

September 21? Up.

September 22.

- Up. - I have the answer.

September 24.

- Up. - September 25.

- Up. - I got it!

(It's slowly getting heated up.)

Isn't it September 23?

September 26.

(September 26)

- Up. - September 27.

- Say, "I got it." - I got it.

- I got it. - Yes.

- You have to say that. - I did.

- Seung Ho. - September 29.

- I got it. - It's correct.

(September 29)

- Is it September 29? - It's...

(Angry)

Timeout. It's even more vague...

than the acrostic poem.

Give us a quiz with a clear answer.

- Have this with the meat. - Okay.

- Come on. What did you say? - Thank you.

You said we should play a fair game.

- An acrostic poem is so subjective. - We have no choice.

(Dong Hyun was the one who tried to solve it...)

(more passionately than others.)

We can keep saying anything.

(He can't let it go.)

(What is it to act like this?)

He kept saying the answers too.

Can you give another quiz?

But you solved the quiz too.

Another quiz.

I'll have one piece first.

Have a piece of meat and the soup.

(He savors the pork belly slowly.)

Gosh. It must be good.

How is it?

- Is it good? - He looks happier.

Yi Kyung put it on a plate for a while.

- Yes. - Usually, the pork belly...

would get stiff in such a case.

But it's so tender.

- It's still so tender. - It has no problem.

(Thanks to the sauce, it stays moist after a while.)

Gosh. It smells delicious.

I didn't expect a birthday question.

- It was April 25. - Sir, how did you like it?

- Sir. - I should get out of here.

Gosh. Look at the visuals of the beef rib fingers.

It doesn't even make sense.

You can just devour it because it's beef.

But it shouldn't be too red.

It looks so good.

Which one do you think will be better?

The pork belly had such a strong impact.

- Be honest. - It was so tasty.

The pork belly looks better to me too.

Just now,

did you see him grabbing the chopsticks?

- I wondered which one I should eat. - Sir.

Thank you.

(Frowning)

- What? - Look how juicy it is.

- It smells unbelievably good. - Hey.

- Gosh. - Hey, it's enough.

It doesn't matter at all.

It smells like spicy skewers.

I can smell the spicy skewers.

Hey. It's totally different from the marinated galbi.

- Really? - Like Sang Uk said,

it has the taste of the sauce for the skewers.

The sauce for the skewers...

- can be too sweet sometimes. - Yes.

Like I said, because of its umami,

I keep craving it.

Which one do you like better?

It's the same as choosing between doenjang stew and kimchi stew.

- It's a matter of one's preference. - I see.

(Maybe it's a matter of one's preference.)

Should I add both of them?

- Gosh. It sounds good. - It's a collaboration.

I've never seen Tae Hyun eating that much.

It's nice. I love it so much.

Hey. You have to have this.

It doesn't make sense.

Because I can smell it...

and because it smells familiar, I'm more curious about it.

Should we take a quiz, then?

(Desperate)

Hey, this is...

- It's... - A quiz?

- You have to try it. - Let's start the quiz.

You'll get a pass when you get the quiz.

- And there'll be another quiz. - That person will get a pass too.

The two will eat this as much as they want.

- Okay. - Okay. Good.

- One will starve. - Yes.

- Will it be all right? - He might quit this job.

- It'll be over for him. - Okay.

Are you going to be all right? I'm asking you in advance.

- I'll be fine, of course. - Don't get sulky.

No.

- Are you good? - Yes.

We're ready.

(A quiz for the freeloaders)

After the S Apartment was built in Yeouido in 1971,

a line of other apartments followed.

To name an apartment back in the day,

"Blank" was used for its familiarity with the public.

What goes in the "Blank?"

Let me answer.

Gemstone names.

- Gemstone names? - Yes.

- Incorrect. - Let me answer.

- Seung Ho. - Bird.

Bird? Incorrect.

- Let me answer. Flower. - Flower?

Incorrect.

I saw the apartment names on my way here earlier.

- I saw the Crystal Apartment. - Yes.

There's the Crystal Apartment. There's the Milky Way Apartment.

The Milky Way?

Swan Apartment,

Peacock Apartment, Rose Apartment,

and Hwarang Apartment are all existing apartments.

So there are apartments with the things we mentioned.

Crystal. Yes. I thought the answer was gemstone.

- Crystal, Milky Way... - Gemstone, bird...

Sang Uk, what was your answer?

Flower.

The names came from a product that was popular at the time.

- A product? - A product?

Let me answer.

Toilet paper brands.

Incorrect.

(Hold on.)

I have an idea.

Cigarette.

- How are we supposed to get it? - If it's what I think it is,

it's inside this room.

- In this room? - In this room?

I can see it.

- Hurry up. - Let me answer.

Liquor.

- Incorrect. - It must be similar.

I see it in my line of sight.

In your line of sight?

(No smoking)

I'm looking at it.

I'm not looking far into the distance.

