(1 year later)
I'm most frightened...
when a firm rule of mine is broken.
What!
Move, move. Sorry. I'm late.
- What was that? - Sorry.
Hey! Darn it.
Jin Mi, you...
Also...
Sorry, I forgot to flush it.
When I face an unexpected crisis.
What are you all doing? Come out and have breakfast.
Okay.
San Hae, hurry out for breakfast.
Goodness.
That was gross.
That's unusual of you. You slept in?
What, is it gomtang again? How sickening.
You know I'm busy with my publication work.
Even so,
don't you think it's too much to eat gomtang for a month?
Hey.
You know it's not easy to make breakfast every morning.
Whatever, you don't have to eat. Give it back.
- Give it back. - I'm eating to survive, all right?
Don't eat it.
When I can't say a word...
to an oppressive reality.
See how nice you look.
- I gained weight? - Didn't you know?
It's because you feed me gomtang all the time.
It's because you never exercise.
You're annoying.
Wait.
But they're nothing compared to this one.
It's me, Mr. Han.
You surprised me. That's not what you should do first in the morning.
It was almost time to be at the office, but you weren't here.
So I was waiting for you.
What if others see us?
You're the one who's late.
It's all because of you though.
- Why is it because of me? - My life pattern got mixed up,
talking with you on the phone until late hours.
I even slept in and came late.
So you don't like it?
I didn't say I hated it. I was just saying.
We might be late. Let's go.
You set me on fire and that's it?
Then what?
Mr. Han.
We shouldn't do this here.
We aren't supposed to do it here.
What frightens me the most though, is this belated love.
(Last Episode: Love Fool)
It really does frighten me.
Understood, ma'am. Goodbye.
Good morning.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Hello.
Hello, Mr. Han.
Hello.
We've been dating in secret for a year like this.
Seung Ah.
About this report...
Are you sick?
What? Why do you ask?
Is it because your lips are so colorless? You look sick.
Well, my lips strangely feel drier than usual today,
so I've been licking my lips.
I think that's why my lipstick got removed.
Anyway, go through the parts that I marked,
and send the revised version to me.
Okay.
(Congratulations, Seung Ah.)
Attention, everyone.
Last month, Mr. Han became the Salesperson of the Month...
with a difference of two deals.
This month, we have a new Salesperson of the Month...
with a difference of just one deal.
Seung Ah, congratulations.
Thank you.
Goodness.
What are you doing?
What a bummer.
I guess Mr. Han feels very bad.
Don't feel too bad.
There's only a deal difference between you two.
And the last one in the rankings...
is you, Mr. Won.
Goodness.
How will you survive in this industry like that?
You'll be 40 in no time,
but you'll never get promoted even if you turn 50 at this rate.
What if Seung Ah gets promoted first?
You won't be able to...
support your family like this.
I'm seriously worried...
what kind of woman you'll end up with.
I'll work harder.
Well, you're always all talk.
And Seung Ah, here's your incentive prize...
for becoming the Salesperson of the Month.
Thank you.
I'm reminded of myself whenever I see you.
You and I are similar.
Speaking of which, we're having a very important customer today.
He was a VIP in his former branch,
but he's moving to our branch.
Mr. Han and Seung Ah,
you aces should go ahead and consult him today.
- Okay. - Yes, ma'am.
That's all.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Thank you.
Bin, did you hear?
- Hear what? - I heard...
there's a company couple in our branch.
- What? - What?
- Really? - A company couple?
- For real? - Really?
- Are you sure? - Who's dating?
- What is this about? - Gather up, guys.
They were caught by the radar eyes...
of this cleaning lady.
Then it's 100 percent sure.
They made such a scene at the parking lot in the morning.
There's something stuck on your eye.
- My eye? - Close your eyes.
- Close them? - Yes.
What if others see us?
There's no one around.
You're right. There's no one.
They even got all lovey-dovey at the pantry too.
The pantry?
- Oh, my. - That's my wish.
What if others see us?
They're all in the meeting room.
The general manager will be mad if she finds out about this.
- You want some? - Something sweet.
Chocolate cookie?
No, this.
That's not all.
Even in the general manager's meeting room too.
- What? - Seriously?
Are you tired?
A little.
Should we take a break then?
Mr. Han, let me do it.
Come on.
