Wakako Zake - Season 4 Episode 9 Korean food in Shin-Okubo
During her lunch break, Wakako (Takeda Rina) is influenced by Abe-chan (Watanabe Mizuki) as she looks through a Korean guidebook, and with her head full of thoughts of Korean food, she comes to Shin-Okubo, where she can get a taste of Korea without being in Japan. She goes straight into a restaurant and orders chanja and barley shochu with water. The spiciness of the chanja makes the water seem a little weak, so Wakako also orders some barley shochu on the rocks. She sips the rocks and the chanja, and uses the water as a chaser for the alcohol and kimchi. The more she tastes it, the deeper it gets. She enjoys her chanja addiction to the fullest. The next day, Abe-chan, having heard Wakako's story, tells her a recommended restaurant for pot-pickled kalbi. Wakako goes right there and orders the pot-pickled kalbi and draft beer. She enjoys eating yakiniku by herself.
