Geez. He's that old and he still hasn't gotten over his first love.
Do I have indigestion? Why do I have heartburn all of a sudden?
Do you remember what you once said to me?
You gave me this when you said it.
Take it. It's my present.
Do you know what it means when someone gives you a pendant?
What is it? What did I say?
Why don't you tell me?
You came here to ask because you remember right?
You asked me if I knew the meaning of giving someone a pendant.
Really? Did I say something cute like that to you?
I was really cute wasn't I? I asked you the meaning of a necklace.
Did you come all the way here to ask me that?
No! No way.
I was just passing by and I thought I would get you something to celebrate.
Do you have something else like this?
Go!
What was it? What did you need to tell her?
You don't need to know. Just start the car.
You think I'm your slave? Tell me why at least.
What is this?
It's your fare. Now that I've paid you, shut up and let's get going.
You didn't come here to get this did you?
You couldn't do what you came here for and wasted your time again.
What?
Cut out your crap and start the car! Let's go!
Fine! Fine!
Dummy.
You should have asked then if you were going to ask.
I don't think you wanted to give me this, but thanks anyway.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Why wouldn't I be?
You and your attitude.
You think Ah Rang is okay too?
Mind your own business. It will be like a flu shot to him.
You really are a robot. There is no shot for love.
You can never have immunity for it.
There are so many different types of love viruses in the world.
You may be right about that.
You sound like you're speaking from experience of getting dumped a lot.
I will respect that.
Yeah! I've been dumped. What's wrong with that?
That's better than doing nothing.
That's how you learn.
But Ah Rang didn't run away like someone else.
He will do better next time.
I'm sorry that I didn't recognize.
I didn't know that you were an expert in getting dumped.
Yeah! Not everyone has the guts to get rejected every time.
You don't even have the guts to even try.
Me?
Who else?
- Wow! Just... wow! - Chicken.
You made Ray wait too long.
What if he changes his mind like you changed your mind?
Do Ah Rang!
I was right about liking you.
Moo Jin! I was really cool today wasn't I?
Yes.
Choi Da Rin and Dok Go Mi Jin. You have done well to get to the finals.
We will now announce Korea's No. 1 chef winner.
The winner is...
At first I thought she was the worst woman in the world.
That's good. Now I will taste your dishes.
I will listen to your explanations afterward.
Let me taste them.
I didn't use crabs. I used shrimp instead of crab. So it may taste differently.
But I guarantee you that it will taste better.
Like you said, it tastes different from what we had thought.
And Choi Da Rin.
We will now taste the dessert cake that Choi Da Rin has prepared for us.
Do you even have taste buds?
Give me a detailed list of what is wrong with my dish!
I thought she was my worst nightmare come true.
The final winner... is the master of dessert cakes, Choi Da Rin!
I swore that I won't ever look at her again once the program was over.
But God help me...
Why is her restaurant close to mine?
Why are thoughts of her always bugging me?
Hi.
Then I finally admitted it...
That I fell in love with that hideous woman.
Oh my god. I saw that show too.
She really hates you.
I know that too. So I thought about what I should be doing.
Then my uncle gave me this.
Your uncle?
Him.
That's my nephew. Take good care of his case for me.
Give him an employee discount.
I'm sure that you will do just fine for him.
If you can't...
Okay?
Don't worry about a thing, sir.
Welcome to Cyrano Agency.
I will do my best to make your love come true.
Damn it!
The target loathes the client.
I can charge triple for a case like this. But he will kill me if I do.
And if I fail...
I will be in hell right away.
The goal of this mission is to cut down the cost to a minimum for maximum efficiency.
If I have to go up on the rooftop because of someone's mistake
know that I won't be going alone.
Then we will just quit.
Right?
Yeah.
They say that loyalty does not exist anymore.
Gong Stone! Stop speaking of betrayal already.
Get ready to watch the target!
I was kidding about quitting.
Look at her. Just look at her.
Sir, Seo is going to have a hard time with this one.
Dok Go Jin or Dok Go Jin Mi... whatever her name is.
She hates my nephew's guts.
So you set this up on purpose?
Yes, of course!
