Original subtitles

(Paik's Les Miserables)

Your grade is B.

(Announcement of their first grades)

(Some people are happy,)

(while others feel sad.)

(Team F managed to survive.)

Run.

(The next mission tests them.)

(Understanding of ingredients)

One, two.

(The basics of business, storytelling)

(From the experience they go through,)

(they should create a story!)

A grade-matched team mission.

(The real cooking mission begins.)

This time, for real, a team...

(Some of them will get eliminated.)

We will win for sure. We will get an A, no matter what.

(I think we will take 1st place to the end.)

(The 1st time people get eliminated! What awaits the 20 contenders?)

This time, it's real.

(This time, it's real.)

The team that gets the F grade in Creating a Meal From the Sea...

will get eliminated.

This time, for real,

(Elimination)

people get eliminated.

(An important mission that risks elimination)

(C: Kim Kook Heon, Choi Jeong Hyun, Yoo Hyo Deok, Lim Young Jun)

Of course, I don't want to get eliminated.

No one would want to get eliminated,

but I'll change with a desperate mind.

(F: Hong In Taek, Kim Jin Woo, Kim Hyun Joon, Kwon Hye Sung)

I will regret it a lot if it's over after we just started training.

I want to move just one step further.

(A: Yang Kyung Min, Son Woo Sung, Yoo Ji Min, Joo Hyun Wook)

I'm confident!

I will take first place for sure. Team A, we can do it!

(B: Choi Yoon Seong, Kim Dong Joon, Ha Jin Woo, Oh Gang Tae)

Since 4 people out of 20 would get eliminated,

I was awakened.

(D: Seong Hyun Woo, Jeon Dong Jin, Oh Chang Seok, Cho Do Yeon)

I never want to give up.

It doesn't go there. It goes here.

Feeling of responsibility was the biggest.

I thought I should not make...

this team get eliminated, at least.

I almost didn't get a sleep, to be honest.

(One team among them will get eliminated today.)

(The pressure is recognized by the judges...)

(as well as the contenders.)

(Tension fills the studio.)

(His mouth goes dry.)

Have you made a lot of preparations?

- Yes! - Yes!

You're given two hours for cooking.

You can ring the bell as soon as you finish cooking.

The team that finishes cooking faster than others...

might have an advantage.

He said we could have an advantage if we finished quickly.

I thought that was worth trying.

We should cook quickly.

Now, the mission...

(Each of them girds his loins.)

starts.

(Mission starts.)

(Mission 2: Team mission, Creating a Meal From the Sea)

All right. You can do it!

(Each team picks 2 kinds of fish they caught the previous day.)

(They create a meal from the sea that consists of 2 dishes.)

(Thinking they're owners of the restaurants,)

(they will sell the dishes to the judges...)

(who visit them as customers.)

(The team that gets the F grade will get eliminated.)

(Evaluation standard for the meal from the sea)

Still,

the evaluation of the taste won't be so important.

The explanation on the dishes will be the main standard.

How they create a story...

and things related to marketing will be our focus.

How do they make storytelling...

and how they lead it will be prioritized.

It's because storytelling is the basics of marketing.

You can consider it...

as the starting point where a customer gets interested.

If there's no good storytelling,

they should have a good understanding of ingredients.

If they have no understanding, they need to do research.

It's about whether they at least put an effort to study ingredients.

In a team battle, you should get immersed in the team.

You need to move with your team.

The relationship with those working with you matters so much.

One remark I give to a coworker...

might be a plus for the sales...

or become a minus, to some extent.

I will make a survival show that provides such an experience.

(Paik Jong Won Project)

(Chapter 2 of Advanced Class: Storytelling)

(Hidden in the storytelling mission...)

(are virtues needed for a businessperson.)

(Which team will absorb...)

(the virtues of a businessperson the fastest?)

(D: Seong Hyun Woo, Jeon Dong Jin, Oh Chang Seok, Cho Do Yeon)

Do Yeon, shall I wash the dishes?

Yes, wash them. We need to wash them once.

How do I use this?

(Oh Chang Seok doesn't know how to use the scale.)

Put the plate on it.

Shall I throw away the water here...

and rinse it with soju?

(Nodding)

Not there. There's a space here.

Say "Just a minute" to Chang Seok, and throw it away.

Just a minute. This one...

has a fishy smell.

(The members of Team D ask everything to Cho Do Yeon.)

- How much is done with mackerel? - Almost done.

You haven't skinned it yet?

- No, I haven't. - I have to do it, right?

Yes.

The others said they had rarely used a knife.

I thought that I shouldn't stay still for this.

I pressed them...

forcefully like, "You have to do this this way."

Then we'll cook this one.

(Discussing the menu on the day before the mission)

Have you seen the ingredients?

Do you have any menu in mind?

You know, paprika.

We'll add it...

to the broiled mackerel as a garnish.

(They decide on the first menu, broiled mackerel.)

I thought of braised anchovies with radish.

Braised anchovies with radish.

- It's braised anchovies, then. - Yes.

- I thought of broiled anchovies. - Broiled anchovies.

Do we have brewed vinegar there?

They'll buy it if we ask.

We... Wait.

Hyun Woo.

We need to talk about the menu.

Don't write down other things. We need to talk about it.

We have to decide on the menu.

That's useless anyway...

if what you're writing down is not going to be on the menu.

(Cho Do Yeon tightens the discipline of the team.)

I personally want to cook leaf wraps with anchovies and rice.

Can you cook leaf wraps with anchovies and rice.?

We need to think about it.

I can cook it with the recipe.

Are you sure?

I can't be sure, but I can do it.

You need to be sure.

Then I would have to follow you, regardless of my opinion.

- You have more experience. - No, wait.

We shouldn't argue about it.

I'm sorry, but you need to follow.

Even if you say, "I can do it,"

this isn't the situation we can say, "All right. Go ahead."

(The leader thinks leaf wraps are hard for him to cook.)

I first thought of an anchovy stew...

- Anchovy stew? - or leaf wraps.

I have confidence in cooking a stew.

Everyone can cook it, as I see.

Everyone has cooked kimchi stew, right?

- I haven't. - Kimchi stew is different.

Don't think this stew and kimchi stew are the same.

They're different.

(He pushes the team members who think it's easy.)

Seeing how he kept tying to add leaf wraps,

I got sick.

You need to choose and concentrate when you're not competent.

I insisted on braised anchovies.

They said braised anchovies and leaf wraps are the same anyway,

and they insisted on adding the wraps.

I told them it would require different processes,

but they didn't understand.

(Team D decided to cook leaf wraps with anchovies and rice.)

(There's a wall between Cho Do Yeon and the other 3 members.)

Let's do it this way.

- Look. - We can do it like this.

(Oh Chang Seok is looking at CEO Paik's recipe.)

Okay.

Let's just cook it the same way.

- Gochujang. - It's one and a half tablespoons.

All right. Next.

Three tablespoons of doenjang.

Doenjang, three.

(Braised anchovies for practice is completed.)

(It's cooked according to Paik Jong Won's recipe.)

Let's taste this.

