1
00:00:45,003 --> 00:00:47,965
THE LEGEND OF KITCHEN SOLDIER

2
00:00:54,346 --> 00:00:57,307
It feels so strange
now that it's time to leave.

3
00:00:57,891 --> 00:01:00,060
Corporal Joo Sang-uk,
you have to keep in touch.

4
00:01:00,143 --> 00:01:02,813
It's not like I'm going far.
We'll probably run into each other.

5
00:01:03,230 --> 00:01:05,357
And you better not ignore me,
treating me like some old man.

6
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,858
An old man?

7
00:01:08,777 --> 00:01:10,612
- Barracks 1, at ease!
- Salute!

8
00:01:10,696 --> 00:01:12,447
Yes, I got it. Is all your stuff packed?

9
00:01:12,531 --> 00:01:13,615
- Yes, we're all set.
- Yes, sir.

10
00:01:13,699 --> 00:01:16,743
- The transport's here, so let's go.
- Yes, sir.

11
00:01:26,420 --> 00:01:29,089
I wonder if Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun
and Seong-jae are doing okay.

12
00:01:30,090 --> 00:01:31,550
I'm not sure about Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun

13
00:01:31,633 --> 00:01:33,051
but I'm sure Seong-jae is doing just fine.

14
00:01:33,135 --> 00:01:35,470
Right? He'll do great.

15
00:01:36,555 --> 00:01:38,390
- Let's go.
- Let's go.

16
00:01:50,193 --> 00:01:55,073
BARRACKS 1, KANG SEONG-JAE

17
00:01:55,157 --> 00:01:57,743
BARRACKS 1

18
00:02:01,997 --> 00:02:06,460
A HEARTY MEAL IS THE START OF CAMARADERIE

19
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:11,340
FOOD WASTE TRAFFIC LIGHT

20
00:02:11,423 --> 00:02:15,052
And Ganglim Outpost,
4th Company, 1st Battalion is

21
00:02:15,135 --> 00:02:17,471
tied for first place! Congratulations!

22
00:02:18,388 --> 00:02:20,724
- My goodness.
- What?

23
00:02:20,807 --> 00:02:25,062
- We won! We did it!
- Yes!

24
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:29,858
We did it!

25
00:02:29,941 --> 00:02:30,942
GANGLIM OUTPOST SHUTDOWN

26
00:02:31,026 --> 00:02:34,154
So why isn't the Quest complete?

27
00:02:37,449 --> 00:02:41,453
It was an incredibly difficult decision.

28
00:02:42,204 --> 00:02:44,039
Both teams presented wonderful dishes

29
00:02:44,122 --> 00:02:46,875
and while the Officers' Mess's score
was slightly higher

30
00:02:46,958 --> 00:02:49,127
because it was more suitable
for military meals

31
00:02:49,711 --> 00:02:51,421
the Ganglim Outpost received bonus points

32
00:02:51,505 --> 00:02:53,256
resulting in a tie between the two teams.

33
00:02:53,340 --> 00:02:56,093
So, after a discussion among the judges

34
00:02:56,677 --> 00:02:59,638
we've decided to hold
a final one-on-one showdown

35
00:02:59,721 --> 00:03:03,350
to determine the ultimate winner.

36
00:03:09,981 --> 00:03:14,528
Hero.
You have failed to complete the Quest.

37
00:03:19,783 --> 00:03:23,120
All skills and recipes will disappear.

38
00:03:25,497 --> 00:03:28,875
The Chef's Path will now end.

39
00:03:30,043 --> 00:03:31,461
Since it's a tie for first place

40
00:03:31,545 --> 00:03:32,671
it looks like we'll have one more round.

41
00:03:32,754 --> 00:03:36,383
But hey, what does it matter? Who are we?

42
00:03:36,925 --> 00:03:38,635
- We're Ganglim, aren't we?
- Ganglim Outpost!

43
00:03:38,719 --> 00:03:40,554
Let's take this all the way
and win the whole thing!

44
00:03:40,637 --> 00:03:41,638
- Are you okay?
- Yes, I'm fine.

45
00:03:41,805 --> 00:03:42,806
- You're not hurt, right?
- No.

46
00:03:42,889 --> 00:03:45,434
All right, this competition isn't
a team battle. It's an individual one.

47
00:03:45,809 --> 00:03:47,436
A one-on-one showdown.

48
00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:48,520
What?

49
00:03:55,736 --> 00:03:58,071
One representative soldier from each team

50
00:03:58,155 --> 00:04:01,783
- will have 50 minutes to complete a dish.
- A representative?

51
00:04:05,328 --> 00:04:07,164
Seong-jae, get ready. You got this!

52
00:04:07,247 --> 00:04:08,582
Let's make sure we win this time.

53
00:04:08,665 --> 00:04:10,333
- Representatives.
- Show them what you got.

54
00:04:10,417 --> 00:04:11,543
Please step forward!

55
00:04:13,086 --> 00:04:15,130
Come on, walk tall. Go!

56
00:04:18,592 --> 00:04:21,094
FINAL EPISODE

57
00:04:23,138 --> 00:04:24,473
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.

58
00:04:24,556 --> 00:04:27,142
That was a dramatic tie.
How are you feeling right now?

59
00:04:34,357 --> 00:04:35,817
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae?

60
00:04:38,737 --> 00:04:40,030
Hey, what's with him?

61
00:04:40,113 --> 00:04:43,074
I know. He suddenly zoned out.

62
00:04:45,410 --> 00:04:46,912
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.

63
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:53,335
- Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.
- How are you feeling right now?

64
00:04:53,418 --> 00:04:54,628
Well...

65
00:04:56,630 --> 00:04:58,006
The thing is...

66
00:04:59,883 --> 00:05:03,428
I think I need to think a little more
about what would be good to make.

67
00:05:04,137 --> 00:05:06,807
Oh, okay. I understand.

68
00:05:07,933 --> 00:05:11,561
- Corporal Lee Ho-yeong.
- Corporal Lee Ho-yeong.

69
00:05:12,062 --> 00:05:13,605
Did you anticipate a rematch?

70
00:05:15,524 --> 00:05:17,067
I made a few small mistakes

71
00:05:17,150 --> 00:05:19,402
so I don't think
I was able to perform at 100%.

72
00:05:20,028 --> 00:05:21,655
I'll focus more on the individual match

73
00:05:21,738 --> 00:05:23,156
and ensure that I come out the winner.

74
00:05:23,698 --> 00:05:27,577
It seems the defending champion
is left with some regrets, as expected.

75
00:05:27,661 --> 00:05:30,163
Okay, then, we will now announce
the mission for the tiebreaker.

76
00:05:30,705 --> 00:05:31,832
This mission

77
00:05:31,915 --> 00:05:34,334
is to develop a new special meal.

78
00:05:34,417 --> 00:05:38,380
This time, with no budget limit,
you are to create one special meal.

79
00:05:38,463 --> 00:05:42,050
My mouth is already watering
thinking about what dishes we'll see.

80
00:05:42,634 --> 00:05:44,761
We'll take a short break to get set up

81
00:05:44,845 --> 00:05:46,847
then we'll start
the competition right away.

82
00:06:06,241 --> 00:06:07,826
Every day, as I'd follow the status window

83
00:06:08,869 --> 00:06:11,371
complete Quests, gain Experience Points

84
00:06:12,205 --> 00:06:13,456
and level up.

85
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:16,376
For the first time, I felt certain
I could actually accomplish something.

86
00:06:17,961 --> 00:06:21,006
Stir-fry the beef with sesame oil.

87
00:06:22,215 --> 00:06:25,552
Use vinegar to eliminate the odor
from the old rice.

88
00:06:25,635 --> 00:06:27,679
Add water to lower the salinity.

89
00:06:27,762 --> 00:06:30,640
Add Cheongyang chili peppers
for some kick.