I'm going to give him hell this time.
He is a man of his word.
Of course.
If Seo gets this done, he will have my respect.
Hi.
Master!
Get the interest ready for the next month. Alright?
I'm going to kill you if you're even late by a second okay?
- I will kill you. - Yes sir.
Bye.
We're going to lose customers if those people come here.
Don't worry. They are nicer than they look.
Is it even possible to make someone like a person she hates?
It's not like you're Cupid or that you have a Love Potion.
You don't need supernatural powers like that to turn hatred into love.
Hatred is another form of love. Don't you know that?
Oh...
So how are we going to change that hatred into love?
Stop being so impatient and wait. I will take care of everything.
I'm not impatient.
It's not like I will be on the rooftop.
Good luck then.
I like her. She's everything she looks like.
She doesn't show her weaknesses.
She is always on time. She always comes to get her bread at 3.
Now that I think about it, she has never shown her weaknesses during the TV show.
When she had a team mission with Da Rin, a live octopus came out as their ingredient.
Choi Da Rin was panicking and he couldn't do anything but sweat.
But she didn't panic at all. She just grabbed it and started working on it.
Did he?
Okay! Let's get going.
I was only sweating because of the lights.
I liked it because it showed the human side of you.
It's okay for you to panic sometimes. You're not a robot.
Of course! Like how you're panicking right now.
What should I go tell her?
My uncle says that you even get the lines ready for us.
Just talk as usual. I need to see how you two talk in real life.
Approach like you would normally do it.
- Okay? - I see, thanks.
Mic testing, one two. One two.
Of all people, he likes someone that hates him.
You never know when your hormones will hit.
That's why being cold-blooded is important.
You shouldn't talk.
Mi Jin! Are you here to get your bread?
The weather is nice.
You call this nice?
It's hot and humid.
It's not?
Take some green tea with you. It was grown without sunlight. It's really mild.
I heard that it's the best quality. I got some for you.
No thank you. You should use the best for yourself.
I don't get caught up with the ingredients like someone.
Because good ingredients are the start.
Ju Da Hye!
What are you doing here so late?
Sorry. The bus broke down.
Broke down?
It was the subway yesterday and it's the bus driver today?
How come the bus and subway you ride always break down?
I should never get on a plane with you, should I?
She's the most hideous...
Break down?
I fell in love.
Da Rin.
Do you hate the subway during rush hour?
No, not really.
You like sticking to rules or principles don't you?
Yes.
You take off your scabs no matter how much it hurts.
Yes! How did you know that?
I knew it.
He found out his identity from her.
His identity?
He is 'M.'
M?
The thing with green eyes?
What the hell is that? He's a ***.
Didn't you see his pupils dilate whenever the target talked down to him?
His complexion brightened up.
Then he's a pervert?
Pervert?
Everyone likes it a little bit. It's just the difference of how much.
- I know a sadistic person. - Oh yeah? Who?
You.
- What? - Right?
Your eyes shine whenever you're giving someone a hard time.
You're the S.
Hey Gong Stone! You want to see what the real S is?
No way, pervert.
No thank you.
You want me to go there?
I'm so pissed. How can she speak like that?
Was she mean to you again?
Why do you even ask?
You know that she is.
Is she spitting venom from her mouth?
I should quit or something.
I just want to quit.
See? You're thinking of something evil aren't you?
Aren't you?
Gong Stone! You're going to get busy from now.
Ah Rang will investigate the restaurants the target has worked in.
Find out how she has lived.
Yes sir. That's easy.
Moo Jin and I will help Gong Stone.
I have something ready for Gong Min Young, who is so enthusiastic about team work.
What is it? Hmm?
What do I need to do now?
Mr. Choi. We need your help.
Why isn't he answering the phone?
Miss Dok Go! What did you need today?
- Fratello... - Do you have fratello?
Wow, two people want the same thing.
One second.
Aren't you Dok Go Mi Jin?
Wow! I became your fan after watching the show.
Sorry. You must hate people recognizing you.
Huh? It was fine just a while ago.
Hi. Is this insurance aid? My car is not starting.
What?
One hour?
Forget it.
And they say that they have the fastest service.