(General Manager Lee Na Young)
How dare they do such a thing at her sacred meeting room?
Did you see it yourself?
No, I didn't.
But rumors are rampant in the company.
Will we be all right?
Don't worry. Let's hold up until we can.
You shouldn't spread speculative rumors like this.
If you have time for this,
go consult customers.
Goodness.
But it's not speculative.
It's said that they often kiss each other at the emergency stairs,
and it sounds almost like an R rated movie.
- An R rated movie? - Yes.
What kind of sound do they make?
- Like this? - No, not that.
Then what?
- This? - No.
It's necessary to be shameless to keep a secret.
Jeong Sik, I'm done washing the vegetables.
It looks delicious.
My younger brother is the best at cooking indeed.
I'm putting my heart into this...
so that my dear sister can enjoy it.
Sometimes, a fake relationship is necessary.
These siblings, Jin Mi and Jeong Sik,
are receiving a lot of public support these days.
Unlike other siblings, they're very friendly to each other.
- They love each other so much... - Thank you.
they can't stand being apart.
(An Ordinary Day of a Celebrity Twin Sibling)
Jeong Sik!
Do you want to get beaten up?
Why did you turn off the warm water in the bathroom?
That's why you shouldn't have stayed in the bathroom for so long.
And stop using your constipation as an excuse.
You were in there for an hour.
Do you know how frustrating it feels?
I'm more frustrated than you are. Get out of my way, Ms. Constipation.
I'm going to kill you. Get over here!
- Hey! Get over here! - Darn it.
I have a fan meeting later. Stop ruining my sweater.
I'll make a wrap for you.
I'll make one for you as well.
What a bunch of nonsense.
- I'm going to kill you. - I love you.
Me too.
What's wrong with you? I need to go to a book signing later!
A book signing? You're so full of yourself.
Who do you think you are?
- It hurts. - Gosh.
Hey, I'm going to tell everyone that you're dating Min Hyuk.
What?
- It hurts. - My brother...
is the best YouTuber when it comes to cooking.
So he's very supportive of me, and he helps me out a lot.
- We're twins, so we think alike. - Don't you have a live show today?
So we never fight.
- We're like soulmates... - I'll stop here for now.
because we share everything with each other.
- He's right. - There you go.
Tell me what you know.
I summarized what I heard about today's VIP customer.
He has 2 sons and 1 daughter.
- What else? - He has a great sense of fashion...
and is a famous gourmet.
He's a Korean food lover who only goes to alley restaurants.
A Korean food lover? If he's a gourmet who loves Korean food...
and goes to alley restaurants, that means he's pretty old.
We'll have to choose an adequate place to meet him.
There's one more.
He needs to take his kids to the academy,
so he prefers early afternoons.
And the daycare center is in Jongno, so he can only meet there.
Jongno? In Jongno, there's Ikseon-dong, Samcheong-dong...
We can also consider Insa-dong.
That place is very popular these days, so I think it'll do.
No. Rather than choosing a Korean restaurant that's just really old,
we need to choose a place that looks old but offers great food.
Then what about...
Nagwon-dong?
Yes, Nagwon-dong sounds nice.
I'm impressed. The student has become a master.
We need to find a place that offers a filling meal for him.
He needs energy after all the child-rearing.
It needs to be a place that can impress the former gourmet...
and make him open up to us.
- Yes. That's the place. - Yes. That's the place.
(Han San Hae's Restaurant Bucket List: O Restaurant in Jongno)
This is a 20-year-old restaurant that's located inside a marketplace.
The owner's recipe from Gangwon Province...
met with the employees' secret recipes from Jeolla Province.
It's like a rest area where people meet.
It's a popular restaurant that's been visited...
by Bigbang, Kim Go Eun, Jung Hae In, and many more.
Jung Hae In, who's really popular among older women,
apparently ate two servings here.
You're very interested in him.
- No, that's not it. - Mr. Han San Hae.
Y2K, 2!
Pirates
Alley
I like how you wanted to meet me...
in the alley.
- Dad. - Hey.
Come here.
The kids were done with the academy, so I brought them with me.
Is that okay?
Of course.
You're very stylish...
even though you're a father.
You're even wearing a backpack.
No, this is not a backpack.
It's my youngest child.
- I'm sorry. - It's okay.
