THE VILLAGE BARBER

THE VILLAGE BARBER

I need to get some rest.

Yes, let's get some rest. First, let's sit down.

THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER FINALLY GETS A MOMENT TO SIT

My back hurts.

THEY BEGIN TO GROAN IN PAIN AGAIN

JI-HUI BROWSES EVERY CORNER

Ji-hui, how old are you?

I'm nine.

- You're nine? - You're ten now.

You're ten now?

A FATHERLY SMILE AT HEARING HER AGE

- Is she the same age as your girl? - Yes.

How adorable.

THE DAD WITH A DAUGHTER LOOKS AT HER ENDEARINGLY

Back when we were doing a shoot

we once had a team dinner or some occasion like that.

But you had to leave early, and I asked why.

Then you said you had to pick up your daughter

because otherwise, your wife would scold you.

Yes. Wait.

Wait, she doesn't scold me.

Is your wife

the tougher one?

No, not at all.

She's not tough at all.

She's a very reasonable person.

She's very reasonable

and she's great.

She teaches me many things

through conversations.

- What? - Wait, a call.

Would you like to pick it up?

Hello, you have reached The Village Barber.

Yes, ma'am.

SWITCHING INTO HIS CUSTOMER-SERVICE VOICE

Yes, Ji-hui and Seon-hui are here.

ALL EARS

You would like them back home?

- Right now? - If they are there, send them home.

Yes, ma'am. I'll bring the girls back home.

- No! - No...

- Bye. - It's Grandma.

Did she ask to bring Ji-hui and Seon-hui home?

Babies.

- Yes? - Your fun time is over.

You have to go home.

Da-in, keep doing your homework.

Ji-hui and Seon-hui, you're coming with me.

- I'll tag along too. One second. - Sure.

- RAIN, should I put on my jacket? - Huh?

- Yes, let's do that. It's cold. - It is.

THE PROFESSIONAL OUTDOOR WORKER PUTS HIS JACKET ON VOLUNTARILY

We'll be back.

THE QUADRICYCLE THE PART-TIMER CAME ON

- Girls, do you want to hop on? - Yes.

Should we take the quadricycle?

- It's boring to walk home. - It's a quadricycle!

A quadricycle.

- A quadricycle. - Can you two pedal?

- Yes. - Yes, I'm good at riding bicycles.

Let's go! But I don't know where you live.

- Tell us where. - I know where.

We'll tell you.

It won't move.

SPEEDING UP WITH HIS MUSCLES

Have you two got money?

- Yes. - Really?

This taxi ride will cost a lot.

Left or right?

This side!

- We're going to Ms. Ou's place? - Yes.

- Ma'am! - Grandma!

Grandma!

Goodness, those rascals are having fun.

They're having fun with the uncles.

MS. OU CAME OUT TO MEET THE KIDS

- You're here. - Ms. Ou!

Ms. Ou is right here.

- It's been a while. - Yes.

- Hello, ma'am. - Goodness.

- He's a new part-timer. - I'm a new member.

- You may get off, Ji-hui. - Grandma!

- Goodness. - Nice to meet you, ma'am.

Sorry? Where are we going?

ESCORTED INSIDE SMOOTHLY

Hello.

Ms. Ou.

It's been pretty chilly since yesterday. Aren't you cold?

No.

Are you giving up? Why?

I'm tired.

Wait. The purpose of my visit...

I didn't come here to read a book.

- What was the reason? - I came to get a haircut.

- Da-in? - Yes.

- You came for a haircut? - Yes.

For real?

But I ended up doing my homework.

UNTIL NOW, DA-IN

PLAYED WITH THE UNCLES IN THE RECEPTION ROOM

Deliver these for us, please.

SHE HAS BEEN HELPING OUT AT THE BARBERSHOP

Da-in and Seon-hui, do you want your hair done, too?

- What? - Do you want your hair done?

HESITANT

DA-IN HAD BEEN OBSERVING

BOSS PARK'S HAIRCUTTING SKILLS

Miss, please take your seat.

- Okay. One second. - Yes, please take your time.

DA-IN: CHILDREN'S HAIRCUT

Princess Da-in, are you ready to cut your hair?

Should I cut off 5 cm?

- Or 10 cm? - Or 10 cm?

Will you cut it into a bob?

- I want it a bit longer than a bob. - A bit longer?

About 7 to 8cm?

Okay, I get it. I'll see if I can...

I get to cut your hair at last.

- Finally. She's our VIP. - I agree.

- Da-in, do you have money to pay? - I do.

Put it on my tab.

Okay. You don't need to pay, Da-in.

- We won't take it. - Thank you.

The length right now...

THINKING CAREFULLY

HE'S BACK TO BEING THE THOUGHTFUL BOSS PARK

Look at the length right now.

It's this long.

SHOWING HER THE MIRROR

If you cut this much off...

CHECKING THE LENGTH SHE WANTS

- About... - It'll be this long.

- Okay. That will do. - Is that okay?

- Like this. - Da-in, you're a fifth grader.

- What? - Let's go for a big girl look.

I was a big girl by fourth grade...

They're back.

- Welcome back. - Hey.

- I'll park here. - No, please park over there.

Okay.

Jeez. Why is this so heavy?

- Oh, my. - Okay.

Almost there. We're good now.

- We have great news. - What is it?

- We got some corn. - Wow, corn.

EARNED CORN FOR HELPING OUT WHILE THEY WERE THERE

- We got paid for our labor. - Good work.

- I noticed something odd, BO GUM. - Yes?

I've been here for five hours, but it feels like five days.

THE VILLAGE BARBER WHERE TIME FLIES

- It's fascinating. - We'll be done in an hour.

Yes, it's so weird.

I'm exhausted.

He feels like he's been here for five days.

I keep craving something sweet.

THE EXHAUSTED PART-TIMER PICKED UP SOME SNACKS

CORN PUFFS

GROAN

HE SWORE HE WOULDN'T SNACK

BUT HE CHOMPS OUT OF THE BAG

At this point

I start to feel anxious when the phone rings

or when someone walks in.

- It's alarming. - Yes.

- I think, "What could it be?" - it's sudden.

You think, "Is something going on?"

HAGGARD

BUSY SNACKING

SNIFFLE

PART-TIMER'S STATE OF MIND: AWAY FOR A MOMENT

I'll cut it right off for you.

BUT WAIT, A HAIR CLIPPER?

- A hair clipper? - A hair clipper...

I'll use a hair clipper.

WHY DID HE PICK UP A HAIR CLIPPER FOR A WOMEN'S CUT?

FOR BOBBED HAIR

THE FIRST TOOL YOU NEED IN TRIMMING

A HAIR CLIPPER

REASON: IT CREATES THE 1ST GUIDELINE

BEFORE USING SCISSORS TO TRIM AND ADD DETAILS

- It's kind of scary. - No, you'll be fine with me.

Don't be scared.

I've never had my hair cut with a hair clipper before.

- No, right? - I've only used scissors.

HE REASSURES HER

AND BRAVELY BEGINS TO CUT WITH A HAIR CLIPPER

WILL BO GUM

BE ABLE TO CUT HER HAIR WITH A HAIR CLIPPER SUCCESSFULLY?

TREMBLING WITH NERVES

NERVOUS

THE CUT BEGINS

CAUTIOUS

MAKING SURE THE LINE STAYS STEADY

AS HE CUTS A HANDFUL AT A TIME

VERY NEAT

BOSS PARK CHECKS ON DA-IN AS SOON AS HE'S DONE

- Isn't it cool? - It's kind of scary.

- It's nothing to be scared of. - I've never cut my hair with this.

- Am I the first? - Yes.

Only my mom had cut my hair to this day.

- Really? - My mom.

I've never been to a salon in my life.

- Never? - My mom always cut my hair for me.

Oh, really?

HER FIRST TIME LETTING SOMEONE ELSE CUT HER HAIR

GRABBING

LOOK

- I cut off this much right now. - Really?

UNCLE BO GUM SHOWS HER EVERYTHING TO EASE HER FIRST EXPERIENCE

You cut off a lot, Da-in.

Will you look to your right?

STARTING WITH THE 1ST CUT ON THE SIDE

NERVOUS AND FROZEN

Yes, keep looking that way.

MATCHING THE LENGTH IN THE BACK

AND CUTTING WITHOUT HESITATION

Now, can you look to your left?

Thanks.

DOES NOT HESITATE

TO CHOP OFF

SHE ALREADY LOOKS QUITE DIFFERENT AFTER THE 1ST CUT

Why do I feel like I've turned into my sister?

I look like my sister.

- Do you not like it? - It's not that.

No, it's just the same length as my sister's.

But it looks good on you.

It goes so well with your smart image.

NEXT, SECTIONING THE HAIR TO START WORKING WITH SCISSORS

ROLLING UP ONE HANDFUL EACH

PARTING INTO DIFFERENT SECTIONS

What do you think about this style with the hairpins?

This style?

DONG-YEON'S JOKE RELAXES HER

What is that?

Do you want to see something magical?

- Sure. - Now, what is this?

- A tissue paper. - It's a tissue paper.

- Yes. - I will

use this tissue paper

to turn it into a tissue paper snail.

- A snail? - Look.

TRYING NOT TO LAUGH

I've never seen this, either.

A TISSUE SNAIL TRICK FROM AN UNINVITED MAGICIAN

- But Da-in probably won't... - She won't be fooled.

Her cognitive ability is much higher than most adults.

- She's smart. - You'll make a snail?

I'll make a snail model.

A model.

CHOMPING ON CORN PUFFS INSTEAD OF POPCORN

FIDDLING

Look, a snail.

TITLE: TISSUE SNAIL

GIGGLING

All I can do is smile.

It really looks like a snail.

LAUGHING

You sound more mature than me.

THE KIND AUDIENCE WHO REACTS NICELY

- So here's the snail. - Okay.

