(Finishing Touch)

(Closed)

Good work today everyone.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Good work. - Good work.

Wait.

What is it?

Will we have a staff party since we have a new chef?

- Yes! - Staff party!

Starting tomorrow, we'll start selling...

jajangmyeon, jjampong, and wonton noodles...

as a single dish.

Well, at the competition we had,

when Chef Wang wanted to make jajangmyeon,

everyone didn't like it and opposed it.

Now you want to sell jajangmyeon?

At lunch,

we'll sell them for the same price as the neighborhood restaurants.

Selling them as single dish means...

you'll accept customers...

who will only order...

jajangmyeon, jjampong, and wonton noodles.

That doesn't make sense.

VIP customers spend over 200 dollars per table.

If we follow your order, 4 people per table will...

spend only 24 dollars.

That's only a tenth of what we could make.

Why do these people have to work so hard...

to cook jajangmyeon and jjampong...

to earn 24 dollars per table?

We can make money...

during dinner time.

We have a lot of group VIP customers...

and course menu orders during dinner time,

so we can show the essence of Chinese cuisine then.

And we can charge the same.

Do you think we came to work at a hotel...

to make jajangmyeon and jjampong?

Why do we have to be like the neighborhood restaurant cooks?

Why would you make 24 dollars per table...

when you can make more than 200?

The dining hall is completely empty during lunch time,

so let's make cheap, delicious dish...

to fill it up with customers.

Even if nine tables are empty...

and only one table is full,

it's better to make haute cuisine and make 200 dollars.

The hotel VIP customers,

if they see this place crowded with people like a public market,

they won't come here for dinner.

"They make jajangmyeon and jjampong."

"It's like a public market." If rumors start to spread,

we'll lose all the VIP customers at dinner time.

A hotel must be luxurious like a hotel.

Don't people come to a hotel to enjoy that?

To be frank,

cheap jajangmyeon, jjampong, wonton noodles...

I don't want to make it.

I know...

there are some hotels...

serving jajangmyeon.

They get 30 dollars for that though.

Our chefs have at least 10 years of experience.

Why do high-quality human resources like us...

make cheap jajangmyeon and jjampong for a public market?

You can't talk about class when it comes to food.

Working at a hotel doesn't make you a great chef.

Working at a neighborhood restaurant doesn't make you a poor cook either.

Even though the customers pay 200 dollars,

if they leave a lot of food, that means you are not a good chef.

However, even if they pay only 10 dollars,

if they don't leave any food, that means you are a good chef.

That's how you find out if you are really good or not.

Make customers feel pressured just because they are at the hotel...

doesn't sound like what real chefs would do.

Let's serve more people...

and bring back more empty dishes back in this room.

That's what I want to say.

I'm not looking down on your ability now.

I agree with you!

Be quiet!

Let's have a talk.

Did you hold me back for jajangmyeon and jjampong?

You became weird after coming back.

Are you going to take the responsibility for losing sales?

If we sell single dishes, we'll have higher turnovers.

We can definitely make more sales.

People are losing interest in Chinese food because it's greasy.

Besides, they can't even come here because we're at an expensive hotel.

Let's not give up on them and make them our customers.

You are going to make us cheap in no time.

We are capable of making a dish worth 60, or even 600 dollars.

How can making six-dollar meal make you guys cheap?

- Let's try it from tomorrow. - What I mean is...

Why do I have to work like I'm at a neighborhood restaurant?

Poong,

why don't you do it?

We don't want to waste our skills.

How dare you!

It's ruining my appetite.

Lean on that pole...

and pray for yourself. Hope that the CEO of Ultra Construction...

doesn't reveal your name so that you don't lock up in jail.

If you were born cheap,

just live cheaply and die cheaply too.

How dare you thinking about becoming rich?

You want to bully us, don't you.

- Shut your mouth. - Maeng Dal.

Don't hit him.

It's not worth it.

Yes, sir.

Why are you guys like this to me?

You. You made Crooked...

blackmail my customers and cut my money.

At the end, you were going to sort out your money problem...

when Chilseong Building is put up for auction.

Do you think I didn't know that?

I just did the same thing you did.

Why?

Does that feel nice to steal someone else's?

Not only the building, you also hit on his woman, you thief.

Is that why you tried your hardest to get the protest right...

and actually did that in front of the hotel?

You tried to put up the hotel for auction.

I lost my appetite, sir.

The competition at Finishing Touch...

Is it because of Poong?

That's right.

My baby brother, that you've bullied for a long time.

I wanted to introduce him as a new chef...

for your hotel's Chinese restaurant.

It's just because of Poong...

Why do you bully people...

who have less than you?