Are you going to take a cab?
The station is far away.
You have a lot of bags.
Did you need a lift?
It's hard to get a lift from a stranger isn't it.
Okay then.
Excuse me.
My name is Gong Min Young.
Min Young.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome. I want to become a cook too.
Really?
I guess if you know what a fratello is...
Fratello cabbage.
That's your recipe in the show.
I've tried all of your recipes.
It looks somewhat alike, but I'm sure that it tastes nothing like yours.
Actually, I couldn't disclose all of my recipe on the show.
Of course not! You took a lot of effort to develop them. You can't disclose it.
That's the pride of a cook.
Ju Da Hye! I couldn't reach you all day!
What? Quit?
Do you even have a brain?
How can you give a 1-day notice when you quit?
Her assistant took the offer when I told her my friend's restaurant had an opening.
I got the list of her grocery shopping as you ordered.
Good work.
Your cooperation is the biggest help that we have.
It's going to be hard because Mi Jin hates me a lot.
I'm going to help you with anything I can.
Damn it.
If he wasn't the nephew of the loan shark, I could have charged him extra.
What a loss!
Is the excitement growing for Min Young?
She says she has as much as everyone else. She has no choice.
Dok Go Mi Jin's policy is no man in her kitchen.
Gong Stone says that it's been 5 years since she moved out. She will do the basics.
Min Young also said that she could drink as much as everyone else.
What?
She has no basic manners. I have done so much for her, and yet she quits with just a phone call.
Hi Mi Jin. I have your bread ready.
It's Chef Choi Da Rin. He won Korea's No. 1 Chef.
I thought you hated him. Why are you here?
I don't hate his bread along with him.
His bread works the best with my dish.
He's still a good baker.
They look heavy. You want me to take them to your...
It's fine.
Mi Jin!
Can I ask you something?
- Will you be the first guest for my TV show? - No.
This is Mago Kitchen. I heard that getting a reservation here was impossible.
Thank you for today.
Visit once later. I will do my best to treat you.
Umm...
I heard that your assistant was quitting.
- Could I take that spot? - What?
I want to become a real cook under your tutelage.
I can't just decide on that that quickly.
I will do my best.
You can trust me. It looks like you have a lot of work to do today.
I will help you with all of that.
Wow.
Can you crack open those eggs?
Huh? Okay.
You would think that she's a maestro in cooking from looking at her face.
That looks hard.
Should we dress Ah Rang as a girl and have him work there?
Instead of eggs, can you peel the potatoes?
Okay. I don't have much experience with eggs.
One sec.
Get out of the kitchen right now!
I'm sorry.
What? Is something wrong?
Yes.
I really have to go somewhere.
I said that I was going to help you. I'm really sorry.
It's fine. Don't worry about it and go.
I really wanted to help you.
Will you still consider hiring me?
I told her to leave the mushrooms in water. She didn't do it.
It was a special order from the ambassador. I told her not to forget.
Mushrooms?
I have to leave them in cold water for a day at least.
We're in trouble.
Can't you just leave in hot water to make it go faster?
Then it gets cooked before it's roasted in butter. It won't taste good.
Butter?
What about milk then? It will be good if you leave it in hot milk.
If it's milk then the cream sauce may get into it even better.
Thank you Min Young.
It's nothing.
Okay then.
Gong Min Young?
Yes?
Can you start working tomorrow?
Of course! Of course I can.
Hi Mi Jin. Is something wrong?
Your face is too stern for your first cooking assignment.
There is a strange rumor about her.
Rumor?
It seems like gossip.
Check on it. No rumor exists in the world without a source.
Check if there's any evidence in the footage that was edited out.
Yes sir.
Do you even have taste buds?
Tell me in detail what is wrong with my dish.
She's really self-centered.
She's all an M could ask for.
M?
It wasn't just the client that she hated.
You still have the heart beat sensor?
Do we?
Did you all see how I inspired the runner-up for the Korean No. 1 Chef?
I wonder if I'm a genius in cooking.
It's like a cow getting lucky doing a trick by walking backwards.
You think it's easy for a cow to walk backwards? Right?
Heart beat sensor.
