All language subtitles for Would You Like a Cup of Coffee E06

You should have lunch.

Go-bi?

Huh?

You should have lunch.

Yes, we should have lunch. Let's go.

Who's going to watch the café?

Oh, I wasn't thinking.
You should go ahead first.

Okay.

EPISODE 6: WAITER

I guess the lunch rush was no joke today.

It wasn't busy.

Then, why would Go-bi be so out of it?

Because it wasn't busy.

What are you talking about now?

Welcome.

It's been a while, Joo-hee.

It has. Have you been well, Ms. Kim?

We're here to drop this off.
You can just put the cookies in that bag.

I was going to stop by Tuesday morning
to get it.

We thought we'd grab lunch
while we're here.

Oh, then I'll give you the cookies
when you leave.

Did you fix the coffee machine issue?

Yes. I changed the grinder blade
as you told me

and now it's tasting the way it used to.

Even if it doesn't look broken,
it affects the flavors?

Exactly. Nothing is easy.

There are things you can see
only after looking for a long time.

I couldn't see anything.

-Enjoy.
-Thank you.

It looks delicious.

Is Ga-won still working hard?

Always.

That's good. You were really worried
about her straying for a while.

I was?

-I wasn't worried.
-Come on, you totally were.

Just for a quick second?

It's not like I can do anything for her.

It's best to give up quickly
if it doesn't seem like the right fit.

The two of you
are curiously similar in a way.

Ms. Kim and me?

There are things you can see
only after looking for a long time.

It's good. Eat up.

So what are you going to do?

What can I do?
He needs to overcome it by himself.

See! See!

Wait, hold on.

Inspiration for your writing?

No, Ga-won has been begging you
to collaborate on a menu item forever.

Although nothing came of it
because someone adamantly refused to.

Adamant seems a bit harsh.

Doesn't change anything.
How about putting Go-bi in charge of that?

No, I don't think that's the way to go.

What the…?
Why don't your words match your face?

EDAE COFFEE

TODAY'S ROAST

Aren't you hungry?

I'm fine.

-Hey, Go-bi.
-Hello.

-Can you make me an Americano?
-Sure.

Go and eat lunch.

I'll go after I make Joo-hee's coffee.

Are people on some group trip
or something?

There are just no customers, none at all.

Yeah.

What's wrong?
Are you worried about the business?

No.

Firm answer.

It looks like Mr. Park
wants to tell you something.

Oh, you…

How do you feel about coming up
with a new menu item?

-A new menu item? Me?
-Why? You can't?

I'll think about it over lunch.

What are you having?

I'm not sure.

Why are you so curious
about what someone else is eating?

No, it's just that the tteokbokki
we had yesterday was good.

Oh, right.
You said you liked tteokbokki, right?

The tteokbokki place in front
of the school was really good.

Tteokbokki for lunch?

Why? Is that not allowed?

You ate something spicy
and strong during business hours?

He eats super spicy jjamppong often, too.

Wow, I don't even eat kimchi
during business hours.

That's surprising to hear.

I'm going to go and eat lunch.

Where did he learn all that?

No, no. I eat kimchi.

I don't have a choice. Sorry.

But we're talking
about the comeback performance

of our love here.

It's making me question my life, too.

This is just…

Wow, do you hear it?

What?

The crack in our friendship.

-Oh, come on.
-We can't just let this slide.

-Then?
-Tteokbokki?

Okay, fine!

Oh, that's surprising. She fell for it!

Yes!

We need to warm up.

Those two… Wait for me!

Thank you.

I thought you can't properly taste
the bread if you eat something too strong.

I thought you were so sick of flour

that you don't even want
to look at rice flour cakes.

I wasn't the one who broke the seal.

Even her shameless attitude is perfect.

Ma'am, can we get
two more servings of tteokbokki?

Ma'am, can I get a tteok-sun-fried set?

Extra liver with the sundae,
mixed with the seasoning.

Go-bi Oppa?

Oh, Ms. Ga-won.

-Ms. Ga-won?
-Oppa?

Oppa who?

I guess you came to eat some tteokbokki.

No. Kimchi during working hours
would be ridiculous.

I came to eat fried food. Fried food.

I thought you wanted
a tteok-sun-fried set?

I must have misspoken.

Take the tteok and sun out
of the tteok-sun-fried set.

Forget the seasoning,
I'll dip it in soy sauce.

You should've just asked
for the fried set. Some people…

Here, take this.

The two servings
of tteokbokki you ordered.

I see you're eating
tteokbokki, Ms. Ga-won.

No, I'm just here
because my friend wanted to eat it.

Ms. Ga-won, you have some
tteokbokki sauce on your mouth.

