If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 196
The first day of the hotteok business in San Diego.
Even before opening time, the PD gave a briefing with a smirk.
“Everyone, don’t forget! I’m going to play tomorrow~”
The remaining debt is 1,000 dollars.
Last season, due to a miserable defeat from debt and sales to the last desperate lot, it ended in debt.
Therefore, if you don’t earn about 1,500 dollars today, it means that the moment you play tomorrow, the debt will be settled.
‘At this point, the painting will be more fun once I pay it back.’
Even though the money kept piling up, it was a problem because the tension went down, but it was also not good to continue to be in debt. Wouldn’t it be nice to have uphill and downhill?
But maybe the PD guy is too immersed in it, so he doesn’t give a chance.
“We should show our Korean conscience, right? The price doubles just because you put one dalgona on it, and that kind of thing is not okay~”
“Shit.”
“Huh? Sheesh, who is it now?”
I can’t help it.
What I can trust now is the ability to attract customers and…Is it Cha Yoo-jin’s existing connections?
Just in time, Cha Yoo-jin raises both arms and shouts.
[All my high school friends are coming? We make each person order three menus!]
“No, it’s okay.”
If you go that far, it’s a strong sell. Let’s work hard as a solicitor rather than posting controversial articles.
It’s time to reorganize the job distribution and bring out new fun, but we postponed it at the end of the discussion because we need skilled skills today.
So today’s lineup is similar to last time.
Cha Yoo-jin and Seon Ah-hyun, who are fluent in foreign languages, take orders, and Ryu Chung-woo and Keun Se-jin finish the plating and serving.
Only one person has a change.
“I will work hard.”
Bae Se-jin was put into the cooking department.
With the addition of Dalgona, the amount of labor increased… is a superficial reason, but in fact, there are other reasons.
Last season, Bae Se-jin fell into a sense of shame after making a single mistake, so I took out the all-around position as a diced radish, and the reaction was very good.
‘They made a fuss about being cute.’
The production team saved the character who works so hard through editing, so it became ‘not obvious, but actually 1.5 servings’.
And this time, based on that image, positions are assigned to give the taste of promotion.
‘It would be more fun if it was a picture that had a lot of contact with foreigners.’
Sejin Bae felt that his stomach would melt, so he quit.
“I will work hard too! Let’s make and sell the perfect Hotteok today!”
“…good!”
“yes. Shall we go after a fight?”
“okay!”
Roughly speaking, something like “I was full of energy until this point” seems to be included in the next cut, but I did it once for the picture.
next…These are the toppings you need to prepare right before opening.
“Mr. Moondae, what are you doing now?”
“Dalgona is pre-produced.”
Big Sejin started to point a Handycam into a frying pan. It will probably be used in a separate recipe clip video.
In fact, I’m embarrassed to even call this a recipe.
“After melting the sugar sufficiently, I plan to add baking soda and create an air layer.”
“Oh, then what do you like?”
“The texture becomes softer.”
I made an enormous dalgona with three huge frying pans. And handed them over one by one to Bae Se-jin, who was waiting.
“I! Eat me!”
“…ruler.”
Bae Se-jin, who was diligently breaking dalgona, awkwardly held out a large piece to Cha Yu-jin.
It looks like feeding a beast, but in the actual airing, it seems to be highlighted as a heartwarming moment.
And at that time, Kim Rae-bin, who was carefully subdividing the crushed pieces of Dalgona, suddenly made a noise.
“Uh uh!”
“what’s the matter?”
“Everyone is hurt…?!”
Even Seon Ah-hyun, who was cleaning the table outside, jumped in.
“no! I want you to pay attention to this just once!”
And Kim Rae-bin was so excited that he separated Dalgona… started weighing on the scales.
30 g.
It is a perfect quantity without error.
Did you mean to brag about this?
“Yeah, that’s fine.”
“And this too!”
Kim Rae-bin quickly put another thing on the scale.
Another 30 g.
“oh.”
“This too…!”