When you sprinkle salt on a snail

I hear it disappears.

- I've never actually seen it. - Okay.

Anyway, so I will

sprinkle some magic salt on this.

THE MAGIC OF MAKING A SNAIL'S BODY VANISH

- Okay? Now, I'll hold the snail. - Okay.

I'm holding the head like this.

And now...

HIS RIGHT HAND MOVES IN SECRET

You ripped it out.

- Rip what? - You just ripped it in half.

- I'm sprinkling some magic salt. - I think you just ripped it in half.

And then, I'll rip the head off.

TA-DA

BLOWING

But you just ripped it in half.

Da-in.

You're quite right.

LAUGHING

You're right.

How are you so quick to catch on to things?

You obviously ripped it in half with your hand.

This is why it's hard to babysit kids.

FOR SURE

Now, let me start working on the sides.

WILL THE BOB TURN OUT THE WAY DA-IN WANTS?

STARTING DETAILED CUT WITH SCISSORS ALONG THE 1ST GUIDELINE

FOCUSED

HIS SCISSOR WORK BECAME MUCH MORE PRECISE

CROSS-CHECKING THE LENGTH ON BOTH SIDES

It's longer on this side.

You'll truly become a fifth grader now, Da-in.

- Okay. - Are you ready?

What? Sure.

- You're the face of the school. - What?

You're the face of Muju Elementary School.

You're now the true master of Muju Elementary School

as someone who is soon moving up to sixth grade.

THE PLAYFUL UNCLE'S RANDOM THOUGHTS

- Okay? - Sure.

- Take responsibility for the school. - What?

She has take responsibility?

Can't I just leave it up to the principal and vice-principal?

CHUCKLING

I'll feel the most at ease that way.

You are definitely clever.

- Can you wash her hair? - Yes, of course.

Let me do that.

SANG-YI VOLUNTEERS TO DO THE SHAMPOO

Ma'am, this way, please.

Thanks. Did I cut off too much? What do you think?

- It's good. I like it. - You look great.

- Let's get you washed up. - That way, please.

It's pretty.

Do you mean Da-in? She's pretty.

AMAZED

MEANWHILE, DONG-YEON QUICKLY BEGINS TO CLEAN UP TO GO HOME SOON

GETS UP

THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER GRABS A BROOM

SWEEPING

Thank you.

Hey, don't mention it.

- Isn't it fun to spend time with us? - Yes, of course.

This must be a great occasion for the villagers here.

It must be so nice to have you here and do this. It makes me happy.

You can relax, ma'am.

You're our VIP customer.

FEELING AWKWARD

Da-in, for today

- I didn't make layers on purpose. - Okay.

I just cut it in a straight line.

So go home, take a look and see if you want some layers.

Then come again tomorrow to do your homework.

Okay, but I like my hair when it's cut in a straight line.

You do? I'm glad.

WHILE BO GUM AND SANG-YI ARE BUSY TENDING AFTER THE VIP

THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER

GETS READY TO MOP THE FLOOR

HITTING EVERY CORNER THOROUGHLY

THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER QUICKLY LOOKS FOR CHORES ON HIS OWN

CLEANS THE KITCHEN TOO

SURPRISED

- Thank you! - Yes?

It's been so long since we mopped the floor.

RAIN, thank you so much.

Thank you so much.

SPICK-AND-SPAN

ALMOST DONE WASHING DA-IN'S HAIR

Da-in, let me show you my craziest move.

- What is it? - Close your eyes.

FLAPPING

THE OLD-FASHIONED TECHNIQUE OF DRYING HAIR

HOW CUTE

- That's my best move. - It is?

SHAKING OFF MOST OF THE WATER

You can blow-dry her hair now, right?

- Yes, please come back. - Let me escort you back.

Please sit here.

Her back is a little wet.

HER BACK GOT WET WHILE HE WASHED HER HAIR

The water must've leaked. Your back is a little wet.

I'm sorry.

It's all right, I think.

- It'll dry soon enough. - It's fine.

I thought you might feel a bit dry.

- My back feels kind of wet. - What?

Does your back feel wet?

- It was too hot in here. - I thought you might be hot.

- Just in case you were feeling hot. - Yes, sure. It was hot.

She's so witty with words.

QUICKLY BLOW-DRYING HER HAIR ALONG WITH HER BACK

Allow me

- to dry your clothes. - Okay.

SOFT WARM AIR

- Let me know if it's too hot. - Okay.

BLOW-DRYING HER HAIR AS WELL

CAREFUL

FOCUSED

- Does it hurt? - No, it doesn't.

CONTINUES TO CHECK ON HER

- Let me know if it's too hot. - Okay.

Hey, Da-in.

- I know this is random. - Yes?

You may be an elementary school student

yet you

don't really care about what others think

but always manage to think and speak for yourself.

And I think that's cool.

Pardon?

It may sound random.

He's trying to say that it's cool that you can think for yourself

- and voice your opinions. - It's a good thing.

You know how to voice your opinion exactly the way you want to.

That's a really cool thing, Da-in.

- May I ask you for a favor? - Sure.

Can you grab

a white-colored pouch from my bag?

- Your bag? - Yes.

SHE SUDDENLY WANTS HER POUCH

GLANCES

The white one?

WHISPERING NODDING

It's in the bag. Yes, that's it.

- This one? Okay. - Yes, may I have it?

THIS ONE, MA'AM?

- Do you have something in here? - Yes.

USING HER TINY HANDS

Did you suddenly think of something?

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING

Yes, a present.

Yes, a present.

Oh, wow!

- What is this? - I made it.

- You did? - Yes.

SHE MADE IT ALL BY HERSELF FOR THE UNCLES

A ONE-OF-A-KIND PRESENT MADE BY DA-IN

- I have something. - What is that?

- I made it. Isn't it nice? - Really? Thank you.

I made the bracelets myself.

This is awesome, Da-in.

This is great. Thank you so much.

It's so nicely made.

- What is this? - I made it.

- She made it! - Is it a bracelet?

- Yes. - My goodness. Thank you.

A present from Da-in.

UNCLE BO GUM, UNCLE SANG-YI, UNCLE DONG-YEON

Isn't she so skillful?

- How did she make these? - I know, right?

BRACELETS AND BOOKMARKS

She put our names on them and gave them to us.

Isn't it touching?

TOUCHED

Thank you so much, Da-in.

Hey, you...

FEELING SHY

How did you come up with the idea to make these?

AN UNEXPECTED YET HEARTFELT GIFT FROM DA-IN

I feel really weird right now.

SANG-YI IS NOW DEEP IN THOUGHT AS HE STARES AT THE PRESENT

How can I put this?

I'm an affectionate guy

but when I'm out here, I try not to get too attached.

But at times, when I feel

someone's pure and genuine sincerity and affection

It hits me in the most peculiar way.

When Da-in handed me the present shyly

saying, "I made yours too"

I choked up. Something hit me.

I felt really complicated.

HE STARED AT IT FOR A LONG TIME AND FIDDLED WITH IT

Goodness, Da-in.

How do I relay all my feelings back to you?

Thank you so much.

- Is it too small? - No, it fits perfectly.

It fits perfectly.

I don't know how to express everything I'm feeling.

FEELING SHY

It's so pretty.

I'll make sure to wear it all the time.

It was so endearing, and I was very grateful.

HE CONTINUED TO KEEP DA-IN'S BRACELET ON

My gosh. Your hair looks so good, Da-in.

- I like it too. - You do?

- You like it? - Yes.

I'm so glad.

I'm so glad that you like it.

Thank you so much, Da-in.

MOVED FOR THE HUNDREDTH TIME

I see. You have to give volume all the way inside.

GIVING VOLUME ON THE INSIDE

You look great, Da-in!

- She says she loves it. - She does.

LOOKING LIKE A SMART AND STYLISH BIG GIRL

LOOKING THROUGH

Do you like any of these hairpins?

UNCLE BO GUM GIVES HER HAIRPINS AS A COMPLIMENTARY SERVICE

- The blue one. - The sky blue one?

- The sky blue one. - It's cute.

UNCLE BO GUM'S SPECIAL SERVICE JUST FOR DA-IN

A CLUMP OF BANGS

BRAIDING JUST THE BANGS

TO ADD A HINT OF CUTENESS

USING A HAIRPIN

TO SECURE IT IN PLACE

All done.

FEW TRICKS UP BOSS PARK'S SLEEVE

- Does it look okay? Look at me. - Yes.

- Is it too far in the back? - It's okay.

LOVES IT

Good work, Da-in.

- Thank you. - Okay. Good work.

Hey, Da-in. You look so good.

- Oh, wow. - Nice job.

Your hair looks so good, Da-in.

Let's take a picture.

HER FIRST HAIRCUT IS A BIG SUCCESS

REMEMBERING THIS UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT

One, two, three.

- Keep this picture forever. - What? Okay.

HOW WOULD YOU RATE UNCLE BO GUM'S CUT?

Ten points.

I like it.

ALL EARS

The service was nice. They were friendly and kind.

I liked it.

IN A NUTSHELL: A PLACE I WANT TO VISIT EVERY DAY

I had so much fun with RAIN here today.

I think I enjoyed work today.

We had a relaxing and fun day.

It must've been tough for BO GUM, who had to cut hair all day.

Well, I'm still not used to it.

But today, I felt confident.

FEELING PROUD

I felt like I've improved a little.

I also thought it was a nice cut.

SMUG

- Now, time to eat some meat. - Sounds great.

I want to grill them amazingly.

FULL OF PASSION

CHUCKLING

GRUNT

- We have to hurry. - RAIN.

- Let me help. - No, it's okay. But let's hurry.

We have to hurry.

Let's go.

- Let's go. We have to go. - Can you clean it up?

- Okay. - Okay.

- To the left. - Where?

