I think the season has changed.

(The final journey on
'3 Meals A Day Light')

(Mount Jiri)

(Once they walk up
the green stairs)

(The house is located
high up there)

This is amazing.

(This place is cozy as there are
mountains around them)

(When Chef Cha starts
to make kimchi)

(Haejin from the Equipment Team
starts cooking too)

(With precise calculations
and detailed simulation)

(Pushing it to one side)

(Water gushing out)

Isn't this so convenient?

Only the original will get
that angle.

You need someone from
the headquarters.

Why did you soak that in vinegar?

(The reason you need someone
from headquarters)

What should I do?

But this...

(He quickly tries
his pickled salad)

I'm hungry.

(Chef Cha's cooking show
continues)

(Sweet jjajang that was left
to simmer until it becomes thick)

(Chef Cha cooks this food that
they usually have at restaurants)

(Mount Jiri's must-have menu,
black pork belly)

(Grill meat until golden brown
with grilled ripe kimchi)

Yum.

This tastes like the one
we have at Chinese restaurants.

(After feeling amazed,
he takes a bite)

(The meal where they were taken
by the food is over)

(They wrap up their day
by planning for tomorrow)

(Magnificent sun of Mount Jiri
has begun to rise)

(Refreshing morning air with a
strong touch from Mother Nature)

residents of the mountain forest)

(Their second day in
Mouth Jiri has begun)

(Haejin who is a morning person
is already busy)

(He starts his day
with familiar clothes)

(Good morning)

(He does simple stretching to
warm up before running)

(He fills his stomach with apples
that are in season before running)

(The path that goes downhill
from home is as long as 1km)

(He has begun his journey
to find a path to walk at)

(One fruit tree has gotten
Haejin's attention)

Look at this.

It's an apple tree.

It's beautiful.

It's a good morning.

(Today's course is a path
that runs by the stream)

(After running down
this road for some time)

(He arrives at a bridge that
crosses clear water)

(Haejin begins his day with
refreshing energy)

My goodness.

Wonderful.

It's perfect to run now
as the weather is better.

Woah.

The air is amazing.

(He wraps up his running by
lying down on the bridge)

(Seungwon is awake)

Did you run for 5km as usual?

Today, I ran for 6.7km.

(Haejin is back out after changing
out of his wet running clothes)

(He washes his running clothes
right away)

(He covers the clothes in
this familiar green soap)

(He turns it around
and covers it in soap)

(Washing by hand lets you wash
your clothes til you're satisfied)

(Laundry is now part
of his morning routine)

(He is done washing after
squeezing his clothes out)

Is there a place for me
to hang my clothes?

(There's no place to hang clothes
at this yard)

(After looking around the yard)

(He takes a cord)

(And a nipper as well)

(He goes towards the trees)

(The trees are located perfect
for him to hang his clothes at)

(He ties the rope to be taut
between these two trees)

(The natural dryer is ready)

(Today, they will head out early
to go to the 5-day market)

(They are ready to go to town)

You're done running?

- What?
- You ran?

Of course.

You're so determined.

Are we going to the market now?

Yes, we should.

Let's have tasty food there.

(They plan to have
a simple breakfast there too)

We're going out again.

You look like a genius today.

I have to be dandy.

We're going to get
our groceries, anyway.

- Is this a good place to run?
- It's amazing.

It's even better as
the weather is cooler now.

Yes, it's not bad
to go running now.

We can find noodles
at the market.

(They are craving food
from the market)

They serve the noodles
in an anchovy broth

with minced seasoning sauce
for us to scoop.

That is tasty and refreshing.

This is just wonderful.

(After driving between
the green paddy fields)

We're almost there.

(They have arrived
at the 5-day market)

- This is the place?
- Traditional market.

(Traditional 5-day market that
is frequented by local residents)

(Fresh ingredients that are found

on our way back.

(They have 2 things to buy
before leaving the market)

Look at all those
elastic bands they're selling.

(There are always fun things
to see at the market)

We can find that everywhere.

(They also see the must-have item
back on Chuja Island)

Wait.

We need to buy these later.

- Yellow corbina.
- We need them?

We should grill them.

(They look around while deciding
what they need to buy)

Why don't I see any places
selling noodles?

(They want to eat first)

Wouldn't it be perfect if we find
a place to eat noodles?

We can just slurp them in.

That won't be filling for long
and is perfect as lunch.

(It's been a long time since they
chose to have the same dish)

The sesame leaves look good.

Do you want to buy some pegs?

Let's buy one here.

(They will buy pegs for
Haejin to hang his laundry)

- This looks good.
- Let's buy this.

Put that in my bag.

(He puts it in the bag
that he is carrying)

(He bought the yellow corbina
that they saw earlier)

We'll have five of those.

(He bought five fish considering
the guest who is coming too)

That's for $30? Okay.

We will grill them.

- Have a nice day.
- Goodbye.

Shall we have barley rice instead?

Barley rice?

That sounds good.

Yes, let's eat that.

(They follow the arrow
as they look around)

(They found the barley rice
restaurant with a long history)

(He takes various vegetables
and the last is seasoned radish)

(Perfect meal that comes with
Haejin's favorite crunchy chili)

(The filling breakfast is ready)

- Come here.
- Let's eat.

Let's eat this.

(After mixing the rice with
one spoon of gangdoenjang)

(He takes one big mouthful)

Yum.

Isn't it good?
I can tell that this is good.

The side dishes are seasoned well.

Even the stew is delicious.
Try this.

(Haejin's bibimbap that he added
lots of gochujang to)

Yum.

This is tasty. It's delicious.

(They surprisingly found
a delicious restaurant)

You should add sesame oil
and mix them well.

Yes, please give us some.

It's on your table.

(Pouring savory sesame oil)

This is tasty.

(He decides to get more
before he finishes his food)

This is the original barley rice.

(Crunchy beansprouts)

(And seasoned julienned radish)

- The stew is tasty too.
- I told you so.

(They focus on barley rice
in silence)

This is very tasty.

This is wonderful.

(The savory doenjang jjigae
is a gourmet dish)

You should have sungnyung.
Scorched rice!

Yes, please give us some.

Thank you.

(They always have sungnyung
as their dessert)

We always eat scorched rice
in the morning.

We might not cook rice but
always have scorched rice.

This combination is familiar.

(Their favorite breakfast,
scorched rice and doenjang jjigae)

This is tasty.

(They had a satisfying meal at
a restaurant they just found)

That was a good meal.

(Now, it's time to go
to the snack place)

Hello.

(They visit the twisted doughnut
place that they saw earlier)

Do you have twisted doughnuts?

(Haejin buys a lot)

Yes, we need to buy that much
to share.

(He is generous enough to buy
for the staff too)

(They buy one small bag
of puffed rice)

We bought a lot.

That was great.
We had an amazing meal.

We made the right decision.

Did she say that she made
her own soybean paste?

The doenjang was amazing.

(The 3 Meals House is empty)

(Someone is approaching
from far away)

(This unfamiliar person)

(takes a turn at the corner
and heads to the empty house)

(This man who just entered
the yard)

Ha...

Gosh.

(He seems very nervous)

(He walks cautiously like
a cat at this unfamiliar place)

(He places his things
on the porch)

(After finding the courage to
take a couple of steps)

(He leans on the pillar)

(This person who doesn't know
what to do as he's nervous)

(Fourth guest on this show,
Uhm Taegoo)

(Eyes full of charisma)

(and a deep voice)

(An actor who leaves us
with a strong impression)

(Uhm Taegoo, the soldier
on 'A Taxi Driver')

(However)

Wait. What should I do?