No, not that side. This side.

A bit further up.

I'll be leaving.

-Have a good meeting. Let's talk soon.
-Okay.

Oh, here comes Ga-won.

Joo-hee.

Can you talk to her for me, Joo-hee?

Me? Why?

It might seem like I'm just dumping this
on Go-bi after I already told her no.

I've been dying to say something.
Works for me.

But you're going to talk to Go-bi, right?

I should.

Good. It's for them to decide, anyway.
Goodbye.

-Hey, Ga-won!
-Hello, Joo-hee.

It seems that your wish
is finally going to be fulfilled.

What do you mean?

You should hear it directly
from the person in charge.

Anyhow, good luck with Go-bi.

I… will be cheering you two on!

Take care.

With Ga-won?

Or… do you have an idea
that you could do on your own?

No, it's not that.
What can I do with a baby?

Baby?

What about you?

I'll give it my all.

Let me clean up, you can go.

Pardon?

Ga-won should be off by now.

Oh, I see. Then, I'll get ready to leave.

Baby?

Are you going to practice today, too?

Yes, of course.

Okay. I'm going to head out first.
Don't forget to lock up.

Okay. Get home safely.

Hello.

Go-bi, what brings you by at this hour?

I have to talk to Ga-won about something.

Oh?

-Go ahead then.
-It's nothing urgent. I can wait outside.

Ga-won… is he a bit of a weirdo?

Pardon?

Let's go home together. I'll wait for you.

I don't think he is…

Don't worry, you can go home.
I need to get some work done, anyway.

You can go ahead and bake.

Oh, you're not going
to change before you leave?

No.

Yes.

Huh?

I'm not getting changed
and I'm not going home yet.

-Oh, then we can talk here?
-No.

I'm in high school.

Right. High school senior.

Even if I'm a senior, I'm still a minor.

Oh, sorry. I was working today too,
so it's a bit late…

You're always so polite
and have good manners.

But I think that's the extent
of my feelings.

Pardon?

I'm a bit uncomfortable.

I'm not interested in dating.

Goodbye.

What was that?

Seriously? This just makes me
look like a weirdo.

I'm really sorry, Ga-won.
I never imagined this happening.

Maybe I left it too open
to interpretation?

Joo-hee, are you smiling right now?

No, I wasn't smiling.

Sir, how can you smile
at a time like this?

I'm not smiling.

Seriously, what the heck?

I'm so embarrassed.
I can't come back here.

It's Go-bi.

I'm leaving.

-You're coming back, right?
-I don't know!

I'll explain it to Go-bi properly
this time.

Don't say a word. Not a thing.

Ms. Ga-won.

-He caught her. She's caught.
-I see that.

Oh, hello, Go-bi Oppa.

-I thought about what happened yesterday…
-No, don't think.

I'm sorry.

Do you want to come by later when I'm off?

Pardon?

We should do it, the collaboration.

Okay.

Oh, you're early.

-Aren't you off now?
-I'm just getting started.

Hey, Go-bi.

Hello. I'm here to finish my conversation
with Ms. Ga-won from yesterday.

Not about dating. About the new menu item.

Oh, is that so?

Working so hard during off-hours.
I'm going to head out.

-Goodbye.
-I'll see you later.

Do you want to come back here?

Can I?

Of course.

I thought you baked bread?

I'm going to make some confit.

Confit?

It means preservation,
a type of slow-cooking in liquid.

You repeat the same process over and over.

It's called zest blanching.
It disinfects it

while removing bitterness
and other undesired flavors.

Is that the end?

I didn't even cook it
in the sugar water yet.

Confit is complete.

You just finished preparing
one ingredient?

That's right.

-What are you going to make with this?
-Orange madeleines.

So you're going to use this confit
and no syrup?

Right.

This is it for today.

Weren't you just getting started?

I just feel a bit wary
with someone waiting in front of me.

Oh, all because of me.

Mr. Seok knows that I stay late
to practice on the days I work.

It seems like he did this because he knew.

Pardon?

He wanted me to watch and learn.

Well, I didn't really
teach you anything special.

My boss is surprisingly sly at times.

Let's go.

Go? Where?

You said you're done.
Aren't you going home now?

When the cooking is done,
the cleaning begins. You know?

Oh, right.

I'll help you.

Let's do it quickly and talk
about the menu on the way home.

Hold on.

You know that not all types
of cleaning are the same, right?

-Right.
-Just stay put. I'll finish it up quickly.

I wanted to ask you something.

Did you ever go through hard times?

What? It's hard every moment.

No, I don't mean hard times
because it's busy and difficult.

I mean when there are no customers
and there's nothing to do.

