CEO Baek ordered pork bone soup with the production team and was amazed by the mountain-like pile of bones and the amount of cabbage greens that soon appeared.

The production team said, "It looks difficult to pile up like this, and the price is this low?" Baek also checked the price tag and said, "Is this really 7,000 won? This is impossible in Seoul."

Then CEO Baek asked the restaurant owner directly, "It seems like you are the building owner?" The owner replied, "Yes," acknowledging that he owns the building.

When the playful remark turned out to be true, CEO Baek told the production team, "You can eat without any burden," but also said, "It's not easy to be this generous."

CEO Baek asked, "I wonder if you were originally the building owner and started the soup restaurant with a certain purpose, or if you became a building owner after running the soup restaurant."

The owner answered, "I ran the soup restaurant and then took out a loan to buy the building."

As the meal was finishing, the production team asked CEO Baek what kind of heart the restaurant owner has to pile up so much food like this. Baek empathized with the owner's heart, saying, "The person serving the food must feel comfortable. If it's been 40 years, back then pork bones were cheap. He still has the same heart as back then."
