"Is the spicy pork all ready?"
"Okay! Just leave it to me."
"And the pajeon station's good too?"
"Heh heh. I'm the cook at my house. Trust me."
"All right, I'm counting on you for the next few days. The professors are coming, so nobody screw up."
"Yes, yes~, Class Rep!"
A Yu-ra went down the checklist in her notebook, item by item.
The freshmen running the kitchen at Hanguk University's business administration pub were fired up.
She'd called up every classmate with a knack for cooking.
As class rep, A Yu-ra had brought in top-grade ingredients.
With clean, fresh ingredients and simple, clear recipes, they'd all practiced several times.
The food tasted incredible.
Every one of them was burning with fighting spirit.
The professors had put in a special order: dishes that would flatten the law school's pub.
The seniors and A Yu-ra had put their heads together.
It might sound trivial, but in business administration, the professors' clout was no joke.
A Yu-ra and the freshmen had the kitchen, the heart of the pub.
The seniors handled the moneymakers—drinks, serving and the register.
A strict division of labor was up and running.
A Yu-ra was only a freshman, but her word carried surprising weight.
Much of the money, ingredients included, had come through her.
Of all the freshmen this year, her family was the richest.
This time I'm going to get the professors to recognize me for sure!
A Yu-ra had been trampled by the law school twice.
She'd bet everything on the festival to get even.
Even during midterms, she'd found time to plan her strategy.
She'd put the crowd-pleasers, the dishes festivalgoers ordered most, front and center.
Every year, the business department raked in the top sales of any Hanguk University festival pub.
At Hanguk University, where everyone was smart and looked out for number one, the business school had the most team spirit.
The engineering school and a lot of the other departments ran their pubs so they could eat and party among themselves.
The business department, by contrast, ran its pub like a business.