It's understandable.
You're really cool.
Should we order first?
Sure.
(Set menu, Special menu)
What kind of menu would a famous gourmet choose?
- Cheonggukjang? - The fastest menu available.
I need to eat quickly before they start whining.
If you eat with your kids,
you don't even know if you're swallowing your food or not.
The exhilarating feeling of eating quietly because you don't want...
your kids to wake up is just like...
secretly eating ramyeon in the army.
It's like secretly eating your lunch during class.
Then I'll go place an order.
Can I take a look at the new model?
We have a new SUV model you can ride with your kids.
Here you go.
It's a car.
Dad, I like the blue one.
The blue one...
is too dangerous.
No, I want the blue one.
If we ride the blue car,
a tiger will come and eat us alive.
We also have a blue SUV.
This SUV...
- is very sturdy... - My goodness.
- Oh, gosh. - Why can't you stay still?
You shouldn't eat that.
- Stop it. - You can't eat this.
This is dirty. It's dirty.
- Right? - Yes, it's dirty.
Gosh, this is... This is so chaotic.
I'll give you a short summary. This SUV is the best...
Dad, I farted. I farted.
Goodness, did you fart?
Do you want to go take a poop?
Dad, I want to go outside.
This place is suffocating.
- Let's go outside. - Come on.
I don't like it here.
- It's hot. - I need to pee.
This place is so suffocating.
I feel suffocated as well.
Who wants to go with me...
to the bathroom to pee?
- Me! - Me!
The person who gets to the bathroom first will win the gold medal.
- I want the gold medal. - Me too.
Goodness.
I'll spend some time outside with the kids.
Raising three kids really isn't easy.
You should eat first.
(Cheonggukjang Stew: 8 dollars)
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E31 Jang Geum, Oh My Grandma "Seung Ah and San Hae Meet Their VIP" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
I heard the rice here is enough to beat all the restaurants,
and it was true.
This place cooks rice over 15 times a day...
in order to serve just-cooked rice to the customers.
They even have a separate employee for cooking rice.
They use rice that just got polished from the market...
which makes it more fresh and delicious.
And they wash it just enough so the rice doesn't get ruined.
Then they leave it in running water to enhance the taste by 200 percent.
By leaving it in water for over two hours,
they made it taste like pot-boiled rice.
It tastes just like the moist rice I used to have when I was little.
Let's try the cheonggukjang stew this time.
I guess they really do use Korean cheonggukjang.
They mixed rich cheonggukjang made with whole beans...
and light cheonggukjang made with mashed beans.
They came up with a perfect ratio.
They added manila clams to anchovy stock.
And in order to maintain the taste of cheonggukjang,
they used fried kimchi seasoned with salt rather than salted seafood...
which makes it taste even better.
Y2K, 2!
I'm the pirate disco king.
Here I go.
You, Yo.
I'm bringing the new flavor.
This rice I'm having by myself
- Is nicely cooked - And amazing
It's just-cooked, so it's very moist
And delicious
I want to eat it with cheonggukjang
- And I want to have two servings - Add more rice again and again
I think this place makes the best cheonggukjang ever
The block of fermented soybeans, what wonderful flavor it is
Stir-fried kimchi makes it tastier
Eating it will make your mouth water
- Hey you and hey you - Come on everybody say!
Cheonggukjang
- Hit it - Cheonggukjang
Cheonggukjang
- Cheonggukjang - Cheonggukjang, hit it
Cheonggukjang
- Hit it - Cheonggukjang
- Cheonggukjang
I heard of the rumors about you.
You sure do have a great palate.
I give the cheonggukjang here a thumbs-up.
- That's a relief. - Dad!
Dad!
Kids, come and have a seat.
Did you have fun?
Yes, we had fun!
Did you enjoy your meal?
It's been so long since...
I've enjoyed a meal like a normal human being.
I've only been eating the leftovers from my kids,
shoving food in my mouth in a hurry.
Thank you so much.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Did you enjoy your meal?
What was your name again?
It's Bok Seung Ah.
Thanks to you, I was able to enjoy a decent meal.
Well, I had a great time...
with your children as well.
I feel bad that you haven't been able...
to stay active because of your kids.
That's not the case.
To be honest, raising my children...
is better than seeking out restaurants.