I'LL GRILL THIS FOR YOU SOON

FIRST THE 1-TON TRUCK, NOW A 35-KG BEEF RIB

SURPRISED

I HAVE TO CAPTURE THIS

BOYS, IT'S ME, RAIN

CARRYING A 35-KG PIECE OF RIB TO FEED THE TRIO

I can see the roof.

- Watch your head. - Is this it?

GROAN

One second.

- I'll set it down here. - Okay.

GRUNT

Goodness. Great work.

AMAZED

Great job, RAIN.

DRAINED EVEN BEFORE THE BARBECUE BEGAN

But the meat looks delicious.

It looks great.

HE SUCCESSFULLY CARRIED THE RIB WITH A BIT OF EFFORT

- Where are we eating? - Here?

Should we just eat out here?

- It's not as cold anymore. - We just need a jacket.

QUICKLY SETTING THE TABLE

I got this.

We'll cook there, but I have to prep it first.

- You'll put on a show, right? - Yes.

A SHOW?

I have no idea what to do.

- BO GUM, just chill. - I have no idea.

You can take a break and do nothing.

But I want to give a hand.

- Chef RAIN. - Yes?

- Where should I put this? - There.

- You can order us around. - All right.

You just need to bring me a knife.

- I will start the fire. - Okay.

Can you hold it?

Don't let it fall.

BO GUM HELPS RAIN PREPARE THE MEAT

BEHOLD

All done.

Gosh. Incredible.

RAIN PAID OUT OF HIS POCKET FOR THIS PIECE OF RIB

This is huge.

SOMETHING YOU ONLY SEE AT A BUTCHER'S SHOP

HE BEGINS TO PREP THE MEAT

Oh, my!

SLIDING

Hey.

Hey.

RUSHING OVER

- That would've been a disaster. - Be careful.

- It slipped. - My flesh!

The meat. Gosh.

That was close.

ANOTHER GUY IN SHOCK

FROZEN

CHECKS THE MEAT FOR ANY DAMAGE

NO PROBLEM

HE CAUTIOUSLY BEGINS TO DEBONE THE MEAT

- Is it okay to put this here? - The deboning show.

SPECTATORS SWARM AROUND

HIGH EXPECTATIONS

This is unbelievably huge.

SKILLFULLY CUTTING ALONG THE BONES

RAIN just came here

with a chunk of ribcage.

Do I need to cut this little by little?

UNSURE

It's not cutting through.

TURNS IT OVER IN AN ATTEMPT TO CHOP IT INTO PIECES

- Be careful. - Okay.

SLICING WITH BOTH HANDS

STILL NOT CUTTING THROUGH

I have to work on it little by little.

No, it still won't cut through.

DABS THE KNIFE WITH FORCE BUT FAILS

WHAT DO WE DO?

NO WORRIES, IT'S ME

HE SETS THE KNIFE DOWN

PUSHING BACK

WHAT HE COULDN'T DO WITH A KNIFE HE USES HIS OWN STRENGTH

LASTLY, HE TRIMS THE EDGES WITH THE KNIFE

SUCCESSFULLY SEPARATES A PIECE OF RIB

SEPARATING THE REST SOLELY WITH HIS STRENGTH

CLENCHING HIS TEETH AND EXERTING FULL FORCE

All done.

THE RIBS HE PASSIONATELY SEPARATED

- Stay still. - Okay.

- I'm completely still. - Good.

DEBONING THE RIB MEAT

Wow, your hands.

This is a lot.

This should be enough.

FLAMING

- Feeling it? - Feeling it?

The fire doesn't look so bad.

- Are we doing it right away? - Yes.

FILLED WITH ANTICIPATION

CHOPPING RIB MEAT INTO CUBES?

It looks so good.

- It's cubed beef. - Yes.

GULP

CHOPPING THE FAT OUT

AND HE PUTS THE MEAT INTO A FRYING BASKET?

It looks so good.

I bet it's delicious even when it's raw.

THE BASKET GOES STRAIGHT ON THE GRILL!

SEASONING WITH SALT OVER THE GRILL

My gosh.

This is insane.

WHITE SALT GRAINS ON THE MEAT

THE DEBONED RIBS GO ON THE GRILL TOO

HEARTY AMOUNT OF MEAT ON THE GRILL

- I'll shake it from time to time. - Okay.

SHAKING?

HE CHURNS THE BASKET AROUND TO GRILL THE MEAT COMPLETELY

Next, a whip of smoky flavor.

Gosh, RAIN.

COATING WITH SMOKY CHARCOAL FLAVOR

He makes the food look good.

THIS IS HOW YOU COOK BEEF

Look at the fat draining.

Stop it.

GLISTENING

I suddenly became famished after seeing this.

It's almost ready.

Let's gnaw on one rib each.

Let's grab it with our hands.

- Shouldn't we eat this now? - Yes, it's ready.

- Come and eat! - BO GUM, come and eat!

- Hey! - It's an emergency!

It's an emergency!

BO GUM, it's now!

WHAT'S GOING ON?

- It's an emergency! - Hey, wait.

- One second. - Let me try it.

ADDING ANOTHER LAYER OF SMOKY FLAVOR

- There are only three ribs. - All done. Try one.

One moment.

- It's here. - Try it.

- It's now. - It's now?

BO GUM, it's now!

Otherwise, it'll become tougher.

RAIN, open up.

- Hey, Dong-yeon. Open up. - Gosh.

- Open up. - Gosh.

It's perfect right now. Hey, BO GUM.

Come here.

IT'S SO GOOD

BO GUM ALSO COMES OUT IN A HURRY

SCANNING THE TABLE

- Guys, eat up. I came to grill this. - Okay.

- Is this right? - Yes.

HE SUDDENLY RUNS SOMEWHERE AFTER GIVING AN ANSWER

BO GUM should try this. Where did he go?

MEANWHILE, THE RIBS SLOWLY TURN INTO A DELICIOUS COLOR

COOKING BOTH SIDES

- No, wait. No! - Come quickly!

- No, wait. No! - Come quickly!

COOKING BOTH SIDES

- No, wait. No! - Come quickly!

- No, wait. No! - Come quickly!

- What's wrong? No! - Hey, can you wash this?

- Let's wash it. - Give it to me.

- Darn it. I'm sorry. - Take this.

TAKES THE ROUNDABOUT WAY TO THE KITCHEN

- Meat that fed on grass. - It won't kill us.

IN A HURRY

QUICKLY RESUSCITATING THE MEAT

WE CAN STILL EAT THIS

THOROUGHLY

IT LOOKS GOOD ENOUGH!

Hey, thanks so much.

HANDS OVER THE RESUSCITATED MEAT

BACK ON THE GRILL

- Join me one at a time. - Eat up, guys.

Where's BO GUM?

BO GUM IS COMING WITH A CHAIR

You can sit here.

THOUGHTFUL

Did you eat some?

HE BROUGHT A CHAIR TO MAKE THE DINING EXPERIENCE EASIER

You have to try it now.

- Okay. - Otherwise, it'll be a crime.

This is amazing.

HE FINALLY TRIES THE CUBED BEEF

It's really good.

NOW, TIME TO WORK ON THE RIBS

HE TURNS EACH ONE OVER

THE MEAT IS SLICED EASILY

CUTTING THE MEAT INTO BITE SIZES

- Do you have your glove on? - I do.

We're ready to gnaw on the ribs.

HEART POUNDING

Here.

THE RIB IS HANDED TO THE ONE WHO CAME PREPARED

Oh, my goodness.

- Here. - We should make a toast with this.

- Thank you. - Hold it from underneath.

That's awesome.

Careful.

- Careful, the bottom. - Where do I grab?

- It's a little hot. - Thanks.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Brotherhood oath.

- Thank you so much for this. - The meat brotherhood.

Two, three.

- Thank you. - Thank you!

- Help yourselves. - Thank you.

STRAIGHT INTO HIS MOUTH

EXCLAIMING

A WILD, PRIMAL RIB-EATING SHOW

I feel like a bandit.

Eat up.

HE OPENS WIDE AND TAKES A HUGE BITE

SLURPING

SATISFIED

OVER HERE, HE'S DEVOURING THE RIBS

EXCLAIMING

HE EXCLAIMS AT EVERY SINGLE BITE

EXCLAIMING

This is insane.

YOU'RE EATING WELL

- You should have a bite. - What? No.

You guys eat.

YOU GUYS EAT UP

THANK YOU, RAIN

BIG BITE

THE FLAVOR OF THESE RIBS IS IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP

HE TILTS HIS HEAD TO GNAW AWAY

Do you want more salt?

- Salt. No? - No.

IT'S PERFECT AS IT IS

I've never eaten a rib like this.

This is my first time holding the bone while eating it.

- RAIN. - Yes?

I don't need your autograph on my T-shirt.

Got it.

This beef is enough for me.

HE'S ALREADY COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH THE RIBS

PLEASED

THEIR RIB-EATING SHOW CONTINUES

I MUST TAKE PHOTOS

CHEWING

BO GUM, you look too boyish right now.

Give me a bandit look.

ASKING HIM TO ACT LIKE A BANDIT

HE PUTS ON A FIERCE LOOK

A BOYISH BANDIT

SATISFIED

LAUGHING

Just like that!

THERE'S THE PERFECT BANDIT

A BANDIT WITH A BIG APPETITE

THE MEAT PARTY ISN'T OVER YET

This is insane.

PUTTING SKIRT STEAK INTO BEEF FAT

SIZZLING

THE JUICES ARE SEALED IN BY THE OIL

Just a second. Yes, let's flip it.

EVERYONE IS AMAZED

CRISPY ON THE OUTSIDE

AFTER SEARING IT IN OIL FIRST

HE PUTS IT ON THE GRILL TO ADD THAT SMOKY FLAVOR

TRY THIS MEAT AS WELL

This is a different cut.

- I'll cut it up for you. - Which cut is it?

