IT'S DAY 8 OF BUSINESS
WITH TWO BRILLIANT PART-TIMERS

WITH HER LOVELINESS…

I should've brought this size,
but I brought this one instead.

…BOYOUNG CONTINUES
TO LIVEN UP THE MARKET

- Okay!
- Okay, all right.

MEANWHILE, INBEE THE PRO COOK

MAKES SPICY PORK DEOPBAP

It looks delicious.

EVERYONE ENJOYS HER FOOD

It's like a champion food.

AND THANKS TO THE CUSTOMERS

- They should taste good.
- Which ones are they, though?

It's like a buffet today.

THEY ENJOY A TABLE FULL OF FOOD

- Thank you for your hard work, everyone.
- Thank you.

DAY 8 ENDS LIKE SO

It's a great morning!

AND IN COMES THE LAST DAY

EVERYONE IS VERY FAMILIAR
WITH THE MORNING ROUTINE NOW

PLUS,
THE LAST PART-TIMER ARRIVES

- That's Kyungmin. Isn't that him?
- What?

Wow, this is...

THE MARKET'S FINAL STORY
WITH KYUNGMIN THE ENDING FAIRY

He brought his guitar.

…STARTS NOW

My goodness. Seriously.

TRUDGING

Oh, my word. What's this?

Surprise!

- Hello.
- Hello, sir!

THE OFFICIAL SINGER
OF UNEXPECTED BUSINESS,

HONG KYUNGMIN,
GROANS AS HE ENTERS

HE ALWAYS CAME ON THEIR LAST DAY

Okay, allow me to uplift the mood,
while you're eating.

TO HIGHLIGHT UNFINISHED
BUSINESS' GRAND FINALE EVENT

Unexpected Business, season two.

I can't believe I'm doing this again.

We're here at Woncheon.

WONCHEON-RI,
SEASON 2: GONGSAN-MYEON

Are you upset?

THIS TIME, KYUNGMIN
FLEW ALL THE WAY TO THE US!

WELCOME

- A kimbap angel is here.
- What in the world?

Yes, he's here!

Hey! Hurry and get the rice
and make kimbap...

Byungeun, take him.

THE WELCOME PARTY IS OVER

Wow.

I'm sorry we're not more welcoming.

- Man, what is... What?
- Put on some gloves.

No proper greetings, huh?

THE LAST PART-TIMER

Byungeun, we've never met before.

- Please speak comfortably. No, really.
- Oh, no.

- Oh, my.
- Please.

- Goodness.
- This is hell.

This is a living hell.

Geez, this is... Gosh, the kimbap...

ESCAPE ATTEMPT

Hold on.

Go back? Tell me what's going on.

You know how to roll kimbap, no?

- Kimbap?
- He'll help you prep right now.

- Sesame oil and...
- It's not set up yet?

Should be there, no?

Where... Where are the ingredients?

Mr. Yoon!

Please prepare the kimbap ingredients.

- Yes, yes, yes.
- Kyungmin the kimbap agent is here.

- Yes, yes. I will, I will.
- He keeps... He keeps escaping.

- Wait, let me just...
- Welcome. Welcome today. Come here.

Let me at least greet people.

- Come on!
- You already did.

Well, that was…

Why are you treating me as if
I came here from right around the corner?

- We don't have time for that.
- Hey.

- You kept us waiting long enough.
- I flew here all the way from Korea!

I know. Good job.

Wait... Hey.

I'll set up the kimbap for you.

- We need to get some ice.
- I'll go get it.

You guys are so…

SCARILY SYSTEMATIC

It's odd... We're trying to help.

- You guys are acting too odd...
- No, we're just trying to help.

Someone is here to roll the kimbap.

EVERYTHING'S ALL SET
IN AN INSTANT

All of you seem so experienced.

One, two, three, four, five.

- So it has five ingredients?
- Yes.

Oh, this is how it's done.

Here's the rice.

THE RICE IS FINISHED,
JUST IN TIME…

You can just put the seaweed like this.

I already did it.

They don't spread the rice thick here.

So you need to spread it thinly.

It should... No, no.

It should be about the size
of a tennis ball.

They don't like it bulky.

But not too thin, either.

The rule here is to make it thin.

When you see the finished result,
you'll think, "Oh, the kimbap is thin."

Is it supposed to be this thin?

Yes, that's right.

At the end, use your fingers
to coat it with sesame oil.

- Done. Yes.
- Oh, it's thin.

ONE ROLL OF KIMBAP IS DONE!

But that one's still pretty thick.

I see.

MEANWHILE, A CUSTOMER
ENTERS THE MARKET

Hi.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Did you find kimbap?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, yeah. How many do you want?

- How many? Three.
- Three?

Yes, just a minute, please.

- Do we have any?
- Can we quickly make three rolls?

They're rolling them right now.

A SUDDEN KIMBAP ORDER

Three? I should hurry. Okay, okay.

KYUNGMIN'S NIMBLE HANDS
PICK UP THE INGREDIENTS

Do we have to slice them?

- No, just... Yes.
- Don't slice them?

They eat like this.

It's their style.

Do you like juice?

Yeah.

- Gift for you. Gift for you.
- Yeah, yeah.

- It's CCA, CCA.
- It has carrot, apple...

What's this?

Carrot, apple, cabbage.

- Oh, healthy.
- Yeah.

- Yeah, very healthy. Yeah.
- Cheers.

SLURPS

- Yeah. Enjoy.
- Very good?

- Thank you so much.
- No.

- Hello.
- You're welcome. My pleasure.

Kimbap?

- Kimbap, yeah.
- Yeah.

Just five minute.

Yeah, about five minute.

- Five minutes? Oh, okay.
- Yeah.

- Thank you.
- Three?

Three more rolls.

Six rolls in total.

Six, okay.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Is the kimbap...

Kimbap...

So you need to make nine in total.

- The plan…
- Okay.

The plan has changed a lot.

This is...

BUT, ISN'T HE HERE TO SING?

EVEN SO, HE'S DOING HIS BEST

THANKS
TO THEIR COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS,

NINE ROLLS OF KIMBAP
ARE QUICKLY BEING MADE

Here's your kimbap!

What I'm waiting for.

- Really? Sorry.
- Beautiful stuff.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Thank you for waiting.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

Thank you. Have a good one.

- Thank you so much.
- Yeah.

- Have a great day.
- You too. You guys have a great one.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Have a safe flight back to Korea.

- Yes, thank you.
- Yes, thank you.

Glad I'm here.

THANK YOU, BUT…

Guess this is what I'm doing.

I JUST GOT HERE…

Do we have don katsu sauce?

YESTERDAY EVENING

Oh, we're making something else tomorrow.

- What are you making?
- Juhwan said...

- Juhwan said he wants to make…
- Make what?

…our version of egg don katsu with me.

Egg don katsu sounds good.

It'll be easy to fry it with this.

It's perfect.

READY TO GO WITH THE INGREDIENTS
FOUND AT THE MARKET

Do you use boiled eggs?

Yes, boiled eggs

and you wrap the boiled egg
with ground meat and fry it.

Then you cut it.

The yolk oozes out.

THE OOZING YOLK IS KEY

- Do you get it?
- Yeah.

- Sounds good.
- I know, right?

- You'll season the meat?
- Yes.

THEY'RE GOING TO MAKE
A SAMPLE FIRST

MIX THE GROUND PORK
AND BEEFON A 1:1 RATIO

SEASON IT WITH SALT AND PEPPER

I'm going to add this
to the meat for texture.

THE MEAT IS READY
ONCE IT'S ALL MIXED

NEXT IS TO MAKE THE BREADING

FIRST, ADD MILK TO THE EGG WATER

NEXT, ADD SEASONED FLOUR
AND CURRY POWDER

ONCE YOU MIX THEM TOGETHER,
THE EGG WASH IS READY

DIP THE RUNNY-YOLK EGG
INTO COLD WATER

PEEL THE EGG CAREFULLY
TO MAINTAIN ITS SHAPE\

AND WRAP IT WITH GROUND MEAT

ROLL IT IN THE EGG WASH FIRST,

THEN ROLL IT AROUND
IN THE BREADCRUMBS

I'll throw one in first.

WILL THE EGG DON KATSU
LIVE UP TO THEIR EXPECTATIONS…?

10 MINUTES HAVE PASSED

THE EGG DON KATSU
SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN FRIED WELL

- Sounds crispy.
- I know, right?

- Shall we cut it?
- Let me.

Okay.

SUPER CAREFUL

Wow.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A SUCCESS…

- It's fried well. Yes.
- Good. This is what I envisioned.

Yes, this is it.

- Let's boil the egg more.
- Will do.

- Okay, that's good.
- All right, eggs.

CRISPY ON THE OUTSIDE,
MOIST ON THE INSIDE

Try it.

CHEF ZO TRIES A BITE…

THUMBS UP

It'll be perfect with ramyeon.

Mr. Zo, a customer from earlier...

HE CALLS BOYOUNG
OVER TO THE SIDE

Boyoung, come here.

DIPS IT IN DON KATSU SAUCE
AND GIVES HER A SMALL PIECE

You'll see that it's sweet and salty.

Right?

FURROWED BROW OF APPROVAL

- Is it okay?
- Yes.

Might be better mixed.

IT'S UNSPEAKABLY GOOD~

MR. CHA DIPS IT IN THE SAUCE
AND TRIES IT TOO

Is it good?

- We're good.
- Okay.

THE FINAL MENU ITEM,
EGG DON KATSU IS A GO

HERE'S ONE MAN WHO
CANNOT ESCAPE THE KIMBAP CORNER

Red flowers, yellow flowers
Even if a field of flowers blooms

SINGING A LABOR SONG SOLO

Even if a white butterfly,
A flower butterfly flies over the wall

ALREADY MASTERED KIMBAP

Even when the warm spring breeze blows

I'm still rolling kimbap as well as can be

Amazing.

Wow, we made so many.

KIMBAP ROLLS ARE PILING UP

We're making kimbap faster,
now that you are here.

Taehyun, the kimbap quality is so good.