90
00:06:34,644 --> 00:06:36,521
When using the Rose-Knife item

91
00:06:36,605 --> 00:06:39,566
your cooking grade increases
by half a star.

92
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,239
Perfectly grilled pork belly. Three stars.

93
00:06:46,323 --> 00:06:49,826
What can I do without my status window?

94
00:06:54,414 --> 00:06:57,876
Whether it's cooking
or standing guard at the Outpost...

95
00:06:59,544 --> 00:07:02,756
Right now, I can't do anything.

96
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,938
Seong-jae, are you okay?
What's with you all of a sudden?

97
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,650
- It's nothing.
- Come on.

98
00:07:21,733 --> 00:07:23,985
Hey. Tying for first is
a huge accomplishment.

99
00:07:24,069 --> 00:07:25,820
We gave it our all, right?

100
00:07:27,405 --> 00:07:28,406
But...

101
00:07:30,617 --> 00:07:33,578
- I feel it's all meaningless now.
- Hey, Kang Seong-jae.

102
00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:37,999
What, you think it's all over?
It's not over.

103
00:07:38,667 --> 00:07:40,251
- Just start over, that's all.
- He's right.

104
00:07:40,335 --> 00:07:43,004
Let's plan the menu again.
Since it's a special meal

105
00:07:43,088 --> 00:07:44,339
what about something
like ginseng chicken soup?

106
00:07:44,422 --> 00:07:47,300
That sounds great.
What about grilled eel over rice?

107
00:07:47,384 --> 00:07:48,551
We could really bring out
that smoky flavor.

108
00:07:48,927 --> 00:07:50,220
Smoky sounds good. Hey, what about

109
00:07:50,303 --> 00:07:51,805
that smoky-flavored chicken
you made before?

110
00:07:52,013 --> 00:07:54,432
Kang Seong-jae.
You got anything you want to make?

111
00:07:58,269 --> 00:07:59,354
Just...

112
00:08:00,438 --> 00:08:02,899
- I just want to do well.
- What?

113
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:08,279
You're already doing great.
What? All of a sudden...

114
00:08:09,614 --> 00:08:11,116
What's gotten into you?

115
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:13,576
In just a moment, we'll begin
the second round

116
00:08:13,660 --> 00:08:15,203
to decide our winning team.

117
00:08:15,286 --> 00:08:17,706
We ask all participating teams to please
make your way to the event area.

118
00:08:18,289 --> 00:08:19,332
Seong-jae.

119
00:08:21,084 --> 00:08:22,919
Don't get hung up on the results.

120
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:25,171
For this last one, without any regrets

121
00:08:26,089 --> 00:08:27,966
I hope you'll make the dish
you really want to make.

122
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:31,511
And just trust yourself. You'll be fine.

123
00:08:44,065 --> 00:08:47,485
We have a wide variety of ingredients
prepared for you here.

124
00:08:48,528 --> 00:08:50,488
Choose from the ingredients we have here

125
00:08:50,572 --> 00:08:53,366
and create your own special meal.

126
00:08:54,534 --> 00:08:59,080
We will now begin
the final one-on-one showdown.

127
00:09:29,903 --> 00:09:32,989
- Hey, Kang Seong-jae, let's go!
- Hey, Seong-jae, we're here with you!

128
00:09:42,791 --> 00:09:44,584
My mind is a complete blank.

129
00:09:47,712 --> 00:09:50,090
I have no idea what I should cook.

130
00:09:51,341 --> 00:09:53,510
Can I even cook without the status window?

131
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,347
29TH DIVISION COOKING COMPETITION

132
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:59,891
Is he going to stare
at the ingredients all day?

133
00:10:00,266 --> 00:10:02,102
Time's really flying by.

134
00:10:02,602 --> 00:10:04,479
It looks like Corporal Lee Ho-yeong

135
00:10:04,562 --> 00:10:06,523
is already set to start cooking.

136
00:10:33,424 --> 00:10:38,221
- Grade A onion from Muan.
- Glossy surface, substantial weight.

137
00:10:38,304 --> 00:10:41,266
And that pungent aroma
that hits your nose.

138
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:45,019
These are the things I perceived
with my own senses every day.

139
00:10:46,563 --> 00:10:48,314
Even though the status window is gone

140
00:10:48,898 --> 00:10:50,900
I might've known it all along.

141
00:10:55,947 --> 00:10:59,742
A fresh, sweet smell,
just the right firmness

142
00:10:59,826 --> 00:11:01,744
and golden skin.

143
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:02,871
This is it.

144
00:11:03,872 --> 00:11:07,167
If you press it firmly like this...

145
00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:09,127
See how it springs right back up?

146
00:11:09,210 --> 00:11:11,671
This is the sign of fresh meat.

147
00:11:11,754 --> 00:11:16,134
- Grade S domestic pork.
- Put your nose right up to it.

148
00:11:17,802 --> 00:11:19,470
And give it a good sniff.

149
00:11:19,554 --> 00:11:24,058
You'll smell a savory, nutty aroma,
not a gamey one.

150
00:11:27,061 --> 00:11:28,229
DOMESTIC GRADE C EGGS

151
00:11:28,313 --> 00:11:30,648
Domestic Grade C eggs.

152
00:11:33,443 --> 00:11:35,111
- What are you doing?
- Oh, gosh.

153
00:11:36,196 --> 00:11:39,240
The eggs seemed a bit off,
so I was shaking one.

154
00:11:39,908 --> 00:11:41,951
I think I can hear it sloshing.

155
00:11:59,302 --> 00:12:02,597
What I need isn't some amazing recipe.

156
00:12:03,765 --> 00:12:06,142
What dish do I want to eat most right now?

157
00:12:15,151 --> 00:12:18,029
The knife I've held every day
feels unfamiliar.

158
00:12:19,530 --> 00:12:23,409
It feels unusually heavy,
and the blade feels dull.

159
00:12:24,619 --> 00:12:26,496
This is so different from
just a few minutes ago.

160
00:12:27,163 --> 00:12:28,331
What is he doing?

161
00:12:29,332 --> 00:12:30,792
There are no guidelines.

162
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,505
No dotted lines or angle markers.
I can't see any of them.

163
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:38,174
Corporal Lee Ho-yeong's
knife skills are savage.

164
00:12:38,258 --> 00:12:41,636
Just look at that speed! He's so fast.

165
00:12:42,220 --> 00:12:43,596
And precise.

166
00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:46,349
Corporal Lee Ho-yeong.
You can afford to take it easy.

167
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:48,351
You could probably win
with just your left hand.

168
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:50,812
Kang Seong-jae! Don't worry!
Just do what you always do.

169
00:12:50,895 --> 00:12:53,273
- Cooking is all about heart! Heart!
- It's not even a match.

170
00:12:53,356 --> 00:12:55,441
- Go, Ganglim.
- Go!

171
00:12:55,984 --> 00:12:57,235
Just like I always do.

172
00:12:58,611 --> 00:12:59,696
Stay calm.

173
00:13:10,039 --> 00:13:14,294
- Kang Seong-jae's luck is running out.
- Right.

174
00:13:23,094 --> 00:13:24,971
So now even you won't help me.

175
00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:40,236
A HEARTY MEAL IS THE START OF CAMARADERIE

176
00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:46,576
You have completed the daily quest.

177
00:13:47,618 --> 00:13:50,121
Your knife skill proficiency
has increased.

178
00:13:58,296 --> 00:14:00,965
All the countless cuts
I've made until now.

179
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:05,386
I have to remember the feeling
from those times.

180
00:14:17,523 --> 00:14:18,524
Let's go!

181
00:14:22,028 --> 00:14:23,946
All right, 30 minutes left.

182
00:14:33,873 --> 00:14:36,417
He's doing pretty well,
even though that's not his usual knife.

183
00:14:36,501 --> 00:14:39,003
Only bad cooks blame their gear.

