After filming, Jong-seok returned to the hotel with Lee Soo-mi and the adults.
And Jong-seok was asking the hotel staff for some favors.
"Can I borrow your fishing rod tomorrow?"
"The fishing rod is not in our hotel."
"Ah! So, is there any place around here to get a fishing rod..."
"There's a village about three hours by car."
"Three hours." ...okay."
Jong-seok nodded at the news that he had to go out for three hours to buy a fishing rod.
'There's some bamboo trees, so... should we make a fishing rod out of bamboo?'
There was a bamboo forest around the hotel. I don't know if I can cut it, but if I say yes, I could cut it and connect it with thread to make a fishing rod.
And I think it's got its own beauty.
Jong-seok, who was thinking of that, hurriedly told the employee on his way.
"Well, can I use the kitchen?"
"The kitchen?"
"I'd like to cook something, please."
An employee who was briefly at Chong-suk's words opened his mouth.
"The kitchen is very busy because it's mealtime right now. I'll talk to the kitchen first, but it'll be difficult."
Jong-seok nodded at the employee's words. This was natural, regardless of kindness and unkindness.
The kitchen at mealtime is a battlefield. It was ridiculous for a foreigner to walk around at such a mealtime.
So the refusal was a matter of course.
"Ah...... then will it be over during mealtime?"
"I'll talk to you."
Jong-seok, who nodded at the employee's words, went up to the senior level.
Jong-seok told adults about his schedule while taking a shower.
"I heard Mr. Kim is cooking, but if you're not hungry, could you wait a little longer?"
Of course, adults answered that they were waiting. You can eat the food that Mr. Kim cooks for you.
"Of course I'll wait to eat the food that Su-su Kim cooks for me."
"You're going to eat all the dishes of Kim Sook-soo in China that you can't eat easily even in Korea."
Although the adults of Munbangwoo are regular customers of the transport boat, it is not easy to eat the food of Kim Sook-soo.
Once basically, Kim Sook-soo retired from the transport boat, and his son, Kim Ho-young, manages all the food as a total water, so he doesn't cook for the guests.
So it's nice to see you. ...
Anyway, I talked to the adults, and in case I was hungry, Jong-seok bought some fruits and put them in each room.
Jong-seok stood at the entrance to the kitchen with Kim Sook-soo. I'm waiting for the news that I can use the kitchen soon.
"Have you ever cooked in a Chinese kitchen?"
"I've done it at a regular home, not in a hotel like this."
"I see. Unlike Korean kitchens, Chinese kitchens use a lot of firepower and wide woks."
In addition, Mr. Kim told me the difference between a Chinese kitchen and a Korean kitchen.
Then a young cook who showed his face full of annoyance opened the door and came out.
It's time for him to finish his work and rest, but it's annoying when the two of them come and say they'll cook.
"Are they going to use the kitchen?"
"Yes"
"Come in."
Inside the kitchen, we could see ten or so chefs cleaning up the kitchen.
When I saw those chefs, the cook who guided Jong-seok pointed to Wok on one side.
"How many woks are you going to use?"
"Two, please.
"Then use these two woks, and do you need spices and ingredients?"
"Yes"
At Jong-seok's words, the cook informed me of the ingredients refrigerator and the seasoning containers on one side of the kitchen.
Then the cook said,
"If you need anything, please let me know... ...and make it clean."
"Okay."
When Jong-seok, who answered with a smile, washed the vegetables with water, Su-su Kim put water on the wok with his skillful hands and turned on the light.
Then, slightly dissolve the salt in the saucepan, take the knife, and start trimming the vegetables washed by Jong-seok.
The cook who was watching from the side nodded to see if the two were in trouble or not.
I heard you're Korean. You're good at handling equipment.
Even if you are Chinese, the equipment in the Chinese kitchen is not easy to handle.
Unlike ordinary households, the fire is strong and the valves that control the fire are installed differently in each kitchen.
And here in the hotel, the valve is located at the foot, so you can control the fire by pressing and removing it.