- Look.
- Wow, this is…

- I know!
- I mean, this is…

Yes, this is what I wanted.

- This is it.
- Exactly this size.

- The perfect size.
- You are really…

You guys are acting weird.
Am I on Hidden Camera?

A Hidden Camera episode all the way here?

Mr. Lee Kyungkyu, come on out!

- Goodness.
- Love your kimbap roll size!

He's really good.

- I got this.
- Whoa.

He's really the best.

NEATLY ROLLED!

THE SPECIAL AGENT FINISHES
ROLLING THE KIMBAP IN HIS HAND

HE TAKES OFF HIS GLOVES SLOWLY…

AND MAKES HIS ESCAPE

FIRST, HE STROLLS TO THE COUNTER

Did I really make all these?

- Yes.
- He's finally escaped.

Finally.

He's out. Finally, he's escaped.

- I'm finally taking a look around.
- Yes.

Wow, seriously.

HE FINALLY GETS
TO SEE THE OUTSIDE WORLD…

LOL

This is my first time
seeing the store sign.

Come, sit here.

Hi, hello.

KYUNGMIN TAKES HIS TIME
LOOKING AROUND THE MARKET

First time seeing it?

Wow.

- At least the weather is great today.
- Wow.

We're in the US, but...

Yes, this is the US.

This is the US!

I don't feel like I'm in the US.
Not even one bit.

THIS MAY BE THE US, BUT THIS IS…

Why does it feel like a bigger Hwacheon?

It's so funny.

If you want to feel like you're in the US,
then you can be a cashier.

What?

All right. Get in there.
Stand next to Boyoung.

Kyungmin says
he can't tell if this is the US.

- Make him feel like he is.
- Okay.

IF YOU WANT A TASTE OF THE US

- Thanks.
- You can just make small talk

while you bag the groceries.

- Do I stand here?
- Yes.

I did, I did. Yeah.

Oh, cool.

Oh, cool.

MAKING SMALL TALK IS EASY

- Thank you.
- Okay, thank you.

Hello.

First, let's...

- Two, four...
- Let's make all that.

Yeah, let's make them all at once.

I'll wrap them then.

- Okay.
- Okay.

CHEF ZO IS ON WRAPPING DUTY

CAREFULLY COVERS THE EGG
SO IT DOESN'T BREAK APART

THEN, PLACES THE MEAT-COVERED
EGG IN THE EGG WASH

INBEE IS ON BREADCRUMB DUTY

AND MAKES SURE THE BREADING
EVENLY COVERS THE EGG

These look so cute, just sitting here.

So cute.

HUDDLED IN ONE PLACE

Let's just fry these first.

We'll fry the rest when we run out.

JUWHAN IS ON FRYING DUTY

ONCE THE FIRST FRY IS FINISHED,
THE PREP WORK IS DONE

INBEE WRITES THE NEW MENU ITEM

AS DISCUSSED,

RAMYEON & EGG DON KATSU
WILL BE SOLD AS A COMBO

ENGLISH VER. OF MENU

- Today is ramyeon and...
- Egg don katsu.

It's a lunch combo.

- We made a lunch menu.
- Egg don katsu.

EVERYONE WILL LOVE
EGG DON KATSU AND RAMYEON

KYUNGMIN RETURNS
TO THE KIMBAP CORNER

AFTER GETTING A TASTE OF THE US

Hello.

- Hi.
- Hi.

What's in the drink?

Korean traditional drink.

Name is sikhye.

- Can we get two?
- Two?

WHILE HE PREPARES
TWO CUPS OF SIKHYE

MORE SIKHYE CUSTOMERS ARRIVE

MR. ZO COMES TO HELP

Am I not doing this right?

- No, no, no.
- No? Is this right?

PERFECT COORDINATION

- Thank you very much.
- Thank you so much.

THE SIKHYE SALES GOES WELL

- Okay.
- Thank you.

…WITH THE DUO

They all here for sikhye?

Who knew sikhye would sell so well!

I did, though.

THESE TWO EVEN FIND A PLACE
TO SIT TO ENOJY THEIR DRINK

ALONG WITH KIMBAP,

SIKHYE IS NOW
THE MARKET'S SIGNATURE MENU ITEM

Excuse me.

Can you help me?

- Sure. Oh, wow.
- Ninety. She's 90.

A 90-YEAR-OLD CUSTOMER
VISITS THE MARKET

- He's a superstar in Korea.
- Oh, my.

- Oh, thank you.
- Nice to meet you.

- A movie star?
- Nice to meet you.

He's amazing kind.

THE 90-YEAR-OLD CUSTOMER
ENTERS THE MARKET

- Ginseng. Yes, ginger.
- Yeah, ginger and honey.

- Oh, yeah. That's the one.
- Yeah. That's a ginger.

NEXT, SHE SHOPS
FOR FRESH VEGGIES

IT'S WHERE THE SPECIAL AGENT
IS CARRYING OUT HIS MISSION

HE CATCHES THEIR ATTENTION

- You wanna see?
- Yeah, what are you making?

- Excuse me?
- Yeah?

Can we see something for her?

- She wanna... She love that.
- Yeah.

- Oh, my!
- Hello.

Oh, you're Hong Kyungmin!

We have kimbap up front.

- Oh, what I mean is...
- Yes?

We drove three hours to eat this.

I brought her her all the way from
Yosemite because she loves kimbap.

She wanted to see how it was made.

- Would that be okay?
- Of course.

Come here. Come.

SUPER EXCITED

- It's so nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

You place down the dried seaweed.

- So you know that one, seaweed?
- Yeah.

Yeah, and then rice...

THE SPECIAL AGENT STARTS
SPREADING THE RICE

That's special.

You're so good.

Not at all. I'm just…

ANYONE CAN TELL
THE SPECIAL AGENT IS SKILLED

I'll give you one.

Oh, wow!

You love that?

For you.

- This is...
- How are you so good?

This is my gift to you.

- Thank you. Thank you.
- Yes, ma'am.

A GIFT FOR COMING
ALL THE WAY HERE…

She's crying.

There's no need for that, is there?

Thank you.

- She's been lonely recently.
- Mmm, I see.

She's quite lonely.

She has children,
but they don't live with her.

So I take her out sometimes.

That's kind of you.

I'm so grateful
that you're doing this for her.

Wow.

Don't cry, Joanne.

THEY UNEXPECTEDLY MET
AND BECAME LIKE FAMILY

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Thank you. This way, please.

FOR THE CUSTOMERS
WHO MUST TRAVEL FAR

Mr. Yoon.
I'll pay for the two rolls of kimbap.

I see.

She wanted to see how kimbap was made

- so she drove three hours here.
- Goodness.

- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

I'll pray for you.

Joanne? Take care.

HE OFFERS HIS FAREWELL

See you. See you later.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

THANKS TO KYUNGMIN'S SMALL GIFT,

THEY LEAVEWITH A SPECIAL MEMORY

Goodbye. Take care.

- Thank you.
- Bye-bye.

- God bless you.
- Yes, thank you.

WE HOPE THIS WAS
A PLEASANT OUTING

LUNCH SALES BEGIN

THESE CUSTOMERS HAPPILY
CHATTER AWAY

AS THEY ENTER THE MARKET

Oh, hi!

It's me again.

You decided to come after much thought?

- Oh, yes.
- Okay.

- That's why I brought a colleague.
- Okay, after much thought.

MR. CHA RUNS OVER
UPON HEARING THE NEWS

Mr. K-biscuit!

Yes, here I am.

- I buy a lot from here.
- You sure are popular.

- I've stopped by a few times.
- Wow.

THIS FAMILIAR FACE
IS MR. K-BISCUIT

- Do you have crackers? Crackers.
- What?

Your Korean is good!

- I was so surprised just now.
- Korean crackers? Just one second.

- Do you have them?
- Oh, here it is!

- This one?
- I finally found it!

I found it!

- I finally found it!
- I found it!

- I finally found it.
- I finally found it.

Korean crackers, crackers.

Why are you so popular, sir?

I don't know.

I'm not so sure.

Oh, but you are popular.

I don't know about that.

Did you make your order?

- Don katsu, then...
- Don katsu.

- And ramyeon, huh?
- Okay.

THE COOKING STARTS
AS SOON AS THE ORDER COMES IN!

NOW,
LET'S BEGIN WITH THE RE-FRY!

The hoppang looks good.

You've tried it, huh?

A very long time ago.

I haven't had it in so long.

- Wow.
- You amazed?

SEEING HOPPANG AFTER SO LONG

The memories...

- It brings back memories.
- They sure do.

- I was in Korea when I last saw...
- That's right.

When I was in Korea,
most people, almost everyone...

Most Koreans were very kind to me.

That's how I could open my heart up.

Which is why you studied Korean hard.

Yeah.

Yeah, that too, and...

When you sleep,
which language do you dream in?

Do you dream in English or in Korean?

- Both... Sometimes I dream in Korean.
- Right?

One time,
President Obama appeared in my dream.

Oh, really?

I was so surprised.

- I was speaking in English.
- "That was pretty good. Yeah."

"I... I know him well."

A QUICK IMPRESSION
OF FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA

"This is what we gotta do."

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

- "Oh, well..."
- Oh, well.

NOW THAT WE'RE AT IT…

- "Excuse me."
- "Great America."

…LET'S TRY PRESIDENT TRUMP TOO

- "Excuse me."
- "Great America."

- Sorry?
- "Excuse..." Oh, no.

I'm doing an impression
of President Trump.

Ah, yes.

Uh-huh. Okay.

THE FOOD IS ALL DONE

Careful, it's hot.

HERE'S YOUR ORDER

Thank you.

Enjoy.

- Thank you for the food.
- Thank you for the food.

- It looks delicious.
- It does.

SHE TAKES A SIP OF THE SOUP
FIRST

Thank you for the food.

It's really good.

It's so good.

I mean, it's so good.

HE TAKES A SIP TOO!

This tastes like
an authentic Korean ramyeon.

Oh, yeah.

PLEASED

HE METICULOUSLY SLURPS OUT
THE CRAB MEAT

- Is it good?
- Yes.

