Gimbap and Onigiri Episode 4 recap: Taiga meets his mother and elder brother

The Gimbap and Onigiri Episode 4 begins with Taiga and Rin waking up in Rin's apartment. The couple has their food when suddenly Taiga receives a call from his elder brother. The episode takes viewers to a flashback of Taiga's past when he used to be a runner. Because he was unable to secure the top positions, he was ultimately removed from the team.

Taiga doesn't lose hope and gives his all in practicing. However, he doesn't land in the top position again, and his coach tells him others are also working as hard as he is. Taiga, after hearing this, feels demotivated and moves to Tokyo.

In the present, after receiving the call, he goes to his hometown for his father's anniversary and, after seeing his mother cooking, helps her with the chopping.

Taiga's brother asks him about his workplace, and after coming to know that he is a part-time cook, he tells Taiga that the owner only relies on him because he doesn't have anyone else to do the cooking.

This makes Taiga feel sad, and he expresses his feelings to Rin. However, Rin tells him that his brother is wrong, and the restaurant owner is glad to have him. This gives Taiga confidence to face his brother as he tells him that he is training and one day he will do something only he can do, adding that he wants to enjoy his work.

Taiga's brother, who is clearly not happy after hearing this, asks him what if he fails again. Taiga, not having any proper answer to this question, leaves his brother disappointed.

Taiga returns to the restaurant and tells his owner about what he talked about with his mother and brother. At this point, Taiga's restaurant owner only wants to help him and also sees potential in him. To cheer him up, he takes Taiga to a wholesale market to buy vegetables and meat.

While keeping the vegetables in the vehicle, the owner tells him that he also left his school without getting a degree, after which he started cooking, adding that both people and things change. This was his way of making Taiga feel better after Taiga's brother told him he hadn't changed.

On the other hand, Jun-ho comes to pick up Rin's mother. Rin's mother is clearly impressed with Jun-ho and asks them if they're dating. Jun-ho already likes Rin, and while he says they're not dating, he also answers all the questions asked by Rin's mother.

Rin's mother tells her that it's better to settle down, adding that wanting to become an animator doesn't mean she will actually become one. In this scene, viewers see Rin's mother and Taiga's brother imposing their own opinions on Rin and Taiga.