You're just a baby. A baby.

Pardon?

Not too long after I started working
part-time at the bakery,

I thought the hardest part
was when it was busy

or when I had to deal
with a rude customer.

But it turns out the hardest part
is having to kill time

because there aren't any customers.

So I wasn't the only one
that felt like that.

-You know what waiters are, right?
-Of course. People that serve you.

Wrong, they're people that wait.

-Wordplay?
-It wasn't a joke.

Bakery owners, coffee shop employees,
women, men…

Anybody that waits
on customers is a waiter.

Why do I suddenly feel… smaller?

It's something that Mr. Seok told me
when it was getting

a bit tedious and I was
thinking about quitting.

Mr. Park…

Even the conclusion is heartwarming.

No way.

If you can't even endure the waiting,
it's better to quit sooner than later.

Is he saying you should quit or not?

That's Mr. Seok for you.

How did you manage to endure it?

I asked Mr. Seok the same thing too.
It's surprisingly simple.

He told me to ask myself
if I loved this enough to endure

the tedious and gloomy days
when there aren't any customers.

-Orange Cappuccino?
-Yes.

It's not bad.

I'll try to roast something
that would go with this.

Okay.

Please, let me know
if you find any shortcomings.

First, the milk foam is too low.

Besides the fact that it has milk foam,
what makes it a cappuccino?

Do you think
it's because of the orange syrup?

I think it's an issue with the balance.

A variation drink is a fail
if you miss the right amount

of espresso, milk foam, or syrup.

The taste of milk is too overwhelming.

I did set it to 55 degrees
so that you can properly taste

the sweetness of the milk.

Raising it to anywhere
from 65 to 75 degrees is harmless.

I don't think there's an issue
with the temperature.

Fifty-five degrees is also
Edae Coffee's signature.

Should I try using a dark roast?

Intensifying the espresso taste
could have an adverse effect.

Then, what should I do?

I made the diagnosis,
you need to find the solution.

Should we try changing the cup?

The cup?

From 300ml to 180ml.

Oh, narrowing the opening
should make the foam thicker.

-It would balance out as well.
-Right.

Anyhow, it's a bit hazy as a whole…
like you recently.

Me? Was I?

It needs more impact.

Get people visually intrigued
and follow through with the taste.

Okay.

It improved a lot with the new cup,
but the espresso is a bit…

Maybe it needs ristretto

with its shorter extraction time
and smaller amount?

Okay, let's make it
with a double shot of ristretto.

Mix it in a 180ml cup
with the syrup already inside.

Pour in steamed milk.

I added an orange slice on top
of the foam for more impact…

You can even see the gold ring.
You made it properly.

This is a match made in heaven.

If you're done taking pictures,
shall we have a taste?

But orange madeleines don't look
much different from regular ones.

Go-bi said he was making
an orange cappuccino,

so I didn't add any slices on top.

From the use of the ingredients
to recipe modifications,

this was a proper collaboration.

Here's your coffee.

-Sit. Let's taste it together.
-Okay.

You know you need to drink cappuccinos
as if you're biting into an apple

because of the foam, right?

Of course.

Thank you.

I was worried that it'd be sweet
because of the syrup, but it's not.

I agree. There's a perfect balance
between the coffee,

the milk, and syrup.

What do you think, Mr. Park?

I concur.

Now, let's taste the madeleines.

I can see why you skipped
adding the orange slices.

They go well together.

This didn't just come out of the oven.

Why? You don't think it's tasty?

No, the chewy texture
and aroma of the orange peels…

This is the real deal.

Of course, you know.

If you don't eat them
straight out of the oven

and let them sit for a bit,
the confit sticks to the cake more.

Just like Edae Coffee and Kang Go-bi?

Pardon?

Are you still straying?

No.

He didn't say anything,
but Mr. Park was really worried.

Who was worried?

Your mouth. Mouth. Mouth…

See! It's like the silent masters
who just swallow their words down,

have all gathered in this town.
How can you all live so frustratingly?

Thank you all for your concern.

I should be thanking you.

Thanks to this, I have a new goal.

What is it?

To become a proper waiter.

-Is he moving on to another job?
-I'm not sure.

You want to become a waiter
and not a proper barista?

Let's eat some more first.

Okay.

Welcome!

Welcome.

Choi Hurt?

I think I've heard of the name.

You don't know?
He's a super famous blogger and reviewer.

He's cynical and harsh,
but he's never wrong.

Sir, even so, if you put it like that…

Is he insane?

He's always been an interesting character.

How was the review for Edae Coffee?

Are you really curious?

It's been a while, Choi Hurt.

He has ended cafés
with one sentence, one remark.
