Original subtitles

(10 year anniversary special edition, '3 Meals A Day : Light')

(Late evening in July. A week before filming)

(Meeting with the staff and a meal together)

(Yoo Haejin: Actor)

Did you cook this yourself

- or order in? - Obviously we ordered in.

He ordered these himself.

(The cast arrive one by one)

(Cha Seungwon: Actor)

If you have beer, I'd like a cold one.

You read my mind?

(They start on a friendly note)

The reason we are filming today

is not just so that we can have a meal together and talk

but also because our viewers don't know about this show.

I don't know much either.

I briefed you before.

What?

I told you the title.

That was all you told me.

The title is '3 Meals A Day : Light'.

What does 'light' mean?

Isn't it that?

What is it? You explain.

Even coke comes in a light version.

Yes.

That was a good start.

It has a refreshing feel to it.

'3 Meals A Day : Light'.

I loved the title the moment I heard it.

We wanted this season to be

light and refreshing.

In this season, it will be just the two of you.

Just us.

If it's just us,

it will be very light.

I'm so worried about this.

Because there is nothing between both of you?

Yes.

What's wrong with just us going together?

We will be arguing when we don't see eye to eye.

(They predict that there will be discord)

It's wrong for him to have these thoughts early on.

Let's not just spend time thinking

about cooking all day long.

We should have time to relax as well.

Yes. It will be light.

Be light. As an example,

if you go travel somewhere...

We will just go to a gimbap restaurant and get some gimbap.

- I don't want that. - No?

(Laughing)

The reason he hates it...

Really?

I thought that was what 'light' means.

There is something else behind the word 'light'.

It is '3 Meals A Day'.

(Producer Na is here with his notes)

What kind of briefing are you planning to do?

It's not a big deal

but I know that we will be talking about this.

You are going to give us the answer?

I have been going back and forth about this.

I thought, should we just go buy gimbap once?

But what is '3 Meals A Day' about?

First. try to start a fire and cook as much as we can.

Fire.

You said this is light but nothing changed.

If possible.

We can keep it open.

Second.

If possible, cook every meal.

If possible.

I don't know what is light about this season.

(And thirdly)

(Travel to farming, fishing and mountain villages)

(Enjoy the various faces of summer in Korea)

Those days, we used to have time to relax

but not this time.

We don't have much time.

(Be more relaxed)

(To have more relaxing days)

This is how '3 Meals A Day : Light' should be.

(We are back with a lighter version of this show)

My gosh.

It's so good that I can't believe this is happening.

This is very...

Those days, since we stayed only at one house...

(They made a contract with the house owner)

(and set the house to be suitable for filming)

Are we going to live with the owner?

('3 Meals A Day' version of staying in a rented room)

(Thankfully, the owners will not be home)

We didn't touch anything.

We will only change the bedding.

The rest will be the same.

There are knives, pots and bowls too.

We will use their items?

(They will use utensils found in the kitchen)

I think we should bring

our own rice and such.

But when I think about it,

Seungwon's cooking knowledge is vast and extensive.

So, we staff don't know what you would need.

Therefore, you can bring your own ingredients.

That was what crossed my mind.

I have to bring ingredients myself?

I see. You have gone mad.

(Principle for this show: Bring what you need yourself)

But we are not meant to live a luxurious life on this show.

(He can tell that something bad is happening)

So after long meetings among ourselves,

in this season of '3 Meals A Day',

we made rules about the things that you can bring.

Why do you look so unhappy?

(Staff have come up with rules on the items they can bring)

We have set some rules.

(Rice provided, only raw materials are allowed, meat, fish,)

(shellfish, egg, drinks, seasoning, tools,)

(and items for hobbies and leisure are allowed)

(You can bring 33kg per person)

(Rules on other items can be defined by common sense)

This is for 4 days and 3 nights?

Yes.

4 days and 3 nights.

'The amount of meat such as beef, pork and chicken

is 150g per person.'

The amount of meat that will make us feel satisfied

is around 180g to 200g per person.

This is not enough for one serving.

Why did you choose 150g?

They are just toying with us.

That is what they're doing. Look at the eggs.

- Eggs... - Only 3.

3 eggs per person for 4 days and 3 nights?

For 4 days and 3 nights?

These days, my morning routine

is to wake up, have some salad

and eat 2 boiled eggs.

That is for one day.

Forget about it this time.

- I eat 2 eggs in a day. - Just forget about it.

I will give you mine.

(6 eggs means he can maintain his routine for 3 days)

If you eat 2 eggs in a day...

Why? You're not going to eat eggs?

I don't usually eat eggs.

- Really? - Yes.

Why?

Do I need a reason for that?

(He is not angry)

You were chewing while looking at me.

That seemed cruel.

(Looks like he will be in trouble if he doesn't eat eggs)

Usually, everybody eats eggs and enjoys it.

I eat them but I'm giving mine to you so you can eat them.

(He hid his kindness with his abrupt manner)

I can change my diet too.

No, just eat the eggs.

Don't break your routine.

Look at the tools.

'You can bring tools of any size and shape'.

These things will only cause us more trouble.

That's why it is allowed.

The things that are favorable for us...

Everything that is good for us is limited.

Things that are good for them are not limited.

We can bring 33kg per person?

If it's 33kg...

We actually followed the rules from airlines.

If we can bring as much as 33kg per person,

that is the same as the rules used by airlines.

So make sure you give us in-flight meals.

Make sure you prepare meals for us to eat in the bus.

We will.

(A journey that includes in-flight meals)

We'll gather in front of the minibus on our shooting day.

There will be inspection by the customs.

Do we need to bring our passports?

Is there immigration too?

Will we gain a large audience with this amount of restrictions?

Before this,

when Yoo caught a sea bream,

we gained 15 percent viewership.

I doubt we will get many viewers unless Haejin becomes a fish.

I think...

I will follow the rules about the things we can bring.

(They are done going over the rules of the items to bring)

This is what I want to say.

We have to make

our own dishes such as kimchi, don't we?

We can't bring them with us.

Why not? We can.

Hey!

(All ready-made food like kimchi is not allowed)

But you have to be lenient for us to bring

readymade items too.

Let's do this then.

We will bring rice and kimchi.

Nothing else.

I have done everything I can for you.

(The passengers and organizer have made a deal for kimchi)

That is all.

- That's enough. - That is all I can do.

That's it.

Good job.

Good job.

You did great.

(Seasoned members of '3 Meals A Day' with 10 years' experience)

Does the weight include our clothes and shoes

for 4 days and 3 nights?

(33kg per person inclusive of everything)

You have to pack well.

But...

I doubt I have time for this.

(One week's notice is too short for a planner)

Let's discuss about the weight for meat later.

Guests will bring things, too.

But still.

Let's agree on 180g, then.

Just go for 200g.

- 200g. - No.

Let's shake hands.

(Shaking hands as if he was forced to)

(The meeting where the passengers won more has ended)

(Cha Seungwon)

(Yoo Haejin)

(10th year anniversary special edition)

(3 Meals A Day : Light)

(Egg**coming's office on the day of shooting)

(Seungwon arrives with both hands full)

You're not going to spend using your shooting budget?

Why did you tell me to prepare so much?

You should've used the money to buy that for what I brought.

(He shows his anger as soon as he sees Producer Na)

You have a building that is worth billions.

(He is creating false rumors due to his anger)

I had to buy everything.

(It's obvious that his things have exceeded the limit)

I think that is around 270kg.

- 330kg. - Is it that heavy?

Why do we even have those rules then?

Hey.

Did you not read the last rule?

Look at this.

'Other items have to be things that make sense for use'.

These items fall in that category.

(Common sense)

That is absurd.

If you open this...

Once you open the bags,

you can tell that I am a very rational person.

(While those inside are busy talking about rationality)

(Haejin has arrived)

You have to check-in.

Check-in?

But I have gone through immigration.

(Pun)

It's been ages.

(Happy to meet the audio director too)

We are at the airport.

You're not going to button up?

No. I want to look wild.

You are cool.

These are heavy.