I'm so glad that you were hired. I almost had to dress as a girl tomorrow.
Cyrano Agency wouldn't have worked without me.
Stop right there.
No more appreciation for Gong Stone.
- Ah Rang, do the settings. - Yes sir.
What?
What is all this?
Practice! Don't you know that even the most gifted person needs to practice?
What is wrong with your knife work? Did you always eat ramen?
No.
Then?
We're the Baedal (delivery) generation.
So everything is there by delivery.
Don't slack off. Think of yourself as the new Jang Geum and practice.
I will come by later to check.
You know that I can get really good at this!
Shut up!
It's here.
What is this?
No.
This won't be good.
Min Young! You're going to get fired tomorrow.
You think so too?
Even if you're born with the most gifted inspirations...
you must learn the technique.
You are getting cocky like Il Rok.
What?
Like him? Please!
Just call me any name instead.
What should I do tomorrow?
Min Young! What did you just say?
Teach me!
So what are you saying?
Don't confuse master!
It seems that she quit the agency.
Start from the beginning.
I need to learn to cook for a mission.
But I have to learn really quickly.
Do you have any special tricks for me to become the best cook?
I think it's about the job for your nephew.
They should have asked me. I'm pretty good at cooking.
I'm like Steven Seagal.
You're the only one who can help me.
Can you help me?
Fine. I will make you my first apprentice.
There are a lot of good stuff.
Are you here to get something?
Oh. Are you here for the mission?
Min Young came to the restaurant to learn how to cook.
Oh.
You want me to pick the ones that you need?
Hey!
Where is Gong Stone?
She says that she needs a master.
Master?
Oh! Master!
You have to hold it past the grip using your thumb and index finger.
That way you can balance the knife and cut using little force.
It's easier to cut hard vegetables like cucumbers, radish, and carrots.
Here. Try to cut.
No, no. Bend the fingers like this.
Like this?
Yes, Chef!
I always wanted to do that!
Yes, Chef!
- Try cutting. - Okay.
Wow! I really don't have to use much force like this.
You know that the client is really strange for this mission?
Strange?
The target hates him and she does everything to give him hard time,
but he still loves her.
Seo says that he's an M.
Even if it doesn't mean S&M
isn't it like that for all relationships?
Someone likes the other person first.
Or one person still could like more than the other person.
It's easy for the one who asks for love to become pathetic,
and for the one loved to be cruel.
I guess.
Wouldn't it be better if everyone loved equally and were happy?
If you cut like this, it won't ruin the shape of the vegetable.
I heard that the client is the winner of Korea's No. 1 Chef.
I was really shocked. Dok Go Mi Jin was really mean in the show.
I thought men didn't like girls with attitudes like her.
I always thought that she was the least popular type.
What kind of girls do you like?
Girls?
Yeah! Do you like hot girls or cute girls?
Innocent girls or irresistible femme fatales?
I have never thought about it.
Really? Never?
No.
Never.
What kind of girl are you?
Can't you tell? I'm the cute girl.
Think about it. You can think of one easily.
It's hard.
Excuse me!
- That's strange. - Huh?
You never had someone you wanted to cook for?
I had many people that I wanted to go to good restaurants with.
You had someone?
Who was it? Who did you want to cook for?
I had someone.
So did you?
I couldn't. I wanted to.
Why not?
She was gone from this world.
You taste it too.
She's been there for so long. She won't be good no matter how long she tries.
What's that?
What's that?
This is the last trick.
This will make the soup taste better in the end.
I have never seen people put apples in soup.
That's a strange necklace.
Oh this?
I got it instead of a cab fare.
Hey!
Who are they?
Min Young! One sec.
Min Young!
Huh?
You want to go out with me?
What?
What do you like so much about Mi Jin?
I can't stop thinking about her. I miss her. My heart flutters for her.
I hate all men.
I know someone cocky like that.
When was I cocky? I'm just that good.
She needs a man that she could count on no matter how bad the situation is.
Become an air bag for her.
Kneel down.
What's going on?
- Gong Stone! - I must have been out of my mind.
I like you.
Are you serious?
- Do you like me? - What?
