ASIAN MARKET ASIA FOODS

UNEXPECTED BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA

We're here in "Los" and "Geles".

BYUNGEUN & KYUNGHO ARE IN LA

TO EXPAND THE BUSINESS

What's this?

What's going on?

Goodness. How can this happen?

- As soon as we get to LA...
- My goodness.

EMERGENCY ALERT
AS SOON AS THEY ARRIVE

- Lightning never strikes twice.
- That'd be great.

WHAT MATTERS IS
AN INDOMITABLE SPIRIT

THEY FINALLY ARRIVE
AT THE MARKET

TO FIND THE INGREDIENTS

- Should we get three of each?
- Three of each?

Gosh, this sure isn't easy.

THE LA BUSINESS TRIP CONTINUES

MEANWHILE, BACK AT THE MARKET,
THEY WRAP UP DAY 3 OF BUSINESS

Thank you for your hard work.
We're going to eat out today!

- Yay!
- Hooray!

- Great job.
- Good work.

YOU WORKED HARD, SO ENJOY!

I'll be off.

IT'S ALREADY TIME
TO SAY GOODBYE TO HYOJOO

- Bye.
- Bye!

- Bye, Hyojoo.
- Okay. I'll get going then!

AFTER SAYING GOODBYE
TO THEIR BELOVED EMPLOYEE…

It feels strange now that
only three people are leaving the house.

I heard it's busy on Saturdays.

HE'S WORRIED ABOUT
TODAY'S SALES…

- Oh! Oh! I thought she was a customer!
- Oh my! Ajoong is here!

THEIR RESCUER, KIM AJOONG,
IS HERE

Hello.

Agent Ajoong!

THEIR HAPPINESS IS BRIEF…

- Hey, Agent Kim!
- Yes, sir.

Oh, my!

- We need to get rolling.
- Come here.

I can't believe I'm doing this
less than 30 minutes into my arrival.

WILL AJOONG,
THE ROOKIE PART-TIMER,

BE ABLE TO ADAPT…?

That's too much.

- Too much?
- It'll get fat.

- Thinly.
- Thinly.

It's one of our top complaints.

Thin ones.

I think they prefer thinner ones.

- Like this, right?
- Yes, roll it.

SHE BEGINS ROLLING CAREFULLY…

Push, push it!

Kimbap maker, get it together!

The kimbap is too fat!

No.

It's nothing serious, everyone.
No biggie. No worries.

Right now, they're having fun over there.

- Stretch it all the way up!
- Oh...

INSUNG'S
INTENSE KIMBAP TRAINING SITE

That's it. Now we have it.

Got it?

SHE'S LOSING HER MIND

- I don't think...
- Are you done yet?

No, not yet. Come back in an hour.

Oh, no!

- Come back in an hour.
- Oh, no!

We don't have time!

You can think of it as a training process.

Did you come here to play?

- You crying?
- What is it?

Already thinking of your mom, huh?

WHILE THE HARSH TRAINING
CONTINUES…

Let's focus.

FOCUS, FOCUS

You know I'm fast when I'm focused, right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Of course, I know.

FOLLOWING THE BIG LESSON,
SHE SPREADS THE RICE THINLY

IMITATION CRAB + PICKLED RADISH
+ EOMUK + BURDOCK + CARROTS

SHE TAKES OUT SOME CARROTS
JUST AS SHE WAS TAUGHT

AND ROLLS IT SLOWLY
WITH RICE AND SEAWEED

WILL HER FIRST KIMBAP
TURN OUT OKAY…?

SHE ROLLED IT WELL!

Wow.

Wow.

AJOONG'S FIRST KIMBAP IS DONE

Good job, good job.
What about sesame oil?

- Yeah, I brushed it already.
- Okay.

- Good job.
- Wow.

THE INTENSE TRAINING HAS CREATED
A KIMBAP MASTER

AJOONG BEGINS TO MAKE
ANOTHER KIMBAP RIGHT AWAY

Wow, I had no idea
that I'd be making kimbap here.

- No one here had any idea.
- Never imagined it.

- Did you eat?
- Yes, did you?

Tell me if you want something.
I'll make it for you.

- Really?
- Of course.

TEMPTING!

SHE SPEEDS UP AT JUHWAN'S WORDS

Then I'll do my best to roll them fast.

Okay.

You can do it. Let's go!

Has Ajoong gotten the hang of it?

- She's got it now.
- As expected.

We have yet another great agent!

That's great.

THE BOSS IS PLEASED

9:30 A.M.
ON A BUSY SATURDAY MORNING

- Here, here.
- Here?

WEEKENDS ARE PACKED
WITH FAMILY MEMBERS

COMPARED TO THE WEEKDAYS

LOL

THE MARRIED COUPLE OF 46 YEARS
LEAVES

AFTER GIVING EVERYONE
A GOOD LAUGH

THIS CUSTOMER COMPARES
EACH PRODUCT THOROUGHLY

A FEW MOMENTS LATER…

I need really a whole box. A whole box.

I... I'll find...

I will find.

Okay, okay. We got same, same. Same.

- Yep.
- The same company.

HE OPENS IT RIGHT AWAY TO CHECK

Only small ones.

THE BIG SIZE

It's too small.

- Oh.
- Small. I need bigger than that.

Quan! Mr. Quan!

Yes.

Yes.

I HAD A FEELING…

- Quan?
- I'm back again.

- Do you know him?
- Yes.

He owns a restaurant.

He'd had 20% off, but that's okay.

HE PURCHASED IN BULK
THREE DAYS AGO

HE RUNS A RESTAURANT

AND IS A REGULAR
WHO ALWAYS GETS A 20% DISCOUNT

He said he needs
to receive a 20% discount.

That should be 10%, not 20%.

Gosh, are you saying
that you fell for his tactics?

HE WAS FOOLED!!

- Yeah.
- You said 20 discount.

Yeah, I called... I called Kim.

- Uh-huh, what'd he say?
- Mr. Kim, "10 discount!"

- Okay, so... I will pay you back.
- Okay, dear.

- We'll pay you back. We pay it back.
- Here. Hey, no. Okay.

- I'll give him back. I will pay it back.
- Okay, thank you.

- No, no. No problem.
- He wants the big one, Taehyun.

I want big one, this is too small.

HE HELPS FIND THE BIGGER SIZE
THAT MR. QUAN WANTS

That better be the big one.

THIS TIME, IT'S THE BIG BOTTLE!

- Okay, twelve.
- Yep!

- Yep.
- Forty. Oh, it's a total flex!

Can I ask why you told him...

I thought it was 20. He always did 20%.

He did, like, okay.

That's why I think you'd call.
He would call Kim, you know?

I give him my number. He call, you know?

You didn't expect he check?

Well, I knew he gonna check, you know?
I know...

- I'm just kidding.
- I know.

No, don't worry about it.
I know Kim. He know...

We buy every time, you know?
Noodle udon, stuff like that.

- Mr. Kim.
- Eh, no problem.

Restaurant... What kind of restaurant?

Noodle.

Noodle... Ah.

- Here you are. Thank you so much.
- Thank you.

All right. See you later, okay?

Bye. All right.

- I'm sorry about that.
- Eh, just kidding, just kidding.