(Wild Haejin arrives with both hands full too)

It has to be 33kg.

(He enters the office while struggling)

Why are you nagging?

Why are you nagging since morning?

Listen up.

Look at his things.

Is he migrating?

But

shouldn't you weigh only our personal items?

Cooking items and such...

(They are questioning the items regulations)

That is the reason we have a rulebook.

Do you know how heavy a hammer is?

They are just clueless

about carpentry, tools, and food.

I actually stepped out of home happily today.

We don't get to hang out together often.

I didn't feel great as soon as I entered.

He was nagging the moment I entered.

I understand this much.

In reality, both of us

are meant to work together

and be part of a program that helps our viewers to unwind.

Yes, that's right.

We need all these

in order to help them relax.

But you do have a lot.

What?

(Checking the weight of the luggage)

This alone is 29kg.

(Checking the next suitcase)

(We can tell in a glance it is packed with ingredients)

2 bottles of alcohol per person.

- Two bottles here. - Let me see.

- This... - Ice shaving machine?

(Ice shaving machine)

You're not going to have bingsu? It's summer.

Bingsu sounds good.

We have to eat bingsu.

That's a good one. I like it.

What is that?

This is an umbrella that you put on your head.

Really?

If it rains...

This makes sense.

(An item that makes sense)

You want to get wet in the rain?

(There is a day when it is predicted to rain)

- What is that? - Look at this.

You need to look at it?

Are these rubber bands?

This is corn noodles.

(Corn noodles)

(Corn noodles look very similar to rubber bands)

These noodles are perfect for Chinese-style cold noodles.

Radish.

I need 3 radishes.

Welsh onion, potato...

These all makes sense.

There is no meat?

We will buy meat on the way.

Yes. Or otherwise it will go bad.

We can't buy meat here as it will spoil.

(The next piece of luggage looks heavy for two men too)

What are these?

What do you have?

(A large cooler that is packed)

These are all seasonings.

Okay. You can bring all these.

(The cooler is 36kg)

Winter vegetables.

Young radish.

Young radish.

Okay?

All the items are good.

The issue is the weight.

The total weight right now is 74.26kg.

(His luggage alone exceeded the amount for 2 people)

The weight limit is 33kg per person.

Bring Hyejin's item.

Me?

Why is yours heavy too?

(The duffle bag looks heavy)

(16.56kg)

This is cutlery.

There might be items that don't pass.

They all make sense.

(The items brought by Haejin)

(1 ranked prohibited item: Knife)

How is this common sense?

Would you be allowed to pass if you bring this to the airport?

Double knives.

He wanted to give me that.

These are twin knives.

(These are famous twin kitchen knives)

This is a saw.

(Rank 0 item that is not allowed: Electric saw)

It's too hard to saw things.

Listen...

You have this at home?

Yes, I do.

I don't get it why he has that at home.

This is a really old item too.

This is a drill.

If you use a screwdriver...

Recently, I tried using a screwdriver

and it hurt my palms.

This is...

(What is the next item that he shows us shyly?)

If we compare this to food,

this is like MSG.

- What is that? - Ignition agent.

(This makes starting a fire way easier)

(If we can use this...)

Good.

We need this.

This is necessary.

'Easy starter'.

'Fire starter'.

(They can only use that in case of emergencies)

I will make a major decision right now.

I won't weigh your clothes.

Those are your items. So we can exclude that.

But then, Seungwon's items are 74.26kg.

Haejin's is 16.65kg, right?

If we add both up,

it is 90.91kg.

Our luggage weight is 33kg, isn't it?

24.91.

Hey. Come on.

(Do you take cards?)

Hey.

(Do you barter as well?)

Let's get going.

Move right now.

(Compromise with the passengers who are well-to-do)

You have to pay extra charges.

I will explain the method of payment

when we get there.

(They will head to their house with extra charges in tow)

(Location of departure: Seoul Destination: Unknown)

Hello. My goodness.

(Jimmy jib cameraman. Heli camera cameraman)

I think you lost some weight.

(Greeting the staff after not meeting for a long time)

They will be filming us.

(This show has the minimum number of staff too)

Let's shout our chant for good luck.

(They have no plans to do that)

Something like, 'Let's do this'.

(They don't even want to respond)

Fasten your seatbelt, please.

(It feels like they are traveling in a flight together)

Let's go.

Let's get going.

(They don't know their destination)

(but they are on their way to cook to avoid the sun)

If only I had breakfast.

You want the in-flight meal served now?

We do have an in-flight meal.

Beef or tuna?

Tuna.

(Tuna gimbap)

(In-flight meal: Beef gimbap and tuna gimbap)

Water?

Thank you.

- Excuse me. - Thank you.

- Ding, dong. - Yes.

I'd like to have some ramyeon.

Sorry but this is a budget airline.

You are in economy class.

I'm sorry.

So Lim Youngwoong is joining us today?

Who? What are you talking about?

It would be weirder for you to not know.

Who is Lim Youngwoong?

There were news reports about it for the whole week.

Do you think we were hidden in some sort of cave?

If Youngwoong joins us on the first episode,

later on,

we need someone like President Biden as our guest.

(We don't know who this is)

(Someone very famous will appear soon)

(We didn't invite President Biden)

Here comes 'Seoul Restaurant'.

What are you doing here?

(We have famous and amazing guests)

(They will be joining us soon)

Oh?

You can only have 2 bottles of alcohol per person.

Hyejin, you didn't bring any, did you?

I only brought one.

- You brought one? - Yes.

- When it rains... - There is a lot to do.

- We can have makgeolli. - Sounds good.

Hey.

Since I didn't buy one bottle...

But they don't sell big bottles of makgeolli.

Shall we buy one gallon?

Let's just do that.

- That is one bottle too. - Yes.

They didn't set any guidelines about the amount.

Why? Where are we?

Where?

Wonju Airport? Wonju?

Wonju.

(The bus is heading to Gangwon-do)

This area has that.

Potatoes.

That's true.

Yes.

Please answer.

(He is silent when he gets caught)

We were asking.

We are exiting. We are heading to Bongpyeong.

There is a place called Jangpyeong beside Bongpyeong.

Jangpyeong.

(Pyeongchang)

(Pyeongchang-gun has good mountains and water)

(We dropped by to let them buy their groceries at Jangpyeong-ri)

Over there.

Let's go to the butcher over there.

I think the meat there looks good.

- A good butcher? - Yes.

(They buy meat at the butcher)

(They visit the mart)

I have a question.

Is there a brewery for makgeolli over here?

(They got information on a local makgeolli brewery)

What is that?

You can't lie like this.

This is 6 liters.

(They found a way to fill the quota of one bottle)

We can fill a lot in one kettle.

It's better to shake it.

Is that enough?

(The magic to turn 7 bottles into 1 bottle of makgeolli)

We bought many things.

All preparations are done.

All we need are snacks.

(They bought makgeolli, will make snacks and...)

Unlike what I expected, the sun is still up.

(It is supposed to rain but it is not happening)

I think this is not a good first step.

We have arrived.

We have?

We will walk to the house.

(They traveled for 2 hours to arrive at this place)

(At Dumulmeori where the stream meets with Pyeongchang River)

(Vast field of potatoes)

- Is it that house? - Yes.

Look at the pine tree behind that house.

It's pretty.

How did we...

(The red-roofed house that has a pine tree as its background)

(This is the house they will stay at for a few days)

Those are potato flowers?

(In Pyeongchang, potato flowers bloom in July)

(Taking pictures)

So this is how a potato field looks.

Someone is coming out.

There is a puppy.

(The owner is ready to welcome the guests)

Look at it wagging its tail.

Its tail is not a propeller.

It knows who we are.

It is wagging its tail.

Hey.

- Come here. - What is your name?

(Bokgu, female, 10 years old, home protector)

What are you doing?

Why are you so friendly?

- Why are you so happy? - Come here.

Nice to meet you.

Good. Great.

(It is clear that this puppy is an extrovert)

- Thanks for welcoming us. - Take us on a tour.

Where are you going?

