It made me want to cry when other families came to the restaurant to eat delicious BBQ.”

He introduced Kimchi Zidane, which was made by mixing and frying kimchi and egg on an oil greased cooking pan. He said, “When I ate instant food as a meal, I missed home cooking.  With the limited amount of money I had, I was able to make this food.”