- Bye-bye. Yeah.
- You are cheeky child.

IT TURNS OUT QUAN
HAD ALREADY SPOKEN

TO MR. KIM ON THE PHONE EARLIER

I'm going to help with the kimbap.

- Stay here, and...
- Okay, I'll be here.

- I'll send her here in a bit.
- Okay.

- Around lunchtime.
- Okay.

- You have to teach her well.
- Okay.

Please enter your PIN number.

Isn't it funny, Ajoong?

- Oh, yes.
- Wondering what's going on, no?

Yes.

But it's fun. Now that I've come to
my senses, I'm having fun.

Well, it's better to have something to do.

- Rather than not knowing what to do.
- Yes, it's better than that.

It's your first time making kimbap,
but you caught on quick.

Well, Insung is a know-it-all.

I was surprised
how good he is at teaching.

- By yelling at you?
- Yes, yes.

Right.

He yelled at you really harshly.

Since there are many locals here,
if you work as the cashier…

man, seriously,

I don't know what they're saying.

You have to go do it now, Ajoong.

SHE FEELS MORE AND MORE PRESSURE

I can communicate just fine
when it comes to making sales.

But after a few encounters,

and after you blank out a couple times,

it gets better.

Everything works out.
Don't worry about it.

Afterward, I started to think,
"Wouldn't it be better to make kimbap?"

SCARING THE ROOKIE:

WORKING THE COUNTER
IS MUCH TOUGHER

- Thank you.
- Yes, ma'am. Thank you for coming.

- Thank you for coming here.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

Wow, how do the customers
rush in all of a sudden?

Do you need any help?

- No, I'm fine.
- You okay?

There are no customers now.

Hey, when you filmed The King with Ajoong,

she was your wife in The King, right?

Yes.

Hold on. Only your wives came then?

- You married me first.
- You're right.

- Gosh, that's right. Yeah.
- Then you married Ajoong.

- Weren't you married to Hyojoo this time?
- You're right.

- You're that type of guy?
- I guess so.

- You're that type of guy?
- I guess so.

I've been married three times.

Just remember that I'm your first wife.

Come to think of it, all your wives came.

- You're right. I didn't realize.
- I should go show her who's boss.

Wait here.

THE FIRST WIFE GOES
TO DISCIPLINE THE SECOND WIFE

LONG STRIDES

Ajoong, you!

Ajoong, you!
I heard you were married to Insung.

I heard you were married to Insung.

LOL!

Now that I think about it,

I'm not sure if this was part of his plan.

But I was the first to get married to him.

- He's been married too many times.
- He has three wives.

- That's right.
- But as his first wife, I must say...

- Sorry? Oh, right.
- Isn't that too much rice?

I'll spread it thinly, madam.

Oh, right. You have seniority as his wife.

- Yes.
- That's right.

- I was her college senior too.
- She's right.

Wow, Ajoong was your
college junior and wife jun...

Yes, wife junior.

Wife junior? What on earth is that?

- Wife junior?
- Is there such a thing?

We have a customer.
Mr. Cha, I'll get going then.

Okay.

AS SHE ROLLED THE KIMBAP
WHILE JOKING AROUND

There's no more.

- There isn't?
- That's not enough for one.

There you go.

THEY NEED TO SEASON THE RICE
AGAIN

SHE SCOOPS UP THE COOKED RICE

AND POURS TWO TO THREE ROUNDS
OF SESAME OIL

AJOONG TAKES ON
AN IMPORTANT ROLE

AS SOON AS SHE STARTS THE JOB

MR. CHA
GOES TO REFILL THE KIMBAP

- After you mix the rice…
- Yeah?

…you have to cool it down.

Right? But can I just mix the rice
with the rice scoop?

Yeah, you can.

Do I let it cool down for a bit?

LET THE RICE COOL DOWN
FOR A BIT

Yes, for a bit.

WHILE RICE IS COOLING DOWN,
AJOONG…

FINALLY STARTS LOOKING AROUND
OTHER GOODS IN THE MARKET

CHECKS OUT EVERY AISLE
AND EVERY CORNER

ENTERS THE NEXT AISLE

You still make kimbap?

I need 20.

- Here, in the middle.

Sorry, we are...

JUHWAN ASKS FOR
HIS UNDERSTANDING

Throw it away when you're done.

I think this is too much rice.

- It's okay.
- I think it'll get too fat.

It's okay.

I want to give him kimbap.

He wants to buy 20 rolls.

But we already decided on a rule.

SAD

- I see.
- We should stick with it.

We sell 300 to 400 rolls every day.

MR. CHA HURRIEDLY RUSHES OVER

- Okay.

Then, to the counter!

EXILE SYSTEM IN EFFECT

GRIM…

You must be in charge of it.

I don't know what I pressed wrong.

How... What did I press?

Oh, oh, kim...

- There's no rice.

Oh, please hold on.

There's no rice at all, Taehyun.

She's constantly getting scolded.

Pretty hard.

ACTUALLY, THIS IS MR. ZO'S
COUNSELING OFFICE

HE'S ALL EARS, WHILE HIS
HANDS ARE FULL WITH RICE

AS ALWAYS,
HE POURS IN HALF A SACK!

AND RINSES IT A COUPLE TIMES

MEASURING THE RIGHT AMOUNT
OF WATER IS KEY

Isn't that too much?

We need the rice to be very sticky.

- Really?
- This is still not enough.

HE TEACHES HER HOW TO MEASURE
THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WATER

QUICK COURSE ON RICE COOKING
IS OVER!

3-6-7. Cash or card?

Oh, really? Here.

- Yes, so...

- We're so sorry.
- Oh, I'm sorry.

- You must've gone far...
- Ajoong, take this.

- Did you finish making five rolls?
- Oh, no.

+ 5 MORE ROLLS ADDED

Thank you.

What's going on?

- Well, she bought kimbap earlier.
- Okay?

- Did you...
- But we forgot to give it to her.

- Did you get it now?
- Yes, so it's okay.

- That's good.
- Is there anything you'd like to eat?

- I'd love to...
- What on earth?

- No, I'm fine.
- What are you thinking?

- What are you gonna buy her?
- Like some snacks?

- Hey, part-timer. What're you doing?
- Well, I...

What are you saying right now?
You just got here.

- I just feel so sorry.
- It's okay.

- I mean...
- No, I should've made sure of it.

- I was so nervous too.
- Are you...

- You both returning from somewhere?
- Yes.

Drive home safely.

Please come again.

I'll remember you both,
so I can give you snacks next time.

- Oh, really?
- Yes.

Hey, part-timer.
Why do you keep saying that?

- I mean...
- Why?

- Since I keep making mistakes, Taehyun.
- Well, that's…

That doesn't mean
you can just give people stuff!

That's not how things work here.
My goodness.

Why do you keep yelling at her?

You're lowering her spirits!

- Complimenting her wouldn't be enough.
- No, I mean...

She was the one behind
that $13,000 incident earlier, remember?

Remember what you did yesterday?

- Was it $5,600?
- Well, it was a much lesser amount.

- I've never seen the number go so high!
- You're being so stingy.

- But she is a generous person.
- Look at her, all low in spirits!

Okay, hear me out.

She was like, "I'll give you snacks."

- Really? With your money?
- That's not right.