But even though he didn't tell me, Kim knows how to control the gas, presses and releases the gas control valve, and controls the fire by himself.
When the cook saw it, Kim Sook-soo took the spices and mixed them to make the sauce.
Sweep! Sweep!
Mix the seasoning, slice the scallions, mash the garlic... ...and begin to smell delicious to make the usual sauce.
'Sprice looks delicious...... is it Korean style?'
The ingredients for the seasoning were Chinese, but the method of manufacturing was a little different from that of China.
The chef, who had improved his appetite, approached and said,
"Give me some sauce..."
"Do it."
The cook dipped the sauce in Mr. Kim's words with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.
And...
'It's delicious.
It tasted good even though it didn't contain anything special. Especially the taste that sticks to your mouth... ...
It would be good if you mixed it with plain rice.
Whatever I rubbed in this sauce or dipped it in it would taste good.
When I thought of that, Kim Sook-soo put the vegetables Jong-seok brought me in hot water and whipped them out a few times.
Then Su-su Kim, who had been shaking off the water several times, offered vegetables to the cook.
The cook picked up a little vegetable and dipped it in the sauce and put it in his mouth.
"Delicious"
I only ate plain vegetables dipped in sauce, but it tasted so good.
Especially, the boiling of vegetables was perfect. It was boiled in such a state that it was not soft, but crispy and fragrant.
When the surprised cook saw Su-su Kim, he smiled and began to cook other dishes.
And I began to see Kim's hand movements as if the cook had spilled them.
"Cooking... ...very good."
From handling knives to preparing fire and ingredients... from the chef's point of view, Kim's skill was really great.
The adults of the Moonbangwoo said surprisedly at the ducks in one room of the restaurant.
"Did Master Kim do all this?"
Kim said with a smile at the elders' words of laughter.
"I did it with Jong-seok. Don't stand there like that. Eat your food when it's warm."
When the adults sat down at Mr. Kim's words, Jong-seok took out a pack of soju from his bag and poured me a glass each.
Then asked the principal, who was taking turns drinking.
"But you said you'd like some vegetables, but the ingredients are too big. Abalone, a carp, is this a turtle?"
I laughed at the principal's words.
"The cook here is kind."
"Really?"
"It was easy to cook because I brought ingredients for this and that. Here's some valuable ingredients like carp, abalone, and zara that he brought to use."
"You're a friendly person. Did you say thank you?"
"Yes, I've given them some food."
At Jong-seok's words, the principal nodded as if he had done a good job.
And at that time, in the hotel kitchen, chefs were seriously discussing the food Kim made and left behind.
"I think it's flavored with the bean paste.Why does it taste like this?"
"Try this. I only put a little salt and sugar, and the sauce tastes like this in the sauce."
"How does a abalone taste like this?"
"It's made by grinding the entrails of abalone and making sauce."
It was really incredible food for chefs. It was a heaven of taste made of really simple spices.
And the chefs tasted it and began to seriously discuss how to make the food.
***
Jong-seok, who was eating the food made by Kim Sook-soo, got up from his seat when he saw the phone ringing.
"What's wrong?"
"I got a phone call from my wife."
"My wife? Did Mr. Lee have a brother?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no.
Jong-seok, who lowered his head, held up his cell phone and came out of the room to answer the phone.
"My wife."
[How are you?]]
The woman's voice over the cell phone was soft and gentle. The person who called now was Im Bingbing, the wife of Jin Yang-woo.
And Jong-seok's face, which received Im Bingbing's phone call, was very tense.
"I've been well. How have you been, sister-in-law doing?"
[It's me, I'm fine as long as my husband doesn't get in trouble.
"Ah... yes."
[But I heard you're in China now?]
"Yes"
[I'm sad. I told you to call me when you come to China...]
"I couldn't contact you because I was traveling with the elders I was close to."
[Let's keep in touch with my husband... ...and get along with me]
"Okay."
[I think we'll be there in about 30 minutes...]