It's skirt steak.

BEAUTIFULLY BROWNED SKIRT STEAK

It's cooked perfectly along the grain, right?

CRISPY OUTSIDE BUT JUICY INSIDE

That's crazy.

- What do I do? - And then...

- I could just eat it as is. - Put one on top.

Oh, my gosh.

PICK ONE UP AND TOP IT WITH WILD LETTUCE KIMCHI

AND TAKE ONE GIANT BITE

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT

- Do I eat it whole like that? - Yes, the texture's better that way.

HE EATS IT WHOLE IN ONE BITE AS RAIN SAYS

Today is seriously...

IT'S THE DAY THE TRIO GETS SPOILED

HAPPY

It's still good.

FEELING PROUD

Where did you learn all this?

No, we've always cooked and eaten like this.

- It's seriously good. - Do you like it?

- Thank you so much. - Don't mention it.

Tell me if you want more meat.

- Okay. - I'm fine.

HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO STOP EATING?

LOOKING AROUND

- Do you also have ramyeon? - Yes.

- We've got everything. - Do you want it?

Want me to cook it?

A FULL COURSE WHICH INCLUDES RAMYEON

It's all beef fat, so it's fine.

COOKING RAMYEON IN THE VERY POT THE MEAT WAS GRILLED IN

I didn't know you liked cooking and were good at it.

There's nothing good about this. You just throw it in.

HE EVEN TOSSES IN KIMCHI THAT BO GUM CHOPPED

EYES LOCKED IN

Good idea, Dong-yeon.

- I'll put in a couple of cloves. - Perfect.

DONG-YEON INSTINCTIVELY MINCES GARLIC

MINCED GARLIC GOES INTO THE RAMYEON

STIR THE NOODLES AROUND A LITTLE

- That looks insane. - It suddenly became a masterpiece.

I'll move it over there.

IS HE MOVING IT INTO ANOTHER BOWL?

- Come here. - We can do this, right?

- This is okay, right? - Are you moving it there?

- Why don't you move the whole pot? - Let's set it down.

- I'm scared. - I should take it like this.

- Yes. - Yes, put it on top.

- Like this? - On top of this.

- Is this better? - Take the bottom one out.

- I'm putting it on. - Perfect.

- That's good. - It's stable.

- Let's eat up. - Seriously, this is...

- You really have to eat now. - Yes, let's eat.

- It looks insane. - It smells delicious.

TIME FOR RAMYEON

Amazing. This is pretty salty.

THE NOODLES DISAPPEAR IN ONE SLURP

THIS IS A BIT COLD

EXCLAIMING

The ramyeon is a masterpiece.

- The heat needs to be high. - Indeed.

AFTER FEEDING THE TRIO MEAT, HE FINALLY TAKES A BITE OF RAMYEON

WHAT IS THIS?

Good, right?

IT'S A WORK OF ART, ISN'T IT?

- This is cooked well. - It's insane, right?

This is awesome.

HE SLURPS THE NOODLES NON-STOP

NOW, THIS IS HAPPINESS

I forced myself to stop because I felt like I should quit eating.

BO GUM EVEN MIXES IN RICE

I'm about to lose my mind.

ONE BITE OF MEAT FIRST

THEN SLURPS THE RAMYEON IMMEDIATELY

I wasn't going to eat any.

I'll get you new ones.

HE CAN'T STOP HIS CHOPSTICKS AFTER TASTING IT

I've never eaten ramyeon cooked in a pot like this.

Same, it's my first time eating tray ramyeon.

- Seriously? - Yes.

BO GUM probably

never got to do it because he was always busy.

- I don't think I've gone camping. - Really?

That was an absolute piece of art.

A HAPPY TIME SPENT WITH PEOPLE THEY CARE ABOUT

It would be a shame to waste...

Should I prep some of what's left?

PREPPING THE LEFTOVER MEAT FOR THE TRIO

I'm going home, anyway.

- We laid out a blanket. - No.

I'm honestly so happy that I got to cook for you.

I had such a great time being with you.

RAIN?

Shouldn't you wash up and go to bed now?

Already?

Wash up and lie down. It's time for bed. Tomorrow...

- It's our day off tomorrow. - Right?

- Tonight's a party. - Is that right?

ANYWAY, THEY DECIDE TO PREP AND STORE THE LEFTOVER MEAT

Let's head in now

- and clean up. - Okay.

TIME FOR THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER TO HEAD HOME

Thank you so much for the amazing meal.

- It was nothing. - Thank you so much.

THE TRIO REALLY FEASTED TODAY

- I had so much fun today. - So did we.

You know what's weird, though?

I think I'm going to miss those ladies from today.

I know.

- Da-in, Ji-hui, and Seon-hui too. - Seon-hui.

- And their grandma. - Take good care of them for me.

- Yes. - They looked so bored earlier.

Seriously, thanks so much.

Get inside.

- Get home safe. - Bye.

- Thank you for coming. - Sure.

- See you. - Sleep tight.

- Thank you. - Bye.

- Watch your head. - Okay.

RAIN HEADS OFF AFTER WORKING LIKE A ONE-PERSON ARMY

- He's... - Wait.

- Bye, thank you. - See you!

SAYING GOODBYE OVER AND OVER AGAIN RELUCTANT TO PART

Bye, guys.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

THANKS TO RAIN, IT WAS SUCH A FUN DAY

THE PASSIONATE PART-TIMER RAIN HAS FINALLY LEFT

10:00 P.M.

BO GUM PULLS OUT A NOTEBOOK

PLOPS DOWN

HE STARTS WRITING SOMETHING

THINKING

DEEP IN THOUGHT

WHAT COULD HE BE WRITING?

A CUT FOR MR. KWON HYEON-SEOK

HE'S ACTUALLY BEEN WRITING A SALES LOG EVERY SINGLE DAY

RECALLING THE PEOPLE HE MET EACH DAY

HE HAD BEEN RECORDING EACH DAY AS IT HAPPENED

A DAY OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

AND TOMORROW IS A DAY FOR REGROUPING

Are you writing in the log?

Yes.

PLEASED FOR SOME REASON

I think I did a really good job on everyone's hair today.

Yes, they all turned out great.

The guy's hair looked really good.

Hyeon-seok.

Come on.

And Da-in's hair was pretty.

Her hair looked so nice.

THE BRACELET DA-IN GAVE HIM

I'm so thankful.

SOFT SMILE

Whether it's Da-in, Seon-hui, or Ji-hui

ten years from now

if I run into them somewhere or if I come back to Muju...

I want to see how they've changed.

I'm really curious what they'll be like

in high school or in college

and how capable they'll be when they start working.

THE PEOPLE THEY MET HERE HAVE ALREADY BECOME PRECIOUS

REPLAYING THE MEMORIES, THE NIGHT SLOWLY GROWS DEEPER

THE NEXT DAY

THE FIRST AND LAST DAY OFF FOR THE VILLAGE BARBER

5:00 A.M.

THE VILLAGE

AND THE BARBERSHOP

ARE BOTH QUIET

TURNING ON

SOMEONE'S AT THE BARBERSHOP ON THEIR DAY OFF

HE HEADS INTO THE KITCHEN

AND PREPS INGREDIENTS

THE ONE COOKING AT DAWN

ON THEIR DAY OFF IS

BO GUM

THE FILLING HE MADE IN ADVANCE

WHEN DID HE MAKE ALL THIS?

4 HOURS EARLIER AT 1:00 A.M.

WITH HIS IRON STAMINA, HE DIDN'T EVEN SLEEP MUCH

HE HAD MADE SANDWICH FILLINGS AHEAD OF TIME

SINCE IT WAS THEIR DAY OFF, HE STEPPED IN AS CHEF FOR DONG-YEON

BUT WHY SANDWICHES THIS EARLY ON A DAY OFF?

5:30 A.M.

SANG-YI AND DONG-YEON ARE ALSO UP EARLY

GOOD MORNING!

GOOD MORNING, SIR

YOU MAKING COFFEE?

Will it be cold? Are you wearing thermal underwear?

I don't think it'll be that cold.

But who knows? It's a mountain.

- The temperature isn't that low. - Really?

THE PRIDE OF MUJU

MOUNT DEOGYUSAN

ALTITUDE: 1,614M

THE FOURTH HIGHEST MOUNTAIN IN KOREA

ON THEIR PRECIOUS FIRST DAY OFF

THEY HEAD TO MOUNT DEOGYUSAN, MUJU'S LANDMARK

BUT THEN!

The longest and strongest cold wave of the season is expected.

WITH STRONG WINDS

AND HEAVY SNOW OVERNIGHT

WILL TODAY'S HIKE GO OKAY?

- Are you all ready? - I'm ready.

Since we're heading out, I'll turn this on.

- While we're gone... - The robot vacuum.

It would be nice to clean the house.

- I'm pressing it. - Yes.

THIS ROBOT VACUUM WILL WORK FOR THE TRIO ON THEIR DAY OFF

It says it will clean everything thoroughly through AI.

It'll go all over the place to clean everything

- so let's trust it and head out. - Let's go.

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

LET'S GO TO MOUNT DEOGYUSAN

The moon is still out.

I clipped my nails and tossed them, and now it's up there.

- Did you throw that nail? - Yes.

You should have asked me to cut it.

THE MOON SHAPED LIKE DONG-YEON'S NAIL IS STILL BRIGHT IN THE SKY

THEY WALK PAST THE BARBERSHOP

So nice and smooth, so smooth

Do you remember...

- Since we're - Yes?

not opening today, shouldn't we leave a note?

We'll leave the lights on.

"Come rest."

"We are

closed today."

- "Even if we're not here." - "Even if we're not here."

"Feel free to come in and relax."

THEY LEAVE A NOTE FOR ANY CUSTOMERS WHO MIGHT STOP BY

And then we'll leave the lights on.