- At first, it...
- Finger-lickin' good.

"Finger-lickin' good," huh?

HIS DIALECT
NEVER CEASES TO SURPRISE

"Finger-lickin' good."

THIS TIME,
HE TRIES THE EGG DON KATSU

It's so good.

Thank you.

This is like a feast.

MEANWHILE, THE MARKET
IS BUSY WITH CUSTOMERS

I like this.

- Yeah, it's good.
- Yeah.

DESPITE THE BUSY VIBE,
OUR KIMBAP SPECIAL AGENT

COMPLETES HIS MISSION DILIGENTLY

- Three multiplied by two-zero, kimbap.
- Oh, there's more.

Do you know him?

I'm Korean famous singer. Yeah.

- Oh, hello.
- Yeah.

My nickname is "Ricky Martin of Korea."

Ricky Martin?

Twenty-three years ago, yeah…

He's Hong-ky Martin!

RUSHES OFF

Hong-ky Martin, Hong-ky Martin.

HE ESCAPES TO THE KIMBAP CORNER,
HIS PLACE OF REFUGE

LOL

AFTER HAVING A GOOD LAUGH
IN FRONT OF HIS TROUBLED FRIEND

MR. CHA LEAVES WITHOUT A WORD

You didn't gossip about me, did you?

No!

THE SOUTH KOREAN RICKY MARTIN'S
KIMBAP-ROLLING CONTINUES…

- Okay, you can take it out.
- Mr. Yoon!

- Yeah? Yeah!
- Can I help you?

You need receipt?

- No thank you.
- Okay, thank you.

- Do you want a bag today? Yes?
- Yes, please.

- Bye.
- Thank you.

THE LONG LINE
SHRINKS IN AN INSTANT

Good job.

We make a nice team.

NOW THAT THEY'VE TAKEN CARE OF
ALL THE CUSTOMERS

AND THERE IS STILL
SOME KIMBAP LEFT

You can really take your time now.

How many do we have left?

We have enough.

Trust me.

Didn't you say that earlier?

You were sure we had enough,
but it went down so quickly…

What time is it now?

It's 1:20 p.m.

For real?

Already?

So you can take your time.

I don't believe you.

I won't believe you!

I won't believe you!

LOL,
KIMBAP WILL VANISH IN A FLASH

Have you been doing well? In Korea?

All I do is work
and spend time with the kids.

WARMLY GREETING ONE ANOTHER
AFTER 5 HOURS

That's all I do.

The funny thing is,
I'd never met Byungeun before.

But we immediately began working
without proper introduction.

That's a luxury we can't afford.

- I've been duped.
- Kyungmin, you still rolling?

- I've been fooled by those punks.
- You've been fooled?

- I have.
- Keep 'em coming.

I've been fooled.

We are running out of kimbap, my friend.

- Again?
- Yes.

I knew it.

Earlier, Boyoung was like,

"You can take your time now."

Kyungmin told her, "I don't believe you."

- I don't, and I won't.
- You're right. You shouldn't.

Two of you punks fooled me.

- How did they?
- They said I'd only sing on the last day.

Well, it'd be a shame if you came
all the way to the US only to sing.

Does it make it any better
to come all the way here to make kimbap?

- Come on.
- Seriously, what?

APOLOGETICALLY
MAKES HIMSELF SCARCE

- Mr. Yoon!
- Yes, Taehyun?

KYUNGHO LEAVES SOON AFTER

REALITY IS HARSH HERE

No, we don't have enough cups.

I've been cooped up in the kitchen,
so this whole time,

I didn't get to see you much.

- Is that so?
- Yes.

How are you so fluent in Korean?

Nah, I'm only a smidgen fluent.

- If so...
- I can't speak like a native speaker.

- Come on.
- I can't, it's impossible.

You aren't a native speaker?

- A darker-skin-toned one, maybe? Right?
- You're right!

No, I mean,
your English is excellent for a Korean.

That's correct, yes.

I wish. I wish...
I'm not that fluent, really.

Wasn't it hard to learn at first?

I learned the letters.

Before I went to Korea,

- I learned a tiny bit in the States.
- You studied it?

- I was in high school.
- I see.

That's when a Korean family
had immigrated to the US.

So, the eldest son...
I became friends with their eldest son.

- But he...
- So you got closely acquainted…

- Yes, right.
- …with an immigrant family?

Yes, they lived very close by.

He didn't know much English,

and I didn't know Korean.

- At all.
- Not a single word.

That's why I began to teach him English.

- And he introduced me to Korean.
- He taught you Korean.

So…

He said it was like fate.

- That's right. It's destiny.
- Yeah, destiny.

FINDING OUT ABOUT KOREA
FELT LIKE FATE

It's destiny.

I'm not sure about the work,
but were you serving in Korea?

Yes, I was stationed there twice.

- You were a soldier?
- Yes, I went in the 1980s.

THE US ARMY SENT HIM
TO KOREA IN THE 1980S

I was there for three and a half years.

Where were you stationed?
Was it Dongducheon?

My battalion was...
You know Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province?

- Gwangju.
- So, from there,

my battalion was 4 kilometers north
of Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province.

- Around there?
- I was a signal corps.

Yes, a signal corps.

Hearing a non-Korean ask a Korean
if they know Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province…

- There are two cities called Gwangju.
- That's right.

- There's also one in Jeolla Province.
- Yes, yes.

The fact that you know that too
is truly remarkable.

- A unique character.
- Correct.

Something happened when I was in Korea.

- I was riding the city bus.
- Yes?

And the city bus was packed.

So I was standing, holding a grab handle.

And one lady
was walking backwards like this.

- She backed into you?
- She bumped into me, looked up and went...

"Unni, it's a black man, a black man!"

- When I heard that, I didn't feel great…
- No, of course not.

- But I calmed down.
- Yes, yes.

"Ma'am, there's no need for that."

I'm an African-American.
Please try to speak more nicely.

So the others were like, "Wow!"

Clap, clap, clap!

- Yeah. Wow.
- That happened.

It was good of you to teach her.

- She did apologize.
- Yeah.

"Oh, yes, mister. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

- That's how it was in Korea back then.
- Right.

But Koreans get along
with foreigners so well now.

It's no longer awkward
seeing foreigners on TV.

Our culture has changed significantly.

After the 1988 Olympics,
the number of foreigners grew.

Yes, very much.

Is it your first time in the US?

- It's my first time in San Francisco.
- Is that so?

This is a very special neighborhood.

After the Korean War,
the US military moved here.

The "Imjin" from Imjin Parkway
is named after Imjin River.

- Is that where it's from?
- So, it... Yes, Imjin Parkway.

WHILE DRIVING OVER TO THE MARKET
ON THEIR FIRST DAY

We're exiting the highway now.

THE SIGN THEY SAW…

Turn left here.

…WHILE ENTERING MARINA

Not yet, right?

Imjin?

Imjin?

WHEN 7TH INFANTRY
DIVISION MOVED FROM KOREA,

THEY NAMED IT "IMJIN" IN HONOR
OF THE BATTLE OF INCHEON

WHERE THE INFANTRY ONCE FOUGHT

They named it after Imjin River.

Oh, my stomach. My tummy is full.

What if I get into a food coma?

A food coma.

I can't get into a food coma in class.

- Come on.
- I'm just playing.

- It was a meal to remember.
- Thank you for enjoying the food.

- Thank you.
- No worries.

- Be well.
- Thank you.

- Take care.
- Yes, thank you.

THEY'VE BUILT RAPPORT
IN SUCH A SHORT TIME

- Thank you.
- Sure.

It was nice to meet you.

THEY BID EACH OTHER FAREWELL
WITH A SIMPLE HUG

- Goodbye.
- Take care.

IT WAS NICE MEETING YOU,
MR. K-BISCUIT

MEANWHILE, A GROUP OF PEOPLE
ENTER THE MARKET…

LOOKING AROUND

THEY SEEM TO BE LOOKING
FOR SOMEONE…?

- Hello.
- Hello.

WHY'RE THEY WAITING FOR MR. CHA?

- Today's the day, huh?
- Yes.

- Here to take your order.
- Ah, yes.

THEY ARE
ONE OF THE MARKET'S SUPPLIERS

WHO'D JUST MADE A DELIVERY
A FEW DAYS AGO

We got a delivery from you guys
just a few days ago.

TODAY IS ORDER DAY
FOR NEXT WEEK'S STOCK

Did you have many customers?

Well, we were out
of a lot of the products.

- The eomuk too.
- Yes.

- It's pretty empty here.
- Yes.

Oh, yeah. Condiments. The condiments.

- People were looking for gochujang a lot.
- Yes.

We also need dried shredded squid,
and imitation crab for kimbap.

Dried seaweed for kimbap,
I think we're running low on that too.

Melon-flavored ice cream,
red bean-flavored ice cream,

and ice waffles.

- Thank you. Yes.
- Thank you!

AFTER PLACING THE ORDERS,

IT LOOKS LIKE
THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE LUNCH

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello.

We have daege ramyeon
and egg don katsu. It's a combo.

I'll have the combo.

- The combo?
- Yes.

I'll just have a daege ramyeon.

Sure, okay.

- Just daege ramyeon for me as well.
- Okay.

One combo, two ramyeons.

This store
has a fast inventory turnover rate.

Look at the customers lining up.

THEY MUST'VE WONDERED IF THE
CAST WOULD DO WELL FOR TEN DAYS

BOTH THE MARKET AND RESTAURANT

JUHWAN IS WATCHING
THE RAMYEON COOK AWAY

So, a minute left?

Okay.

HE ADDS THE EGG DON KATSU
TO THE FRYER

TO MATCH THE TIMING
OF THE RAMYEON

THE KITCHEN STAFF
ARE WORKING WELL TOO

- I'll bring the don katsu right away.
- Okay.

THE DAEGE RAMYEON IS SERVED FIRST

HE TAKES A SIP OF THE SOUP

It's so much better with the crab legs.

Oh, really?

SLURPING

THE OTHERS ENJOY THE NOODLES TOO

Please cut into the don katsu and enjoy.