- You start doing that.
- Yes?

You'll lose hundreds of millions here.

MEANWHILE, OTHER CUSTOMERS

By any chance…

A FAVOR…?

Part-timing?

We need a part-timer.

Because we need someone

It's a lot of preparation work.

Instead of always being the one doing it.
Oh, like these.

Oh, don't tell me you're one of those

- You think?

Or dadaegi.

Dadaegi?

I want to sprinkle some chili powder.

She's checking on me.

Is that mine?

Two different kinds, actually.

- Okay, we got it.
- I wasn't prepared for all of this.

- Separate?
- Yes.

You paid that much?

He makes more money than me.

I'M NOT SURE
WHAT THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS…

AJOONG RINGS UP
THE FIRST CUSTOMER'S ITEMS FIRST

So, where are you from?

We live together.

Oh, you're Korean? Hello, ma'am.

- Daughter-in-law.

- And my grandson.
- Mother-in-law!

Yes.

- My son.
- They're both my daughters-in-law.

I'm part Korean. I know it's hard to tell.

Only a quarter Korean.

- I am too.
- Okay.

- Pardon? What would you like?
- The bottled juice.

I have great-grandchildren now.

My goodness.

I'm 84 years old.

Wow, you're in great condition.
You look so healthy.

SHE IS STILL HEALTHY EVEN AFTER
RAISING FOUR GENERATIONS

THEY FINISHED PAYING
WHILE MAKING SMALL TALK

AND THE BIG, HAPPY FAMILY LEAVES

A CUSTOMER SUDDENLY

DRAGGING~

HE-HE

Thank you.

Hey!

IT'S MOVING?

Do you see yourself on there?

Don't touch it, please.

Come here.

It's okay. It's okay. Yeah.

It's okay.

He's just a kid.

Sorry.

WHILE HIS MOM IS BUSY PAYING…

Ring it up together, please.

HE ESCAPES

Don't touch it.
You already have your candy.

I want it.

I want it.

NOT AGAIN!

Bringing it up.

HE GETS TRAPPED

You have to stay right here.

Fifteen dollars.

He doesn't listen.

JACKSON LEAVES WHILE
BABBLING UNTIL THE END

MEANWHILE, SHAKIRA AND
HER FRIENDS ARE STILL EATING

- What happened?
- Just... Was driving to LA.

What?

- He called you?
- Who? Who? Who? Wait, what?

Hey, have you heard about ♪♪♪♪?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S-HER-NAME?

- Wait...
- She called him.

Wow.

I went to a coffee shop once.

There was a girl there. Her name is ♪♪♪♪.

And she ran into him.

So she started talking to him.

- She was on to it?
- I think she... I think she.

- I think she was interested.
- Okay?

- In this guy.
- Okay!

When did this happen?

How come I've never heard of this?

It's my first time hearing of it.

When we went to lunch,

they didn't talk much.

Man, sisters can be so annoying, no?

- Wow.
- When did this happen?

- And then she told him a few weeks ago.
- Two weeks ago?

How come I've never heard of this?

- He's like a "silent killer."
- I'm curious.

Is it because he's mysterious?

Oh, really?

- Is it because he's mysterious?
- Oh, really?

Like, "Huh? What's with him?"

- "How interesting."
- He's always like that.

He just acts like that.

Average day in my life.

- Wow!
- Mr. Popular.

- Shut up.
- Kai... Kai is actually...

He's my younger brother.

- That's what I thought.
- Yes.

He's charming.

Yes, he's quite charming.

- Kai.
- Kai?

- Kai?
- Kai.

How are you all friends though?

- Neighborhood friends.
- Neighborhood friends?

- We all met at church.
- Church?

- Oh, so you all met at church?
- Yes.

I was surprised to see you two together.

I thought, "You're friends too?"

Yes, we're all connected.

THEY ALL KNOW EACH OTHER, LOL

Okay.

We just need to buy a rice cooker now.

This must be a famous place too.

It's the biggest electronics market in LA.

- Hello.
- Hello.

So, we're here to buy a rice cooker.

- On the second floor.
- It's upstairs?

- Thank you.
- Yes.

THEY GO UP TO THE SECOND FLOOR

FOR THE REASON THEY CAME HERE

My goodness.

TO FIND A RICE CO… SOME APPAREL

Fashionista pants, one each?

Golfwear...

- Forty...
- I knew you'd take a look.

- Hello. I'd like to buy a rice cooker.
- Okay.

I need a white T-shirt.

Hurry up, Byungeun!

- Hurry up, Byungeun!
- Okay.

Hello. I'd like to buy a rice cooker.

Yes, of course.

Thank you. Here it is.

- This way, please.
- Thank you.

This is the biggest one.

- Oh, this one is for 28 people?
- Yes.

- How many servings is this one?
- Thirty servings.

- So this one's for 30 people?
- Yes.

- Really?
- If you look…

Back then, we…

- It's similar.
- Yes, it is.

This is our biggest one.

I thought I could find one here.

But I looked it up and they don't have it.

- What kind of rice cooker is it?
- That's why... That brand.

It's a rice cooker for 20 portions.

I don't know if it's because
that's what I practiced with.

- You need that exact same rice cooker?
- Yeah.

- That's...
- This is why he is more anxious right now.

Listen…

- I practiced with this brand.
- I see.

It's not the exact same model.

It's for 28 people.

I should go with the one I practiced with.

- How many servings is this one?
- Twenty.

I must've done it with this size.

This is what you used to practice at home?

This is the size.

HAPPY TO MEET
A RICE COOKER FOR 20

- But it's a different brand.
- Then no.

We're here because of that brand.

That's right.

And to be honest,
it'd be better to put in more.

We can sell more, so that's better.

- I just have to change the amount.
- Change it according to this.

- Exactly. This one, please.
- Sure.

You're competent enough.

Let me pack it up for you.

Thank you.

FINISHED PURCHASING
28-SERVING RICE COOKER!

- Thank you. I got it.
- Let me.

BYUNGEUN CARRIES THE RICE COOKER

A chef should always
take care of his hands.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- It's heavy.
- No, it's okay.

We can't have you hurting your hands.

- We're done buying everything.
- Okay.

- We should buy some clothes.
- Clothes?

We should eat and get ready to go.

We have an hour left.

- Why don't we take a look around then?
- Leave this here.

They really have everything here.

These keep you very cool in the summer.

It's nice. I think it'll look good on you.

If I wear it,
I'll look like an old geezer.

That's not true.

Aren't you getting one?

I have a lot.

What?

WHY SHOP FOR THINGS
YOU AREN'T GONNA BUY…?

So you'll pick one out for me?

- Byungeun.
- This one keeps you cool, doesn't it?

Are you going to buy it?

No, I'm just trying it on.

Why wear it when you won't buy it?

This is shopping.

You're taking your sweet time
now that we've bought everything.

Goodness.

This is a stylish outfit.

I don't really like those
because they get dirty.

That one, I think, when you're
a little bit older.

When gravity pulls down my face
a bit more.

I'M LOSING THE MOTIVATION
TO SHOP FOR SOME REASON…

Let's go eat.

Or maybe there's another place.

Thank you.

MEANWHILE,
MR. CHA VISITS THE KITCHEN

- Can these go out now?
- Yes.

