(Episode 32)
Bo Ra!
Ms. Kim, you left your script.
Why do you look so shocked?
She must've heard our conversation.
What's with her face though?
She doesn't have feelings for you, does she?
I'm warning you.
Don't you mention our past ever again.
You got that?
Did something happen? What's with your face?
Jun Soo and Producer Um must've been going out in the past.
How did you know that?
What? You knew?
I heard them talking the other day.
What about you?
I just heard them now.
So it was Producer Um who he went out with in the US.
I'm so disappointed in Jun Soo.
I was surprised when I heard it at first too.
He has no eyes for women.
How could he date a woman like her?
We have a live show soon, so control yourself.
Relax, all right?
It's 20 seconds before the show.
The last commercial will air now.
Stand by.
Que!
Hello, I'm Weather Fairy Kim Bo Ra...
who will be the host for "Marketaurant."
"Marketaurant" is a program created...
to make a hearty meal that is medicinal when eaten.
The two teams will compete against one another...
with recipes that match the theme of the battle.
Before I introduce you to the teammates,
I'll introduce you to the reviewers who will evaluate the taste...
with their sharp tongues.
Hello, I'm Tae Jin Ah, a gourmet in the trotting world.
I'm Big Mama Lee Hye Jung,
a culinary researcher who finds the true taste of life in food.
Hello, I'm the once emperor of the restaurant industry,
now just an emperor who has a picky tastebud.
I'm the gourmet Hong Seok Cheon.
I'll be looking forward to the fail-proof recipes.
Wow, we even have prominent reviewers.
Now, I'll introduce you to the people who'll be competing today.
First, it's CEO Na Jun Soo and Chef Emma Cho...
of the Noble Table Team, who presented a new paradigm...
in the distribution of local ingredients.
Hello, I'm Na Jun Soo of the Noble Table Team.
"Leave your drugs in the chemist's pot..."
"if you can cure the patient with food."
It's a quote I love dearly.
Today, we're going to show you a small luxurious dining table...
that not only tastes great and nutritious but pleases the eyes.
Right. Seeing how determined you are make me look forward to it.
The following is CEO Kang Dae Ro of Commoner's Table Team,
who is a hot issue on YouTube for his cooking show...
that uses ungradable produce as ingredients.
The most common thing is the most Korean.
Hello, I'm Kang Dae Ro of Commoner's Table Team.
We will show you the essence of natural food table...
full of energy from nature.
We can do this!
You are now watching the DBS recipe battle show "Marketaurant."
You'll be watching the Noble Table Team...
and Commoner's Table Team compete with each other live.
For the text voting, you can send it to the number below in subtitles...
by selecting number 1 for Noble and 2 for Commoner's Table.
Every one of your valuable opinions...
Aren't they the one who got into an accident with me?
We look forward to your participation.
They are!
Are they the ones that made you go nuts?
Goodness me, I can't believe I'm seeing them like this.
The broth from the croaker bones is bubbling out nicely.
Risotto nero?
I've never seen him cook before.
- Oh, my. - Then...
let's season it with salt.
Pepper!
Why is Emma Cho so funny? Oh, my gosh.
It's Uncle Dae Ro!
Oh, my. They must have shot that at Dad's house.
It's been a while since I've seen Mom's kitchen.
Everything looks the same.
Whatever people say, Koreans love Korean food the best.
I'm going to vote for Dae Ro.
Here. Byeo Ri, Hae Shim, you guys should vote as well.
Geum Sook insisted that I should vote for Jun Soo.
Did she? Then you should vote for Jun Soo.
It's Ms. Han!
The sous chef of Daechan Brothers'...
Do you know that old lady?
Pardon?
I do. She came to the flower shop.
I bumped into her in the neighborhood and we got close.
That's right.
It's the old lady who came and left without buying anything.
Really?
Dae Ro's sous chef is her.
I saw her when I dropped off Chan Sung at Father's house.
But she looked very familiar.
Then Ms. Han and Dae Ro are both living in Mr. Lee's house.
They must be.
Finished.
Was Commoner's Table number two?
Are you going to vote number two?
I don't like seeing them, but I'm a huge fan of the old lady.
I thought you're rooting for Sun Han and Na Jun Soo.
You should be voting for Jun Soo then.
I shouldn't mix business with pleasure.
Also, I really crave Korean food these days.
Did you enjoy the two teams' video clips?
The dish prepared by the Noble Table Team...
is risotto nero with truffles.
The dish prepared by the Commoner's Table Team...
is spicy sandfish stew, radish rice, and burdock kimchi.
Then we'll first taste risotto nero with truffles.
(Cooking Masters' Recipe Battle)
I don't think we can tell the results by the reviewers' faces.
Noble Table Team, I'll give you time to promote your dish one last time.
As this topic is detoxification,
we came up with black food as our concept.
Anthocyanins in squid ink...
are said to be effective in preventing adult diseases,
antioxidants, and anti-cancer effects.
