DELICIOUS RENDEZVOUS

After a successful lunchtime run, the crew sells potato cheese balls and fried Korean sandlance, in an effort to promote consumption of Korean sandlance and so-called “ugly potatoes” which are potatoes that lack commercial value but are totally consumable.

The crew goes to Jangsu, where apple farms have taken a hit from the typhoons. They sell apple pizza as a way to encourage consumers to find ways to eat apples with scars and bruises in other ways, and Korean beef rice soup, to encourage the consumption of less-popular parts of Korean beef.

This week, they visit Jangsu which is famous for its Korean beef and apples. Jong Won visits a farmer and finds out what difficulties they're having currently. Se Hyeong, Dong Jun, and Hee Chul also come up with creative recipes using Jangsu's Hongno apples. Moreover, you can find out ways to enjoy the nonpreferred parts of beef.

This week's destination is Yeongcheon, a city of garlic and Korean pork. The garlic farmers here are having a hard time due to the price drop caused by overproduction.
