Living in a Garage With an Alien Car

Jin Gi-hun, who smiled broadly, quickly snatched the bottle and poured the glass as he was about to pour the makgeolli.

Wouldn’t it be better to drink alcohol?

“I will follow you. I’m sorry I owe you so much…”

“Oh, that’s good.”

When Jin Ki-hun drinks a lot, unlike usual, his friend shakes his head, saying that he will call a substitute today.

Cucumbers, lettuce, carrots, onions, and sesame seeds sprinkled on top with garnish.

The appearance of the red melmuchim is beautiful.

Release salivary glands before taking by mouth.

‘I hope it’s not too spicy, sour or irritating…’

My concerns were unfounded.

Crunchy.

The freshness of the vegetables was alive and well.

Sweet and sour seasoning itself.

Excessive sourness and sweetness can harm the original taste, but it is not too much and is suitable as a side dish.

That’s why you keep reaching out. I can’t stop.

The main ingredient, anchovies called mel, was much larger than the commonly known anchovies and was thicker.

Here,

I put a large piece of melissa and seasoned salad on the lettuce that came out as a side dish, and after adding a spoonful of rice, I raised a glass with my other hand.

“Now, shall we have a drink?”

“Maybe? Wow, does Jo Hoon-nim know how to eat?”

sh*t.

I happily clinked the glasses, emptied them, and opened my mouth wide to stuff the mellow seasoning into my mouth.

clap clap. mess. gulp.

“hmm···.”

There was no fishy smell to worry about, and the watery texture of the mel mixed with the rice grains to create a flavor.

The bones of large anchovies are coated and mixed with various vegetables, so the harmony between sea creatures and land plants is excellent.

anyway,

It’s a taste that makes you keep eating it, so I’ve eaten it like that a few times.

I have already emptied three cans of makgeolli.

This main dish didn’t even come out, which is a big deal. big deal.

I left about half of the gong-gisbap.

To eat with Melguk.

The two of us are sifting through the remaining mel seasoning with makgeolli.

“I went to Melguk and came out of the cut-out soup.”

The timing is awesome too.

I was craving soup.

bubbling bubbling.

I set down the mel-guk and beef stew soup, which were still bubbling upward.

Both were in an earthen pot.

‘This is soup, not soup…’

anyway,

Seeing the clear boiling soup made me feel refreshed. it is itself

Both are simplistic content.

Salt-pickled dried cabbage, well-groomed large mel and horse mackerel (horse mackerel).

Small jars of pickled vegetables were placed between the tables so that guests could eat according to their taste, and minced garlic and finely chopped Cheongyang peppers were placed in the smaller earthenware pot.

slurp.

First of all, I ate the soup slightly with the intention of adding it according to my taste.

“oh!”

Cold soup is not bad.

Still, it could be fishy or greasy, so I added minced garlic and Cheongyang pepper little by little.

This is because adding too much can spoil the original taste.

I ate the broth once again.

“hmm.. “

Garlic made it even cooler, and Cheongyang pepper added sharpness.

It seems that the fresh cabbage and fresh melissa in good condition add to the rich taste.

The size of the mel was well over 10 cm, and the head and intestines were removed to realize that anchovies are also fish.

“Wow, that’s really sweet. I’ll be looking for a lot for hangovers as well.”

I rolled up the leftover rice bowl and ate it slowly as a snack.

Mel, who was plump in the clear broth, was also very savory.

Melguk (melguk) has no broth.

Water, salt and mel are all.

This means that Melguk dominates the taste.

“Shouldn’t you try the gakjaegi soup as well?”

I’m sorry, Jin Ki-hun, who didn’t even open a spoonful while I was tasting Melguk.

I’m so sorry…

“Why, eat it.”

“It is something I eat every day. For me, seasoned mel is enough for me today. Come on, try it.”

Why am I so grateful to Jin Ki-hoon, who removes the side dishes in front of me and pushes the earthenware pot with beef stew into the middle?

Keep coming in, coming in, the delicious smell keeps coming in.

It is Jeju dialect.

The standard language hints at horse mackerel.

It was the name of a fish he had never heard of before, and it was a fish he had never seen before.

It has a similar appearance to mackerel, but is often caught in Jeju Island and has a low fishy smell. It is a fish that Jeju people often eat.

The recipe is done by cutting the well-trimmed horse mackerel into pieces, adding eolgari cabbage and adding soybean paste, just like melduk.

Just like Melguk, it’s really simple.

It is said that Jeju Island ate fish almost as soup.

The shape and size of the well-cooked fish pieces are just like mackerel, so it is difficult to eat the broth.

Because there is no high school for fear of corruption.

Because of the strong fishy smell of mackerel, isn’t it boiled or stewed with strong seasoning?

Unlike Melguk this time, I added minced garlic and lots of red pepper this time.

slurp.

“hmm…”

good night. Cool. It smells fishy, but this much is aegyo.

I ate the dried-up cabbage and the well-ripened horse mackerel with a spoon.

“!”

not dirty at all

If you add a lot of red pepper powder, you can feel the spicy umami taste that goes well with the soybean paste, and you can feel the deep taste of the savory fish.