(Tasting carefully)

- Let's try it. - Taste this.

(Cho Do Yeon is isolated.)

Let me try it.

It's pretty nice.

Would you like to try it?

The earlier one.

It tastes too salty.

- You will eat it with rice. - Still, it's too salty.

Shall I add more water?

Reduce the amount of doenjang. It's too salty.

What do you think?

- This is Paik Jong Won's recipe. - I see.

- I copied what it says. - I see.

But...

Yes, I thought the same way Do Yeon did.

I tasted it. It's okay except that it's salty.

Let's add only one spoon of doenjang.

But the recipe says three spoons.

Try putting one spoon.

It's the recipe he developed.

Right, he developed it.

But the amount can be different from what we're doing.

It tastes too salty for the way we're cooking it.

Everyone is saying it's salty.

I'll leave it here and cook it again.

Don't leave it here. Just cook it again.

It doesn't matter if you throw it away. It's salty.

- Let's compare the tastes. - Okay.

I got angry.

First, I tried to settle it,

but we didn't talk it over nicely.

(Oh Chang Seok)

I'll cook two and let them try.

Let's have them try it and decide.

No, it's salty.

All right. Let them try it, and then decide.

- It tastes salty. - You'll eat it with rice.

(None of them is backing down.)

Chang Seok.

I wouldn't say this strongly unless it's too much.

It's salty.

It's salty for your taste only.

It feels all right to me.

Then do it as you like.

I won't care about it.

You shouldn't say so.

I've been telling you it's salty. It really is.

I felt so upset.

I felt he was ignoring me.

You don't like this no matter what,

so you keep saying it won't work.

I never said I didn't like it.

You said it like I should throw it away.

I said I wouldn't care if you throw it away.

It tastes fine to me.

Then you should...

- decide it. - I said I'd cook two.

Go ahead, as you said.

(A stubborn employee versus a high-handed CEO)

(What's the conclusion of this teamwork?)

You can do this.

- How can I... - The anchovies.

(At 6am, after practicing for 8 hours)

We cooked all through the night.

(Glancing)

(After studying Cho Do Yeon's face,)

(he disappears.)

(Seong Hyun Woo feels very sleepy at this hour.)

Let's get up early tomorrow...

- and do it together. - No, it's okay.

I don't need to sleep. I mean it.

You can sleep as much as you want if you get eliminated tomorrow.

I don't want to get eliminated, seriously.

(The members are taken aback to hear what Cho Do Yeon says.)

I need to think hard.

(He wanders, not deciding where to go.)

- See you. - All right.

Are you going to stay here, Dong Jin?

Then I'll take a quick nap and come back.

- All right. - I'll take a little rest...

- because my back aches. - See you.

Let's go, Chang Seok.

(It's 6am, and Cho Do Yeon is left alone.)

Let's go and take some rest.

(What's the reason he's working so desperately?)

Although I'm the youngest of four siblings,

I've been the breadwinner for ten years.

Since I was little, my father...

was, you know...

First of all, he drank every day.

He had a severe alcoholism.

When he drank, it usually led to domestic violence.

(Victim of domestic violence)

It was so scary.

(It was so scary.)

I think my sister was a middle school student then.

My father beat her so severely.

I guess she felt her life was threatened.

Because of that, my older sisters ran away from home often.

After that, my family's fortune went downhill.

I've lived for my mother.

(The value he kept in his mind not to live like his father)

I think a sense of responsibility is most important.

Once I start a job,

I never behave ignoring my responsibility.

(It's the same at this moment.)

Shall I put all of these?

(That's how Cho Do Yeon is in charge of his team.)

We should add all the peppers. Add only the half of the onion.

- Look at me. - Aren't we adding sugar?

- Look at me. - Okay.

- Put only half of the onion here. - Half?

- And peppers? - Yes. Add all the peppers.

Okay.

- Add only half of this. - With Cheongyang peppers.

What about sugar?

(What result will Team D's teamwork bring?)

Team D looks a bit insecure.

About Team D, even at a glance,

it looks like Cho Do Yeon alone is leading the team.

When one person is taking the lead, it can be a good team.

But he will suffer burnout someday.

(Looking with a hawk eye)

Well, now,

the moment we started, in the case of Team D,

they put the pot on the stove without taking the label off.

(The pot has a label on it.)

(Team members have no idea about this.)

(The leader didn't get to check the pot.)

(A side effect of a one-man team)

(What fate awaits Team D?)

(C: Kim Kook Heon, Choi Jeong Hyun, Yoo Hyo Deok, Lim Young Jun)

We prepared braised silver pomfret for our first menu.

Second, we prepared seasoned raw greater amberjack.

You can look at them once again.

Come out and look, without touching them.

Take one among Spanish mackerel, silver pomfret, and mackerel.

Greater amberjack and silver pomfret look nice.

We only need to bring out nice tastes using them.

- Team C. - Let's just do it.

We'll take greater amberjack.

We'll take silver pomfret.

- Silver pomfret? - Yes.

I've been cooking Japanese food for eight years. I'm Lim Young Jun.

(Gangster Dad)

I never liked my father in my life.

I don't have any good memory of him.

My father was, as far as I know, a gangster.

I heard he was a muscle in the gang.

Although he rarely came home,

whenever he came, he drank,

beat my mother,

and took money from home.

(He experienced domestic violence by his father when he was little.)

Once, he took my mother out during the day.

He took her in a car, and she came back after a few hours.

Her whole face was bruised enough not to recognize her.

Her face was totally changed when she came back.

We were so stunned.

My arms and legs trembled.

I ran to my mother and said, "Mom, don't worry."

"I'll kill Dad."

Then my mother told me not to say such a thing.

She told me not to be someone like him.

She told me I shouldn't grow up to be the same person.

I came to Seoul as I got a job.

I decided to work at a restaurant first, and I'm still doing it.

It's been eight years.

From now on, although I feel sorry it's too late,

I want to put my everything...

to live happily with my mother.

The ultimate purpose is to be an owner.

Doing business is fun.

(Doing business is fun.)

First, what we were going to do about the menu.

Silver pomfret tastes the best when braised.

- Braised? - Yes, braised silver pomfret.

Then we're sure about braised silver pomfret.

Let's check the ingredients for braised silver pomfret.

We need soy sauce and cooking wine.

Refined rice wine is the best.

What are the ingredients you said? Soy sauce...

Cooking wine and refined rice wine.

If we are allowed to do it, sashimi will be the easiest way.

But the fish might have a strong earthy smell.

- Then we're ruined. - I see.

Especially with greater amberjack.

If we're going to cook a dish with it,

I think a seasoned dish will be the best option.

- Then we'd rather... - We can use crispy ingredients.

Getting rid of the odor will be the key.

I'll take care of the odor.

Seriously, being on the same team with Young Jun...

was a stroke of genius.

(Good vibes between the leader and team members)

(Preparing greater amberjack skillfully)

Japanese cuisine is my specialty,

and the team members trusted me...

and told me I could do as I wanted.

I am confident, and we will definitely win.

Team C actually consists of 3 people assisting 1 person.

