Episode 24

When Kang Jin looked at the ghosts with surprised eyes, they were looking inside the store.

Bae Yong-soo poked Kang-jin at them as they seemed to be blankly looking inside the store.

“Accept guests.”

“That’s… … a ghost… …

“I am a ghost too and there are ghosts all over this place

hey.”

Kang Jin hesitated for a moment at Bae Yong Soo’s words.

‘I’m going crazy. Why didn’t they do the present properly?’

I’m somewhat used to seeing ghosts in person now, but… … seeing ghosts that pale like that for the first time was incredibly scary.

Kang Jin hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath, picked up the bottle of soju, and put it in his mouth.

Gulp! Gulp!

After taking two large sips, Kang Jin sat up and approached the ghosts.

The ghosts were an adult man, a woman, and two children who looked to be elementary school students.

‘Could it be a family ghost?’

As he was thinking that, the man looked at Kang Jin.

“I came because they said I could eat here.”

“Please sit over here.”

At Kang Jin’s words, the man took the woman and the children and sat down in the empty seat.

“Then what would you like to give me?”

At Kang Jin’s words, the man looked at the woman and children and then opened his mouth.

“Can I have pork belly?”

“Pork belly?”

“Yes. The kids… … like samgyeopsal.”

A man with a voice full of tears

Kang Jin nodded at the sight.

“All right.”

After receiving the order, Kang Jin gestured to Bae Yong Soo as he headed to the kitchen. Bae Yong Soo got up and followed him into the kitchen.

“Why are you helping me?”

“He asked for pork belly.”

“All you have to do is roast it. And add green onions.”

While talking, Bae Yong-soo was on one side

He took out the portable burner and turned on the grill.

Then he shouted at the ghost family.

“Would you like to cook it yourself? Or would you like me to cook it for you?”

“I’ll grill it and eat it.”

“yes.”

As Bae Yong-soo prepared vegetables to go with the dish, Kang-jin asked quietly.

“Why are those people like that?”

“what?”

“Why isn’t it in human form?”

At Kang Jin’s words, Bae Yong Soo glanced at them and said.

“That’s because he died not long ago.”

“Dead?”

“Looking at his appearance, he has been dead for less than three days.”

“Three days?”

Bae Yong-soo said while looking at Kang-jin who was looking puzzled.

“When a person dies, the soul and body are connected for three days. That’s why they are half ghosts.”

“Three days?”

Bae Yong-su nodded at Kang Jin’s words and muttered while looking at the ghosts.

“By the way, it’s a little pitiful.”

“why?”

“It looks like the family is in the same room… … If they came here, it looks like they didn’t even have a proper funeral.”

“funeral?”

“When someone dies, a funeral is held for three days… … During that time, the deceased stays at the funeral and eats food. But if they come here, there must be no one to hold the funeral. At least I ate well at the funeral.”

“okay?”

“Then! He was a chef at the famous Unamjeong restaurant in Korea… … The maid personally prepared the funeral food and served it to the guests. At that time… …

Kang Jin pointed a knife at Bae Yong Soo, who was trying to speak again as if he were a dead ghost who couldn’t speak.

“Cut it quickly. There’s not much time.”

At Kang Jin’s words, Bae Yong Soo glanced at the time.

<12:15>

Even if you start baking now, there won’t be much time left to eat the food.

“Well, who would I pity while wandering this world? I am the most pitiful.”

Bae Yong-soo muttered softly and quickly began cutting vegetables with a knife. Kang Jin watched him.

I caught a glimpse of the family ghosts.

Then he opened the refrigerator and took out a row of Vienna sausages.

Sasa sak!

Kang Jin-i cut the sausages and fried them in a frying pan, then added the onions and green onions that Bae Yong-su had prepared.

Then, he poured tomato sauce at the end. Kang Jin, who had made such a simple stir-fried sausage and vegetables, also known as ‘Soya’, put it on a plate.

It’s simple, but it’ll be delicious.

This is because it was made from a recipe in the cooking studio.

Kang Jin, who had brought a burner and pork belly on a tray, served them to the table.

“I thought it wouldn’t go well with pork belly, but I made some stir-fried sausages because I thought the kids would like them.”

“thank you.”

At the man’s words, Kang Jin turned on the burner and stepped back.

“Would you like a bottle of soju?”

“Can I drink soju?”

“Of course. I’m already eating.”

When Kang Jin pointed around, the man smiled awkwardly and nodded.

“Then… … please give me a bottle of soju.”

At the man’s words, Kang Jin brought him some soju and a glass.

Meanwhile, as the woman placed the meat on the grill, it began to cook with a sizzling sound.

“Come on… let’s eat.”

At the woman’s words, the children began to eat the fried sausages.

Kang Jin, who was watching it, came into the kitchen after losing his appetite. Bae Yong Soo was cleaning up.

“What happens to them?”

“After three days, a staff member from the afterlife will come and take you away.”

“Three days later?”

“Usually I put on makeup after three days.

Because. If you put makeup on it or bury it in the ground before that, the staff will come and pick it up at least three days in advance.”

“Then what do they do for three days?”

“I’ll go around the places I used to live in or places related to it.”

“Poor thing.”

“It’s from now on that you’ll know whether you’ll really feel sorry or not.”

“why?”

“If the staff doesn’t take us… …we’ll be in this situation.”

When he heard that he would become a wandering ghost in this world, Kang Jin looked at his ghost family with a stern face and asked.

