Chapter 304 Contents 2: Why did you come back?
"Hey, PD Jin, can this cilantro be eaten directly?"
"Yes, you can eat it directly."
"Hmm~~, what's that smell?"
After hearing Huang Xu say that they could eat it directly, Park Ji-yeon and Ham Eun-jung and Park So-yeon beside her also came over.
But after smelling the odor, they all retreated a little.
"This is really spice, it's spice!"
"Yes, the spices."
“It smells very strong.”
As the three people were discussing, Jeon Baolan, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, also became interested. She leaned over and smelled it. She also wanted to see what it smelled like.
But after smelling the scent, she said directly.
“This taste is good for your body.”
In Korea, the taste that is good for the body basically means that the food tastes bad or is unpalatable.
At the same time, Lee Joo-ri on the other side asked Huang Xu a crucial question.
"Should I take a bite of this, or eat the whole thing?"
"Ah~~, when it's your turn, can you eat it all?"
After hearing her words, before Huang Xu answered, Park So Yeon immediately asked Lee Joo Ri.
Park Ji-yeon, the person involved, was also glaring at Lee Joo-ri at this time, obviously because she was a little unhappy with what had just said.
After all, she is the person involved now, right?
She didn't have the confidence to eat the whole plate of coriander in one go.
But it wasn't yet, before she could say anything, Huang Xu spoke to everyone.
"Don't worry, just take a bite and taste it."
"Inside."
Park Ji-yeon was relieved when she heard Huang Xu say that, but when she saw the coriander in her hand, an expression of fear still appeared on her face.
“But I still can’t really eat this.”
“The smell is a bit too strong.”
Although she was resisting vigorously, Ham Eun-jung next to her couldn't wait to hand her a pair of chopsticks, signaling her to taste it quickly.
Park So-yeon next to her also comforted her.
"Try it, Jiyeon, it smells delicious."
"Try it. Taste it."
Lee Joo-ri also kept tempting Park Ji-yeon to try it quickly to see how it tasted.
After all, as long as she doesn't try it herself, it's still something worth being happy about.
Seeing this situation, Park Ji-yeon could only carefully pick up a small piece of coriander.
But as the chopsticks exerted force, several cilantro were lifted up, which made Park Ji-yeon a little panicked.
"Is this whole thing one?"
Looking at the coriander being carried up, Park Ji-yeon's eyes revealed confusion, or surprise.
The Tara members who were watching from the side, saw that Park Ji-yeon, who was usually the leader of the group, would actually fall into such a situation, and they all showed expressions of watching a show.
Fortunately, not everyone is watching the show.
Ham Eun-jeong, who was standing next to her, looked at the somewhat flustered Park Ji-yeon and quickly extended a helping hand.
"Just picking a small piece should be enough."
"Pick a small piece."
Park So-yeon also offered her help directly, and then gave Ham Eun-jung a thumbs-up for her help.
"Yes, that's it."
But as the coriander was torn apart, the unique rich smell of coriander suddenly spread out at this time.
This made Ham Eun-jung, who had just helped, and Park Ji-yeon, who was holding the plate, both smell the unique scent of coriander.
“Wow, it’s hard even like this!”
“This smell is really strong.”
Their reactions immediately aroused the curiosity of the people around them, and they all looked at the plate of green coriander.
"Really?"
"It's true. The smell is really strong."
"Let me smell it."
When Park So-yeon saw this, she reached out and took the small piece that Park Ji-yeon had just picked to her nose and smelled it gently.
What puzzled her was that she didn't smell any bad smell this time, or rather, she didn't hate the smell.
But her expressionless and indifferent look made Park Ji-yeon a little suspicious.
"Unnie, do you think the smell of cilantro is not that strong?"
“It tastes okay, but I’m sorry, Jiyeon.”
"I just put that up my nostril."
Following Park So-yeon's words, the scene suddenly exploded.
Because the coriander that Park So-yeon had just smelled was about to be put into her mouth.
Ham Eun-jung even shouted louder.
“Jiyeon is going to eat soon.”
After a few people made a fuss for a while, the scene finally quieted down.
Park Ji-yeon also tore off a small piece of coriander with her hands and showed it to the camera.
"I'll savor it."
Looking at Park Ji-yeon who was about to taste the coriander, everyone in Tara started discussing.
"You can say delicious, right, Jiyeon?"
"Young people can even eat stones."
"Pork belly. I think this cilantro would taste good with pork belly."
“I feel like this shouldn’t be eaten raw, right?”