I whipped up half of the remaining rice.

Melguk and gakjaeguk also had some broth left, but the ingredients were all gone as snacks.

Jin Ki-hoon, who tasted the ratio of minced garlic and red pepper, gave a thumbs up.

“The Art of the Liver.”

“Turn it off. I had a good dinner.”

#

We moved to a nearby beer house to refresh our palate.

I was full, so I asked to go to the coffee shop run by instructor Jin, but he led me to a nearby craft beer house, saying that there were places to drink even if I was full.

craft beer.

If it is released in a standardized, large factory, there is no choice about the taste, so you have no choice but to eat it unconditionally.

There were complaints like this, but at some point, they started to appear one by one in the neighborhood.

It’s a craft brewery.

A hall with an exotic atmosphere different from that of Jeju Island.

There are also bar tables, so you can see people having a mixed drink.

There are more than 10 craft beers in total.

Still, since I came to Jeju Island, I ordered Hallasan Wheat Beer and sat at the bar table.

Ordered two beers and snacks.

The side dishes are, of course, Jeju.

I’m so full I can’t even eat another snack.

By the way, I don’t usually drink, is that okay?

“Kihun, did you eat more than usual today? are you okay?”

“hehehehe, yes. You can just call the agent. Now eat slowly.”

“yes.”

Jin Ki-hun, who comfortably placed an order as if he were a regular at this place.

While I waited, my gaze went to the street outside the window.

It was dusk, and darkness fell on the streets.

The bright lights in the store leaked out and dimly illuminated the dark night street, but unlike the nighttime streets of the city center, it was quiet and leisurely.

After a while.

A strong beer was placed in front of the table in a round, deep wine glass.

Two pieces of an inch, well-roasted and with the whole body bent, came out.

An inch of salty me was coming up.

I shook my hands and tore an inch.

Then, before even drinking beer, he bit into one of the pieces of the torso he had torn first.

mumble, mumble.

“joy..”

The salty gravy oozing out of the thick cutlet made me nod my head.

Red pepper paste and mayonnaise paste, as if to eat according to the taste.

There were two sauces, but it was delicious just chewing on it.

I had a glass of craft beer.

A 300cc glass that is good for moderate consumption.

It’s good without burden.

There were a lot of 500cc or 1000cc, so I always left it, and it cooled down quickly, so the durability of the taste fell.

I don’t know how uneconomical it is.

300cc is good because there is no such burden.

If it cools down quickly, you can eat it again.

jump.

I drank a little beer.

The tangy carbonic acid stung the neck, and the scent of alcohol and barley stimulated the five senses.

Craft beers have a higher alcohol content than regular beers.

Most were above 5 degrees.

One craft beer was so strong that I didn’t even drink soju.

Hallasan wheat beer is the same.

From noble mtl dot com

It was refreshing and cool like a wheat town.

The colder it is, the better it is to pass the throat.

The optimum temperature for drinking beer is between 6 and 10 degrees Celsius, right?

“Kyaa! It’s really good for mouthfeel.”

The temperature could go down even more.

The tea tastes even better.

It’s good to float thin ice.

“thank god. The beer I often drink suits my taste.. as expected..”

“All people have the same taste, right? Anyway, thanks to today, I tried Jeju Island’s local food… Thank you.”

jump.

Silently, Jin Ki-hun drank down Hallasan wheat beer.

“Hyung-nim, I’m 30 years old this year, can I call you hyung-nim?”

Even while eating makgeolli earlier, it seems like he briefly called me hyung-nim.

Isn’t it strange that we are told not to do that here?

Not even Hong Gil-dong.

“Yes, I do.”

“Then, Hoon-hyung, please speak comfortably, from now on.”

“hahahahaha, I will do that. I really like Ki-hoon because he is friendly.”

“I had a brother the same age as you.”

“!”

was there?

What kind of thunderbolt is this?

“Brother. If I were alive, I would be 33 now…”

“ah…”

I see. There was a reason he did me a favor.

For a moment, I looked stupid as I doubted what the intention was.

“My mother and aunt said they were surprised that I looked so much like my older brother.”

“ah…”

“..It was a traffic accident.”

“ah…”

I couldn’t ask anything.

Right now, just listening to Ki-hoon’s story seemed like the best way and comfort.

“After graduating from a prestigious university in Seoul, I was about to get a job at a large company…”

“I see…”

“So I settled here to be with my mother instead of leaving Jeju Island. Because my mother suffered so much.”

“..well done.”

“That’s why my aunt came down here too. It’s also because of my mother, and it’s both a job and a job..”

“Yeah.. I think it’s good to live close to each other and depend on each other like this.”

“older brother. Please stay in Jeju Island for a while. yes?”

I’m really comfortable, but there’s no reason to leave soon.

Because Jeju Island is vast and has many things to do and eat.

“That…yes. so what?”

“However, my family won’t burden me. If you are uncomfortable at any time, please tell me. Don’t go anywhere else.”

Instructor Jin Ki-hun and his family’s good will was revealed.