It looks like a one-man business on a busy weekend...

with three helpers.

(The trust between the leader and team members are visible.)

- Jeong Hyun. - Yes.

I'll cut the fish and vegetables now.

I'll cut the ingredients, so make seasoning in advance.

- Let's mix it once you are done. - Okay.

(Choi Jeong Hyun is in charge of seasoning for greater amberjack.)

Can you check it over here?

(Yoo Hyo Deok is in charge of seasoning for silver pomfret.)

- Would this be enough? - Yes.

Just a bit more for this.

Shall we add a bit more?

Then put a lid on for a while.

(Braised silver pomfret is cooked as Lim Young Jun leads.)

I tasted it myself, but please check it.

It's good. It tastes just right.

I'll set it on a medium heat.

(Chef Kim Min Sung is here to check how things are going.)

Why are you braising silver pomfret in soy sauce?

Braising in soy sauce is harder than you think.

I have confidence in my braised dish with soy sauce.

- Do you? - Yes.

- Then we'll see. - Okay.

(What will Lim Young Jun's confidence result in?)

(F: Hong In Taek, Kim Jin Woo, Kim Hyun Joon, Kwon Hye Sung)

Our team prepared braised Japanese Spanish mackerel and aged kimchi...

and fried gizzard shad.

(The team centers around the most experienced member, Kwon Hye Sung.)

(He takes on tasks that require high-level skills.)

If you can spare time, can you handle this?

- Okay. - Keep doing this.

Just focus on caramelizing.

Turn it off now.

Slice one onion and give it to them.

I should've cut one more.

Do you need some more?

Oh, yes. Thanks.

Should I cut it like we did before?

Yes, exactly the same.

- I'll try my best. - Okay.

You're doing well. That's correct.

I see.

Should I also do the same...

Yes, like before.

The same way we saw before.

(Kim Jin Woo takes care of fried gizzard shad.)

- Where is mackerel? - I have it!

(Kim Hyun Joon takes care of Japanese Spanish mackerel.)

I'll give it to you soon.

"They're getting along now."

"They have become closer."

At that moment, I could feel they were becoming one team.

Only one night passed, but they changed a lot.

(David Lee)

(What happened to Team F last night?)

(While they were practicing for the upcoming competition...)

Team F left.

They went to sleep.

Did they already leave?

(Only Team F left the place?)

(Hong In Taek comes back to his room.)

He came!

It's tough.

I almost fell asleep.

Wait. This is...

(He closes the shutters.)

confidential.

It's very important.

(They have something to talk about in secret.)

Other teams were focused on cooking good-tasting food...

all night.

But for me,

instead of just practicing again and again,

gathering around and working on storytelling as a team...

was more important.

He always pointed out...

- the importance of storytelling. - Yes.

He just mentioned...

something very important.

What I'll explain is this.

"We created a virtual restaurant."

"And the name is A Set Meal From the South Sea."

And when you see the websites of Mr. Paik's restaurants,

each brand has its own storyline.

"It's our signature menu that reminds you..."

"of your mom's cooking."

- That line is so cool! - Nice.

(Will Team F's plan make a twist?)

(B: Choi Yoon Seong, Kim Dong Joon, Ha Jin Woo, Oh Gang Tae)

We prepared squid sundae...

and fried Japanese jack mackerel.

(Working hard)

I dressed Japanese jack mackerel.

I've never handled fish before.

It was too small and had bones.

So it was tough.

(Despite his lack of experience he voluntarily takes care of fish.)

(His cooking sound attracts all ears.)

(Ha Jin Woo is stir-frying veggies for squid sundae.)

(Kim Dong Joon is peeling onions.)

- You took onions from there? - Yes.

- I mean from the refrigerator? - Yes.

That's ours. Didn't you bring your own?

We didn't.

How could you use it without letting us know?

They're taking our onions!

We have small ones, right?

(Come to think of it...)

Have you finished making sauces?

These are all sliced, right?

(Oh Gang Tae is only talking to Choi Yoon Seong.)

Dong Jin, could you pass me a long chopstick?

- Here. - Thanks.

- Could you turn it down? This one. - Where?

Turn it down for now until I add other ingredients.

Dong Jin. Would you clean the sink over there?

We need to finish early.

(Ha Jin Woo is only talking to Kim Dong Joon.)

(Team B is way too quiet.)

(Glancing)

(Glancing)

(They're only doing what they are supposed to do.)

(A lack of communication and no teamwork)

I feel like they are paired by two.

- Where? - They...

split left and right.

When we see Team A, F, and C,

they look like a team.

But Team B is...

- They are divided. - split.

It looks like they're handling two different spots.

(It looks like they're handling two different spots.)

I agree with your opinion.

As if they fought before.

(What happened to the members of Team B?)

- I think... - First, each brings out...

an idea about our team's dishes.

- The chef told us before. - Let's make clear the order first.

What should we choose first, storyline or menu?

What do you guys think?

- We can make up whatever stories. - Yes.

- We should choose the menu first. - We need to set the right order.

As we had to have the mindset of businesspeople,

the questions they would have worried me.

I couldn't guess based on what point...

they would judge us.

If he says, "Why did you cook this way?"

"Honestly, among our signature menus,"

"we chose this and that."

- We should explain... - Wait.

I'm sorry to interrupt,

but that's not what matters.

Because we have it all on the Internet.

We can create stories anyway.

- We should now focus on... - I mean...

- dishes. - Jin Woo.

Jin Woo.

(Embarrassed)

I know your point is a dish. Look at this.

- We should focus on a dish first. - What I mean is...

(To Ha Jin Woo, choosing a dish is the most important thing.)

We're now in a meeting.

Of course, we should choose the menu.

All of us will hear each one's opinion.

We will then think about it and write it down.

- But you are now... - You know,

we don't have much time for this.

But will you be in charge no matter what happens to all of us?

That's not my intention.

That's why! Please, then listen, Jin Woo.

- It's nothing but an argument... - Okay.

between us.

(At dawn, they practice the menu they set.)

Then, we prepare the three of them and set it.

After that, let's have time for a discussion.

The three will do...

for one serving, right?

What about we place a few more pieces?

We don't spend a dime for this anyway.

That's something to worry about when we have our restaurants.

But here, there are so many ingredients.

We can choose the exact numbers.

Let's talk about it later.

(Ha Jin Woo doesn't look satisfied.)

How about six?

- Why? - Isn't it obvious?

Do you think that will do for one serving?

Let's go with six, then.

Let's serve as much as we can.

What is the point of saving?

Okay. Please make a plan for your dish first.

We'll come up with an idea for ours too.

(You? And us?)

Do you mean we don't need to care about your dish?

That's not what I meant!

That's why we're giving you feedback.

We're trying, but you're complaining...

- for your reasons! - Okay. That's enough.

(Choi Yoon Seong tries to mediate the two.)

Let's clean up first.

- We're being sensitive. - That's right.

What I mean is the more we serve, the better it looks.

Jin Woo, yes, I already agreed with you.

Yes, now I don't talk about it either!

- I mean... - Why are you being so touchy?

What do you mean? You keep repeating...

