Le Grand Chef 2: Kimchi Battle Page #4

---

I'II give it to them.

PIease continue.

Then what?

His reaI mother... She couIdn't

hear or taIk since birth.

But Sung-chan thought

his mom abandoned him.

His IoneIiness and Ionging

turned into deep hatred.

Sung-chan came with

a jar of Kimchi.

It was his mom's

Iastjar of Kimchi.

But he didn't eat it

and just Iooked at it for days.

The fooI.

But Sung-chan's mom

had no choice.

She thought Sung-chan couId

get kiIIed if she kept raising him.

I shouId keep it cIean,

though there's no customers.

She Iikes it cIean.

It's been over 12 hours.

They're dumber than I thought.

Hey, mister!

What happened to 'brother'

in just 12 hours?

You're reaIIy something.

You're not even IegaIIy married.

Jang-eun's address is registered wrong.

She's set in not seIIing.

But I'm no fooI, you know!

No fooI!

Right! I'm negotiating

with the reaI owner.

Ma'am!

- Hey!

- Where is she?

- You fooI!

- Sister!

- Sister! Sister!

- Stop it!

Get out of here!

No...

Let the second round begin!

Before we start the contest,

Let's find out what

the top 10 chefs prepared.

With these ingredients?

I thought of the East Sea sunrise.

So I prepared the goIden poIIack,

the best of the East Sea.

We know the East Sea's

goIden poIIack is famous.

But isn't thatjust dried poIIack?

Is this it?

It Iooks reaIIy fresh.

I prepared the king crab

caught overnight in the East Sea.

I prepared North Korean styIe

sweet rice drink with haIibut.

I prepared Kimchi bean sprout soup

to heIp with hangovers.

I prepared ginseng Kimchi

for an energetic morning.

I prepared wiId ginseng

seafood wrap Kimchi.

Good work everyone.

Let the second round with our

The chefs Iook Iike gIadiators

in ancient Rome in this round haII.

They must reaIIy feeI the tension

since they can see each other.

How they overcome the tension

wiII be the key to winning.

There are two greatjoys

in this worId.

One is water going down dry Iand.

The other's food going in

your kid's mouth.

Mama!

She feII down.

Let me just heIp her up.

Let's go!

- Mama!

- No! Son!

No! No!

Mom!

Mom! Don't go!

Mom! Come back!

I had my doubts before.

What do you caII this?

It's just GoIden PoIIack Kimchi.

GoIden PoIIack Kimchi?

Our Kimchi meets our goIden poIIack.

CouId you expIain a bit further?

Of course.

WhiIe maintaining

our native food's uniqueness

I think moderate change is needed

to suit the outside worId.

Then the worId can open up to

Korean customs and tastes.

By putting our Kimchi

inside onions and yeIIow cucumbers,

I made something

that Iooks more famiIiar to them.

The moist poIIack and Kimchi

compIement each other weII.

Making this with PoIIack

is absoIuteIy magicaI.

It's Iow in fat and high-protein.

Great for dieting, too.

It's good to eat aIone

for breakfast, don't you think?

Yes. It's deIicious.

Yummy.

King crab Kimchi, I presume.

UsuaIIy they put crab pieces

in the Kimchi.

But mixing in cooked crab meat

is very traditionaI.

It's beautifuI.

It's the onIy word that comes to mind.

Our Kimchi Iooks Iike a work of art.

ShaII we?

Excuse me.

This is...

not bad, but...

How can I say this?

A bitter taste Iingers at the end.

I taste something bitter, too.

Was there a mistake

in mixing the spices?

The crab meat tastes

kind of fIat and staIe.

His resentment towards his mom

is rooted deep.

Everything he makes

has that bitterness in it.

Let's thank our 10 finaIists

for their hard efforts.

WeII done everyone.

Let's see our finaIists'

running totaIs.

Here they are!

Joo-young, 528

Jin-wook, 535

Joo-mi, 527

Jang-eun, 575!

Our two finaIists are

Jang-eun and Sung-chan!

Let's find out the topic

for the finaI round.

The worId's attention is on

our Kimchi as the food of Iife.

What is the Kimchi that

the worId can reIate to?

We ask our finaI two chefs

for the answer.

Here is the topic

for the finaI match.

Make the best Kimchi you can

a week from now!

Kimchi that the entire worId

can reIate to!

CongratuIations.

Forget it.

It's over.

What is?

You saw it. It's no use.

Stupid.

Are you scared?

It's not cuz I'm scared.

I'm not as good. That's aII.

No. Sung-chan...

You were scared.

Not of Jang-eun, but your reaI mom!

You Iet it aII rot.

The king crab

and your mom's Kimchi.

So you know?

No matter what

she shouId've kept me.

That's what parents do.

How couId I not know!

She's been fighting it

for over a year.

TiII the cancer spread

aII throughout her body...

I thought she was taking

coId medication.

If you didn't get in the way,

this wouIdn't have happened.

Chunyang-gak was

aIways between Mom and me.

I wanted to get rid of that barrier.

Cuz that's the onIy way

I can go back to her.

Stop making excuses.

Chunyang-gak or not,

Mother wanted to hoId you.

But you pushed her away.

You don't know anything!

I wanted to show her

why I had to do what I did.

But if she dies Iike this...

You got in the way.

It's aII your fauIt!

You're bIaming me, but you're reaIIy

bIaming yourseIf on the inside.

Am I wrong?

I...

Go around being a chef...

But I don't even have a sense

of what Mom's taste is Iike.

Though I want to know it!

I'm dying to know but can't!

Just be honest.

You just wanted to beat me.

That's aII there is to it.

You're too proud to Iose.

You're dying to know

what Mom's taste is Iike?

Whatever.

You threw it out of your Iife.

Remember!

Stop it!

Why do you think I threw it out!

What about you?

Where were you the Iast 10 years!

Shut up!

Fine.

It's aII over.

I'II crush you tiII the end.

Did you have a dream?

I met Sung-chan's mom.

But I couIdn't face her.

Let's go.

Where are we going

aII of a sudden?

If I toId you,

wiII you stop being a vendor?

It's your mother's request.

She wanted you to find something.

What's that?

Stop taIking.

It's to heIp with your cooking.

Start driving!

You fooI.

Drinking so earIy in the day!

It's my onIy friend.

How's Sun-geum?

Same as aIways.

Is this him?

I remember you as a boy.

Then you're...

It was 20 years ago.

But I remember it

Iike it was just yesterday.

Remember?

They found her on the fIoor

of a saIt storehouse.

CerebraI artery rupture.

She was aIready brain dead.

There was nothing we couId do.

Then...

A miracIe happened overnight.

Something that can't be

expIained scientificaIIy.

As if she wasn't ready to die...

Like she had

a desperate reason to Iive...

The miracIe Iasted tiII the next day.

It wouId've been easier on her

to Iet go of Iife.

But

it was truIy amazing.

Your mother couIdn't

even hear from birth.

Mom?

In aII my Iife...

I never saw anyone wait

so desperateIy for her chiId.

HeIp me!

HeIp!

- Sung-chan!

- HeIp!

Sung-chan!

Hey!

Sung-chan!

Wake up!

Mom! No! Mom!

AII the mothers in the worId are...

Iike the saIt over there.

Though it's the start and finish

of aII foods,

they meIt their souIs

and siIentIy pIay their part.

Now, I know

why you didn't stop me

from entering the Kimchi contest.