(Please come with me)

(The owner is very kind)

A grandmother used to live right here.

Her descendants

built a new big house beside hers.

When there are guests visiting the house...

(This place is only used as a space for visitors)

Bokgu.

That must be its name.

Merci beaucoup.

You are very...

Even your fur is shining.

You are so pretty.

(Lying down)

(They just met)

- My goodness. - If it lies down in 10 seconds...

(It is meant to protect the house and the grandmother)

I don't think it will be able to protect the house.

It can't do it.

I think it will show the robber around the house.

(Looks like Bokgu has to change its job)

That's enough.

Get up now.

Hold on.

(Let's go on a tour together)

Every day...

I haven't seen this in a long time.

(It seems like time stopped at the kitchen)

Shall we look at the room? This is how it looks here.

- Look at this. - Just look at it.

(This room smells like old trees and soil)

(There is a small room inside)

(and another small room too)

It feels like I am back at my grandparents' place.

This is great.

(There are 2 small rooms)

(After walking through the kitchen and the hinged door)

(There is a small porch with a beautiful view)

The view is beautiful but the ceiling is low.

(It is a bit uncomfortable for tall people)

This is where they hang out when guests come.

(A banquet hall with a nice view of green potato fields)

The area around this place is all fields.

(They grow during summer in Pyeongchang)

(There are many plants here)

(This is their first house on '3 Meals A Day : Light')

(Current time is 1:30PM)

Let's get changed.

- This is... - My goodness.

(Haejin appears with a style perfect for this place)

(And after that)

(Seungwon is in a tropical mood)

Are we in Hawaii?

(He saw Seungwon)

Finally...

(He found Haejin)

(He looks downwards as he is happy to see that)

You are in blue.

This is how we meet.

(They meet up again in a familiar setting)

- I like how we look. - This is how things are for us.

(They are back in their own familiar styles)

(to live in an unfamiliar setting in Pyeongchang)

(Chef Cha starts by organizing the kitchen)

(He arranges the different noodles beside the rice)

(He organizes various seasonings inside the empty cabinet)

Anchovies.

Fermented soy sauce, thick soy sauce,

sesame oil, perilla oil...

Okay. Fish sauce.

(He places heavy bottles of seasoning in the lowest section)

(The ones that are used often are at the top)

(Endless ingredients are coming out of the box)

(This time, it is time for fresh produce)

(Once the ingredients to make meals are ready)

(Special dishes made by confident Chef Cha)

(They will all be added into the pot)

There's nothing you can't do.

(While the cooking team prepares the kitchen)

(The facility team enters the workshop)

Okay.

(He naturally takes the furnace)

(Checking the roof. Checking the field)

(Choosing the best spot based on the location)

(He found the spot for the furnace)

(Bricks to cover the fire)

(He is going to make the floor for the furnace)

(Getting more bricks)

(He leaves again)

(And comes back again)

(After exercising by walking back and forth several times)

(The furnace is ready)

You have decided?

What are we having for our first meal?

I haven't decided yet.

You made up your mind?

Made up my mind about what?

How you will start the fire.

(Getting his revenge)

We need fire no matter what you plan to cook.

Yes, we do.

This will be our lunch and dinner.

That is why we should not settle for noodles.

- Let's have rice. - We need to eat rice.

I'm thinking of having gochujang jjigae for dinner.

That sounds good.

(Young radish, winter vegetables)

(He starts by making kimchi before making gochujang jjigae)

(He washes the red basin first)

(Winter vegetables)

(And lots of young radishes)

(He washes them cleanly)

(The next task)

(We can't see you)

(Nobody knows what he is doing)

(The cameras are looking for the best angle)

Seungwon.

Sit down while you're doing it.

Can you also look at the camera while working?

The cameras are over there.

You've been in this field for 30 years but why...

I think I'm bad at this.

(We finally get a clear view)

Let me help with something.

Please get me a knife.

Help me with this.

Okay.

How do I do this?

(Clean the soil and remove the outer layer of the roots)

Let me show you the part that you have to scrape well.

This is the part you're talking about, right?

(Focus on the root area that is close to the greens)

Remove the part at the end.

(Cut off the tip of the root with a knife)

We can cut off this part.

Are you going to make young radish kimchi?

Yes.

- We can't eat it right away. - No, we can't.

- Wait for it to get fermented. - Yes, that's right.

That is why we add flour paste to it.

Then it will ferment faster.

(The chef and his assistant are focused on the task)

Looking at this is calming, isn't it?

Yes, this is relaxing.

That is true.

Aren't you hungry?

I'm fine.

You're hungry?

I only had half a gimbap. So I'm hungry.

(Current time is 2:30PM)

There's a lot we have to do for this.

(They just started to make kimchi instead of cooking)

(They have this much left)

Will we be able to eat by today?

Can't we get food delivered?

Is there a Chinese restaurant here?

That's a good one for our first meal.

(Even after saying that)

(he is still busy with preparing the first meal)

This is a lot. I think this is enough.

This should be sufficient.

This is done.

(They are done preparing young radish and winter vegetables)

We have to clean the radish too?

- Yes, that's right. - Okay.

I shouldn't have asked that.

Let's wash the radish.

(That is possible)

(While the assistant washes the radish)

(The chef cuts off the roots and leaves)

Our position is a bit weird.

(The butt view)

- It looks weird? - Yes.

Sorry.

(They found peace again after getting a better view)

(Removing the peel of the radish)

What else? Garlic?

It'll be good if we have peeled garlic.

(The assistant is good at doing his job)

I need this much garlic.

(Amount of garlic order: A lot)

(He cuts the young radish into 4 parts so it's easy to eat)

(Remove the bottom part of the winter vegetables)

(Then, cut this into four parts too)

(Radish that will be made into kkakdugi)

(Cut it into bite-sized cubes)

Done, now...

(Time to salt the radish to make kkakdugi)

(Sugar for summer radish that does not taste sweet)

(Use coarse salt)

(Mix everything well so that they are salted evenly)

(Wait until the radish has absorb both salt and sugar)

(Salt young radish and winter vegetables with salt too)

(He visits the vegetable patch to get other ingredients)

I can use this.

(He takes two bunches of young green onion)

(Wash them cleanly with water)

(Slice onion thinly)

(Remove just the top of the chilies)

(The ingredients to make kimchi are ready)

(And the kitchen assistant)

(He is done peeling a lot of garlic)

(Rinse them clean with water)

Hmm...

I love this feeling.

It's like...

I love touching this.

My goodness.

You're going to sleep here?

Bokgu, you should do something too.

(Me?)

If you have time to sleep, you should come and help us.

I used to hear that often.

What do you want to be?

What do you want to do?

(Spitting out all kinds of nice things he heard as a child)

(It's too noisy for me to sleep here)

(Escaping the nags)

We can start a fire quickly in this weather, can't we?

A small one.

Then we can start making the flour paste right away.

That much.

I scooped the right amount.

(Adding the amount of minced garlic as requested)

(He gets ready to start a fire)

(Items needed: Newspaper)

(Match)

(Twigs)

(He is back to his original job)

This is what it means to co-exist.

I can't believe that I am glad to see a brazier.

It makes me scared too.

(Giggling)

(This is the reason he is scared to start a fire)

(From the days when newspapers fly away)

(The days at Jukggul Island where ashes fly everywhere)

(There are times when he uses a newspaper)

(There are times when he uses a plank)

Look at this.

Look at the water dripping.

(Because of the times when he had to battle with fire)

(He makes a tower of firewood and prays it catches fire easily)

(He places the dried twigs deep inside the tower)

(He uses a match to move the embers)

(The fire that is always tough on Haejin)

(The fire has started)

(The fire grows bigger even without being fanned)

(It has been 10 years since they've had rice made in furnace)

(It's so easy for him to start a fire without an easy starter)

(Chef Cha prepares flour paste in the meantime)

(Five spoons of flour)

(Pour enough water to submerge the flour)

(Stir it until the flour has mixed with the water)

This is meshed.

Why?

This mesh has been set up.