- the same thing. - I just want it to look...

- more abundant. - That's enough.

I also mentioned your point,

as we can't conclude anything from it!

- So later... - Honestly, we could find an answer.

We may try at least, can't we?

- Calm down. - Should we just split up?

- No. - Should we just end it all?

- Guys. - Shall we?

It's a team mission.

- I know. - That's why I'm talking to you.

- It's a team mission, but... - We are all...

But you are now so emotional...

Calm down, please.

- Stop, please. - Why not use our chances?

That's enough!

Stop.

(They stopped arguing,)

(but they're still uncomfortable with each other.)

We didn't fight, technically.

We just had an argument...

to make this stage better.

I'm thinking the worst.

(The two's argument will affect the team's spirit?)

Forget it. Do whatever you want.

(The two never talk to each other.)

(A: Yang Kyung Min, Son Woo Sung, Yoo Ji Min, Joo Hyun Wook)

Don't need to rush.

Each does one's share.

Kyung Min and I...

took shrimp in yuzu cream.

Hyun Wook took the basic work...

for Chinese food.

Ji Min took the preparations for the fish.

(Team A chose red gurnard, which is unfamiliar to many.)

Let's have a storyline first.

Then, let's plan what we need...

- for our dishes one by one. - I got it.

"We four imagined opening a restaurant..."

"in Namhae."

"So we chose our dishes based on fish that are easy..."

"to get there."

"Red gurnard are caught in areas like Mokpo, Yeosu, and Namhae."

But the fish...

Those who are familiar with the fish...

- know that it tastes good. - Right.

They have spinach as a specialty here.

I think it would be okay if we braised it with spinach.

- Yes. Braise it. - I think that'll be good.

- It has a green color as well. - Yes.

- I have my vote on braising. - Me too.

- What about you, Hyun Wook? - Me too. Braising.

You have your vote on braising.

(Joo Hyun Wook is cooking.)

(Yoo Ji Min is assisting.)

(Clean)

(And...)

(Yoo Ji Min focuses on backing up the team.)

(Is this the birth of a reliable kitchen assistant?)

(Checking this side)

(Checking that side)

(Look over there.)

If you look at Ji Min, he looks around as he's working.

He looks like he is playing the supporting role.

And he is doing this and that.

But was the work divided by plan?

Or was it divided by force?

Right. That could be the case.

We wouldn't know about that.

(What is the truth behind the work divide in Team A?)

(Yoo Ji Min's supporting role)

(Did a problem occur with hygiene?)

That's okay.

(He's on it right away.)

- I'm sorry. - It's all right.

I always think that hygiene is the basis of business.

The division of roles is great.

You should change it. It's all over your hand.

- Yes? - Use a new one.

It trickles down from here.

It trickles.

(Based on everyone's tendencies,)

(Team A has achieved optimal division of work.)

(Cooking the red gurnard is progressing smoothly.)

(But...)

(Yang Kyung Min seems to have a problem.)

(Yang Kyung Min, with 3 months of experience, is in charge of frying.)

(Frying is difficult for a novice cook.)

The starch batter doesn’t stick well.

(Everyone's busy doing their work.)

- Starch batter is not easy to fry. - Yes.

He is forcing...

to coat it with starch that settled down.

(He is worried about Yang Kyung Min who is struggling.)

It was a difficult process to coat the shrimp with the batter.

Some weren't coated at all.

And there were some that were coated too much...

and came out thick.

If they tell me to create a story,

I think I can do it somehow.

But if they tell me to cook well...

(Not sure)

Then...

(Is this right?)

I think it is a bit difficult.

(Yang Kyung Min had a heavy burden of cooking.)

(Unlike the team members who are good at cooking...)

Because I don’t know how to do anything,

I thought I'd become a burden.

(Am I becoming a burden?)

(Yang Kyung Min just puts down the net.)

(You should put something underneath it.)

You should put something underneath it.

(Surprised)

Don't just leave it like this. Put something under it.

Yes.

This is oil. Isn't it slippery?

Don't you have a tray?

(Yoo Ji Min brings one just in time.)

Yes. Like this.

(The handle is towards the cook.)

Hold it up. Okay. Good.

I'm worried you're going to hurt yourself.

- Look. Here's the handle, right? - Yes.

Now you can work closer.

It's much easier to work. Didn't it bother you here?

(Cooking details that a novice could easily miss out on)

- Didn't it bother you? - It did.

Did it?

It did.

Use your brain.

Yes.

I gave you a high score before.

Yes.

I hope you don't disappoint me.

Yes, sir.

I won't disappoint you.

Do you understand?

(He got an A grade with the attitude of a good businessperson,)

(but will it be possible for him to overcome the lack of skills...)

(that comes from a short career?)

(D Grade)

- Mr. Cho Do Yeon. - Yes?

Are these the leftovers?

Did you put the leftovers here?

What is this?

This is the mackerel.

(The mackerel that was prepared for cooking)

- What? - This is the mackerel.

(Confused)

(They are both confused.)

- Wasn't this food waste? - No, it isn't.

- I rinsed it with water just now. - What?

Who prepared the fish?

(It definitely has the looks to mislead.)

Tell me. Who prepared it?

(It was Jeon Dong Jin that prepared it.)

Did you prepare this?

Yes. I did it.

I'm really sorry, but I thought it was food waste.

I'm sorry.

No, you don't have to be. But you have to serve this.

Yes, that is correct.

The ingredient you prepared looked like food waste.

(Jeon Dong Jin has a short cooking career.)

I found many results...

when I searched for “mackerel preparation” on YouTube.

So I practiced by searching...

various ways of cleaning out the intestines and such...

the best I could.

I thought this would be good enough.

And I thought of this as my model piece.

But I had a mental breakdown at that moment.

I think we have to do this all over whether we like it or not.

Doing it again is not a problem.

But this is how I prepared all of them. What do we do?

Right.

- I'll try preparing one again. - Okay.

(He tries preparing it again.)

(He is full of worries.)

It wasn't a problem doing it again.

(He brought the mackerel that he prepared again.)

It's slightly mushy.

(Two judges arrived just in time.)

There's a roundworm.

(The two chefs found a roundworm.)

- See? There is a roundworm. - Yes.

It's alive and moving.

This is the Anisakis.

I'll prepare it again.

This is what makes people sick.

The tail side usually doesn't have Anisakis.

But the reason why it's here...

is that you brought the blade that was used from up here.

You need to study more about the ingredients.

- Yes, sir. - You need to handle it well.

- All right? - Yes.

- We need to do it again. - I'll do it again.

If you have enough mackerels, do it again.

- Yes. - Yes.

Honestly speaking, that was the worst.

I can prepare 10 or 100 mackerels again.

But with the skills I had,

the problem continued to occur...

even if I did it again.

(He paid careful attention.)

I think I prepared over ten mackerels.

- Gosh. - I think we should do it again.

Even this one?

Doing again isn't a problem. But what am I doing wrong?

This didn't work and it was getting too late.

So I ended up...

doing everything myself.

(The entire team gathered due to the mackerel situation.)

