EDAE COFFEE

Hello.

-It's your first day of work.
-Yes.

Let's do our best.

I look forward to working with you.

LABORER: KANG GO-BI

-Welcome!
-Did the owner change?

-The sign is the same…
-Welcome.

Hello. I just thought
there was a new owner for a second.

We have a new addition to our family.

Hello.

-What would you like?
-An iced Americano, please.

Sure.

The two Americanos are ready.

-Hello.
-Welcome.

-You got a part-timer?
-A member of our family.

I saw you lingering
around the front door before.

I guess that was sort of
an internship period.

Congratulations.

Is that something to celebrate?
The owner here is no ordinary person.

I look forward to serving you.

Please, don't hesitate
to visit us during lunchtime as well.

We should be the ones
getting on your good side.

Our lunch hour is precious.

We look forward to it.

Grab them.

You should have lunch.

I packed some sandwiches,
would you like some?

The café will pay for lunch,
so you don't need to pack in the future.

Okay.

But we won't be able
to have lunch together today.

Ms. Kim contacted me out of the blue.

Did something happen?

I don't think it's anything big…

Don't worry. Take your time.

You call me out for lunch
and make me climb a mountain?

The unobstructed view is nice.

It is indeed nice.

-Let's eat some gimbap.
-Gimbap?

-You must be hungry.
-I am.

It looks good.

How does it feel to experience
such luxury in the middle of a weekday?

It's nice.

Yeah? But should you be doing this
on Go-bi's first day?

Why not?

It didn't seem like he was perceptive
about things like this.

Yeah?

Shall we try some?

It's good.

Thank you. Come again.

Welcome.

-The owner isn't here?
-He went on a date.

Oh, which is why we can't do
any pour-overs right now.

-Then I'll take a shot of espresso.
-Okay.

-Did you want to pay now?
-Oh, I'll pay on my way out.

Sure.

Go-bi should be doing okay, right?

I thought I saw some nerves.

Right? Even if you worked part-time
at a café a long time…

-No. You, Seok.
-Me? No, I'm fine.

Let's go.

No, I'm fine. We can stay a bit longer.

Guys that have eaten steak before
know how to eat it.

The same goes for leisure.

Do I not look leisurely to you?

Let's go find leisure. To Edae Coffee.

Awkward. Awkward…

Did your date go well?

-Are you leaving?
-Yes.

Take care.

-Bye.
-Bye.

-I think we got caught.
-How?

Welcome.

Wow, the outfit makes you look legit.

-Did you have lunch?
-Of course.

Any customers?

There was a total of seven people.
Four left because you weren't here.

Two had Americanos
and the other had an espresso.

Let's all have a cup of coffee.

Here we go.

I live for this.

How is it?

How should I put it…
It's like meeting a friend in a dream?

-A friend?
-One that was estranged after a fight.

Some parts were quite bitter
and other parts, too sour.

I figured it wasn't going to
work out with that friend.

An affinity doesn't appear
out of thin air.

You need to refine and polish it.

He really likes to refine and polish.

But how many people do you think
drink coffee based on affinity?

For me, it's a work buddy
that helps me wake up.

To be honest, me too.

Was that it?

I'm sure there are people who drank
your coffee and discovered their affinity.

-You two fought again?
-Pardon?

Your friend.

No, we hung out.

We hung out in a field
of flowers and picked some fruit to eat.

We shared some chocolate, too.

That's nice.

Then try making it again. That friend.

-Pardon?
-Espresso.

Okay.

This…

The grinder mesh and espresso machine
settings were all reset.

-Why all of a sudden?
-And?

We should call the service center--

Why would we,
when I was the one who did it?

-Pardon?
-Start with the settings

and then recreate the flavor
of the espresso you just tasted.

-I'll give you an hour.
-This isn't Korean Food War.

What are you going to do
when customers come in?

That's true.

I wanted a latte…

Let's go somewhere else.
There's a café on every corner.

-No, I wanted a latte from here.
-Let's go.

Due to a machine malfunction,
we can only serve pour-overs.

Espresso based drinks
are currently not available.

Hello.

Ga-won? Hey.

-Hey, Ga-won.
-I thought the machine was broken.

I'm the one that's broken. I am.

We've switched over
from boss and employee's first day

to master and disciple's
reckless training.

Come on, sir, that's taking it too far.
It's his first day.

I think I got it.

You want us to drink this?

Your evaluations would be
the most accurate.

So, is this free?

-How is it?
-I'm late for my academy class.

It's almost time for Hye-ji to come home.

-Bye.
-Goodbye.

Maybe they're busy?

I apologize.

-You're all done?
-Yes.

-Let's go home.
-Oh, can I… stay a little bit longer?

Why?

I'll return the machine
to its original settings.

That doesn't happen overnight.

That's true.

If I leave like this, I feel like
I'll only be thinking about this.

Okay then. Make sure to lock up.

I severely underestimated it.

I'll compensate you for
the café's lost business and beans today.

I'm the owner.

The responsibility is also for me to bear.

EPISODE 2 GO-BI, GO-BI? GO-BI!

DEPUTY SECTION CHIEF PARK SOO-JIN

Hey, Ms. Park.

Yeah, I'm back in the country.
I'm on my way home.

Forget it. Someone has to go in the end.

But what's up? It's late.

What are you talking about?

Stop avoiding the subject
and get to the point. What?

They've really gone too far.

They want someone
who hasn't even gone home yet

to write up a report for the staff meeting
early tomorrow morning?

Did that punk Mr. Kwak ask for it?

I'm the one who went on the business trip,
how can you write up the report?

KWAK-KWAK-YI

Ugh, this damn pain in my butt.
Oh, no, no, no.