- Anything else? - All good.

Let's turn this.

Mark it "Closed."

No, let's leave it at "open." This place is always open.

Let's just turn that one off.

Yes, let's do that.

Perfect.

CLOSED ON TUESDAYS WE'RE CLOSED TODAY

BUT FEEL FREE TO COME IN AND RELAX

THE SHOP IS LEFT WITH THE LIGHTS ON AND THE DOOR OPEN

THEIR WAY OF SAYING ANYONE IS WELCOME

Let's get out of here

Hey

To the mountain

Let's go!

OFF TO MOUNT DEOGYUSAN AT 6:30 A.M.

Let's go to Mount Deogyusan.

This kind of road always makes me feel good.

I made egg mayo sandwiches.

YUM

It's so good.

Isn't it a bit bland?

- No, it's perfectly seasoned. - That's a relief.

CHEF KWAK APPROVES

SANG-YI ALSO GETS A SANDWICH

- Thank you so much. - I just hope it tastes good.

When did you make these, though?

- In the morning. - So, that's why you went there.

- The bread... - You're seriously so thoughtful.

A BIG BITE

It's good.

It tastes healthy, right?

BO GUM'S EGG MAYO SANDWICHES ARE HEALTHY AND DELICIOUS

It was really good.

SANG-YI GETS PLEASANTLY DROWSY AFTER THE SANDWICH

It's our first day off.

- We are - Going on a

Trip

- That's... - I went along with it

but was that the right tune?

Was that what you were trying to do?

It's such an incredible view.

There's still snow up on the mountains.

MOUNT DEOGYUSAN STARTS COMING INTO VIEW

My gosh, let's hurry.

Hurry?

- It's so pretty. - It's still

- winter here. - What is this?

- What? - What?

This resort is so nice.

It feels like another country.

It would make a great filming site.

- Well, we are filming. - Oh, you're right.

That's why we're here.

LAUGHING

I have arrived.

- We're here! - We're here!

THE FOOT OF MOUNT DEOGYUSAN

Hold on.

The wind feels a little weird.

Are you wearing thermal underwear?

- No. - Me neither.

It's too chilly, though.

It's too cold. The wind is no joke.

- Do your gloves feel warm? - Yes.

IT FEELS LIKE MINUS 15 DEGREES

It's a ski resort!

This is probably my first time at a ski resort in 15 years.

THEIR FIRST OUTING AFTER A WHILE

THEY FORGET ABOUT THE COLD AND GET EXCITED

It looks so fun.

Can we look at the sign for a second?

Just a second?

TODAY'S HIKING ROUTE

GONDOLA STATION

We take the gondola here.

We're going to Sangjeru Pavilion, then Seolcheonbong Peak.

It's a little farther up from there.

JUNGBONG PEAK, 1,594M, 1.6KM AWAY

I can't remember the last time I rode a gondola.

I'm so excited.

I can't believe I'm on Mount Deogyusan.

It's moving.

We have to get on it. It's moving, guys.

TAKING A SELFIE AS HE'S EXCITED ON THE WAY TO THE GONDOLA

Hop in.

- You first. - Okay.

- You first. - I'll go first.

THRILLED

- Ouch, that hurts. - What?

- Are you okay? - That hurts.

That hurts so bad.

HIT HIS HEAD ON THE GONDOLA

- Are you okay? - Yes.

There's no seatbelt, right?

No, and my butt is really cold.

ONE HOUR LATER

I feel like we're stranded.

SCREAMING

My legs are sinking!

WIND AND SNOWSTORM ATTACK

Watch out, guys!

Grab this as you climb up!

I'm okay.

Sang-yi!

Help us.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THEM?

Please save us.

- It's going higher than I expected. - I know, right?

None of the snow melted up here.

- It's beautiful. - Right?

We're actually on a trip.

This place is incredible.

I think we're almost there.

Let's get ready to get off.

TIME TO FINALLY SEE THE SNOWY SCENERY UP CLOSE

EXCLAIMING

Everything's frozen.

ONCE THEY STEP OUT OF THE GONDOLA STATION

THE ROOF IS FROZEN

AND SO ARE THE SIGNS

THEY ARRIVE AT SEOLCHEONBONG PEAK WHERE THEY CAN'T SEE A THING

ON A CLEAR DAY, SEOLCHEONBONG PEAK LOOKS LIKE THIS

AN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE

BUT NOW, THEY CAN'T SEE A FOOT AHEAD

Unbelievable.

CAN WE REALLY HIKE?

- This feels so good, though. - Yes.

RUSHING

SANG-YI IS RUNNING

HE SPRINTS AHEAD LIKE A PUPPY STEPPING ON SNOW FOR THE FIRST TIME

Wait...

Calm down.

SANG-YI RUNS OFF

EXCITED

Wait...

My legs are sinking!

SINKING

Hold on.

INHALING SHARPLY

It's too cold.

What do I do?

Hang on.

IT FEELS LIKE MINUS 15 DEGREES HERE GUMDONGYI'S LOCATION

This is no joke.

- I've never been in this thick snow. - Me neither.

Isn't this something you'd see

- in Northern Europe? - I agree.

IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THIS IS A MOUNTAIN IN KOREA

I might get blown away.

I need to put my hood on.

THE COLD HITS BEFORE THE HIKE HAS EVEN STARTED

THEY BUNDLE UP TIGHT WITH THEIR HOODS

- All right. - Let's go.

THEY OFFICIALLY BEGIN THEIR HIKE

THEY'RE MET WITH BRUTAL WIND FROM THE VERY START

It's steep.

AND A STEEP PATH COVERED IN SNOW

It's steeper than I thought.

THEY BOLDLY CAME HIKING AS A TEAM BONDING TRIP ON A DAY OFF

THEY CLIMB

AND CLIMB UP THE STAIRS

PANTING

AN EARLY-MORNING CLIMB AFTER WORK THE DAY BEFORE

THEY'RE SUDDENLY DRAINED

THE WIND ONLY GETS STRONGER

THEIR FIRST BREAK IS MUCH HARSHER THAN EXPECTED

SUFFERING ON THEIR PRECIOUS DAY OFF

THE ICY WIND CUTS STRAIGHT TO THE BONE

My nostrils are already frozen.

Seriously, my nostrils...

- My face is freezing. - I know.

Hold on.

- My mouth is freezing. - Right?

My nose and mouth are both frozen.

EVEN THE STAIRS AND HANDRAILS ARE FROZEN IN THIS BRUTAL COLD

More than anything right now

I'm craving a cup of hot cocoa.

Let's get some.

Let's get hot cocoa, Dong-yeon.

BREATHING HEAVILY

- Do you want hot cocoa? - Yes.

Just one cup.

WHILE THE TRIO BATTLES THE COLD

AT THE SAME TIME

THE BARBERSHOP THEY LEFT BEHIND WITHOUT AN OWNER

IS WRAPPED IN WARM SUNSHINE

THE SUNLIGHT FEELS ESPECIALLY WARM AT THE SHOP TODAY

WILL PEOPLE COME BY ON A DAY OFF, JUST AS GUMDONGYI HOPED?

THE BARBERSHOP YARD IS QUIET AND PEACEFUL

CUSTOMERS?

Haircuts are 5,000 won.

Looks like they're closed today.

"Today is our day off.

Even if we're not here, feel free to come in and rest."

Let's head in.

We'll have a cup of coffee. It's cold out.

It's literally a reception room.

THEY SIT AROUND CHATTING

ANOTHER VISITOR TO THE BARBERSHOP IS

BUSY CHECKING HIS APPEARANCE

THE VILLAGE CHIEF

Cleaning never ends.

HE CLEANS THE BARBERSHOP FOR THE TRIO

MS. OU ALSO VISITS AND HELPS HERSELF TO SOME SNACKS

EACH VILLAGER SPENDS TIME AT THE SHOP IN THEIR OWN WAY

COFFEE IN ONE HAND, BREAD IN THE OTHER

It's warm.

Oh, it's warm.

SIPPING

THIS IS MS.OU'S PERSONAL CAFE

RELAXED

It's hot.

WHILE MS. OU ENJOYS HER COFFEE

GROANING

1 HOUR INTO THE FREEZING HIKE

PANTING

GROANING

BOSS PARK WITH IRON STAMINA IS JUST HAVING A BLAST

HUMMING

It's even more exciting and fun

because it's my first time climbing a snowy mountain.

SANG-YI PANTING

ONE, TWO

LED BY BOSS PARK, THEY PUSH TOWARD JUNGBONG PEAK

GRUNT

WHAT?

GRUNT

THE UPHILL TRAIL STRETCHES ON ENDLESSLY

AND THE EMPLOYEES' BREATHING GETS HEAVIER AND HEAVIER

Left foot.

Left foot.

MEANWHILE, BOSS PARK SHOWS NO SIGN OF TIRING

This place feels

like it has a little bit of different regions in it.

It kind of feels like New Zealand.

It feels amazing.

Into the unknown

EXCITEMENT LEVEL MAX

Hello.

THE EXHAUSTED EMPLOYEES AND THE OVEREXCITED BOSS

BOSS, WE'RE NOT IN THE MOOD TO SMILE

IS EVERYONE COMING OKAY?

- I'll take a picture for you. - I'm fine.

PANTING

- Are you keeping up, Dong-yeon? - Yes.

Cocoa.

I'M CLIMBING WHILE THINKING ONLY ABOUT HOT COCOA

HE TURNS AROUND AGAIN

EMPTY

SHOWS UP

ALL YOU CAN HEAR IS THEIR HEAVY BREATHING

IT'S STILL A LONELY HIKE THOUGH THEY'RE TOGETHER

WE'RE COMING, BOSS

BREATHING HEAVILY

Dong-yeon, put your hood on.

THE SNOWSTORM GROWS EVEN FIERCER

Hold up.

It got colder than earlier!