This is driving me crazy.

(They hold their breath and focus their attention on Cho Do Yeon.)

(Will it be okay this time?)

This isn't bad, is it?

The color is more pinkish.

- There's no Anisakis. - What is the difference, really?

(The team leader is doing all the work on Team D.)

(Will it be okay like this?)

(One of these teams will be eliminated today.)

The reason we gave you two hours...

means that we will wait up to two hours.

It doesn't mean you have to cook for two hours.

I think we should speed up a bit.

(Speeding up)

The bell is here.

(Team C Grade rings the bell first.)

It's only been 50 minutes and Team C is already done.

(We can't lose.)

(Team A Grade also completed their cooking.)

Team A has also finished.

(A competition on speed for the 3rd place)

(B Grade comes in 3rd place.)

Ring the bell.

(D Grade comes in 4th place.)

All right. Team B.

They are done with cooking.

We are men.

(Team F Grade becomes anxious.)

I'm done. Ring it.

All right. Team F has finished as well.

Everyone, well done.

(The cooking of Creating a Meal From the Sea is completed.)

(C: 49 minutes, A: 51 minutes, B: 1 hour 18 minutes,)

(D: 1 hour 21 minutes, F: 1 hour 25 minutes)

(The order of evaluation)

Then the last team to finish cooking,

Team F, can bring their dishes first.

Here.

To look like we're running a business,

we prepared a signboard and a menu board.

We prepared a menu as well.

It looks nice.

We could use it as a signboard.

(Team F prepared a lot for the storytelling.)

We should take this.

Let's take it.

(They burst into laughter.)

(That's amazing.)

Be careful.

- Quickly take it. - That's cute.

(The reason why everyone laughed)

(He broke the signboard too.)

(They fail...)

(to hold back their laughter.)

(They're trying to revive the broken signboard.)

(Ma Dong Seok helps them forget about being eliminated.)

(They managed to get to the judges.)

(A Set Meal From the South Sea)

Please explain if you need to do so.

Okay.

The first dish of A Set Meal From the South Sea is...

braised Japanese Spanish mackerel and aged kimchi.

Our braised Japanese Spanish mackerel and aged kimchi...

was made with the Japanese Spanish mackerel from the South Sea...

and kimchi that was made by an expert.

We made braised Japanese Spanish mackerel and aged kimchi...

that tastes like our mothers' dish.

(Braised Japanese Spanish mackerel and aged kimchi)

What do you mean?

(He freezes because of the unexpected response.)

Storytelling should be natural.

Didn't I explain this while eating noodles?

- You did. - You did.

- Right? - Yes.

(CEO Paik explained about the storytelling.)

Find a way to help them understand your dish without overwhelming them.

That is what you should start thinking about.

The signboard of A Set Meal From the South Sea is very good.

It helps people understand that you serve food from the South Sea.

That was really nice.

(The signboard is a good idea.)

You have a misconception.

Storytelling doesn't need to be excessive...

and you don't need to add lies.

It should make the listeners get emotionally engaged...

and increase their appetite.

Expert, mother's recipe.

Those were overly used.

That's a story that just passes by.

We should explain after letting them taste first.

Explaining the dish isn't the focus.

It's how you serve the customers.

We should do it like this.

(The later teams modify their strategy at the last minute.)

"Here's your meal."

"Do you have any questions?" Something like this.

It tastes better when you wrap it with the perilla leaves.

Wouldn't that be enough?

Go on.

(What's the storytelling behind the fried gizzard shad?)

The fried gizzard shad...

is tastier than most places. Try some.

Thank you.

(It's tastier than most places.)

(It's a simple story. What would be the effect?)

Is there a restaurant that makes fried gizzard shad?

No.

It's my first time hearing the dish called fried gizzard shad.

Gizzard shad...

is a fish with many tiny bones.

This makes us think you lack understanding of the ingredients.

Let's first eat them. They're food.

We'll talk as we eat.

(It received criticisms before they even tasted the food.)

(What would be the evaluation of the fried gizzard shad?)

(CEO Paik found something.)

I just...

(What is on the fried gizzard shad?)

- Can you see this well? - Yes.

What do you see?

I see bones.

Understanding the ingredients is very important.

(It's difficult to fry and eat fish with many small bones.)

The biggest mistake is this.

You could've picked an ingredient without knowing much about it.

But after you choose the ingredients, you should...

do a lot of research on them.

(They wouldn't have made the dish if they had researched more.)

He looked a bit disappointed.

Well done.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(Team F got a disappointing evaluation.)

This is why being the first isn't good.

(This is why being the first isn't good.)

We can do better next time.

We may not have a next time.

The later teams can change what they prepared.

I don't think it was cooked well because we were in a rush.

I hope it will be okay.

What do we do if it's undercooked?

Team D.

(Team D will be evaluated next.)

Please come forward with the prepared food.

(Their footsteps seem heavy.)

(They approach the judges with nervous hearts.)

Here's your meal.

Here's your meal. I'm sorry it came out late.

It's okay.

This dish...

is called I'm Mackerel from the South Sea.

(Team D's first dish is I'm Mackerel from the South Sea.)

- And... - What?

It's called I'm Mackerel from the South Sea.

I'm Mackerel from the South Sea?

- Yes. - I'm Mackerel.

I'm Mackerel?

(It's a witty name using mackerel, the main ingredient.)

- I'm Mackerel? - And this dish...

is leaf wraps with anchovies and rice,

a modified Paik Jong Won recipe.

(Leaf wraps with anchovies and rice, a modified Paik Jong Won recipe)

Do you have any questions or anything you need?

You can't just use that name.

I'm sorry.

(I'm sorry.)

(Team D's set menu consists of grilled mackerel...)

(and leaf wraps with anchovies and rice.)

Is that all? Are there no other explanations?

I'll answer any questions you may have.

(What?)

You will make it very simple.

Whose idea was the leaf wraps with anchovies and rice?

It was mine and his.

We made it together.

Did you leave this stuck on purpose?

(He freezes.)

(They have nothing to say.)

(Team D didn't remove the sticker.)

It was served with the sticker on the pot.

How do you think you'd feel?

Bad.

- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.

This is the most...

Honestly, if it comes out like this,

I could think...

you brought a pot that wasn't cleaned.

- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.

(They made a basic mistake.)

- Seong Hyun Woo. - Yes.

What is this?

(Swiss chard)

It...

said it was assorted vegetables.

I don't know what that is.

- You all don't know? - Endive.

- Endive? - Well...

Fine.

(They were all wrong.)

What's this?

I don't know.

I'll familiarize myself and tell you next time.

(Team D doesn't know the names of the vegetables on the menu.)

Goodness.

What's wrong with this one?

The tip is like this and it's yellowish.

Let's say you go to have leaf wraps...

but the edges are dirty like this.

Right?

How would you feel?

Also, it's already...

(Water drops from the vegetables.)

(They find another basic mistake.)

This will only lead to failure.

(They can't make any excuses.)

Storytelling without basic knowledge is a scam.

This place should be shut down.

(This restaurant should be shut down!)

But I should still eat it.