IF YOU CUT INTO
THE FRESHLY FRIED DON KATSU…

There's an egg in there.

Look at the egg inside.

IT LOOKS MORE APPETIZING
WITH THE EGG

ONE BIG BITE

- It's egg don katsu.
- Egg don katsu.

Oh, wow.
We have our supplier bosses here today.

- We're the employees.
- Not bosses.

Boss!

- We're the employees.
- Not bosses.

- You're all bosses.
- We're employees.

Let's just say you are.

- There's no price tag on the bread.
- Bread? Okay.

EITHER WAY, MR. CHA HEADS OVER

THE BREAD THAT JUST CAME IN
DOESN'T HAVE A PRICE TAG

I rang up the bread.

And the kimchi.

HE FINISHES UP THE REST

And the rice crackers.

- That was the last thing.
- Okay.

TO PREVENT THIS
FROM HAPPENING AGAIN,

HE GETS PRICE TAG STAMPING
ON THE RECENTLY DELIVERED BREAD

BUT INBEE FINDS ANOTHER ONE
WITHOUT A PRICE TAG

Boss, how much is this?

- It's $7.50. Yeah.
- $7.50?

MR. CHA HAS MEMORIZED MOST
PRODUCT PRICES IN JUST A WEEK

Are these chopsticks taxed?

Yes, chopsticks are taxed.

HE CAN NOW ANSWER
WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING

HE'S PRETTY MUCH LOOKING LIKE

AN OFFICIAL WORKER HERE

Man, we just got some inventory.

MR. CHA RETURNS
AFTER RESTOCKING BREAD

You must know more than the owner.

Mr. Kim must be the very diligent type.

How does he work without taking…

- Boss, over here.
- …one day off?

I just got another invoice.

Delivery.

THE KOREAN MARKET BOSS VIBE'S

ALL ABOUT
NOT GETTING A SECOND'S REST

Oh, hello.

Yes.

IT'S MR. PARK,
THE MARKET'S VEGGIE SUPPLIER

Which vegetables did we get?

Carrots, napa cabbages.

- Okay.
- You can give me the payment later.

- Yes, all right.
- Okay.

VEGGIE DELIVERY IS COMPLETE

- Wow, it's so hectic.
- You're the busiest, huh?

You're the busiest, Mr. Cha.

How do you guys handle all of these?

You're amazing.

Most of you guys work like this, right?
You don't have time to rest?

Yes.

This is what the immigrant life is like.

Especially the Asians here
are particularly diligent.

When all the employees clock out, Mr. Kim
organizes the stock alone until 11:00 p.m.

I'm going to see the owner
for the first time later today.

I haven't even met him yet.

You haven't met him yet?

He left us with one letter.

He left a letter.

He wrote stuff like how to use
the register in the letter.

Yeah, so I've never met him.
I'll be seeing him today, on my last day.

MEETING MR. KIM TODAY

But I heard a lot about the owner

from the customers.

What impressed me the most was…

ALLOW ME TO FILL YOU IN…

…during the pandemic,

the government subsidized our businesses.

- Right. They did that in Korea, too.
- Yes.

Everyone received it from the government.

But Mr. Kim said he didn't need it
because his business was doing well.

Did this store do well
during the pandemic?

Well, what he was thinking was,
"If I don't take it, someone else can."

Someone more in need of it.

Meaning, he didn't want to deprive it
from anyone in a worse situation.

That's right.

I've known him for 23 years.

He donates half the profits
from his market.

Yes, I heard he makes a lot of donations.

He donates half his income.

He even pays for underprivileged students'
college tuition.

- Living a life like that makes him happy.
- He's a good person.

15 HOURS A DAY

HE REPEATS THE TOUGH SCHEDULE

BUT HE STILL GIVES HALF
OF HIS INCOME TO OTHERS

He's no ordinary man.

Right. He's amazing.

HE'S A CURIOUS MAN IN MANY WAYS…

He's a small giant.

- That's what I've always thought.
- He's truly amazing.

THOSE HE MET THROUGH WORK
CONSIDERS HIM A RESPECTABLE MAN

I didn't say things
I didn't need to say, did I?

No, it was good.

Thought I'd share his best quality.

GOOD THINGS MUST BE SHARED

Hello.

MEANWHILE, AT THE COUNTER…

- There's no kimbap?
- Thank you.

- Kimbap?
- We're making them right now.

OUT OF KIMBAP AT LUNCHTIME

- How many rolls? Three?
- Three.

Shall I go check?
Do we have any kimbap ready?

Two, two, two...

We have two, but...

What's going on, Kyungmin?

It'll be quick.

ONCE HE FINISHES THE SECOND ROLL
AND PASSES IT TO BOYOUNG…

Getting fresh kimbap.

…BOYOUNG QUICKLY WRAPS IT

I was gonna say, can I buy two of those?
Or...

Yeah we're making them,
so it's gonna be a little bit.

- Yeah.
- Okay, I'll come back.

How many...

Just two rolls.

- Two rolls? Maybe five minutes?
- That's okay.

- That's okay. I'll wait.
- You'll wait?

Yeah, thank you. Yeah, I'll wait.

We can do it!

We can do it. We can do it.

Positive thinking. That's great!

Oh, we can do it.

- No problem at all.
- We can do it.

People here are very patient.

If you'd like to eat delicious kimbap,

please wait a little.

You can't eat it without waiting.

That's kimbap.

THEY SPEED UP
AND ROLL THE KIMBAP

Waiting kimbap?

- Waiting...
- Okay.

Two for him, three for me,
and three for these guys.

THERE IS A LINE…

THE KIMBAP CORNER WON'T RUN OUT
OF CUSTOMERS UNTIL THE VERY END

Oh, it's okay. We can wait.

FOR THE WAITING CUSTOMERS,

THEY'RE WORKING EVEN FASTER NOW

Thank you.

- Thank you for waiting.
- Thank you.

NOW THAT SOME KIMBAP IS MADE…

Yay!

THE KIMBAP FAIRY COMES ALONG
WITH A LONG TRAIL OF CUSTOMERS

- Two.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.

AND FILLS UP THE KIMBAP BOX
FOR THE WAITING CUSTOMERS

And two.

- Thank you for your help.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

FEELING PLEASED

SHE HAPPILY RETURNS
TO THE KIMBAP CORNER…

Can I get in on the next batch?

- You need kimbap?
- Yep.

ANOTHER KIMBAP CUSTOMER

How many?

- Just two.
- Two? Okay.

TWO ROLLS WON'T TAKE TOO LONG

- Excuse me.
- Hi.

- Can I have one... Yes.
- Kimchi?

Yeah.

- Of course. Here. Thank you.
- Thank you.

Talking to the locals
is nothing to be afraid of.

You're full of confidence.

I'm not full of confidence.

I'm just like, "Whatever, man!"

SHE'S THE TYPE TO ADJUST
WHEREVER SHE IS…

- Thank you.
- Thank you for waiting.

- You have any more kimbap?
- Yeah, and one kimbap? Okay.

$5.38.

$20, okay.

Hi. How are you? How are you today?

- Spanish. Spanish.
- Spanish. Oh, yeah?

- Hola.
- Hola!

Hola. Is "hola" right?

How are you?

THE ADORABLE CUSTOMER'S SMILE
BRINGS THEM JOY

- One kimbap? Yeah.
- One kimbap.

Goodbye!

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Say, "annyeong."
- Goodbye.

Goodbye.

- She a fan. NCT.
- Fan? NCT?

- Johnny. NCT 127.
- NCT?

KYUNGHO DOESN'T KNOW NCT

- Taeyong.
- Oh, Taeyang?

From BIGBANG?

- Oh, Taeyeon?
- Taeyong.

Taeyeon? Girls' Generation?

Oh, yes.

There's a boy band called NCT.

- NCT?
- NCT.

- Mark. Mark Lee.
- Okay.

- Makgeolli?
- Mark Lee.

You like makgeolli?

Makgeolli is drunk... Drink.
Makgeolli is alcohol.

No. Mark Lee.

Mark Lee? Mark Lee!

FINALLY GOT THE NAME,
MARK LEE!

Yeah, so... I'm so sorry. I don't know.

Okay. Bye.

Bye.

NEXT TIME, MAKE SURE
YOU'RE CAUGHT UP ON NCT!

SHORTLY AFTER…

- Yeah, okay. Well, thank you.
- Thank you.

- Hi.
- Hi.

A CUSTOMER
IN A BRIGHT BLUE SHIRT ENTERS

SHE HAS A BIG SMILE
WITH HER HANDS CLASPED TOGETHER…

Then can you help me with this?

No, it's fine.

- Why?
- It's nothing.

SHE KEEPS CIRCLING
AROUND THE COUNTER

- Okay. Oh, okay.
- Sorry.

SHE'S ALL SMILES

CIRCLES AROUND

Then can you help me with this?

- No, it's fine.
- Why?

Should I do it?

Yes, we have to work hard until the end.

SHE PASSES BY KYUNGHO AND INBEE
AT THE COUNTER…

THEN HIDES BEHIND A WALL…?!

Oh, my, my.

Forty-six?

SHE LOOKS QUITE NERVOUS…

I wonder if I should try it.

WHO IS SHE WAITING FOR?

Nine dollars…

BOYOUNG SEES THE CUSTOMER
AND WALKS UP TO HER…

- I just wanted to say hi to Ms. Inbee.
- Hi.

- Oh, Inbee.
- Yeah.

- Oh, Inbee. Oh, okay.
- Yeah, I'm huge fan. I play golf.

So I'll wait here.

I just want to say
that I'm rooting for her.

Okay.

ACTUALLY, THIS CUSTOMER…

Thank you.

Do you know much about golf?

He's Park Inbee's best friend.

What?

- What?
- She will come here too.

- Whoa! When? When?
- It's true, it's true.

- When is she coming?
- Next week.

Next week.

I love her swing!

HER MEETING WITH INBEE
STARTS IN…

Okay, it's...

4, 3, 2 SECONDS

- Thank you.
- Now!