Watch out, guys!

THE WIND IS SO STRONG THAT IT'S HARD TO KEEP THEIR BALANCE

It's getting way too tough now.

AND BO GUM IS STILL CHEERFUL

Wait.

IT'S TOTAL CHAOS HERE

THE CLOSER THEY GET TO JUNGBONG PEAK, THE STRONGER THE WIND GETS

I see the summit up there.

I see the lookout platform.

Are we already here?

Man.

I made it here, all thanks to Dong-yeon and Sang-yi.

No, we made it here, thanks to you.

- Thanks. - Thank you.

I mean it.

IS SANG-YI KEEPING UP OKAY?

SQUEEZING OUT THE LAST OF HIS STRENGTH

THEY REACH JUNGBONG PEAK AFTER 1 HOUR AND 30 MINUTES

JUNGBONG PEAK, 1,594M

- My gosh, what even is this? - Oh, my.

WHAT KIND OF VIEW AWAITS THEM FROM JUNGBONG PEAK?

IMPRESSED

This is no joke.

What's wrong?

NOTHING BUT A WHITE BLUR OF BLOWING SNOW

THEY WOULD'VE SEEN THE RIDGELINE OF MOUNT DEOGYUSAN ON A CLEAR DAY

ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE

BUT INSTEAD

ALL THEY CAN SEE IS A WHITE WALL OF SNOW

Let's shout out.

In 1, 2, 3.

FORCED ENERGY

BOUNCING

Thanks for playing along.

SIGHING

Sang-yi.

Sang-yi, your hair.

Your hair...

Sang-yi!

HIS HAIR HAS TURNED WHITE AND GRAY

AND HIS EYES HAVE GONE BLANK

Sang-yi!

Wake up. We're almost there!

Are you going to give up now?

Are you going to quit and let it all go?

Go on first.

No, I won't go without you.

Open your eyes!

SANG-YI OPENS HIS EYES

Nail art.

I have to go and do nail art.

STILL PROFESSIONAL ON A DAY OFF

I have to go do nail art.

Ma'am!

I have to fix Ms. Ra's nails.

Should we eat a tangerine?

A tangerine?

HERE?

- Where is it? - I'll get it.

- Is it here? - Turn around.

I also brought green grapes.

Would that be too cold?

Yes, I'm not eating those.

Tangerines.

AWARD-WORTHY ACTING

Let me get a piece.

It's warm.

I don't need this.

- Are you okay? - You have to eat it.

Go ahead and eat it.

THEY DESPERATELY FILL THEIR HUNGRY STOMACHS

THE SNOWSTORM GETS WORSE

I'll let you have them.

It's so cold.

My jaw won't move.

PASSION FOR ACTING IS USELESS AGAINST A COLD TANGERINE

It's so cold.

But it's good.

SNIFFLING

Let's go now.

We have to head back down.

I've got nail art to do.

It's freezing.

A SUSPICIOUS MAN SUDDENLY APPEARS

YOU CAN TELL HE'S BIG EVEN FROM FAR AWAY

HE LOOKS AROUND LIKE HE'S NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE

THIS MYSTERIOUS MAN IS

YOON NAM-NO, THE FOODIE CHEF

I heard the three actors were working really hard.

So I came with one simple thought that I wanted to cook them a meal.

A TRAVELING CHEF WHO CAME FOR GUMDONGYI

AND CHEF KWAK'S COOKING MENTOR

JEONG-JA, THEIR NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR, COMES OUT OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER

- Are you going that way? - Pardon?

Hello, ma'am.

Do you know where the barbershop is?

Yes.

BO GUM's...

- It's a secret. - A secret?

- Don't tell anyone. - Okay.

Follow me.

It's right next to my house.

- That way. - That way?

NEXT-DOOR GUIDE JEONG-JA LEADS THE WAY

Since it's your first time here.

The air is fresh.

It is fresh.

THEY GET ALONG DESPITE THEIR FIRST ENCOUNTER

This is it.

- Here? - The actor's shop.

Oh, here it is, The Village Barber.

It looks nice. They did a great job with it.

It is nice.

Have you ever

- tried the snacks here? - Yes, bread.

- Fish-shaped buns. - And?

- Fish cakes. - Fish cakes?

And I tried that thing.

That thing?

- "That thing" means... - "That thing."

- What's "that thing"? - A Jeolla Province thing.

- Oh, there are people inside. - Goodness.

Oh, is this place a bit like...

- A reception room. Where are they? - Hello.

No one seems to be here.

- Come sit over here. - Sit over here.

- Come sit over here. - Sit over here.

- What? - He's a cute young man.

- Yes, he is. - He'll cook something nice.

- Yes. You and I both... - Hang on.

Are you single or are you married?

He's awfully handsome.

Me? I'm not married yet.

Looks like it. You look young like a child.

- I don't even have a girlfriend. - No girlfriend either?

Find someone. Take your pick out of the many out there.

PICK WHOM?

There are tons of funny people.

That was hilarious.

You remind me of my grandmother.

Oh, my. That would be a problem.

What do you think I do for a living, ma'am?

- Could you be a chef? - He's a chef.

- I can tell. You can cook. - You're plump and cute.

- I'm not a chef, ma'am. - You are.

- You are... - No.

My third son's son looks like this.

He makes great vegetable pancakes.

Yes. You're adorable.

- I didn't eat any. - You look like my grandson.

- You're sweet. - You know

I'm not popular with young people.

- Why not? - I'm popular with the elderly.

- We like cute folks. - Because I look like a plump pig.

- You don't look like a pig. - There are so many piggy people now.

- Because they eat well. - I'll get an apron.

My oldest grandson is a pig, too.

You know which one. He's fat and is working out to lose weight.

- He lost a bit. - My tummy's getting fatter.

Yours isn't that fat at all.

Plump people are cute.

- Plump people are cute? - Yes.

If you have a plump body

you have plump hands and fingers.

Anything made with such hands

- would be delicious. - You're right.

Are your plump hands the reason your food is good?

My food is disgustingly good.

- That's why. - Yes.

I had so much fun meeting you.

- It's good to have fun. - Yes.

I'll cook you something tasty.

I'm excited that someone like my grandson will cook for us.

FROM GUMDONGYI'S FAIRY GODMOTHER

TO A FAIRY GODMOTHER FOR THE LOCALS

HE BROUGHT AN INDUSTRIAL RICE COOKER

WHAT WILL HE BE COOKING?

Where's the cutting board?

SOMEONE APPEARS BEFORE HE EVEN STARTS

Hello, ma'am.

- Come over here. - Hello.

I'm a visiting chef from Seoul who came by to cook.

I see. Thank you.

Sit here and wait.

STARTING BY PREPPING A HUGE SLAB OF MEAT

COOKING IN EARNEST

Welcome.

YET ANOTHER LADY COMES IN

You got a pretty new vest.

- My daughter took me shopping. - Hello.

- Hello. - You haven't eaten, have you?

Hang on. Where are the handsome...

WHERE ARE THE HANDSOME YOUNG MEN?

There used to be three handsome guys.

- Yes. They're... - I'm the kitchen help.

I see they aren't here.

I think this chef is the most handsome.

Since you're here...

Since you're here, shall I make you gukbap?

I'd appreciate it if you'd serve me some.

You look like you'd be good at cooking.

My stomach isn't just any stomach.

It's a foodie bag.

- Oh, is it? - It cost a fortune to build up.

HE'S RIGHT

Your teeth aren't well, are they?

- Do you have trouble chewing? - It's fine.

- I'll make the meat tender. - These are my real teeth.

The meat should be tender.

- Make it tender. - Yes, tender.

Thank you.

- Mr. Cook will know what to do. - "Mr. Cook."

He's a cook, so I called him Mr. Cook.

- Call him a chef. - A shelf?

A GENEROUS SERVING OF PORK NECK AND SHOULDER

Is this too much?

COOKING EXTRA FOR THE UNEXPECTED GUESTS

ALMOST TOO HEAVY TO LIFT

DRIED KELP TO ADD FLAVOR

I want some country food.

WE DON'T SCRIMP ON GARLIC, RADISH, AND WHOLE PEPPERS

CHEF NAM-NO'S EASY-TO-MAKE SUYUK GUKBAP

COOKED FOR 2 HOURS SO IT'S EXTRA TENDER FOR THE ELDERLY!

IN CASE IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THE HUNGRY TRIO

HE QUICKLY PREPARES A CHICKEN DISH

We'll sell it, and my son-in-law will build his house there.

He said something about vegetables.

It's hard doing this all on my own.

- Young man. - Yes?

Can you make fish-shaped buns?

- Fish-shaped buns? - Yes.

That's...

- I'd like two of each. - Just a moment.

- I'll finish this first. - Okay.

Fish-shaped buns?

I've never made them before.

HE GOES OUTSIDE TO CHECK THE BUN ZONE

How does this work?

AN OMINOUS GUST OF WIND

TARP FLAPPING

STARTLED

Do I make them out here?

What's up with the wind?

It's picking up.

It's too windy out there.

- There's a mold, so it's fine. - I almost...

I almost got blown away.

You're too heavy to get blown away.

You're too heavy to get blown away.

You're too fat and heavy.

That's what I wanted to hear you say.

- Right? - Lock that up.

Lock it up?

The smell. It's making me hungry.

- This is our first time eating out. - It is.

- You're working hard, Boss PARK. - Thank you.

- Thank you, Chef Kwak. - Gosh.

All of us.

- To your good health. - Cheers.

Good job, everyone.

THEIR FIRST TEAM MEAL

STARTING OFF WITH SOME MAKGEOLLI

I can taste the strawberry.

THE EXHAUSTION OF THE HIKE MELTED AWAY

SANG-YI DRINKS THE BROTH INSTEAD OF THE ALCOHOL

Happy New Year, guys.