Kim Rae-bin kept putting other dalgona packs on the scale.
30 30 30 31 30….
“…??”
“omg.”
Even the producers started to stir up.
PD hurriedly asked.
“Lavin, didn’t weigh all of this and just put it in by persimmon?”
Kim Rae-bin clasped his hands tightly.
“yes!!”
oh my god.
“Aaaaaaa!!”
“What is Kim Rae-bin’s hand!”
The members started making a fuss around Kim Rae-bin.
Apparently, Kim Rae-bin is a good slave even if he goes to the lab, not the arts and sports… No, it must have been a graduate student.
“oh my god! oh my god!”
All of a sudden, the staff joined in, and it became an atmosphere of scoring a goal in a World Cup.
[The broken hotteok machine]
[Suddenly started operating normally]
Hmm, maybe this kind of editing will go in right after.
What comes next is whether it’s ‘weirdly lucky’ or ‘dream team dispatch’.
‘Today’s sales will be decided.’
I changed the apron at the request of the art team.
It was time to open the shop.
* * *
Near La Jolla Beach on a nice day.
A woman returning home from a nearby manga shop smelled good.
‘Cinnamon?’
When I turned my head to the savory and sweet scent, I saw a small shop next to the corner.
‘I think it used to be a taco shop over there.’
I’m not sure because I’ve never been there, but the good smell made my legs move.
with my daughter!
[Welcome]
[Hmm, hello.]
Even at this ambiguous hour, the inside of the store already seemed quite crowded.
People who seemed to be employees greeted her while serving and moving freely between the tables.
And one of them came first.
[Would you like to try one?]
[Oh, that’s good.]
A tall man with a cheerful voice held out a tasting plate. It was nice to see his smiling face.
She took a piece off the plate in a flash.
[It’s a sweet snack with a little bit of cinnamon. I like the texture. ice cream or… .]
[Table 3 sweet and sour!]
[Yeah okay! um guest. If you like it and it’s delicious, call me!]
The man smiled broadly and was about to say something more, but when he heard the call from the kitchen, he just smiled and ran away.
The person who called the man from the kitchen was also a man of his age with clean skin and a well-groomed appearance.
‘Everyone is handsome… .’
There was a vibe that was felt beyond race. She stood in a daze near the entrance and chewed on a piece of hotteok.
Hot and sweet cinnamon syrup exploded inside the crispy blood.
“…!”
‘It’s delicious!’
I was attracted to the smell, but my heart was firm.
‘Looks like today’s snacks have been decided.’
She headed straight to the counter where the menu was hung.
The man who had been leaning on the counter suddenly got up and did it.
[Are you going to order?]
Uh uh uh?
She gaped at the familiar figure beneath the unfamiliar hair color.
[Oh! you! Eugene!]
[Huh?]
The other person had a puzzled expression. When I looked up, I could see more of his handsome features and fangs.
Her memory was correct. It was Eugene!
[hmm…Have we ever met? middle School? Elementary school?]
Of course, I should have expected this reaction as well.
Because he was such a popular boy, the only point of contact with him as a nerd was to show him his homework and get some snacks in return.
[ah…It’s Hannah Hamilton. We were in the same class as you in middle school.]
[Ah~ Hana! nice to meet you. How are you?]
Wow, but pretending to know is encouraging!
Hanna laughed and replied.
[I’m getting along perfectly. Are you?]
[Fantastic. Oh, are you going to order?]
[Huh? uh…Um.]
As she hesitated, new people entered the store.
[Did you, son of a bitch, come back from San Diego??]
[Oh~ Welcome!]
‘Ugh.’
They were middle school alumni without a face.
She backed away in discomfort.
Then I bumped into someone from behind.
[…] ! I’m sorry!]
[It’s okay.]
It was another employee. A French accent lingered in his tone.
And surprisingly, this one is also handsome.
‘…What is this?’
What the hell is going on in this little shop?
When our eyes met, the elegant employee asked with a smile.
[…] Would you like to order?]
