It's my day. It's Sojin's day from today.
It's water day.
I invite you to the world of water.
You're all dead!
(The Thingyan Festival)
Expect a lot.
It's the day of water.
I really want to try those noodles.
Oh, my.
It's so cool.
It's so cool.
We'll start the water day of the Firefighting Tour.
Bboom bboom!
Now I'm attacking.
We haven't seen this before.

There's just something weird.
She looks somewhat awkward, yet she's having fun.

It's like walking like this.
That's right.
You should've done this.
(Kandawgyi Lake)
Today is my day. Sojin's day.
It's day of water.
We're going to start off at this lake.
This lake is called Kandawgyi Lake.
"Kan" means lake in the local language.
- Where is that? / - Kandawgyi.
Did such a place exist?
- It does look like a city here. / - Yes.
It's like a city, right?
(Kandawgyi Lake is a popular dating spot)
I think they went to that lake.

I don't have any recollection of it.
I don't have any recollection of it.
By the way, it's too hot.
- It's so hot. / - Isn't your day over yet?
It's fire here. There's a golden tower.
Oh, that. It's called Shwedagon Pagoda.
It's the landmark of the city.
- Really? / - Yes.
Everybody who visits Myanmar visits it.
- I think I saw a photo. / - It was on Battle Trip.
Right.
Why is it so different to when Suyong went there?
Is it really the same place Hwisun went?
Anyway, I was thinking of taking a train.
- We need to take a train? / - Yes.
Just like Line 2 on the Seoul metro,
there's a train that goes around Yangon.
- It's 16 cents. / - It's a circulating train.
It's so cheap.
The train ticket is 16 cents?
Yes.

There's food that I really wanted to eat
when I came to Myanmar.
You have to eat noodles in Southeast Asia.

Me too. Let's go.
(Kandawgyi Lake)
(Puzundaung Station)
(17-minute walk)
- Right. / - It's such an old train.
You learned how to read the letters, right?
No, I don't know the letters.
I just memorized the name of the place we're going.
Is it written in English as well or
is it only written in Burmese?
It's only written in Burmese.
Can they speak English though?
Yes, they can.
It doesn't matter where you're going.
1 ticket costs 200 kyats.
And you can go anywhere you want with the ticket.
So both you and I can travel for 40 cents.
It's so cheap.
Excuse me.
Two tickets please.
Pardon?
Not everyone speaks English.
Don't they speak English well?
Not as well as you think. Some are really good.
Most speak Burmese.
- Two tickets please. / - That's why you spoke in Korean?
Yes, so long as he understood.
60 cents.

No.
We can't miss this, right?
No, no.
Wait a minute.
- Oh, no! / - You were wasting time...
Without realizing.
Can we get on this?
Is this right?
Just carry this on?
After she made up her mind...
He told them to just get on.
It's like they're in Korea.
Don't they have to check our tickets?
Did they all give their tickets?
Maybe they don't check.
- Just in case... / - I'll hold on to it.
This train is so interesting.
There are no windows.
Goodness.
- It feels dangerous. / - You can get off.
There's no door either.
There's no door.
It'd be cool to stand out there.
You know where to get off, right?
- I know where, but... / - Don't make us worry.
Will they announce it? I can't read...
Let's see where we get off.
There was no announcement.
- So restless. / - You'd be so nervous.

We're going to Central?
Central?
Central? Central?
Central Station.
She won't even look at you.
She's so cute.
- Central Station? / - Yes.
(She looks at her desperately)
I watched a fun TV show she was on.
Through that show, I realized she was very smart.
I heard she could speak different languages.
I can rely on her for communication issues.
Recently, I visited Boston, where I used to live.
- You used to live in Boston? / - Yes.
That's interesting.
(How good is her English?)
(Slurping?)
(Do you know the noodles restaurant?)
(Ayoung)
Look at her.
What are you doing?
I wanted to say we were going to eat noodles.
(She patiently explains)
Shan noodles? Do you know Shan noodle?
(They have great teamwork)
Shan noodles? You don't know?
(She's indeed a master of communication)
What happens if we miss our stop?
If we miss it? Then we take another train going back.
We can ride the train as much as we want.

It think this is the station.
I was right.

She just guessed.
Is this restaurant famous?

If it's popular among the locals then it's really good.
Right.
Why is it called Shan noodles?
Shan people are the second biggest population here.

This is the noodles Shan people eat often.
Is this it?
Doesn't the menu look like that of a good restaurant?
This place must be a good restaurant.
It's so crowded although it's so hot today.
This place is more popular among the locals.
There's one with soup and one without.
It looks delicious already.

It's already good.
That was $1.60.
$1.60?

as chewy as hand-pulled noodles.
It's extremely chewy.
- It's a small serving. / - It's called sticky noodles.
It must be chewy and sticky.
It's made of sticky rice, so it's very filling.
If you take rice cake and really flatten it out,
I think it'd have this texture.

You need two bowls of this.
(Expectant)
Why do I taste bean paste from all the dishes here?
I think it tastes similar to bean paste noodles.
- Do you taste the bean paste? / - Yes.
- I'm not strange, right? / - I get the feeling now.
It tastes like bean paste noodles.
Like bean paste noodles.
Bean paste rice soup.

(Ayoung wonders what the sauces on the table are)
You know, we add sauces in rice soup in Korea.
- Can I add a little bit of it? / - Yes please.
- Can I? / - I love this sauce.
Let's mix it well. It might be spicier than we think.
It tastes similar to pork soup rice.
I love this.
This one looks more delicious.
There are different sauces you can add...
- To your liking. / - How is it?
(So happy)
It's sweet and spicy.
It's not what I expected.

Try it. It's tasty.
Excuse me.
(Making a fuss)
Please give me a small bowl.
- Let's eat. / - Thank you.
It's good.
- You added it, didn't you? / - No, I didn't.
- You did. / - I didn't.
The soup tastes different.
No way.
It must've gone in when the bag exploded.
Why can't you tell me precisely?
The pressure inside the bag was high.
Some went in when it exploded.
I think it'd taste better with it.
Please give me a small bowl.
Personal dish.
(So much)
- You look calm. / - You're so quick.
You're so quick when you're doing that.

Is this revenge for the temple?
The meat stock taste is gone.
(Screaming)
- No! / - It looks better.
- Are you sure? / - I'll try it.
(Ayoung tastes it first to put Sojin at ease)
Hey, wait a minute.
Is it like crispy batter?
It has a crunchy texture.
This one's good.
(Ayoung is nervous)
(She agrees this time)
Was that okay?
Yes, that was tasty.
You can think of it as frying powder
like the one you put in udon.
Sprinkling the crispy pork powder was a great choice.
It was like eating spicy pork rice soup on a hot day.
It was savory. I really liked it.
That looks delicious.
Their noodles are great.
- I should try both noodles. / - Of course.
- The mixed and soup. / - Definitely.
Myanmar has traditional tea called lahpet.
It's water day.
Why do you keep suggesting hot things?
On this hot day.

This one is 300.
This wasn't free.
So this one costs 300 kyats each.
I thought it was free because it was on the table.
You can mistake it for free.

Left hand, left hand.