I'm not looking far into the distance.

- Let me answer. - I'm looking at it now.

Bicycle?

- Incorrect. - I'm looking at it directly.

What are you looking at?

I'm looking at it directly.

I took a photo of my line of sight.

- Please share it. - I see it.

It's my line of sight.

- Slowly, - I can't see it from the side.

I zoomed in.

- Don't look at it for too long. - I have no idea.

- Okay. I figured it out. - Trash can?

- Incorrect. - Let me answer. I figured it out.

- It's so easy. - Cigarette names.

Cigarette names? Correct.

- Okay. - Correct.

There's the no smoking sign.

(Smoking is bad for your health.)

- I'll grill it right away. - Okay. Thank you.

You'll know once you eat it.

It's so delicious.

- It smells so good. - You know how it tastes.

Hurry up. They must be struggling.

(Teasing)

- He licked it a bit. - Did your tongue touch the meat?

- It touched the meat. - Come on! But I'll still eat it.

(Laughing)

It's so tasty.

I'll keep giving you meat.

Gosh, this is...

- Will you make a wrap? - My goodness.

When can we receive a question?

- What? - A question.

- A question. - Hurry up.

(The problem solvers of Yeouido are angry.)

If you want a question, I'll give it now.

There's not much pork belly left. You need to hurry up.

At the time it was built,

the National Assembly Building was designed with various meanings.

Among them, the 365 "Blank..."

in the main hall of the building contains the meaning...

that the members of the National Assembly...

should work hard 365 days a year for the citizens.

What goes in the "Blank?"

- Let me answer. - The National Assembly Building?

- Stairs. - Stairs? Incorrect.

- It was similar. - Let me answer.

- What is it? - Windows.

Windows? Incorrect.

- Let me answer. - They urge them to work hard.

- Chairs. - Chairs? Incorrect.

- I want to eat it with rice. - Go ahead.

- Let me answer. - Sang Uk.

Lamps. Lights.

(Lights)

Correct.

- Lights. - Lights?

- The lights should be turned on. - Yes.

(365 lights were installed so that they would work hard.)

Seung Ho lost.

(Sang Uk succeeds in getting food.)

I'm ruined.

Seung Ho wanted to eat.

This is exactly what will happen during the fine-dining experience.

Seriously. I can see it.

I can see the future.

I really wanted to eat seonjiguk.

- It's so tasty. - Try it.

Seonji is so soft.

It's tasty, right?

- It's no joke. - I want to eat it with rice.

- It's a proper dish. - It needs two pieces of meat.

It's like combining the two best dishes.

(Clapping like a seal)

Did you try the meat?

As soon as I ate it...

You know the skewer with chicken and green onion, right?

- Yes. - It smelled like that sauce.

- Your expressions have improved. - It really tastes like that sauce.

- The chicken dish. - That's right.

I really want to eat that tender meat.

That's mine. Give it to me.

(Laughing)

Look how soft it is.

(Seung Ho suddenly shoves in his plate.)

What's this? It can't be done.

There are rules, so it can't be done.

I just tried it to see if I'd get a piece or not.

I just shoved it in.

- It's so tasty. - Of course.

- It's nice. - It's so tender.

(The 3rd attempt)

I told you so.

(The 4th attempt)

You know,

it's leaner than pork belly.

It's really lean.

I love the texture.

(Eat some vegetables.)

(Dong Hyun teases him again.)

(The 5th attempt)

I did it in the most natural way.

I keep getting vegetables.

(He gets a piece of sweet potato.)

- What kind of a vegetable is it? - What is it?

Isn't it a piece of sweet potato?

Thank you. Gosh, this is a tasty cut.

Pork belly is the best in this restaurant.

(He gets a wet wipe.)

Pork belly is the best.

I like this better.

I'm not saying that you should break the rules to look after me.

- But you could make a mistake... - That's right.

and suddenly put meat on it.

- That's right. - You could do that.

(He gains a plate.)

I'm getting many things.

Kimchi and beef galbi.

Kimchi and beef galbi.

It's like a magical chest. It keeps coming.

The marketing team should work a bit harder.

How should I say it? Let's bring in more profits.

- If you set the goal... - The goal?

The goal is...

the first place in the industry.

- You have quick wits. - Thank you.

The director likes it.

- You need to do things yourself. - What did you eat?

What did you eat? You put something in your mouth.

I stole a piece of meat from Intern Kim.

(Confident)

Hold on. This is unfair.

- Life is unfair. - What?

You should hold on to your things.

- At all times... - How was I supposed to do that?

- I was looking at you. - Still...

- Seriously. - If you give a toast, we'll follow.

- Please check the bill. - Okay.

The total keeps going up.

How much is it? It's because we fed them.

(Total: 94 dollars)

Until lunch, we were like, "It's okay."

- Forty, fifty, and hundred dollars. - Yes.

Now, it's a bit...

It's close to 100 dollars.

