The 119 food rescue team was having a get-together at the spicy braised short ribs store.
As usual, Jongseok's menu has been made several times so that the owner can get used to it and sell it.
A single door opened in a noisy atmosphere.
The Japanese, who saw people inside, came in without knowing that there was a filming team.
Jong-seok hurried out when the owner tried to tell the customer that he was out of business today.
"Sit down here."
When the owner saw him in wonder, Jong-seok said slightly.
"This is my first Japanese guest. It's a great opportunity to be evaluated."
It was only when they were promoting in front of the store that they had a tasting event for free, but the Japanese who came in now are paying customers.
So you'll hear a definite story.
The owner nodded, received the menu from the guest, and entered the kitchen.
Jong-seok followed behind and winked at VJ, and he secretly left the camera so that the customer wouldn't know and started filming.
If the customer says no after the shoot, they will delete it or it will air it.
Cooked quickly, one serving of braised short ribs, soup, rice, and side dishes went out to the Japanese guest.
The Japanese guest ate with the word "Svarashii" and soon put ribs in his mouth.
And I took a big breath as if it was spicy and put the soup in my mouth.
"Uma (Delicious)!”
Jongseok breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of a Japanese guest taking turns eating galbi and soup.
"It looks delicious."
"Phew! Really... ... Thank you."
When the owner also gave a sigh of relief and thanked him, Jong-seok nodded and sat next to Kang Sung-soo.
Kang Sung-soo was texting with a serious face on his cell phone.
"What's the matter?"
"China... ...it seems Anna is being awkward."
"Are you being awkward?"
"China is so big that their schedules are set for Mondays and Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. And a day's schedule is longer than ours."
"Why don't you have two houses close by?”
Kang Sung-soo shook his head when he thought, "If China is wide and it takes a day to move around, we can just move closer to each other."
"It's hard to find a house that's doing well, but it's not easy to find a house that's not doing business like crazy."
"I see. And?"
"I think Anna's got a weird idea of cooking. I've fed the Chinese people, but they don't seem to be very responsive."
"What kind of store is it?”
"Korean style pork belly restaurant."
"Pork belly. ....”
Jong-seok, who was thinking about pork belly for a while, said.
"I'm sure there are pros and cons of pork belly, but they can't sell it to the point where 119 calls you?”
"At first, business was good here, but there seem to be several Korean-style pork belly restaurants around the house. Besides, I lost the competition because it was bigger and cheaper than the house.”
"You use Chinese pork belly, don't you?"
"I'm sure so. The Chinese say the upper classes eat well and live well, but...The average annual salary of Chinese people last year was 15 million won, but if you use pork belly in Korea, you will have to get 15,000 won or more per person....it's hard to think of the Chinese wallets."
"How about Korea?"
It'll be a little over 30 million won."
"There's a lot of people around me who don't make any better than that...….”
The original top 1 percent raises all the money. By percentage, the top 1 percent will get 1,400 a month, and over 90 percent will get 50."
"There's a big difference."
"Divided by the top 1% again, there's a huge gap between them. Anyway, that's not what's important, it's China. Do you have any good ideas?"
Jong-seok shrugged at Kang Sung-soo's words and said,
"I don't know much about China either. I don't know your taste buds.….”
"That's why I sent Anna to China...What the hell is he doing?”
grumbling, Kang Sung-soo took his cell phone and went out of the store. I'm trying to make a direct call.
Jong-seok was lost in thought for a while.
Anna's not cheap. She's passionate about cooking and she's talented....and China is his own courtyard. But why isn't it working?
It's been over half a year since Anna and I started broadcasting, but......there was still no cheapness before the shoot.
But he only had skills. And I won the World China Food Contest in China before.
'Pork belly....'
After thinking for a while, Jong-seok got up and sat down at the counter. Then he wrote on the paper at the counter.
In the paper-writing writers' experience, Jong-seok nodded while thinking for a moment.
In the writing on the paper, Jong-seok went out looking for Kang Sung-soo.
"Hey! Say it! If you sent it to China, you'd have to squeeze it somehow!"
Jong-seok sneaked up to Kang Sung-soo, who kept talking loudly, and on the phone.
"Your voice is too loud."
Kang Sung-soo sighed at Jong-seok's words and hung up.
"First of all, send me the materials and videos they made there. "I will..."
Kang Sung-soo glanced at the stalactites. Jong-seok nodded to Kang Sung-soo's desperate face.
"Let's watch it together."
"I'll see you with Jong-seok."
Kang Sung-soo, who hung up on it, grabbed his head.
"It's been a long time since I've had a drink and a good night's sleep.... Oh, my God."
Looking at Kang Sung-soo sighing, Jong-seok said.
"What did he make?”
"He made a steamed shellfish."
"Braised clam?"
"Samgyeopsal was the main ingredient, so I guess there wasn't enough to do anything else. It's pork belly. You just have to grill it. That's why they've made pork belly and other side dishes."
"Well...... I guess you thought of something similar to me."
"Yes, because we thought we'd leave the braised short ribs and eat it with him.”
"That'sir.
"It tastes good, but......there's no reason to go to a pork belly restaurant and eat it."