Still, today's delicious meal...
has been a delightful treat.
To show you my gratitude,
I'd love to buy a car that you recommend.
Judging by how good you are with kids,
I'm sure you'll know what'll be best for our family.
Of course.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Dad, I'm sleepy.
Me too.
Is that so? All right.
Let's go then. It's almost your bedtime now.
It's their bedtime,
so I must get going.
Take care.
I'll see you when we sign the contract.
We should meet at a kids cafe.
Until then.
Take care.
A clean flavor made without any artificial seasoning.
Let's go.
The dish warmed up the heart of a father of three.
And the added delight of signing a new client...
brings the score to...
(San Hae's Food Guide)
I give it four stars.
Anyway,
aren't you hungry?
I'm starving to death.
Then let's...
We barely have any time left,
so let's enjoy street food while going out on a date.
Would that be enough?
How are you going to do this?
Like this?
You should make it look cuter.
- Like this. - Oh, please.
This is way cuter.
No, this is cuter.
What on earth are they doing?
- You're so adorable! - No.
Why don't you try this too?
That's it.
- What are you doing? - What?
It's nothing.
Let's focus.
You're up.
Here we go.
Hi, guys.
"Show! Music Core".
Which artist is coming out of hiatus today?
It's A2B, the group that steals all women's hearts.
A2B, welcome.
Welcome.
In 3, 4.
- A2B. Hello, we're A2B. - A2B. Hello, we're A2B.
My Seong Jae, you look different now that you're with your group.
Is that so? Thanks, my Jin Mi.
"My Seong Jae"?
You're back with a new song in five months.
We'd like to hear what the song is about,
so please tell us about it.
"Only One for Me" is a love song...
about a man who is completely...
in love.
Then we must hear a snippet of it.
Heon Sik, could you sing us the song?
I can't live without you
You're the only one for me
- No matter what, you're the one - No matter what, you're the one
My gosh. That brought so many emotions.
That's right.
Min Hyuk, just like what it says in the song,
is there someone that is the only one for you?
- Sorry? - What?
I'm not sure. I guess...
I like someone with...
a sensitive sense of smell...
who knows master recipes at convenience stores.
That was very specific.
Is there a celebrity who fits that description?
- Sorry? - What?
What?
I'm not sure.
I've never thought about that.
It's...
you.
What on earth was that?
My ideal woman is you as well!
I like you too.
My ideal woman is you too.
Y, O, U, you.
Me?
I guess I have to say...
that you guys are the only ones for me too.
Here is A2B with...
- "Only One for Me". - "Only One for Me".
Good job, everyone.
- Thank you. - Thanks!
- We're A2B. - Thank you.
Please wish us well.
What are we going to do?
I think it'll all work out.
Hold on.
Are you out of your minds?
"You"?
Seriously?
Is that how it'll be at interviews?
Unbelievable.
We stopped you two from getting caught.
Why not just say you're seeing each other officially?
Not so loud.
- Why not just say it? - What?
Right, it was too cheesy.
I still can't get over it.
You guys are unbelievable.
And Seong Jae.
Why were you being all flirty with Jin Mi?
Stick to the script!
Keep it strictly business.
Yes, fine.
Mr. I-like-master-recipes,
I'll keep that in mind.
Darn.
Are you making fun of me?
Over there.
You all did great today.
- You too. - Thank you.
You did great as well.
I'll see you next week.
Sure.
I'm thirsty.
("I'm thirsty" means "I miss you".)
I'm thirsty too.
Where can I get some water?
Guys.
Here's some water.
- Give me that. - Me too.
Can I have a bottle too?
Thank you.
There's not one for Min Hyuk.
I'm sorry,
but could you get us another bottle?
Sure.
Thank you.
- Gosh... - Have mine.
How can he be so clueless?
He's loving it so much.
Hey!
You don't get nosebleeds these days.
Don't I make your heart flutter anymore?
Is it because...
of Seong Jae?
I'm not sure.
Maybe I'm much healthier now.
It's better that I don't get nosebleeds,
isn't it?
I was worried about all the bleeding,
but it felt good to know that...
I caused it.
Look here.
Is that so? Really?
There's more to love than just the excitement.
I wish to believe that love in the form...
of familiarity and comfort is also one's destiny.
Why don't we see if I can make your nose bleed?
