Episode 1

"Hear us. Hear us."
"Hear our cries."
"Our friend is trapped under a tree,
unable to move."
"The animals looked into the girl's eyes
and pleaded in their hearts."
"Save him." "Please."
"Then, the girl saved
the squirrel trapped under the tree."
"This girl has a special power."
"When she locks eyes with another,
only then can she hear
the voice in their heart."
Dolce & Chocolat. is known for
their cute and delicious
chocolate and coffee,
but they both use cacao beans
that were meant to be discarded--
We don't use cacao beans.
These shells, known as cacao pods,
hold about 30 seeds surrounded by flesh,
which we call the cacao pulp.
And this is a cacao bean.
Okay.
Boss sure is aggressive today.
Chocolate usually only uses cacao nibs,
which are cacao beans
with their husks removed.
But these discarded husks can still
be used to make delicious chocolate.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Y-Yes.
We use cacao husks
that would usually be discarded
to produce chocolate, chocolate-flavored
coffee, and other everyday goods.
I'm going out to the shop.
-See you.
-Okay.
Chocolate and coffee
made from discarded cacao.
That's my life right now.
That looks so tasty. I want some too.
No, Noa.
But you always say no.
We're not here for you today, Noa.
Why? I want some.
-I wanna eat some.
-Noa, calm down.
Can we help you, Sir?
I'm sorry.
We're here to buy a gift,
but she insists on having some too.
Mind your manners.
I want some too.
I don't have enough money to buy two.
And Noa gets cavities so easily.
Can I have one box of ten?
Um…
I also recommend this.
It's the same price as that one, but…
Then I can bring one as a gift
and take the other home.
And this one uses xylitol
instead of sugar,
so cavities aren't a concern.
Really?
She always gets cavities.
Really? This is perfect.
Hey, how does this chocolate sound?
Really? I love you, Dad!
I love you too!
Brush your teeth after, okay?
Okay.
Wow, this is incredible.
Isn't this pretty, Dad?
I'm glad you like it.
I always wanted to bring you here, Yuri.
TWELVE YEARS AGO
Oh, what?
KIRITAPPU CAPE
Dad, sea otters!
They're really here!
Oh, I see them.
Since we're here,
let's take a closer look tomorrow.
Yeah, I'd love that.
Yuri!
Ever since that accident,
I've been able to hear the thoughts of
anyone I locked eyes with.
It was confusing at first,
and my feelings were often hurt.
But I realized that it isn't all bad
once you figure out
how to properly use this power.
-Thanks.
-You're welcome.
People's thoughts
aren't always out of ill will.
-Get home safely.
-Bye-bye.
You're so good at this, Yuri.
It's almost scary
how well you can read people's feelings.
You think?
But why can't you get a boyfriend?
Is it because you're still
caught up on an ex from high school?
People's thoughts?
Yeah.
It's not like that.
But I just know…
how hard it can be to find romance
when you have this power.
When people fall in love,
they end up wishing…
To know their partner's thoughts,
even if it may hurt them.
I'm so hungry.
GOHAN
RECEIVE ORDER
12 MINUTES, 360 YEN
Time for food.
"This is a secret,
but if you want pibimbap,
there's a restaurant called Ondol Eatery
that tastes better."
A sea otter?
Aihara.
Yes?
You switched
the coffee bean order numbers.
How did you mix up
Colombian and Jamaican beans?
I don't think I'm suited for
tedious jobs like this.
Something with
more responsibility or meaning…
-That might--
-You can only go up one step at a time.
-What?
-Whatever job you get,
do it with positivity and grace.
-Makes sense.
-Yeah.
For starters…
Is Hanaoka interested in
anything other than work?
-Who knows?
-It's so strange.
I wonder if he has any hobbies.
Can't you just talk to him about work?
Then the conversation
won't go anywhere. Anyway--
Sorry, Kame.
-I'm clocking out.
-What?
Jeez.
Why is this here?
Seriously?
It's okay. I'll handle this.
-Thanks.
-It's fine. I'm climbing the ladder now.
I've been thinking,
aren't these better on the wall
instead of the desk?
Then, they'd be out of the way.
We should've bought those
in the first place.
You can go to lunch after your meeting.
Thank you.
-That's--
-No, Aihara.
Interrupting Boss's meal
will get you killed.
Kill--
Thanks, Hanaoka. What is this?
Convenience store by the station,
vanilla cream flavor, 124 yen.
Impressive. Thanks, as always.
And if we change all the trash cans
to the ones that hang on the walls,
it'll cost us 44,450 yen in expenses.
For now, I'll have everyone
put theirs under their desk.
Impressive. Sorry, as always.
-You'll miss your meeting.
-Oh!
I'm so hungry.
I'm so hungry!
"Pibimbap."
They meant bibimbap, right?
Ondol Eatery.
SIGNATURE DISH, BIBIMBAP
Hm?
A-OK
270 YEN
ONDOL EATERY
Let's go.
Enjoy.
Thank you for the food.
Is this made of bagasse?
It’s microwave-safe
but not oven-safe, right?
"Hope this energizes you."
"This restaurant's Korean pancakes
are good too."
Korean pancakes.
Seafood. Kimchi. Potato.
Let's get some.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED. THANK YOU.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED.
Cute.
Enjoy.
"The rapokki is to die for."
Rapokki?
That looks delicious.