And since risotto uses rice, the staple food of Koreans,
it will suit your palate.
I especially used croaker broth as a base.
It's unusual that you used fish stock to make risotto.
Next, they'll try the dish of Commoner's Table Team.
We will also give you time to promote your dish as well.
You would've heard that a natural diet...
can eliminate toxins and boosts immunity, haven't you?
Among them, seasonal food is both a remedy and a preventive drug.
We cooked spicy stew with sandfish and mushrooms...
and created a fantastic combination with radish rice.
When the cold wind blows
You know that radish is eaten when cold wind blows...
are as good for you as wild ginseng, right?
In November, when sandfish is preparing for spawning,
the meat is fatty and succulent. You have no idea how tasty this is.
Right.
Then it's time to hear the reviewers' evaluation.
Mr. Hong Seok Cheon.
How did you find risotto nero with truffles?
First of all, risotto nero tastes very savory.
And it's a taste that breaks...
the preconceptions about black food.
Finally, the colorful herbal flower decorations were great.
The Noble Table Team's risotto nero with truffles.
I'm wondering what kind of evaluation...
Culinary Researcher Lee Hye Jung would give.
The rice of the risotto is very glossy and grainy.
Also, it's refreshing and rich.
You have no idea how tasty this is.
Gosh, what do you mean tasty?
It looks burnt. I bet it tastes as dark as it looks too.
It's as dark as charcoal. It can't be that great.
In weather like this, spicy and warm soup...
is best for Koreans.
Of course, that's how Dae Ro's dishes taste like.
The sandfish roe bursts with flavor.
It's like fireworks in my mouth.
He's a singer who sings tastefully.
He's also good with his words. It's warm and flawless.
He would've tasted so many delicious foods...
while going around the country to sing.
He surely knows how to taste the food.
Shall we have a glass of wild ginseng wine?
What?
Now let's look at the result of the reviewers' vote.
The reviewers can raise the name of the team you have selected.
In 1, 2, 3!
(Noble Table Team)
(Commoner's Table Team)
(Noble Table Team)
The reviewers voted 2 to 1, and the Noble Table Team won.
Now then, the viewers' vote will be closed in five seconds.
Five, four, three,
two, one.
We have closed the viewer votes.
Now, let's add up the viewer votes,
and announce the final winner.
The winner is...
Commoner's Table Team! Congratulations!
We won!
Congratulations!
Uncle Dae Ro's team won, Mr. Shin!
They did!
Dae Ro did quite the job!
Good. Very good.
Geez. Are you that happy?
Of course!
Dae Ro and Chan Sung try really hard.
People who live so diligently should be properly rewarded.
Well, good for them.
Geum Sook must be torn to pieces.
Good job, everyone.
- Good job. - Thank you.
- Good job. - You all did a fantastic job.
Thank you all for your hard work.
We'll get the ratings tomorrow,
but I think our live show went very well.
Mr. Kang, congratulations.
Thank you.
You all worked hard today. You should get a meal together.
Here you go, Producer Um.
Get something delicious.
The company card! Thank you, Boss.
Good job.
Dae Ro, congratulations.
Thank you.
You were really good at hosting too.
Thanks.
You really are a professional.
In honor of our successful live show,
let's give a toast.
To the successful ratings of "Marketaurant"!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
Bo Ra, you put down your glass as is.
Are you a lightweight?
No, she drinks well.
She has a surprising charm.
How do you know that, Mr. Kang?
Do you drink together?
You must be closer than I thought.
I have a show early in the morning tomorrow, so I have to go.
- Thank you for today. - Okay.
Bo Ra.
We need to talk.
Talk?
Talk about what? I have nothing to say to you.
I...
know you heard Producer Um talking.
That's why I didn't want to come on this show.
But an investor asked me to, so I didn't really have a choice.
The girlfriend you dated for a long time in the US...
was Producer Um? Is that true?
It is.
But I'm completely over her.
It was a long time ago.
Producer Um didn't sound like she had put things behind her.
Of course, it's none of my business.
It's not like we're dating. Right?
What?
I didn't know I'd run into her here.
I'm uncomfortable and displeased beyond words,
but the program's over, so I won't be seeing her again.
There's no need to explain.
I need to go.
Bo Ra.
We should drink on a day like this.
Cheers.
You're quite the drinker.
Shall we mix it up this time?
Producer Um, you worked hard today. Please let me pour you a glass.
Oh, it was nothing.
I think your decision to film again was a great move.
It was.
Thanks to Mr. Lee and Ms. Han, we got some good footage.
That old lady is hilarious!
My aunt is a really big fan of hers as well.
- Is she? - Yes!
One moment.
Good work today.
If we get a regular spot, will you go against Mr. Kang...
to recover your honor?
- Let me pour you a glass. - No thank you.
Don't.
Give it to me. My glass is empty.