(Laughing)

(You shocked me)

(This is the fun of living)

(The fire and net are ready)

(The flour paste is ready too)

(The first item to be cooked on the furnace is ready)

(Continue to stir it until it becomes thick)

Oh.

(Fire: Strong)

This is done.

- Stop? - Remove it.

- Hold on. - Remove it.

- Okay. - Remove it.

- Move. - It's done.

(It carefully escaped the furnace)

Hold on.

(To prevent it from spilling and sticking to the pot,)

(remove from the fire and stir it until it gets foamy)

The fire is very strong.

(It's hot)

You said it's going to rain.

(It's not going to rain)

Good. It's done.

The flour paste is done.

(He pours the flour paste into a bowl)

(Let it cool down in the fridge)

(The fire is still very strong)

(He will cook the rice as it is a waste to leave the fire)

One.

Five.

(This rice that looks special)

We should have brown rice.

We can have 50% polished rice.

That sounds good.

(During the meeting, they decided to not use white rice)

50% polished rice is good for our health.

(Brown rice: Only husk is removed White rice: Rice bran is removed)

(50% polished rice: 50 percent of rice bran and sprout are left)

(It is very nutritious and can be digested easily)

I have to do it like this.

Wash it.

Done. Okay. It's done.

(Measure the right amount of water)

(First 50% polished rice is placed on the furnace)

I hope the rice will be cooked to perfection.

(Excited yet worried)

(Haejin is worried about the first pot of rice)

(Move the firewood)

(Fan it)

(Sniff it)

(Sniffing)

(One more time)

(He is very worried as this is his first time making it)

I hope it turns out well.

(He takes a breather and leaves the rice to the furnace)

Shall I take a look at the sky?

(Seungwon who has been working takes time to rest too)

I am holding a rag.

(He was so excited to rest that he is still holding a rug)

I love this.

(This is a relaxing sight)

(A view with greens and blue)

This is a great thing to see.

It is.

(Over the green fabric)

(are potato flowers hanging on a white thread)

(Just looking at this view is a form of healing)

What is the time now?

(The cubed radish has been salted well)

(Rinse with water and it is ready to be made into kimchi)

(Shake it)

(Strain both young radish and winter vegetables too)

(He immediately starts to make the seasoning paste for kimchi)

(Cut chilies into big pieces and put them in a blender)

(Two tablespoons of minced ginger)

(Add lots of minced garlic)

(500ml of water)

(All he has to do now is to blend everything)

(The kimchi seasoning paste is done)

(Haejin is still sniffing the rice)

This looks quite good.

(It passed the smell test)

(Spoon is on standby)

(This time, he will taste it)

(Everybody is waiting for the lid to be removed)

Wait. This is hot.

(Bad shot)

(Take 2)

(Wow)

I think this is burnt.

This smells burnt.

Hold on.

(The slight ray of hope)

(is gone)

What should I do?

The rice isn't cooked, is it?

- No. - I told you.

I told you that you needed to add more water.

But you told me to stop.

(The result of miscommunication)

Shall I add more water?

Let's try to save this.

Isn't it burnt?

It is.

(He begins the emergency procedure)

Let's have risotto for dinner.

(This looks like risotto now)

Let me see how cooked is it.

It is a mess now. Don't remove the lid often.

I think we need to make paella.

Paella...

I...

Hold on. That is for paella...

Korean paella.

I said 'Korean paella'.

I just gave it a new name.

(He is back at the furnace to save the rice)

(Haejin stays by its side)

(as if he is tending to a loved one)

(Let's see if it is breathing well)

(Is it feeling cold?)

Look at this.

My eyes are tearing up.

(So is the rice)

(And Haejin too)

I hope it will cook well.

(Will Haejin's wish that is filled with his sincerity come true?)

(Chef Cha makes kkakdugi as he leaves rice to Haejin)

(Add 3 spoons each of minced garlic and ginger to the radish)

(Add green onion, Welsh onion and onion to add texture)

Is this enough?

(The kimchi master never hesitates)

(One circle of anchovy extract)

(Add sand lance extract too)

(Lots of fine chili powder)

(Then, add chili flakes)

(He is making it without measuring it)

(At the tips of Chef Cha's fingers)

(the kkakdugi starts to change colors)

(Season with salt)

(Mix everything so they get seasoned well)

First off...

(He tastes the kkakdugi)

(Yum)

This is it. Honey.

Stop focusing on the paella.

Please add some of this.

(He adds more sweetness)

(It is almost done)

(He takes out the flour paste that is cooling down in the fridge)

(Coat the kkakdugi with it)

(Flour paste gets rid of bitter taste and makes it refreshing)

(It also helps to ferment the radish too)

(He moves them into a container)

(Yogurt?)

(Bacteria in yogurt helps to ferment kkakdugi)

(and adds more savory flavor to it)

(Mix everything well)

(The first kkakdugi kimchi is done)

You want to save that?

- Remove the lid. - We have to do something.

(Chef Cha who is done with kkakdugi is here to help)

Shall I take a look?

(How does the rice look now after all the care?)

Give it to me.

Let me taste it.

Hold on.

It seemed fine when I scooped some.

(Nervous)

Not bad.

It's okay. Try it.

(Oh)

Really?

(Finally, he is smiling)

Just wait a bit longer.

I can just let it cook using the remaining steam.

Yes. Just do that.

It's saved. Try it.

Try it.

I told you it's okay. Try it.

Just let it sit with the steam. Try it.

What do you think?

This is not bad.

I think it's savory and tasty.

(Precious rice that was brought back to life thanks to Haejin)

I can give you lots of scorched rice.

(Every single grain is precious)

(He changed it to low heat)

It will be done soon.

(Let it get steamed and it's done)

(Chef Cha starts making young radish kimchi)

(He pours the kimchi seasoning that he made earlier)

(Time to make it taste even richer)

(Pour anchovy extract to make it more savory)

(Pour one circle of anchovies and sand lance extract)

(Pour in sweet plum extract too)

(Add chili flakes)

(Scoop some fine chili powder)

(Sprinkle it in)

(Mix everything so it all gets seasoned)

(First tasting session)

(He is examining the taste)

(Done examining)

(Pour more anchovies and sand lance extract for flavor)

(Generous amount of salt)

(Mix it one more time)

(He is finding the flavor of kimchi with his taste-buds)

(Hmm)

(Pour on flour paste as the finale)

(Final check)

(Satisfied)

(Move it into a kimchi container)

(The big container is filled)

(It is spicy and refreshing)

(and crunchy too)

This is done.

(Chef Cha's winter vegetables kimchi is done)

(Kkakdugi and winter vegetables kimchi are done in a jiff)

(He places them under the sun so they ferment faster)

(He cleans his cooking spot right away)

(He wipes the items that he used as well)

(He is done cleaning up the kimchi)

What are we going to make now? Stew?

Yes, that's right.

So, the potato...

- The ones in the field? - Yes.

(Potato field)

We just need 7 potatoes.

(Get 7 potatoes)

(Gangwon-do potatoes that are in season now)

(They are waiting to be harvested)

Shall I start to harvest them?

Do it like this.

(Tear the plastic first)

(Pull it out energetically)

These are still tiny.

This won't do.

(He removes the whole plastic)

(He starts to dig using both hands)

I found a big one.

This is extra large.

(He can see the potatoes that are hiding in the soil)

This looks good.

(After searching the soil)

My gosh.

This is not easy.

(He just dug one plant)

(Harvesting potatoes is not as easy as expected)

Imagine harvesting these.

(He starts to harvest the second root)

For now...

(He took only the amount that they need for today)

(He gets ready to wash the potatoes he harvested)

But

I think we need to peel more garlic.

(He used up all the peeled garlic for kimchi)

(He gets tasks as soon as he arrives)

Last time...

I just needed to focus on firewood and the equipment.

I guess this is not light.

(First off, he washes the potatoes he harvested)

Garlic?

Yes. Garlic.

(2nd order for garlic)

(He naturally goes to his position for garlic)

You just have to peel this much.

(While Haejin prepares the garlic)

Can we eat the peel of the potatoes too?