I want some, but…
RAPOKKI
When you visit home,
you have to buy souvenirs, right?
You gotta think about
who to buy them for, right?
But the first person I thought of
wasn't my boyfriend.
It was my co-workers.
My mom asked me
if I wasn't getting him anything,
and that's when I remembered him.
I realized, "This is bad."
Are you listening?
Sorry, so basically,
what are you trying to say?
So, basically,
I think it's true love
when you want to buy them souvenirs.
Well, I don't have a guy
to buy souvenirs for,
nor would I buy a souvenir
as an excuse to see one.
So I don't really get it.
I guess you can't relate.
Yeah… What?
I've never had this before.
It's delicious.
Isn't it?
I got a great source of information.
Did someone suggest this place?
A food delivery guy.
He always leaves me notes.
-What?
-Yeah?
Isn't that shady?
What? Why?
That person guides me to delicious food.
He's like a god.
Don't look at me like that.
Maybe you feel a spark then.
YOUR ORDER HAS BEEN CANCELED
Why?
Why, God?
70-MINUTE WAI
60-MINUTE WAI
Why's there such a long wait?
Is it some kind of holiday today?
It's raining.
That's why it's taking so long.
I'm so hungry. Oh no, I'm so hungry.
Huh?
Huh?
What?
Oh, I'm sorry.
Sorry! I'm really sorry!
Are you God?
God?
No, I mean, the delivery guy?
Oh, were you my customer?
Um, are you mad?
No, I'm not.
My bike slid a lot in the rain
and ruined the food.
I wrote this to say I'm sorry.
Was the food completely ruined?
If the container was just smashed a bit…
It went tumbling down.
It rolled and rolled down the hill.
I understand.
Bye, then.
Where are you going?
To buy food.
It's dangerous in this heavy rain.
It's windy too.
But I need to eat.
I'm truly sorry.
I'm just hungry.
I'm incredibly hungry.
I'm starving!
-Are you mad?
-I'm not mad.
Do you by chance like soondubu?
Soondubu?
Very much.
Got it. Please wait here.
Five minutes.
Please wait in your room!
I SLIPPED ON MY BIKE
AND DROPPED YOUR FOOD. I'M VERY SORRY.
Oh, here's your soondubu.
I made some earlier.
Have some.
-What?
-Um…
I live in Tatsumi Building
by the greenway.
It's nearby.
What?
Oh, could it be you don't trust the food?
Of course, you wouldn't. Don't worry.
There's nothing weird in it.
I'm Yun Tae-o.
I'm 26 years old,
and came to Japan almost two years ago.
I'm from Korea.
I'm not anyone suspicious.
It's delicious.
It'll energize you.
Here.
Well then, I'm truly sorry.
A sea otter?
God's soondubu.
It's warm.
It's rare to see you without an appetite.
You need your strength.
I can't drink coffee. It's too bitter.
This coffee
uses cacao, just like chocolate.
It's just like chocolate?
Even though it's not sweet?
Yeah.
It can be sweet or bitter
depending on how you use it.
Life's the same way.
It all depends on you
whether it's bitter or sweet.
I don't get it.
It's so bitter.
It's so sweet.
Now, eat your omurice too.
Thank you for the food.
I'm home, Mom.
I'm famished.
Oh, I gave away my soondubu.
I'm starving!
That face
was terrifying.
In other words,
when God talks, it's in Japanese.
Are you mad?
But his thoughts are in Korean.
It's bitter.
Oh, sorry.
Go ahead.
Thank you!
Professor Zaitsu, good morning!
Oh, good morning, Tae-o!
RESEARCH LAB
WILDLIFE CONSERVATION MAJOR
Did you sleep well,
fishes one through six?
Good morning!
Morning.
Good morning, Tae-o.
Humidity went down 2%.
Sorry.
Did you eat, Senpai?
Yeah, hey.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED. THANK YOU.
What is that?
Someone replied to me.
Oh, at your delivery job?
That's right.
It's the first reply I've ever gotten.
I was really happy.
What a nice person.
Yes--
I'm starving!
Is she a nice person?
Bravo.
"Good food is the best way to energize."
Your mom would always say that, right?
Yes.
That reminds me,
Park sent us some kimchi.
This year's kimchi tastes like
your mother's cooking too.
Yes, this is great!
I want some too.
We only got enough for me and Tae-o.
Professor, can't you go with the flow?
Because of you,
this is the only kimchi I can eat.
Do I count as a sea otter foodie,
spending five million yen a year on food?
Are you a sea otter?
Kyoshuku desuga.
You don't resemble one.
You look totally different.
Kyoshuku desu.
"Kyoshuku…"?
What's "kyoshuku"?
Oh, it means sorry or thank you.
He's sorry?
Which is it?
The samples arrived
for our Valentine's Day product!
-Whoa!
-They're here!
-Here, Boss.
-Oh, thanks.
-Here, Nishina.
-Thanks.
Red was a good choice
for the packaging. It pops.
The taste's just as good.
The strong bitter taste of the vanilla
with 72% cacao gave me goosebumps.
-It's Mahiro's masterpiece.
-Yes.
This is so good.
Anyone would be happy to receive this.
Right?
It'll energize you.
Here.
You won't see her for another six months.
Why won't you see your daughter
for six months?
May I speak to you, Mahiro?
I'd like to ask you something later.
What?
I think you should go bold
and choose this one.
But this would normally be better.