You are talking like the Almighty.

You are just a loan shark.

I don't lend money anymore.

I also stopped...

being a gangster.

Do you know why?

My mom is very, very...

about me.

- You are calling me right there. - It's fun.

Are you okay?

I knew it was going to be difficult to convince everyone right away.

Well, I'm not the only chef here.

I'll try it again tomorrow.

I'm so sorry for not having any power to...

help you...

when you are going through this.

You standing there really helps me.

It's helpful...

when you're standing there and not getting scolded by Sam Seon.

When you get scolded by the Fire Part, it drives me crazy.

It doesn't feel like you are getting scolded.

It feels like they are talking to me.

It's like they are scolding me.

It makes me mad.

Do your best...

at assisting Sam Seon.

Yes, chef.

Let's go home. I'll give you a ride.

- This early? - What do you mean?

You didn't go home yesterday either.

My dad is sleeping now.

- Right. - My dad goes to bed early!

He sleeps early,

so that's why he came here yesterday at this hour?

Do you feel great when you only say right things?

Don't make fun of me.

To be frank, I'm sad,

afraid,

and anxious.

Why do I have to feel sad?

It's because your parents hate me.

It really makes me feel I'm not good enough.

I'm not sure how long you'll be like this to me.

So I feel anxious.

That's how I feel.

You're stupid. It's not because you are not good enough!

It's because I'm not good enough.

That's why my parents are being picky.

They want someone to make up what I lack.

You should never think that way!

Because I failed once.

Yes, my mom still hasn't gotten her head straight,

but I did.

So...

just look at me.

I can't just look at you.

Just look at me!

I do that to you! Why can't you do the same for me?

Whether I'm in the kitchen or not,

I can't just focus on you.

You can do that when you are not in the kitchen.

You said you've never let down your parents before.

Just focus on me.

I'm warning you.

Just look at me.

(Hungry Wok)

(The chefs at Hungry Wok are now at Finishing Touch.)

(The chefs at Hungry Wok are now at Finishing Touch.)

(You can have jajangmyeon, jjampong, and wonton noodles...)

(for the same price at Finishing Touch.)

(Hungry Wok)

(Written Appraisal)

Gosh!

Go on a blind date.

Stop running away like a rabbit,

and just look at me.

Go on a blind date already?

Does someone want to date me?

Yes.

There are many men who want to date you.

Your dad will start working today as the CEO of an investment firm.

I don't know if you're the 20th or the 30th in line...

at the kitchen, but forget it.

Look into opening a fencing school again.

Do what you love.

You'll get your car back tomorrow.

Mom, I like Poong.

If you're telling me to do what I love, why do you hate Poong?

Go on a blind date.

Go on 10 dates and meet 10 men.

If you still like Poong then,

we can talk.

I won't do it.

I'm leaving.

Why is this...

on here so tight?

Boss.

How's...

Poong's kitchen?

It's going well.

Hey.

We're short on money now.

Should we take off all the money on these walls?

There should be over 100,000 dollars.

No.

Even if we're short on money,

the money here is meant for something else in the future.

Leave it.

But we're in a bind.

Maeng Dal.

Yes?

The moment we first...

plastered money on as wallpaper,

all this money already had an owner.

What?

No way.

Honey.

They're selling jajangmyeon and wonton noodles at the hotel.

- Should we go there? - Yes, let's go.

- Let's get wonton noodles. - We can share.

(Hungry Wok and Finishing Touch have consolidated.)

(You can have jajangmyeon, jjampong, and wonton noodles...)

(for the same price at Finishing Touch.)

- The number... - This is driving me crazy.

Why aren't they here yet?

- Welcome. How many? - Two.

Two? She'll show you in.

[VIU Ver] SBS E36 Wok of Love "Send Sae Woo Home" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

The number you're calling is not available.

Cutting Part isn't picking up either.

Wait.

Are they not coming because they don't want to make jajangmyeon?

How strange.

What's so wrong with jajangmyeon and jjampong?

The number you're calling is not available.

Can we still run the restaurant today...

without Cutting Part, Noodle Part, and Fire Part heads?

(Order)

Yes, I'll be right there.

Can I help you with your order?

That's 2 jajangmyeons, 2 jjampongs, and 1 wonton noodles.

It'll be right out.

I'll take your order.

Tables 3 and 5 ordered...

3 jajangmyeons and 4 jajangmyeons.

Bo Ra, you're the head Cutting Part for today. I'll be the Fire Part.

Prepare for seven jajangmyeons.

Places!

- Yes, chef! - Yes, chef!

Move!

Sae Woo, come assist me.

Stick right close to me.