[…] yes Hey, do you have a vegetarian menu?]
[Sure. Vegetarian too… There is. Can you take a look here?]
She was recommended vegetarian hotteok topped with cashew vanilla ice cream by a friendly and classy employee.
And by the time the menu came out, Eugene came back.
[Hanna~ Huh? You already ordered!]
Then, a short conversation took place over the meal.
There were some frightening things among them.
[You say you’re a K-pop singer?]
[Yes!]
It was an unexpected remark.
It’s like saying this, but it felt strange when a popular boy who used to play American football mentioned K-pop!
It was true that some of the K-pop singers were famous, but overall it felt more like a subculture.
However, Eugene was calm.
[I did not know? I’m filming right now! These are all my team members.]
[…] !!]
After that, I looked around and I could see camera lenses all over the place. And there were guides all over the place.
– Filming at a Korean broadcasting station. Thank you for your understanding.
I didn’t notice it because I was looking at the food and the staff.
‘I met an alumni who was a quarterback for the first time in a while, but he became a K-pop star and sells snacks… you.’
In a situation that didn’t seem realistic, she chewed food in silence.
In the meantime, the hotteok I ordered was very delicious.
‘It would be fine if I just continued to sell here.’
In addition, at the end of the meal, I was even given a drink.
[Hmm, it’s called ‘Dalgona Soymilk Latte’! That hyung says it’s a service for my friend?]
[Hyung?]
I turned my gaze to Eugene’s nod.
The man with a nonchalant expression he saw earlier in the kitchen nodded.
And smiled slightly.
‘…It’s cute!’
She almost smiled and nodded together, but she managed to change her route halfway through.
[really? thank you. He’s kind.]
[Yes, he’s a good older brother!]
Hanna unconsciously drank a new drink while talking to Eugene.
“…!”
This was also quite tasty.
I reflexively looked up and looked back at the kitchen to see that the man who had given me the free drink had full control of the kitchen.
‘You’re a singer, so you cook so professionally?’
Maybe this is my main job, and I didn’t know that I was also adjusting my position as a band member who didn’t have a big part… .
‘…Shall I ask for your number?’
Nope. can you tell me
She stopped thinking and picked up her smartphone instead.
click.
She took a picture of the restaurant’s menu and uploaded it to her comics mania social media account.
[A store I found by accident. KPOP boy bands say it’s done, but the taste was expert’s (chin resting emoticon)]
It didn’t mean much. It was just a record.
‘Still, it’s true that the food is delicious. …The staff are cute too.’
In the end, she packed three sets of hotteok.
The man in the kitchen happily witnessed the series of events.
‘Okay, sales are going well.’
At this rate, a new record for the highest amount is just around the corner,” Moondae Park of the kitchen said with satisfaction.
And that night, Hannah confirmed that the post she posted on social media received a tremendous response.
Testa’s fans cried and asked for the location of the store.
-Please please tell me please where are you??
-Oh my God I was at La Jolla Beach yesterday; (
-You seem like such a lucky person (Gif of Cha Yoo-jin looking at Park Moon-dae’s hotteok)
‘Oh my God.’
She eventually realized that her alumni had succeeded beyond imagination through Testa’s several music videos and American talk show appearances. And after a few days of messing around with WiTube, you want to turn back the time, saying ‘
I
should have gotten an autograph.
‘
* * *
“Whoa.”
Today’s sales…
1
627
dollars !
.’
And after a loud dinner with Cha Yu-jin’s family, a break was finally given. However,
she
shared a room with Cha Yu-jin again. Shit
.
“Hyung! I think our unit stage is cool!”
But that’s something I haven’t heard in a long time since the unit stage was decided to be an encore concert.
Well, it’s time to talk about it.
“What is it?”
Cha Yujin hit my bed.
[Really . I’ve thought about it many times, but the circus is the best choice!]
Is that so?
I looked at my smartphone and replied,
“Yes.”
“Oh?”
“Let’s do the circus.”
“Wow!” Cha Yu-jin raised
both hands.