Wouldn't you prefer
something rare and precious?
I feel like our flagship product's
timeless charm is a great selling point.
Is there some kind of trouble?
A thank you gift for the soondubu.
What?
A gift to God.
A thank you for his hospitality.
If this isn't about work, then go home.
Which would you be happier to get?
You're costing us electricity, so go home.
Wait.
Wouldn't giving chocolate at this time
of the year mean something special?
VALENTINE'S DAY IN KOREA
AS IN JAPAN, WOMEN GIVE CHOCOLATES
TO THOSE THEY LIKE
Go home right now.
Why Korea?
Just because.
-What?
-What?
I live in Tatsumi Building
by the greenway.
TATSUMI BUILDING
Excuse me.
YUN
Yun.
-I'm sorry.
-What?
Did I accidentally do something again?
Oh, not at all.
I came to return the soup jar.
I see.
Kyoshuku desu.
That's what I should be saying.
It was incredibly delicious.
Really?
It was delicious and warm.
It really energized me, truly.
Thank you for the food.
Who are you?
Oh, you gave me the soondubu
the other day.
I know that.
You seem like
a different person from before,
so I was a bit surprised.
Oh, really?
Oh, this soap is…
It's not much, but I wanted to thank you.
-Well, then…
-Um, wait one second.
Let's see. Where did I put it again?
I use this soap too.
Yesterday, I used this to blow bubbles.
Wait one second.
Um, where did I put that again?
Eco-friendly soap bubbles.
-Come with me.
-What?!
Watch this.
This is…
He's a god after all.
-What?
-No, it's nothing.
These bubbles are eco-friendly,
so rest assured.
And they don't harm humans either.
You can use it as much as you want
without worrying about the environment.
Wouldn't it be nice if more
and more things were made like that?
It would be very, very nice.
I'm having japchae today.
Is that okay with you?
What?
-Actually, I think I'll go--
-It's done.
-Excuse me.
-Yes?
Are you mad--
I'm not mad!
Let's eat.
But…
Oh no, I can't understand him at all.
Oh, it's okay.
There's nothing weird in it.
Don't be mad.
Please eat.
Thank you for the food.
It's delicious!
Get energized.
Why are you smiling so much?
I'm happy.
It's been a while
since I ate with someone at home.
Time to eat.
I'm eating.
That was a great meal.
It was absolutely delicious.
Oh, now I get it.
You get mad when you're hungry.
Are you talking about me?
Did that help you
get energized?
Yes, I'm fully charged.
Cute.
Kimchi…
I said, "Do you like it?"
Yes, I like kimchi.
If there's super spicy kimchi
and slightly spicy kimchi,
which do you prefer?
The super spicy kimchi
might be hard for me to eat.
Got it.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER
Why did you keep this?
It's so poorly drawn.
The sea otter?
You were the first to reply to me.
I was happy.
So,
I like this sea otter.
It seems you like sea otters.
I love them.
I'm studying sea otters
at graduate school.
Are you studying endangered animals?
Yes.
Did you know
that sea otters are endangered?
On the 2020 Red List,
sea otters were listed
an A1 endangered animal.
A1 endangered animals
are at extremely high risk
of going extinct in the wild
in the near future.
Why do you like sea otters?
Why?
No reason.
Kids are cute.
Ghosts are scary.
It's the same idea.
I like them because I like them.
Simple as that, right?
Do you like sea otters?
-Yes.
-Really?!
We're the same, huh?
Wow, you like them too?
I mean,
sea otters are so cute.
You're so innocent.
"Innocent"?
Like a child.
True to your feelings.
That's what it means.
When I think about it,
when I was doing my part-time job today,
I was called carefree.
Does that mean the same thing?
Well…
You have a positive attitude.
That's what it means.
I have a positive attitude
and I'm true to myself.
I agree.
How old are you?
Me?
Yes, you.
-Thirty.
-And your name?
I'm Motomiya.
I mean your first name.
I'm Yuri.
Yuri.
Yuri, huh?
That's a cute name.
POLLOCK ROE PASTA
LEAVE AT DOOR
RECEIVE IN PERSON
Today's delivery is pasta.
Thank you.
Enjoy.
-Yuri, today's--
-Thank you.
She must be hungry today.
Cute.
Are you a mad Yuri today?
Or a nice Yuri?
-What?
-Hm?
NAMASTE NAAN CURRY
GET ENERGIZED!
"Get energized."
Thanks for the food.
Yeah, this is good.
Where'd you buy this?
At the food truck in the back.
The university president
told me it's good.
Even the president's looking out for you?
You're like a penguin.
An emperor penguin perhaps?
You're affectionate and true to yourself
when you express your feelings.
Hm? True to myself?
Oh, "innocent," right?
I'm innocent and carefree.
Tae-o, that's not something
to be proud of.
It's an insult.
Is it an insult?
Carefree means
you don't think about anything.
You have a positive attitude.
That's what it means.
She really is a wonderful person.
A wonderful person? Is this love?
It's not love.
Not yet.
Not yet?
I'll let you know if it turns into love.
Bravo.
-Tae-o, you start tomorrow, right?
-Yes.
I'm nervous, as if I'm the one going.
However, as Tae-o's foster parent,
I must be like the golden eagle,
starving its child so they leave the nest.
This is bad.
My nerves raised my body temperature,
making the room warmer.
Thanks, that was delicious.
Hey, do I…
What?