(CEO Paik tastes the food.)

I'll try the grilled mackerel first.

(He tastes the grilled mackerel first.)

Did you put powder on it? How did you grill it?

I added a bit of frying powder.

Frying powder? Why did you put that?

I mixed frying powder with curry powder.

- Curry powder? - Yes.

I wanted to get rid of the fishy smell.

(He tries it.)

(The chefs taste it too.)

(Some even spit it out.)

I saw the chef spit out the mackerel...

after eating it.

It felt horrible.

I felt very embarrassed.

(He prepared it all night but it only left an embarrassment.)

- Is it us? - Yes.

We're doomed.

"It took a bit longer because we made it by hand."

"I'm sorry." I'll say that.

I think we can leave out the "made it by hand" part.

Why? It was handmade.

- Don't say that. - Don't say that.

That's an excuse.

It's not an excuse.

You can just fry and serve the ready-made products.

I don't think that's right.

I'll say that.

We have to get a variety of feedback.

Don't stick to your opinions.

(Team B has conflicting opinions before the evaluation.)

Next. Team B.

(What is Team B's storytelling?)

It took a bit longer because we made it by hand. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry it's late.

(Ha Jin Woo said the words he wanted to say.)

That's a minus point.

Will you explain your dishes?

Yes. You can go first.

As for the squid sundae...

(Gangwon-do's local food made by stuffing squid tubes)

(Team B's first dish: Squid sundae)

It's a traditional food of North Korea.

It's sundae that is made with vegetables and squid...

with a light flavor.

All right. And?

(He has nothing more to say.)

(Choi Yoon Seong quickly interferes.)

This is fried Japanese jack mackerel in front of you.

(Japanese jack mackerel with crispy batter)

(It's a Japanese fried dish.)

(Team B's second dish: Fried Japanese jack mackerel)

This fried dish goes well...

with tartar sauce that we made from scratch.

Also, please enjoy...

the cabbage by pouring some yuzu dressing over it.

Enjoy your food.

(Enjoy your food.)

Is that all?

(Is that all?)

Is that all?

(Cold silence hangs in the room.)

(No one can respond.)

If I may...

explain a little more,

I'll tell you about the squid sundae.

In Hamgyong Province in North Korea,

there's a traditional sundae called abai sundae.

While displaced people from the north were living in Sokcho,

they made this by using squid instead of pork intestines.

Where were the displaced people living when they made this sundae?

- They were living in Sokcho. - In Sokcho?

- Yes. - I see.

Then is this squid from Sokcho?

- From the East Sea... - It's from the South Sea.

(Two contenders give different answers.)

We went to work in the South Sea early in the morning.

We brought it from there.

Based on what I know, it's mostly caught in the East Sea.

The squid is from the East Sea in front of Sokcho.

(The result of not discussing beforehand)

Either way,

we can come up with the story.

(The result of lackadaisical preparation for the storytelling)

Where is this squid from?

In Korea, squids are caught the most in the Yellow Sea.

As the current changed, they're mostly caught in the Yellow Sea.

- Really? - More than 70 percent.

- Can you find it on the Internet? - Yes, right away.

I see.

(It shows that they didn't even look it up.)

- It's easy to look up. - Then is it from the Yellow Sea?

(Is the squid from the Yellow Sea?)

It's from the South Sea.

- The South Sea? - Yes.

Do squids get caught in the South Sea?

These days, they are caught...

in the East Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the South Sea.

As your customer, I'm just curious.

Your voice keeps getting smaller.

(In a cold sweat)

Why did you make so much?

(Even at a glance, the amount is huge.)

Cost-effectiveness is key at our restaurant.

We prepared a generous amount for our customers...

to enjoy.

Why did you make so much?

(After bombarding them with questions,)

(CEO Paik and the chefs finally taste the food.)

For this much fried Japanese jack mackerel,

what would be your price?

- We thought... - You mentioned cost-effectiveness.

- about 16 dollars for 2 people. - No, that's not it.

(No, that's not it.)

We thought 23 dollars.

The restaurant owners don't agree with each other.

(Team B members keep disagreeing.)

We kept disagreeing with one another.

(Choi Yoon Seong)

(And the judges are hard to read.)

(What does the future hold for Team B Grade?)

Next up is Team A. Please bring out your dishes.

(For some reason, Team A looks relaxed.)

(Paik's Les Miserables)

We have a story and a theme,

so we'll be able to explain with confidence.

- Two. - Two, three.

- Welcome, - Welcome,

- we're Hot-Blooded Namhae. - we're Hot-Blooded Namhae.

"Hot-Blooded Namhae?" Why hot-blooded?

We're four hot-blooded young men...

who opened a restaurant together in Namhae.

I see.

That's why we're called Hot-Blooded Namhae.

I didn't see the signboard on my way in.

We only opened recently,

so we don't have a signboard yet.

(CEO Paik's realistic acting as a customer)

(Two dishes by Hot-Blooded Namhae)

We used two of Namhae's specialties,

spinach and yuzu.

We have braised red gurnard with spinach.

(Team A's first dish: Braised red gurnard with spinach)

And shrimp in yuzu cream.

(Team A's second dish, shrimp in yuzu cream)

Is yuzu one of Namhae's specialties?

Yes, Namhae's specialties are fatsia shoots, kiwi,

spinach, and yuzu.

- Really? - Hairtail and flying fish.

I didn't know that yuzu grew in Namhae.

That's a good thing to explain.

(CEO Paik's compliment on Team A's storytelling)

Red gurnard?

Many people don't know about red gurnard.

In coastal areas of Korea, northern Japan,

Mokpo, and Yeosu, it's not well-known...

but still known as delicious fish.

Due to its light and clean taste,

it's either steamed...

or cooked in stews.

Assuming that we're running our business in Namhae,

we thought about Namhae's specialties...

that could go with the fish.

We made braised red gurnard with spinach.

(His intuitive storytelling makes the menu interesting.)

(He's good.)

- Is it braised red gurnard? - Yes.

(A braised red gurnard dish)

Since it's a braised dish,

I expected it to be in a red sauce made with chili peppers.

Did you make it like this on purpose?

We made it like a Chinese dish.

(A new attempt with Chinese food style)

Is that so?

Let's try it.

(CEO Paik and the chefs taste it.)

It's a fish dish, but there's pork in it.

Right.

(How does it taste?)

(The moment of evaluation makes them nervous.)

Is this yuzu cream sauce?

Yes, sir.

We added yuzu cream and lemon zest at the end.

It tastes refreshing.

(Yuzu cream with a refreshing flavor of lemon zest)

(Lemon zest mixed with the yuzu sauce)

You fried the head, too.

Rostrums have been removed, so you can eat them whole.

(Fried heads with a friendly explanation)

Really?

(A positive vibe is maintained.)

(Chef Yoon Nam No also tastes it.)

You fried the head, too.

(Is there a problem to the shrimp in yuzu cream?)

(Chef Kim Min Sung makes a serious face.)

(Walking on eggshells)

Whose idea was it to add yuzu?

We added yuzu to offset the heaviness of the cream.