Now, you'll get a quiz about pork belly.

- Pork belly? - Pork belly.

- Not Yeouido? - For goodness' sake.

We're getting a quiz now.

When you eat grilled pork belly,

- garlic is essential. - Yes.

According to an informational show,

garlic contains allicin...

which gives it a spicy flavor.

But it contains more sugar than people normally think.

Now,

list garlic, Coca-Cola, and onion...

in the order of high sugar content.

We're using Brix as a measurement.

- Garlic, Coca-Cola, and onion? - It's so easy.

Is it easy?

It's so easy.

Everyone thinks...

- that Coca-Cola comes first. - Yes.

We can see what the wrong answer is.

We can see what the wrong order is.

- What's that order? - Coca-Cola, onion, and garlic.

That's the most obvious order.

- Dong Hyun. - Yes?

- We're in different teams. - Okay.

I got confused for a second.

Why don't you eat a garlic clove if you're okay with it?

- That sounds wrong. - See if you taste the sweetness.

There's no way I'll taste the sweetness.

Have a small bite.

How much sweetness do you taste?

This is... You know what?

- Spiciness... - It's pretty sweet.

Really?

Is it because I had a small bite?

Tteokbokki contains a lot of sugar,

but you don't taste the sweetness because it's spicy.

You don't taste the sweetness in garlic because it's bitter,

but it's very sweet.

It's sweeter than Coca-Cola.

(Is that so?)

- It's practically sugar. - Not bad.

Still, I think onion is sweeter.

- Same here. - Come on.

There are people who make dalgona with garlic.

With garlic.

It's the order of sugar content.

Had onion had more sugar than Coca-Cola,

there would've been an article.

- There was an article. - Zero sugar...

There was an article.

- There was an article. - Coca-Cola, onion, and garlic?

(He doesn't listen to Dong Hyun.)

Without a twist?

It's too obvious.

Why would they ask such an obvious question?

Think about it.

Coca-Cola contains 30g of sugar, right?

The same amount of garlic will contain more sugar.

- Sang Uk. - Don't compare it to one clove.

- Make Dong Hyun shut up. - Imagine a pile of garlic.

- It's practically sugar. - Okay.

- Why are you solving the question? - Okay.

We could be confused about the sugar content.

One can of Coca-Cola contains this much sugar.

We check the Brix for fruits.

(The man who advocated for garlic's sweetness gets quiet.)

The higher the Brix, the higher the commercial value.

- Yes. - It means that it's sweeter.

Hello? Okay. We're on our way.

It's the fine-dining restaurant. They want us to hurry.

They gave me a call.

- The food will get cold. - Seriously.

- They cooked in advance. - Yes.

Shall we go with Coca-Cola, onion, and garlic?

- Okay. - All right.

Here is the answer. Coca-Cola, onion, and garlic...

- is the order of sugar content. - Garlic.

Coca-Cola, onion, and garlic.

The order can't be onion, garlic, and Coca-Cola.

It can't be correct.

- It can't be correct. - Incorrect.

- Okay. - Yes.

Is the order onion, garlic, and Coca-Cola?

- I actually checked. - Tae Hyun.

- Did you check? - I was so surprised.

- What is it? - Is garlic the sweetest?

- What is it? - I was so surprised.

- It'll be 1 of the 2. - Yes.

The one who answers first will be exempt.

- First? - There aren't many options.

Let me answer. Garlic, onion, and Coca-Cola.

- One try at a time. - Garlic, onion, and Coca-Cola?

- Backwards. - Then my answer is...

onion, Coca-Cola, and garlic.

- Both answers are incorrect. - Let me answer.

Onion, garlic, and Coca-Cola.

- Incorrect. - It's my turn.

- What? - Hold on.

- You have the answer now. - What was it? Hold on.

- Five, four, three... - Hold on. Let me think.

- Let me think. - Wait. What's my next option?

You might get another chance. You never know.

- Give it a go. - I don't know.

Garlic, Coca-Cola, onion.

Correct.

Does garlic come first?

- Does garlic come 1st? - Does it come 1st?

- Garlic comes 1st. - It's 3 times sweeter than melon.

- I read an article. - In terms of the sugar content?

Yes. It's three times sweeter than melon.

I see. I had no idea.

Director, thank you for the food.

Gosh, Yi Kyung.

- I just need to avoid paying next. - That's right.

Let's go and pay.

(He gets apprehended for payment.)

- The total is 94 dollars. - Okay.

(Total: 94 dollars)

- Thank you for the food. - Thank you.

I can't believe...

that garlic comes first. It was impossible to get it right.

Thank you for the food.

We'll enjoy ourselves at a fine-dining restaurant too.

Not bad.

(Thanks to Director Cha,)

(they happily set off to the next location.)

(The next destination)

Where are we?

Then this place...

Where was the old MBC building?

- The old MBC building? - Sang Uk and I have no idea.