Do I have a habit of getting angry
-when I'm hungry?
-Yes.
I do? Since when?
Before I even met you.
So, since I was in university?
Why didn't you tell me?
You never asked.
I see.
You're always like that, Hanaoka.
Motomiya, you're so oblivious
when it comes to yourself.
What?
Yet you can read others so easily.
You think so?
I'm saying
that it really helps our company out.
You can sense how others feel
and always make a calm decision
that matches that.
That's a great advantage
for entrepreneurs.
Thanks.
-I'm back.
-Welcome back.
The purchase order for
our limited edition Valentine's Day goods
should be sent by next week, right?
Oh right, Aihara.
Send the purchase order
for Valentine's Day goods today, okay?
What?
Oh, sure.
That was today? That was a close call.
Hello?
HARMONY CARE CENTER
I use this power to protect my company.
It's for the sake of my dream.
For my employees.
But most of all…
Come in.
Ms. Motomiya.
Dad.
He got phlegm in his throat
and had trouble breathing.
Is he okay?
We sucked it out, so he's fine now.
Thank goodness.
Your daughter came to visit.
Isn't that great?
I'll excuse myself then.
-Thank you.
-Of course.
Dad, are you okay? Does it hurt?
I'm fine.
They're making a big fuss over nothing.
I need them to worry at least that much.
I guess that's true.
Oh, give me the usual smell.
Right.
Here you go.
Yes, what a nice aroma.
That's right.
We made this year's
Valentine's Day product.
Oh, show me.
Sure.
On that day 12 years ago…
Ta-da!
At the same time my father lost mobility,
I gained the ability
to hear people's thoughts.
Hey!
Yuri!
-Someone!
-Hey, come back!
Yuri!
It's okay. Dad's here to protect you.
Unfortunately,
I believe your father
will never move again.
In your father's case,
the left and right side of his brain
have suffered a stroke,
making it difficult for him
to communicate his thoughts.
Dad.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
No, Yuri.
It's not your fault.
Dad?
I'm glad you're safe, Yuri.
I can hear you.
I can hear you…
I can hear your voice, Dad.
Dad.
Here is this month's bill.
It includes today's medical expenses.
Okay.
To continue sharing a life with my father,
I need money.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
That's why I decided to use this power
to protect my company.
Because it's up to me
whether to make life bitter or sweet.
-Ms. Motomiya.
-Ms. Oki.
-Thank you for earlier.
-It's nothing.
Makoto is so blessed to have
a daughter who cares for him.
She pays so much every month,
even though there's no cure.
I feel so sorry for her.
They can't even chat when she visits--
Ms. Motomiya?
Oh, right.
Please continue to take
good care of my father.
Please come visit anytime.
-Get home safely.
-Thank you.
And yet…
There are times
when the bitterness is inevitable.
Yuri.
Yuri!
You, the cute lady over there
looking around everywhere!
Yuri, wait one second!
Yuri.
Yuri, this is great.
Today's my last day with my part-time job,
so I wanted to see you.
I'm happy I got to see you.
If you'd like, let's do it together.
What?
Huh?
Remember how the wind and rain
was really strong the other day?
Oh, the day when your bike slipped
and you couldn't deliver my food?
Because of that,
a lot of leaves flew over,
so I'm cleaning up.
Why are you doing that, Mr. Yun?
Call me Tae-o.
Why are you doing that, Tae-o?
My landlord's back hurts.
I'll show you how to do it first.
Here.
Whoa.
Now, then.
This sucks them up.
This blows a lot of wind.
Don't mix them up.
Okay.
You're doing great.
There are so many different leaves.
-Whoa.
-What?
This is a ginkgo leaf.
Wild ginkgos are endangered.
What? Is that true?
This is a dawn redwood leaf.
-Really?
-Yes.
Then…
-Is this one too?
-That's…
a common one.
I'm glad.
What?
I'm glad.
What's the matter?
Nothing.
Don't look at me.
What?
What are you doing?
Have you gone crazy?
Don't look.
Don't look at my eyes.
Um…
Please forgive me!
Wow, this is pretty.
So pretty.
What?
Oh, you're right.
These are the leaves we were cleaning up.
But now…
they've become so pretty.
Rather than bitter, make it sweet…
Thank you very much.
You've given me energy again.
Yuri, you…
are like a different person
every time we meet.
I want to know you more.
I'm really sorry.
Yuri!
Would you like to eat together tomorrow?
I'll cook.
No, I wouldn't.
Do you like rice or noodles?
I like both, but…
Rice, I guess.
Do you like curry?
Curry? Yes, I do.
Do you like fried rice?
I like fried rice.
Do you like omurice?
-I like omurice too.
-How about me?
I like…
"Me"?
Do you like me?
Excuse me.
I'm happy I got to see you.
You know, I can hear people's thoughts.
People's thoughts?
That's scary.
I…
like you.
THIS IS A SECRET,
BUT IF YOU LIKE PIBIMBAP…
GET ENERGIZED!
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER
Good morning.
-Good morning.
-Morning.
Good morning. Hello.
Are you free?
I want you to meet our new intern.
Oh, sure.
Come in.
Huh?
Yuri?
I knew we'd meet again.
Subtitle translation by: Chul Woong Kim
I've never done this before!
Let's eat.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
We don't need workers
who mix up their work and private life.
I love you.
Why does he have to work under me?
Are you drunk?
"Hear us. Hear us."