Without making it too sweet and to add a sweet and sour taste,

we decided to add lemon zest.

We tested it several times before making the decision.

You said that you didn't want to make it too sweet,

but it's sweet.

(The unexpected evaluation makes their faces fall.)

It's very heavy.

You added yuzu and lemon zest to offset the heavy taste,

but why did you use powdered starch as the frying mix?

- Number four, Yang Kyung Min. - Yes, sir.

He's probably the least experienced in cooking.

Why did you leave frying to him when it's the hardest?

(Did they fail to distribute the work properly?)

(Gosh, it's hard to coat it.)

The starch batter doesn’t stick well.

(He had a hard time with the powdered starch mix.)

How long have you been cooking?

It's been two months.

(It's been two months.)

Frying is usually done by cooks with experience.

Powdered starch mix always sinks,

so it's hard to control the concentration.

I wanted to distribute...

the work evenly.

We gave Kyung Min our trust and let him do it.

(Yang Kyung Min became a part that Team A lacks.)

Well done.

(Evaluation of Team A is over.)

(Feeling apologetic to his teammates who gave him their trust)

Excuse me. It was freshly caught this morning.

Seasoned in...

This is seasoned greater amberjack...

As it was caught this morning, it'll help you recharge.

We can't explain which part of the body will be recharged.

Let's just say that it's delicious.

Silver pomfret is good for your eyes.

We can include that comment.

"Silver pomfret is good for your eyes."

Caught in the South Sea...

Let's bring up feeling recharged.

Sure.

As we were last,

we got a chance to tell our story.

(Will they be able...)

(to use it to their advantage?)

Next is the last team.

Please bring your dishes.

(The last Team C goes up to the judges.)

(Seasoned raw greater amberjack mixed with crunchy vegetables)

(Braised silver pomfret cooked in soy sauce)

(Seasoned raw greater amberjack and braised silver pomfret)

I definitely think that we'll make it.

Excuse me.

It's freshly caught this morning and seasoned with vinegar.

This is seasoned raw great amberjack.

And...

as it was caught this morning, it'll help you recharge.

This is braised silver pomfret. Please enjoy your food.

What did you say this was?

Great amberjack...

No, it's seasoned raw greater amberjack.

- Greater amberjack. - Greater amberjack.

(Greater amberjack)

He said great amberjack, so I thought it was a new type.

(He said the wrong name.)

(It's greater amberjack, not great amberjack.)

(I'm doomed.)

(Holding back his laughter)

My mind went blank.

I got cramps and a tingling sensation in my hands.

I just thought, "I'm doomed."

Are you done explaining?

Where is your restaurant located?

(Flustered)

(They have nothing to say.)

Where is your restaurant?

(They can't even answer a simple question.)

I kept my mouth shut.

I was afraid to say something weird.

- We're in Yesan. - Yesan?

Yes.

(Choi Jeong Hyun couldn't answer until the end.)

The silver pomfret looks quite small.

We caught it in the South Sea yesterday.

We caught something smaller than we expected.

Do such small silver pomfrets exist?

These are called ginko leaf silver pomfret.

These aren't used in braised dishes.

- Aren't they eaten raw? - Yes.

They get seasoned easily, so they turn salty...

when they're small.

(Team C picked the wrong cooking method.)

When are silver pomfrets in season?

I believe it's until February.

From when?

Was it from December?

Pardon?

Was it December?

Who researched when silver pomfrets are in season?

(There's no one.)

We only looked up the effects of silver pomfrets.

- Effects? - Yes.

Why didn't you look up when they're in season?

(Team C didn't even look up basic information.)

What is this called?

(Did they study greater amberjack differently?)

It's greater amberjack.

Is greater amberjack different from Japanese amberjack?

(What's the difference between greater and Japanese amberjacks?)

Japanese amberjack that's 2m long...

is called greater amberjack.

Hold on. If it's 2m, it is taller than us.

Less than 2m.

- Pardon? - Less than 2m.

- Less than 2m? - Yes.

You say that greater amberjack is less than 2m,

but it can be as long as 3m.

Compared to Japanese amberjack,

greater amberjack is much bigger.

(Team C's knowledge gets devastated after two questions.)

You should know more about your ingredients.

- Okay, sir. - Okay, sir.

To explain and cook, you should know more about it.

The silver pomfret looks cute.

(Braised silver pomfret looks small and simple.)

It looks salty.

(Nervous)

(They're worried about the braised silver pomfret.)

(Will it taste okay?)

(CEO Paik's meaningful look on his face)

(In the end, Chef Kim Min Sung spits out the braised silver pomfret.)

(The judges look for water.)

Your braised silver pomfret is made with Japanese-style soy sauce.

- Yes, sir. - Japanese-style soy sauce is...

very difficult to use well when seasoning things.

When I asked Lim Young Jun a moment ago,

- he said that he was confident. - Right.

I can say it with confidence that it's salty.

I know that the fish is small.

I felt like I pushed...

my teammates off of a cliff.

It was very hard on me.

When it comes to starting a business,

here's what's more important than your sloppy cooking skills...

or learning how to cook from watching someone.

It's knowing...

everything that you sell...

at your restaurant.

Even if you don't know how to season things well,

and you are not a good cook,

you should know how to cook it.

If you aren't prepared, how will you run a restaurant?

If that isn't prepared,

you have no right to complain about your failed business.

These days, with one cell phone,

it's like having a library in your pocket.

Did they make that effort?

Did they even think about the ingredients?

Doing research on the new dish I'm selling today.

Studying the ingredients in the new dish.

There's no end to studying.

I still study 2 to 3 hours every day.

You worked hard on the mission today.

The result will be announced in a few minutes.

Well done.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(The mission confirmed that they still have a long way to go.)

(Paik's Les Miserables)

Every mission...

makes you wonder,

"Is this possible for beginners?"

In the end, there is always...

a hidden intention behind it.

We should find...

what that hidden intention is.

(With the setting sun, the moment of result approaches.)

(The result of Creating a Meal From the Sea Mission is announced.)

Now, the result of the grade-matched team mission,

Creating a Meal From the Sea...

will be announced.

It's a survival show, right?

One of the teams has to be eliminated today.

(One of the teams will be eliminated.)

I will announce the result of today's mission.

Team A received...

(What's the grade for Team A's performance?)

an A grade.

(Team A's result, A grade)

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(Team A maintained their A grade.)

(All the contenders congratulate them.)

Team A is A for a reason.

Team A prepared well according to the theme...

of the mission.

(Team A was the best in preparing for the storytelling.)

From Team A,

I got the model answer that I wanted.

They did enough research on the ingredients.

It wasn't because they were knowledgeable.

I could tell that...

they did research to prepare themselves.

(However, Yang Kyung Min is looking down.)

Number four, Yang Kyung Min.

(Yang Kyung Min became the team's weakness.)

What if we get a bad grade because of me?

(He feels bad that he's the team's weakness.)

Even if I wasn't there...

I feel like...

the team would have done well without me.

Even if...

Even if someone else had taken my place,

our team would have...

received an A grade.

(The team would run well without me.)

