Baek Jong-won Faces Crisis with Makgeolli Bread on 'The Genius Paik 3'
On the October 3rd episode of tvN's variety show 'The Genius Paik 3', Baek Jong-won, Lee Jang-woo, Yoon Si-yoon, Yuri, and John Park embarked on their fourth day of business.
The sales for the third day at 'Hanpan House' were revealed, totaling 2,557 euros (approximately 4.15 million KRW), surpassing the combined earnings of the first and second days. The analysis showed that lunch brought in 688 euros, while dinner earned 1,869 euros, making dinner sales 2.7 times higher. Although they achieved 32% of their goal, they still needed to earn an additional 14.88 million KRW over five days.
Despite a malfunctioning order machine after opening, John Park showed his adaptability by taking orders manually. Yuri, noticing the hot sun, set up an awning for customers seated on the terrace, but soon received complaints. In France, where sunny days are rare, people prefer to enjoy the sun.
Sensing the discomfort despite the language barrier, Yuri quickly apologized and retracted the awning, marveling, "They sit here to enjoy the sun."
Baek Jong-won remarked, "I never thought I'd make makgeolli bread in France," showing both anticipation and confidence. However, the steamed bread turned out to be just dough, presenting a crisis.
Meanwhile, the preview for next week showed Baek Jong-won preparing for a comeback after the disappointing makgeolli bread sales. He chose 'Kimchi Stew' as the new menu item, but the staff's nervousness in the presence of a VIP led to mistakes, heightening expectations.