I'm too lazy to peel these.

(Seungwon peels the potatoes)

(As they prepare the ingredients quietly)

(Sighing deeply)

Why are you groaning?

(He groaned without realizing)

Today...

Is this how we will spend our day?

Will the day end just like this?

We will just end up with red faces?

We haven't eaten anything at all.

I doubt we did anything else.

(They have been preparing ingredients for 3 hours)

(Current time is 5:30PM)

(They are still busy preparing the ingredients)

I'm done.

I will keep the extras.

(6 potatoes)

(2 onions)

(1 squash)

(He cuts them into bite-sized pieces)

(He places the prepared ingredients in one bowl)

You can start cooking once that is done, right?

Yes. I have to start cooking right away.

I have to start a fire now.

(Sighing)

(He has to start the fire again)

(He starts to prepare garlic again without having time to relax)

I have to harvest some Cheongyang chili peppers.

(Chef Cha has gone to the field to harvest Cheongyang chilies)

(The chilies smell spicy)

I have to taste this.

(Sighing)

(Another sigh)

Okay. This is enough.

There are Welsh onions too.

(Thinking hard)

Let's add just one.

(He harvests only what he needs at the field)

Done.

Here it is.

(The garlic is ready too)

(5 Cheongyang chilies)

(1 Welsh onion)

This is enough.

(From a kitchen assistant to the one who starts the fire)

Done.

Is the fire almost done?

Yes.

That is great.

Let's boil it now.

Is this too much?

(He is serious about getting the right amount of water)

(1 spoonful of gochujang)

Please get me a ladle since you're there.

- This one? - Yes.

(Changes to a ladle)

(Adding another big ladle of gochujang)

(Stir it so that the gochujang mixes well)

(Chili powder)

(Add sugar too)

You need to add sugar?

Tuna extract.

(Add tuna extract to make it more savory)

(Once the base is ready with Chef Cha's touch)

This feels like deja vu.

(The assistant gets some garlic again)

The day is getting darker

but we're filming the same thing.

It's because

I think we always need garlic.

(He takes care of the fire and prepares garlic too)

(Peeling garlic, preparing the base)

(Peeling garlic for the third time)

(He places the base on the furnace)

(Vegetables collected in the same bowl)

(Add them all together)

(Add all meat too)

I think he has become more generous now.

(This is for 2 servings)

(Adding the garlic that Haejin has pounded)

What is that?

Fish soy sauce.

(Cheongyang chili and Welsh onion make this spicy)

(Add everything at the same time)

It won't take long to boil

because of the fire.

(The fire is suitable for Chef Cha's cooking style)

(Mix everything so that the flavors harmonize)

It's time to add this.

(Add salt)

(And chili powder)

I have to let it boil for a long time.

(All he has to do is to season it right and let it cook)

Do you want some makgeolli?

(The happiest thing they have heard all day)

(The makgeolli they bought this morning)

This will be perfect with kimchi.

This is cold.

I have to let it simmer.

(The gochujang jjigae is seasoning the ingredients)

(Last flavor check)

Hold on.

(Chef Cha feels that something is missing)

I think this can be spicier.

I'll get another two Cheongyang chilies. Then it'll be spicier.

(He goes to the field to get more spiciness)

This is our labor stock.

(Haejin is preparing for the labor stock alone)

It is boiling well...

We can add kimchi too.

(Add kimchi to gochujang jjigae?)

You will get scolded.

Let me add some.

He'll scold you.

(He added kimchi?)

I think it will be tasty.

(His chopsticks aren't stopping)

(Adding kimchi 3 times)

Things might get sour for 4 days and 3 nights because of this.

(The gochujang jjigae is getting seasoned)

(Chef Cha who is clueless is back)

They gave us lots of kimchi.

Is it good?

We got lots of kimchi.

The smell tells me that the kimchi is well fermented.

(He is still clueless)

(Adding more spiciness as planned)

(He stirs everything so that the flavors mix well)

(He sees unfamiliar leaves)

Why did you add kimchi?

(He got caught right away)

I only added a bit.

This is driving me mad.

Who adds kimchi to gochujang jjigae?

(He doesn't know much about cooking)

I only added a bit.

(He tastes it first)

- It's bad? - Yes. Very bad.

(This is not the gochujang jjigae taste he was expecting)

I didn't add much.

I don't want to cook.

(Flustered)

(He walks away)

(The air immediately gets awkward)

I thought it would be tastier.

(Being wary)

(They fought much earlier than expected)

Have some makgeolli.

Does the flavor change that much?

Why did you add kimchi? Whose idea was it?

It was me.

I added it as I like the sour smell of kimchi. It's bad?

This dish is not meant to be sour.

Really?

Hold on.

(Chef Cha tastes it again)

- Let it simmer... - Can you save it?

It will just taste different.

(This is no longer gochujang jjigae)

(This is something else)

(He only stirs the makgeolli as he feels guilty)

(Silence)

(Seungwon goes to the kitchen in silence)

(Sighing)

(He pours makgeolli without saying a word)

Come here.

(He cautiously offers makgeolli to make up)

(He is no longer angry after seeing Haejin's face)

- I thought it'd make it tastier. - Why did you add kimchi?

I really thought it would be tasty.

You added kimchi when I was away for a moment.

(Thinking about it makes him angry again)

I can't believe you did that.

Right?

(He's getting scolded for touching the dish)

Kimchi.

Have some kimchi.

Please don't be angry.

Don't do that again.

That's my first time.

Actually,

I just messed up his masterpiece.

(Masterpiece)

I told you when you tried to add the kimchi.

I said the relationship will be sour if you do that.

I was too rash.

There's nothing we can do about it.

It's over.

(He immediately prepares to add tofu in it)

He found those right when he arrived.

I thought it would take time.

My goodness.

I saw the leaves.

I didn't add those kind of vegetables.

I thought that everything becomes better with kimchi.

(He just loves kimchi)

It'll be good when I add tofu.

Honestly, I was not planning to add this.

(Tofu, the emergency measure)

He is trying to save it.

(Serious)

We can just eat it like this.

You're turning it into a stew?

(Add garlic)

We need to let it simmer for a long time.

(Emergency measure is done)

(It's done?)

Come here and have some.

(Let's drink more)

(He feels happy now)

Don't think about it.

Let's forget about it.

How can we forget about this?

I will never do it again.

(This dish makes their feeling go on a roller-coaster ride)

What was I doing when you added kimchi?

It was when you went to get chilies.

Why did you leave?

When I tasted it, it was not too tasty.

So I thought that I could add more.

He found out about it right away.

I saw something that looked beaten up in this.

So I wondered what it was.

(You can tell what it is as soon as you see it)

But the makgeolli is tasty.

- It's good. - Yes, it is.

(They get together when happy)

Okay.

(Humble two hands)

I can't help but to use both hands.

Things have never gotten so complicated before.

I shouldn't have done that.

We need the fire to last longer, right?

We just have to let the dish simmer right now.

Let's let it simmer a bit longer. Let's eat now.

Shall I scoop out our rice now?

(The 50% polished rice that was resurrected)

Shall I do it?

Go ahead.

(The stew that has lost its identity featuring kimchi)

(Besides the kimchi)

(The bowl for Seungwon is filled with various ingredients in it)

(A bowl with lots of kimchi)

(This is a bowl for the kimchi lover, Haejin)

That's a lot.

(All they have is a bowl of stew and rice)

(They have kimchi, cucumber and chili as side dishes)

This feels homey.

We haven't had a meal like this in a long time.

Good job.

(This becomes a homey meal)

- Let me taste this. - Bon appetit.

(Both of them taste the gochujang jjigae first)

This is good.

- Not bad, right? - Yes.

- The kim... - What?

I can't taste the kimchi.

For real.

(Yummy)

This is very tasty.

(He is eating in silence perhaps due to hunger)

I think this is our first proper meal of the day.

Yes.

(Current time is 6:20PM)

(Lun...No, dinner time)

You harvested this squash?

Yes.

(Eating the squash too)

The Welsh onion, squash, chili and potato are from here.

