Hey, wanna go get some samgyetang today?

Rashika

Are you out of your mind? It's boiling hot out there! All I want is an iced coffee and an air conditioner.

Koreans believe you should eat hot and spicy food on the hottest day of the year.

My take on the theory was that hot food would balance your insides with the outside world. So, you're probably right.

Rashika

Let's test out this theory. If we leave now, we might beat the rush.