- Was this the old MBC building? - Yes.

- It's this one. - Yes. It's this one.

It's this one.

(Destination, the members' current location)

- This was the MBC building. - Yes.

(The old MBC building was behind the members.)

I had no idea that the old MBC building was here.

(They move past the memories of Director Cha.)

The buildings make me feel like I'm in a different world.

We came to the most popular place.

(They head toward the second DMR location.)

It's impossible to enter on the weekend.

You're handsome!

Me? Thank you.

Me? Thank you.

- "Me?" - Dong Hyun...

- gained courage. - She wasn't talking to you.

- "Me?" - Dong Hyun gained courage.

She told me that I was handsome.

(What's the second location of DMR?)

There's a 20 percent chance that it's me.

- Hello. - Welcome.

- Hello. - Hello.

- What? - This is incredible.

This place is insane.

(They enter in an astonished state.)

(You go past the elegant reception under the soft light.)

(The main hall is made up of graceful curves.)

(There are high-end dishware and objects.)

It'll be so nice to come here with my parents and loved ones.

(It's a place you want to visit on a special day...)

(with a special person.)

(My goodness)

- This is insane. - This is incredible.

- Seriously. - We came to the right place.

- This place is amazing. - What? We can see the Han River.

(In both day and night, the place offers the best view.)

(We welcome you to a fine-dining restaurant,)

(the second DMR in Yeouido.)

Seriously,

this is the view of success.

The view alone must be worth 300 dollars.

That must be the flat fee.

Aren't you glad that you chose a fine dining restaurant?

Totally.

- You won't feel bad about paying. - Well,

it'll be better if I don't pay.

Have you been to fine-dining restaurants?

I'm not used to fine dining.

(I'm not used to fine dining.)

I rarely go shopping or buy clothes.

- I don't care about fashion. - It seems that way.

But... Right? You're right.

But I love food.

Eating tasty food in the evening is my happiness.

- So I visit every 2 to 3 months. - You visit often.

- That's quite often. - I do it with my wife.

On our birthdays, anniversaries, or Christmas,

we visit a fine dining restaurant.

(The loving husband enjoys fine-dining with his wife.)

This is a place I can't visit easily.

I feel like I'm getting treated.

This room must be more expensive.

There must be a requirement for a number of people.

We were seated here so that we couldn't see the view.

Seriously.

- You know, - We can't see the view.

I feel so lucky.

- Hello. - Hello. It's nice to meet you.

- My goodness. - Hello. It's nice to meet you.

I'm the chef in charge at the F Hotel...

and the head chef of this restaurant.

My name is Lee Dae Geon. It's nice to meet you.

He's our chef.

(Chef Lee Dae Geon, Yeouido F Hotel's chef in charge)

(He has 20 years of experience from hotels around the world.)

M Restaurant uses the seasonal ingredients.

I picked the ingredients that suit spring.

I prepared only the best ingredients.

(Today's dishes will use springtime ingredients.)

As you know, carabinero shrimp is very expensive.

You'll get that shrimp, caviar, abalone, asparagus,

and a precious dish of suckling pig.

I'll cook the dishes with care so that they'll be tasty.

I hope you make good memories today.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(The second DMR in Yeouido starts now.)

Take photos.

(On a pretty plate...)

(is the first dish of the day.)

(It's so pretty.)

What's in front of you...

isn't a part of the course. It's a greeting from the chef.

(A greeting from the chef that isn't a part of the course)

If it's like a greeting, can't we get it as well?

- Shall we prepare it? - If it's like a greeting...

- It can't be done. - Is that so?

- Okay. - Why not?

- You startled me. - Thanks for the offer, but...

The chef who is preparing the tasty dishes...

gives this to express his gratitude.

You can't eat it alone. Isn't that right?

People can't drop by, eat this, and leave, right?

- You're right. - Exactly.

I said hello to the chef.

It can't be done.

(What's this?)

Is it shine muscat?

In front of you...

is a greeting from the chef called an amuse-bouche.

(Amuse-bouche is an appetizer that's served before the meal.)

The topmost one at the 12 o'clock direction...

uses a seasonal ingredient, flounder.

- Is this a flounder? - It's a crunchy tart.

There's an apple sauce inside.

(Flounder tart with the apple sauce)

The bottom one at the 9 o'clock direction...

is a fried webfoot octopus.

It's topped with stringy stonecrop.

The one at the very bottom has been made with green plum.

It has the shape and texture of marshmallow.

It'll wrap up the appetizer.

Is this flounder?

- I thought it was shine muscat. - Shine muscat.

Gosh, it smells nice.

It smells like flowers.

(He takes a bite.)

(He puts it in his mouth!)

(Curious)

(How does the chef's greeting taste?)

(The taste makes them laugh.)

- It's thick. - I can't imagine the taste.

The appetizer is a bit sweet,

thick,

and clean-tasting.

It's a taste I haven't had before.

I can't compare it to anything.