(A meal made of ingredients found from the vegetable patch)

(Tasting the potato that he harvested too)

The potato is cooked well.

It's delicious.

(Seungwon tastes the potato too)

(Yummy)

I think the rice is very savory.

I love it.

This rice is perfect for me.

(50% polished rice is perfect for Seungwon)

I hope rice will always be as starchy as this.

I just love this.

(Seungwon never stopped praising the rice)

I doubt I can do this again tomorrow.

I have to burn it and resuscitate it.

(The rice that was burnt and resuscitated again)

I got a kimchi that was in the stew.

(He immediately feels down)

I made sure I didn't serve you any of that kimchi.

(Jeez)

I thought that was onion but it was kimchi.

(The kimchi appears again when he forgot about it)

Let's drink.

(This is the moment to drink)

I won't do that again.

The view here is wonderful.

Yes, it is.

This is just amazing.

(Their first meal in Pyeongchang has ended)

Honey.

You want to do it now?

Well...

Wouldn't we feel at ease to rest if we do that?

Yes, that's true.

I think it's going to rain.

(It might rain anytime)

(Because the sky is covered with dark clouds)

(They immediately set up the tarp)

(Here comes Yoo-gyver)

I have to go higher to tie it.

(Next to him is the reliable Cha)

(Step 1: Attach it at two edges on the roof)

(Then, spread the tarp)

This is good enough, isn't it?

(Checking the spots they will hang it at)

The rope...

This is a strand of rope.

So, why does it not stand?

- Why? - Not stand...

My gosh. No.

(No energy. Laughing)

This is a rope.

Listen...

Just get it done. Okay.

(They start to set up the tarp together)

(Tie it hard so it does not get untied)

Is this good enough?

This is good. Hold on.

After that...

This is done.

With this, when we are inside,

let's eat secretly.

(This is the end to their tarp)

This is a windbreaker.

(This will be our secret hideout)

Done.

(There is still a long way to go)

(Step 2: Attach the other two corners)

I think we should go this far.

We can put poles here.

Then, we can hammer it to the ground.

We can use three ropes to tie this tarp over here.

Is there no way for us to tie this and that side

and pull it over there?

- Yes! - We make the rope taut.

That's true but it has to be of a certain height.

I know what you mean.

First off, we have to support this with a pole.

- Yes. - Do it like this.

Then we can pull it over there.

Yes.

Yes. Then,

we have to tie it on a stone.

It's because we don't have anything to tie it to.

Must we do that?

We can't tie it on anything else.

(They talk for 5 minutes while holding it in one hand)

So for this part,

we can pull it over there

and hammer it in, right?

Can't we do that?

You just don't listen, do you?

Why? We can't do that?

No? That's impossible?

It'll be good if we do that.

But we need to use a stone as there's no spot to tie it at.

It'll be great if we have something to tie it to.

Okay. Fine.

I'm just...

I was wrong.

(He follows Yoo-gyver's advice unlike with the kimchi)

Yes. Fine.

(They are back to the second step)

(He cuts the wood that will support the tarp)

(Hammering a nail in to tie the rope)

This is not easy.

- There is a lot to do. - It is complex.

(When Haejin moves heavy rocks)

(Seungwon fixes the rope)

(When Seungwon transfers the rocks)

(Haejin ties the rope. That is their happy system)

I can just put it here, right? Look at this.

No. Over there.

- It has to go over there. - Far away?

Look at me.

Here.

What do you think? Is this okay?

No. Further.

Hey.

(Yes?)

Decide on the location now.

Where? Point to it now.

Where?

Further away.

- Here? - There.

(Completing the job together in a friendly manner)

(Step 3: Fix the pole that will support the tarp from inside)

(Cut)

(Attach it)

Just one straight line. Yes. Just like that.

Suddenly,

- I'm listening to you. - Yes.

- This is done. - Right?

- This looks okay, right? - Yes.

- Try it. - Let's do a simulation.

That spot might be problematic.

Look at that.

There is a spot that is filled with water.

(He found the flaw in this system)

Here?

I think we should add another pole here, right?

(They put in lots of effort for this)

It would be infuriating if the weather is bright.

(Will the tarp be able to last?)

- We did it. - Good job.

Good job.

We just have to move the furnace now.

(Introducing the tarp that will protect their house)

(Made by Yoo-gyver and Assistant Cha)

(There are 6 poles that support this tarp)

(The tape will make the support even stronger)

(And on top)

(There is also a system for water to flow down the tarp)

This is strong.

(The 3 Meals House's tarp is ready)

We're done with one big task.

(The tasks they had to do from morning to night are over)

(It's time for them to get a breather)

Come here, Bokgu.

Come here.

(Because of Seungwon's sweet call)

Come to daddy.

(Bokgu is running towards its dad)

(Running)

No, don't do that.

Come here.

(Bokgu listens to her dad)

(Lying down)

Good.

That's it.

Good.

You're such a good girl.

I love this place.

(Immersed in the mood of this calm and peaceful summer night)

(Hey)

The tarp looks elegant.

'The tarp looks elegant'?

(Our cool and elegant tarp)

We can make kimchi jjigae too.

(Discussing the menu for tomorrow's guest)

He is very...

He loves a complete meal with soup and sides.

Really? Why?

Well, it's because

I went to the restaurant where he usually

has his meal.

If it rains tomorrow...

Janchi noodles will be good if it rains.

You're getting on my nerves. Show us your money before you talk.

(Haejin was being very honest)

This is a feast.

This is a tent for celebration.

(They decide to make 'feast' as tomorrow's meal theme)

(At that moment)

(The wind suddenly gets stronger)

Look at that. Just look at that.

(One wooden pole is down due to the wind)

But still.

It has landed.

(One was supporting the tarp mid-air)

(It has landed safely)

We can't afford to have even one pole flying.

Why did this fall?

(They thought the tarp was done but that's not true)

(They have to fix it again in the middle of the night)

(Current time is 12:48AM)

(When they are almost done fixing the tarp)

Why is this...

(They found another flaw)

I think we need another rope here.

That's my opinion.

Are you not going to sleep?

It just feels like this tarp is going to fall.

That's not it.

I think we will be the ones who will fall.

(In the end, they added another rope)

(Strong white pole)

(They name the pole too)

(They take a picture in front of the tarp they are proud of)

(They are ready to have a feast tomorrow)

(They wrap up their day late at night)

(It is starting to rain)

(Slowly)

(the rain gets heavier)

(Haejin steps out as he is surprised by the sound of rain)

(My goodness)

Why is it raining very heavily so suddenly?

- What? - Why is it raining so heavily?

You shouldn't have asked me.

I just realized it was raining.

(This amount of rain is unexpected)

(Tonight, the poles don't seem to be in a good state)

(Seungwon couldn't sleep as he is worried about the poles too)

If we lose the tarp, we can just forget about

having a feast tomorrow.

(The feast depends on the poles)

(At that moment)

(A catastrophe is happening in front of my eyes)

This is bad.

(They took hours to set up this tarp)

(This is what Seungwon, who is devastated, thought about)

What about the feast?

Feast.

The feast.

(This J-personality guy is upset the feast plan is out the window)

What will happen to my feast?

The feast...

Haejin is sleeping.

I think he will come out if I tell him about this.

Hold on.

Honey.

Yoo.

Yes.

Come here. We have a big problem.

Why? Everything collapsed?

What should we do?

I just want to sleep.

Come here right now.

Just let it be.

Come out.

Just take a look.

I want to sleep.

(My gosh)

(Then Haejin goes back to sleep)

He does not care about the tarp.

He just doesn't care.

(He faces the reality again)

(He has a simulation of his feast as he is frustrated)

I'm going to bed.

I'll sleep.

(He puts his feast plan that has been destroyed behind him)

(And enters his room)

(Seungwon ends his long day as well)

(The tough first night has ended)

(The refreshing morning of the second day is here)

(The day after the heavy rain)

(The flowers look fresher)

(The sound of a refreshing stream)

(Clean air from the mountain)

(It wakes them up from their deep sleep)

(A new day has dawned on 3 Meals House)

(Haejin is awake)

(He folds his bedding neatly)

(He folds his wool blanket nicely too)

The blanket...