Sometimes, a fated love...

Right.

- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Da Yeong? - Yes.
Have a great day.
- Here you go. - Just like an accident,
it comes at you from nowhere.
Gosh, that's hot.
I nearly burned my lips.
- Oh my goodness! - Oh shoot!
Gosh, that's hot!
Oh, no!
- Are you all right? - It burns!
I'm so sorry.
You don't seem to be burned though.
- Are you all right? - Yes, I'm fine.
You're all right?
Yes.
I got in these heels to look good today.
I'm so sorry about this.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
If you're that sorry, could we perhaps shake hands?
With our left hands.
Sure, I'm a huge fan.
This place is amazing at baking bread.
We should've bought enough amount.
You're eating more after that?
You had an eating competition with your customer earlier,
but I had to babysit his children. I'm physically exhausted right now.
Go on.
It's delicious.
Buy me that one too.
All right, let's eat.
It's good.
- Is it that good? - Yes.
I love fish-shaped buns.
By the way, didn't the customer and his children look so much alike?
Like father, like children after all.
You were good at babysitting back there.
- That was unexpected. - I'm the type of person...
who gets loved by everyone regardless of gender and age.
Those children looked adorable though.
It'd be great...
if I have about three children after getting married...
and live in a neighborhood where they sell fish-shaped buns.
Three children aren't too bad,
but let's not have twins.
Yes, hello. How are you?
It's already time to renew the contract?
How much do you have in mind for renewing?
What, 30,000 dollars?
That much?
It can't be helped then.
Okay, bye.
What is it about?
My lease contract expires this coming March.
She wants a raise of 30,000 dollars.
I had to get a loan...
to pay for the lease as is.
I should move out, right?
It really is a bit in a rush.
Right?
There are so many houses in the world,
but none of them are mine.
How frustrating is this?
March it is.
What do you mean?
Our wedding.
This is...
a temporary shackle.
Mr. Han.
I'll get a house in a neighborhood with fish-shaped buns.
It's so sudden.
But this isn't a proposal, is it?
I don't know.
I need an answer first.
I'll give it some thought.
A proposal shouldn't be sloppy and unprepared like this.
Oh, I'm sorry. That was thoughtless of me.
Let me take it back.
You can't take back what's already given.
I want you to do me an official proposal though.
I'm not some easy girl who accepts...
I love you.
Will you marry me?
Yes.
(Coming soon)
- I'm getting married. - What?
Mr. Han is the one from those rumors?
This is crazy. "Min Hyuk of A2B..."
"left a mysterious note on a microwave in a convenience store."
"What is the note about?"
- Isn't this you? - He's right.
- Let me see. - It's real.
By the way, I thought you had dinner exactly at 7pm.
You guys aren't doing it anymore?
I love you.
Will you marry me?
Being with you here...
reminds me of our first kiss...
in front of the ice-skating rink.
That wasn't our first kiss.
What?
Then when?
My gosh.
You can't say that bump...
was our first kiss.
I'm not saying that is.
Then what?
Well...
In the infirmary?
Don't you remember that?
I guess you don't.
The infirmary?
Did I kiss him in the infirmary?
That wasn't a dream?
My gosh!
Mr. Han!
Why are you only telling me this now?
I bet my lips were super dry.
Gosh, I was really sick that day.
Hello.
Since your agency confiscated your phone,
I hid one at the convenience store.
Make sure you find it.
Nice.
Let's do this.
(Ingredients for Hush! It's a Secret.)
First, crush up sweet-meal biscuits in a clear plastic bag.
Next, prepare banana slices.
Pour a layer of biscuit crumbs you crushed up earlier,
add four spoons of strawberry jam that's as sweet as me,
and pour as much plain yogurt you want.
Pour another layer of biscuit crumbs...
and decorate the dish with nuts and banana slices.
There you have...
Jin Mi's master recipe for "Hush! It's a Secret."
It's really good.
This is terrible.
I don't want to go into the office.
You didn't forget dinner at my place today, right?
Of course, not.
Then where should we have a secret rendezvous today?
Since we'll be on our way home,
in front of the pharmacy after the intersection?
No. That's a main street.
How about behind Pillar 25 in the basement parking lot?
Ms. Lee almost caught us then.
It's dangerous.