Oh Maeng Dal!

Come next to me.

I'll cut for jajangmyeon. You can cut for jjampong.

- What? - Hurry up!

I Man, precook the jjampong.

- Help me. - Yes, chef!

Right now, we have a total of 18 jajangmyeon orders,

15 jjampong orders,

and wonton noodles...

Wonton...

How many, chef?

There are 25 wonton noodles!

What if we run out of ingredients?

Dong Sik, where are the dumpling shells?

How many do you need?

Just make as much as you can for now!

Yes, chef!

- I have ingredients for three. - Okay.

- Get me four more. - Okay.

Okay.

Prepare four more jajangmyeon ingredients.

Sae Woo, help me.

- Okay, they're good to go. - Yes, chef.

Take this over for me.

Dong Sik, are you almost ready?

The dim sum in the wonton noodles will take a while.

They're all office workers. We can't take long.

Good to go!

- Good to go! - Good to go!

- Sae Woo, clean this up. - Yes, chef.

What about the jjampong broth?

- What? - The broth.

Right.

(Crab fried rice)

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

May I take your order?

Can you call the chef for me?

- Right now? - Yes. Right now.

Aren't you here to eat?

The kitchen is really busy right now.

Please call him.

Are Geok Jeong and Seol Ja coming or not?

I'm going crazy.

Chef.

Do I keep going?

It smells burnt. Do it over. Lower the fire.

Darn it.

- Sae Woo. - Yes, chef.

How did you know I'd order for these?

I saw the order.

Okay.

Chili powder.

Okay.

Chef, a customer is asking for you.

A customer?

- Now? - Yes, now.

Are you here?

We want to talk in private.

Yes, ma'am.

I came to take Sae Woo.

Are you trying to fight me?

No.

Let Sae Woo go...

while I keep my manners...

and ask you politely.

Let me take her home.

Mother.

Are you okay with seeing her having to work so hard?

How are you so cruel? Do you call that love?

I know what the kitchen is like.

Sae Woo's dad has never been in the kitchen...

so he might not know,

but had he tried it, he wouldn't let Sae Woo stay here.

If you...

won't let her go,

I'll go inside now and drag her out by force.

Right now.

I need to talk to you.

What is it?

Go home.

Your mom's here.

Go home.

What?

Go home.

The Fire Parts aren't here,

and the kitchen's a mess, but you want me to go home?

Am not a cook?

Do you not need me?

I don't need you.

Go.

She's waiting. You should go.

Thank you for this.

By the way,

we had to make a dish...

I had never even heard about for dinner.

I couldn't even sit down for a minute or eat anything.

Today was the first day, and I had never seen such chaos.

Gosh, seriously.

Poong was doing everything he could to make it work.

Even during lunch,

some menus got served late, and some didn't even get served at all.

It was a complete mess.

I'm worried that our dinner customers might end up decreasing.

On top of that, it's also because none of the Fire Parts,

Cutting Parts, and Noodle Parts came to the kitchen. Those jerks.

Anyway, enough of that. But seriously,

when are you going to start working?

We can only go once we get permission from Mr. Dan.

My gosh.

Seol Ja, should we just leave the house?

Are you crazy?

We can't just end our relationship with Ms. Jin like that.

She cared so much for us when we were going through a hard time.

Did you forget about that?

Hey, Buster.

I'm sorry.

Have you been well?

I'm sorry I didn't visit for such a long time.

I'm sorry. I was too busy.

(Seo Poong)

I'm sorry.

Don't be upset.

Please?

Get rid of the single menus for lunch.

Then we'll go back.

I told you that I can make this work if you help me out.

(Seo Poong)

Ms. Chae, hasn't Sae Woo come home yet?

No.

Ms. Jin came home all by herself.

(Hungry Wok)

(Hungry Wok)

Dim Sum.

Come here.

Where's your dad, Sae Woo?

Where is she?

Hey, Sae Woo.

I'll see you at the bus station.

Are you going to break up with me...

if my mom keeps disapproving?

Where were you all day?

I'm going to go back to Finishing Touch...

tomorrow, okay?

Then what about the day after tomorrow?

Can I go tomorrow?

Fine.

Let's break up.

I can't date a guy who can't even go up against my mom.

Let's end it

Sae Woo.

(Wok of Love)

I'll start working here starting from early tomorrow morning.

You're out.

Those jerks bid 59 million dollars.

We don't have enough money to win the auction.

The final successful bidder for Giant Hotel is...

I'll sleep here as well.

Let's run away.

Why don't you just live here and fight against Ms. Jin?

My goodness. Mother.

Are you crazy?

Mother, we really don't get along well.