Hello.

- Hi.
- Hi.

GUESS HE'S NOT KOREAN…

NEED SOME TIME TO PREPARE
MYSELF, I'LL BE BACK SOON…

Puerto Ricans? Puerto Ricans?

- Like, Mexicans...
- Depends.

Yeah, Mexicans too. It depends.

- It's like half and half.
- Okay.

Some places you go
and it will be very spicy.

KIMCHI GETS SERVED

TAKES A BITE OF KIMCHI

It's good.

First time I had kimchi,
I didn't like it at all.

Oh, you didn't like it?

No. But then I had more, little by little.

I like it more now.

It was very sour at one time.

I would say this is
a bit more salty than usual.

- Kind of just a little bit more flavor.
- I like it, so…

There's lots… of sodium.
Do you need the sodium?

I need sodium.

They left too much for me.

Gotta burn it all off.

MUSCULAR

MORE SODIUM JUST FOR YOU!

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

HERE'S YOUR RAMYEON

This is definitely good hangover food,
though, so…

Oh, yeah.

First time I went to Vegas as an adult,
first night… Too much.

And I had some ramyeon the next day,
like this one.

SLURP

CHEW

SLURP

CHEW

DONE CURING HANGOVER TODAY

MEANWHILE…

- Agent Ajoong.
- Yes!

I think the rice is ready.

- Is the rice ready?
- Really?

- Time for kimbap rolling.
- Then…

You know we add
the sauce to the rice, right?

- Yes.
- You know what I mean, right?

- But it's hot, so be careful.
- Okay.

HOPPING

EXCITED TO MAKE KIMBAP

THE LONG LINE REACHES
THE KIMBAP SECTION

Hi.

SUDDEN COMPOSURE

WORKING ALONE FOR THE FIRST TIME
SINCE COMING HERE

Juhwan started with slicing first.

It looks good.

PUTS THE FRESH-COOKED RICE
INTO THE BASIN

It looks really hot.

- This rice…
- Did it not cook well?

- Is it bad?
- No. It's a bit…

The scorched rice looks so good.

But you can't use that to make kimbap.

Then I'll exclude it.

You can eat the scorched rice by yourself.

Hey, you can't use that part of the rice.

- You're right.
- You have to use everything above it.

- Agent Ajoong. Get it together!
- Yes, sir.

SCORCHED RICE IS
ON THE BOTTOM OF THE COOKER

WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH IT…

TAKES A SHEET OF DRIED SEAWEED

DONE SCOOPING ALL THE RICE OUT

Yay.

GETS SESAME OIL

SWIRLS IT AROUND
TWO AND A HALF TIMES

Hey, prisoner. Are you doing well?

- Insung.
- Yeah?

Where's the sauce for kimbap?

MR. ZO INSPECTS
THE KIMBAP CORNER

- Sauce?
- Yes.

- 160 milliliter?
- Yes.

FINDS THE SAUCE FOR HER
DURING INSPECTION

MR. ZO TAKES CARE OF
HIS EMPLOYEES

POURS 160ML OF KIMBAP SAUCE

- Is that right?
- Yes.

POURS

MIX IT EVENLY,
AND KIMBAP RICE IS COMPLETE

Actually, I want to add soy sauce and eggs
and just eat it.

WHAT DID SHE JUST SAY…?

Doesn't it smell so good?

Right?

Insung, I saw jeotgal in there.

I wonder why people don't add jeotgal
to kimbap.

It sounds delicious.

You want to take that risk?

No.

No?

What are you doing?

Scorched rice from earlier.

INSUNG IS CONFUSED

Listen. The rice that was just made
was a bit burned at the bottom.

It looked so delicious,
so I saved it here.

- I see.
- Yes.

We can't make kimbap with it anyway.

It's so good.

It'd be perfect with seasoned anchovy.

Do you want some?

Insung, I think I'm hungry.

I feel hungry
even when the customers are buying stuff.

BECOMES IMPATIENT WHEN HUNGRY

WHILE THE HOT RICE COOLS DOWN

AJOONG IS PLANNING TO
FILL HER STOMACH

- Nothing is impossible.
- What is it?

Where did you get it?

SEASONED ANCHOVY

The owner of a restaurant nearby
brought some side dishes.

Enjoy.

TAKES A BITE!

No more food for you today.

No dinner for you.

MR. ZO LEAVES WITH A JOKE

I need to pull myself together.

I'LL PULL MYSELF TOGETHER
AFTER ANOTHER BITE

Thank you.

MEANWHILE, AT THE CASH REGISTER…

- Don't work too hard.
- Thank you.

- Hi. Thank you for waiting.
- Hello.

- Good morning.
- Good...

- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.

Kimchi.

$11.99.

We want to make kimchi fried rice.

- Fried rice?
- Yeah.

- Do you like it?
- Yeah. A lot.

We love a lot of Korean food.

FEELS PROUD

Hey, hey, hey!

The line is long.

Less talking, more working.

It's not the time for that.

He's my boss.
And he always says, "No talking anymore!"

Quickly!

- Okay, I'm so sorry.
- So many people waiting!

DESPITE THE VERY LONG LINE

This long line is because of you, huh?

- Come on, Taehyun!
- Gosh.

- Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.
- How harsh of you to say that.

BUT I'M GOOD AT MATH TOO!

What?

What? Taehyun.

- What's going on now?
- It's 7,000...

Oh, my God!

THEIR TOTAL COMES TO $7,525

Oh, my God.

- Seven, five, five, six, zero, zero.
- Oh, my God.

Kimbap.

And I punch in kimbap again.

- I saw it's $7,000.
- Okay.

Oh, yeah.

I heard you were rich girl.

That's fine.

We just moved here.

Thank you.

Hello.

Just tell me the price.

$7.99. Tax.

Oh, $7.99.

- Tax. All right.
- Tax.

- Korean melons.
- Put it on the scale.

- It's $3.14.
- $3.14.

The total is $49.24.

- That's $60 from you.
- Yes.

Where did you park?

- I'll take it.
- He'll help you carry them.

- No, it's fine.
- He'll help you.

It's too heavy for you to carry it.

I parked it over there.

- I see.
- It's far.

I'LL DELIVER IT TO YOUR CAR!

MEANWHILE,
THE RICE HAS COOLED DOWN

SHALL I START
MAKING SOME KIMBAP?

TAEHYUN JOINS HER

Are you still eating?

- What?
- What?

- What?
- What?

What are you eating?

- What you still eating?
- What are you doing?

- What is this?
- What is this?

- What did you do?
- What did you do?

What are you… Did you just…

- What are you…
- Where did you get this?

We caught you red-handed.

We need video evidence.

What are you doing?

- I've never seen anyone like you.
- I can't believe this.

- Ajoong…
- Did you make this?

…is this who you are?

APPALLED AT HIS BETRAYAL

I was wondering
why the kimbap wasn't coming.

- Is this just for you?
- I'm speechless.

Wow, how shocking.

SO UNFAIR

MR. ZO LEAVES
AFTER TEASING AJOONG BIG TIME

I was like, "What's taking so long?"

PREPARES TO ROLL
DESPITE THE RUCKUS

So, I came to roll some.