184
00:14:39,087 --> 00:14:41,005
Like me. You got this!

185
00:15:16,791 --> 00:15:18,709
- 30 minutes is plenty of time.
- Totally.

186
00:15:25,842 --> 00:15:27,593
I made rice every day

187
00:15:28,261 --> 00:15:30,930
but now I hesitate
over every little thing.

188
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,016
To make delicious rice

189
00:15:34,559 --> 00:15:36,185
is the most difficult thing of all.

190
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:38,646
I'm only just now realizing that.

191
00:15:46,195 --> 00:15:47,447
Dad.

192
00:15:51,242 --> 00:15:54,495
Seong-jae, do you know
why rice is so important?

193
00:15:55,538 --> 00:15:56,622
No.

194
00:15:56,873 --> 00:15:59,959
It's because rice brings
all the side dishes together.

195
00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:03,504
No matter how good the side dishes are,
they feel incomplete without rice.

196
00:16:04,464 --> 00:16:06,299
You shouldn't wash the rice so roughly.

197
00:16:06,591 --> 00:16:07,717
You'll hurt it.

198
00:16:08,843 --> 00:16:09,886
Like this.

199
00:16:11,762 --> 00:16:14,640
Gently now.
Let it slip through your fingers.

200
00:16:15,099 --> 00:16:18,603
Let it slip through your fingers.
Like this.

201
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:20,771
Now you try.

202
00:16:35,036 --> 00:16:38,915
Yes, maybe even before
the status window showed up

203
00:16:38,998 --> 00:16:41,209
Dad had already taught me everything.

204
00:16:44,795 --> 00:16:45,796
That's it.

205
00:16:48,049 --> 00:16:51,177
Kang Seong-jae is starting
to pick up the pace.

206
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:53,763
It looks like he's finally
found his rhythm.

207
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:55,598
I wonder what special dish
he'll come up with.

208
00:17:07,485 --> 00:17:09,862
- What's he trying to do?
- I have no idea.

209
00:17:15,409 --> 00:17:19,747
The exact measurements and ratios
for the seasoning don't matter.

210
00:17:23,751 --> 00:17:27,421
What really matters is
how it tastes to me.

211
00:17:28,548 --> 00:17:30,132
Now that the status window is gone

212
00:17:30,216 --> 00:17:33,469
the only one I can truly rely on
is myself.

213
00:17:36,305 --> 00:17:40,226
I need a deep, rich umami flavor.

214
00:17:52,530 --> 00:17:55,491
The air is already filling up
with a delicious aroma.

215
00:17:55,575 --> 00:17:58,411
And we're all very curious to see

216
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:00,329
what kind of dish
Lee Ho-yeong will create.

217
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,541
That rich, buttery aroma
is making my mouth water.

218
00:18:04,625 --> 00:18:06,752
Kang Seong-jae's dish, on the other hand

219
00:18:06,836 --> 00:18:08,796
has a somewhat familiar feel to it.

220
00:18:09,505 --> 00:18:11,716
It doesn't quite look like a special meal

221
00:18:11,966 --> 00:18:14,969
so I have to admit,
I'm a little concerned.

222
00:18:15,845 --> 00:18:17,805
With two dishes that are
so completely different

223
00:18:17,888 --> 00:18:21,475
we'll see how they turn out.
All eyes are on them now.

224
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:28,983
All right, 20 minutes left.

225
00:18:31,736 --> 00:18:34,280
- 20 minutes is plenty of time.
- More than enough.

226
00:19:02,683 --> 00:19:03,768
All right, ten minutes left.

227
00:19:03,851 --> 00:19:06,103
Both contestants need to start
wrapping things up.

228
00:19:23,871 --> 00:19:25,414
Five minutes remaining.

229
00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:31,712
He has to wrap it up now.

230
00:19:37,718 --> 00:19:39,512
With soy sauce and balsamic vinegar

231
00:19:39,595 --> 00:19:41,931
he was able to make it
look just like caviar.

232
00:19:42,306 --> 00:19:44,308
- That's amazing.
- Yes.

233
00:19:44,392 --> 00:19:46,102
One minute remaining.

234
00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:58,322
All right, time's up.
Please stop what you're doing.

235
00:19:59,448 --> 00:20:01,575
Let's give a big round of applause

236
00:20:01,659 --> 00:20:03,285
to our two soldiers
for all their hard work.

237
00:20:07,540 --> 00:20:08,541
Seong-jae.

238
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:14,505
You get cut by knives and burned by fire.

239
00:20:15,256 --> 00:20:18,759
You've got to wear those scars
to be a real chef.

240
00:20:19,301 --> 00:20:20,344
Got it?

241
00:20:39,405 --> 00:20:43,033
My goodness, did he really make this
in just 50 minutes?

242
00:20:43,534 --> 00:20:46,078
I saw it with my own two eyes,
and I still can't believe it.

243
00:20:50,416 --> 00:20:52,126
It looks like
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae

244
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:54,420
misunderstood the theme this time.

245
00:20:54,503 --> 00:20:57,882
It's a far cry from the elegance
of French cuisine.

246
00:20:57,965 --> 00:20:59,049
Yes.

247
00:20:59,133 --> 00:21:01,010
- The reactions are good.
- Excellent.

248
00:21:01,093 --> 00:21:02,094
It's going to be fine.

249
00:21:02,178 --> 00:21:04,889
Corporal Lee Ho-yeong,
would you please introduce your dish?

250
00:21:04,972 --> 00:21:06,766
Corporal Lee Ho-yeong!

251
00:21:07,808 --> 00:21:09,310
Vol-au-vent is French

252
00:21:09,393 --> 00:21:10,895
for "flight in the wind,"
meaning it's incredibly light.

253
00:21:11,479 --> 00:21:13,022
Inside the puff pastry

254
00:21:13,105 --> 00:21:16,025
I've placed a filling
of cream sauce and chicken.

255
00:21:16,609 --> 00:21:19,278
All right, first, you will taste
the dish from Corporal Lee Ho-yeong

256
00:21:19,361 --> 00:21:20,905
of the Officers' Mess.

257
00:21:40,841 --> 00:21:42,051
This creation

258
00:21:42,551 --> 00:21:44,929
was made with a precise technique
to make the outside crispy

259
00:21:45,012 --> 00:21:49,183
while keeping the inside perfectly moist.

260
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:51,727
It feels like...

261
00:21:53,562 --> 00:21:57,399
- Looking at...
- A piece of art.

262
00:22:03,197 --> 00:22:06,158
Next, I've prepared a truffle risotto.

263
00:22:06,242 --> 00:22:09,370
I enhanced the aroma
with truffle mushrooms and oil.

264
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:14,875
It's an explosion of different flavors
in my mouth.

265
00:22:14,959 --> 00:22:17,002
This risotto has a subtle truffle aroma

266
00:22:17,086 --> 00:22:19,129
and it's cooked perfectly al dente.

267
00:22:19,213 --> 00:22:22,675
It almost feels like I'm dining
in a high-end restaurant.

268
00:22:25,386 --> 00:22:29,223
For dessert,
I've prepared a sweet creme brulee.

269
00:22:29,515 --> 00:22:30,558
Please, enjoy.

270
00:22:35,396 --> 00:22:36,730
It's not too sweet. I like that.

271
00:22:36,856 --> 00:22:40,442
A meal this luxurious makes me wonder

272
00:22:40,526 --> 00:22:42,361
if I even deserve it.

273
00:22:44,655 --> 00:22:46,156
Thank you.

274
00:22:49,535 --> 00:22:52,288
All right, now we'll taste the dish
from Private First Class

275
00:22:52,371 --> 00:22:53,998
Kang Seong-jae of Ganglim Outpost.

276
00:22:56,584 --> 00:22:59,461
After tasting something so incredible

277
00:22:59,545 --> 00:23:01,714
this one looks quite plain in comparison.