- She's a big fan and wants to say hi.
- I'm a huge fan of yours.

- Thank you.
- I'm so pleased to meet you.

Are you planning to come back
to play golf?

- I know you're busy with your baby.
- Yeah, I'm considering right now.

- Because I've been following you online.
- Yeah, really?

- Oh, yeah. Because...
- Okay, thank you so much.

I wish I could swing like you.

But I just can't.

- So pleased to meet you.
- Yeah, you too.

- Wish I could see you at the US Open.
- Uh-huh, yeah.

- I couldn't play this year, so yeah.
- I know, I know!

- So, you live here? Around here?
- Yes.

- Nice to meeting you as well.
- Yeah.

- Good luck with your baby.
- Okay.

Looking forward to seeing you.

- You have big job.
- Sure, yes.

- Thank you so much. Okay.
- All right. Thank you. Rooting for you.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye.

SHE LEAVES THE STORE
WITH A LIGHTER HEART

Hello. Yes.

ANOTHER
FAMILIAR CUSTOMER HAS COME

That's not it.

A REGULAR WHO VISITED
WITH HER HUSBAND IN EPISODE 3

How far along are you?

- I'm due in two weeks.
- Two weeks?

- Is it a boy or a girl...
- A girl.

I see.

It was nice seeing you so often.

But today is our last day.

- It's such a shame.
- I know.

- Here's my card.
- Yes.

Stay safe and be healthy.

Have you tried our sikhye?

No.

- Sikhye. Let me...
- Should I try it?

I'll give you a cup of it.

You have a nickname for the baby?

- Sweet Potato.
- Sweet Potato.

This is for Sweet Potato.

Thank you.

KYUNGHO'S LAST GIFT
FOR SWEET POTATO

I appreciate this.

- Please thank your husband for me.
- Sure.

I hope you give birth to a healthy baby.

- Yes, thank you.
- Of course.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

Goodbye, Sweet Potato.

Bye, Sweet Potato.

- "Bye, Sweet Potato"?
- It's the baby's nickname.

- Two weeks left... A girl.
- A boy?

Hope your childbirth goes well.

- Hope it goes well.
- Thank you. Heard you're going tomorrow.

Yes, take care.

- Yes, have a safe flight back.
- Yes, you take care.

Bye.

SWEET POTATO,
WE'LL SEE YOU IN TWO WEEKS!

HOPE THE BIRTH GOES WELL

MEANWHILE, AT THE RESTAURANT

- And I know you would never...
- Oh, yeah.

Dude, it's so interesting to see it.

THEY CAN'T STOP STARING
TO ONE SIDE…

AT THE END OF THEIR GAZE
LIES ONE PERSON…

The girl at the register
is Park Boyoung, I think.

I think she's an actress.

I don't know who she is,
but she's mad cute, though.

Inside, sweet, light pink.

IT IS BBOVELY…

How do you say
"you're really pretty" in Korean?

So I can tell her.

- No way. Are you serious?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

At least I think.

You got some in your teeth.
You got a little bit in your teeth.

- You better clean that before...
- Yeah, yeah.

- You better clean that before you say it.
- All right. Good look.

CRACKING UP

STILL THERE?

- It's gone.
- All right.

I'm gonna try to say it out, so...

CLEAN TEETH READY
NOW TIME TO PRACTICE

HARDCORE TRAINING
FOR HIS FRIEND'S CONFESSION

Okay?

So it's... neomu…

You said... Never mind.

…daweoyo, right? Is that it? I don't know.

Oh, my God. You cleared it.

Wow. You cleared it.

HE CLEARED HIS DISH
WHILE PRACTICING

- Did you enjoy the meal?
- Yes, we enjoyed it so much.

Thank you.

HE'S RECEIVED
MR. CHA'S POSITIVE ENERGY

SO LET'S PUT PRACTICE INTO ACTION

My friend practiced Korean.

He has something to tell you.

- Hello.
- Okay.

Goodness. Thank you.

BEGINNER KOREAN, MAJOR SUCCESS

That was so good.

How about me?

- I don't speak Korean...
- How about me?

Thank you.

LET US SPEAK PROPER KOREAN…

Are you okay?

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Bye.
- Bye, guys.

THE ADORABLE YOUNG MEN
THUS SAY GOODBYE

NOW THAT
THE FINAL CUSTOMERS HAVE LEFT…

Okay, lunch sales is…

Finish. Done.

Good work, everyone.

Oh, welcome.

- Put it there.
- Okay.

NAM GIHYEOB COMES WITH A BOX

- Last night...
- The food he talked about.

FOR HIS WIFE AND CO-WORKERS…

What is this?

LUNCH IS HERE

Our food is here.

- Is that it? Thai food?
- Yes.

HE PROMISED TO BUY LUNCH
FOR THE EMPLOYEES YESTERDAY

AFTER BRINGING LUNCH,
HE GOES TO HIS WIFE RIGHT AWAY

MR. ZO
SETS THE LUNCH TABLE RIGHT AWAY

MEANWHILE, THIS KIMBAP AGENT
REMAINS CLUELESS

SINGING HIS OWN LABOR SONG,
HE KEEPS PRODUCING KIMBAP

Yo!

Let's eat.

Gihyeob brought Thai food from next door.

I can just keep working on kimbap, right?

Well…

it's not like
there's a script or anything, right?

Let's go. Hurry up.

AS A SPECIAL AGENT SHOULD,

HE FINISHES WRAPPING
THE LAST ONE

Looks good.

You might like kimbap more.

LET'S EAT UP NOW

They look so good.

They look delicious.
It must be a famous place.

Guys, you can start eating.

Boyoung and Inbee need to go soon.

Eat up.

Oh, man. My goodness.

EVEN SITTING DOWN IS TIRING

He's already...

- Kyungmin.
- You seem tired already.

- You okay?
- I'm fine!

I… I AM OKAY…

Thank you for the food.

TAKES A BITE

This is good too.

Wow.

- This tastes like chicken.
- It is.

- It's chicken.
- It's good.

Tom yum?

- That's tom yum?
- Do you want?

How do you eat it?

- Scoop at it.
- Just eat.

It's an acquired taste,

- though some people love it.
- Just try it first.

- I'm not picky…
- It tastes like kimchijjigae.

WILL KYUNGHO LOVE IT
OR HATE IT…?

This is totally my style.

- Really?
- Yes.

- Some people can't eat this at first.
- Some really don't like it.

It's the taste I've been looking for.

You like it that much?

I was saying I would like to try
a stew that is tomato-based.

I didn't expect to find it here.

I really like it.

- But some people can't eat it.
- It's really good.

THE CASHIERS JOIN THEM
AFTER THE CUSTOMERS ARE GONE

My gosh.

- Is it good?
- Yes.

Oh! Yum.

- You like that, huh?
- I love it.

Wow, som tam is so fresh.

- It's fresh.
- This is called ttong tam?

- Som tam.
- What's it taste like?

Thai food usually uses a fish sauce base.

- So it's a bit fishy.
- But this one isn't fishy at all.

EVERYONE'S CAPTIVATED
BY THE FOOD

I want to take kimbap to Gihyeob.

- The ones Kyungmin made.
- Save some then.

I already set some aside.
I mean, I packed some already.

However much I think about it,

I'm pretty sure I know Mr. Kim's idea
of a perfectly-sized kimbap now.

- Thank you.
- Like, even the amount of rice.

Like those sushi masters,

they roughly know
just by grabbing up a handful.

They go like this and just know.

- "This much is this amount."
- You got it, huh?

Boss, can I try one of these?

Of course, go ahead.

- This is different.
- Of course, it's unique.

People kept buying this,
so I was craving it.

- Want some?
- I can tell what it tastes like.

A FAMILIAR TASTE FOR ALL KOREANS

- This brand of baked goods sell well.
- So well.

You mean, bread?
They sell out the day they're restocked.

- People here love bread.
- Last time, it sold out in a day.

- They miss Korean pastry.
- Is it good?

The people
who got us some bread this morning.

Mauricho's family wrote a letter
to everyone here and gave it to him.

A CUSTOMER DELIVERED THEM
A HANDWRITTEN LETTER

It says, "To Zo Insung."

EACH PAGE IS WRITTEN WITH CARE

- There's one there.
- One for me... Here, take them.

- Lim Juhwan.
- Yes.

- Park Boyoung.
- Yes.

"All I can say is wow."

THEY READ THE WORDS…

"You are…"

…THAT ARE WRITTEN FROM THE HEART

"Vincent," what is this?

BY READING THE LETTERS, THEY
REMINISCE THE TIME SPENT HERE

- Lim Juhwan.
- "…so happy."

Bosses, part-timer at your service!

Wow, she's experienced and reliable.

She's the bright one.

Oh, I forgot that Boyoung is like...

- You were our Son Heungmin.
- Yeah, multi-talented.

EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ONLY…

If you say it's your favorite!

…HER SECOND DAY

What's wrong?

A part-timer is here.

INBEE WAS WELCOMED
WITH OPEN ARMS

Nice to meet you.
Shall I start with 100 rolls?

WHO USED HER PRO COOKING SKILLS
TO INTRODUCE…

If I were to include
stir-fried kimchi here...

It looks delicious.

STIR-FRIED SPICY PORK

- Good? Not too spicy?
- So good.

She says it's very delicious.

- It's so good.
- Park Inbee actually made it.

BOYOUNG AND INBEE HAVE BEEN
OF TREMENDOUS HELP TO EVERYONE

- Good work, all!
- Good job!

Great job, guys.

All right, get ready.

- You two get ready to go.
- Okay.

You did great, you two.

Great work.

Wow, I can't believe
I'm sending people off on this show.

Can you file a police report
before you go?

- That there are five captives here.
- What do you mean?

- I'm gonna go.
- Okay.

- See you in Seoul.
- I'll get going.

- Bye, Inbee.
- Yes, bye.

We can't go far.

- We can't.
- We don't know the way.

AFTER SAYING THEIR GOODBYES

We don't know our way around.

Bye, girls!

- I wanna do that too, "Goodbye!"
- California almonds

BACK TO WORK…!