KIMBAP PRODUCTION BEGINS

BALL OF RICE MAGNET

SPREAD OUT THE RICE

TAKE OUT
THE COLORFUL INGREDIENTS

FROM TAEHYUN'S CORNER

Have you tried adding anything else
to the kimbap?

This is all we add here.

I guess that's why it's good.

Something simple and easy to make.

SIMPLE IS BEST

Helps to keep it cheap.

Yay.

PICKING UP THE PACE

- Ajoong, you make them over there.
- Oh, okay.

- The rice is here.
- Okay.

Sure, take that with you.

Sure, take that with you.

MY PRECIOUS LITTLE RICE BALL

GONNA EAT IT LATER

Can I have two rolls?

- Two roll?
- Uh-huh.

ORDER MUST BE PLACED
AT THE COUNTER, THOUGH…

- How long time wait?
- Fifteen minutes.

Fifteen minute. Only two?

- Just the two?
- Just two. Yeah.

- Just two?
- Yeah.

- Wait for. Wait for.
- Okay. Thank you.

TAEHYUN CAN'T REFUSE A CUSTOMER
WHO'S BEEN WAITING

What happened to the man
that's usually here?

- Vacation. Vacation.
- Oh, good, good, good.

Glad he got to go on vacation.

HE OPTS TO GIVE HER
THE PREMADE KIMBAP

- Here.
- Thank you so much.

HUSH!

OKEY DOKEY

SECRET TIGHTLY SECURED

ALL THE KIMBAP

Okay.

ARE SHIPPED OUT ALL AT ONCE

Hello.

Oh, wow! Kimbap is coming.

MEANWHILE,
RESTAURANT SALES ARE ONGOING

Do you have rice? Just a taste.

- Okay, rice? Rice?
- Yeah, yeah.

BROS KNOW HOW TO EAT RAMYEON

- It's free.
- Oh, thank you.

Appreciate it.

HE TAKES A BIG SPOONFUL OF RICE

SLURPS ONE SPOONFUL OF RA-BAP

Because it's seafood,
the soup is supposed to be really good.

That's why I like the rice with it.

IF YOU SAY IT'S GOOD,
I OBVIOUSLY GOTTA TRY IT TOO

IT'S GOOD~

WHEN MEN EAT MEALS TOGETHER:

THEY DON'T TALK

I failed you.

What?

I failed you. I dropped a piece.

You're good at the chopsticks, man.

I did pretty good.

I... When I first started…

- Did they say it's spicy?
- No.

TAEHYUN REVISITS THE BROS

Does it taste okay?

Is it a little spicy? No spicy?

- No, it's not spicy at all. Not spicy.
- Really?

I like it. I like it spicy, it's good.

- Yes, good, good.
- Yeah.

HE CAN'T SAY MUCH, BUT
HE'S RELIEVED THAT THEY LIKE IT

ONE GROUP OF CUSTOMERS
ENTER THE MARKET

- Oh, my. Hello, ma'am!
- Oh, hello!

- Hello. You've grown so big.
- Come on in.

- Hello... Oh, yes.
- Please have a seat.

WHO COULD THEY BE…?

- Oh, nice to see you here.
- We were just passing by.

You know, making the price tags.

THIS ELDER AND MARKET EMPLOYEE…

We don't have to worry about the price?

…TAUGHT HIM
HOW TO PRICE THE PRODUCTS

HE'S HERE
WITH HIS GRANDSONS TODAY

Oh, Kai!

- Hello.
- Hello, ma'am.

Jerome.

- What's good? You had ramyeon?
- Yeah, it's good.

I'll have that too.

- It's spicy. That one's a bit spicy.
- It is?

Then we can make it less spicy.

- We can milden up the spice a bit.
- Well, these kids...

- Can they eat spicy food?
- They grew up in the States.

So they've never had spicy food.

- Are they your grandsons?
- Yes, my grandsons.

Little bit spicier. It's okay?

- Uh-huh!
- Okay.

- Then, we'll all have ramyeon.
- I'll put in my best effort.

MR. ZO IS GETTING BUSY AGAIN

FOUR BOWLS COMING UP ALL AT ONCE

TWO OUT OF FOUR
MUST BE MILDER IN SPICE

BEATING THE EGGS

WHEN THE NOODLES
ARE ALMOST COOKED

CURRENTLY TRANSFORMING
INTO MILDER ONES

Hi. Do you remember me?

Probably not. You guys were babies.

- From where?
- From church.

I remember your dad.

Were they four or five?

Yeah.

YOU SURE HAVE GROWN BIG

Hello.

- Enjoy your meal.
- Okay.

- See you soon.
- Goodbye.

THE NEIGHBORS'
BRIEF ENCOUNTER ENDS

- Bye.
- Bye.

AND THE BROS ARE DONE
WITH THEIR MEAL TOO

- Thank you.
- Bye. Have a nice day.

THANK YOU FOR THE TASTY MEAL~

THE MILDER DAEGE RAMYEON
IS SERVED FIRST

- I'll get you the kimchi and banchan.
- Okay.

BLOWING ON IT~

Spicy!

FORTUNATELY,
THEY BOTH SEEM TO LIKE IT

BUT HE STILL GETS SOME WATER FOR
THEM JUST IN CASE IT GETS SPICY

Try not to get it everywhere.

HE ACTUALLY SPILLED IT…

I told you.

BUT GRANDPA SIMPLY CHUCKLES

DAEGE RAMYEON ALL SERVED

- Thank you.
- No worries.

It must taste better
since it's served by such a handsome man.

- Thank you. Okay.
- I'll get you some napkin.

Their kimchi looks good.

SHE HAS A TASTE
WHILE IT'S STILL HOT

It's chewy.

Hello there, Elder.

The Elder is here.

- It's tough, huh?
- Huh?

But… I thought you were going somewhere?

Their school break ends tomorrow.

- School's starting back up on Monday?
- Yes.

Thanks to this show…
we were able to take care of the kids.

He's never been on break for this long.

- I see.
- I never really got to see them much.

- Oh, wow.
- Maybe once or twice a year in San Diego.

- Their parents are elsewhere?
- Working.

- They work in San Diego.
- Oh, I see.

You have to drive them
all the way over to San Diego?

- He has to go...
- Was it an 11-hour ride?

About eight hours.

- By car?
- Of course.

- You okay doing that?
- It's a little tiring.

It can't be just a little tiring.

But I'm so thankful
to Unexpected Business.

- We get to be with them.
- We never got to spend time with them.

Maybe once a year?

My son would come here for a week
when he goes on work leave.

- They stay with us for maybe three days.
- I see.

They'd leave to travel other places.

THIS ELDER SIMPLY
HAD TO WORK DILIGENTLY

BEING THE EMPLOYEE THAT HE WAS
AT THIS MARKET

TENDING TO HIS RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR MANY YEARS…

I never had the chance to be with them.

I took this opportunity
to spend some time with them here.

- Precious moments.
- Yes.

MAKING MEMORIES
WITH HIS GRANDSONS

ON THIS UNEXPECTED VACATION

You must be glad to see them.

- What? Today?
- She came today.

- At 9:00 a.m.
- Oh, she came real early.

YOUNGER ONE'S DIGGING
FOR CRAB MEAT

He's taking forever with that.