Is it soft?

(How about the second one, the fried webfoot octopus?)

(Chewing)

(Why? How is it?)

It's a fried dish.

But it has been fried very lightly.

The webfoot octopus is very soft.

- That's right. - It's half sashimi.

- It's tender. - Yes.

It smells like cheese.

(They wrap up with the sweet marshmallow.)

(The bite-sized pieces stimulate the appetite.)

But this is... Why don't we get the option...

like the last time?

- What? - When it was our turn,

we let people in your team try the food.

- The food disappears so quickly. - I know.

- It's ridiculous. - There's no way.

(However, food keeps coming when you have a course meal.)

What's this?

This is incredible.

The first dish is the caviar.

Caviar.

This is incredible.

(The first dish contains the restaurant's pride.)

There's gold.

The top layer is the crystal caviar.

We use a caviar brand of the highest quality.

Under the caviar is the high-end shrimp from Spain...

called the carabinero shrimp.

- We scoop it up like this. - It's one each.

- Like this. - There's something inside.

Look at this.

It looks like this.

- Did you see it? - Yes.

- I want to show it to you. - It's fascinating.

To whom are you showing it?

To whom are you showing it?

It's so tasty.

When you held it up to show it to the camera,

the two of them flinched.

To whom are you showing it?

(Is he teasing us?)

To whom are you showing it?

For goodness' sake.

(I'm sorry.)

(How does the caviar dish taste?)

This shrimp smells so good.

It's like eating something straight from the sea.

And there's something like almond.

He talked about macadamia.

I wish I could give you a bite.

I'll give you a bite.

- It's new. - Just like that?

- A question... - Can we eat it?

Aren't you curious about my birthday?

- I know. - Curious, my foot.

September 30.

- Is it correct? - Yes.

I'll give you a bite. It's new.

(Yi Kyung is quick-witted.)

It's the most luxurious dish.

(Happy)

(Is this how it's going to be?)

How does it taste?

It's...

the scent of the sea people like the most.

Tae Hyun.

Have a big spoonful.

I like macadamia.

I gave it to Tae Hyun for a spoonful,

but he's destroying it.

(He's destroying the caviar dish.)

I found it.

I want to have...

- a bite with macadamia. - It's tasty.

That's the key point.

Give it back now.

He mixed it...

so that I could eat it easily.

He mixed it.

(A special gourmet experience at a fine-dining restaurant)

So this is how caviar tastes.

Here's another one.

(This is just the beginning.)

- The plate is so pretty. - Is that a plate?

The second dish is the beef tartare.

It has been prepared with the avocado cream and egg yolk...

which has been turned into a jelly.

The pretty plate underneath...

represents the season of cherry blossoms that is to come...

and was prepared for you to enjoy in advance in Yeouido.

It was prepared for us to enjoy...

the season of cherry blossoms that is to come in Yeouido.

The explanation was incredible.

This is really...

(It's time to taste Yeouido's spring.)

(Taking a bite)

(Putting into his mouth)

What is this?

(Satisfied)

Seriously though...

As soon as it went into my mouth,

I thought, "How was it seasoned like this?"

It's an amazing combination.

It's a beef tartare and to make it go well with the cracker,

a bit of pepper was added.

The scent of the cracker could be felt at the end.

It didn't feel strongly seasoned.

It felt clean.

This must really feel therapeutic.

The next dish is an abalone and asparagus dish.

(Asparagus royale with fresh abalone and Parmesan espuma)

A bit of wild chive oil is sprinkled.

- That sounds great. - That is a vegetable...

that represents spring.

You are spot on. That is why we serve this.

I can smell it right away.

(Perfect for his taste)

- Gosh. - It's pretty.

If you wish to have more texture,

you can have it with the pistachio...

- placed underneath. - Pistachio?

(Pistachio for more texture)

(A big mouthful of abalone with the taste of spring)

It's a soup, but it tastes a bit like mushroom.

- It's really good. - The flying fish roe.

The big flying fish roe gives a good texture too.

It's really good.

This is crunchy like shrimp.

Does it not have the bitter taste of asparagus?

No. I love this.

(Dong Hyun has cleared his plate in a flash.)

(Is there something left?)

This is really good.

(What is that?)

- What? - Is it new?

This is really good.

Try it.

(Eating...)

(and eating again)

Right.

(Chewing)

You ate all of the pistachio?

It's really good.

(Empty)

It's delicious.

(Seung Ho takes a bite too.)

- It's a lot of work to peel them. - Right.

Pigeons would go crazy for this.

This could be taken out...

and fed from our pockets.

Like this.

- Fine-dining pistachio. - It's really good.

- Was the pistachio this good? - It's really good.

It's okay. I'm done.

- More pistachio. - I won't have it!

- Gosh. - How can I eat all of this?

Since we're in Yeouido...

- When we leave, - How may I help you?

could you pack Dong Hyun some pistachio?