(In reality)

(He is widely known
to be an introvert)

(From the first time we met him)

(Giggling)

(He forces himself to laugh
to hide his anxiety)

You'll see a beautiful view
when you sit at the house.

Take this time to rest well.

(Producer Na says that
to calm Taegoo down)

Thank you.

(Staring far)

(Looks like those words
were not effective)

(He is relying on both of
his knees)

(as he gets taken away)

Why? What is on your mind?

It's just that you keep on
filming me...

This is our job.
We can't stop doing this.

You have to accept that.

(An actor who feels shy
around cameras)

I don't know what I should do.

Shall I look around?

No.

(He decided to take a tour
around the house)

(He checks out the area
behind the house too)

(And the storeroom too)

What should I talk about?
I'm in trouble.

(His concern gets deeper)

(He tries
to look inside the house)

(Peeking)

I see.

(He closes the doors again
after saying one phrase)

(He goes back to his comfort zone
after looking around)

(Only the sound of grass bugs
fills this area)

- When they arrive,
- Okay.

you can just stay seated.

Who do you think will be
more excited to welcome you?

Oh...

(Gulping)

Firstly, I haven't met Haejin
in a very long time.

I think

he will be quite surprised.

You look pale. You are okay,

aren't you?

I...

Are you 100%?

I...Well...I'm fine.

(His hands tell us that
he is not okay at all)

I was pretending to be fine

and I think I'm better.

Yes.

(While the secret guest
pretends to be fine)

(the residents have arrived
at the village)

(They have no idea
what is happening right now)

(They are happy to be home
after enjoying good food)

Wait. What is that? I think...

(Peeking)

I think someone is here.

(He can't open the door)

I think someone is here.
He is over there.

Yes, someone is here.

(Taegoo stands up upon
hearing the sound of a car)

Isn't that Uhm Taegoo?
It's Taegoo!

- Taegoo?
- Yes.

- Oh.
- Taegoo is here.

(Seungwon and Taegoo filmed
'Night in Paradise' together)

(Haejin and Taegoo filmed
'A Taxi Driver' together)

Taegoo.

Taegoo.

Oh!

Taegoo, take this. Come here.

(He runs to receive
great treatment as a guest)

- Taegoo.
- Taegoo.

Nice to see you.

(Haejin and Taegoo haven't met
for a long time)

- Taegoo.
- Seungwon.

You came so early.
It's only 10...11AM.

I have to go to the washroom.

How did you know that it was me?

- I'm glad you're here.
- Thank you.

(Seungwon and Taegoo greet
one another warmly)

- Take these over there.
- Okay.

(He is fidgeting as there
are more things to carry)

Hold on...

(He carefully places
twisted doughnuts on the porch)

(And runs to get more things)

- Here.
- Okay.

- Just take these.
- Okay.

It's Taegoo.

- Aren't you happy to see him?
- I met him recently.

(Taegoo is much calmer now
as they have arrived)

I'm glad you're here, Taegoo.

- Taegoo.
- Yes.

Are those your things?

- Yes.
- Follow me.

(The owner helps his guest
to check in first)

(He opens the door, which
Taegoo peeked from, widely)

Thank you.

(Seungwon guides him to his room)

- This is your room.
- Okay.

- Put your things here.
- Okay.

Get changed
into something comfortable.

- Okay.
- Hold on, Taegoo.

Let me do this for you.

(He covers the camera
so Taegoo can change)

Thank you.

(Seungwon is happy to see
his close friend as a guest)

(He takes the pegs out of
his bag)

(And pegs the clothes
so they do not fly away)

(This is safer now)

(Taegoo has changed into shorts)

(Taegoo brings his slippers)

(And puts away his sneakers)

(Struggling)

(He becomes shy again as
the hosts are not there)

(He relies on the pillar
once again)

(He is still unfamiliar with
3 Meals House)

Taegoo.

(He smiles again when
he sees Taegoo)

Taegoo!

It's not easy to see you as
a guest at a place like this.

Not at all.

How have you been?

I'm just the same.

- Just the same?
- Yes.

Your voice is the same too.

I'm so happy to have Taegoo here.

I'm glad Taegoo is here.

- Taegoo.
- Yes.

What did you bring...

- Ah...
- He brought grapes for us.

You brought us Shine Muscat.

(Taegoo brought peaches
and Shine Muscat for them)

You can have these.

(Twisted doughnuts from the market
that Cha and Yoo bought for them)

(3 Meals House is full of love)

- Make yourself comfortable.
- Okay.

- You don't have to do this.
- Okay.

Thank you.

Have some, Taegoo.
Did you have breakfast?

No, I did not.

You didn't? You should eat then.

(They each have one doughnut)

Do you want one?

No.

Are you sure? It's delicious.

It's tasty since
it is freshly fried.

This scorched rice...

(All of these are scorched rice)

I usually eat this.

It is delicious.

(The second gift from Taegoo
is scorched rice)

Have a seat.

How have you been, Taegoo?

That went really well for you...

(The drama that Taegoo was in)

('My Sweet Mobster'
has finished airing)

You were amazing.

Thank you.

(Scratching)

Taegoo looks nervous.

I'll be fine soon enough.

I've never been here so...

- You don't have to say that.
- Okay.

If you don't like to talk,
we don't have to talk.

- You don't have to talk.
- Okay.

That is how things are here.

We just relax.

- I see.
- Just relax.

I think I'll slowly
feel more comfortable.

We are relaxed today.

Right? Very relaxing.

- What is the time now?
- It's 11AM.

Let's eat around 1 or 2.
Let's do that.

We can just eat slowly.

(They went out early
to go to the market)

(So they decided to relax for now)

(Even the residents)

(are enjoying their free time)

We are very free.

(There's someone who doesn't know
how to relax)

(He gets something from
the shoe rack)

(Baseball glove?)

Taegoo, do you play catch?

Yes.

Taegoo, do you play baseball?

Yes, I do.

(They are suddenly
playing catch)

Good.

(Seungwon was a baseball player
until middle school)

(Taegoo's ball goes straight)

Wow.

You're good at tossing.

(After getting praised)

(he tosses the ball
with all his might)

My goodness.

(The ball flies high)

(Mr. Cha's super catch)

(Back-to-back super catch)

Taegoo, you used to be
a baseball player?

Back in elementary school, yes.

You were an athlete?

No, I just played with my friends.

(He was a neighborhood
baseball player)

You're good.

First off, you can toss the ball.

(Laughing)

- He's good.
- Really?

- Taegoo is a good player.
- Give me that.

(He's a student from
Cha Seungwon Baseball Academy)

(Here comes Mr. Yoo)

(Short)

Let me try one more time.

(He warms up his shoulders)

(He tosses it with all his might)

Is that a curve? It seems like it.

(He outs himself after
making a perfect toss)

(He just watches them
while seated)

(Nice catch)

I'm sorry.

(He makes a wild throw)

I'm sorry.

I think he's trying to kill me.

My hands are slippery.

Where is the ball?

(The ball goes out of
their yard because of the toss)

Oh! Yes!

It's right here.

(Bump)

(They stop playing catch
before they get hurt badly)

We haven't met in ages.

You're good, Taegoo.

Not at all.

(They are done exercising)

- Isn't it hot now?
- Yes, it is.

Drink some water.
There's water over there.

Our water is over there.

(Chef Cha checks on
his bone broth)

(They boiled the bone broth
as soon as they arrived yesterday)

(They even controlled the fire
to boil it well)

(Even while making geotjeori)

(He rushes quickly with
chili powder to add more firewood)

(He doesn't stop fanning
even when frying kimchi)

(From the daytime)

(to the nighttime, they continue
to boil the broth)

(It is ready late at night)

(Chef Cha is back in front
of the broth)

(He removes the broth
from the brazier)

(He brings it inside so that
it won't get wet by the dew)

Wow.