278
00:23:02,172 --> 00:23:03,173
Yes.

279
00:23:03,924 --> 00:23:07,303
I'm not sure you can even
call this a "special meal."

280
00:23:08,846 --> 00:23:10,014
It is a special meal.

281
00:23:10,097 --> 00:23:13,183
But it just looks like
a typical home-cooked meal.

282
00:23:13,267 --> 00:23:14,435
For sure.

283
00:23:14,518 --> 00:23:16,562
He's not in the same league
as the guys from the Officers' Mess.

284
00:23:18,063 --> 00:23:19,607
I suggest you eat it as you do at home.

285
00:23:19,899 --> 00:23:23,861
Put some kimchi on a spoonful of rice
and then wrap it in the seaweed.

286
00:23:54,350 --> 00:23:58,187
- Mom.
- My In-tae's favorite side dish.

287
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:00,898
Eat up.

288
00:24:08,155 --> 00:24:10,115
- What?
- Is he crying?

289
00:24:12,326 --> 00:24:14,995
Our heartless Division Commander

290
00:24:15,079 --> 00:24:17,873
- is actually crying.
- Is there something wrong with him?

291
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:21,752
- He's crying.
- Is it that good?

292
00:24:38,811 --> 00:24:40,020
- Mom.
- Mom.

293
00:24:40,104 --> 00:24:42,439
Just one more. Eat one more before you go.

294
00:24:43,649 --> 00:24:45,651
My son, you're having a hard time,
aren't you?

295
00:24:45,734 --> 00:24:47,027
Come on, let's eat.

296
00:24:50,489 --> 00:24:52,116
- Mom.
- Mom.

297
00:25:04,461 --> 00:25:06,046
- Sir.
- What?

298
00:25:08,632 --> 00:25:11,593
Gosh, I made a fool of myself by crying.

299
00:25:14,930 --> 00:25:16,432
At first glance

300
00:25:17,016 --> 00:25:19,435
I thought this was
just another home-cooked meal.

301
00:25:19,977 --> 00:25:21,520
But the more I ate

302
00:25:22,271 --> 00:25:24,773
the more it tugged at my heartstrings.

303
00:25:24,857 --> 00:25:27,109
Where did you learn to cook this dish?

304
00:25:29,403 --> 00:25:31,113
I didn't learn it from anywhere, sir.

305
00:25:32,072 --> 00:25:35,659
I pictured my cozy home,
a place that's always been my sanctuary

306
00:25:36,535 --> 00:25:38,620
and relied completely
on my senses to create it.

307
00:25:41,623 --> 00:25:42,666
For many soldiers

308
00:25:43,667 --> 00:25:46,670
including myself, what we miss the most
during our military service

309
00:25:47,796 --> 00:25:49,506
is a home-cooked meal.

310
00:25:51,508 --> 00:25:53,427
We may be dependable and strong soldiers

311
00:25:54,261 --> 00:25:57,973
but a part of our hearts
always longs for our families.

312
00:25:58,432 --> 00:25:59,641
I believe

313
00:26:01,143 --> 00:26:03,312
that the warmth
of a single home-cooked meal

314
00:26:03,395 --> 00:26:06,148
has the power to soothe that longing.

315
00:26:10,069 --> 00:26:11,487
- Five, six, seven, eight.
- Five, six, seven, eight.

316
00:26:17,910 --> 00:26:19,078
- Salute!
- Salute!

317
00:26:19,161 --> 00:26:20,662
- Perfect! This is delicious!
- Perfect! This is delicious!

318
00:26:52,111 --> 00:26:55,948
All right,
the judges' scores have been tallied.

319
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,575
We will now announce the final results.

320
00:27:02,246 --> 00:27:03,497
Today

321
00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:06,416
I made a meal I can be proud of,
even if I lose.

322
00:27:07,793 --> 00:27:09,878
Thinking of my loved ones

323
00:27:09,962 --> 00:27:12,881
through all the cuts from the knife
and burns on my hands

324
00:27:12,965 --> 00:27:15,968
I created this meal with my own two hands.

325
00:27:16,135 --> 00:27:18,387
And the final result is...

326
00:27:18,762 --> 00:27:21,098
Congratulations. This year's winner is...

327
00:27:25,978 --> 00:27:27,604
Ganglim Outpost!

328
00:27:36,738 --> 00:27:40,159
Let's give another big round of applause
for our two hard-working soldiers!

329
00:27:40,284 --> 00:27:42,119
Seong-jae did it!

330
00:27:47,833 --> 00:27:50,169
Kang Seong-jae,
you really had me on pins and needles.

331
00:27:50,252 --> 00:27:52,671
I never would have won without you two.
Thank you.

332
00:27:55,382 --> 00:27:57,593
See? I knew you could do it.

333
00:27:58,844 --> 00:27:59,845
Thank you.

334
00:28:01,722 --> 00:28:04,683
Just watching them cook was pure torture.

335
00:28:05,142 --> 00:28:07,019
My mouth was watering the whole time.

336
00:28:08,604 --> 00:28:10,856
But it looks like you aren't too happy.

337
00:28:10,939 --> 00:28:13,066
Even though your own guys
took first and second places.

338
00:28:13,150 --> 00:28:14,526
I am happy, sir.

339
00:28:15,903 --> 00:28:18,572
Now let's hear a few words
from our winning team.

340
00:28:19,448 --> 00:28:21,700
- Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.
- Private First Class Kang Seong-jae!

341
00:28:23,785 --> 00:28:26,038
First of all, the Outpost Commander

342
00:28:26,121 --> 00:28:28,624
Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun,
and Corporal Kim Kwan-cheol.

343
00:28:29,124 --> 00:28:31,001
Without their help,
I never would have been able to win.

344
00:28:33,045 --> 00:28:36,590
Today, as the cook for Ganglim Outpost

345
00:28:37,674 --> 00:28:39,635
I wanted to do one last thing for them.

346
00:28:40,260 --> 00:28:41,261
Wait.

347
00:28:41,845 --> 00:28:44,556
What do you mean, your "last thing"
as the cook for Ganglim Outpost?

348
00:28:45,307 --> 00:28:46,725
Is something going on at Ganglim?

349
00:28:47,517 --> 00:28:49,978
About that, sir.
The battalion commander mentioned

350
00:28:50,062 --> 00:28:52,564
that there were safety concerns
being raised about Ganglim

351
00:28:52,648 --> 00:28:54,399
so we were in the process
of shutting it down.

352
00:28:54,483 --> 00:28:57,027
If there are safety issues,
then shutting it down is the right call.

353
00:28:57,110 --> 00:28:59,321
The safety of our soldiers
is our top priority, after all.

354
00:28:59,821 --> 00:29:02,115
May I have a word, sir?

355
00:29:19,341 --> 00:29:21,468
- Salute!
- Salute.

356
00:29:23,553 --> 00:29:26,848
I came because I have something
I must report to you, Division Commander.

357
00:29:26,932 --> 00:29:28,850
- And you are...
- The 4th Company Commander

358
00:29:28,934 --> 00:29:30,477
Captain Hwang Seok-ho, sir.

359
00:29:31,353 --> 00:29:33,105
What is it you wish to say?

360
00:29:37,067 --> 00:29:38,485
In fact, our Ganglim Outpost

361
00:29:39,027 --> 00:29:41,029
is safer than any other outpost.

362
00:29:43,073 --> 00:29:44,283
What are you talking about?

363
00:29:45,617 --> 00:29:47,995
This is the safety report
for Ganglim Outpost.

364
00:29:48,996 --> 00:29:51,540
This report, under orders
from the battalion commander

365
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:54,459
was intentionally fabricated
to make the outpost appear unsafe.

366
00:29:55,460 --> 00:29:56,795
What are you talking about?

367
00:29:57,004 --> 00:29:59,506
Are you saying they intentionally tried
to shut down the outpost?