(He's really enjoying it.)

To be honest, after serving the dish here,

I've never seen anyone finish all of it.

We collected all of it for him.

Really?

That was three bowls put together.

Really?

You finished all of it,

so I thought you found it to be really good.

- The chef must feel so proud. - Right.

He will smile ear to ear.

- He ate all of the pistachio. - He ate all of the pistachio.

- He ate everything except the bowl. - This is really hard to make.

- Right? - Yes.

I'll be honest.

Rather than it being a dish cooked,

it feels like a work of art.

Right.

I think chefs have an amazing imagination.

This dish was created.

(With the best ingredients,)

(the best cuisine experience...)

(is provided through fine-dining.)

(The plate is the drawing paper...)

(and the ingredients become a story.)

The roasted suckling pig...

has been prepared to be crispy on the outside...

and light on the inside.

To add a bit of sourness, the kumquat...

and the kumquat sauce will be served as well.

(Taking a bite)

(An amazing texture that unfolds in the mouth)

- Gosh! - Gosh!

The skin feels crispy, but it's so juicy inside.

- The sauce is amazing. - It's crispy.

When it starts to feel greasy, the refreshing flavor hits you.

That must be the last one.

It must be a sherbet.

You are precise.

This is like a sherbet that will freshen up your mouth.

It looks like a sherbet,

but it's called the granita that started in Sicily.

(Freshening up the mouth with a refreshing sherbet...)

(in the middle of the course)

Gosh.

It just freshens you up.

It has the refreshing taste you get from chewing gum.

- Yes. As soon as you put it in. - It's sweet too.

Here is the branzino, the European seabass.

It is served with the tea tree mushroom and puree.

Please enjoy it with the sea urchin roe sauce.

(Grilled branzino, duck egg, artichoke, tea tree mushroom,)

(sea urchin roe sauce)

Isn't this truffle?

No. It isn't that.

It's the dried fig.

- It's the tea tree mushroom. - I'm sorry.

- Tea tree mushroom? - He gets everything wrong.

This isn't a mushroom, is it?

You were very close.

It's a crumble made with duck eggs.

He's responding to everything we say.

He never says we're wrong.

- Well... - He's always so positive.

(The positive man of this area)

There must be a rule where you can't say no.

It's not like that, but we try our best...

not to make our customers feel embarrassed.

- I see. - We try our best not to do that.

- They should never feel that way. - Right.

Thank you so much.

It's better for us to feel embarrassed,

so we'll do our best.

(Shall we carry on with the sixth dish of the course?)

(Taking a bite of the plump seabass meat)

- Right. - The main dish.

So this is...

- Gosh. - It wasn't fully cooked.

That is why it tastes even better.

- It tastes better that way? - It just melts.

(The seabass meat just melts in your mouth.)

- It really just melts. - It's so good.

- I see. - Right.

The outside is crispy, but the inside...

takes in the fork right away.

(Grilled delicately for it to be crispy and soft at the same time)

Gosh.

(Touched)

Gosh.

The skin tastes so good.

This skin is amazing.

This must be because Sang Uk has been abroad often.

He feels different with his table manners.

Why? What's different?

(His knife is placed to face the top?)

Was there a reason you placed it like this?

It was because it wouldn't stand on one side.

I always place it like this,

but it kept facing the top.

- That was why it was like that? - Yes.

I see.

This happened to me before.

I placed the fork and knife here to talk.

But this means you're done eating in another country.

That was why my plate was taken away.

- I see. - It had to be placed like this...

for it not to be taken away.

(It means you are still eating if your fork and knife are on.)

Night has come...

and the night view has started to appear.

(Seen from the 29th floor)

The lights are coming on.

(The flashy lights in the night view of Seoul)

(It's time for the main dish.)

This is the tenderloin steak.

Spring greens were used...

and made into a pie.

(Charcoal-grilled Korean tenderloin and spring green tart)

To provide more of a savory taste,

the deodeok sauce will be added.

(Deodeok sauce full of the scent of spring)

Gosh, it smells sweet.

- It's pretty. - Is this rare?

It has been cooked very rare for the two of you.

- Very rare? - Yes.

- It has the same color. - If you slice it,

- you'll be able to tell. - It doesn't look rare...

from the outside at all.

What? Right.

This is the tenderloin steak.

(Stretching)

(Stretching)

Isn't there something wrong with this?

- The size. - Oh, right.

Did someone have some of it on the way here?

Did something happen to it?

Hold on.

This is a bit...

Is this a kid's dish?

A kid's dish.

You can surely feel that way about it.

(He responded to that too?)

He even responded to that?

"You can surely feel that way about it."

(You can surely feel that way about it.)

- It's very rare. - How does it look?

- How does yours look? - I'll cut it.

(Squishy)

It's like this.

(The rare meat shows its red side.)

- Gosh. - Was that the color you wanted?

That must be cold.

It was the color I wanted.