Jong-seok's face hardened at Lim Bing-bing's words.
"You're coming here?"
One of our butlers said he was going there, so I asked him to come with me. It's been a long time since I saw him and drank. Is that okay?]
"Of course I'm fine."
[Okay, see you when we get there]
Jong-seok looked at his cell phone when the phone was cut off with it.
Im Bingbing was a beautiful and wise good woman. And now he's retired, but he has a powerful member of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China as his father.
The Communist Party had about ten members of the Standing Committee, so I could see its power.
It was possible that Jin Yang-woo was able to accumulate his current wealth through the power of his father-in-law.
And Jong-seok also liked Jin Yang-woo's wife. He was nice to himself and a good man.
The only reason I'm nervous is because I know about Jin Yang-woo's relationship.
Should I call it a white lie? It's a little uncomfortable to know Jin Yang-woo's relationship with her sister-in-law Lim Bingbing because she can't talk to her and should hide it.
And he was the godfather of Jin Yang-woo's extramarital child.
That's why Jin Yang-woo's wife calls and gets nervous.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Jong-seok, who was looking at his cell phone for a while, called Jin Yang-woo and told him that his brother-in-law was coming here.
[He tried to send one of the butlers, but he must have known it. But I'm going to see my wife because she likes you, so don't be too uncomfortable and just let her drool.
"That's not a problem... ...is it okay with the girl problem?"
[Woman problem...] Isn't it always a woman to a hero? I believe in you.
When I hung up the phone saying I don't know what I believe, Jong-seok sighed and looked at his cell phone.
You shouldn't believe this.
Jong-seok, who sighed, roughly ate with the elders and called Lee Soo-mi.
Lee Soo-mi has seen Jin Yang-woo's wife several times, so she wants to meet him.
Jong-seok and Lee Soo-mi were at the entrance of the hotel. Lee Soo-mi looked excited.
"You look happy."
"I'm definitely happy to see Bingbing."
"I haven't seen you a few times. You must be close."
"How many times? What... ...I've seen you and Bingbing a lot in China."
"Really?"
When I saw Lee Soo-mi as if I was wondering about Jong-seok, she said,
"I slept at your house, went shopping, and went to good restaurants. It was fun."
"You've seen me often."
"My brother-in-law goes on a lot of business trips abroad, so she's bored. So we saw each other often and played together."
"You don't have a lot of friends in your wife's family?"
"I do, but... they don't like it because they're people who get paid."
When the two were talking, there was a busy movement near the parking lot.
Cars were emptying the parking lot one after another as they came out of the parking lot.
"What's wrong with the cars at night?"
Lee Soo-mi looked at Jong-seok's words and said,
"You must be coming by helicopter."
"Helter?"
"When you're going a little far away, take a helicopter."
At Lee Soo-mi's words, Jong-seok looked at the parking lot.
"As expected, a house of its own has a different class of private use."
When Jong-seok thought of it, cars in the corner of the parking lot started turning on the lights.
That's how it lights the middle of the parking lot. And after a while, I began to hear a helicopter flying in from afar.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!
The helicopter, which appeared with the sound of a propeller turning around, began to slowly descend over the parking lot.
Lee Soo-mi caught Jong-seok as he tried to approach a helicopter that landed with strong winds.
"Wait"
"Why? I'll meet my wife."
"I don't like dust, so I'm going to stop your propeller."
Jong-seok nodded and waited at Lee Soo-mi's words. And as Lee Soo-mi said, the helicopter's propeller stopped and the dust settled, and the helicopter door began to open.
And through the open door a beautiful woman appeared. The woman in a black suit looked around with sharp eyes.
Then she pulled the footrest out of the helicopter and put it down, and only then did the middle-aged lady begin to step down.
She was the wife of Im Bingbing and Jin Yang-woo.
Sweep!
With soft eyes, Im Bingbing waved at the stalactites.
"My wife."
Jong-seok and Lee Soo-mi approached her with a smile.