368
00:30:02,092 --> 00:30:03,260
Division Commander,
it's a misunderstanding.

369
00:30:03,343 --> 00:30:05,345
In order to silence the soldiers
at Ganglim Outpost

370
00:30:05,429 --> 00:30:06,805
who spoke out about the food supplier

371
00:30:06,888 --> 00:30:09,141
and with the ulterior motive
of having them disbanded

372
00:30:09,224 --> 00:30:10,976
the closure procedure was initiated.

373
00:30:11,059 --> 00:30:12,311
Then...

374
00:30:13,687 --> 00:30:16,398
- there's just one favor I need to ask.
- Yes, sir. Please tell me.

375
00:30:16,481 --> 00:30:19,651
I'm thinking this might be
a good chance to clean up Ganglim.

376
00:30:19,943 --> 00:30:21,445
Submit a few reports up the chain

377
00:30:21,528 --> 00:30:24,072
that there are concerns about accidents
due to the outpost's deterioration.

378
00:30:25,532 --> 00:30:26,575
BUSINESS CLOSURE FORM

379
00:30:29,870 --> 00:30:31,413
Again, I apologize
for causing you concern.

380
00:30:31,913 --> 00:30:32,914
Salute!

381
00:30:35,542 --> 00:30:37,127
I'm going to look
more into those documents

382
00:30:37,210 --> 00:30:38,795
I saw in the Battalion Commander's office.

383
00:30:45,719 --> 00:30:46,970
Then...

384
00:30:49,389 --> 00:30:51,266
What can I do to help?

385
00:30:52,601 --> 00:30:55,604
While Lieutenant Colonel Baek Chun-ik
is at the cooking competition

386
00:30:56,271 --> 00:30:58,690
I need you to help me find the evidence.

387
00:31:00,067 --> 00:31:03,820
My goodness, I just knew it.

388
00:31:03,904 --> 00:31:06,615
They just changed the company name
and signed a new contract

389
00:31:06,698 --> 00:31:07,991
over and over again.

390
00:31:08,075 --> 00:31:09,910
He's been pulling this the whole time.

391
00:31:10,327 --> 00:31:12,412
I never took the Battalion Commander
for that kind of man.

392
00:31:12,496 --> 00:31:14,748
It was right under my nose.

393
00:31:14,831 --> 00:31:16,208
Hey, Investigator.

394
00:31:16,291 --> 00:31:17,918
Take all of this too. Wait a minute.

395
00:31:18,001 --> 00:31:20,379
Let me just take a picture
before you take these.

396
00:31:22,464 --> 00:31:25,008
Yes, thank you for your work.
You can take them.

397
00:31:25,092 --> 00:31:27,386
If this isn't defense industry corruption,
what is?

398
00:31:27,469 --> 00:31:31,515
This is why we were always
getting rotten eggs and stuff, right?

399
00:31:31,598 --> 00:31:33,642
You can't blame Yoon Dong-hyun
for his cooking

400
00:31:33,725 --> 00:31:34,976
when he could only use
ingredients like that.

401
00:31:35,060 --> 00:31:37,145
Kang Seong-jae is the one
who deserves credit for his good work.

402
00:31:37,229 --> 00:31:39,731
When a problem arose,
they'd terminate the contract

403
00:31:39,815 --> 00:31:41,400
and have the business shut down.

404
00:31:41,483 --> 00:31:42,943
But in reality, they were contracting
with the same company

405
00:31:43,026 --> 00:31:45,362
- under a different name.
- Hey, Hwang Seok-ho!

406
00:31:46,029 --> 00:31:48,365
Do you have any idea where you are,
talking so recklessly?

407
00:31:48,448 --> 00:31:52,828
- Company Commander, continue.
- Furthermore

408
00:31:53,703 --> 00:31:55,539
Major Im Seung-bin, who died a year ago

409
00:31:55,622 --> 00:31:59,251
during a corruption investigation,
was also wrongly framed.

410
00:32:00,335 --> 00:32:01,378
I have confirmed it.

411
00:32:22,190 --> 00:32:23,233
What is it?

412
00:32:24,359 --> 00:32:25,652
How are you holding up?

413
00:32:26,445 --> 00:32:27,487
How do you think I'm holding up?

414
00:32:28,989 --> 00:32:30,574
Has the Battalion Commander come to visit?

415
00:32:32,617 --> 00:32:34,411
Everyone is too busy cutting ties with me.

416
00:32:36,163 --> 00:32:38,081
Did the Battalion Commander
promise you my position?

417
00:32:40,417 --> 00:32:42,544
A position... Is that really so important?

418
00:32:43,753 --> 00:32:46,840
Is that why you went so far? To Major Im?

419
00:32:50,844 --> 00:32:53,722
- What are you talking about?
- He was so good to us.

420
00:32:57,851 --> 00:33:00,812
So, what exactly
did you come here to hear?

421
00:33:03,899 --> 00:33:05,692
You didn't do this alone, did you?

422
00:33:12,407 --> 00:33:13,992
I will handle it properly.

423
00:33:14,576 --> 00:33:15,619
Min-gu.

424
00:33:16,203 --> 00:33:18,079
You get what I'm saying, right?

425
00:33:18,163 --> 00:33:19,164
I...

426
00:33:20,707 --> 00:33:22,459
used to love how you were

427
00:33:23,210 --> 00:33:25,837
like a cornered rat
that would even bite the cat.

428
00:33:26,588 --> 00:33:28,173
But you don't have that fire
in you anymore.

429
00:33:28,507 --> 00:33:32,385
I don't want to be disappointed again.
Major Lee Min-gu.

430
00:33:32,469 --> 00:33:35,055
I suppose if it's a matter
of responsibility

431
00:33:35,138 --> 00:33:36,932
then it's mine for failing
to manage my subordinate.

432
00:33:37,015 --> 00:33:42,062
But if I had known about this beforehand
I would've stopped it one way or another.

433
00:33:47,192 --> 00:33:48,193
Min-gu.

434
00:33:59,204 --> 00:34:01,081
I didn't know it would go that far.

435
00:34:01,456 --> 00:34:04,251
I was just following
the Battalion Commander's orders.

436
00:34:04,668 --> 00:34:07,504
I would've been finished otherwise.
What choice did I have?

437
00:34:07,963 --> 00:34:09,839
He told me to send the money, so I did.

438
00:34:09,923 --> 00:34:11,049
Let's talk about this outside.

439
00:34:11,132 --> 00:34:12,384
The Deputy Battalion Commander,
Major Im Seung-bin

440
00:34:12,467 --> 00:34:14,386
found out about the kickbacks
from the supplier.

441
00:34:14,469 --> 00:34:15,470
Hey, you scumbag.

442
00:34:15,554 --> 00:34:17,681
So you framed him for everything
and drove him to his death.

443
00:34:17,764 --> 00:34:19,516
Was that on your direct orders,
Battalion Commander?

444
00:34:19,808 --> 00:34:21,017
Let's take this outside.

445
00:34:21,101 --> 00:34:23,645
I think we need an explanation,
Battalion Commander.

446
00:34:25,772 --> 00:34:28,692
Hey, you idiot.
What do you think you're doing? Darn it.

447
00:34:30,026 --> 00:34:31,695
Excuse me for a moment.

448
00:34:34,948 --> 00:34:36,283
Salute!

449
00:34:36,866 --> 00:34:38,952
Master Sergeant Park Jae-young,
Administration and Supply NCO

450
00:34:39,035 --> 00:34:40,870
for the 4th Company,
1st Battalion, 60th Regiment.

451
00:34:40,954 --> 00:34:42,998
I'm here on business
regarding the cooking competition.

452
00:34:43,081 --> 00:34:44,249
Salute!

453
00:34:47,544 --> 00:34:50,755
Lieutenant Colonel Baek Chun-ik.
We've managed to secure all the evidence.

