Brewing Love, starring Kim Se-jeong and Lee Jung-won, unveiled episodes 3 and 4 on November 10 and 11, respectively, on ENA. Brewing Love episode 3 picked up from the previous episode, where Chae Yong-ju (Kim Se-jeong) decided to help out Yun Min-ju's (Lee Jung-won) employees to get on his good side.

Yun Min-ju told her it wouldn't work, but she insisted on helping. Chae Yong-ju noticed that he was compassionate and caring toward his employees.

Meanwhile, Yun Min-ju noticed that Chae Yong-ju was craving iced coffee and something sweet to eat. Later, he gave her what she was looking for but asked her to leave immediately. In response, Chae Yong-ju went to his beer cafe and drank around 10 liters of beer to gain his attention.

The village chief was concerned that she was drunk and Yun Min-ju. Chae Yong-ju fell asleep in a straight posture without losing her guard, prompting Min Yong-ju to decide to take her to the site of the upcoming Beer Festival.

In the recent developments of Brewing Love, Chae Yong-ju successfully secured Yun Min-ju as the brewmaster to create a new type of beer for Likey. He signed the contract due to her true intentions towards her work.


Brewing Love ep 3-4 recap: Yun Min-ju sees a reflection of his younger self in Chae Yong-ju

In Brewing Love episode 3, Go Suk-ja (Baek Hyun-joo) and Shim Young-ja (Park Ji-a) instructed Chae Yong-ju to go to the hillside and get something, sending Yun Min-ju behind her. Yun Min-ju looked for Chae Yong-ju and found her sitting near a hut.

During their conversation, Chae Yong-ju asked why Yun Min-ju disliked her, even though he hadn't seen her face. He stated that he saw his old self in her and spoke about his sensitive personality, which was not liked by his father, a soldier who wanted him to be strong and manly.

Chae Yong-ju shook hands with him, realizing how difficult it must be for him to open up about his personal life. Yun Min-ju shared that someone had saved his life and advised him to block out anything that was harmful and prioritize himself, as that would be the way to respect himself.

While Chae Yong-ju understood him, she stated that only people with leisure can easily block people and the harmful things around them. She then changed the topic, saying she was sleeping. By the end of Brewing Love episode 3, Bang A-reum (Shin Do-hyun) met with the villagers to lure them in for a merger with Likey, saying that Chae Yong-ju was only there to take Yun Min-ju away to Seoul.

This situation would only lead the village people into a difficult situation. As Yun Min-ju and Chae Yong-ju returned, the village head threw salt at the latter to express his anger. He shielded her to stop the villagers from getting more angry.

In Brewing Love episode 4, Yun Min-ju once again asked Chae Yong-ju and Bang A-reum to leave. Later, Yun Min-ju explained to Chae Yong-ju that the villagers were a significant part of his life. They had supported him in building the In My Name beer for the past four years, so it was his duty to protect them.

It was the D-Day of the Beer Festival, but a crisis arose when the village head ordered wholesale beer on the wrong date, resulting in a shortage of beer. Bang A-rum and Oh Chan-hwi (Baek Sung-chul) aided Yun Min-ju in brewing the remaining stock of beer. Meanwhile, Chae Yong-ju contacted Kang Beom (Ryu Won-woo) to get approval for sponsored beer from the marketing team head. Despite facing some hurdles on the way, Chae Yong-ju and Kang Beom successfully get enough stock for the festival.

On the other hand, Bang A-reum tried her best to dissuade Yun Min-ju from making a deal with Chae Yong-ju outside his factory. Oh Chan-hwi explained that Chae Yong-ju was in a difficult situation as she had to save the Busan Branch in return for the deal with Yun Min-ju. Hearing this, Bang A-reum stated that he should reconsider whether Chae Yong-ju was trustworthy.

Later in Brewing Love episode 4, Chae Yong-ju arrived at the factory and heard their conversation just as Oh Chan-hwi and Bang A-reum left. She told Yun Min-ju that everything Oh Chan-hwi said was true, but her intention was never to harm anyone. She added that while working with people in the village, her curiosity to make new beer with him increased. She asked him to see her for who she was.

Due to Yun Min-ju's efforts in bringing the beer stock when they needed it most, he told her he would sign a contract with her. The next day, he went to Seoul with Oh Chan-hwi and signed the contract. Chae Yong-ju picked Kang Beom, Bang A-reum, and Shim Ra-oh (Ha Min-hook) as her team for this project.

By the end of Brewing Love episode 4, they went for a factory visit and had their first team dinner together. After dinner, Yun Min-ju noticed that Kang Beom liked Chae Yong-ju with psychic abilities, while his heart raced at her presence. Yun Min-ju was left confused about whether his heart rate increased because of his perception of Kang Beom’s feelings towards Chae Yong-ju or from his own emotions toward her.