This is wonderful.

Let me boil this again.

(White bone broth that
was made with love)

(He will remove the layer of fat
before boiling it again)

Have you heard about
our lunch menu?

I haven't.

We've been simmering this
for a long time.

Ah!

We will make rice cake soup
using this broth.

(Lunch menu: Rice cake soup
made of bone broth)

Taegoo, you don't have any
allergies to that, do you?

I love it.

(Thank goodness he is not
allergic to rice cake soup)

What have you been up to?

I've been exercising

and resting.

Shall I do that?

No, it's okay.

Just leave it be and talk.

(He suffers even more from
being told to sit down and talk)

(He is seated for now)

What interests you these days?

Well...

All you do is exercise?

After exercising...

I immediately came here

and loved the time I spent
traveling here.

(They are back in silence
after a conversation)

'A Taxi Driver'?

(He starts a conversation
using their common memory)

I didn't see you much back then.

You were amazing, Taegoo.

(They are the same person)

It was a great role.

Even when I read the script,
I realized the role was great.

You pulled it off well too.

- Oh my.
- For real.

Thank you very much, Haejin.

(They get awkward again
after the praise)

The sound of the birds
is very funny.

Hmm?

- Ah.
- Right?

(Imitating the bird)

(He is laughing as loud as he can)

(While they laugh from
hearing the birds chirping)

(It's time for Chef Cha to check
on the geotjeori)

(He is just checking on
the fermentation stage)

(Right after he was done
making the kimchi)

(It has fermented this much
within a day)

(He tastes it while feeling
excited and worried)

Did it ferment well?

We can have it with
our rice cake soup.

(Additional dish:
geotjeori that was made yesterday)

(They decided to rest
until it's time for lunch)

(Haejin decides to lie down
in his room)

(Taegoo is left alone again)

(He peeks into the room)

(He is about to remove
his shoes...)

(but then makes a U-turn)

(The place that is
more comfortable than the room)

(He hides by the pillar)

(He is anxious even
during their break time)

(Healing)

(As soon as Seungwon
steps out of his room)

(He is attracted to him
just like a magnet)

Why?

I was just going back and forth.

(He can't stop laughing
as he's happy to see Seungwon)

Please give me that basket.

- Okay.
- Basket.

- The one on top.
- On top?

(He is suddenly given a job)

- Blue basket.
- Okay.

That...Give me that.

(Seungwon who doesn't know
how to rest goes to the patch)

(He shops for chilies
without hesitation)

I will help you.

Just get the sesame leaves.

(Even Taegoo starts to do work)

Pick the big ones.

Okay.

That one.

(He carefully plucks
one sesame leaf)

(Hesitant)

(He passes his sesame leaves
with both hands humbly)

(1 harvest, 1 humility)

(His left hand is busier than
the right hand that's harvesting)

Don't you think this is
not the right leaf?

Why are you working like this?

(The white leaf seems
to not be fresh anymore)

Why did you not look
at leaves like this?

Ah...

(They are done shopping
for fresh sesame leaves)

Was he helpful?

He harvested a leaf
that was not fresh.

(The leaf that is not fresh
is in his hand)

Let me wash those.

Do it like this. See.

There was someone who scrubbed

the lettuce.

(Me?)

(He gives an explanation
to avoid getting pickled leaves)

(Wash the leaves one by one
with running water)

Taegoo, you can wash these now.

(He lets the wilted leaf
go back to nature)

(He washes his hands clean first)

(He washes the leaves
one by one)

What do you have to do
with those sesame leaves?

I don't know.

(He doesn't know what
those leaves are for)

(But it seems like he is washing
his hands more than his leaves)

(Hi)

(Surprised)

(Although he feels a bit
uncomfortable with the camera)

(He still washes the leaves
one by one)

(What is Chef Cha going to do
with the sesame leaves?)

(Last night)

This smells great.

(Both of them are satisfied
with the state of the leaves)

It'll be great if we can make
pickled sesame leaves.

(They decided to make
pickled sesame leaves)

(He starts by making
the seasoning for the pickles)

(He gets thick soy sauce
hidden deep inside)

(Pour the soy sauce out)

(A bit more)

(Pour sand lance extract
to add more umami)

(Lots of chili powder)

(Sugar)

(Vinegar)

(Here comes the washed
sesame leaves)

Leave those there.

(This is a tower of
stacked sesame leaves)

Please peel these.

(Next task: Peel garlic)

(He removes the roots
and the part that's not fresh)

(Request to wash vegetables)

(He puts the garlic aside
for now)

(And washes the Welsh onions)

(While Assistant Uhm
washes the Welsh onion clean)

(He continues to make
seasoning for sesame leaves)

(Add sesame seeds and
sesame oil for savoriness)

(Add more chili powder)

(They are craving
something spicy today)

(This time, he delivers
the Welsh onions)

(Slice only the white parts
to add into the seasoning sauce)

(Assistant Uhm continues
his task to peel garlic)

(He seems to struggle
to hold the peel)

What is it?

Has it always been hard
to peel garlic?

Yes, that's how it is.

That's why peeling garlic
has always been the hardest.

Honestly, that's the toughest.

(He only peeled two cloves)

(Next is chilies)

(He slices them too)

(And minces them)

(He adds the minced chilies
into the sauce too)

(He slices red chilies
diagonally as well)

Jeez.

(Slipping)

(He minces them quickly)

(And adds them to the sauce)

(Mix them well)

Let's add a bit more vinegar.

(Adding more tartness)

Done.

I just have to add more garlic.

Yes.

(The amount of peeled garlic
has increased)

(He is getting rid of flies)

(This is the first time we see
Taegoo being proactive)

(After chasing away the fly)

(He is back to his usual
serious mode)

That's enough, Taegoo.

(He is now free from
peeling any garlic)

(He will remove the ends of
the garlic and pound them)

- I will do that.
- Please do.

(He starts to pound the garlic
after peeling them)

(He's extracting the juice
instead of pounding the garlic)

You can do that.

Taegoo.

(He is getting thirsty)

(Chef Cha's advice
motivates him further)

(And this time he starts
to grind the garlic)

(He does that very quickly too)

(Let me do that)

(He lost his job)

(The garlic is getting minced
very quickly)

(This is how you pound garlic)

(The nicely pounded garlic)

(is mixed into the sauce
and the seasoning is done)

(It's time to coat
the sesame leaves with seasoning)

(He takes 3 leaves)

(And pours a generous amount
of seasoning sauce)

(Sprinkle sesame seeds on top)

(Third side dish,
pickled sesame leaves is done)

This is very refreshing.

Yes, it is.

(That is when they feel
the refreshing wind of Mount Jiri)

(While enjoying
the refreshing wind)

(Taegoo continues to peel garlic)

(Chef Cha slowly gets ready
to make rice cake soup)

(It's time for the bone broth
to shine)

(He scoops the bone broth
into a pot to make the soup)

(He pours the leftover broth
into a container)

(and keeps it in the fridge)

(Finally, Taegoo is done
peeling garlic)

(Taegoo peeled approximately
80 cloves of garlic)

(He goes to the faucet
to get rid of the peels)

Oh.

(There is a mantis near
the faucet)

(He is nervous when
facing insects)

Oh no.

(It is on top of
the organic waste bin)

(He covers the insect
with the lid of the bin)

(Goodbye)

(Flinching)

(He turns on the faucet
after shooing the mantis)

(He doesn't know how
to use Mulmoa yet)

No, that's not how it's done.

Haejin made this.