454
00:34:50,839 --> 00:34:52,132
I'm sorry

455
00:34:53,133 --> 00:34:54,634
but I don't think
you'll be able to get out of this.

456
00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:57,178
- Investigators, please go ahead.
- Yes.

457
00:34:57,262 --> 00:34:58,471
Don't touch me. Darn it.

458
00:34:59,889 --> 00:35:01,474
What are you doing? Drag him out.

459
00:35:05,812 --> 00:35:09,316
I will return
after I have explained my position!

460
00:35:09,941 --> 00:35:11,901
Salute!

461
00:35:32,797 --> 00:35:36,426
29TH DIVISION COOKING COMPETITION

462
00:35:37,927 --> 00:35:39,763
- Company Commander.
- Company Commander!

463
00:35:39,846 --> 00:35:42,932
Oh my. What a mess.
You went through a lot.

464
00:35:43,558 --> 00:35:46,645
Geez, talk about timing.

465
00:35:46,728 --> 00:35:48,855
If I'd been just a little later,
it would've been a huge disaster.

466
00:35:48,938 --> 00:35:53,026
I was worried the competition
would be over by the time I arrived

467
00:35:53,777 --> 00:35:55,945
but thanks to Private First Class Kang
making it to a rematch

468
00:35:56,029 --> 00:35:59,532
- the timing was absolutely perfect.
- But hey, are you going to be okay?

469
00:35:59,616 --> 00:36:01,993
This will probably affect your promotion,
Company Commander.

470
00:36:02,243 --> 00:36:05,914
Well, what can you do?
I, Hwang Seok-ho, already did it.

471
00:36:06,539 --> 00:36:07,666
But still

472
00:36:08,458 --> 00:36:10,085
we can't let
any more injustices happen, right?

473
00:36:10,168 --> 00:36:11,169
Right.

474
00:36:12,671 --> 00:36:15,632
- You really went through it.
- Man, I'm beat.

475
00:36:16,591 --> 00:36:18,885
Cho Ye-rin. You did a great job.

476
00:36:21,221 --> 00:36:22,472
Not at all.

477
00:36:23,682 --> 00:36:24,766
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.

478
00:36:25,392 --> 00:36:26,518
Congratulations.

479
00:36:27,686 --> 00:36:30,563
- Thank you, sir.
- What are you congratulating him for?

480
00:36:30,647 --> 00:36:32,691
Master Sergeant Park, we won.

481
00:36:33,108 --> 00:36:35,777
First place? You're saying you won?

482
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:39,572
Oh my, Kang Seong-jae won. He won!

483
00:36:39,656 --> 00:36:42,742
Oh my, hey, Kang Seong-jae actually won!

484
00:36:55,088 --> 00:36:57,173
I learned a lot thanks to you,
Corporal Lee Ho-yeong.

485
00:36:57,674 --> 00:36:59,592
I hope we can meet again.

486
00:37:01,261 --> 00:37:03,471
Not at some small-time contest
like this one.

487
00:37:03,555 --> 00:37:06,224
Let's have a proper showdown.
Chef to chef.

488
00:37:07,308 --> 00:37:09,310
We'll see if that kind of home cooking
works then, too.

489
00:37:13,690 --> 00:37:17,819
- Look at him.
- Geez, showing off until the end.

490
00:37:17,902 --> 00:37:19,779
Man, he's got some great pride.

491
00:37:20,780 --> 00:37:22,866
I wonder if you just kicked
the hornet's nest.

492
00:37:24,325 --> 00:37:26,327
I think it'll be fun if we compete again.

493
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:28,788
Good. That's my guy.

494
00:37:30,498 --> 00:37:31,499
Let's go.

495
00:37:32,667 --> 00:37:33,668
Look at this.

496
00:37:35,170 --> 00:37:36,254
Hero,

497
00:37:36,337 --> 00:37:40,091
the Protect the Ganglim Outpost
quest is completed.

498
00:37:41,050 --> 00:37:42,385
By winning the cooking competition

499
00:37:42,469 --> 00:37:45,930
the Ganglim Outpost Shutdown
has been halted.

500
00:37:51,728 --> 00:37:54,022
- Kang Seong-jae, come on.
- Let's go.

501
00:37:54,105 --> 00:37:55,482
I'm coming.

502
00:38:04,783 --> 00:38:07,619
Hey, you were really amazing today.
You really were.

503
00:38:07,702 --> 00:38:10,789
You know what I was thinking
while I was crushing those biscuits?

504
00:38:10,872 --> 00:38:13,374
"Once I'm done crushing these,
I get to go home."

505
00:38:13,917 --> 00:38:17,045
But then suddenly, a tie! Then, a rematch!

506
00:38:17,921 --> 00:38:20,298
I thought the world was out to get me.

507
00:38:20,381 --> 00:38:23,051
Hey, Kang Seong-jae,
why were you just standing there

508
00:38:23,134 --> 00:38:25,470
after the first round spacing out
like you'd lost your soul?

509
00:38:25,553 --> 00:38:29,140
I thought he had a mental breakdown
and that I'd have to step in.

510
00:38:29,224 --> 00:38:31,142
That would have been awful.

511
00:38:31,726 --> 00:38:34,813
I think I was just really nervous.

512
00:38:34,896 --> 00:38:36,105
The Division Commander
was there and everything.

513
00:38:36,189 --> 00:38:39,275
Still, Kang Seong-jae
is definitely good under pressure.

514
00:38:39,359 --> 00:38:41,694
What? But then...

515
00:38:41,778 --> 00:38:45,281
- What is going to happen to our outpost?
- About that.

516
00:38:45,365 --> 00:38:47,492
Since the Division Commander mentioned

517
00:38:47,575 --> 00:38:50,495
that it was fine to leave Ganglim as is

518
00:38:50,578 --> 00:38:52,121
don't you think we'll just go back
to our regular duties?

519
00:38:52,205 --> 00:38:54,290
Gosh, Kang Seong-jae. On top of everything

520
00:38:54,374 --> 00:38:56,543
you even saved an outpost
from being shut down?

521
00:38:56,626 --> 00:38:59,254
Hey, you're really going
to make it big with your cooking.

522
00:39:00,046 --> 00:39:01,548
- That's amazing.
- That's amazing.

523
00:39:03,299 --> 00:39:07,595
GANGLIM OUTPOST

524
00:39:10,431 --> 00:39:14,769
- You did great!
- Great job! Yes!

525
00:39:14,853 --> 00:39:16,312
29TH DIVISION COOKING COMPETITION
1ST PLACE GOLDEN COOK AWARD

526
00:39:16,396 --> 00:39:18,273
Hey, why is everyone out here in the cold?

527
00:39:18,356 --> 00:39:21,442
We heard Kang Seong-jae won
and were waiting for you to get back.

528
00:39:21,526 --> 00:39:23,069
Kang Seong-jae, if you were any later

529
00:39:23,152 --> 00:39:25,488
everyone would've scattered
and started unpacking.

530
00:39:25,989 --> 00:39:28,533
- I couldn't wait to see you all.
- What on earth did you cook

531
00:39:28,616 --> 00:39:29,993
to stop the outpost from being shut down?

532
00:39:30,076 --> 00:39:34,497
Hey! You take some hot rice
and pile on some back ribs and kimchi

533
00:39:34,581 --> 00:39:37,333
and wrap it all up with seaweed
roasted in sesame oil...

534
00:39:37,876 --> 00:39:39,794
- Talking makes my mouth water.
- Oh, right.

535
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:42,255
We only cooked it,
but we never got to try it.

536
00:39:42,338 --> 00:39:44,048
- That's right.
- Yes!

537
00:39:44,132 --> 00:39:45,466
Oh, right.

538
00:39:47,010 --> 00:39:48,761
I'll prepare the meal right away!

539
00:39:50,889 --> 00:39:54,851
Hey, this reminds me of that time
we went to pick namul.