"As long as it tastes...….”
"It's a place with a lot of clams, so if you go to the night market, there are many places that sell grilled clams, steamed clams, and clam soup."
"Ah...... you don't have to eat it at a pork belly restaurant.”
"And clam soup is a menu that can be copied quickly."
Jong-seok nodded at Kang Sung-soo. And... ...no effect of complementing each other's ascension.
Spicy braised short ribs taste better with soup, and the soup also has spicy braised short ribs, so the greasiness disappears.
But pork belly and steamed clamsul jjim...... well, I don't know because I haven't tried it, but......I don't know right now.
And that evening Jong-suk was watching videos and materials sent from China with Kang Sung-soo.
In the video, there was also eating at a nearby pork belly restaurant. Jong-seok, who was watching the video, told Kang Sung-soo.
"There's a convenience store there, right?"”
"Convenience store?"
"As I did, tell him to try some of his favorite menus."
"Okay."
While watching the video, Jong-seok was able to see videos of convenience store menus and various ingredients from China.
And I saw a big bag of them. When I opened the bag, there was a lot of seed in it.
"What is this?”
"The dried sunflower seeds. It's like a snack that you can season and fry or eat.”
"Mr. Sunflower?"
"Chinese kids eat a lot of peanuts and this kind of seed as snacks.”
"The peanut seed... ....”
Jong-seok, who had been thinking for a while, called Ianna.
[Why.]
It was still the brusque voice of Ianna. But I felt a little depressed.
"Try to call me brother."
[What? Are you crazy?]]
"Oppa, if you do, I'll give you a hint for your brother.”
[What Hin...... did you hear?]]
"Yes. You try it.”
[Shutting off.]
And Jong-seok laughed at Lee Anna's behavior of hanging up the phone.
"Did I make fun of you too much?”
When I called again, after a long wait, Ianna answered the phone.
[If you tease me, I'll hang up again.]
"Okay, why don't you make some ssamjang?"
[I've already done it.]
"Really?"
[Of course, ssamjang is a must-have item for samgyeopsal, and you wouldn't have thought of it. That's the hint.….]
"Peanuts, sunflowers, walnuts, and so on."
[That's...
Ianna shut her mouth.
I'm sure you'll take care of it, but...Can I tell you one more thing?’
If Ianna opens a hole that she can cook, she will pierce the hole on her own.
"Ssamjang. Then work hard."
Jong-seok hung up without listening to Ianna's voice. Then Jong-seok said, looking at Kang Sung-soo, who is still watching the video in his bed.
"You can stop watching now.”
"Huh? Why?"
"I just spoke to Anna."
"What is it? What have you found?”
"I found it, so I called. Then I'll go in and rest."
"What is it? Talk to me and go."
“Look at that time would you go to edit to death when you anyway.”
Then Jong-seok went into the room as if he were really tired and fell on the bed.
'Oh! I'm tired.'
The next morning, Jong-seok, who was heading to a second snack bar, received a text message.
It was only three letters, but Jong-seok had no choice but to laugh.
How much did he think about sending this text message?’
I can't help but laugh at the thought of Lee Anna, who would have sent a text message after thinking about it for a long time.
Jong-seok, who was there for a while, texted him.
Jong-seok smiled at Lee Anna's reply and put his cell phone in his pocket.
***
On Saturday morning, 119 food rescue workers gathered at the airport to go to South Korea after finishing filming.
"But can you be alone?”
Jong-seok nodded at Kang Sung-soo.
"It's my first time being a foreigner, so can I just work and go?"
"I'm worried... ... Do you want a staff member?”
The staff's eyes glistened at Kang Sung-soo's words.
'If you stay with Jong-seok, you can hang out.’
'Two... ...a dreamlike break.’
And so did the female staff. Writers and producers all looked at Jong-seok.
That you're traveling to Japan alone with a man? I wasn't nervous at all.
The stalactites they know are not beasts that change because they are alone with women.
Of course it is something that has not been heard from wolves deep in Jong-seok's heart.
Unlike the eyes of such staff, however, Jong-seok shook his head.
"I'm not a kid, and I can play for two days. So don't worry."
"But I'm still worried...….”
"I..."
Jong-seok moved slightly, holding a martial arts posture.
"I'm good at martial arts."
"Is this a time when all the fighting goes well?"
"Well, it'll help."
Kang Sung-soo, who shook his head small at Jong-seok's horse, took the money out of his pocket.
"Because this is the yen left over. Eat well and sleep in a good place."
"Thank you."
Looking at Jong-seok receiving money with a smile, Kang Sung-soo took out some business cards from his wallet.
"This is our station's business card here, this is the Korean Embassy, and this is our local business number. Call me wherever you need help."
"Thank you."
"Then where are you going?”
"I'm going to a couple of nearby museums today. I'm going to go to a famous restaurant and eat some rice.”
"What about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow I'll be on my way and on time for my flight.”
Kang Sung-soo, who nodded at Jong-seok's words, said.
"Then you really have to be careful. Call me right away if you have work."
"Yes!"
Looking at Jong-seok giving a brave answer, Kang Sung-soo nodded and moved to board the plane with the staff.