Not you. Mr. Kwak is calling me.
I'm going to hang up now.

Mr. Kwak.

Yes, yes. The trip went well. Yes.

Oh, no, I'm not tired at all.

Yes.

They should've closed ages ago.

Pressure, nine bars. Water, 93 degrees.

The portafilter tared.

The fragrance seems set.

Measure out exactly 18 grams.

Level out once again.

Tamping.

Total extraction time, 30 seconds.

Extraction amount, 30 ml.

There's no way this can be bad.

Welcome.

I was actually dying
for coffee from this place.

This is seriously divine intervention.

But the owner isn't here?

Oh, he left for the day.
We're closed for the day.

Aren't you making coffee right now?

-It is… I apologize.
-I should be the one to apologize.

I'll just have exactly one cup
and disappear.

Espresso, double shot. It won't take long.

I shouldn't.

I feel like I can only endure tonight
if I drink that. Please.

The last one was too bitter
and dry because it was over-extracted.

Switch the mesh to grossa
and make the ground coarse.

Why are you doing this to me?

My boss is obsessed with climbing
the ladder and I'm about to lose it.

I just wanted to have
some tasty coffee and cheer up.

Is that too much to ask for?

Hello.

-Were you here late last night?
-No. I left a little after you left.

EDAE COFFEE

Let's get started
after we have an espresso.

Okay.

Welcome. Look who it is.
It's been so long, Ji-young.

I've been really busy recently.

I guess running the machine
all night finally broke it?

No, that's not it.

I realized I didn't pay
for the coffee I drank last night.

I stopped by
for an espresso from Mr. Park as well.

Well, you don't have to pay for yesterday.

But we can't make you an espresso today.

It doesn't seem like you can't.

Well…

We're in the middle of research.

That's great.
I'll participate in that research.

-Give me a cup.
-I don't think so.

-Why not?
-The pride of Edae Coffee is at stake.

You weren't hurt
by what I said yesterday, right?

I want to serve you
a finished cup of coffee.

Spirit, good.

But how can you reach
a finished product without feedback?

I told you, I'll help you.

You need to finish
that research quickly if I want to drink

Mr. Park's espresso again, right?

But… don't you need to go to work?

Can't you feel
the relaxed aura of someone on PTO?

DEPUTY SECTION CHIEF PARK SOO-JIN

Hey, Ms. Park.
Was there something wrong with the report?

I guess the all-nighter paid off.
Thank you for the good news.

Then what is it?

What are you talking about?

Stop avoiding the subject
and get to the point.

Afternoon? Today?

They want someone on PTO
to do a presentation for the CEO?

Do they think I'm some sort of machine?

They just press the button and I… I… I…

just spit out reports
and presentations like a printer? Do I?

They're just going all out,
aren't they! I'm hanging up.

KWAK-KWAK-YI

You scratch my back
and I'll scratch yours.

Pardon?

Espresso.

Is this scorched-rice water or coffee?
It's too watery.

You measured out
the correct amount of coffee grounds?

I matched the leveling
of the one before it at 18g.

You changed the grounds as well, right?

-Yes.
-Measure it again.

Don't trust your eyes.

-This one is kind of… salty?
-It's salty?

-Your palate is a bit--
-Over-extraction.

You tasted correctly, Ji-young.

Wait, but I extracted
for exactly 30 seconds.

When the conditions change,
so do the accuracy standards.

It doesn't matter if it's 25 seconds.
Use your eyes. Watch the drip.

You told me to not trust my eyes.

Feel it.

It's bitter. It's just hollow.

I changed it
to a coarser ground and it's bitter?

Before you adjusted the grinder mesh,
did you clean out the dosing funnel?

Pardon?

Some of the finer grounds
from earlier got mixed in.

Either be prepared
to throw away about two cups…

or be mindful of the ground remains
that will be mixed in

and adjust the extraction time.

Mr. Park would definitely prefer
the latter, no?

Just throw out two cups worth.

Okay.

First, press the extraction button.
Don't just trust the machine.

See what kind of condition
it's in for a few seconds.

And see how much drips out at first.
If it's uneven on one side,

that means the pressure inside is uneven.
Which means, that during tamping,

you could be applying
more pressure to one side.

It's not always best to do 25 ml, 35 ml.

Look at the amount
and the color with your eyes.

Don't think about the operating loss.

What you need right now
is the skill to precisely determine

the result you want
and the plan to get you there.

Was making a shot of espresso
always this difficult?

Yeah. I thought it just comes out
when you press this button.

It does come out
when you press that button.

It's just a shame
that all the effort that goes in

before the button is pressed
goes unseen.

He was me and I was him.

Me?

I think it'll be
a bit different this time.

-Where are you going?
-My office.

-You're on PTO today.
-Thank you.

-Was the last shot of espresso okay?
-Not you. Mr. Park.

I'm leaving here consoled.

Does the taste
of my espresso make people go to work?

You contributed as well.

Pardon?

Sometimes when you're going through
a tough time,

it's helpful just
to have someone know that.

Or she's just drunk off the caffeine.

Was it okay?

We can sell that.

-That means--
-That doesn't mean it's good.

Let's prepare for the lunch rush.

Okay.

-Welcome.
-Yes. Hello, Mr. Kim.

-Yes, I'm at the office.
-Was our café an office?

Let's order drinks later.

Isn't that customer taking it
a bit too far?

He just orders two measly cups of coffee
while occupying that table all day.

I'm sorry,
but could you move your feet…

I haven't seen him in a few days.

Is he not coming back because of me?

So, why act cold
when you can't even be harsh?

You know, it's like…

something that bothers you
for some strange reason.