Goodness. This kid knows how to eat crab.

He's solely focused on eating.

SLICES IT IN HALF

THEN, DIGS IT OUT

YUM-YUM

Is there any more meat to dig out?

He's persistent.
There must be more meat in there.

- Yes, there's more in there.
- What'd you eat with your parents?

SLIPS OUT!

Wow. You were right, kid.

WHAT MATTERS IS
AN INDOMITABLE SPIRIT

- That was a huge chunk. Okay.
- Oh, wow.

- I should make them some at home.
- What a relief.

Who knew they'd like crab this much?

We wouldn't know,
since we don't live together.

PLEASE REMEMBER
THAT I LIKE SNOW CRABS, GRANDPA

MEANWHILE, AJOONG IS LEFT ALONE
AT THE PLACE OF EXILE

SHE'S QUICK! LOOKING
PRETTY MUCH LIKE A PRO NOW…

PERHAPS SHE'S ENJOYING
HER TIME IN EXILE?

Yay... Oh, I'm out of rice.

STARTS MIXING RIGHT AWAY

Yay!

SHE MUST BE THE TYPE THAT HAS
MORE FUN WHEN SHE'S LEFT ALONE…

LOOKS LIKE SHE
MIGHT EVEN BE ABLE

TO RUN THE KIMBAP CORNER ALONE

Hello, do you sell meat by any chance?

- Meat?
- Yes.

HE'S ASKING FOR MEAT…

- Today is my first day.
- I see.

I'll ask... What kind of meat?

Oh, we're going to make bulgogi.

- You're making bulgogi?
- Yes.

HIS KOREAN SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD?

Yes, so we need thinly sliced meat.

JUST THEN, TAEHYUN RETURNS

I doubt we sell them.

- Do you sell sliced meat.
- Which one?

- I mean, raw meat.
- We don't have raw meat.

- Oh, you don't?
- Wait, your Korean's so good?

Wait, your Korean's so good?

- What are you playing at?
- Well, this is sudden.

This is so ridiculous.
He didn't speak a lick of Korean earlier.

- And my friend...
- Speaking Korean for Ajoong?

Well, my friend was right next to me.

Wow, this guy.

Wow. You didn't speak any Korean
when you were over there!

- Really?
- He wouldn't have understood us then.

HE STILL DOESN'T, THOUGH…

Wow, you're seriously totally fluent?

What a twist.

Oh, my goodness…

Anyway, we don't sell raw meat.

We only sell frozen meat.

- Frozen meat?
- Yeah, the…

WE'LL TAKE FROZEN MEAT

- Shall we have a look?
- Yes.

This is all the meat we have.

HE PULLS OUT
TWO PACKS OF FROZEN MEAT

THE CUSTOMER RETURNS TO AJOONG

Do you have something
like oligosaccharide?

- Oligosaccharide?
- Yes.

Oligosaccharide…

This corner has all the seasonings.

THEY BOTH GO TO
THE SEASONING CORNER

LOOKING THOROUGHLY

- I'll try someplace else.
- Okay, sure.

- I'll ask around too.
- Oh, no need.

- Oh, gosh...
- No need for that. I'd hate to...

Look at that guy. Look at him.

Please come here, sir.

Get over here, you!
Insung wants you to come here.

Please come!

- Come here, please.
- Whoa, he's Korean?

You only spoke to me in English
the whole time.

You know he kept talking
to Ajoong in Korean?

- I caught him.
- Wow.

Well, aren't you a funny one?

You're placing your order in English?
To us?

I'm sorry.

My friend can't speak Korean.

- Your friend can't, but you can.
- Boy, aren't you a righteous one?

But we didn't talk much.

That's why I didn't talk to you!

Because you kept speaking English.

He loves to talk!
You know how much he loves to talk?

Gosh, I'm sorry.

- It's because he's so busy.
- Come again next time.

Speak in Korean when you come.

- Okay.
- Goodbye!

AFTER THE COMMOTION…

How cute.

So you work here too.

Do you also work here, ma'am?

- Yes.
- I work on Tuesdays and Fridays.

SHE WORKS PART-TIME SHIFTS

You must know this place well.

I take care of the stock
and make the kimbap.

You also make japchae.

How do you make japchae here?

The owner of the market is
very quick-witted.

That's right.

He also makes kimchi.

We make kimchi three times a week.

Wow.

HE'S AMAZED
JUST HEARING ABOUT IT

The owner of this place is amazing.

He doesn't even take a day off.

- He does the work himself.
- Exactly.

That's why I... I just can't believe it.

He takes one day off a year.
On January 1st.

OPEN 364 DAYS A YEAR

He didn't at first,
but he started a few years ago.

Earlier, someone said…

I told her that the owner was on vacation.

She said, "I don't think
he's ever been on vacation."

She said it's probably his first vacation.

It's probably his first.

That's how we are also spending time
with our grandchildren. Thanks to you.

Do you only work here then?

Or do you have another job?

A piano academy.

Do you run a piano academy?

- You're the director?
- Yes.

ISN'T SHE AMAZING?

How many students come here?

My students...
Well, there was Shakira and Kai.

Everyone? I see.

- They're all her students.
- She is the director of a piano academy.

Oh, piano?

MANY STUDENTS
ATTENDED HER PIANO ACADEMY

But I've been doing it for 30 years now.

I just closed the piano academy.

You're retired now? Why?

It's been 30 years.

And… I just…

I'd been thinking about taking a break.

AN OLD PIANO ACADEMY IN MARINA

MANY MEMORIES EXIST HERE,
A MEDAL OF HONOR OF HER LIFE

Over here…

LAST SUMMER, ON AUGUST 8TH,
SOME TIME DURING OUR SHOOT

THE LAST LESSON AT
THE PIANO ACADEMY TOOK PLACE

ALTHOUGH THE CHILDREN'S MELODIES

THEY WILL THINK OF THIS PLACE
FROM TIME TO TIME

EVEN WHEN THEY'RE OLDER

A LONG CHAT AT THE MARKET

We're here.

You have to come here when you come to LA.

I wonder what's so delicious here.

This is...
Well, it's not going to be easy, you know.

IT'S NOT GOING TO BE EASY~

Wow.

LET'S START WITH THE MENU!

What's the most popular one?

I think there should be a combo.

- The "galbi and sundubu combo."
- Oh, this must be it.

This one called "entry combo."

It's a combo style.

Hello.

We'll order.

I'll have the seafood sundubu.

The kimchi sundubu, and make it spicy.

ORDER COMPLETE

I'm looking forward to it.

This is where the chair store began.

I wonder how good it will be.

LOL

I can't help but smile.

IT'S ALWAYS JOYFUL
TO WAIT FOR FOOD

- Hi.
- Hello.

Oh, croaker.

+ KIMCHI

Thank you.

A FULLY SET TABLE IN NO TIME

KYUNGHO TRIES
THE FAMILIAR EOMUK FIRST

YUM

I tried the eomuk. It's good.

- But I can't stop thinking about kimbap.
- You need to roll more.

- You can't break it.
- I won't.

It's hard to roll then.

YUMMY~

It's geotjeori.

- Wow, it's delicious.
- Yes.

I know we've been eating
Korean food here...