(He uses Mulmoa)

- Oh.
- He made it.

(He can't stop looking at
this cutting-edge technology)

Please put

this much water in this.

- Okay.
- Like that.

(He will make new broth by
boiling the bones once again)

- Done.
- I'll carry that.

(Chef Cha removes
the heavy cauldron)

Please get me the lid.

(Taegoo's step is between
a stride and a tiptoe)

(He takes the lid)

Done.

(Haejin wakes up just on time
for lunch)

(He starts the fire
as soon as he wakes up)

(Taegoo follows Haejin
to the firewood zone)

Yes. It'll be better if I
assign you something, right?

- Yes.
- Carry those.

- These?
- Yes.

Are we using the bigger
or smaller one?

- Both.
- You need both?

It's because I will boil this
to make bone broth again.

(This is bone broth)

I can make egg garnishing
and rice cake soup here.

(Chef Cha has given
his briefing on the brazier)

(He takes the seasonings
that he needs)

(And organizes them first)

(Haejin and Taegoo get ready
to start the fire)

Do you like camping?

No, this is my first time.

- Really?
- Yes.

So, I don't know
how I should get this done.

I'll do it.
You can observe me from the side.

- Shall I stack them like this?
- Yes.

(They take turns to stack
the firewood)

- Here. The newspaper.
- Yes.

Do it like this.

(He gives detailed guidance
to the beginner)

(He observes how Haejin
tears the newspaper again)

(And tears it just as how
he was taught)

(Crumple it up)

(and passes it to Haejin)

(Extra small)

My goodness.

Are you joking?

(While the two of them
have fun starting the fire)

(Chef Cha starts to prepare
ingredients for the soup)

(He slices a lot of Welsh onions)

(He moves the prettily sliced
Welsh onions into a bowl)

(Next, he prepares ingredients
to make egg garnishing)

(Two eggs)

(After stirring the yolk
and egg white diligently)

(The eggs are ready)

(He wraps and leaves them aside
until it's time to cook them)

What made you start acting?

In the beginning...

How did it start?

They made me act at the church.

(The first time Taegoo acted was
in a play by the church)

After that, my friend said that

we should learn to act.
We were 18 back then.

Your friend suggested that?

Yes, so I...

Did he say that because
he saw your talent?

No, he is very handsome.

- He asked me to join him.
- So you did.

I started because I thought
that it looked amazing.

Is he acting now too?

He...

immediately started his studies
at an art academy.

He isn't acting?

I registered to study
at an acting school.

He is now working
as a designer.

You should thank him.

Is that so?

When I think about it again,

I think you are quite introverted.

How did you decide to become
an actor when you're an introvert?

But when I'm with
my close friends,

I can talk a lot.

I even love to joke around.

However, I think my shyness
makes people uncomfortable.

I don't want to make people
feel that way

but it just happens.

It gets even more awkward
if I pretend to feel at ease.

You don't have to force yourself
to do that.

How old are you now?

I'm 42.

(Shocked)

Really?

You look very young.

Thank you.

This is what I wanted to say.

People change as they age.

That's why I asked your age.

However, you seem to have frozen.

I did change a lot.

You don't have to force yourself.

So, I'll just be true to myself.

That's what we should do.

I think it's done now.

(The wood is on fire
as they chat)

(Seungwon is here)

It is hot, isn't it?

Be honest.

- I'm sweating but I'm fine.
- His back is soaking wet.

I didn't know that Taegoo
is 42 years old.

You're not 42.

I'm 42.

Really?

My goodness.

Taegoo.

I think it's too much that
I am speaking casually with you.

Be mindful.

I'll do that in front of him.

(He puts his hands together
in a humble manner)

My goodness.

Why? What is it?

(Hesitant)

Just tell me.

I'm happy.

(Shy Taegoo)

This is happiness.

(This time, he sets Yeolmoa)

(He starts cooking right away)

(He places the pan coated
with oil over the fire)

Please get me gloves.

Gloves?

Gloves...

Gloves? They're over there.

(He works on the eggs
instead of telling where they are)

Gloves.

Any gloves are fine.

Any gloves?

(Usually,
it's this kind of gloves)

(He searches the shoe rack)

(But they're not there)

(Hesitant)

(Chef Cha is now in front
of the brazier)

(Let's find them now)

(He found the gloves for pots)

(Will this be okay?)

(He takes them for now)

This...

Seungwon, these gloves...

Are they okay?

These gloves...

(It's time to pour in beaten eggs)

(He is frozen)

(He spreads the egg
into a thin layer)

(Thankfully,
his gloves are accepted)

(He shakes the pan using
the gloves given by Taegoo)

I can't control the fire.

I see.

(That's the reason he has
to control the heat himself)

(He checks how cooked
the eggs are)

(He cooks them again)

(And saves the eggs
from the hot fire)

(He rolls the eggs to make sure
they are cooked until the inside)

We just have to put that
over the fire.

- This one?
- Yes, that's right.

Without the ladle?

Yes, put it on the fire
without the ladle.

(He puts the ladle aside)

(And delivers the pot
to the brazier)

It's hot.

(Hopping)

(Cha-derella goes in
after leaving his shoes)

(While Cha-derella
gets rice cakes)

(Prince Taegoo
organizes the shoes)

(He prepares lots of rice cakes
enough for three people)

(He soaks them in water)

(And leaves them for a moment)

(The brisket that
he prepared yesterday)

(He adds one fistful of brisket)

(He seasons it with salt)

(Right before this becomes a
tasty meal using bone broth)

(Chef Cha is back at the porch)

(He is preparing the egg garnish)

(He slices it into
thin and uniform sizes)

(The duo who are in front
of the fire)

Do you live alone?

Yes, I do.

You don't cook, do you?

- No, I don't.
- You usually get food delivered?

I don't. I would usually
eat one meal out.

There are times I have
scorched rice for my other meal.

I guess you love scorched rice.

What about you?

I don't cook often either.

- It's not boiling?
- What?

(Rushing)

- Is it boiling?
- Not yet.

- It's boiling?
- Not yet.

- Not yet?
- No.

(Equipment team takes charge)

Come on.

(He knows what
the problem is right away)

- So...
- Why? What is it?

You need someone
from the headquarters.

This equipment is not used right.

Something is wrong?

What is the matter?

(Yeolmoa was placed
in the wrong position)

(He places it
in the right position)

(With the equipment set up
well, the fire is now efficient)

(Amazed)

So that is how it's done.

(In awe)

That is how the technology works?

We need the technician from
headquarters to come over.

That's why work is tough for me.

(The tough life of a technician)

(The broth starts to boil
with the touch of the technician)

(He gets the minced Welsh onion)

(And adds it to the bone broth)

We need Welsh onions.

Eating that

and kimchi will be so tasty.

(There goes the soaked rice cakes)

That's a lot.

It is.

(This is one pot
of rice cake soup)

(He pours the beaten egg
into the rice cake soup)

(He adds it in by pouring it
in the pot in a circular motion)

What must we do next?

We can garnish it with eggs
and laver flakes.

That sounds good.

(He takes one rice cake)

(He tastes it)

We need to let it boil longer.

(The rice cakes still need time
to cook)

Let's let it cook using steam.

(He plans to serve stir-fried
kimchi from yesterday too)

Taegoo.

Yes.

Please get me gloves.

Okay.

There is an open door.

(There are vinyl gloves here)

(Glove?)

(Glove?)

(Glove for the pot)

Not that...

(This is not it?)

The door that is open?

The one at the bottom is open.

At the bottom.

(Bottom? Open door?)

At the bottom.

(Not under the porch)

I'll search for it.

At the bottom.