A BIG MOUTHFUL

STUFFING HIS MOUTH

IT'S TASTY

BOSS PARK USED TO EAT HURRIEDLY IN CASE A CUSTOMER CAME BY

NOW HE CAN RELAX AND TAKE HIS TIME

A SATISFACTORY MEAL

It's so good.

CHEF KWAK WHO WAS ALWAYS GETTING HIS HANDS WET IN THE KITCHEN

Isn't it incredible?

AND SANG-YI WHO WAS ALWAYS RUNNING AFTER CUSTOMERS

FOR ONCE, THEY CAN FOCUS ON THEIR FOOD!

Good job so far.

IT'S A SPECIAL DAY

A BUSINESS OWNER'S DAY OFF IS A PRECIOUS LUXURY

Are you licensed to drive large vehicles?

Large vehicles? No. Should I get the license?

If there is such an opportunity

and one of us were to get that license

we could travel nationwide.

- That would be fun. - Yes.

Let's go around and do magic.

That would be crazy.

We just have to change one word in our barbershop's name.

To The Village Car.

- I like that. The Village Car. - Right?

MAKING PLANS TO EXPAND OVER LUNCH

I'm pretty sure I can get the license to drive a bus.

If someone is able to...

- That license... - We need a makeup artist license.

Later on, we could do bridal makeup.

We can do everything.

We could go to a wedding and...

- Do their hair up. - And make bouquets.

I'm actually pretty interested in landscaping and stuff.

We're here to eat, yet we're brainstorming for ideas.

Let's get the drone license, too.

- I was looking into that. - Were you really?

We can go to island villages.

I'm licensed to steer small boats.

- That's right. - I can drive boats.

Let's go around on that.

I must get the hairdresser license first.

We work as a perfect team now.

We have perfect timing and teamwork.

Let's go to Fukuoka from Busan.

- Irasshaimase. - Irasshaimase.

You speak Japanese.

We're talking all sorts of nonsense.

It's because you two drank alcohol.

- We lost control. - It's strawberry-flavored.

- Let's drink. - Let's drink.

- You two drank alcohol. - Let's go, village barbers!

DAYDREAMING FOR A WHILE

WE'LL GO BACK TO WORKING HARD TOMORROW

Do you think anyone came by the barbershop?

I wonder.

- I smell something tasty. - Do you?

What tasty food are you making?

THE PORK IS NICELY BOILED

THE ELDERLY WILL ENJOY THE TENDER PORK NECK

NAM-NO TRIES THE FOOD

IT'S PERFECT

It can't be too big for them.

BITE-SIZED RADISH PIECES

- Do you want lots of green onions? - Yes.

Lots of green onions.

The more the better.

HE WANTS TO SERVE THEM ON TIME

RUSHING ABOUT TO SET THE TABLE

I haven't worked this hard in a while.

HE CAME ON THEIR DAY OFF AND WORKED BUSILY

You might lose all the weight

and become good-looking.

- It smells nice. - It took some work.

Let's hike the step and get in.

- Thank you. - Sure.

Thank you for cooking for us.

- Who's the second eldest? - Isn't this your kimchi?

- The second eldest. - It is, isn't it?

- The second eldest. - It's mine.

- You're the youngest? - We're the same age.

Are you? I see.

She looks younger, and I look older, right?

- Not at all. - Right?

It's not nice to be older.

- It's nice to be older. - It's not.

YOU SHOULD WATCH WHAT YOU SAY

Thank you for the food.

HOW DOES THE CHEF'S FOOD TASTE?

- It's good. - It's good, Chef.

- Is it good? - Have a bite. You did the cooking.

- It's really good. - Hang on.

- It's good. - See?

- It's good. - Who made it?

OUR CUTE CHEF MADE IT

It's tasty.

It's nice.

- It's nice to see you enjoy it. - I can't seem to find it.

My grandma...

I never got to cook for her when she was alive.

- Not even once. - We're eating it instead.

She knew I was into cooking.

- But I never cooked for her. - I see, and that bothers you.

- So... - You must be thinking of her.

- Will you be my grandma? - Of course, I will.

- Will you give me money if I visit? - You bet.

Offering food just once isn't enough.

We should show our appreciation. Have another.

Thank you.

Oh, it's so tasty.

It tastes good.

HE BECAME MUJU'S NEW GRANDSON

It's nicely cooked.

- It's nicely cooked. - It's lovely.

Gosh, it's cold.

What's that noise? What's going on?

It wasn't the sound of a passing car.

FISH-SHAPED BUNS

HOW ARE THEY MADE?

From what I've noticed, they put in the batter first.

- Batter first. - Yes.

Then the red bean goes in the middle.

HE STARTS OFF BY DOING WHAT SHE SAID

IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD CONSIDERING IT'S HIS FIRST TRY

MELODY RINGS OUT

Why? What's wrong?

What? What the heck do you want?

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS?

It's leaking out the side.

THE TIMER CAUSED SOME CHAOS

Do I flip it?

Does this go this way?

How does this work?

CONFUSED

- You need to wait. - We must wait?

Young people can get it in one try.

You've made a lot already.

- It's not hard. - We just need two rounds.

- But it's cold out here. - I bet, since you're wearing that.

- Oh, hot. - Use a spoon.

Poke them with this.

- There must be tongs. - It's over there.

There must be tongs.

To pick them up. That's it.

It's your first time, so you don't know how to do it.

Put that in there. Yes. And another.

I can do better after a few tries.

- Yes. - You would.

- Since you know how to cook. - Oh, thank you.

MAKING BUNS UNDER THEIR ENCOURAGEMENT

- Let's go now. - Yes.

Let's get going.

Thank you.

- Ma'am. I wish you good health. - Bye.

Look after yourself.

Thanks for the food.

THE FAIRY GODMOTHER WAITS FOR THE TRIO

THE TRIO HEAD HOME WITH NO IDEA THAT NAM-NO'S HERE

What kind of love this is

- It's a song about candy. - I don't think so.

WALKING OVER

DEEP SIGH

Oh, dear.

AS USUAL, HE SITS ON HIS FAVORITE COUCH

FEELING TIRED

I'll nap for a bit.

DONG-YEON GETS OUT SOME BEDDING TO LIE DOWN AS WELL

THE EXHAUSTING HIKE DRAINED THEM BOTH

WHILE THE DUO ENJOY THEIR DAY-OFF NAP

A DOOR OPENS

HIGH-STAMINA BO GUM TOOK A QUICK SHOWER

HE EVEN CHANGED INTO NEW CLOTHES

HE PLANS TO LOOK AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Da-in!

BO GUM SUDDENLY CALLS FOR DA-IN

Da... Is that you, Da-in?

Seon-hui!

HE THOUGHT HE HEARD THEIR VOICES

It's not them?

BO GUM WALKS AS IF HE'S DRAWN SOMEWHERE

I don't see them.

FOLLOWING THE SOUND

I can from here.

What are you doing? Let me join in.

Hello!

SEON-HUI AND DA-IN WERE PLAYING NEARBY

What are you doing? Let me join in.

Hello!

Hello, Uncle!

- What... - We're riding sleds.

I want in, too. How you do play?

IT'S JUST AN ORDINARY ICY ROAD

THEY'RE SLEDDING OUT HERE

- You're sliding on your books? - Yes.

We slide on books we don't read.

For real? Show me what you do.

- Hang on. - Hold tight.

That's not safe for Seon-hui.

Oh, dear. Like this?

SOMEONE HAS TO PULL

GIGGLING

GIGGLING

Instead of a book

you should ride something like that.

There's nothing we can ride on.

BO GUM WANTS TO FIND THEM SOMETHING ELSE THAT SLIDES BETTER

This is my dad's.

It's my dad's book.

- Did you get permission? - Yes.

- I got permission. - Of course.

I also stole a calendar from the trash.

No, I didn't steal it.

I asked my dad before taking it.

What should we slide on?

There should be something more fun.

We can slide on three layers or four.

Hey. There's a cardboard box.

HE HOPS OVER AND OBTAINS A NEW SLED

Try getting on here, Seon-hui.

Don't hold on. I'll push from behind.

Hang on.

BO GUM'S SLED IS NOW OPEN

Let's go.

PUSHING HARD

GROANING

GIGGLING

- Is it scary? - No.

BO GUM'S SLED GOES AT A VERY SAFE SPEED

CALM AND PEACEFUL

The track is too short.

It's short. We go back and forth three times.

DONG-YEON JOINS IN

HI!

PLAYING UNTIL THE SUN STARTED TO SET

I got scolded. I said I'd play for just one hour.

- I see. - We played for 90 minutes.

- Today... - It was our first time.

It was the first time we left home today.

- Get back safely, girls. - Bye.

- Take care. - Bye.

THEY SEND SEON-HUI AND DA-IN HOME

WAIT

THE FIRST THING THEY NOTICE

IS AN UNFAMILIAR BACK

It must be someone on the crew.

THE FILMING CREW?

HE DROPS HIS THINGS AS IF IN A TRANCE

TIPTOEING IN

I think it's someone on the crew.

THE CLUELESS FAIRY GODMOTHER IS DOING THE DISHES

- Master. - My gosh!

- Master. - My gosh!

What the... Oh, hello.

- Oh, hello. - Oh, my.

- Master! - Excuse me.

What brings you here!

What brings you here?

What brings you here!

- I heard... - What brings you here?

This place has a new boss.

Hello.

You actually scared me.

- The cameras... - This is my master!

- Nice to meet you. - Yes, hello.

- Hello. Nice to meet you. - Hello.

- I'm PARK BO GUM. - Hello.

It's a pleasure to meet you. Thanks for coming all this way.

Actually, today...

- It's your day off. - Yes.

I meant to sneak in, cook a meal, and leave.

- Yes. - But there was someone here.

- Oh, really? - "What's going on?"

- Random visitors? - Yes.

I made fish-shaped buns for the first ever time.