- Feels like Korea here, right?
- Yes.

It's quite heartwarming.

Wow. Shall I try the soup?

Wow.

BLOWING

Oh, wow!

Wow.

WOW~!

TAKES A BITE OF THE TOFU

YUM~

It's so delicious.

- It's quite addictive.
- Yes.

HE'S IN AWE~!

I don't need the rice because
the soup is so good.

It doesn't taste different
just because we're in the US.

It tastes like
the best restaurant in Korea.

The kind that people line up for.

I want to order another one after this.

With some soft tofu on the side.

We have to try the galbi too.

It's here. It's here!

Wow, that sure is a lot.

- Thank you.
- Please enjoy.

Wow, this is insane.

I wish I had a bigger appetite,
but I can't eat as much as it seems.

GOTTA HAVE LA GALBI IN LA

It's been nonstop for us.

Yes.

A BIG BITE

The ones on the bone are really good.
There's no fat.

So this is what
the original LA ribs are like?

Oh, LA galbi in LA?

UP NEXT IS GALBI + RICE

You know your food!

TAKES A BIG BITE

UP NEXT IS KIMCHI + GALBI + RICE

I forgot I was eating this.

THE ULTIMATE STEP,
GALBI + SCORCHED RICE

Gotta add the water in the end.

…GALBI IS LOVE…!

You know what gets me mad
when I eat something really good?

- The fact that I'm getting full.
- Totally.

Your palate is still going
but your stomach isn't.

Glad we got to eat this before leaving.

- You're right.
- Yes.

It's the best meal I had here so far.

- Right?
- Yes.

LA GALBI IS THE BEST IN LA!

That was good.

- That was so good.
- Let's go.

MEANWHILE, IN THE KIMBAP CORNER

It's so nice making kimbap, Taehyun.

I think this is the easiest job.

You won't be coming here
starting tomorrow.

No way!

You'll be over there the whole time.

WHILE MR. CHA AND AJOONG ARE
MAKING KIMBAP WHILE CHATTING,

YOUNG-LOOKING CUSTOMERS

- Yes.
- Yes, you are.

I think I know Korean.

- No, I know Japanese.
- No, you don't.

I know Japanese, not Korean.

EVEN THE SMALLEST JOKES
MAKE THEM LAUGH

You speak Korean, right?

I can speak Korean, but they can't...

- They can't, but you can?
- Yes.

- I speak just a little.
- It's okay.

All ramyeon?

Yes.

It might be a bit spicy. Is that okay?

You guys want it spicy?

Hello.

WELCOME DRINKS
FOR OUR TEENAGE FRIENDS

- Okay, thank you.

SHE GOT YOU, LOL

PRETTY KYEONGRIM TEACHES THEM
KOREAN AND MAKES THEM LAUGH

I like how all of you guys didn't get it
because you can't understand Korean.

You know, it was really funny to me.

It means "very pretty."

Like, if you say yeppeuda by itself.

That's your opinion. Yeppeuda.

That's what I thought too.

EMPTY!

We were in a rush just earlier.

- It's quiet now.
- Another rush happens later today.

- Really?
- It's sudden.

Remember the line from earlier?
The customers are all gone now.

- I see.
- People eat now and take some rest.

But after they eat,
they come back for groceries.

I thought it was going to be
super busy all day, so I was so worried.

You were worried?

- I thought, "What do I do?"
- Come here.

- Sit here for a second.
- Okay.

You need to rest while you can.

- Rest for a bit.
- Really? I might finish up on the kimbap.

- Just finish that up.
- Okay.

LET ME FINISH UP THE KIMBAP

WORKING HARD

Can you make a cup of tea for Ajoong?

It seems like she barely drank anything.

- I see.
- She knows how to take care of herself.

- What?
- No need to worry about her.

She does everything herself.
Eating, drinking, and more.

Really?

She made herself onigiri
and was caught while eating it.

I thought she wasn't eating
or drinking anything.

- But I see.
- I got her some water earlier too.

Then give me some water.

- Warm water?
- Yes, warm.

Okay, thank you.

I guess Ajoong drank some water, huh?

- Yes.
- So cute.

KYEONGRIM TAKES CARE OF
AJOONG FIRST THEN DRINKS WATER

- Is it okay?
- Perfect. It's lukewarm.

Bring Ajoong here now.

THEY'RE ABOUT TO TAKE AJOONG
OUT OF KIMBAP HELL

Ajoong keeps hiding over there.

Hold on.

MR. CHA SETS OFF
TO GET AGENT AJOONG

What? She's not here again.

Yes? I'm here!

Hey, Ajoong.

CAUTIOUS

- Let me fix my makeup and go.
- Sure.

Why are you laughing?

- What's wrong?
- She got caught fixing her makeup again.

I see.

- Why are you giving her a hard time?
- I mean, it's so strange.

I'm not even trying
to give her a hard time.

She did a lot of work today,

so I was gonna get her
out of kimbap hell, but she wasn't there.

Where was she?

She was in the lounge, fixing her makeup.

Gosh. Wow, Ajoong.

She's a new character we haven't seen.

IT'S AN EMPLOYEE'S DUTY
TO LOOK NEAT!

DELICIOUS DAEGE RAMYEON IS READY

- Who ordered that one?
- Thank you.

- I know what kimchi is, Ethan.
- Huh?

I know what kimchi is.

I never said you didn't know
what kimchi was.

Spicy?

Are you okay?

NODS

JUHWAN OPENS UP THE FRIDGE
QUIETLY

- Thank you.

SWEET RED BEAN ICE CREAM
ON THE HOUSE

TAKES A BITE

- That was good.
- I liked the ramyeon.

Oh, yeah. I'm gonna
save this one for Cater

because it's gonna
cool down your tongue a lot.

This is really good.

I actually really like it.

JESUS…

I like it. I love it.

- I'm glad you like it.
- It's delicious. I want more.

It's huge.

Tell them to bring out the napa cabbage.

They must've not put out
all the napa cabbages.

I should ask for some.

- Please bring out the napa cabbages.
- Sure.

- Hello.
- Hi.

- Napa cabbages?
- Yes.

JUST IN TIME, MR. CHA
WAS ON HIS WAY TO GET KIMBAP

They're looking for napa cabbages.

Napa cabbages?

This isn't enough.

- You want more?
- Yes.

Then…

JUST GIVE ME A MOMENT…

Is he gone?

MEANWHILE, THEY PICK OUT
FRESH NAPA CABBAGES

He's looking for them.

I'm glad they came while you're here, sir.

- They arrived on the same day.
- The same day.

They came in together.

And there was a person
waiting in the front.

Three rolls.

THE CART IS FULL OF
NAPA CABBAGES

SATISFIED

It's mine, right?

- Wow.
- The napa cabbages have gone bad.

- All the cabbages are bad?
- Yes.

- What should we do?
- Don't forget this.

Then give us a discount.

A SUDDEN BARGAIN

Well, I guess I have no choice
but to give you a discount.

It's $19.47, but let's do $15.

BARGAIN SUCCESSFUL

It's mine.

- Where's mine?
- There.

Sorry.

Are you going to make kimchi with this?

- What are you making? Geotjeori?
- I'm making kimchi.

Can I put it in there right now?