"Hear our cries."
"Our friend is trapped under a tree,
unable to move."
"The animals looked into the girl's eyes
and pleaded in their hearts."
"Save him." "Please."
"Then, the girl saved
the squirrel trapped under the tree."
"This girl has a special power."
"When she locks eyes with another,
only then can she hear
the voice in their heart."
Dolce & Chocolat. is known for
their cute and delicious
chocolate and coffee,
but they both use cacao beans
that were meant to be discarded--
We don't use cacao beans.
These shells, known as cacao pods,
hold about 30 seeds surrounded by flesh,
which we call the cacao pulp.
And this is a cacao bean.
Okay.
Boss sure is aggressive today.
Chocolate usually only uses cacao nibs,
which are cacao beans
with their husks removed.
But these discarded husks can still
be used to make delicious chocolate.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Y-Yes.
We use cacao husks
that would usually be discarded
to produce chocolate, chocolate-flavored
coffee, and other everyday goods.
I'm going out to the shop.
-See you.
-Okay.
Chocolate and coffee
made from discarded cacao.
That's my life right now.
That looks so tasty. I want some too.
No, Noa.
But you always say no.
We're not here for you today, Noa.
Why? I want some.
-I wanna eat some.
-Noa, calm down.
Can we help you, Sir?
I'm sorry.
We're here to buy a gift,
but she insists on having some too.
Mind your manners.
I want some too.
I don't have enough money to buy two.
And Noa gets cavities so easily.
Can I have one box of ten?
Um…
I also recommend this.
It's the same price as that one, but…
Then I can bring one as a gift
and take the other home.
And this one uses xylitol
instead of sugar,
so cavities aren't a concern.
Really?
She always gets cavities.
Really? This is perfect.
Hey, how does this chocolate sound?
Really? I love you, Dad!
I love you too!
Brush your teeth after, okay?
Okay.
Wow, this is incredible.
Isn't this pretty, Dad?
I'm glad you like it.
I always wanted to bring you here, Yuri.
TWELVE YEARS AGO
Oh, what?
KIRITAPPU CAPE
Dad, sea otters!
They're really here!
Oh, I see them.
Since we're here,
let's take a closer look tomorrow.
Yeah, I'd love that.
Yuri!
Ever since that accident,
I've been able to hear the thoughts of
anyone I locked eyes with.
It was confusing at first,
and my feelings were often hurt.
But I realized that it isn't all bad
once you figure out
how to properly use this power.
-Thanks.
-You're welcome.
People's thoughts
aren't always out of ill will.
-Get home safely.
-Bye-bye.
You're so good at this, Yuri.
It's almost scary
how well you can read people's feelings.
You think?
But why can't you get a boyfriend?
Is it because you're still
caught up on an ex from high school?
People's thoughts?
Yeah.
It's not like that.
But I just know…
how hard it can be to find romance
when you have this power.
When people fall in love,
they end up wishing…
To know their partner's thoughts,
even if it may hurt them.
I'm so hungry.

RECEIVE ORDER
12 MINUTES, 360 YEN
Time for food.
"This is a secret,
but if you want pibimbap,
there's a restaurant called Ondol Eatery
that tastes better."
A sea otter?
Aihara.
Yes?
You switched
the coffee bean order numbers.
How did you mix up
Colombian and Jamaican beans?
I don't think I'm suited for
tedious jobs like this.
Something with
more responsibility or meaning…
-That might--
-You can only go up one step at a time.
-What?
-Whatever job you get,
do it with positivity and grace.
-Makes sense.
-Yeah.
For starters…
Is Hanaoka interested in
anything other than work?
-Who knows?
-It's so strange.
I wonder if he has any hobbies.
Can't you just talk to him about work?
Then the conversation
won't go anywhere. Anyway--
Sorry, Kame.
-I'm clocking out.
-What?
Jeez.
Why is this here?
Seriously?
It's okay. I'll handle this.
-Thanks.
-It's fine. I'm climbing the ladder now.
I've been thinking,
aren't these better on the wall
instead of the desk?
Then, they'd be out of the way.
We should've bought those
in the first place.
You can go to lunch after your meeting.
Thank you.
-That's--
-No, Aihara.
Interrupting Boss's meal
will get you killed.
Kill--
Thanks, Hanaoka. What is this?
Convenience store by the station,
vanilla cream flavor, 124 yen.
Impressive. Thanks, as always.
And if we change all the trash cans
to the ones that hang on the walls,
it'll cost us 44,450 yen in expenses.
For now, I'll have everyone
put theirs under their desk.
Impressive. Sorry, as always.
-You'll miss your meeting.
-Oh!
I'm so hungry.
I'm so hungry!
"Pibimbap."
They meant bibimbap, right?
Ondol Eatery.
SIGNATURE DISH, BIBIMBAP
Hm?
A-OK
270 YEN
ONDOL EATERY
Let's go.
Enjoy.
Thank you for the food.
Is this made of bagasse?
It’s microwave-safe
but not oven-safe, right?
"Hope this energizes you."
"This restaurant's Korean pancakes
are good too."
Korean pancakes.
Seafood. Kimchi. Potato.
Let's get some.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED. THANK YOU.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED.
Cute.
Enjoy.
"The rapokki is to die for."
Rapokki?
That looks delicious.
I want some, but…
RAPOKKI
When you visit home,
you have to buy souvenirs, right?