(Ah)

(He lies down)

(Finally, he found the gloves)

(Ah)

- How many do you need?
- One is enough.

(He prepares the glove so that
Seungwon can use it easily)

(Sigh of relief)

(Geotjeori that he made yesterday)

(Stir-fried kimchi
that he made yesterday)

Taegoo, please harvest
a few crunchy chilies.

Over there?

- At the patch.
- Okay.

The chilies...Honey!

Harvest some crunchy chilies.

- Crunchy chilies?
- Yes.

You mean foot chilies?

(Foot chilies)

(Taegoo gets a basket
to go to the patch)

(Ugh)

(Grunting)

(Panting)

We don't need much, do we?

- Five?
- We don't need much, right?

I think this is enough.

(He rinses them cleanly
under water)

It's boiling well.

Do we have to wait until
the rice cakes are cooked?

Yes.

It's fine even if it is not
completely cooked, isn't it?

You don't mind that?

No.

Wait. Let me taste this.

(Anticipation)

Let's serve it now.

Just scoop it out in that.

(Scooping generous amount of
rice cake into a bowl)

(Egg on top)

(and some laver flakes
are used as garnishing)

(The rice cake is ready)

(Introducing today's lunch)

(Two types of kimchi that are made
by Chef Cha)

(Crunchy geotjeori)

(And umami packed
stir-fried kimchi)

(Fresh crunchy chilies too)

(The highlight of this meal)

(Made using bone broth
that is simmered all day)

(Clean-tasting rice cake soup
made with lots of brisket)

Bon appetit.

If you want black pepper,
here you go.

It's good with black pepper.

(Sprinkling black pepper
as recommended by Chef Cha)

(Taegoo sprinkles
black pepper on his too)

Try it. I hope it's good.

Try it.

Obviously, it's good.

(Words are unnecessary to express
Chef Cha's rice cake soup)

Try it, Taegoo.

(He tastes the soup first)

(And takes another sip)

This is very tasty.

(Wow)

(He loves to see how
Taegoo enjoys his meal)

(He takes a bite after listening
to their positive response)

This will be good with rice too.

- Right?
- Yes.

I just made this kimchi.

This tastes perfect.

He made this yesterday.

The kimchi?

It has fermented to perfection.

(The geotjeori is fermented
perfectly within a day)

(He tastes the stir-fried kimchi
that was made yesterday)

(Chef Cha eats
stir-fried kimchi as well)

We made this yesterday.

(Both types of kimchi go perfectly
with the rice cake soup)

(Taking a sip of
clean-tasting rice cake soup)

(Next is spicy geotjeori)

(He wraps the bite up with
crunchy chili)

The meat here tastes great.
It is delicious.

We still get to eat a meal.

Look at Taegoo. He's pale too.

He is.

(He eats the rice cake soup)

(And checks his skin)

Sunlight...

You're allergic to sunlight?

It's because I haven't been
under the sun for a long time.

You are a homebody too?

I barely go out.

You don't go out either, do you?

Yes, he barely goes out.

What do you do at home?

(This is Taegoo,
the homebody's daily schedule)

Don't you feel suffocated
when you're home?

I do get bored.

Really?

You enjoy that?

(Taking a deep breath)

I don't enjoy it.

But I have nowhere to go.

(He does not stay at home
voluntarily)

(But he still does something,
doesn't he?)

I do this and that.

Do you play games?

I don't.

(They want to know his daily life
but found nothing out)

Taegoo, you're not ordinary.

(Not ordinary Uhm Taegoo)

We're having
spicy braised chicken?

Yes.

(Today's dinner is
spicy braised chicken)

You're happy?

I love it.

(Their first meal with Taegoo
has ended)

(Since they are full)

(It's time to do the dishes
with Taegoo)

(They carry the table
carefully together)

Let's put it here for now.

(The table is placed safely
in front of the faucet)

(They pour all leftovers
in one bowl)

(And throw them out at one go)

It's easy to use
because it has a big lid.

(He empties everything
in the bin)

This cleans everything nicely.

(He is done getting rid
of the organic waste)

(It's time for them
to do the dishes)

(While Chef Cha
cleans the kitchen)

Do you know
how to do the dishes?

Yes, I do the dishes often.

(Taegoo starts to do the dishes)

Move a bit more.

I'm fine.

Please rest.

(Haejin joins him so that
they can get it done quickly)

(He is trying to adjust
the position of Mulmoa)

That's uncomfortable for you.

(Mulmoa is almost right in front
of Taegoo's face)

- Come here.
- This is like a microphone.

(They are very considerate)

(They find their own comfortable
spot and start doing the dishes)

(He is in charge of soaping
the dishes)

(He is in charge of rinsing)

Looks like you do
the dishes back at home.

- You do it often.
- Doing the dishes...

I guess not.

(The knife is not soaped properly)

(My goodness)

I guess you don't.

(He wants to be teased
continuously)

(He cleans the knife that is
not too clean)

(This time, he is fully focused)

(to make sure
nothing is missed)

(He wipes down the basin too)

(Haejin then rinses it cleanly)

Done.

(Taegoo's first time
doing the dishes is complete)

(He wets his feet with
cold water as well)

(He wets Taegoo's feet too)

(Feeling refreshed)

(They let the dishes dry
under the hot sun)

(He takes a look at Mount Jiri)

(A relaxing afternoon
with a refreshing breeze)

(If you wonder if there are those
who are as busy as them)

We are free.

- What?
- We are free.

(There are three people
who have become free)

Do you like marsh snail porridge?

Marsh snail?

No, I don't.

- You don't?
- Why?

I was thinking
of collecting marsh snails.

Then, we can have
some marsh snails.

Okay. It'll be nice to get some.

Well, I thought of that
as we don't have anything to do.

Okay, let's get marsh snails.

Or we can go and play gateball.

(They decided to get marsh snails
from the chilling valley)

Let's go there.

Let's visit the pagoda.

Yes, we can do that.

(They decided to visit the
cultural site on the way there)

(Let's get going
without hesitation)

Okay.

Type in Baekjangam.

Back?

(He loves it)

(Taegoo is addicted
to Haejin's jokes too)

(Searching on the navigation)

You're good, Taegoo.

(Embarrassed)

(He sets out while receiving
lots of love)

Taegoo, do you love cars?

I only have a license on paper.

But I haven't driven much.

What's your hobby, Taegoo?

I didn't have any

but got hooked on exercising.

- Exercise?
- Yes.

Do you still go to
the chueo-tang restaurant?

(Taegoo usually gets
chueo-tang after exercising)

I still eat that until today.

You like it?

It's not that I love it

It's a type of soup

and a place that I can park easily
on my way home.

The restaurant is also spacious.
I can enjoy my meal comfortably.

That's why I go there daily.

You go there daily
the entire week?

One day, the owner asked me

if it is tasty.

He asked if I'm not sick of it.

(That even resulted in him getting
the owner's attention)

Are you not sick of it?

Do they change the side dishes?

They are the same.

One of the side dishes
is fresh tofu.

When I eat that fresh tofu
after exercising...

They have that too?

I feel...

- Good?
- I feel healthier.

(Taegoo's go-to food after
exercising is chueo-tang and tofu)

There it is.

Baekjangam Three-Story Pagoda.

It's the National Treasure 10.

(Finally,
they found the signboard)

Yes, it's amazing to be
the 10th national treasure.

(He is driving peacefully)

(A bump)

I'm sorry.

(At the bumper after that)

I'm sorry.

(Clanking)

I felt nothing.

(This time, they are driving up
a road that is not smooth)

(Their whole body is moving)

- I didn't feel anything.
- What? You felt something?

