The mont Evelyn’s hat flew off, exactly three seconds passed.
A custor, who had just received their food, stood stunned.
THUMP!
Like a scene straight out of a kung fu movie—
The handso chef suddenly leaped out of the food truck.
Not through the proper door,
but from the kitchen side, the part ant for handing out food.
Without a mont’s hesitation,
the chef swung his fist and smashed the tal signboard beside him.
WHOOSH!
Like striking a gong,
his fist ca down on the signboard as if it were a drumstick.
BANG!
A sound like an explosion roared through the air.
A shockwave so loud that ears rang.
‘Did a human really just do that... with his bare fist?!’
The custors standing closest gasped in horror.
Even those far away couldn’t ignore the sound.
Silence.
Every single person turned their gaze toward the source of the deafening noise.
The excitent of seeing a celebrity was gone.
Now—
They felt sothing else.
An instinctive reaction.
It wasn’t just that a famous person was standing before them.
There was sothing... dangerous.
Even people deep in the crowd,
who couldn’t see what was happening,
felt it.
‘Sothing’s there.’
And after only a few seconds—
As if it were preordained,
the crowd parted.
And in the middle of that newly ford path,
Tarzan appeared.
"Everyone, calm down.
Lower your hands."
I don’t want to hurt anyone.
DRIP.
DRIP.
Blood trickled from his knuckles.
He didn’t even wipe it away.
Dressed as a chef,
but standing like a king,
Kim Donghu scanned his surroundings.
But what was it?
That gaze...
That gaze alone was enough to make people lower their heads in fear.
This was a primal terror,
sothing that no modern man should be able to experience.
A fear that one person standing right in front of them
could end their lives at any mont—
and that no law could protect them.
Just simple, raw fear.
The warped tal signboard at his feet—
If that had been soone’s skull,
they wouldn’t have survived.
Donghu’s gaze continued to sweep the crowd,
until it stopped at one particular spot.
"You.
Give back the hat."
"H-Huh?!"
"Was that unclear?"
"T-The hat! Yes! Here! Take it!"
He didn’t even need to raise his voice.
Yet, without another word,
the thief imdiately handed the hat over.
The idea of running?
Didn’t even cross his mind.
He knew.
Trying to run was pointless.
‘I can’t escape... This is really him—Kim Donghu... The one who caught the paparazzi...’
Just pure, overwhelming force.
That alone was enough for one man to control an entire crowd.
STEP.
STEP.
STEP.
Holding the hat in his uninjured hand,
Kim Donghu walked forward.
This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.
Not a single person dared to reach for Evelyn.
They couldn’t.
Not when he was standing there.
With an easygoing smile,
he placed the hat back onto Evelyn’s head.
"Jane!"
"No matter how much you wanted my food,
you should’ve brought your bodyguards."
SWOOSH.
That gentle reprimand—
"S-Sorry... I-I’m so sorry... Hic... Hngh...!"
Evelyn burst into tears.
And collapsed into Tarzan’s arms.
And all of it—
was caught on cara.

The video of Kim Donghu saving Evelyn?
It spread across the internet like wildfire.
It only took five minutes
for it to reach the entire world.
And in Korea?
The online communities exploded.

The End Result?
“We can’t continue filming ‘Will It Work in the Holand?’ anymore.”
After the incident, the show had to be shut down.
Not because of injuries or issues—
“I’ve never seen anything like this on a show before.”
“Seriously. He got too famous, and now it doesn’t fit the concept.”
Just as the cody duo pointed out—
Kim Donghu beca TOO popular.
Will It Work in the Holand? was supposed to test whether foreign cuisine
could succeed in another country’s local market.
But the problem?
“The chef beca more famous than the food.”
The food truck wasn’t about the nu anymore.
People didn’t even KNOW what they were ordering.
“They weren’t even asking for explanations—
They just saw Donghu and ordered ALL THREE options.”
Once the video of him saving Evelyn spread,
the food truck itself beca a moving attraction.
Wherever they went—
“People just wanted to SEE him.”
The feedback wasn’t even about the food anymore.
“They’d order, take a bite, look at Donghu... take another bite... and just stare at him.”
“They weren’t reviewing the food—just the experience of seeing him.”
At this point, the concept of the show had completely collapsed.
BUT—
That didn’t an it was a failure.
CAE and Disney officially invited the production team.
Not just as guests—
but with a perfect justification to continue filming.
“Wouldn’t it be interesting to see if this concept works for actors too?”
“Co tour Disney, help promote Tarzan, and advertise your show—
It’s a win-win.”
Filming on the streets was no longer an option.
But doing it inside corporate HQ under official invitation?
Not bad at all.
Of course, it still wasn’t true to the original concept.
But at this point...
That didn’t matter.
“Our show is EVERYWHERE.”
“From news outlets to social dia, we’re trending NONSTOP.”
“It’s a MASSIVE hit.”
They had already milked the original concept for all it was worth.
Short and intense.
Even with just one week of selling food,
they had enough footage for EIGHT episodes.
And the remaining four episodes?
They’d film those at CAE and Disney HQ.
So there was no reason to worry.
If anything,
the Evelyn rescue made the show EVEN BIGGER.
“No need to drag out minor side stories anymore.”
Smaller episodes would naturally pop up while filming.
But forcing them was a hassle.
Now?
They had MAJOR monts to work with.
Bigger.
Stronger.
Bolder.
Of course, Lee Hyungwoo PD was grinning like a madman.
“Wow, do Aricans always customize this much?!”
“There are over 20 different requests just for removing ingredients from kimbap!”
As the staff rushed to take orders—
“Donghu, let do the wok frying. Your right hand is injured.”
“What? This is nothing. You worry too much, Sujin.”
“No, seriously. I practiced, and I’m actually decent now.”
“Nah, I got it. If you’re really worried, just buy coffee after work.”
“...I’ll buy you TEN coffees.”
They cooked like a long-ti married couple.
It was the kind of chemistry that made an editor’s hands itch to edit it imdiately.
And at that exact mont—
[We need to et later.]
[I have a lot to apologize for... and I want to thank you properly.]
A ssage arrived on Kim Donghu’s phone.
From Evelyn.
And nobody else knew.
