Jinny's Kitchen 2: What confusion does Choi Woo-shik have?

In episode 5 of Jinny's Kitchen 2, Seo-jun and Min-si are busy in the kitchen and the orders are going out on time. Woo-chik notices that the orders have been served wrong. Yu-mi also catches up to the confusion happening at tables two and three. Seo-jin clears the confusion and tells Woo-shik that he accidentally served the wrong order to table 2, hence the confusion.

The cast gets back to working right again after Seo-jin corrects the mistake by serving the right order on table 2. The customers were just happy to try more dishes before the right order was served. More customers flow in and Seo-jin clears the bills for the previous ones. Woo-shik and Seo-jun get busy with cleaning dishes.

After their afternoon shift, Seo-jin goes to pick lunch for the group while the rest of them set the tables. Woo-shik, Yu-mi and Min-si start eating while Seo-jin reaches with wraps for everyone. The team gets back to preparation for the dinner shift again and Seo-jun goes grocery shopping. Seo-jun makes a bowl of Dak Galbi for the group to try as well. They love it.

Customers form a long waiting queue even before the restaurant opens for dinner. The crowd of people causes the police to come and check the situation. Seo-jin decides to go out and count the number of people and cut the queue where their capacity to serve 2 rounds finishes. Woo-shik goes to assist him in the task. After making a list of everyone they can accommodate, he has to ask the rest of the people to leave, but not before apologising to them for it.

They finally opened the restaurant for the evening shift. The customers take a look at the posters of ingredients on the wall. Min-si and Seo-jun are working hard in the kitchen. A family present in Bacalar during Jinny's Kitchen season 1 is surprised that they came to Iceland as well. The mother, who is fluent in Korean, is busy teaching her kid the language. The kid loves corndogs but is unable to find them on the menu and the mother promises to get him corndogs when they are in Korea next.

The customers enjoy the food. They appreciate the perfect balance of flavours in the food. The big table made a huge order, which took some time to prepare, and finally, they received all of it. They dig in and love the food.

The team gets ready for the second round, but the group at the big table has not finished yet. The team quickly clears their table and welcomes the next set of customers. Seo-jin and Woo-shik start serving drinks to the customers.

One set of customers recognises a few statues from an episode of Jinny's Kitchen season one. They had come all the way from London after knowing that Jinny's Kitchen was coming to Iceland next.

After finishing all the orders, Seo-jun and Min-si finally get to catch their breath. The customers outside seem to be enjoying their food. Knowing there is an aurora right outside the restaurant, Seo-jun and Min-si rush to see the view and take pictures.

They also inform Woo-shik and Seo-jin, who inform the customers as well. The whole cast except Seo-jin goes outside to take pictures and enjoy the rare sight. With this, the day comes to an end.
