“Oh, you’re right, Min-joon I remember that!”
“I feel a bit aard to speak with you informally like this”

The two looked at each other with an eently
Min-joon asked in a calm voice, “How come you contacted me out of the blue?”
“Sorry I know I’ive you a call like this, but I suddenly wanted to tell soht of someone who could understand me the most, you came to mind It’s funny, isn’t it?”
“It’s not funny I’rateful that you contacted hly ofyour school days, you always had a good na our friends”
“How did you feel about my school days?” Min-joon asked curiously
Min-sok’s o, but it was alo for Min-joon So, Min-joon had a faint memory of his middle school days
Min-sok looked embarrassed for a moment as if it was hard for him to respond then slowly said, “You were unusual You were ordinary like the others, but you didn’t get easily excited or overdo it like other kids I would say you looked like a typical Korean noble success because I thought you would do hatever you do”
“Thanks for your praise, but I feel embarrassed to hear that”
“I know, but at the end of the day, you have made it People in the world listen to you when you say so Do you knohat happened to my restaurant when you posted a comment about it? My restaurant was fully packed with customers after that They even stood in a line for their turn”
“I really enjoyed your Pyongyang cold noodles, and they will duly appreciate its true value And I believe so”
“I believed so I believed,” Min-sok muttered with a bitter voice He stared at the table for a moment then opened his ony
“But that’s not what happened People don’t appreciate the taste of the noodles, to my surprise Even those who think they know its taste are often wrong Only a few days ago,like, ‘I really don’t knohat Pyongyang cold noodles taste like’ Do you knohat kind of feedback coht now after you visited s like, ‘Wow, Min-joon has found a good hidden restaurant!’ They are showing reactions like that now”

The taste of the noodles really sucked after the restaurant changed hands Don’t go there’ Min-joon, do you kno angry I was to read such comments?”
“I know When it comes to bad comments, I’m as sick and tired of it as you are”
“To be honest with you, I’m still not that confident What they trust is what you say, not the taste ofcold noodles When I think about that, I just wonder what the hell I’ noas proud of my chef career, and I wanted to be proud of my job, but I can’t because nobody really appreciates its true taste What the hell a?”
It looked like Min-sok was about to cry anytiht have been crying since his face was turning reddish
Min-joon quietly put his hand on his shoulder and said, “I know”
“What do you mean?”
“I know the true value of your cold noodles It’s too beautiful a treasure for you to let go of it I know it’sof tens of millions of dollars”
Min-joon s sorry for his current situation
“Isn’t that enough to encourage your pride?”
