  1. I'm going to try to make the soup. I make no promises though. The broth already had a tragic accident. (It seems to be a broth thing with me.)

    My refrigerator does not look remotely as neat as Seri's does. Did Captain Ri make the banchan too? He seems like a man of many talents. Did I miss the scene with him making noodles by hand or did I imagine that?

  2. Let us know how the soup goes, though I'm sorry to hear about your broth.

    That's a good question about the banchan. That's a lot of work, which is why I think a lot of people buy it. Like in Crash Course for Romance.

    I think Captain Ri makes the noodles in the earlier episode in North Korea, when he makes noodle soup for Se Ri, along with freshly brewed coffee.