How about meeting up...
at the hotteok place around our company building's corner?
We won't be caught there.
I'll go out before you.
Come out after five minutes.
Mr. Han.
Why the long face?
I can't do this anymore. Let's stop this.
Stop what?
Dating in secret.
We should just tell everyone and date in public without worries.
But if Ms. Lee finds out...
We're bound to face it once anyway.
I'm in. We must strike while the iron is hot.
We should go in and tell everyone now.
If I have to face the beating, I'd rather do it now and end it.
Since I'm going to your house today,
we should tell your family that we are getting married too.
Will you be okay with that?
Mr. Han San Hae. You'd better brace yourself.
Yes, General Bok.
Let's move.
Just like a sudden shower that comes out of the blue,
there is a kind of love that no one saw coming.
- I have something to tell... - I will...
go first.
Everyone,
I'm getting married!
- What? - What?
What are you doing? Aren't you going to congratulate me?
- Right. Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Congratulations.
But with whom?
With me.
- What? - No way.
- Unbelievable. - Shocking.
Then the couple in secret was...
- you... - And Mr. Won?
Bin. Bin. Bin!
- Are you all right? - Hello? Who are you? Where am I?
- You scared me. - Gosh.
Your hair...
No one is here, right?
- Wait, how did that happen? - Since when?
Shall we call it the destiny dakbal brought together?
To be precise, I think it started since the fried tofu rice balls.
Are fried tofu rice balls usually this sour?
- Oh, no. - It's coming out.
- It's coming out. It's coming out. - Run!
The stomachache romance...
was successful.
Stop it.
When is your wedding?
Hold on. Where are my manners?
(Lee Na Young and Won Bin)
It's next Saturday?
How could you get married so quickly?
Inside here...
A three-month baby is here.
- What? - What?
When did that happen? That was quick.
Actually, my private life...
is a top secret.
If you are so curious,
I can tell you a short version of how it happened.
This wriggler has gotten a place in a corner of my belly...
when we had our fifth dakbal date.
We had slightly spicy dakbal at the tented restaurant in Gongdeok.
We were going home after finishing a plate of dakbal.
My Bin looked at me...
with sweet eyes like Jung Woo Sung's.
I...
want to eat ramyeon.
I don't... I don't have ramyeon.
(Ramyeon)
My goodness.
Do you know what My Bin said then?
"Ms. Lee, do you want to eat ramyeon before you go?"
Seriously.
No, no. My Young.
You were pretty drunk that day.
That's not how it happened.
You said that you wanted to eat ramyeon.
But when I told you I didn't have any, you said to eat...
Anyway, we bought cup noodles at a convenience store.
We were eating ramyeon adding cheese in it too.
Bin said that he wanted to do a couple's shot.
Instead of drinking the shot, he kissed on my lips.
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E32 Jang Geum, Oh My Grandma "A Good Meal with Good People" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
- Ms. Lee! - Ms. Lee!
You startled me! Come on.
I see. That's how it happened!
- I see. - Okay.
Your love story is very touching.
What are you talking about?
I haven't even started.
Gosh, I made you all stand up and listen to this.
Let's sit down and have a brief chat.
- I got off the car... - Hello?
- Why did they send it so quickly? - Okay.
You're being respectful of our privacy.
Don't worry.
The story of my conception is a secret too.
By the way, I want to tell you this story, Jung Ha.
- She has to tell you that. - The first time...
- My mom is sick. - we were kissing...
- Your mom is sick? - You'll know since you're married.
Anyway, so we were kissing. Do you know what he said?
I have to tell this to Seung Ah.
- Fine. Tell everyone. - Seung Ah.
Bin's lips were so dry, but he kept trying to kiss me.
There's a tip for that. Do you know what it is?
What an interesting timing.
I'm so exhausted.
Why did San Hae tell everyone to come? What is this about?
I wanted to get rid of the beef bone soup leftovers.
Well, now that Jin Mi has a busy schedule,
she's been living off on bread.
Now that San Hae fell in love,
he'll be using up all of his energy.
At times like this...
Koreans live off of rice.
You don't need a lot of side dishes by just cooking your rice right.
A nicely grilled piece of ham...
on top of properly cooked rice.
Nicely seasoned salted fish.
Savory fried egg.
A nicely roasted piece of dried laver on top of rice.