540
00:39:55,476 --> 00:39:57,228
I was so worried.

541
00:39:57,687 --> 00:39:59,898
You all worked so hard.

542
00:40:01,524 --> 00:40:02,525
Great job.

543
00:40:10,950 --> 00:40:12,744
Gosh, this is delicious.

544
00:40:13,286 --> 00:40:16,122
Eating this strangely puts me at ease.

545
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:17,582
It feels like I'm home.

546
00:40:17,665 --> 00:40:19,584
We arrived at the battalion headquarters

547
00:40:19,667 --> 00:40:21,127
and they suddenly told us to get on a bus.

548
00:40:21,210 --> 00:40:22,420
We were told to return to the outpost.

549
00:40:22,503 --> 00:40:24,505
So I wondered what was going on.

550
00:40:25,548 --> 00:40:26,674
I instinctively knew

551
00:40:26,758 --> 00:40:28,801
Kang Seong-jae had done something big.

552
00:40:28,885 --> 00:40:30,678
You must have been really surprised today.

553
00:40:31,179 --> 00:40:32,639
Kwan-cheol

554
00:40:33,139 --> 00:40:36,684
Dong-hyun, and Seong-jae,
you all worked so hard.

555
00:40:37,268 --> 00:40:40,605
- Yes, you did great.
- You did great!

556
00:40:40,688 --> 00:40:44,734
This kitchen still needs me.
It breaks my heart to leave.

557
00:40:44,817 --> 00:40:47,070
I just can't bring myself to leave.

558
00:40:48,237 --> 00:40:52,241
Well, that's why I prepared
something special for you.

559
00:40:56,746 --> 00:40:57,914
Is it pocket money?

560
00:40:57,997 --> 00:40:59,958
It's an application
for Specialist Sergeant.

561
00:41:03,753 --> 00:41:06,255
All right, everyone,
say hello to your new junior!

562
00:41:06,339 --> 00:41:08,257
Our very own Staff Sergeant
Yoon Dong-hyun!

563
00:41:11,219 --> 00:41:14,389
Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun,
that's the first time I've seen that look.

564
00:41:14,931 --> 00:41:16,975
That look on your face,
all serious and sweating buckets

565
00:41:17,058 --> 00:41:18,184
while you were cooking...

566
00:41:19,727 --> 00:41:21,771
What have you been doing all this time
to only show us that side of you now?

567
00:41:21,854 --> 00:41:24,857
It's the last chapter
of my military life, isn't it?

568
00:41:24,941 --> 00:41:28,236
I just thought it would be cool
to end it with a win.

569
00:41:28,319 --> 00:41:29,320
It's no big deal.

570
00:41:33,408 --> 00:41:35,576
Live a pure and clean life, like tofu!

571
00:41:35,660 --> 00:41:37,537
Congrats on your discharge,
Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun!

572
00:41:45,044 --> 00:41:47,213
Anyone watching would think you're
getting out of prison, not the army.

573
00:41:47,296 --> 00:41:49,590
He's being reborn, isn't he?
As a civilian.

574
00:41:49,674 --> 00:41:51,676
Your sense of humor has really improved.

575
00:41:51,759 --> 00:41:53,553
Dong-hyun, say a few words.

576
00:41:53,636 --> 00:41:54,887
Did you just call his name?

577
00:41:57,181 --> 00:41:58,850
- Jae-young!
- What?

578
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,104
- Ye-rin!
- Yes, go ahead. Say what you want.

579
00:42:03,187 --> 00:42:04,856
You wanted to do this, right?

580
00:42:07,066 --> 00:42:08,609
Man, really...

581
00:42:09,318 --> 00:42:11,154
So, this is the end of my time
in the kitchen.

582
00:42:12,155 --> 00:42:13,156
Kang Seong-jae.

583
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:14,824
Are you going to do this for me
when I get discharged too?

584
00:42:14,907 --> 00:42:17,118
Hey, TMI, have some tact.

585
00:42:17,243 --> 00:42:19,203
A Private First Class shouldn't be
talking about getting discharged.

586
00:42:20,204 --> 00:42:23,124
Seong-jae, if Kwan-cheol gets cocky
when he makes Sergeant

587
00:42:23,207 --> 00:42:24,625
just starve him. Got it?

588
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:26,961
All that knife work
was great mental training.

589
00:42:27,754 --> 00:42:29,589
- Have a seat.
- Yes, sir.

590
00:42:31,507 --> 00:42:32,967
Kang Seong-jae.

591
00:42:34,469 --> 00:42:35,678
Thanks for all the good food.

592
00:42:36,971 --> 00:42:39,766
It's all thanks to you,
Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun. Thank you.

593
00:42:41,350 --> 00:42:44,145
Oh, and there's one more thing!

594
00:42:45,521 --> 00:42:47,940
One, two, three! Ta-da!

595
00:42:57,158 --> 00:43:00,411
Hey, I can't eat something this cute.
It's adorable.

596
00:43:03,414 --> 00:43:05,249
Hey, how'd you make this?

597
00:43:05,333 --> 00:43:08,377
Gosh, he made rice inside an egg.

598
00:43:09,003 --> 00:43:11,839
- Sergeant Yoon, are you crying?
- No, I'm not.

599
00:43:11,923 --> 00:43:13,966
- Hey, are you crying?
- No, I'm not.

600
00:43:15,510 --> 00:43:17,845
- Don't cry!
- I'm not.

601
00:43:17,929 --> 00:43:22,183
- Don't cry!
- Don't cry!

602
00:43:22,266 --> 00:43:25,645
- Hey, this one's crying too!
- Why are you crying?

603
00:43:26,395 --> 00:43:28,439
Oh, come on, sir.

604
00:43:30,441 --> 00:43:32,318
Gosh, this is really moist.

605
00:43:34,112 --> 00:43:35,363
Come on, let's eat.

606
00:43:36,447 --> 00:43:37,448
Let's eat.

607
00:43:53,172 --> 00:43:55,341
- Is that the new recruit?
- Yes, sir.

608
00:43:58,678 --> 00:43:59,971
KANG SEONG-JAE

609
00:44:00,054 --> 00:44:02,765
- Kang Seong-jae.
- Private Kang Seong-jae.

610
00:44:04,934 --> 00:44:06,269
Here, use this.

611
00:44:06,644 --> 00:44:08,020
Oh, thank you.

612
00:44:09,021 --> 00:44:10,022
Hey...

613
00:44:12,191 --> 00:44:14,527
Can't you just stay here?

614
00:44:26,164 --> 00:44:29,625
- Grab my hand. Quick!
- Thank you.

615
00:44:36,632 --> 00:44:38,342
Company, attention!

616
00:44:40,428 --> 00:44:43,389
Salute Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun,
now a civilian!

617
00:44:43,472 --> 00:44:47,059
- Salute!
- Salute!

618
00:44:48,519 --> 00:44:51,564
- At ease.
- Is that the loudest you can be?

619
00:44:51,647 --> 00:44:53,691
I can just imagine what a mess
the Ganglim Outpost

620
00:44:53,774 --> 00:44:56,360
- will be without me.
- You should worry about yourself.

621
00:44:56,444 --> 00:45:00,031
I don't care what you do out there,
but seriously, just don't cook.

622
00:45:01,282 --> 00:45:02,533
But what can I do?

623
00:45:02,617 --> 00:45:04,911
I've developed an interest in cooking.

624
00:45:06,162 --> 00:45:08,581
If you get a job at a restaurant,
let us know where.

625
00:45:08,664 --> 00:45:10,249
So we can make sure we never go there.

626
00:45:10,333 --> 00:45:14,128
These punks are getting cocky
just because I'm a civilian now.

627
00:45:15,755 --> 00:45:17,089
Attention.

628
00:45:19,508 --> 00:45:21,135
You've all worked hard.