THEIR LAST DAY IS COMING TO AN
END AS THE SUN STARTS TO SET…

THE MARKET CLOSES
AT 6:00 P.M. TODAY

THERE'S ONLY
ONE HOUR LEFT OF SALES

Taehyun, is there any more sikhye?

Any more... Oh, no, no.

- We do have sikhye.

- Byungeun!
- Yes?

A.J. wants a cup of sikhye.

THE AFTERNOON IS PASSING BY
LIKE ANY OTHER DAY

- Eden, you want to do it again?
- Yes.

You wanna punch again?

THE TRAINING CONTINUES THIS
AFTERNOON LIKE ANY OTHER DAY

804

HIS SCORE CONTINUES TO IMPROVE

THE SOUND OF SOMEONE
STRUMMING THE GUITAR

IS COMING FROM SOMEWHERE

Hey, Kyungmin.
Are you all set up over there?

Why, need more kimbap?

No, you can't anymore.
You have to get preparing now.

ONE THING THAT IS DIFFERENT
ON THIS DAY AT THE MARKET…

IS THAT THERE IS A SINGER HERE…

And this... this singer.

- Oh, okay.
- Kim... Kimbap, yeah.

- I know.
- Thank you.

I think this will be our last batch.

AS KIMBAP CORNER COOKS
THEIR LAST RICE BATCH

This is the kind of rice for sushi.

That's right. This is it.

Using sushi vinegar.

This is my last kimbap for real.

Oh, no.

Oh, I'm suddenly feeling…

- I mean, suddenly...
- Hey, are you crying?

- No, no, no.
- Why?

He's sad.

- Not ready to party.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.

You wanna go home?

Yeah.

No, you will stay here.

Ah, no, no, no!

It's beautiful city, but...

- Okay
- Yeah.

HE CALMS HIMSELF DOWN
AND RESUMES CHECKOUT…

Whoo! Oh, wh...

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU~

- Okay, tap your card please.
- Okay.

- Okay, tap your card please.
- Okay.

Excuse me.

- Oh, what on earth?
- Did I make you cry?

Did I make you cry?

Did I do something bad?

Oh, yeah.

HE COMES OUTSIDE
PRETENDING TO GET SOME AIR…

That was random!

WIPES TEARS!

Hi.

HE'S GROWN ATTACHED
TO THE MARKET AND ITS CUSTOMERS

Sorry about the crying.

Wait, let's check your hair first.

Okay, okay.

You're ready for the cameras.

Good, this is messy enough.

Because all the girls in the neighborhood
are eyeing him up.

- Seriously?
- Who he meets.

What he did with whom.

- He must be popular.

There are so many observers!

ALL THIS TALK CALLS
FOR SOME SPICY SOUP…!

THE WARM DAEGE RAMYEON PREP!

MEANWHILE, THEY START TO GRAB
FOOD THAT THEY BROUGHT

TODAY, JUHWAN IS THE BUFFET CHEF

NOW THAT THE FOOD IS ALL READY…

EVERYONE, PAY ATTENTION

Standing on the streets
As the raindrops fall…

Wow!

When I feel your breath

Coming to life

Then I take out a clean paintbrush

- As if it's a secret
- Wow, how classy.

- And then I color…
- Famous singer.

- The street transparent
- My friend.

- Hong Kyungmin.
- "Hong Kyungmin."

Kyungmin. Yeah.

Inside the café where music is playing

I take a chocolate-colored paint

- I made it.
- Really?

- What?
- Really?

- With a special sauce.
- Wow.

Under the streetlight

Drawn with raindrops

BEEN A WHILE SINCE
THE WHOLE FAMILY ATE TOGETHER

- I color that with…
- It's delicious!

…Purple paint

Everybody!

If only all the people of the world

- Were as happy as the scenery
- Here, for you.

SERVING SIKHYE OBSESSIVELY

I FEEL GOOD

Greedy people

A GREAT SONG FILLS
THE SMALL RESTAURANT

Frowning people

I wish they could be happy

AND PAIRS PERFECTLY WELL
WITH THE WARM DAEGE RAMYEON

Looking picture perfectly bright

THE FIRST SONG ENDS
IN A LIVELY ATMOSPHERE

Today, to commemorate the last day,

I came all the way from Korea
to perform here today.

- Thank you.
- I'm Hong Kyungmin, the singer.

Well, this is the first time filming
Unexpected Business abroad.

I'd like to greet
the Japanese customers as well.

A TRILINGUAL GREETING

It's nice to meet you. I am Hong Kyungmin.

I am a famous singer from Korea.
Please enjoy.

AWESOME

Also, for our customers from the US…

I'm Korean singer. Yeah.

- Very popular.
- Very famous.

Yeah, yeah.

Twenty-three years ago,
so many people called me

Ricky Martin of Korea.

Yeah, yeah.

You gonna dance like Ricky Martin?

A little. Yeah, yeah.

Something like that.

Okay, I'll wait.

I'll do gestures and stuff.

SONG REQUESTS
ARE IMMEDIATELY ACCEPTED

DANCE, DANCE

I used to sing this a lot
when I was younger.

She's into superstitions

Black cats and voodoo dolls

I feel a premonition

That girl's gonna make me fall

Oh, your mother likes it!
She's enjoying it.

CALLING HER OUTFOR GEN X VIBES

She's into new sensations

New kicks in the candlelight

She's got a new addiction

For every day and night

She'll make you take your clothes off
And go dancing in the rain

She'll make you live her crazy life
But she'll take away your pain

Like a bullet to your brain

Come on

- …inside out!
- She's livin' la vida loca

She'll push and pull you down

Livin' la vida loca

Livin' la vida loca

Livin' la vida loca

Hey!

HIS CHARM WORKS IN THE US TOO

Thank you. Yeah.

Wow, it's been so long
since I've heard a Ricky Martin song.

RICKY MARTIN'S MUSIC HAS GOTTEN
THE QUIET MOTHER EXCITED AS WELL

Next... Next stage.

- Shakira, your turn.
- Wow!

SHAKIRA GETS PICKED!

- Wow!
- Okay.

Shakira! Shakira! Shakira!

- Shakira's song.
- Turn it up.

- Turn up the volume.
- The volume...

Turn it up, please.

SLIGHTLY NERVOUS

- What a day this has been
- Oh, my God!

- What a day this has been…
- Oh, my God!

- What a day this has been
- Wow.

What a rare mood I'm in

Why, it's almost like being in love

"ALMOST LIKE BEING IN LOVE"
BY FREDERICK LOEWE

There's a smile on my face

For the whole human race

Why, it's almost like being in love

Shakira.

All the music of life seems to be

Like a bell that is ringing for me

- Wow.
- And from the way that I feel

When that bell starts to peal

I could swear, I was falling

I could swear, I was falling

It's almost like being in love

She's a pro. You sure she's not a singer?

ENGROSSED…

From the way that I feel

When that bell starts to peal

It's almost like being in love

LOL

It's almost like being

In love

- Wow.
- Bravo! Brava!

LOOK AT THIS, LOL

Uncle.

My goodness, you're so good.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

A SHORT FAN MEET

We probably all looked like that.

Your mother must be good at singing.

- My grandmother is good too.
- Your grandmother too?

This is…

- We must hear from her, then.
- No, no.

CARE TO SING, MA'AM…?

Then I'll sing one for her.

For her grandmother?

What's your favorite old song?

Your favorite song.

Do you remember any Korean songs?

I usually like Na Hoona
and Lee Mija's music.

- Really?
- Yes.

Then shall I sing one by Na Hoona?

I like "Ripe Persimmon" too.

- Oh, "Ripe Persimmon"?
- Yes.

Oh, I sing that song every year.

"RIPE PERSIMMON"
MUSIC AND LYRICS BY: NA HOONA

Grandma's favorite song.

I think of you
When persimmons ripen

It reminds me of my mother

She nursed me in her arms
Rather than sing me a lullaby

She's crying right away.

It reminds me of my mother

When it snows, let's greet the snow

When it rains, let's get wet in the rain

For we may stumble in this rough world

For we may wallow in the pains of love

THE WORD "MOTHER"
IS MOVING HER TO TEARS…

I miss her When persimmons ripen

I miss my mother

HER DAUGHTER AND GRANDDAUGHTER
BOTH GET EMOTIONAL

She said I was the apple of her eye

It reminds me of my mother

Whom I wish to see

KYUNGMIN'S "RIPE PERSIMMON"
BRINGS MANY TEARS YET AGAIN

Thank you.

This song always makes people cry.

- Did someone cry?
- Yeah!

Man, why does this song
make people cry every year?

Everyone cried.

This always happens.

Hong Kyungmin!

Yes?

Thank you very much.

Did you always like this song?
"Ripe Persimmon"?

- There must be a story.
- Exactly.

My mother passed away four years ago.

- I see.
- She lived with us for 15 years.

- She passed away here?
- Yes.

- Great-grandma. That's right.
- Great-grandma.

So that's why.
You were suddenly reminded of her.

THIS SONG CONTAINS MEMORIES
OF THESE WOMEN OF 4 GENERATIONS

I thought she was your sister.

I didn't think she was your mother.

I thought, "Is that her older sister?"
But you said she was your mom.

And she also seemed too young
to be your grandma.

Who's her mom?

She's her mom. I didn't know.

- Shakira's mom?
- Yes, this is Shakira's mom.

What?

How... How old are you?

I'm 48 years old.

- Wow!
- No, no.

- Forty-seven.
- Forty-seven?

Born in '76? Wow.

Same age. Yeah.

- January?
- Yes.

February.

So I'm older than you.

Yeah.

- A nuna.
- Older than me.

- Nuna.
- Better call me nuna.

Nuna, have a drink.

NUNA, HAVE A SIKHYE

You look so young.

I'm so shocked.

MARINA IS FILLED
WITH LAUGHTER TONIGHT

Them coming to a neighborhood like this…

To the locals... How should I put it?

- It brings us excitement.
- You're right.

- Really.
- Yes.

- It's a very boring neighborhood.
- Yeah.

- You're so handsome.
- Thank you.