It's nice to have soft bedding even in summer.

I slept well.

(He starts his refreshing morning by folding his blankets neatly)

(Haejin heads out first)

(Shocked)

(This is what he sees right away)

(Evidence from the rough night)

(Scratching)

It withstood the wind last night.

The wind must have been very strong.

(He decided to think about the tarp later)

Did you sleep well?

What did you dream of?

Was it a good dream?

(Pet me more before you leave)

(Haejin is about to start his morning routine)

(Every morning)

(Haejin goes for a jog)

(Today's course)

(He will jog by the vast green corn field)

(He is going to run by the winding stream)

(This is a green path by the corn field)

(After running through this path and enjoying the refreshing air)

(There is a bridge that goes across the stream)

(Haejin stops here for a moment)

(He takes a picture of this beautiful view)

It rained all night.

So the water level is rising.

Is that a heron?

(A bird is flying high up)

This is a refreshing morning.

Go, go, go.

Han River's upper stream, Pyeongchang River.

Yes.

That's right.

Cosmos flowers are blooming.

(He even looks at the flowers that bloom earlier by the river)

In order to protect the potato field,

they installed these sensors.

(Barking)

(Efficient equipment to protect the potato field)

That shocked me.

(The siren suddenly rings)

Okay. I'm leaving.

I'm not a wild boar.

(There is no specific route)

(Haejin runs wherever his feet take him)

(After making a big loop around the village)

(Haejin starts his day with a lot of energy)

(Meanwhile back at home)

(He checks the kkakdugi that he made yesterday)

(Something tasty?)

No. This is spicy.

No. You can't eat this. It's spicy.

(Sad)

(He tastes one)

(Happy)

(He can't believe how skillful he is)

I did well.

(The kkakdugi is a success)

(Next)

(Winter vegetables and young radish kimchi)

(Everybody, come and have a look at my kimchi)

(Someone has come to taste the kimchi)

(Stomping)

This tastes great.

I think this is done.

(The young radish kimchi has fermented well in a day)

It will taste even better

after I keep it in the fridge.

(The birth of a masterpiece)

I did a great job.

Bokgu, I did well.

Hey, Bokgu.

This is amazing.

Bokgu, I did well.

(I want to try it too)

(It is now 9AM)

I think I should do something.

Should I harvest more potatoes?

Anyway, what shall we cook tomorrow?

Let's have scorched rice tomorrow.

Okay. Scorched rice.

We have our stew and let's have julienned potatoes.

I think we should use those.

Yes, let's have stir-fried julienned potatoes.

(Potatoes from yesterday)

(This is a bit tiny)

Do we have something bigger than this?

(You should check it out yourself)

(He pulls out the potato stems first)

(When you dig into the spot where the plant was at)

(Here it comes)

I knew it.

(He found potatoes)

(Laughing)

Yes.

(He found more plump potatoes)

(He has collected enough potatoes)

While I'm at it...

This has its own sense of catharsis too.

Harvesting is fun.

These look good.

(Benefit of harvesting potatoes: It releases dopamine in the body)

(Addicted to harvesting potatoes)

Oh!

(He found a potato that is very big)

This is a stone.

(The harvested potatoes)

(are getting a shower)

(This is a peaceful morning)

(to prepare the first meal of the day)

(Oh, right)

(The tarp...)

(The tarp that has collapsed)

(Haejin is done showering after going on a run)

- This... - Yes!

Please wash one of these.

What do you want me to do with this?

Please wash that for me.

(Laughing)

(Seungwon wants to clean the porch before cooking)

I have to wipe this quickly.

Give me one.

Why? You want to wipe the porch too? Here.

This part is messy.

- This part too. - This is messy.

(The porch is dirty because of the rain and wind last night)

It is almost done fermenting now.

(Oh)

It's warm today.

So it's not bad at all.

(Found the time to brag about his kimchi)

(After cleaning the porch)

(Criteria to become the number one kitchen assistant)

(Empty the pail of organic trash)

It's easy since there is a sensor.

(Cutting edge kitchen)

I don't have to press the trash in the bin.

Okay.

(Housekeeping is done with the latest technology)

(You can even throw organic trash in it)

(It's time to set up the tarp once again)

- Yes. - Let's fix the tarp.

(They decided to prepare the wooden poles first)

Do it like this?

(Seungwon does it first)

(Ah...)

Why are they attached to one another?

Which part is this?

(Seungwon gets tangled up with the tarp)

(And he...)

(has the talented Haejin)

(Yoo-gyver mode is on)

I think this got untied.

(He ties the rope that got untied due to the strong wind)

(Even when they make the wooden pole stand again)

Hold on.

Wait.

(They try to make all the poles stand at the same time)

This is not the main pole?

Where is this for?

Hold it for now.

I will go over there and pull it.

(He picks up the remaining poles)

I see.

(He uses a stronger knot)

(The rope that was placed under the stone)

(Make the knots stronger so it won't get untied again)

(They are done fixing the tarp)

I have to protect the furnace from the rain.

(He found the right spot for the furnace)

(Beside the furnace)

(is a mysterious spot?)

(Actually)

(this is a new spot for firewood)

(Protect the firewood from moisture from the ground)

(He even places dry leaves close to the furnace too)

(He is ready to start a fire)

(At the porch)

(He is busy slicing an onion for stir-fried julienned potato)

Hmm?

Are you bored, Bokgu?

(I need attention)

(Okay)

(This is the best spot)

(She is seated at the best spot to get a single shot)

(In the meantime)

(Seungwon is done slicing half an onion)

(Next is potatoes)

(Slice it)

(And julienne it)

(Julienne it to the right thickness)

Bokgu, what are you doing?

Bokgu.

What are you doing?

(Bokgu is asleep from the chopping board ASMR)

(Julienned potatoes)

(will be left to soak in water for a moment)

(Chef Cha's tip: Soak potatoes in cold water before frying)

(It will reduce some starch and prevent them from sticking)

(Additional dish: Welsh onion rolled omelet)

(Lots of eggs)

(Slice only the green part of Welsh onion)

(Add them into the eggs)

(Cheongyang chilies that they just harvested)

(The chili will add some kick to the dish)

(Stir everything until the yolk has been mixed well)

(Meanwhile, at the furnace)

(He is preparing the usual menu for breakfast)

(Scorched rice mixed with water, nureunbap)

(Featuring 50% polished rice)

(Add enough water to cover the rice)

(Then, place the pot on the furnace with fire)

(Cover it with a lid)

(The nureunbap will be ready)

(Sighing)

So today,

- we will have breakfast. - Yes.

And go grocery shopping?

Yes, we have to.

Go sightseeing too?

Yes. That's right.

Might as well while we are out.

And

we have to buy several things.

(The thought of going shopping)

(makes him smile)

We should just go for it.

It doesn't matter if we hurt our backs.

Let's just go all out for now.

- A guest is coming too. - Yes.

There is a potato field in front of us, right?

You can harvest and sell them as you please.

Where are we going to sell them?

We can sell them for 50 cents per kilo.

The potatoes that you harvest

will be sold to the owner who will come on the day we leave.

(Laughing)

Why?

- It feels like... - Yes?

- We are like a tiger moth. - Yes, that's right.

- We will just go for it. - Just go for it.

(They forget about their work and only think of shopping)

I hope that we have this too.

We don't have ingredients to make suyuk, right?

We don't. Why?

During feasts.

we usually eat bossam.

- What do you think? - We can buy that.

- What? - We can buy the ingredients.

We have a big field here.

The whole area is money.

(This field is full of money)

Since you're rich, what you see right now...

You know that

we will escape at night after eating, don't you?

We will fly away after our meal.

(They have good chemistry)

(The nureunbap has started to boil)

(It is saved right away to prevent it from becoming lava)

(Taking one spoonful)

(Slurping)

Is it okay?

It's good.