You gotta think about
who to buy them for, right?
But the first person I thought of
wasn't my boyfriend.
It was my co-workers.
My mom asked me
if I wasn't getting him anything,
and that's when I remembered him.
I realized, "This is bad."
Are you listening?
Sorry, so basically,
what are you trying to say?
So, basically,
I think it's true love
when you want to buy them souvenirs.
Well, I don't have a guy
to buy souvenirs for,
nor would I buy a souvenir
as an excuse to see one.
So I don't really get it.
I guess you can't relate.
Yeah… What?
I've never had this before.
It's delicious.
Isn't it?
I got a great source of information.
Did someone suggest this place?
A food delivery guy.
He always leaves me notes.
-What?
-Yeah?
Isn't that shady?
What? Why?
That person guides me to delicious food.
He's like a god.
Don't look at me like that.
Maybe you feel a spark then.
YOUR ORDER HAS BEEN CANCELED
Why?
Why, God?
70-MINUTE WAI
60-MINUTE WAI
Why's there such a long wait?
Is it some kind of holiday today?
It's raining.
That's why it's taking so long.
I'm so hungry. Oh no, I'm so hungry.
Huh?
Huh?
What?
Oh, I'm sorry.
Sorry! I'm really sorry!
Are you God?
God?
No, I mean, the delivery guy?
Oh, were you my customer?
Um, are you mad?
No, I'm not.
My bike slid a lot in the rain
and ruined the food.
I wrote this to say I'm sorry.
Was the food completely ruined?
If the container was just smashed a bit…
It went tumbling down.
It rolled and rolled down the hill.
I understand.
Bye, then.
Where are you going?
To buy food.
It's dangerous in this heavy rain.
It's windy too.
But I need to eat.
I'm truly sorry.
I'm just hungry.
I'm incredibly hungry.
I'm starving!
-Are you mad?
-I'm not mad.
Do you by chance like soondubu?
Soondubu?
Very much.
Got it. Please wait here.
Five minutes.
Please wait in your room!
I SLIPPED ON MY BIKE
AND DROPPED YOUR FOOD. I'M VERY SORRY.
Oh, here's your soondubu.
I made some earlier.
Have some.
-What?
-Um…
I live in Tatsumi Building
by the greenway.
It's nearby.
What?
Oh, could it be you don't trust the food?
Of course, you wouldn't. Don't worry.
There's nothing weird in it.
I'm Yun Tae-o.
I'm 26 years old,
and came to Japan almost two years ago.
I'm from Korea.
I'm not anyone suspicious.
It's delicious.
It'll energize you.
Here.
Well then, I'm truly sorry.
A sea otter?
God's soondubu.
It's warm.
It's rare to see you without an appetite.
You need your strength.
I can't drink coffee. It's too bitter.
This coffee
uses cacao, just like chocolate.
It's just like chocolate?
Even though it's not sweet?
Yeah.
It can be sweet or bitter
depending on how you use it.
Life's the same way.
It all depends on you
whether it's bitter or sweet.
I don't get it.
It's so bitter.
It's so sweet.
Now, eat your omurice too.
Thank you for the food.
I'm home, Mom.
I'm famished.
Oh, I gave away my soondubu.
I'm starving!
That face
was terrifying.
In other words,
when God talks, it's in Japanese.
Are you mad?
But his thoughts are in Korean.
It's bitter.
Oh, sorry.
Go ahead.
Thank you!
Professor Zaitsu, good morning!
Oh, good morning, Tae-o!
RESEARCH LAB
WILDLIFE CONSERVATION MAJOR
Did you sleep well,
fishes one through six?
Good morning!
Morning.
Good morning, Tae-o.
Humidity went down 2%.
Sorry.
Did you eat, Senpai?
Yeah, hey.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER.
I FEEL ENERGIZED. THANK YOU.
What is that?
Someone replied to me.
Oh, at your delivery job?
That's right.
It's the first reply I've ever gotten.
I was really happy.
What a nice person.
Yes--
I'm starving!
Is she a nice person?
Bravo.
"Good food is the best way to energize."
Your mom would always say that, right?
Yes.
That reminds me,
Park sent us some kimchi.
This year's kimchi tastes like
your mother's cooking too.
Yes, this is great!
I want some too.
We only got enough for me and Tae-o.
Professor, can't you go with the flow?
Because of you,
this is the only kimchi I can eat.
Do I count as a sea otter foodie,
spending five million yen a year on food?
Are you a sea otter?
Kyoshuku desuga.
You don't resemble one.
You look totally different.
Kyoshuku desu.
"Kyoshuku…"?
What's "kyoshuku"?
Oh, it means sorry or thank you.
He's sorry?
Which is it?
The samples arrived
for our Valentine's Day product!
-Whoa!
-They're here!
-Here, Boss.
-Oh, thanks.
-Here, Nishina.
-Thanks.
Red was a good choice
for the packaging. It pops.
The taste's just as good.
The strong bitter taste of the vanilla
with 72% cacao gave me goosebumps.
-It's Mahiro's masterpiece.
-Yes.
This is so good.
Anyone would be happy to receive this.
Right?
It'll energize you.
Here.
You won't see her for another six months.
Why won't you see your daughter
for six months?
May I speak to you, Mahiro?
I'd like to ask you something later.
What?
I think you should go bold
and choose this one.
But this would normally be better.
Wouldn't you prefer
something rare and precious?