Happy wife, happy life.

And every day,
she watch so much Korean drama.

- Makes her happy.
- Yeah.

So they make her happy,
they make me happy.

Thank you.

Thank you.

HE JUST FEELS GRATEFUL

I love you.

Shakira, thank you so much.

- Shakira, wow, I had fun.

AFTER OUR GUEST SINGER'S
BRIEF INTERMISSION

WHAT KIND OF SONG
WILL HE SHOW US THIS TIME…?

"MY HOMETOWN FAR FAR AWAY"

BY NA HOONA,
SUNG BY HONG KYUNGMIN

Under the southern sky far far away

I like this song.

Lies my hometown that I miss

Where my beloved

Reminds me of the old days.

Parents and siblings

- When we rode subways in Korea…
- Right? Yes, that's right.

Wait for me

THIS EXPERIENCED GUEST SINGER
BRINGS THE NOSTALGIA

In this foreign country miles away

Who knew this would happen?

- In this little town?
- On this unfamiliar street

Seriously.

What would we have done without Kyungmin?

It wouldn't be the same.

- Without Kyungmin...
- It wouldn't be the same.

We wouldn't do this show.

- I mean, we can't.
- In my glass of alcohol

I mix in a drop of sorrow

Though I drink that

HAVING HOT RAMYEON WITH KIMCHI…

My heart is running to the sky

KOREANS FROM FARAWAY LANDS
GATHER FOR A WARM DINNER

Of my hometown

We have a very special guest here today.

I…

A SPECIAL GUEST…?

…said to Mr. Cha,

"I'm sure there will be a talented person
in the area."

Who could it be?

"Hurry and search the guest list."

And we found a very special person!

- The chosen one.
- Yes, we found a performer.

THE PERFORMER!

- A very special person.
- The chosen one.

We found a performer.

A FEATURED ARTIST

We'd like to invite the performer.

I'd like to invite her up.

PLEASE WELCOME
THE SPECIAL PERFORMER

- Thank you.
- No, no.

It's not you, sir.

We were talking the other day,
and she was a piano academy director.

- That's why I...
- Everyone in this area knows her.

So I asked her for a favor.

All our children learned from her too.

I've never done this before.

- Elder, you should sing.
- Oh, no.

HER HUSBAND IS SHY TOO…

- As a couple.
- Yeah, I mean...

We're now wrapping up season three
of Unexpected Business.

Although it's time to say farewell,

I just wanted to say
that it doesn't have to be a farewell.

Stage talk, you know how it is.

What singers do best is to say
whatever works for the next song.

One, two. One, two, three, four.

"FAREWELL THAT IS NOT FAREWELL"

BY LEE BEOMHAK,
SUNG BY HONG KYUNGMIN

SHE STARTS PLAYING CALMLY
TO KYUNGMIN'S TEMPO

HE CAN'T EVEN CLAP ALONG

As I watch

KYUNGMIN'S SONG BEGINS

You leave me behind

I still have A few things

Left to say

I didn't want to speak

A NIGHT FULL OF EMOTIONS…

Out of lingering regret

I didn't want to tell you

The words "I love you"

We spoke all night

And decided to part ways

Farewell that is not a farewell

- And this is how it goes
- Everyone!

My love, goodbye, goodbye

My heart always prays
For your happiness

Let these words ring true

Rather than the words "I love you"

My love, goodbye, goodbye

My heart always prays
For your happiness

When love picks up
The broken pieces of my heart

I will find you again

THE FIRST PERFORMANCE
ENDS SUCCESSFULLY

Very nice.

- Very nice.
- Good.

I think that was the best pronunciation

of "very nice" I've ever heard.

It was so buttery.

So buttery.

I want to make the next one special.

The locals and residents here
might know this already,

but for 30 years in this city,

she ran a piano academy
for Korean students.

Recently,
her last student went back to school,

so she closed her academy.

I'm sure she felt bittersweet

as she was closing her academy.

I think we need to cry.

- Do we have to cry?
- I feel like we do.

- Hold it in.
- That's why…

Then let's bawl all at once.

That's why she'll be playing
a commemorative solo.

Well, it's not a solo.

It's a solo piece
if you play the music alone.

We're going to listen to a solo.

And we shall prepare a solo drink.

And we shall prepare a solo drink.

NERVOUS…

Wait. I can't see.

"MY GRANDFATHER'S CLOCK"
PERFORMED BY KWAK EUNBAEK

"THIS IS THE PIECE
THAT MY LAST STUDENT PRACTICED

ON THE LAST LESSON
A FEW DAYS AGO"

WHEN SHE AND HER HUSBAND
WERE DATING

IMMIGRATED IN 1993

HER DREAM WAS TO BE A PIANIST

"BUT THERE WERE SO MANY GREAT
CHILDREN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD"

My goodness.

Very, very nice!

Nice, very.

It is very nice.

Elder, you're shedding
a lot of tears today.

What do you call this?
This feels like a retirement ceremony.

I'm so happy that I got to do one,
thanks to the show.

- Yes, really.
- I know.

This could've just faded
into one of my memories,

- but now, I can look back to it.
- I know.

I can look it up once in a while.

EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME…

- Hey, can you go ask? I'm curious.
- What is it?

Ask what?

If he is here for the first time.
Over there.

- Have you eaten?
- Yes, of course.

We're eating while we chat along.

Sir, you've been here before, right?

I think we met you before, but I can't...

- I met you here once
- Really?

- Yes.
- I see.

Wait, have you seen him before?

I don't remember.
We have so many customers.

We would have said hello
if we'd remembered you.

I didn't want to be impolite
and not say hello.

How could you remember all the customers?

We try.

You were busy when I came.

How has it been?

- It was fun. This place…
- Right?

The locals were super nice to us.

My English improved a lot.

I think I know who he is.

- This happened to us last time.
- Yeah.

BOSS DUO HAVE FIGURED IT OUT

We all made the kimbap.

For today, he told us…

Wait.

- Ask him if he's the owner.
- By any chance…

…are you the owner?

…are you the owner?

No, I own a video store.

- Oh, really?
- In Monterey.

I see. I'm sorry.

- I sell DVDs.
- I see.

OH… A VIDEO STORE…

Is he the owner?

I don't know.

Hey, smell his hands.

Check if it smells like sesame oil.

SNIFF

Do they smell like sesame oil?

Why would a video store
smell like sesame oil?

People don't really watch DVDs these days,
do they?

But we still do DVDs.

But your hand, it's calloused.

- What do you mean?
- Have you tried running a DVD store?

- I see.
- You barely do anything.

- Are you sure you're not the owner?
- I run a video store.

NO ONE BELIEVES HIM

Is he really not the owner?

- No.
- No?

- No.
- No?

He's not? I'm sorry.

I thought you were…

- The owner...
- Just call him right now.

GOOD IDEA

TAKES ACTION IMMEDIATELY

THE PHONE IS RINGING…

- People who work here...
- Everyone gets callouses.

- They all have callouses.
- In stages.

BOSS DUO APPROACHES HIM

My wife is going to scold me today.

- I'm sorry.
- I can't get caught being here.

Pardon me. Could you pick up your phone?

Your call may be forwarded to an automated
voice messaging system.

I guess you have a knack for...

I smell sesame oil.

Sesame oil…

At the video store…

Sesame oil in a video store?

…I use sesame oil.

IS THAT VIDEO STORE…

THIS ONE

OPEN CONCERT

The most difficult thing was
when someone asked me how much this is.

I gave to her for free.
But is this the price?

- No, the date.
- That's the date.

See? You are the owners.

- No, the date.
- That's the date.

See? You are the owners.

It's you!

It's you!

- You're the owner!
- Mr. Kim Myongho!

- Right?
- How do you know it's the date?

GOTCHA!

You got busted!

We all know it's the date.

- You're smart.
- Sorry.

THEY'RE ALL FEELING AWKWARD…

- Thank you for coming.
- Thank you for coming.

- Welcome, Mr. Kim.
- I was busy running the video store.

Bet you were busy running this store.

Am I the owner of this place now?

- Yes.
- Unexpectedly.

SHALOM!

THE REAL OWNER OF ASIAN MARKET

MR. KIM MYONGHO

HE'S THE MARKET'S LAST CUSTOMER

Thank you for coming.

You know, I'm glad you came today.

In the previous seasons,

only the owner would end up
with no memories to cherish

because they never visited.

But now that you are here, I'm glad.

- I mean, we came all the way to the US.
- You've cornered him.

I have a personal question.

On average,
how long does it take to make one roll?

It won't take long, right?

I make 100 rolls an hour.

100 rolls an hour? That's…

By yourself?

THAT'S A BIG NUMBER…

That means you make one
in less than a minute.

A customer timed how long
it takes for me to make a kimbap roll.

It took 15 seconds to make one.

- Fifteen seconds?
- Wow.

- Fifteen seconds?
- Wow.

It doesn't even take 15 seconds.

FACT CHECK

SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT…

He can even make them while talking.

He's a master.

JAW'S ON THE FLOOR…

It was really hard for us.

Because we took turns making them,

we had a few complaints about kimbap.

- We...
- Some were too thick, some were too thin.

Some were... That's why we...

It would be bad
if it tasted better than mine.

- Nobody said that.
- That's not possible.

It was a big pressure for us
because you gave out so much love

- in this neighborhood.
- I know.

What we were most concerned about

was making mistakes that would ruin
the reputation of this store.

That's what kept us on our toes.

All our customers are great.

Even if that were to happen,
they would come back.

They would understand.

That's possible
because you are generous to the customers.

He's right.
But there's something I heard earlier,

and I really want to ask you
when I saw you.

During the pandemic,

did the US government provide
a relief fund for businesses?

- Yes.
- Yes.

But...

But I hear you refused to receive...

He didn't take it.

- Did they really offer him $♪♪♪?
- Yes.

I was so shocked at the amount of money,
and I couldn't believe it.

I had a fight with him over it.

Well, the customer who told me said you
didn't fight, and made you look good.

OOPS…!

- But we did.
- But how did he persuade you?

- It was for those who were affected.
- Yes.