(He is embarrassed)

(He feels guilty for making
three mistakes consecutively)

I can't believe that we can't
feel anything at all.

I didn't know that I was so dense.

(They are sincere in
protecting Taegoo's feelings)

I think we just drove on a stone.

(He doesn't know what to do)

You can't feel anything, can you?

Me neither.

You felt nothing, did you?

I thought I'd be able to feel it.

(In the end, Taegoo decided
to just follow their skit)

I was flustered that
I felt nothing at all.

The bumper is a useless thing.

(This is what they see
as they chat and laugh together)

(It is the green forest path
towards Baekjangam)

I guess we're here.

(Finally, they can see it)

This is the place.

Is that it? Is that the pagoda?

(Baekjangam Pagoda is right
in front of them)

(At Baekjangam which is a
small temple in Silsangsa Temple)

(is National Treasure 10 which is
a Three-Story Pagoda)

It has been well-preserved.

Yes, I agree.

National Treasure Number 10.

You can still see
the pattern very clearly.

(Even the vivid patterns
are found on the elaborate stone)

(are preserved well and became
known as a masterpiece)

Daeungjeon Hall is magnificent.

When I look at this,

the decorations and the structure
of this pagoda

are completely different from
ordinary pagodas.

Why?

The height is 5 meters.

The base of the pagoda

is very low?

However, the structure
on the first level

is very high as compared
to the size of its width.

(Something is weird)

That's the reason the width
of this pagoda didn't change much.

The structure of the pagoda
is very unique.

That is your personal opinion
as you look at it, isn't it?

Yes.

It's written right here.

(He was actually just reading
what was on the information board)

Your interpretation
is the same as theirs.

(Nodding as he is still
unaware of the real situation)

Seems like it.

Let's go.

I went to Gyeongju on a school
trip.

Gyeongju? Me too.

Where did you go?

I went to Gyeongju too
back in elementary school.

Elementary school.

This looks amazing.

Right? It looks magnificent,
doesn't it?

It looks like it has been
carved on recently.

(The pagoda looks even more
magnificent from up close)

First floor,

second and third floor.

Must you really count it?

(Well, it is called
the Three-Story Pagoda)

(Amazed upon looking at it)

Look at the calyx on top.

(They are amazed when they look
at it from the opposite side)

Those looks like petals.

(They are in awe upon looking
at it from various angles)

What do you think?

(Suddenly posing a question
to Taegoo)

It's time for you
to say something.

You saw everything, didn't you?

- Say something
- What do you think?

(He is facing a crisis because
of the sudden question)

- Oh...
- What do you think of it?

(Anticipating)

Although the pagoda
was built in the 1700s

and we are now in the 2020s,

it feels like time
has passed by very quickly.

There's not much difference.

(Hmm)

Just go right now.

(The pagoda left a strong
impression on Taegoo as well)

Let's go get marsh snails
and buy chicken later.

(Let's go catch marsh snails)

As you said, we are here
just for a moment.

Don't you feel that way too?

Yes, it was said that the pagoda
was built in the 1700s.

(This is what they see
when they enter the alley)

(They enter Haejin's jogging path
at the stream)

(The spot to catch marsh snails)

This is where I ran
in the morning.

(This clear stream that flows
from Mount Jiri)

(is the place where
marsh snails are living)

(They live by eating the moss
that builds up on these rocks)

(Marsh snails are one of
the species of water snails)

(and can be found mainly
at shallow freshwater)

(They are mainly known
as water snails)

(and many other names)

(depending on the region)

(We collected marsh snails
at a place that we're allowed to)

I can see them.

(The trio has arrived at
the spot to collect marsh snails)

Let me see.

I got one.

Really?

This is empty.

(Some of the shells are empty)

(Taegoo tries to look carefully
into the water as well)

You found any?

(Staggering)

I found one.

Is this the spot
you mentioned about?

They are over here.

(He opens his eyes wide
to find marsh snails again)

They are so tiny.

You found any?

They are so tiny.

We don't have to take
the tiny ones.

(Where)

(are the many marsh snails?)

(His back is in pain
without gaining anything)

Perhaps someone caught everything.

(They found nothing
no matter how hard they try)

Shall we go somewhere else?

Let's search this place.

Didn't someone search this place?

It's best to go somewhere else
since someone came here.

(Actually, the spot they 're at)

(It's where residents have come
to collect marsh snails)

(They have gone high up there
from the place the trio are at)

(We should quickly move
to a new spot too)

It's deep here.

I can see the snails.

(Thankfully, they found
the best spot for marsh snails)

(They stare closely)

There are many here.

(The haven for marsh snails)

This is wonderful.

I found them here.

(They start
to collect marsh snails)

(Chef Cha is excited
to see marsh snails)

(And this is where he heads to)

(The spot
where the residents are at)

(The tip from the experts)

You might fall.

(He immediately squats down)

(He is getting a 1-on-1 lesson
from the expert)

This is a marsh snail, right?

Okay.

(That helps him understand
everything right away)

(If you look at how people
actually collect marsh snails)

(The marsh snails are located
on top of the green rock)

(Collecting marsh snails
is easy and fun)

(Haejin and Taegoo who just
know the theory of collecting)

(They have somewhat mastered
the skill of capturing snails)

(Mr. Ocean has become one
with the water)

(He seems to be made for it)

(He is getting faster)

(He gets it without looking)

(Staggering)

(Taegoo is still trying to
collect marsh snails)

(Instead of marsh snails)

(He is battling himself)

(He focuses again)

(and focuses on collecting
marsh snails again)

(He is definitely
the most passionate person here)

(He collects the marsh snail
that is hidden under the rock)

We are immersed in this now.

(The trio is immersed
in collecting marsh snails)

(When their backs start to hurt)

My back hurts.

How much did you get?

You got a lot.

I have almost the same amount.

Hey.

Honey.

- Shall we get going?
- Let's go.

- Let's go.
- This is enough.

Let's go, Taegoo.

(They have collected enough)

I thought we wouldn't get any.

But we did get marsh snails.

(It's time to leave now)

(They struggle to go up again)

(And stop)

(Addicted to
collecting marsh snails)

(Taegoo starts collecting again
as he was trying to walk up)

I can't stop looking.

On our way up...

It's because I can see them
on our way out.

(They can't stop collecting
marsh snails that they see)

This is addictive, isn't it?

(Collecting marsh snails
is addictive)

(That is how they keep themselves
cool on a hot afternoon)

(They drop by the mart
to buy fresh chicken for dinner)

(He even bought red bean buns)

We have to eat this
when it's cold.

Taegoo.

(He cuts the bread into half
and gives a piece to Taegoo)

(They re-energize themselves
with red bean buns)

(They head back home
to prepare dinner)

Okay.

- Good job.
- Good job.

(They go back home)

We can just take a quick shower.

- If not, we'll catch a cold.
- Yes.

(They dry themselves after
being wet in the stream)

(And it's time for some rest)

(Seungwon is out after
taking a shower)

(He organizes the clothes
that he wore)

(Eh?)

(Traces of moss)

(His pants have taints of green)

(He goes to the washroom
with his pants)

(He washes them right away)

(He squeezes the water)

(He lets the sun and wind
dry his pants)

(The clothes that are now
crisp and dry)

(The smell of sunlight)

(He takes them back home)

(This must be done
after doing laundry)

(Haejin is doing laundry)

You should take a shower.

(Seungwon is back out)

What are you going to do?

You should rest.

That...

What clothes are those?

This shows my devotion
towards cooking.

(Clothing to show his
devotion towards cooking)

(The chef look emits
his determination)

You are devoted to laundry

while I'm devoted to cooking.

You know, we have that behind you.

The green thing...

What is it called? Moss.