“Why isn’t the staff coming?”

“If I knew that, would I still be doing this?”

“I don’t know?”

“I don’t know.”

I cleaned the kitchen with a cold face.

Dunn Bae Yong-soo saw the ghost family.

Then he opened his mouth.

” one.”

“huh?”

“They say that if you have a grudge, it’s too heavy to ascend. That’s why you become a ghost.”

“Is it possible? You don’t know the details either, do you?”

“I heard it too. But

No one knows why they cannot ascend.”

“You don’t know even though I’m Korean?”

At Kang Jin’s words, Bae Yong Soo paused for a moment. Then he looked at Kang Jin.

“What is your biggest regret in life so far?”

“regret?”

“Yeah. Tell me.”

“well……

Kang Jin’s face hardened as he tried to recall his memories. After a moment, he opened his mouth.

“I got annoyed with my mom….”

“petulance?”

“In the morning… … Mom was upset because I woke her up late. I was five minutes late… … I could have just smiled and said it was okay… …

When I was a sophomore in high school, 18 years old, my mom woke me up 5 minutes late one morning.

I was annoyed because I was late for school. Just 5 minutes… … Even though it was just 5 minutes, my mom wanted me to sleep in a little longer.

And that day, Kang Jin heard from his homeroom teacher.

My mom and dad passed away in an accident… … .

And that day’s irritation became a great pain to Kang-jin. It was because of the last words he said to his mother.

-If I’m late for school, it’s all my mom’s fault

Hey

‘Why… why couldn’t I say thank you, I love you?’

As Kang Jin muttered to himself, Bae Yong Soo spoke.

“That could be one thing, or something else?”

“Why couldn’t I swear at my relatives?”

“Bad 2”

“I think I should have cursed a little when I was sent to the orphanage.”

“What else?”

“I can’t think of anything else.”

“But I guess it still exists?”

“I guess so.”

Bae Yong-soo nodded at Kang Jin’s words.

“There are more than one or two things that a person will regret in life. Which of them is

I don’t know if it will work out.”

“I see.”

“So… … that’s why there are so many ghosts.”

Bae Yong-soo continued speaking while looking at the ghosts inside the restaurant.

“They all don’t know what their own grudge is.”

“I need to let go of my anger, but I don’t know what anger is?”

“That’s why it’s difficult for ghosts to ascend

“I’m lucky.”

Bae Yong-soo shook his head, looked at the time, and went out alone. He too had to eat and drink until one o’clock, so he couldn’t waste his time carelessly.

Kang Jin-do, who was watching Bae Yong-soo like that, came out alone and joined the ghosts and started drinking soju.

As I was drinking and listening to the ghosts talking, it was already 12:55.

As the pre-set alarm began to ring, a strong earthquake occurred.

“It’s 12:55. Everyone, please finish what you’re eating.”

At Kang Jin’s words, the ghosts quickly ate and drank. Then, one by one, they got up from their seats and went outside, and Kang Jin saw his ghost family.

They too stopped eating and got up from their seats.

“Did you enjoy the meal?”

“It was delicious. How much

“Right?”

“Will you pay?”

The man looked at him with a puzzled look at Kang Jin’s words.

“I ate it, so I have to pay.”

With that, the ghost took a card out of his pocket.

“They said I could do the math with this… …

‘card?’

The ghost carries a card

It was my first time seeing that. No, it was my first time seeing a ghost trying to give me money.

He received a card from Kang Jin.

‘As expected, it’s JS Finance.’

Kang Jin, who received the card, said.

“Our store does not set prices separately. We only accept what our customers give us. We accept whatever you want to give us.

“You can just give it to me.”

“Do you take whatever money they give you at the restaurant?”

“Our restaurant is for the dead. And most of the dead don’t have money. So we take whatever is given to us.”

“Then… … I’ll pay 48,000 won, including 30,000 won for the pork belly and 8,000 won for two bottles of soju.”

Kang Jin receives the card from the ghost’s words

After a moment, Ko said.

“In the provinces, they still charge 3,000 won for a bottle of soju, so I’ll charge 3,000 won too. And pork belly is 7,000 won, and soya is 10,000 won. Just charge 5,000 won.”

Kang Jin paid 32,000 won with a credit card.

Knock knock! Knock knock!

When the receipt came out of the card machine, Kang Jin gave it to the man along with the card.

The crab stuck out.

“You will have a lot to spend money on when you go to the afterlife. Use it sparingly.”

“Do you know… what happens when you go to the afterlife?”

“How could I, a human, know that? The ghosts here have never been to the afterlife, so they wouldn’t know either.”

“person?”

The man asked urgently at the word “person.”

“Are you human?”

Since it was a restaurant frequented by ghosts, it seemed like they thought the owner was also a ghost.

“yes.”

“How can a person feed ghosts… …?”

“It just happened that way.”

“Then I have a favor to ask.”

“ask?”

“Yes. That’s it.

Hwaaaaak!

The moment the man was about to say something, he and his family ghosts disappeared.

As soon as 1 o’clock struck, they disappeared.

Kang Jin, who was looking at the disappeared ghosts, opened his mouth.

“He’s still inside. I don’t know what you’re asking for, but… … Please come back tomorrow evening at 11 o’clock.

I’ll listen to it and decide then. Oh! And if you have nowhere to go, stay here. It’ll be more comfortable here than wandering around outside.”

Kang Jin stopped talking and started to clean up the inside of the store after looking at the place where the ghosts of the family had been.