All are perfect to eat with a bowl of rice.
If you want a more flavorful bowl of rice, you can add beansprouts,
sweet potatoes,
thistle,
oysters, or abalone and cook it together.
The moment you mix spicy soy sauce with your rice...
and put it in your mouth,
your belt will instantly come undone.
Today, I'm going to use mussels since they're in season right now.
And I'm going to cook these mussels with rice.
Mussels help prevent adult diseases and relieve hangovers.
And since many people have New Year gatherings these days,
it's perfect to cook side dishes or soup with them.
Now, let's begin.
Today's menu is called "Rice, rice, and mussels".
Here are the ingredients.
Rice, sticky rice,
mussels, refined rice wine, and so on.
(2T of thick soy sauce, pepper,)
(4T of refined rice wine, and 25 to 30 mussels)
(Blanch the ingredients for about 30 to 40 seconds.)
After you clean the mussels,
add soy sauce, pepper, refined rice wine,
and blanch them. After that, take them out from their shells.
Don't throw away the boiled stock.
Instead, use a cloth to strain it.
Now, we have to mix rice with sticky rice and cook it.
But before we do that, let me give you a tip.
(Jeong Sik's tip)
If you use the strained stock...
to cook the rice, it will enhance the savory taste.
If you're using mussels bought from the store,
you can just replace the stock by adding water...
mixed with 3 tablespoons of salt.
Add the mussels and boil it for just a bit more.
Once everything's cooked thoroughly, you're all done.
Now, let's make the spicy soy sauce that will enhance...
the rich taste of this dish.
If you add a lot of chili to the sauce and eat it with rice,
it'll taste much more delicious.
I think I've recorded enough.
I should get ready to welcome the guests...
Gosh, my burn still stings.
But still...
I hope she really is the one this time around.
Master Cook.
Seung Ah, you're here.
Have you been well?
Something smells delicious.
Hey, I'm here too.
Yes, you're here. Good job finding your house.
I'm going to get changed.
Why did he gather everyone?
I think he has an announcement to make.
What were you making? Do you want any help?
I always tell you this.
The best way you can help me out...
is by not helping.
Gosh, but still...
I'll at least chop the radish.
- My gosh. - Like this?
Watch carefully. You need to hold the knife like this...
Gosh, that's hot.
I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
I took my glove off earlier because my hand hurt.
Why is your hand so hot?
Did you touch a hot pot?
Wait a minute. Did you just say my hand's hot?
Come on. Come with me.
Is your hand okay?
What? Why is her hand okay?
I'm fine.
Why all of a sudden?
This can't be true.
Is your hand okay, Master Cook?
Yes.
Seung Ah, by any chance, did you feel...
any unusual symptoms recently?
Or did you experience any changes in your body?
Or maybe you ate something bad and developed an allergy.
I'm not sure. I don't think anything happened in particular.
I no longer have cold hands and feet.
Come to think of it, it feels like my body temperature has increased.
Cold hands and feet?
Yes. Ever since I was young, I suffered from cold hands and feet.
But these days,
I take the oriental medicine I got from my mom every day.
So my hands and feet are no longer cold.
Does that mean my power didn't work on her...
because she had cold hands and feet?
It wasn't because she was the one?
Did you always have severely cold hands and feet?
Can it really be that serious?
Are they always that cold?
Does it run in the family?
Do you have no problem touching hot stuff? Do you get cold easily?
Are you okay with staying in hot sauna rooms?
Yes, pretty much.
I have low body temperature, so I'm good with warmth.
So that's what it was.
Why didn't I realize this?
- I wonder what's wrong with him. - My gosh.
What's so funny?
You shouldn't be here.
- Let's go. - I'm okay.
Come on.
What was that?
- Thank you for the meal. - Thank you for the meal.
Thank you for the meal.
Gosh, you seasoned the rice really well.
The sauce is spicy and delicious.
The taste of this mussel rice reminds me of Clon.
It's so tasty that it makes me...
want to dance passionately.
You're not good at it.
Right?
Oh, right. What's the announcement you need to make?
- What? - Yes.
Why did you gather all of us?
I didn't want to startle you guys,
so I was going to tell you after we finished the meal.
I'm...
going to...
marry Seung Ah.
Really?
I kind of knew you'd get married this spring.