I had a lot of moss on me.

You just

- wash it, right?
- Yes.

(He feels at ease upon hearing
the hand-washing expert's answer)

(He is almost done
with doing his laundry too)

(He hangs them)

(He takes his dry laundry)

(Their break time AKA
laundry time is over)

(Dinner menu:
spicy braised chicken)

This, Taegoo.

Use this

to peel this.

Do it like this.

You know what to do, don't you?

You do, don't you?

(This means he is asking Taegoo
to help him peel potatoes)

This is how you do it.

I can just peel these
after washing them, right?

Yes, wash them first.

(While the new member of the
Cooking Team peels the potatoes)

(Chef Cha
is at the vegetable patch)

(Green onion)

(and chilies are harvested)

(They are then washed clean)

(Looks like the Equipment Team
has started their job)

(Heavy cauldron)

- That's heavy, isn't it?
- Yes, it is.

Haejin.

(He runs towards Haejin
as he is worried)

Please take this one.

(The newbie takes the lid)

(When Haejin takes the cauldron)

(Wow)

- Isn't it heavy?
- Yes, it is.

Let's rinse this.

(The newbie washes it clean)

Place it on that.

Over there?

(He places the cauldron
on the brazier)

(Haejin takes some
50 percent polished rice)

(After rinsing it lightly
for three or four times)

(He pours it into the cauldron)

(Checking the amount of water
using his hand)

(Pour in more water)

(The amount of water decides
the success of this rice)

This looks a bit too much.

I can't tell.

(He adds a bit more water)

This much.

(He turns around)

(Thinking hard)

(Adding a bit more water
for the third time)

(Detailed and serious about
measuring the amount of water)

(He is ready to cook
50 percent polished rice)

(Taegoo is peeling potatoes)

(Anxious)

(Oh!)

(Giggling)

(All he could do was to laugh
after dropping the potato)

(Searching)

(Taegoo is suddenly
searching for something)

What is it? Potato?

Potato?

Do we have tongs?

Tongs? What for?

Well...

I think it will make things fun.

We have tongs.

(Taegoo who took a pair of tongs)

(He uses them to hold the potato)

(He peels it quickly while
holding it with tongs)

It looked very dangerous.

(He is peeling the potato
safely and quickly)

(Chef Cha is cutting the chicken)

(To give it a cleaner taste)

(He removes the skin that
has a lot of fat)

(Onion)

(Carrot)

(and chilies are cut
into bite-sized pieces)

Are you done with the potatoes?

Yes.

You can pass them to me.

(He cuts potatoes that
were peeled by Taegoo)

(All ingredients to be added to
spicy braised chicken are ready)

Honey.

How is the rice...

You think the rice will be good?

I don't know.
I'm not sure about today's water.

We are quite high up.

I don't think that makes
a difference.

I think the amount of water
is what makes a difference.

(After measuring the amount
of water seriously)

(What's left
is to manage the fire)

(Wow)

Honey.

What is that?

(When the fire is too strong)

(The 50 percent polished rice
master removes some firewood)

(Chef Cha takes the seasoning)

(And places them on
the seasoning rack)

Garlic and...

Taegoo, we have gochujang inside.

Please take that for me.

(Assistant Taegoo is doing
something for Chef Cha)

(He found garlic)

(And gochujang)

(He leaves the gochujang behind?)

(This is what he took out
with the gochujang)

(Yogurt)

(He was thirsty)

(He goes back to work after
quenching his thirst)

(Haejin's focus is completely
on the rice)

(He has a solo tennis match)

(He is now back to work)

Taegoo.

Please get me cooking wine
and black pepper from there.

(Adding black pepper,
cooking wine and minced garlic)

(to marinade the chicken)

(will get rid of the smell
and make it more tender)

(Season it with some salt too)

I'll pass this to you.

- Please pound them.
- Okay.

(Garlic is always needed)

(Chef Cha removes the end
and places them in the mortar)

(The assistant pounds them)

(Garlic that has been pounded)

(Massage the chicken so
it absorbs the garlic flavor)

(Staring)

(He stops)

(Hesitates)

(He solves it himself)

(He waits and watches actively)

(Watching in a cool-headed way)

(Taegoo is helping Chef Cha
in his mind)

(Chef Cha cuts the green onion)

(He also adds three circles
of oil)

(And places the pan on the fire)

Wait.

We have to do this.

I have to make these flatter.

(He is adjusting the sunflower)

(But they are being stubborn)

- Done?
- No.

(He chooses to use
a more primitive item)

(He adjusts the sunflower
to the size of the wok)

(He places it)

(Yeolmoa is very versatile)

(He makes green onion oil
to give it better umami and smell)

(Cut chicken)

(Add them into the wok)

(The smell of green onion
that is sweet and pungent)

(Once they have been absorbed
by the chicken)

(Make the fire bigger)

(Add the cut vegetables too)

(Stir them so that
they get cooked evenly)

(Add chili powder to it)

(Season it with soy sauce)

(Scoop out a large amount
of gochujang)

(Adding sweetness and spiciness)

(Haejin checks on
the 50 percent polished rice)

(My gosh)

What is it?

Nothing.

It is still very watery.

You didn't add water?

(Groaning)

(Sighing)

(The chili powder container
flipped)

Thankfully, it flipped
inside this container.

But it flipped.

But still...

Hold on. This...

Just hold it like that.

(He has a good idea?)

Yes.

(He carries the whole container)

(He flips it again)

- Amazing.
- That's a success.

Amazing.

I knew it.

(They managed to save
most of the chili powder)

Pass me the chili powder.

(He adds more chili powder)

Taegoo.

(Add sugar too)

(When it starts to look like the
familiar spicy braised chicken)

(Pour generous amount of water)

(All that is left to do
is to wait)

That is more complex
than expected, isn't that?

I feel so busy.

Right?

(Tapping)

(Oh? I see)

We just have to tap Taegoo.

(Taegoo's surprised face)

(He cuts and adds Welsh onion)

We just have to let it simmer.

(He looks at the sky
while waiting)

(The dark sky
is filled with clouds)

(However, behind the clouds)

(The night sky in Mount Jiri
is filled with shiny stars)

- Taegoo.
- Yes.

Have you tried
50 percent polished rice before?

59 percent polished rice.

I never heard of it before.

- You never tasted it?
- No, I haven't.

Do you eat white rice back home?

I eat white rice.

(The rice is dry now)

I have brown rice too.

(The cooked rice)

Let me try this.

Try this.

(He tastes to see if it is cooked)

(Taegoo's first time to taste
50 percent polished rice)

It's a bit rough

and shapeless.

It's different from white rice,
isn't it?

It's like...

I know it's rice

but it tastes like corn.

Rice that tastes like corn. Yes.

(It's his first time to know
about 50 percent polished rice)

It's like that.

(The chef tastes it too)

- Isn't it good?
- Today's is the best.

- Really?
- Yes.

(Today's rice is the best so far)

I can't believe this.

This is amazing.

(The rice has been cooked
to perfection as well)

(What's left is
the spicy braised chicken)

(The gravy is getting thicker)

(He tastes it)

(That is what we need now)

(Spiciness)

(And some umami)

(Walking stealthily)

(Uhm Taegoo, 42 years old,
ladle holder)

(Using the ladle that
Taegoo was holding)

(To make sure all ingredients
absorb the seasoning)

(He mixes them and lets it simmer
until the gravy is thick)

We have to wait.

(Endless waiting)

- Taegoo.
- Yes.

The ones you washed earlier.

The spoons and chopsticks.

(They set the table
while waiting)

Shall I take
some pickled sesame leaves?

Yes. Sounds good.