I feel like our flagship product's
timeless charm is a great selling point.
Is there some kind of trouble?
A thank you gift for the soondubu.
What?
A gift to God.
A thank you for his hospitality.
If this isn't about work, then go home.
Which would you be happier to get?
You're costing us electricity, so go home.
Wait.
Wouldn't giving chocolate at this time
of the year mean something special?
VALENTINE'S DAY IN KOREA
AS IN JAPAN, WOMEN GIVE CHOCOLATES
TO THOSE THEY LIKE
Go home right now.
Why Korea?
Just because.
-What?
-What?
I live in Tatsumi Building
by the greenway.
TATSUMI BUILDING
Excuse me.
YUN
Yun.
-I'm sorry.
-What?
Did I accidentally do something again?
Oh, not at all.
I came to return the soup jar.
I see.
Kyoshuku desu.
That's what I should be saying.
It was incredibly delicious.
Really?
It was delicious and warm.
It really energized me, truly.
Thank you for the food.
Who are you?
Oh, you gave me the soondubu
the other day.
I know that.
You seem like
a different person from before,
so I was a bit surprised.
Oh, really?
Oh, this soap is…
It's not much, but I wanted to thank you.
-Well, then…
-Um, wait one second.
Let's see. Where did I put it again?
I use this soap too.
Yesterday, I used this to blow bubbles.
Wait one second.
Um, where did I put that again?
Eco-friendly soap bubbles.
-Come with me.
-What?!
Watch this.
This is…
He's a god after all.
-What?
-No, it's nothing.
These bubbles are eco-friendly,
so rest assured.
And they don't harm humans either.
You can use it as much as you want
without worrying about the environment.
Wouldn't it be nice if more
and more things were made like that?
It would be very, very nice.
I'm having japchae today.
Is that okay with you?
What?
-Actually, I think I'll go--
-It's done.
-Excuse me.
-Yes?
Are you mad--
I'm not mad!
Let's eat.
But…
Oh no, I can't understand him at all.
Oh, it's okay.
There's nothing weird in it.
Don't be mad.
Please eat.
Thank you for the food.
It's delicious!
Get energized.
Why are you smiling so much?
I'm happy.
It's been a while
since I ate with someone at home.
Time to eat.
I'm eating.
That was a great meal.
It was absolutely delicious.
Oh, now I get it.
You get mad when you're hungry.
Are you talking about me?
Did that help you
get energized?
Yes, I'm fully charged.
Cute.
Kimchi…
I said, "Do you like it?"
Yes, I like kimchi.
If there's super spicy kimchi
and slightly spicy kimchi,
which do you prefer?
The super spicy kimchi
might be hard for me to eat.
Got it.
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER
Why did you keep this?
It's so poorly drawn.
The sea otter?
You were the first to reply to me.
I was happy.
So,
I like this sea otter.
It seems you like sea otters.
I love them.
I'm studying sea otters
at graduate school.
Are you studying endangered animals?
Yes.
Did you know
that sea otters are endangered?
On the 2020 Red List,
sea otters were listed
an A1 endangered animal.
A1 endangered animals
are at extremely high risk
of going extinct in the wild
in the near future.
Why do you like sea otters?
Why?
No reason.
Kids are cute.
Ghosts are scary.
It's the same idea.
I like them because I like them.
Simple as that, right?
Do you like sea otters?
-Yes.
-Really?!
We're the same, huh?
Wow, you like them too?
I mean,
sea otters are so cute.
You're so innocent.
"Innocent"?
Like a child.
True to your feelings.
That's what it means.
When I think about it,
when I was doing my part-time job today,
I was called carefree.
Does that mean the same thing?
Well…
You have a positive attitude.
That's what it means.
I have a positive attitude
and I'm true to myself.
I agree.
How old are you?
Me?
Yes, you.
-Thirty.
-And your name?
I'm Motomiya.
I mean your first name.
I'm Yuri.
Yuri.
Yuri, huh?
That's a cute name.
POLLOCK ROE PASTA
LEAVE AT DOOR
RECEIVE IN PERSON
Today's delivery is pasta.
Thank you.
Enjoy.
-Yuri, today's--
-Thank you.
She must be hungry today.
Cute.
Are you a mad Yuri today?
Or a nice Yuri?
-What?
-Hm?
NAMASTE NAAN CURRY
GET ENERGIZED!
"Get energized."
Thanks for the food.
Yeah, this is good.
Where'd you buy this?
At the food truck in the back.
The university president
told me it's good.
Even the president's looking out for you?
You're like a penguin.
An emperor penguin perhaps?
You're affectionate and true to yourself
when you express your feelings.
Hm? True to myself?
Oh, "innocent," right?
I'm innocent and carefree.
Tae-o, that's not something
to be proud of.
It's an insult.
Is it an insult?
Carefree means
you don't think about anything.
You have a positive attitude.
That's what it means.
She really is a wonderful person.
A wonderful person? Is this love?
It's not love.
Not yet.
Not yet?
I'll let you know if it turns into love.
Bravo.
-Tae-o, you start tomorrow, right?
-Yes.
I'm nervous, as if I'm the one going.
However, as Tae-o's foster parent,
I must be like the golden eagle,
starving its child so they leave the nest.
This is bad.
My nerves raised my body temperature,
making the room warmer.
Thanks, that was delicious.
Hey, do I…
What?
