"Should we wait, or go somewhere else?" "I'm hungry." "Let's just go." "But..." "Let's wait a bit." "This place looks good." "Bro!" "You were so good to me when we were at Woonam-jung." "Bong-ju hit me all the time, so I finally left." "Luckily, I met her, started this, and made some money." "That's great." "I wanted to be just like you." "You punk..." "Why don't we start over?" "It was awesome watching you cook." "You know how many customers I have?" "I'm king of the produce business." "Yeah, right." "OK, drop the chit chat." "I'll bring veggies from tomorrow." "Of course!"

"Overseeing the kitchen here means you're the greatest." "Thanks, but no thanks." "You're not hatching any crazy ideas, are you?" "You want to enter the contest and parade around on TV?" "Keep your dignity as a chef." "I never did anything undignified." "Didn't you leave that poison in on purpose?" "You wanted this place so badly, you even put people's lives at stake."

"I'll prove that I'm the best." "You're making a grave mistake." "It was your mistake to call me out here." "Arrest me!" "Please!" "Grandpa!" "I killed someone!" "The old man's so strong." "Your gramps is at it again." "I'm sorry this keeps happening." "He ate noodles with us." "Take him home." "Thank you, sir." "Please forgive me." "I killed someone." "Okay grandpa, it's okay." "Sung-chan is entering the cooking competition." "He's really something." "I should go and support him as the town rep." "Go, and you're dead." "There's a pile of work in the fields!"

"The chefs may select pheasant, duck, or chicken to showcase their talents." "Let the contest begin!" "He chose the pheasant." "Woonam-jung chose the chicken." "In the Chosun Dynasty, they kept hawks to catch pheasants." "That's how precious they considered pheasant." "The white meat and yellow yoke of the eggs in perfect harmony." "The mother and her baby chick are dancing around in my mouth." "The yang of the chicken is blended with the yin of the egg." "This is more than just food." "Well done, Chef OH." "Woonam-jung!" "We almost died because of you." "Do you think you have the right to compete here?" "I want to start over." "Please give me a chance." "You've got some nerve." "Well, let's have a taste." "Yeah!"

"Give me the herring!" "Hey..." "I don't get it." "He's getting worse and worse." "Did you see my idiot husband?" "He was here earlier, but he left to do some work." "Wait 'till I get my hands on him!" "What's that doing on the floor?" "Was it gramps?" "He asked for a herring body, but he says that's not it." "Maybe he means taro shoots." "Taro shoots?" "My grandpa loved taro." "He used to call it herring." "Maybe he wants taro shoots?" "Maybe that's it!" "Anyway, if you see him, tell him to get home while he can." "When will he ever smarten up?" "Wait!" "Get over here, you!" "Sung-chan!" "How could you sell me off like that?" "You would've been caught eventually." "But she hits hard!" "You don't understand what it's like to be beaten by wife!" "How'd you escape this time?" "The door was locked, so I broke through a window." "What are you, a fugitive or something?" "Just about!" "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "Didn't see you." "Descendant of the Royal Chef... 2nd Round" " Fish" "We announce the ingredients for the second round!"