- It looks cold. - It looks cold.

(It's perfect for me.)

Gosh.

(Adding the sauce and green pesto)

(Eating it in one bite!)

(Mouth watering)

(He's just amazed.)

- It's very rare. - It's very rare.

It tastes amazing.

- Right. - Is it that good?

(The small and precious medium well-done steak for Dong Hyun)

(He takes a bite.)

(He takes another bite.)

It feels different.

That's what I think.

(Amazed)

What? Gosh.

Where did it go?

Did they not serve you?

Did someone steal it from me?

His plate is empty all of a sudden.

(The meat is too small for the athlete.)

(This isn't the end yet.)

The first dessert is the creme brulee.

(Earl grey creme brulee)

It's like the milk pudding.

- Milk pudding? - Black sugar?

- Right. - It tastes like black sugar.

We tried that.

(Another surprising dessert gets served.)

This is something that makes you feel happy.

This is an amazing type of ice cream.

(Served like a work of art)

- Really? - It's ice cream.

- What is it? - Ice cream.

- Gelato? - Vanilla?

That was very close.

(It's not wrong. It was very close.)

- Sir, you're very kind. - Really?

Was my guess close? Is it like vanilla?

Isn't it a boiled egg?

I also get them confused.

(I also get them confused.)

Seriously?

- Thank you. - He's impressive.

In front of you, it's what's called the Ispahan.

It's flavored with raspberries and lychee.

It's a type of chocolate.

On the right is Mascarpone ice cream. Thank you.

(It's Mascarpone ice cream, not a boiled egg.)

When you push it, it goes in.

(A raspberry mousse cake that's as soft as sponge)

It's bread.

(A raspberry mousse cake that's as soft as sponge)

It looks so cute.

(It's in charge of wrapping up today's course meal.)

(Exclaiming)

- It's similar to milk ice cream. - It's very good.

(The most wonderful sweetness ever)

- It's clear. - Isn't it tasty?

- This is amazing. - This is great.

(They finish the meal.)

- Once we get the bill... - Now, I'm feeling the pressure.

I'm feeling the pressure.

(Pressured)

- You didn't know while eating? - No.

This is really...

(The other team also feels pressured.)

If they get the quiz right...

(Then the bill arrives.)

Here's your bill.

- How much is it? - Well, it's...

(How much is the fine-dining?)

How much is it approximately?

It's 774 dollars.

Let me take a look.

(250 per person, a total of 774 dollars)

(It's more than I thought.)

All right.

(Thrill to its max)

Dong Hyun, we just need to answer the quiz.

Exactly.

Okay.

(Who'll Pay? Time for Quiz)

Here's the question.

The end of a table knife is blunt.

After experiencing this...

during a meal with a guest, a cardinal in France ordered...

the sharp end...

of the table knife to be blunt.

What had happened?

- This is... - Didn't he drop the knife?

He dropped the knife,

so his foot got stabbed.

It could be something like that.

While cutting something, he dropped the knife.

His foot got stabbed.

Did you know that the fencing sword is blunt at the end?

- I didn't know. - I knew that.

The end is round.

- It's a little... - It's to prevent you...

from getting stabbed.

Since he knows about swords...

Aren't you an expert in knives?

- I think that's the closest guess. - I've dropped it a lot.

How about this idea?

He had a guest over, and the end of the knife was broken.

He couldn't allow a broken knife...

to be served to his guests.

If it's round, it'd be easier to wash.

Maybe that's why he suggested it.

You don't like it? Then forget about it.

(He gives up quickly when it isn't well received.)

I have ten more ideas.

The cook gave them forks and knives,

and his hands were cut.

(Laughing)

- "What happened to you?" - Because he was bleeding?

"What happened to you?"

"I was washing them, but the knives were sharp."

"I got cut."

While washing the dishes.

Since he was a cardinal,

he wanted to protect the hands of his cooks.

Doesn't it sound reasonable?

Listen. Here's something we must remember.

It's something that took place during their meal.

- Right. - Forget about anything before.

You're right.

- I knew it. - He brought him back to his senses.

(He went a little too far.)

- The answer is in the question. - He was going far,

- The answer is in the question. - but Seung Ho caught him.

He grabbed him by the collar.

He pulled him back to his senses.

- The first one is right. - I boldly crossed this out.

- This can't be it. - This one...

An accident took place because he dropped the knife.

We'll go with this.

It's because...

of a dangerous situation...

caused by the drop of a knife.

- Is that why? - Is that your big picture?

Because of an accident...

caused by the drop of a knife?

(What does the future hold for them?)

(Because of a dangerous situation caused by the drop of a knife)

Incorrect.

I told you.

It's incorrect.

See? That was...

It's only right that we got it wrong.

- Among the three of you... - Okay.

- What do we do? - It was a good guess.

- Are you two safe? - Yes.

- Tae Hyun. - Congratulations.

(We're safe.)

- We're safe. - Okay.