“Is it in the dish?”
"We've been eating salad lately, so aren't we also eating a lot of grass?"
As everyone was discussing, Park Ji-yeon also put a small piece of coriander into her mouth, and then showed an expression of despair.
"It's this, it's this, this is coriander, this is coriander!"
Then he rubbed his head hard, obviously stimulated by the smell of coriander.
But it’s not surprising that she reacted like this. As for coriander, people who can accept it will like it very much.
If you hate it, then you simply cannot accept the taste of it at all.
And this is imprinted in the genes and cannot be changed by the brain.
Obviously, Park Ji-yeon is the one who can't accept it.
And Tara's people, seeing how much pain she was in, began to show concern.
"Jiyeon, what's wrong with you?"
“Is it spicy?”
"Or you can't bite it?"
"."
However, in the face of everyone's concern, Park Ji-yeon finally only said one sentence.
"This is coriander. This is coriander."
"what?"
Looking at Park Ji-yeon's reaction, everyone in Tara was a little puzzled and started to guess what the coriander tasted like.
However, there are others who are more curious about the taste of coriander.
Jeon Bo-ram is the most curious one among them.
While everyone was concerned about Park Ji-yeon, she reached out to the plate of green coriander.
This made Park So-yeon, who saw this situation, quickly give a compliment.
"Wow, Sister Baolan is going to try cilantro."
"It's Baolan unnie as expected, so handsome."
Following Jeon Bo-ram's actions, Lee Joo-ri next to her was also moved. After Jeon Bo-ram put down the plate, she also picked it up.
This made Park So-yeon exclaim again.
"Challenge? Sister Ju Li wants to challenge too?"
Following Park So-yeon's words, everyone in Tara focused their attention on the two of them.
I want to see what it tastes like. Park Ji-yeon just had such a big reaction, so what kind of comments or reactions will the two people who want to try it next have?
After eating the coriander, Jeon Bo-ram did not have a strong reaction. Instead, an expression of sudden realization appeared on her face, and then she looked at Park Ji-yeon.
"Ah~~ Jiyeon, I know what you meant just now."
"Yeah, yeah, this is coriander."
After Park Ji-yeon finished speaking, she picked up a small piece with her hand and put it into her mouth.
This time, the reaction to coriander was even more intense, and her body even trembled a little. Then she rubbed her head hard.
"Here it comes, the coriander feeling is coming."
Then he felt it was not enough, so he stood up and shook it vigorously twice.
This made Ham Eun-jeong, who was beside her, feel embarrassed. She pointed in the direction of the door and said to Park Ji-yeon.
"Jiyeon, please go outside and come back in later."
Compared to Ham Eun-jung's embarrassment, Park So-yeon was very curious about the taste of coriander at this time.
Why did Park Ji-yeon react like this?
Then he looked at her and Jeon Bo-ram beside her and asked.
"Ouni, is this cilantro spicy?"
"It's not spicy, it just tastes weird."
“I really don’t know how to describe this taste.”
“Is it a strange smell?”
Seeing Jeon Bo-ram's sad face and her inability to find an adjective to describe it, Park So-yeon became extremely alert to the taste of coriander.
And it wasn't just her. Everyone in Tara started to become interested in coriander because of Park Ji-yeon's reaction.
Even Park Hyomin, who was sitting next to them and hadn't said anything for several minutes, became interested.
He took the plate from Lee Joo-ri and leaned forward to smell it.
At this time, Park Ji-yeon finally failed to see the power of coriander, lowered her head, and secretly spit out the coriander.
But at this time, everyone in Tara no longer cared about that matter.
They are now starting to speculate what this coriander tastes like.
Park So-yeon especially pulled Park Ji-yeon aside and kept asking questions.
“What is this smell?”
"Spicy? Bitter? Or what flavor?"
“This is the taste of coriander!”
Park Ji-yeon looked at her captain unnie helplessly, then picked up a piece of coriander and handed it over.
"Ouni, since you are so curious, why don't you try it yourself?"
"Ugh~~, I don't want it."
Looking at the coriander handed to her, Park So-yeon rejected it with all her heart.
She saw Park Ji-yeon's reaction just now very clearly, so why would she try it now?
However, Park Ji-yeon, who has already become interested, doesn't care whether Park So-yeon is an unnie or whether she is the captain.
As the leader of the group, she wanted to force Park So-yeon to taste the coriander.
But even though she was the leader of the group, she was ultimately powerless. After some effort, she ultimately failed.