"Are you out of your mind?" "The same thing twice?" "I refuse to eat this." "Please, just one small taste." "5 Years Earlier If you want this place so much, then beat him!" "I'm your grandson!" "This place belongs to me!" "Why should I compete when it's already mine?" "Beat him." "If you don't want to live your life in regret, like me..." "You must beat him." "If you're all done, let's go get changed!" "Wow." "Let's go." "He cannot be disqualified without someone testing his dish." "But he leaves poison in his blowfish!" "He's an incompetent chef who endangers people's lives." "There's no proof that he left in the poison deliberately." "Maybe not, but I still can't trust him!" "You know how precisely the blowfish must be prepared?" "People's lives are at stake here!" "Contest rules?" "Wait!" "Someone should still taste it." "What!" "But who would eat this?" "Yeah, who would eat that?" "If I taste it and I am fine, you'll all try it, right?" "What's the big deal?" "Look at her!" "Why did she eat?" "I knew that." " Go ahead and try it." " Taste it." "You should've seen it!" "The judges gobbled it up." "They were weeping in joy!" "Sung-chan is amazing!" "You really gotta respect the guy." "You're pretty amazing, yourself." "Ah... really?" "Why?" "How'd you ever make it through this hole?" "Sergeant KOO!" "I used to get beat a lot back in the army." "Remember when I got beat badly and you secretly cooked ramen for me?" "I can't forget the taste." "But no matter how I try, I can't get it right." "Please." "Tell me the secret." "You're kidding me, right?" "Stop laughing." "I'm serious." "I can't explain it in words..." "Sergeant KOO!" "Please!" "Crazy fools." "Stop joking around and go home, mister." "He's got fields to plow." "Go on!" "Get to work!" " Corporal WOO?" " Yes?" "You got some time?" "Sorry, the tractor always breaks down and I can't keep borrowing the cow." "No problem." "Just tell me the secret." "Left..." "left..." "That's good." "Now... right!" "He's digging himself a hole, that fool." "Look man..." "The truth is..." "Cooking class will be delayed due to rain." "What?" "Do you know why ramen noodles are twisted?" "No." "Go home and think about why." "The secret to the ramen is close by." "To cook the best fish soup, you must choose the right fish." "80% of a food's taste depends on the ingredients." "This one has clean scales and is fresh." "Caught by fly fishing, this is the best fish for a clear soup." "Well done." "This is a cheap fish you can buy in a country market." "The gills are ripped and the scales are falling off." "You can't make great meals with this sort of trash." "What the...?" "Excuse me..." "But isn't that a waste?" "It can still be made into something good, can't it?" "What do you think you're doing?" "Cut the filming." "This is Woonam-jung." "The country's top quality restaurant!" "But it's so expensive, how can ordinary people eat there?" "Eat something cheap, then." "What?" "Wrap this in newspaper for her." "It takes more than great ingredients to make the best food!" "What an idiot..." "I got it!" "I know why ramen noodles are twisted!" "Don't follow me into the toilet!" "It's because our lives are full of twists and turns, right?" "And our exhausted lives are contained in the spicy broth." "So what!" "You're right." "The secret was close by!" "Get lost and let me poop, man!" "If I want to recover that old taste, I have to go back." "Beat me." "Just like they did in the army." "I'll do anything to taste the ramen from back then." "Please, beat me hard!" "Come on!" "I'm begging you!" "Need to taste the ramen like it was back then!" "This is crazy, man." "I'm ready." "Here." "Does it taste the same?" "What?" "Is it that good?" "It's hot." "This is not it."

"We went through all the major markets." " Let's go eat." " Man..." "I wish I could see in your head." "What is your perfect cow?" "A cow to your standards doesn't exist." "You want something that doesn't exist!" "This is why you couldn't find the right cow." "Why the heck did we trek all across the country?" "This is the best cow there is, man!" "Shut up." "What did you feed her?" "Let's use this one." " Stop it." " This is great!" "What?" "It's perfect!" "What?" "Why?" "That's not a cow." "What?" "Is it a pig?" "That's Sung-chan's baby sister." "He raised her from birth like family." "Could you slaughter your own sister?" "How can he?" "But it's just an animal." "But to Sung-chan..." "Just drop it!" "Or else!" "Don't bring it up again!" "Got that?" "It's the brackens rain." "When this rain falls, the boat out to sea can't return." "When the brackens rain falls, it's time to say goodbye."

"We raised it all so dearly." "It's nothing but a piece of meat." "A good chef doesn't get attached to the ingredients!" "How can I butcher something I like so much?" "Why you!"