- It was for them.
- Exactly.

My business actually did well
during the pandemic.

- We did well.
- Yes.

If I don't take the money,
it would go to those who needed it.

- Gosh.
- Wow.

EASIER SAID THAN DONE

It was the right thing to do.

Gosh, this is…

I was so surprised.
I realized what a great man you are.

I heard that for the first time
during lunch today.

A lot of people say that,

"Because your husband's a good man,
good things like this happens to him."

- Well, this is…
- I agree.

- I guess it's good.
- It's just 2%.

Doing a show like this is
of much higher value to me.

That's why that man decided to stay.

- That's good news.
- Yes.

Will you stop saying such things?

I mean, it's such a beautiful place.

The locals here are so great.

But I miss my family.

- Of course.
- Yes.

- It was such hard work.
- Yeah.

So hard.

It's because we can't speak English.

That's why we get exhausted twice as fast.

Because we're always on edge.

When someone approaches us to talk
to us in English and makes eye contact…

We all scatter like cockroaches.

- Like roaches.
- If someone comes this way...

We go make kimbap.

Immediately on kimbap duty.

- "Hello."
- "Excuse me."

- They'd say, "Excuse me," but we'd...
- But,

there were many of you.

I spoke broken English,

- and I had to do it alone.
- It must've been so tough.

My goodness.

When you think this is your job,
then you learn to endure.

That's why our English-speaking
part-timers helped a lot.

Right. And the locals here…

There's Shakira
and others who gave us a hand.

- We received lots of help from others.
- They all helped out.

As you said in your letter,

- you said a lot of people would help us.
- Right.

It really was true.

We were running the store,
but the locals here ran it with us.

- That's how I started out.
- I see.

EVEN IF YOU START ALONE,
IF YOU HAVE HELP AROUND YOU,

YOU CAN SURVIVE ANYWHERE

All right.

Hong Kyungmin prepared
this final song for you.

Trying to make us cry?

- Oh, no, no, no!
- Let's go for a tearjerker.

It's not exactly a tearjerker,
but this song request comes

all the way from Korea across the ocean.

It's a song request
with a special story behind it.

- Wow.
- So, while we go about living our lives,

we try to be diligent and fierce,
trying to live life to its fullest.

But we all get tired once in a while.

Days on which we wish to be comforted.

Someone requested that I sing this song
on Unexpected Business,

hoping it'd provide great comfort.

That's why I decided to sing this song.
On behalf of that person's request.

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home
Makes me feel so lonely

It made me feel so lonely

That I parked my car in the parking lot

Since I too can cry once in a while

Scared that people will see

That they'd catch me in tears

Scared they'd judge me for it

So I put my head down low

Ah, so that's why

I know why people tint car windows

So, they can cry alone

Without having to care

That's right, that's it

I too can laugh and talk
I too can get angry

I too can act cute and make mistakes

I cry when I'm hurting inside

I too can cry

I too can cry

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home

Makes me feel so lonely

It made me feel so lonely

That I parked my car in the parking lot

Since I too can cry once in a while

That's right, that's it

I too can laugh and talk
I too can get angry

I too feel so nervous And scared

Even grown-ups can cry too

They can get hurt too

They can get hurt too, you know

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home

Riding my way back home

Makes me feel so lonely

It made me feel so lonely

That I parked my car in the parking lot

Since I too can cry once in a while

That's right

That's it

Thank you.

"I KNOW WHY CAR TINTING"
ORIGINAL SONG BY LUNCH

SUNG BY HONG KYUNGMIN

This song was…

It's a very relatable song, huh?

"Grown-ups can cry too,"
these lyrics are very touching.

So actually,

Taehyun's manager is called Changmin...

So, Changmin was the one
who asked Kyungmin to sing this song.

I hear he plays this if Taehyun gets drunk
and he's taking him home…

Well, I hear he listens to this
several times before he goes home.

So we'd received a request
that Kyungmin sing this song.

WHENEVER HE HAD IT ROUGH, HE'D
LISTENED TO THIS SONG ON REPEAT

Yes, so that's why Kyungmin
chose to sing this song today.

Taehyun is crying.

No wonder. I wondered
why he was singing this suddenly.

I was... I was just asked to do it,
I did not mean to make him cry.

- I had nothing to do with it.
- Meno...

Menopause.

So today...

All right, then.

DONE WITH THE SET LIST

- Oh, my God.
- We're done with all personal stories.

Didn't you cry too, ma'am?
Let's see who didn't cry.

So, how do we wrap this up?
Shall we sing something together?

Any song you want to hear, Mr. Kim?

Let's sing "With My Love."

"With My Love"? Great!

"With My Love" sounds good.

Great work, Unexpected Business!

Stay healthy, Mr. Kim.

I wish you good health
and happiness, dearest locals!

A CHEERFUL LAST SONG IS A GIVEN

Geez, I cry on every show I do these days.

Am I really on menopause?

- Man, I was sobbing in Mongolia too.
- I got all choked up when you did.

Doggone it.

On that green pasture

In that picturesque San Francisco

There, with my love

There I wish to live for a hundred years

When spring comes, we'll roll kimbap

When summer comes, we'll still roll kimbap

Come fall, we'll still roll kimbap

You go, man!

- And in winter, we'll still roll kimbap
- Go, man!

Tall buildings may boast about its height

This is what I'm talking about!

Living in vogue could be stylish
in its own way

But living in a shabby
Thatched-roof cottage with my love

I'd love that, I'd love that
As long as I'm with my love

As long as I get to live with you, my love

- On that green pasture
- On that green past...

- In that picturesque San Francisco
- In that picturesque San Francisco

There, with my love

There I wish to live for a hundred years

OH, YEAH

Thank you!

GOOD WORK~ AND TAKE CARE~

Come, come. Let's get outta here.

Goodness, it's over.

WHILE THEY WERE
EXCHANGING GOODBYES

ONE PERSON TOOK HIS TIME
LOOKING AROUND THE MARKET

YOUR MARKET
WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF

OF COURSE…

THEY COULDN'T BE THE PERFECT
REPLACEMENT FOR YOU…

- The market's so empty.
- What?

- It's so empty.
- Of course it is.

You're already organizing, sir?

THE REAL OWNER
IS ALREADY BACK TO WORK

If you rest, it becomes a habit.

THERE'S NO STOPPING HIM

- Please don't, sir.
- We did everything we could do.

Please get some rest.

But once you get into
the habit of resting,

- it won't get things done.
- You're right.

The workload will only double
the next day.

Better to do it
when it catches your attention.

Do it when you spot it.

It's best to get it done
before you're out of energy.

It must've been tough.

Have a seat, sir.

IT'S BEEN TEN DAYS
SINCE HE'S SAT ON THIS SPOT

THE SPOT BEHIND THE OLD COUNTER

I think you did a good job.

I see nothing to fault.

The shelves look organized enough.

I thought it'll have gotten all mixed up.

That's an indicator
of whether you did well or not.

- Oh, I see.
- I see.

How much money you've made
isn't what's important.

By observing
how well everything's been managed,

I can determine
whether you did well or not.

That part was really hard, though.

Especially, while working the counter...

We can't make mistakes here,
so I was most nervous about that.

EVERYONE TOOK TURNS
WORKING THE REGISTER

AT TIMES…

- We got $13,000.
- Oh, my God!

…MISTAKES HAD BEEN MADE

BUT EVERYONE WORKED HARD
TO AVOID SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE

- Okay!
- We did it!

I'm always reminded that
I can't do the job alone.

- You need others' support.
- Yeah.

I think I'm blessed with good people
among the employees.

Once they start working with me,

they work with me
for around ten, 15 years.

I owe a lot of all this to them.

- It's a blessing, truly.
- Yes.

THIS MARKET WAS BUILT UPON

THE JOINT EFFORT
OF MANY GOOD PEOPLE

BY SHARING THEIR DAILY HARDSHIPS
WITH EACH OTHER

THEY HAVE MANAGED TO MAINTAIN
THEIR DAILY LIVING

As long as I don't fall.

I can do it.

WE WERE ABLE TO LEARN A LOT
FROM EVERYONE HERE

It's done now.

Okay, we will leave
after we finish up here.

MEMORIES AND LESSONS ASIDE…

You should go home,
I hope you get some rest tomorrow.

We'll travel back safely tomorrow.

…IT'S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

- You're leaving tomorrow?
- Yes.

The locals were so kind to us.

- We had a great time.
- Thank you.

- Don't mention it.
- It's nothing.

Goodness, thank you. And great work.

- It was a great experience.
- Okay.

- Thank you for everything.
- My pleasure.

Go home safely and goodbye, sir!

We'll tidy everything up before we close.

- Yes, thank you.
- Take care.

Let's lock up first.

THE KOREAN MARKET IN THE US

THEY'VE BEEN RUNNING
FOR THE PAST TEN DAYS

Goodness.

Oh, my.

NOW, WE'RE OFFICIALLY CLOSED

- Good job, Insung.
- You too.

Let's not do anything rash next time.

- I know, right?
- I'm the problem.

I should just do nothing.

Goodness.

If we're talking tough,
it was real tough this time.

But still,

I did get a few positives out of this.

The biggest positive being…

I've forsaken my fear of non-Koreans,
I guess?

TRUE

- At least, I won't run away.
- That's right.

If they ask something,
I'd be like, "Uh-huh."

Even if I don't understand. Like, "Hmm?"

That's one thing I've overcome.

If you just sit like this…

We are really in the US, right?

UNNECESSARILY FEELING DEJECTED

That drone must have taken a lot of shots.

Shots panning from the sea
to all the way here.

We should check it out on TV,
if this really is the States.

COMING UP NEXT, HIGHLIGHT REELS

It's too big. This must be it. This is it.

Hold on.

Hold on. Where does it end?

Hello?

Can I order a kimbap?

K... Kimbap order?

Where are you?

Hello?

Sorry…

Oh, my God.

YOON KYUNGHO

Goodbye.

Would you like to order?

LIM JUHWAN

Your baby smiles a lot.

Oh, that's great.

Wow!
