[Jessie] : So the day the broadcast starts is today?
[Jo Ara] : Oppa, can't you at least call us? Send us a picture.
[Lucas] : I believe you will also do well on the second phase.

Jo Minjoon smiled while looking at the accumulated messages on his cellphone. He was about to reply. Besides him was seated a young man. He had black skin and bulky arms and legs. It was Marco Denver who had come together from New York. Jo Minjoon looked at him and Marco smiled awkwardly. A husky voice with a slightly high tone was heard.

"We are both from New York, right? I just don't have anyone to talk to."
"I'm not exactly a native. But i'm a participant that came from New York."
"Well, anyways, don't we know each other by face already.......?"

Marco asked cautiously. The fat youth that was over 190cms tall to show such a timid attitude was quite a sight. Jo Minjoon nodded. It could be said that they already knew each other. Although the atmosphere became awkward because of Kaya's and Amanda's fight, Marco opened his mouth.

"What did they ask you during the interview?"
"I wonder. If I was confident on winning, who seems like a candidate to win. These things?"

There was no need to say that he was questioned whether he liked Kaya or not. Marco asked.

"Who do you think will win?"
"Kaya Lotus."

Jo Minjoon didn't hesitate a moment and replied. Marco nodded as if he agreed.

"If you saw her cooking in New York it is understandable to think like that."
"What do other people think about who will win?"
"Well. I don't know as I still haven't interacted with them. Honestly, I think it is too early to determine who the winner will be."

Jo Minjoon nodded, but he was opposed to that opinion. Putting aside that he came from the future, Jo Minjoon could see the cooking levels of the participants. And what Jo Minjoon grasped right now, was that from the participants who remained, only three had level 7 cooking skills. Kaya Lotus, Anderson Rousseau, and Chloe Jong.

Chloe was half white and half asian. Because of the influence from her chinese mother nationalized american, she could show amazing dishes that other participants couldn't compare to. However, on Jo Minjoon's memories, she was a participant that got disqualified quite early on. If that was not the case, his memories about Chloe couldn't be that foggy.

Aside from them, they were all level 6. Was it coincidence, or their skills got spotted. There were no people who were level 5 that had survived until now.

In the case of bakery it was different. They were mostly level 5 or 6. If not, they were lower than that. Excluding Anderson that was level 7, there was only another one that was at that level. And that was.....

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"

It was Marco. Jo Minjoon looked at this timid afroamerican. It was just a thought he had, but nothing wrong was going to happen just because he was friends with Marco. If he thought about Grand Chef's team missions, it was better to be close to those participants that had skill.

And aside from that, Jo Minjoon liked people who knew how to cook. Baking and cooking were different specializations, but it was similar in being delicious.

"I would like to try your bread once."
"......How did you know that I make bread?"
"I'm just saying. You look like you make some good ones."

Marco started to seriously think if he did look like someone who baked well. Jo Minjoon stood from the place. Marco was looking at Jo Minjoon with a dumbfounded expression. Jo Minjoon opened his mouth.