"What the hell are you doing?" "It's a hemorrhage" "What!" "It can't be!" "We have a correction to make." "A hemorrhage has been found in Chef OH's beef, so it is disqualified." " Alright!" " Sung-chan!" "What are you talking about?" "You made a big mistake while transporting the cow." "What the hell do you know?" "Cows are very sensitive animals." "If they get stressed, hemorrhages will form." "Damn it!" "Since we have a tie, another competition will decide the winner." "Details on the final competition will be given later." "I knew the Royal Chef's line of descent was broken, but I had no idea his grave was so neglected." "It's shameful." "But 'cuz he stood against Japan, his grave would be left neglected." "I'm very sorry." "My apologies..." "Do you know how the Royal Chef died?" "The last Royal Chef had two apprentices." "But I heard that one of the two poisoned the Royal Chef." "Poisoned him?" "Perhaps solving the mystery behind his death will determine his true successor." "Mister?" "I have a question to ask you." "Wait!" "Please!" "What do you want to know?" "I heard you've been here a long time." "Do you know who killed the Royal Chef?" "Which apprentice killed him?" "Sung-hyun did." "Sung-chan's grandfather." "Why did he do that?" "Say it again." "Who killed the Royal Chef?" "Say it again!" "Now!" "When King Soon-jong lost Chosun, he stopped eating in sorrow for his people." "Then one day, the honorable Royal Chef made and offered up a bowl of beef soup for his king." "And to his surprise, the bowl came back empty." "According to the court subjects, King Soon-jong cried as he ate it." "What soup was it that it moved the king to tears?" "All we know is that the beef soup has been passed down in secret." "This is why we have chosen beef soup for the final round." "We believe that the true disciple will exactly recreate the secret soup." "Secret Royal Soup Who will carry on the tradition of the Royal Chef?" "And be the new owner of the knife?" "Best of luck to both of our finalists." "I will not take part in this contest." "Cut!" "Chef OH, what's with you?" "I'd rather quit than to disgrace the Royal Chef's honor." "He was poisoned by an apprentice." "The Royal Chef had two apprentices." "One was my grandfather, who inherited Woonam-jung." "The other was his grandfather." "The Royal Chef was killed by Sung-chan's grandfather." "I couldn't believe it..." "Stop making up stories, you coward!" "Go on Ms. KIM." "Tell them." "You knew about this?" "Is it true what he said?" "Are you resigning from the competition?" "No, I just refuse to cook." "Are you going to give up the Royal Chef's knife?" "It's..." "Remember when I was kicked out of Woonam-jung?" "You made me your special beef soup." "I was sobbing inside." "Angry for being falsely charged, and sorry to you." "I even resented you for teaching me to cook." "I miss the beef soup you made me back then." "I want ribs." "Ribs?" "Make it for me." "Okay, grandpa." "Looks good, huh?" "Here." "What's wrong?" "You said you wanted ribs." "This is wrong." "I want ribs." "Grandpa, that's what this is." "Buy it for me!" "Okay, if you eat this, I'll buy you ribs." "Come on try just one bite." "Ummm, yummy." "What is he doing?" "He's making Secret Royal Soup for the contest on Independence Day." "He's been at it for a week." "Maybe he doesn't know the secret." "Say something, old man." "Didn't you wear this when you made it?" "Secret Royal Soup!" "What the hell is it!" "We're gonna keep the traditional taste." "Rotten bastard." "I heard the contest will be held on Independence Day." "I decided it's best to finish the competition." "More important than the contest, the Secret Royal Soup will be revealed." "It will be a very meaningful day." "Do you think Sung-chan will take to the challenge?" "I gave you ribs, ma'am." "I didn't want pork, I want beef." "But you said ribs." "I meant beef ribs." "Sorry, I thought you meant pork." "Get it right next time." "Please, make the noise stop!" "I don't want to hear it." "Stop the banquet." "Stop it." "It must be stopped!" "1926, just after death of King Soon-jong" "Adding Japanese flavor to Korean food makes a great combination." "I will carefully protect the secret recipe." "It's been passed down through generations in our family." "Guard it well and give it to your descendants." "I will, sir." "I heard there is a beef soup that brought tears to the king." "Will you cook it for our next banquet?" "His master made that for the king." "Who is your master?" "The one I serve has past away." "I have no reason to cook." "I'll just drink in peace 'till I die." "But it's a very important banquet." "Sung-hyun!" "See that he gets some soup before he goes." "What a refreshing taste." "What's the name of this soup?" "He asks what the name of this soup is." "Master!" "Master!" "The Japanese soldiers are here to force you to cook for their banquet!" "Please don't do this master!" "I have no use for my hands anymore!" "Master!" "What are you doing, grandpa?" "You're cooking beef soup?" "Great!" "I really missed your cooking..." "Grandpa?" "What's