Do I have a habit of getting angry
-when I'm hungry?
-Yes.
I do? Since when?
Before I even met you.
So, since I was in university?
Why didn't you tell me?
You never asked.
I see.
You're always like that, Hanaoka.
Motomiya, you're so oblivious
when it comes to yourself.
What?
Yet you can read others so easily.
You think so?
I'm saying
that it really helps our company out.
You can sense how others feel
and always make a calm decision
that matches that.
That's a great advantage
for entrepreneurs.
Thanks.
-I'm back.
-Welcome back.
The purchase order for
our limited edition Valentine's Day goods
should be sent by next week, right?
Oh right, Aihara.
Send the purchase order
for Valentine's Day goods today, okay?
What?
Oh, sure.
That was today? That was a close call.
Hello?
HARMONY CARE CENTER
I use this power to protect my company.
It's for the sake of my dream.
For my employees.
But most of all…
Come in.
Ms. Motomiya.
Dad.
He got phlegm in his throat
and had trouble breathing.
Is he okay?
We sucked it out, so he's fine now.
Thank goodness.
Your daughter came to visit.
Isn't that great?
I'll excuse myself then.
-Thank you.
-Of course.
Dad, are you okay? Does it hurt?
I'm fine.
They're making a big fuss over nothing.
I need them to worry at least that much.
I guess that's true.
Oh, give me the usual smell.
Right.
Here you go.
Yes, what a nice aroma.
That's right.
We made this year's
Valentine's Day product.
Oh, show me.
Sure.
On that day 12 years ago…
Ta-da!
At the same time my father lost mobility,
I gained the ability
to hear people's thoughts.
Hey!
Yuri!
-Someone!
-Hey, come back!
Yuri!
It's okay. Dad's here to protect you.
Unfortunately,
I believe your father
will never move again.
In your father's case,
the left and right side of his brain
have suffered a stroke,
making it difficult for him
to communicate his thoughts.
Dad.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
No, Yuri.
It's not your fault.
Dad?
I'm glad you're safe, Yuri.
I can hear you.
I can hear you…
I can hear your voice, Dad.
Dad.
Here is this month's bill.
It includes today's medical expenses.
Okay.
To continue sharing a life with my father,
I need money.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
That's why I decided to use this power
to protect my company.
Because it's up to me
whether to make life bitter or sweet.
-Ms. Motomiya.
-Ms. Oki.
-Thank you for earlier.
-It's nothing.
Makoto is so blessed to have
a daughter who cares for him.
She pays so much every month,
even though there's no cure.
I feel so sorry for her.
They can't even chat when she visits--
Ms. Motomiya?
Oh, right.
Please continue to take
good care of my father.
Please come visit anytime.
-Get home safely.
-Thank you.
And yet…
There are times
when the bitterness is inevitable.
Yuri.
Yuri!
You, the cute lady over there
looking around everywhere!
Yuri, wait one second!
Yuri.
Yuri, this is great.
Today's my last day with my part-time job,
so I wanted to see you.
I'm happy I got to see you.
If you'd like, let's do it together.
What?
Huh?
Remember how the wind and rain
was really strong the other day?
Oh, the day when your bike slipped
and you couldn't deliver my food?
Because of that,
a lot of leaves flew over,
so I'm cleaning up.
Why are you doing that, Mr. Yun?
Call me Tae-o.
Why are you doing that, Tae-o?
My landlord's back hurts.
I'll show you how to do it first.
Here.
Whoa.
Now, then.
This sucks them up.
This blows a lot of wind.
Don't mix them up.
Okay.
You're doing great.
There are so many different leaves.
-Whoa.
-What?
This is a ginkgo leaf.
Wild ginkgos are endangered.
What? Is that true?
This is a dawn redwood leaf.
-Really?
-Yes.
Then…
-Is this one too?
-That's…
a common one.
I'm glad.
What?
I'm glad.
What's the matter?
Nothing.
Don't look at me.
What?
What are you doing?
Have you gone crazy?
Don't look.
Don't look at my eyes.
Um…
Please forgive me!
Wow, this is pretty.
So pretty.
What?
Oh, you're right.
These are the leaves we were cleaning up.
But now…
they've become so pretty.
Rather than bitter, make it sweet…
Thank you very much.
You've given me energy again.
Yuri, you…
are like a different person
every time we meet.
I want to know you more.
I'm really sorry.
Yuri!
Would you like to eat together tomorrow?
I'll cook.
No, I wouldn't.
Do you like rice or noodles?
I like both, but…
Rice, I guess.
Do you like curry?
Curry? Yes, I do.
Do you like fried rice?
I like fried rice.
Do you like omurice?
-I like omurice too.
-How about me?
I like…
"Me"?
Do you like me?
Excuse me.
I'm happy I got to see you.
You know, I can hear people's thoughts.
People's thoughts?
That's scary.
I…
like you.
THIS IS A SECRET,
BUT IF YOU LIKE PIBIMBAP…
GET ENERGIZED!
BEST BIBIMBAP EVER
Good morning.
-Good morning.
-Morning.
Good morning. Hello.
Are you free?
I want you to meet our new intern.
Oh, sure.
Come in.
Huh?
Yuri?
I knew we'd meet again.
Subtitle translation by: Chul Woong Kim
I've never done this before!
Let's eat.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
We don't need workers
who mix up their work and private life.
I love you.
Why does he have to work under me?
Are you drunk?
