When Rain says, “I think there is nothing better than red Duckbokki” the Minister of Agriculture says, “I think Duckbokki with sweet pumpkin in cream sauce is all right as well. I’ll feed this to Rain. He said he likes the red one, but once he has a few, he might change his mind (in a flash).”
Rain tastes it, then says, “This yellow one is as good as the red one.”
How perfect to make Rain “Food Ambassador” since ev everyone knows how much he likes to eat! 🙂