- You made buns, too? - Yes.

What kind of battle did you fight all alone?

- Were there many people? - They were waiting.

There were four people, and I was walking about looking for stuff.

I filmed Culinary Class Wars here on my own.

- Did you bring this big rice cooker? - Yes, I brought it.

That's awesome.

- Did you serve them food, then? - Yes. I made gukbap.

And you'll see there's a chicken dish there.

FEELING TOUCHED

Thank you so much.

You taught Chef Dong-yeon well.

"Chef Dong-yeon"?

- He's a chef to us. - You're the chef here?

I'm pretty popular over here.

CALL ME MUJU'S CHEF KWAK

This place...

It's hard... Why have you gotten so thin?

I missed you so much.

- He's in charge of every meal. - Oh, really?

He's a good cook.

He really is.

- You can sit down. - Yes. Sit and rest.

- Leave the dishes. - No.

- I didn't prepare much. - You look cool.

- Don't say that. - Isn't he cool?

My gosh.

Seeing you up close...

- Isn't he so good-looking? - Dong-yeon's much more handsome.

No, but honestly...

The charm and looks and all that combined.

A BLESSING TO YOUR SIGHT

SIGHING

- I feel deprived. - Don't.

At this moment, you're the most handsome.

The winner.

Let me wash my hands.

NAM-NO GETS READY TO COOK DINNER

This is insane. It's crazy.

THE BEST GIFT ON THEIR DAY-OFF

It's unbelievable.

The elderly who live here.

They had hearty appetites.

They actually consoled me.

QUICKLY PREPARING GUKBAP FOR THE TRIO

STARING

This meat...

You must be hungry. Aren't you hungry?

Aren't you hungry?

HIS MOUTH RESPONDS FIRST

Thank you.

- Is this pork neck or what? - Pork neck.

- You can tell right away. - It's tasty.

Gosh...

- It's so good with kimchi. - How can it be this good?

HEADING TO THE BARBERSHOP WHILE WHISTLING CLUELESSLY

You didn't take the fertilizer bags yet?

You didn't take the fertilizer bags yet?

TURNING TO LOOK

The bags... Oh, gosh.

What's this?

- It's Chef Yoon Nam-no. - I should've hidden.

- Sorry. This place has a new boss. - Hello.

I'm your new boss.

- Hello. Nice to meet you. - Hello.

- His hands are so cold. - Gosh.

FEELING PROUD

What is going on here?

It's crazy.

- I'm glad we didn't buy food. - Yes.

Why... How come...

- Do you need any help? - No.

Enjoying the food is the best you can do to help.

THEY'RE SENT AWAY FROM THE KITCHEN

Is it okay if we just sit here?

HOW FASCINATING

Will you be staying?

Should I stay?

Yes!

JUST HAPPY AT THE THOUGHT

- Can I just watch? - Of course.

NAM-NO'S NUMBER 1 PUPIL STAYS CLOSE

The smell already is just...

EARLIER TODAY

SEASONING WITH BLACK PEPPER POWDER

BOILED DOWN FISH SAUCE AND SUGAR

ADDED GROUND GARLIC

THE CHICKEN WAS LEFT TO MARINATE

POTATO STARCH TO COOK THE CHICKEN

What happens if you fry it in potato starch?

If you cook it like this

the chicken flavor becomes much stronger.

- Like the old-style fried chicken. - With thin batter?

Can you help me out?

Do you see the tray and wire netting?

- Dry that for me. - Okay.

STRAIGHT INTO THE OIL

When chefs look at the hot oil

can you tell how well the food's cooking?

Yes, almost.

OH, THEN...

HE SNEAKS OVER AND CHECKS THE TEMPERATURE

It's a bit too hot right now.

It's about 190, isn't it?

- My gosh. I got the chills. - Is it 190?

It is 190.

IT IS 191 DEGREES CELSIUS INDEED

THAT'S NOTHING

The cabbage is a really important part.

HE ADDS THE SUGAR AND FISH SAUCE HE MADE EARLIER

THE PRE-FRIED CHICKEN WILL SOAK UP THE SAUCE

STIR-FRIED WITH THE CABBAGE

I'll mix it together with the sauce and cabbage.

A SOUTHEAST ASIAN CHICKEN DISH WHERE THE SAUCE SEEPS RIGHT IN

WHAT GUMDONGYI HAD BEEN CRAVING

Can you feel the difference in the level of plating?

You stack it up like a mountain.

YOON NAM-NO'S SOUTHEAST ASIAN-STYLE GARLIC CHICKEN

It looks different.

THE GUKBAP HE SERVED THE GRANNIES

HE SOAKS THE RICE IN THE BROTH AND SERVES IT IN AN EARTHEN BOWL

DONG-YEON HELPS WITH THE FINISHING TOUCH

- How does this look? - It's looks great.

BOWING OVER THE FOOD IN CONCENTRATION

NAM-NO FINDS IT ADORABLE

I'll wipe it off a bit.

I'm back to life now.

I've found back my identity.

WHAT?

HOW WILL THE ACTORS PERFORM?

CHEF ACTING COMPETITION VILLAGE BARBER COOK-OFF

Chef Kwak, may I ask what dish you prepared today?

- Today I prepared - Yes.

a gukbap with pork neck

- and shoulder meat. - I see.

Who cut the kelp today?

CHEF KWAK'S SCOLDING TURNS THE AIR FRIGID

Was this radish harvested in the fall?

They're not all the same thickness.

- Yes, chef. - Be more careful.

Chef Kwak. Table four says their food is overcooked.

If they don't want to eat, they can leave.

WHAT A WEIRD RESTAURANT

This is insane.

Did you hear the sigh?

"If they don't want to eat, they can leave."

It's too funny to keep going.

- It's hard. He's too good. - It's hard to keep a poker face.

I'm out because I laughed.

Thank you so much for the food.

Think of it as an invigorating tonic.

- Thank you for the food. - Thank you.

- Enjoy. - You need to taste it.

It's incredible.

IN AWE

- Gosh. - Eat it with this.

I stif-fried it with fish sauce and cabbage.

The cabbage goes all the way down.

It's really good.

It's nice to see you enjoy it.

THIS IS WHAT HE CAME TO SEE

IT WAS THEIR DAY OFF AND IT WAS UNINTENTIONALLY DRAINING

NAM-NO CHEERED THEM UP

THE FROWN OF TRUTH

Are you okay?

THE CHICKEN TASTES INCREDIBLE

It's so tasty.

It feels a bit weird.

I'm in the countryside

eating with people I never could've met.

It was worth the work.

I feel happy.

To think that food can make you happy.

Being able to create good memories for someone

makes you pretty happy.

Something like that.

I think it's the same for everyone.

We paint nails and cut hair for people

and hear about their lives as we do so.

They must all have fond memories.

You're more than halfway through.

- It must be a bit sad. - It's sad.

One day...

It was over the weekend.

We had a fish-shaped bun day

and 30 to 40 people came by.

- It was crazy. - Really?

- The whole village came, then. - Almost everyone.

Everyone's so kind and generous.

They looked out for us.

The kids we played with who we sent home before coming in.

They're both girls who start fifth grade in March.

One made us...

I'm not wearing mine in case I lose it.

Are you wearing yours?

She made bracelets for each of us.

- Is this it? - Yes.

- There are two. - I love it.

It looks luxurious. It's well-made. She made it herself?

I'm starting to feel sad.

I've grown attached to everyone.

Actually

it's a short period and we see them only a few hours a day.

- That's right. - We just met strangers

whom we had no connections at all.

But they opened their hearts to let us in

and treated us with warmth.

THEY MISSED THE RESIDENTS DURING THEIR BRIEF BREAK

I think I'll miss Ms. Ra a lot, too.

It's hard to say goodbye.

Why are you tearing up?

He's crying. I see tears.

The thing is

I act cheeky and friendly as if I'm approachable.

I find it a bit hard to befriend people and open up.

Although on the outside

I look like I have no problem with it.

That's because I know what it's like to part ways.

It's a bit

upsetting.

So I always tried to keep a boundary.

I think I crossed that boundary in the few days I was here

unconsciously.

That's why I feel weird right now.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Happy New Year. - Get back safely.

- Bye. - Take care.

SENDING THE FAIRY GODMOTHER YOON NAM-NO OFF

- Goodbye. - Bye!

LATE THAT NIGHT

THE BARBERSHOP'S STILL OPEN

SNIPPING SOUNDS

BO GUM ASKED SOME CREW MEMBERS TO VOLUNTEER FOR PRACTICE CUTS

EVEN ON HIS DAY OFF

BO GUM PRACTICES FOR THE CLIENTS HE'LL MEET TOMORROW

I went to Mount Deogyusan and the downtown area

and that gave me something else to talk about with the locals.

I'm looking forward to see who will come by tomorrow.

Even if more people come over

I have the confidence that I think I can manage.

I look forward to tomorrow.

We're open for business.

- It's going to be hectic. - Yeah.

BACK TO BUSINESS THE VILLAGE BARBER IS BUSY

Pull yourself together.

Just one day off feels like we're back after ages.

It's a time bomb.

Things aren't going so well today.

I'm so clumsy and careless.

- Are they brothers? - Three brothers.

- Should we do a cheer? - Oh, wow.

LET'S START OVER!

As long as it's not too short.

I'll cut your hair now.

I cut it too short.

I'm sorry.

I think something went in my eye.

Maybe about this short for the bangs.

Okay.

18-MONTH-OLD THE YOUNGEST CUSTOMER EVER

Sit right here.

Oh, you don't like it?

You don't like it.

I'll start cutting your hair now.

- Baby bear is so cute - Baby bear is so cute

- Job well done - Job well done

- Hello. - Hello.

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS SHOW UP AT THE VILLAGE BARBER

I want to make a donation.

She's donating her hair.

That's amazing.

I'll do the best I can.