this?" "Did your mentor give this to you?" "Shouldn't we prepare some food for the guests?" "Why don't we just order it from here?" "I'll make it." "It's the last thing I can do for him." "I want to do it myself." "I'll go buy the groceries." "I need beef ribs." "Bracken from Jeju Island..." "I'll make the pepper oil myself." "Please get some oil while you're there." "And the taro shoots..." "The taro shoots..." "This is not it!" "I want ribs!" "Grandpa..." "Is this what you were trying to tell me?" "That's what you wanted to teach me?" "Am I right?" "Master..." "That'll do..." "I want to rest in peace..." "No, master..." "Give me the wine." "Let me rest in peace." "I don't want to hear their celebration any longer." "Please..." "Sung-hyun..." "Now, I can prepare a banquet for my king..." "Your majesty..." "Your majesty..." "Master!" "I'm so sorry..." "Although he had no choice, he felt guilty for his master's death, so he left Woonam-jung." "And Man-sik the betrayer ended up becoming the owner of Woonam-jung." "But Sung-hyun would've been the real Royal Chef." "How can that happen?" "Does Sung-chan know?" "Sung-chan?" "Where are you?" "Call me when you hea this message." "Yes, chief." "Sung-chan showed up at the competition." " What?" " Where are you?" "Get here, now!" "The Royal Chef's knife has a spirit." "It searches for its rightful master." "I will win to avenge the Royal Chef's death!" "Independence Day, Aug15th" " Final Round And show you that justice will prevail." "Soon the Secret Royal Soup making contest will begin." "What was the secret soup that made King Soon-jong cry?" "I gotta go!" "Leave the shop open!" "But today's a holiday." "If Sung-chan wins, we're giving out free food!" "Hon!" "Wait!" "Your pants!" "Let's see who will unveil the Secret Royal Soup." "I heard a shocking story about Woonam-jung." "Quiet." "Tell me later." "Mr. Fujiwara, who is returning the Royal Chef's knife, will also act as a judge." "Let's start with Chef OH's beef soup." "I made this with my grandfather's secret recipe." "It is exquisite, a taste I've never come across before." "Let's unveil Chef Sung-chan's beef soup." "What's this?" "This is the Royal Chef's secret soup?" "It's a common, everyday soup, but it's grandpa's last gift to me." "This isn't a market stall." "Get that cheap soup out of here." "The judges are taste testing." "Let's wait for the results." "What's going on?" "They're taste testing, but there's no response yet." "Camera 1!" "Full shot on Fujiwara!" "Now I understand why King Soon-jong was moved to tears." "This beef soup contains every aspect of Korea." "The long-serving cow is Korea's grass-roots democracy." "The hot pepper oil is Korea's hot and lively spirit..." "The taro shoots represent a nation that does not submit to foreign power." "The bracken is the vigorous life that spreads like wild grass." "What the Royal Chef cooked for the King was not just simply beef soup." "To the King who had lost his country, he demonstrated that Korea's spirit will live on." "The king could read the Royal Chef's heart..." "And that's why he cried..." "It's hard to believe that a king would be so moved by a cheap bowl of soup." "What proof do we have that this is Royal Chef's soup?" "My father said the name of the soup was Yuk-gae-jang." "What's the name of this soup?" "What's the name of this soup?" "Yuk-gae-jang is correct." " Yes!" "Alright!" " Any comments on Chef OH's soup?" "Tell me about that." "It's delicious, but it's not something the Royal Chef would've made." "You moron..." "Using fried bean curd and soy sauce is a Japanese tradition, not Korean." "I'm actually stunned." "This tastes exactly like a soup that's been in our family for generations." "It's as if my mom came to life and made it for me." "Camera 4!" "Go!" "What is he saying?" "I don't know how you learned to make it..." "But whoever gave you the recipe, probably didn't want it to be revealed." "Because... it's a soup with both Korean and Japanese origins." "This is absurd!" "The true descendant of the Royal Chef is Chef Sung-chan!" "Congratulations." "You are the new owner of this knife." "The great knife of the Royal Chef has finally found its owner." "Please give a big round of applause to Chef Sung-chan!" "Alright!" "Free Food Today!" "Congratulations..." "How to eat the best ramen" "Eat it when you're hungry." "P.S. You must be really hungry." " Hosung" "Four bowls for delivery!" "I'm here, mom!" "There's my son-in-law!" "Wait!" "Have some food before you go." "I can't." "Too many deliveries to make." "More kimchi over here!" "My daughter will be here soon." "That rotten girl..." "Maybe next time, mom." "There she is." "Let me introduce you two." "My daughter Jin-su, and Sung-chan." "Jin-su, Sung-chan?" "' That means a great feast, doesn't it?" "I didn't realize that." "Get me more rice over here!" "Go on, say hello." " Hello..." " Ah... hi..." "Over here, please." "Oh, yeah." "Noodles for table five!" "Three noodles please!" " Yes, sir." " Coming up." "Have a great day." "More kimchi, please." " Check, please." " Coming!"