(He feels a greater sense of shame as he was a professional athlete.)

I should work harder.

(Creating a Meal From the Sea)

(Existing grade: A, Final grade: A)

Team B received...

(Next up is Team B.)

(What will be Team B's fate?)

They had a falling-out.

(It was obvious that Team B had a falling-out.)

Team B received...

(What's the result for Team B?)

a C grade.

(Team B's result, C grade)

(They went 1 level down from B to C.)

It was clear...

that the team had split.

(The team's discord during practice...)

(had a serious effect on Team B.)

Compared to the remaining teams,

their story about...

squid sundae wasn't bad.

He was so confident when explaining the menu.

I thought that he was brazen and confident.

(Creating a Meal From the Sea)

(Existing grade: B, Final grade: C)

Now that Team B is graded C,

which team will take their place...

and become the new Team B?

(Who will be the new Team B?)

We will make it no matter what.

(Team C was the first to finish cooking.)

I hope that we won't get eliminated.

The signboard of A Set Meal From the South Sea is very good.

(Team F received compliments on their signboard idea.)

Please.

Here's your order.

(I'm Mackerel from the South Sea.)

(Team D prepared a witty name for the dish.)

The new Team B...

will be...

Team F.

(It's Team F.)

Team F.

(Team F moved up 3 levels.)

(Due to their hard work so far, they get overwhelmed with emotions.)

(A result they earned without giving up until the end)

(Hot tears fall as they worked passionately.)

We were quite worried about Team F,

but we could tell that you did research on your dishes.

All of us gave you a high score...

on your teamwork.

(Team F's performance...)

(on the onion-cutting mission was poor.)

(Being the head of the family was what they had in common.)

I should pour my everything into it.

(Feeling like they're on the same boat)

That's a nice command.

(They became one and made the unexpected happen.)

(Let me know whenever you need something.)

(Can I help you with anything?)

They were the only team who brought a signboard.

Having a name is basic when running a restaurant.

I knew that they'd move up fast when given the opportunity.

They soared.

I'd like to vote for the revolt of people at the bottom.

(The revolt of the bottom moved the chefs' hearts.)

(Existing grade: F, Final grade: B)

(Giving a round of applause to Team F that worked hard)

(Good news doesn't last for long.)

(The moment of fate returns.)

Unfortunately,

Team C...

and Team D.

You're candidates for Team F that will be eliminated today.

Both teams will come to the front.

(Team C and D stand before the judges.)

(Team C...)

(and Team D)

(Which one will get eliminated?)

(Nervous)

(With sloppy storytelling that wasn't well prepared,)

(Team C said wrong information on the ingredient.)

(They showed the worst teamwork with conflicts within the team.)

I'm very sorry, but...

(Team D showed a lack of prepping skills.)

All right.

I will announce...

Team F that will be eliminated today.

I felt like I was going to cry, so I kept my eyes closed.

It was very difficult.

Team F...

that will be eliminated today.

(Paik Jong Won)

Unfortunately,

it's Team D.

(Team D's result, F grade)

(Team C's result, D grade)

As Team D became Team F,

the entire team will be eliminated today.

We picked Team D to be eliminated because...

your preparation was the most inadequate.

(Their lack of preparation)

Most of the team members...

lacked knowledge of your dishes.

Unfortunately,

we thought that Team D was...

the least prepared for the mission today.

That's why Team D will be eliminated.

Team D, please leave the studio.

(Eliminated Team D leaves the studio.)

(They leave the studio with heavy hearts.)

(As Team F was at the risk of getting eliminated,)

(they understand how miserable they must feel.)

- Good job. - Good job.

(The tension melts.)

- I'm sorry. - It's okay.

(They leave as they apologize to each other.)

- I should've been more careful. - It's okay.

(Gosh, well done.)

- Well done. - Everyone did well.

It was a good experience.

This experience was priceless.

(They try to comfort each other with positive words.)

A positive mind.

(They leave dressed the same as they entered.)

(It's hard to describe how they feel as they leave.)

It felt miserable, and...

(It felt miserable, and...)

I felt terrible.

I made a big decision to appear on TV,

and it ended quickly.

It felt like I didn't finish something.

It was disappointing.

Anyway, I got eliminated so fast.

If I had done a few more things properly,

we wouldn't have gotten an F grade.

I feel regretful about that.

It was a bummer.

I didn't expect myself to get eliminated so fast.

(The 4 of them leave while feeling regretful.)

(At the same time in Studio A)

What's the point if we're the only ones sincere?

It's possible that they couldn't show their skills or capacities...

during the team competition.

The show isn't just about entertainment.

(1 hour later at an outside office)

(The 4 have gathered before going home.)

Hey.

You're all packed.

Yes.

- How do you feel? - I feel miserable.

Do you agree...

that the four of you didn't get along today?

There was no communication, and you had a falling-out.

You were just working hard on your own,

but that didn't make you any better.

In the world, you have to communicate with others.

You have to listen to them.

Sometimes, you have to give in to them.

(Things that they must have learned from the last team mission)

I told the staff that I didn't agree with them.

I begged them.

The staff and I compromised.

I'm trying my best...

to give you one more chance.

However...

However,

I don't know if it will be 1 or 2.

(The chance won't be given to everyone.)

I'll give you a chance personally.

I don't think...

I don't think...

this is the right thing for me to do.

I don't want to compete against those...

who trusted me and followed my lead.

I'm sorry.

I will leave it...

to the four of you to discuss.

It's out of my hands.

Okay.

(CEO Paik gives them a chance and leaves.)

Thank you.

I'm not doing it.

(Cho Do Yeon is about to leave without regrets.)

- Wait. - I feel responsible for it.

- No, this isn't right. - Wait.

- We should discuss. - Seriously.

I have a sense of responsibility.

- Do it for us. - Who do you think you are?

(Who do you think you are?)

- Didn't you want to do it? - No, I'm fine.

I did the best I could.

My decision is final.

This is it.

I'm leaving.

(The discussion continues.)

(What does the future hold for Cho Do Yeon?)

(I definitely feel a sense of responsibility.)

(Cho Do Yeon refuses to participate in the F grade mission.)

(Who do you think you are?)

(Team F contenders react violently.)

(Will he leave Studio 100 like this?)

(Given to Jeon Dong Jin who came to see Chef Lim Tae Hoon)

(An unbelievable amount of dishes)

(In front of eagle-eyed Chef Lim Tae Hoon)

(Washing and wiping)

(Why are there so many customers?)

(Oh Chang Seok finishes picking his menu.)

(The sour taste is stronger.)

(Toppings for ramyeon)

(Endless bombarding with questions)

(Will we get to see him change?)

(Did you practice?)

(I didn't practice that much.)

(Chef Yoon Nam No's mental education on Seong Hyun Woo)

(They're still clumsy,)

(but their basic knowledge is increasing.)

(Didn't I go over it again?)

(Make them the same size.)

(If you're going to make it easy for yourself, go home.)

(F grade at the bottom)

(Will they complete their mission?)

(The F grade mission begins in earnest.)

The F grade mission.

(Which contender will survive?)