629
00:45:22,803 --> 00:45:24,263
Just hang in there a little longer.

630
00:45:25,681 --> 00:45:26,933
And...

631
00:45:30,770 --> 00:45:32,772
I was truly grateful for everything.

632
00:45:44,325 --> 00:45:46,827
- Especially you, Kang Seong-jae.
- Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.

633
00:45:46,911 --> 00:45:48,120
You're really...

634
00:45:50,915 --> 00:45:53,626
I can't figure you out.
Until the very end.

635
00:45:55,044 --> 00:45:56,796
Thank you for your hard work, sir.

636
00:46:00,258 --> 00:46:03,052
I'm heading out. It's cold.
You guys go on in. See ya.

637
00:46:03,678 --> 00:46:06,347
- Take care, sir.
- Thank you for your hard work.

638
00:46:06,430 --> 00:46:07,890
Hey, Dong-hyun.

639
00:46:07,974 --> 00:46:09,642
- Take care.
- Take care.

640
00:46:10,434 --> 00:46:13,521
- I'm off. Mun-ik, I'm really going.
- Go on, you old man!

641
00:46:31,205 --> 00:46:33,416
KANG SEONG-JAE'S RECIPE NOTE

642
00:46:37,295 --> 00:46:38,546
It feels like a dream.

643
00:46:42,675 --> 00:46:45,344
Today, we're meeting someone
who, at the last cooking competition

644
00:46:45,428 --> 00:46:47,805
took first place,
Private First Class Kang Seong-jae.

645
00:46:47,888 --> 00:46:52,059
Well, first, I was so grateful
that my fellow outpost soldiers

646
00:46:52,143 --> 00:46:55,438
congratulated me, and most of all...

647
00:46:55,521 --> 00:46:59,150
I'm just so glad I get to see
my fellow soldiers again.

648
00:46:59,233 --> 00:47:02,486
Well, when people eat my food

649
00:47:02,570 --> 00:47:04,822
I hope they feel like they've come home

650
00:47:04,905 --> 00:47:06,449
and they can feel comfortable.

651
00:47:06,532 --> 00:47:09,368
Filling the hearts of his comrades
with a single warm meal

652
00:47:09,452 --> 00:47:12,163
this is Private First Class Kang Seong-jae
of the Ganglim Outpost.

653
00:47:12,246 --> 00:47:15,207
This is Jeong Min-a,
reporting for Armed Forces TV.

654
00:47:16,083 --> 00:47:19,170
GANGLIM OUTPOST

655
00:47:27,386 --> 00:47:29,221
So how's work? You managing okay?

656
00:47:31,098 --> 00:47:33,684
It's tough, but it's still fun.

657
00:47:36,395 --> 00:47:38,689
I'm glad it seems to be
a good fit for you.

658
00:47:38,773 --> 00:47:40,024
Oh, right.

659
00:47:40,107 --> 00:47:42,068
I was so surprised when I saw you.

660
00:47:42,151 --> 00:47:44,528
I knew you were a good cook

661
00:47:44,612 --> 00:47:46,489
but I had no idea
you were that serious about it.

662
00:47:47,114 --> 00:47:48,324
It was really impressive.

663
00:47:51,535 --> 00:47:52,787
Thanks.

664
00:47:57,958 --> 00:47:59,710
There's that pretty smile again.

665
00:48:00,503 --> 00:48:04,382
Gosh, waiting for you
to get out of the army is taking forever.

666
00:48:21,816 --> 00:48:24,151
What? Out of the blue?

667
00:48:26,612 --> 00:48:29,448
This was always so hard for me.

668
00:48:31,784 --> 00:48:35,287
I guess it's because
I wasn't sure of myself yet.

669
00:48:40,084 --> 00:48:41,752
So you're more confident now?

670
00:48:49,844 --> 00:48:52,638
But what if someone sees us?

671
00:48:58,727 --> 00:49:02,231
"Certificate of Commendation.
Captain Hwang Seok-ho."

672
00:49:02,314 --> 00:49:05,401
"This unit,
for its systematic unit management..."

673
00:49:05,484 --> 00:49:06,485
Right?

674
00:49:06,569 --> 00:49:09,697
"Something... So he is hereby
awarded this commendation."

675
00:49:09,780 --> 00:49:12,366
"Division Commander,
Major General Kim In-tae."

676
00:49:15,202 --> 00:49:17,163
Congratulations again, Company Commander.

677
00:49:17,246 --> 00:49:18,873
If it weren't for all of you

678
00:49:18,956 --> 00:49:20,458
I, Hwang Seok-ho,
couldn't have done anything.

679
00:49:20,541 --> 00:49:21,917
And it's not just our Company Commander.

680
00:49:22,001 --> 00:49:25,921
You all saw that our Ganglim Outpost
was selected as the best one, right?

681
00:49:26,005 --> 00:49:28,132
What would've happened
if they'd shut down a post like this?

682
00:49:28,299 --> 00:49:29,925
It would've been a huge mistake.

683
00:49:30,009 --> 00:49:33,429
I know, right?
I'm so glad it all worked out.

684
00:49:33,512 --> 00:49:35,973
You all went through so much trouble
because of me.

685
00:49:37,683 --> 00:49:39,143
- Master Sergeant.
- Yes.

686
00:49:39,226 --> 00:49:41,604
From now on,
go a little easier on the makgeolli

687
00:49:41,687 --> 00:49:44,982
- and don't pick so many namul.
- There he goes again, nagging.

688
00:49:45,065 --> 00:49:48,235
Well, our Company Commander
Hwang Seok-ho is back to his old self.

689
00:49:49,862 --> 00:49:50,863
Ye-rin.

690
00:49:50,946 --> 00:49:52,698
From now on, no matter what anyone says

691
00:49:52,781 --> 00:49:55,451
keep being yourself
and always speak your mind.

692
00:49:57,620 --> 00:49:59,246
Understood, Company Commander.

693
00:49:59,705 --> 00:50:02,124
Hey, she'd do that
even if you didn't tell her to.

694
00:50:03,834 --> 00:50:05,419
- Isn't that right?
- That's right.

695
00:50:08,506 --> 00:50:10,549
All right, let's go eat.

696
00:50:10,799 --> 00:50:13,552
- Where to? Outside?
- To the mess hall.

697
00:50:14,303 --> 00:50:16,889
The mess hall? All right, let's go.

698
00:50:16,972 --> 00:50:20,643
I wonder what delicious thing
Seong-jae has cooked up for us today. Huh?

699
00:50:20,726 --> 00:50:21,727
Right.

700
00:50:33,822 --> 00:50:35,407
Making rice at dawn every day

701
00:50:35,491 --> 00:50:38,285
getting cut by knives,
and burning my hands

702
00:50:38,369 --> 00:50:39,745
I slowly began to understand.

703
00:50:43,916 --> 00:50:47,628
That a single meal I make
can give someone strength.

704
00:50:49,088 --> 00:50:52,466
That its warmth can move a person's heart.

705
00:50:56,053 --> 00:50:58,931
Making one meal
with all your heart every day.

706
00:51:02,476 --> 00:51:05,896
That was the beginning of the legend.

707
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:12,152
Hero, a new quest has arrived.

708
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,906
The Legend Begins.

709
00:51:16,699 --> 00:51:20,828
Become a cook who is recognized
in the Officers' Mess.

710
00:51:24,164 --> 00:51:26,625
Do you wish to proceed?

711
00:51:32,423 --> 00:51:35,009

I'm truly grateful.

717
00:52:19,928 --> 00:52:21,138
Start wearing this today.

718
00:52:23,974 --> 00:52:27,394

Salute!

720
00:52:33,108 --> 00:52:34,234
Warning.

721
00:52:40,616 --> 00:52:42,242
I can't hear you!

722
00:52:47,539 --> 00:52:49,208

723
00:52:49,291 --> 00:52:50,417