(Nureunbap goes out)

(Mesh goes in)

(Next up)

(Leftover kimchi gochujang jjigae from last night)

That looks good.

What looks good?

It's good. This is tasty.

(Dumbfounded)

(He walks away)

Let's eat and clean this up.

I'm reminded of that incident each time I see it.

(The stew that destroys peace)

(After the stew is boiling)

(Here comes the frying pan)

(Heat some oil)

(Add shredded potato that sounds good)

(Salt)

(Black pepper)

(He is cooking the potatoes using steam)

(After he removes the lid)

(The julienned potatoes are cooked and soft)

(Stir-fry it to make sure the potatoes are cooked well)

It needs more time.

(Plate the stir-fried potatoes that are ready on the table first)

You set it up like that?

(The beaten eggs that were prepared earlier)

(Pour some to make a thin layer on the pan)

(Once the outer sides have cooked and become fluffy)

(Carefully rolling it)

(Rolling it again without being flustered)

(He puts his heart and soul into it until the last moment)

(He rolls the final part on the floor to control the heat)

(The fluffy Welsh onion rolled omelet is done)

(The omelet that is done)

(It is left to cool down before being cut)

(This is what Haejin is doing)

(Nureunbap that has been cooled down to the perfect temperature)

(He scoops it into a bowl)

(The rolled omelet that has cooled down and set)

(Slicing carefully)

(Plating the omelet nicely)

(Empty bowl)

Is this for kimchi?

I'm going to cut some young radish kimchi.

You have to scoop the one at the bottom.

I'll do it. Make way for me.

(The kimchi master only feels satisfied after plating himself)

(He chooses the kimchi that is at the bottom of the container)

(A lot)

Done.

This is a lot.

(They have a big meal in the morning)

This looks delicious.

(Savory nureunbap that is cloudy)

(And spicy gochujang jjigae)

(Crunchy winter vegetables and young radish kimchi)

Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(Rolled omelet and stir-fried sliced potatoes too)

- Let's eat. - Let's dig in.

(Their big breakfast on the first morning)

(The first thing he chose is Welsh onion rolled omelet)

(Yummy)

Delicious.

This is seasoned to perfection.

(Chef Cha starts with rolled omelet too)

This is it.

(The savory and salty dish makes him take more)

(Slurping)

(Wow)

(The nureunbap leaves him in awe)

(Slurping)

(The blandness somehow makes them hold the bowl close to them)

The rice...

I hope it will always taste like this.

Just like yesterday.

(Savory 50% polished rice)

(Taking a big mouthful)

(Next is winter vegetables and young radish kimchi)

(Crunchy)

The young radish...

After today,

it will be completely fermented.

Try it.

(Which one?)

These get fermented quickly.

It tastes good now.

Not a bit more?

It's good now too.

(Mr. Yoo would ask for nothing more)

These get fermented within one night?

(Chef Cha's magic to fermentation with yogurt and good temperature)

(Yummy)

I have to eat this.

(Taking a mouthful of golden brown stir-fried potatoes)

(Yummy)

(After eating some well-seasoned stir-fried shredded potato)

(He eats the nureunbap)

This is tasty.

- Eat this. - You eat it.

(They are giving the final omelet to one another)

Cut it into half?

You eat it.

Just eat it.

- Eat it. - I really don't want it.

Just eat that.

You should have this.

- My goodness. - Here.

(Just passing it)

(Chewing)

(They share the omelet)

This is a good meal.

I can't believe this.

We ate everything.

I think the rice today was amazing.

(One bowl of nureunbap has gone empty)

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(Breakfast is over)

Shall we head out now?

(They head to the town to prepare for a feast)

What should we make?

Is there a lot we have to prepare?

We will make suyuk

and chives pancake.

I think we need

another furnace.

- That'll make things easier. - Yes, you're right.

One can be used to make suyuk.

That would work.

Let's have another one.

Also, coffee...

We need to buy coffee powder.

(They arrive at the town while planning out their lunch)

- Hello. - Hello.

(They visit the butcher to execute their suyuk plan)

We are going to make suyuk.

(Thinking hard as they are not only having a guest)

(but they will be having a feast)

I think we'll have 800g of meat.

I don't eat that much.

But still.

Please give us 800g of meat.

This is slightly more than 800g.

This much is fine.

(800g of pork shoulder for $25)

(This is worth around 50kg of potatoes)

Please give us some bay leaves.

(They get coffee powder to add color for free)

Thank you.

The total is $25?

(He pays $25 in a cool way)

Thank you.

(They head home with 800g of pork shoulders)

I should have bought more.

Why? That won't be enough.

(This generous man feels like 800g of meat is not enough)

(Where have you been?)

(Bokgu welcomes them from afar)

Bokgu, Bokgu, Bokgu, Bokgu.

My goodness.

She is welcoming us.

You've been waiting for us?

You're here to welcome us?

Oh dear, my dear.

Go. Go in.

Come here. Good girl.

(A moment of peace for Bokgu)

Let's go.

(Meanwhile...)

I am in my private mode.

(This man who is like someone in the military is in the van)

We're almost there.

- You're not trembling, are you? - I'm nervous.

(This guest has never met Seungwon and Haejin)

You're not frozen, are you?

Don't be.

(He is extremely nervous now)

(He brought a watermelon too)

I am so nervous to meet them

perhaps because I haven't had caffeine in a long time.

How can someone who is as anxious as you

hold a concert at a large stadium?

(Ah)

(He can't be interviewed as he is anxious)

I'm nervous.

(The vehicle he is in is getting closer to the house)

(Our guest has arrived)

(For the guest who is nervous)

(Here comes the pickup service)

(Meanwhile)

That is dangerous for Bokgu.

Bokgu!

(He is on his way to get Bokgu)

There is a puppy.

Hello.

Let's go. Come on.

Come.

(The pickup service is over)

I'm nervous.

I'm scared.

(The first guest is walking over anxiously)

Our guest has arrived.

Mr. Cha!

Our guest has arrived.

- What? - Our guest is here.

Really?

What...

Both of his hands are full.

Really?

(Bowing)

Hello.

(You, me, and everybody knows)

(The first guest on '3 Meals A Day Light', Lim Youngwoong)

Help him right now.

Hello.

(The first precious guest of 3 Meals House)

Nice to meet you.

(Shaking hands)

What are those?

I brought potted plants...

(Getting ready to shake hands)

I bought a plant as a gift.

I'll carry that.

No, that's fine. Come in.

- Thanks for coming. - Hello.

He's tall, isn't he?

What is your height?

I'm 182cm.

See. I told you he is very tall.

(Laughing)

Why did you buy a potted plant?

I was thinking about what to bring

and I thought you would like this.

- I see. - I see.

(They are fascinated that they get to meet each other)

I'm glad you're here.

Have you had breakfast?

I ate something simple.

We should have lunch now.

(The first guest of 3 Meals House is Lim Youngwoong)

It's over once you get changed.

You're no longer a guest now.

I'm planning to build another furnace.

Please bring this over there.

Do you like camping?

Youngwoong...Youngwoong.

Yes.

(Things are still awkward as it's their first time meeting)

Lim.

That sounds rude.

Hold on, Youngwoong.

Youngwoong.

(Soon enough, they become closer to Youngwoong)

(On the other hand)

(Struggling)

(Rolling)

(He is clumsy but hardworking)

You don't mind doing it, do you?

(The newbie is still lost)

I like soft rice.

You have to eat hard-boiled rice here.

I think I like that.

(But he adapts to this place soon enough)

(He can now assist them naturally)

(He slowly becomes part of 3 Meals House)

(Chef Cha shows his skills suitable for a feast)

(Lots of hard-boiled rice that Youngwoong loves)

(A big mouthful of love from Haejin and Seungwon)

I can't stop eating because it's so delicious.

(What kind of influence can we see from Youngwoong's arrival?)

Who put this here?

I did.

You told me to.

This is mind-blowing.

Seasoning container.

They are adorable.

He drew it.

Let me see. Does it look good?

The seasoning...

Is that fart?

Where is the mistake?

Here. I wrote it at the back.

Sorry.