Just when she was feeling a little discouraged, Huang Xu, who had been watching the show, said something slowly.
"Coriander is a very common ingredient in China and is found in many dishes."
"what???"
"what???"
Although the sounds made by the two people are the same, the moods they represent are completely different.
Park So-yeon looked at coriander with some fear, and her heart became very conflicted.
Park Ji-yeon was smiling happily and kept pointing coriander in front of Park So-yeon.
"Ouni, do you want to try again?"
"You can't escape anyway, so why not try it now?"
"No, I don't want it."
It’s a pity that no matter how Park Ji-yeon forced her, Park So-yeon refused to give in and just fought against Coriander with all her heart and soul.
And he even said this to the happy Park Ji-yeon.
"And Jiyeon, PD Kim has already said that coriander is very common in China. How are you going to get by from now on?"
"Ah~~~"
At this moment, Park Ji-yeon remembered her reaction to coriander just now, and her face, which was full of smiles just now, suddenly fell.
She could already imagine the miserable life she would have after arriving in China, and she then complained to Park So-yeon.
"Ah, unnie, you are going too far."
"How could you do this?"
Park Ji-yeon looked at Park So-yeon helplessly, her tone filled with resentment towards Park So-yeon.
Unfortunately, her complaints did not produce any results.
As the captain, Park So-yeon ignored Park Ji-yeon and used her status to force the process to move to the next step.
"Okay, Jiyeon has finished the food tasting, so it's Hyomin's turn to draw the lot next."
"."
Huang Xu sat in front of them, watching them playing and fighting, but did not try to stop them. Instead, he was looking forward to seeing such behavior.
And watching the interaction between Park So Yeon and Park Ji Yeon now, a lot of thoughts came to my mind.
I began to imagine some of their personalities and their subsequent interactions.
Park So-yeon looks chubby, young and cute, but she is the most domineering captain.
Park Ji-yeon, who looks cool and has strong offensive power, is actually the clever youngest member who is bullied by the captain and wants to turn against the team.
If these two characters can be made prominent, I believe they will contribute a lot of highlights in the upcoming shows.
Moreover, Huang Xu, as well as other members of Tara, also had some opinions or directions at this time.
For example, despite Ham Eun-jung’s handsome appearance, she has the personality of a warm-hearted older sister.
Behind Lee Joo-ri's beautiful face lies the attributes of a virtuous wife.
Despite Jeon Bo-ram's cute little loli face, she is actually very mature and independent.
Of course, these are just some of Huang Xu’s ideas. To implement them specifically, we need to wait and see some subsequent developments.
So he just wrote down what he had just seen and some of his thoughts on the development trends of several people.
But when he got to the end, he looked at Park Hyomin who had finished drawing lots and was tasting beef tendon, and he felt a headache.
Compared with other members of Tara, Park Hyomin seemed to be wandering outside the show today, although she also interacted and followed the process.
But I always feel that she is a little absent-minded.
This made Huang Xu feel a little strange.
The Park Hyomin I knew before was someone who was very interested in various variety shows and would do her best for the camera.
Why are you behaving so abnormally today?
However, although Huang Xu was strange, he did not scold Park Hyomin immediately, but after finishing today's pilot film recording.
First, he arranged for his assistant, Park Soo-geun, an assistant director who was poached from the TV station by Kim Tae-woo, to check the results of today's recording.
And after confirming some details for tomorrow's departure, he called Park Hyomin to a corner.
Looking at Park Hyomin who kept her head down and didn't say anything, and even didn't dare to look up at him, Huang Xu looked at her with concern.
"Xiaominxi, what happened to you today? It seems like you're not in good shape all the time."
"I'm sorry PD Kim, I will adjust my condition as soon as possible."
"you"
Huang Xu looked at Park Hyomin who bowed and apologized directly but did not explain the reason. He could only shake his head helplessly and then said something to her.
"Okay, I hope you'll be in good shape by the time you leave tomorrow."
"By the way, if you have anything to say, you can talk to me alone, or you can talk to Sunny."
After saying that, Huang Xu turned around and left the company, driving towards the apartment.
On the way, he also stopped by a supermarket and did some shopping.
But when he returned to the apartment and saw the car parked next to him, a smile appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect Sunny to come back today."
This made Huang Xu overjoyed. He took the supplies he had just purchased and returned to the door of the apartment as quickly as possible.
But when she opened the door and saw two figures sitting in the living room, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
"Why did you come here too?"
