THE LEGEND OF KITCHEN SOLDIER

SEONGJAE'S TABLE HOME-STYLE MEALS

SEONGJAE'S TABLE

Dad, I'm back.

Seong-jae, welcome back.

Yeah.

What's that smell?

Gosh.

Are you making seaweed soup for my birthday?

It's not for you. Don't think about it.

What? Then who's it for?

Who else could it be?

It's for the one who went through so much to give birth to you.

Seong-jae, look at this.

It's nice and plump, right?

Dad, you still love Mom that much?

You know what I think about when I'm cooking?

I think, "I have to make this perfect for my Su-yeon."

- That's what I always think. - Jeez.

I feel so left out.

So I guess I have to buy my own soup.

Do you want the recipe?

No, it's fine. I can't cook.

I'm no good at cooking, and I don't enjoy it.

You need to know how to make this

for your future girlfriend's love.

When you're making this sea urchin seaweed soup

do you know what the secret ingredient is?

Isn't it just about using fresh sea urchin?

No, no.

It's this. This right here.

Once this goes into the sea urchin seaweed soup

the soup just

it's just absolutely

to die for, you know? To die for.

Battalion Commander!

- Battalion Commander! - Battalion Commander!

EPISODE 2

Battalion Commander, you can't leave us!

Our country still needs you, sir!

Those sons of bitches.

What the hell did they put in the soup?

Get him to the Medical Unit, now!

Quiet!

Go...

Go...

I'll go tell your wife you love her.

Go to a civilian hospital.

Not the Medical Unit.

Go to the nearest civilian hospital. Now!

- Civilian Hospital! - Hurry!

Hurry, hurry!

- What's going on? - The Battalion Commander collapsed, sir.

Why, all of a sudden?

GANGLIM OUTPOST

I heard that after the seaweed soup made by the new cook

he suddenly had trouble breathing.

In this case, under military law, is it assault on a superior?

Or the crime of providing harmful food?

Damn it.

A LOYAL BROTHERHOOD THAT PROTECTS THE NATION

Your military career is totally screwed now, huh?

MILITARY POLICE

I'm not involved in the seaweed soup.

I'm innocent.

Hey, Kang Seong-jae, say something!

This must be a misunderstanding.

This... this can't be right.

But he said if I made it this way

it would be killer.

I knew his food would get him in trouble one of these days.

Oh my goodness.

Oh my. What in the world is happening here?

Seriously, did they put something in his food?

I should've known it when he said, "This has to go in the soup."

So he did put something in it!

But it really wasn't anything special.

My God, what did you put in there, you brat!

Battalion Commander.

Don't worry, sir.

We brought you to a civilian hospital

not the Med Unit, as you asked.

Are you all right, sir?

We were so worried something terrible had happened to you.

I went to heaven.

Sir, what are you talking about?

You must live a long, healthy life, sir.

I met an angel,

and floated on clouds.

Can you believe that?

- Nurse! - Someone's dying over here!

Nurse!

- Hurry! - Hurry!

The fantastic combination of seaweed and sea urchin roe.

This must be heaven.

Of course

that was before those guys showed up.

Wait a minute.

This is so good.

You really think so?

What a relief.

Thank you.

What's this?

It's per ill a seed powder.

It's asphyxiation due to anaphylactic shock

from the per ill a seed powder.

Battalion Commander!

Battalion Commander.

He had some trouble breathing

from a per ill a seed powder allergy

and briefly fainted.

I gave him allergy medication, so he just needs to take it.

You didn't know the Battalion Commander avoids per ill a seed powders

because of his allergy?

I'm sorry, Battalion Commander.

I should have paid closer attention

but I was careless.

I will make sure to retrain

the Outpost Commander and cooks.

Seok-ho.

Yes, Battalion Commander.

Go easy on Ye-rin

and the soldiers.

If we just let this go, how do we know it won't happen again?

We need to teach them a serious lesson.

We're

officers, after all.

Straighten up!

Do you have any idea what you've just done?

You should be treating cooking like it's actual combat!

Deputy Outpost Commander, that's enough.

Yelling at them won't help the Battalion Commander get better.

Commander.

If we let this slide, unit discipline will break down.

The sergeant takes off for a break before meal service is even over.

And the private cooks with whatever civilian ingredients he wants.

I get what you're saying,

but I was there

watching him cook the soup, so it's my fault too.

Ma'am?

So if you want to blame someone, blame me.

On your feet, both of you.

- Up! - Up!

It had to be Battalion Commander...

- This weakens military strength... - Hero.

You have successfully completed the quest.

With your new level, you can use a new recipe

and check favor ability.

Hey, Kang Seong-jae. Are you looking at something?

Private Kang Seong-jae. No, sir!

Salute.

Yes, Company Commander. Should we court-martial them?

Sir?

I'm very disappointed.

You are cooks.

How can you be so careless with the ingredients?

Private Kang Seong-jae.

Did you make soup with sea urchin roe and per ill a seed powder?

- Yes, sir. - Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun.

- Sergeant Yoon Dong-hyun. - Are you authorized to cook

with non-issued ingredients?

- No, sir. - Exactly.

So

where the hell did the sea urchin roe come from?

It's domestic, I believe.

Did I...

Did I ask you where it was sourced from?

I believe the Master Sergeant

put it in there.

BREAKFAST, LUNCH, AND DINNER

You can't just put anything in here.

Come on, sir.

What was that?

What do you call it

when a sea urchin lays eggs?

Sea urchin roe.

Oh, for crying out loud.

This isn't your personal fridge.

What was he thinking?

- Get rid of all of it. - Yes, sir.

Fortunately, our Battalion Commander said

he'd be lenient with you.

But.

If something like this happens again.

I, Hwang Seok-ho

will show no mercy.

- Dismissed. - Attention.

Salute. Sir!

- At ease. - At ease.