AGENT AJOONG SENSIBLY HELPS
WITH THE CABBAGES

Oh, you're buying a lot.

HEAVILY PACKED

Where to? I'll move it for you.

Wow, the weather is so nice!

Be careful.

- Be careful.
- Be careful? Oh, I will.

FEELING THE COOL BREEZE
WHILE DELIVERING GROCERIES

- Throw it in there.
- Shall I just put it here?

AJOONG HELPS
PUT THEM IN THE CAR

- What about the kimbap?
- Put it here.

- In here?
- Yes.

You should eat it quickly
before it goes bad.

Okay, thank you.

- Drive safely... Oh, sure.
- Come here again with your friends.

Oh, this?

- I'll move it for you.
- It's okay.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

- There's quite...
- It's all mine.

Oh, that's mine.

- Here you go.
- There's more?

- Yes, here.
- Yes, I'll do it, ma'am.

AFTER SAFELY LOADING
ALL THE CABBAGES

Drive home safely.

- Could you take care of this?
- Yes, sure.

Drive home safely.

THEY THANK EACH OTHER
AND PART WAYS

JUST AS SHE PUTS THE CART
BACK IN PLACE

Hyojoo was here a little while ago.

It's heartbreaking
that her photo is all covered up.

Let's try this.

Wait, the one next to her
is Ms. Chae Sira.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

SHE RETURNS TO THE MARKET

AFTER SHE MOVES THE CARTS SO
THEY DON'T COVER THEIR FACES

I have Tums in the car.

GOTTA SHOWCASE MY SIGNATURE DISH

Especially for the chef's special, here.

NOW THAT THE ORDER'S IN

HE PREPARES THE DAEGE RAMYEON
JUST LIKE ANY OTHER DAY

So who is in the restaurant now?

- Your restaurant?
- His sous-chef.

- I see.
- Oh, there's a sous-chef.

And then we have the other cooks.
And then my wife.

- Oh, your wife?
- She should be there.

If she's not there, I'm gonna fire her.

Again! I fired her so many times.

My wife... I've fired her maybe…

four times?

- She also fired you.
- Yeah, she does... she fires me too.

They fire each other, huh?

- Okay. I know, I know.
- Okay.

"You're fired." "No, you're fired!"

"No, you're fired!"

- All that was in one time.
- Oh, yeah.

WHILE SHAHEEN, THE OWNER,
TELLS HIS STORY,

THE DAEGE RAMYEON
GETS READY TO BE SERVED

- Two more. Wow, it's coming up!
- That quick?

- It's almost.
- They really know what you're gonna get.

- Are you guys excited?
- Yeah, I'm actually really excited.

- Let me introduce my chef.
- Okay.

FEELING THE PRESSURE

- He is usually very so nice man.
- Okay?

But

he shows great charisma…

than anyone else in the kitchen!

- Oh, okay?
- So!

HIGH IN ANTICIPATION

That's a bit much, no?

So, he is god of king crab ramyeon!

IT'S NOT "KING CRAB," ACTUALLY

Please welcome my chef!

PLEASE GIVE A HAND TO MY CHEF

- That's right! That's right!
- All about the vibe.

Oh, yes. You gotta…

PERFORMANCE SUCCESS

Gotta give it a little Salt Bae.

- Thank you.
- Thank you, Chef.

- Enjoy.
- Thank you.

- Looks great.
- I'm excited.

I'm excited too.

IT'S LOOKING TASTY AS ALWAYS

- Okay.
- So, first…

THE CHEF TRIES THE SOUP FIRST

- King crab?
- It's like king crab.

That's, uh, snow crab.

CHEF MAC GUESSES
THE EXACT KIND OF CRAB IN IT

It's just a little spicy.

It's like fermented chili paste, right?

Yeah, it's Korean spicy paste.

The ramyeon.

Different regions,
it's a little different.

TIME TO TASTE THE NOODLES

It's really rich.

They must really like it.

- Korean-style ramyeon.
- Very good.

MR. ZO SEEMS MORE NERVOUS TO BE
COOKING FOR A PROFESSIONAL CHEF

Chef, how is it?

- It's very good. Yeah.
- It's very good?

SHAHEEN THE OWNER
ENJOYS KIMCHI TOO

This kimchi looks spicy.

Yes, kimchi is spicy.

But it's very good for your health.

My son, he's two years old.
We give him kimchi.

- Oh?
- Really?

MR. ZO IS THINKING HARD
ABOUT SOMETHING

Should I give them some jeotgal?

- We do have seasoned cucumbers.
- That too.

MR. ZO WANTS TO SHOWCASE
MORE KOREAN FOOD

- I'll bring them... Okay.
- Stir-fried anchovies too.

JUHWAN BRINGS OUT
THE CONTAINER OF BANCHAN

HE PLATES THE SEASONED CUCUMBERS
AND STIR-FRIED ANCHOVIES

FROM THE KOREAN RESTAURANT OWNER

It's side dish for you guys.

PLEASE TRY THESE BANCHAN

- Small fish?
- Yes, small fish.

THE OWNER & CHEF
TAKE AN INTEREST

What's anchovies in English? What was it?

We talked about it yesterday.

In English... Anchovies!

- Small anchovies, baby anchovies.
- Baby, baby.

- Hot pepper sauce.
- It's not sour.

It's not... It's not sour.

- That's really good.
- Yeah, it's really good.

But then you fry it, right?

And then dress it in something.

Soy…

THEY BOTH TRY TO GUESS
HOW THEY WERE MADE

As expected of a chef
and restaurant owner.

- The recipe is what they focus on.
- Little bit... Like a…

Little acid in there.

FASCINATED

And oil, fry.

MR. ZO TRIES TO BE INFORMATIVE
AS THE KOREAN FOOD PRO HERE

- Fried, huh?
- Yeah, fried. Oil-fried.

What's the name of this?

- This one? Myeolchi bokkeum.
- Yeah.

- He must really like this.
- Korean stir-fried anchovies.

- That's right.
- Yeah, yeah.

SHAHEEN SEARCHES IT UP
RIGHT AWAY

Myeolchi bokkeum?

- Myeolchi bokkeum.
- Myeolchi bokkeum, yeah.

Pronunciation good.

They're looking at the recipe first.

They run their own restaurant,
so they're reading the recipe first.

So they give to children
in their lunch box, huh?

- That's right.
- Yeah.

MR. ZO LEAVES HIS SPOT SUDDENLY

That's why
I think they should try it with rice.

Dry, sharp taste.

Okay, my chef. Why don't you eat
the myeolchi bokkeum with rice.

It's good match.

- Like they're not vinegar.
- Right.

SWEET, FRAGRANT STIR-FIRED
ANCHOVIES ON WARM WHITE RICE

Is it good? How is it?

THIS CAN'T NOT BE TASTY

It's a great matching.

Come have you teach my geniuses.

He's really into stir-fried anchovies.

People tend to take a liking
to different dishes.

WHILE THE OWNER & THE CHEF
ENJOYS THEIR MEAL

TAILORED TO MR. ZO'S SUGGESTIONS

He'll love it
if you give this to him as a gift.

HE BRINGS KOREAN ANCHOVIES AND
ALCOHOL TO GIVE THEM AS GIFTS

Alcohol and myeolchi.