(First time tasting
sesame leaves they made today)

(He gets some geotjeori too)

(And some stir-fried kimchi)

(He sets the table
on the wooden bench)

(Removes the lid)

Scoop some rice out first.

(50 percent polished rice
that is steaming hot)

This is how it is scooped.

(He scoops rice into a bowl)

This wooden spoon...

is perfect with this area.

This is Heungbugol.

That just crossed my mind too.

It's the image.

- But...
- Yes?

Heungbu...

was hit.

(Heungbu ate rice that stuck on
his cheek after getting slapped)

Shouldn't he prioritize his child?

(Oh? Rice?)

He should go to this child
just like this.

(A father would have given it
to his child)

- He was selfish?
- Yes.

He ate it alone?

(Heungbu was being
reevaluated again)

What do you think, Taegoo?

About his proposal.

I didn't hear anything.

I was busy carrying the rice.

(Sorry)

(After it was left to simmer
for a long time)

(Spicy braised chicken is ready)

This looks wonderful.

It's heavy. You should
put that on the side.

Give me that.

No, I'm fine.

(Assistant Uhm helps Chef Cha
in case it's heavy for him)

(Spicy braised chicken that
is boiling hot)

(has been served too)

(Today's dinner is ready)

(The same dish with two flavors.
Stir-fried kimchi and geotjeori)

(Salty and spicy sesame leaves)

(Savory rice)

(The ingredients have absorbed
the seasoning from being simmered)

(Spicy braised chicken)

Please help yourself.

Thank you for the meal.

Bon appetit.

Shall I serve you the chicken?

No, let me do this for you.

Okay.

(One bowl is served with care)

(He gets the precious drumstick)

Here you go.

You should eat that.

Yes, you should eat
what you served.

I'll serve myself.

Yes, that's better.

- I'll do it myself.
- Okay.

I understand how you feel.

(Thank you very much)

But the drumstick...

No, you should eat that.

We have more over there.

I have my own part.
Just eat it.

(Taegoo gets the drumstick again)

(This is a common sight
when eating with parents)

(They will serve their own food)

Enjoy.

Thank you for the meal.

I'm adding a bit here.

Thank you for the meal.

Enjoy.

Enjoy.

(Taegoo doesn't start eating
right away)

(Haejin takes one bite)

(And Seungwon takes one bite)

(Only then he eats his drumstick)

(Wow)

The chicken is really good.

It's tender.

Right? My goodness.

I think we let this simmer longer
than other food we made.

I thought you were making broth.

(They simmered it for more
than an hour)

(You can easily grab the meat)

(even when you use chopsticks
when eating spicy braised chicken)

Eat up, Taegoo.

This is so good.

(He mixes rice with the gravy)

(Yum)

This is good.

(Even carrots that have absorbed
the flavor from the seasoning)

I think making fried rice
out of this would be good too.

Yes, it is.

(This time, he eats
both carrots and sesame leaves)

(Haejin eats sesame leaves too)

(Yum)

(Yummy)

(A reaction that makes
the chef happy)

- It's good, isn't it?
- Yes, it is.

The leaves did not wilt either.

It's just right.

(This time, he eats the geotjeori)

This has fermented further.

It's more fermented now.

The rice is delicious.

It's very savory.

(Taegoo takes
a big mouthful of rice)

(He tastes the geotjeori that has
fermented for a day)

(Sesame leaves)

(Seungwon holds the leaf)

Thank you.

- That is two leaves.
- I see.

Eat both.

(Yummy)

(It's so good that he hums
as he chews his food)

(A meal that brings happiness)

Thank you.

(Taegoo gets the last drumstick)

I love this rice so much.

This is my favorite rice.

I finished up my rice.

(A satisfying dinner that
makes him feel guilty)

(Wow)

Taegoo, you eat in a decent way.

- Why?
- The way he chews...

Yes, he is very silent.

This is so tasty.

Hearing him talk like that

makes me want to speak
like him too.

Our volume is much lower now.

It's because...

We're practically whispering now.

Taegoo finished his rice.

He was...

(This is how they usually talk)

'You're done eating?'
That is how we talk.

Taegoo is done eating.

(This is their volume
when Taegoo is around)

'Is this how you eat?'
This is how we talk.

'Taegoo, that's two pieces
of sesame leaves.' Like this.

When you act,

your eyes just shine.

For real.

You don't remember this, do you?

It was after the premier
of 'The Age of Shadows.'

At the after party,

there were tables on the rooftop.

- Yes.
- We bumped

into each other at the stairs.

This was what you told me.

'I knew you'd be this successful.'

That left a very strong impression
of you on me.

It's because back then

there were people
who were criticizing me.

But after you said that to me...

That must have comforted you
and given you strength.

Anyway, only to me...

He only talks weirdly to me.

He is very kind to others.

(The dinner time with
candid conversation is over)

That was a good meal.

(Seungwon showers twice a day)

(This is what he uses
after taking a shower)

There's caviar in this.

My face is glowing.

Nice.

(Seungwon is done with
his skin routine)

(He sits in front of the TV)

(Taegoo is out
after taking a shower)

Goodnight, Seungwon.

Goodnight.

Go to sleep.

(Taegoo is tired as
he traveled far today)

(He goes to bed first)

Are you there?

(Haejin is back from his walk)

(He joins Seungwon to watch news)

If you eat carbohydrates,

it means we have consumed
sugar too, right?

(These days, they are interested
in controlling their sugar levels)

You have an interdental
toothbrush?

I heard we need to use it.

It's definitely better to do it.

(Their other interest
is oral care)

Do you have extra?

Hold on. I might have one.

Are you giving me a new
or a used one?

The used one stinks.
So it's good too.

This is a new one.

Thank you.

I'm going to bed.

Me too.

- Let's go to bed.
- Goodnight.

(All of them are going to bed)

(That is how they wrap up their
second day in Mount Jiri)

(The third morning in
tranquil Mount Jiri)

(3 Meals House that is
filled with fun and laughter)

It looks like we're celebrating
our young master's birthday.

(They prepared yellow corbina meal
perfect for a nobleman's birthday)

I bought that but I'm afraid
that it has expired.

(Expired?)

I'm afraid it might expire early.

(The things he worries about
makes others go crazy)

(There's something else
that makes Seungwon go crazy)

Are we going to Nogodan Peak?

(They go up to Nogodan Peak)

We will be walking for an hour.

(They warm up before going up)

(Taegoo, Seungwon and Haejin
have begun to walk up to the peak)

Why are you running?

Huh?

(They decided to walk but
Haejin starts to run)

(The staff give up filming him
because he is running?)

I can't run.

We never expected this.

(Taegoo runs with the camera
instead of the staff)

What is this?

Is this not the place?

(What happened at Mount Jiri where
Haejin and the staff go missing?)

We can't leave today, can we?

(It was a tough day that
makes them want to go home)

Seungwon, can you see the stars?

(This is what makes them
forget about their tough day)

(The final gift from Mount Jiri)

(The sky is filled with stars)

- This is the reason we're here.
- Yes.

I think we'll get to see
the Milky Way too.

Look up there.

(What view will they get on
their last day in Mount Jiri?)

What do you like, Taegoo?

I am technologically illiterate.

So I'm bad with technology.

I have a cavity.

I...No, it's okay.

Say it.

Honestly, before I came here,

I brushed my teeth.

- I'm sorry.
- No, it's okay.

- Hey!
- I'm sorry.

You have potential.

You're pretty good.

I wanted to but then
it felt so chilly.

No.

He's not bad at all.

Don't regret your decision
once you get there.

Good.

Brush your teeth, cavity.

- You brushed your teeth?
- Yes.

That's good.
