THE PROTAGONIST

"ISAAK, FATHER, I made bbyeo haejang-guk aka pork spine soup for us," Zoe said cheerfully when her whole family was already seated around the dining table. "It cures hang-over, hence the name 'bone hangover soup.'"

Her father, as always, was seated in the center.

She sat on the chair on her father's right side while Isaak sat beside her.

Runa sat on her father's left side (facing Zoe) because the young princess insisted on sitting next to her Sua unnie (who was sitting across from Isaak).

The adults had hangover soup before them except for the child, naturally.

Zoe made kimchi fried rice with a fried egg on top of it. Of course, she made sure that the dish wasn't too spicy.

She also grilled bulgogi meat since she also cooked plain rice.

Kim Sua, on the other hand, prepared the side dishes: egg rolls, gimbap, pajeon (Korean savory pancakes), fish cake, and japchae.

[Yeah, we woke up early to cook breakfast.]