Okay.
See, Ms. Shin?
It's good you did as I said.
You would be jobless now if you hadn't.
Why would I be jobless?
I could have chosen a hundred other programs!
This was my show plan.
If I didn't work on it here, I would have somewhere else.
Ms. Shin, you're wrong about that.
How could you say this show is yours?
I gave you the idea.
I gave you the casting sources.
If we're being truthful,
you could say I might as well have written the plans.
You didn't write the plans, Producer Um!
I'm the one who stayed up all night to write them!
I was already planning a cooking show.
If it weren't for me,
do you think you could have had this programmed so quickly?
How can you have no conscience?
Ms. Shin, you're being too ungrateful!
What? Ungrateful?
Wow, Vampiress is at it again.
Vampiress?
She called me Vampiress again.
Do you really want to do this?
We're really over now.
If I work with you again,
I really am Shin Ah Ri-diculous!
What's with you two?
Producer Um, Ms. Shin!
You take the fun out of drinking.
I'm leaving.
Look at her.
Emma, I'm heading out. Have fun.
- Okay. - Goodbye.
Jun Soo, where are you going?
Get off.
Are you all right?
The shimmer in your eyes
What are you trying to say?
I don't get it yet
It's past midnight.
It's Mom's 49th day after death.
Are you going to sleep on the street again?
You really should go home to sleep.
What do you mean, sleep?
With all the leaves falling, it's the perfect day to drink.
Do you want to get another drink?
You seem quite drunk. Go home.
Your kid must be waiting for you.
Kid?
My sister, Byeo Ri?
She's all grown up now, so it's okay.
The child she was raising was her sister?
I'm not drunk at all.
Can't we have just one more drink?
You owe me one, remember?
What do I owe you?
You can't buy the person who saved your life a drink?
That's really stubborn of you.
Fine, let's go.
But this is me paying you back...
for saving me, all right?
Okay. Debt paid!
This place is epic. The view is fantastic!
I've never had drinks at such a height.
You're really on another level.
Cheers.
- The wine tastes sick! - Gosh...
Can you please keep your voice down?
I'm not deaf.
Okay.
Can I have another glass?
Wine tastes especially good today.
I almost lost my mind because of Producer Um earlier today.
That Vampiress is talented in getting on others' nerves.
Tell me about it.
But I wonder how you happened...
to have dated Producer Um in the past.
I rarely express my feelings.
But on the other hand, she had a liberal spirit,
which I found charming back then.
But as time goes by,
I could no longer handle her.
I think I know what you mean.
That's the worst part of her.
She's so spoiled...
and stubborn.
She seriously was the source of all my stresses.
She's so selfish. And she's never considerate of others...
At all!
So you do know that too, CEO Na!
Now I feel much better.
Then, cheers!
Just stop calling me CEO Na.
We should talk casually to each other!
Ah Ri.
Sure, Jun Soo.
Did you get home, Ms. Kim?
I really wanted to have a drink to celebrate my victory.
What a shame.
Make sure you treat me to a drink later.
Good night.
Who are you texting to? Is it Ms. Kim?
She did read it, but I get no reply.
This is for my mom.
Your mom?
Actually,
today is the 49th day since she died.
Your mother passed away?
You know...
you called me "No Conscience"...
when I had to compensate for the damage...
but you couldn't reach me.
That's when I was at my mom's funeral.
I see.
I never knew it.
So I misunderstood you.
I'm sorry.
Don't be. You didn't know it.
To be honest, I hated my mom so much.
But after she's gone,
the resentment deep in my heart disappeared,
leaving me with a big empty space in my heart.
Can you even imagine how I would've felt?
I can.
I also have been...
awfully sorrowful and lonely before.
When I was little, I was once locked up somewhere.
"What if no one comes to rescue me?"
"Will I be abandoned for good?"
I know the fear of being left alone.
That's right.
That terrifying feeling.
But...
looking at you now,
I feel sorry for you.
Do you?
I also feel sorry for you.
- Sir. - Yes?
I'm afraid that it will be closed soon.
- Is that so? - Yes.
I should drink up the rest.
Drink it. What's the matter?
Cheers.
How come he's still not home until this hour?
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
And the phone is off.
Bo Ra, Ah Ri isn't home yet.
She doesn't answer her phone either.
I guess she's still drinking.
She sometimes drinks until the dawn, saying it helps relieve a hangover.
She's unbelievable.
I refrained from nagging at her, and now she does it again.
Don't worry too much.
She would've called you already if she'd got in trouble.
Byeo Ri, get me some water.
Byeo Ri.
(No Matter What)
Why am I here?
What had gotten into me to have gone to the hotel?
She must've been heavily drunk.
Ms. Han, my mom looks beautiful, doesn't she?
Is there someone else with the same name?
Where have you been?
Well...
We went to see my mom at the ossuary.
No.
Such a coincidence cannot happen.