What's the answer?

- It's too expensive. - Here it is.

- What is it? - He was shocked...

to see his guest picking his teeth with the knife.

- It was impossible to guess. - It was impossible.

After seeing his guest do this?

- That was impossible to guess. - Right.

Now, it's an individual game.

Here's the first additional quiz...

- to determine who will pay. - That sounds fun.

In the 70s and 80s,

group blind dates were popular.

Depending on where the dates took place,

a date at a dance club was called dance club date.

A date at a pear field was called pear date.

Then where did land date take place?

- "Land date?" - "Land date?"

This is very difficult.

(What is land date?)

- I have no idea at all. - During the 70s and 80s...

It has to be hard because the price at stake is high.

Land date during the 70s and 80s?

- I know. - Player Kim Dong Hyun?

Pear date on a pear field.

Land date on a peanut field?

- A peanut field? - It was during the 70s,

so there are many fields. Peanut field.

Incorrect.

- A date in the earth? - A date in the earth?

That's incorrect.

Land date.

Here's a hint. It's related to a means of transportation.

A means of transportation? I know.

The word comes from the sound.

Ttang, ttang, ttang.

A date behind a cultivator.

(Laughing)

- Incorrect. - There were many cultivators...

in the 80s.

That was a brave approach.

Incorrect.

- Motorcycle. - Motorcycle? Incorrect.

- Rickshaw? - Incorrect.

- Bus. - Incorrect.

- Boat. - Incorrect.

- Train. - Train? Incorrect.

There's nothing else.

- What else is there? - That's all I can come up with.

Say all types of transportation.

- I know. - There has to be more.

- Airplane? - Incorrect.

- I know. Subway. - Correct.

(That's right.)

How so?

Nice. Was there a subway back then?

- That's right. - There was subway in the 80s.

- Of course. - It was a cool space.

Young people must have thought that it was a fancy place.

This is wonderful.

(Sang Uk escaped.)

(Only two people remain.)

Won't it be better to split the bill?

- What? - Split the bill?

Or do you want to get to the end?

Just buy me a meal now.

It's too late.

(Laughing)

If you had asked me that when we got here, I'd happily pay,

but this isn't treating you.

It feels like paying because I lost.

- It's because... - Losing can become a habit.

- Okay. - You should do it.

With 774 dollars at stake, let's go.

- I'm in. - Here's the question.

M Guide gives stars to restaurants...

all over the world.

It started from guide books...

published by a French tire company...

in order to increase their sales.

This guide rates restaurants...

by giving stars.

A one-star rating means that the restaurant is...

worth a stop when visiting that region.

A three-star rating means that it's worth picking the region...

as your destination in order to try the restaurant.

Then what does a two-star rating mean?

- I know. - Okay, he's got it.

It means, "I'll come back if I visit this region again."

- Incorrect. - I know.

"It's worth waiting in line."

Incorrect.

"It's okay to starve from the morning to eat here."

Incorrect.

"This restaurant comes up on GPS."

Incorrect.

"In order to eat here..."

(Giving all kinds of ideas)

"It's okay to pay the parking fee."

- It's okay to pay the parking fee. - That's good.

That's a good condition.

In this context, the region doesn't refer...

to a small area.

- It could be Korea or Japan. - A country?

- In the US, it'd be a state. - I know.

"I'd visit here again for this restaurant."

Incorrect. It has nothing to do with visiting again.

I know.

Let's say that they came to travel in Korea.

- Seriously... - They came to travel in Korea.

They went to see Gyeongbokgung Palace,

but a restaurant with two stars is in Busan.

They'd go to Busan for this restaurant.

(What does that mean?)

That's a little...

Correct.

(Kim Dong Hyun is correct.)

I give you credit for it.

(It's worth a detour to visit the restaurant.)

Seung Ho is the one to pay.

(Shin Seung Ho is the one to pay 774 dollars.)

Dong Hyun always survives at the end.

I came from behind.

- He reminds me of someone. - It was...

similar to that.

I can treat you anytime.

I just hate losing.

- I don't like losing. - Today's ending was amazing.

- I have to win. - Won't it be part of history?

- Seung Ho, I enjoyed watching you. - Thank you for the food.

Seung Ho treated us.

Seung Ho, you're generous.

(They enjoyed fine dining thanks to generous Seung Ho.)

(Dinner recommendations in Yeouido)

(Tae Hyun: Fine-dining once a year can be a good experience.)

(Dong Hyun: Fine-dining with people you love will be memorable.)

(Sang Uk: Fine-dining can be healing in repetitive everyday life.)

(Yi Kyung: Pork belly is the best comfort food for Koreans.)

(Seung Ho: Meat lovers can eat pork belly without hesitation.)

(Next neighborhood)

(Hip and sentimental alleys)

(Eulji-ro)

(As Yi Kyung will be missing,)

(a great guest appears!)

(The large gourmet, Lee Dae Ho)