That's the announcement?
What's with the lame reaction?
That's why you were so hesitant?
- Aren't you surprised? - Why would we be surprised?
You guys are always together, and you can't stand being apart.
So we naturally figured you'd get married pretty soon.
On top of that, you're pretty old.
San Hae, you're not getting married early.
You'll be turning 40 next year. You'll be 40 years old.
You little... Don't emphasize that.
By the way, why is our rich brother-in-law...
still not here?
The rice and soup will get cold.
He did tell me he'll be late. Just a second.
His name is the most searched word on the web.
Raidpatch just released an article about him.
My gosh, did they catch you two dating?
What?
"Min Hyuk of A2B..."
"leaves a memo beneath a microwave at a convenience store."
"What could he have written?"
Hey, they even have photos of you.
Let me see.
(Raidpatch)
You're right.
"Celebrities from QBC frequently visit this convenience store."
"And Min Hyuk of A2B also showed up."
I'm just one of the many celebrities that got their photos taken.
"Min Hyuk of A2B is known to love convenience store food."
"After he finished his meal, he left a memo..."
"behind the microwave at the convenience store."
"We checked the memo, and it said..."
"I'm thirsty all day and every day."
What kind of nonsense is this?
It's nothing.
"Min Hyuk is an idol star that made Raidpatch give up on him."
"It turns out he's a transparent idol star who's always at..."
"the accommodation, practice room, or the convenience store."
What is this?
A "transparent idol star"?
- Where are you? - I'm here.
- Hello. - Hey.
Hey, rich brother-in-law.
Your name made it on the web today.
I'm relieved we didn't get caught. Aren't you?
I'm not relieved.
You need to stop making people call you a "transparent idol star".
What's wrong with you?
Min Hyuk, try some of this.
Thank you. Thank you for the meal.
- Eat up. - Thank you.
- Enjoy your meal.
Eat it while it's hot.
Try some of this as well.
Thank you.
Honey, I want that.
Okay. Try some of this.
Is it delicious? Eat up.
It was a tough day today, wasn't it?
I was so thirsty.
Me too. I was so thirsty too.
Eat up.
Eat up, Mr. Han.
- Open up. - Open up.
Eat a lot.
You want some more?
- Eat up. - Yes.
- No, that one. - That one?
No, this one.
Attention, guys.
I have an important announcement to make today as well.
I think...
I met my destiny today.
There he goes again.
Don't mind him. Let's eat.
It's different this time.
- She really is my destiny. - "She really is my destiny."
Gosh, forget it.
Wait.
Perhaps,
she has cold hands too.
Were her hands cold?
I hope it's real this time.
Who has cold hands?
I'm taking herbal tonics these days.
Should I recommend that place to you?
No, it's fine.
I hope...
she isn't the case,
but even if she has cold hands,
I want her to live how she is.
What is he saying?
Don't mind him.
Keep eating.
By the way,
I thought you had dinner exactly at 7pm.
You guys aren't doing that anymore?
Well...
It naturally happened that way.
Well...
It's nothing.
In case of getting into any type of misfortune,
us three siblings kept this deadly mission.
To continue the powers in our family,
what must you do?
We must...
- Gather at home for dinner. - Gather at home for dinner.
Otherwise, you might be faced with misfortunes.
Never forget about this.
Are you okay?
Time flies.
By the way,
where does Jin Mi always go around this time?
(Deadly Mission)
- Mom! - Mom!
- Mom. - We're having dinner.
Please excuse me.
I'm not late, right?
All right, let's have dinner.
The sauce got smeared well.
According to the results of countless simulations...
Will we be all right?
What on earth are those misfortunes about?
- Hey. - Hey.
- What? - It was only a superstition.
We're not sure whether if it was our ancestors' premeditated scheme,
or if they actually believed in it,
but there's one thing for certain.
Try this.
Eat up.
Isn't it delicious?
It is.
- Eat up. - Eat a lot.
Okay.
A meal with your loved ones...
is the best meal ever.
The same one?
- Today... - It's good.
Jeong Sik, here.
Thus,
my score for today's meal...
is 5 out of 5.
Come, come.
Have a spoonful.
Go, go.
Eat before you go.
Food is common, but is hard to be enjoyed.
Having a meal all together...
is the best indeed!
