Awful Ttoekbokki Van
Sally cradled Yenna in her arms. "Yenna... She's grown so much. She's starting to look more and more like Heather..."
Yenna tried to leap from Sally's arms to Warren, but he stepped back. His body was drenched in sweat from his workout, so he couldn't hold her.
At the mention of Heather's name, pain flickered across Eli's face. Vin Jin placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry. At least she's alive. One day, she's going to wake up. Just make sure you're worthy of her when that time comes."
Eli nodded. "Yeah. I hope so too... By the way, what did you want to talk about?"
Sally's expression grew serious. "There's a problem. Olly Wang has started another Hostel. He's making money through crime, using kids to do it. We have to stop him. Eli, you're the only one who can stop him. He always listened to you."

A few days later
Warren Chae, Vin Jin, and Eli Jang arrived in East Gangdong. Bodies were scattered all around them. Warren glanced at Vin Jin. "You said your friends were coming. Did they make it?"
Vin Jin scratched his head. "They told me they were in Gangdong, but I can't reach them right now."
Warren frowned. "They might be in danger."
Vin Jin smiled. "Those guys? Nah. They're monsters. There's no way they're losing to some random punks. The only way to beat them would be to make them fight each other. Hahaha! But we're all friends. There's no reason for infighting."
Warren nodded. He glanced at Eli, who had already decimated another group while he and Vin Jin were talking. "Just how much has he grown?!"

Meanwhile, Vin Jin's words proved prophetic. The J High group had all been captured—not because Olly Wang's Hostel had defeated them, but because they'd fought among themselves.
Jerry Kwon of Big Deal dragged the battered Zack Lee and Daniel Park forward. They saw the captured Jay Hong and Logan Lee. Daniel shouted, "Jay?! Logan?! You guys got caught too?!"
Zack said, "Not Logan though. That bastard looks completely fine."
Zack's expression said, "I knew it. Logan came to save us!"
But Logan's expression told a different story: "Nah, I'm trapped too."
Jin Jang looked them over, his face darkening. He asked one of his members, "What about Vasco of Burn Knuckles and Vin Jin, the master of Cheonliang?"
The member stuttered, "W-We couldn't f-find th—" Before he could finish, Jin Jang slapped him across the face. "Why didn't you tell me that earlier, you motherfucker?!"
Suddenly, Jerry Kwon walked in. "Is there a problem with your plan?"
Jin Jang smiled. "No, no. How could there be a problem when we have Jake's sword on board?"
Jerry Kwon lifted Jin Jang by his throat. "Jake? Watch your tongue. It's BOSS to you."
Jin Jang gasped for air. "Gasp... gasp! U-Understood!"
Meanwhile, the members of Olly Wang's Hostel were getting excited.
"Uncle, can we have a little fun first... while we wait for Big Daddy?"
Chuck Kwak, the second Uncle of Hostel, took a drag of his cigarette. "Suit yourselves. Y'all probably want to make a good impression when Big Daddy arrives."
The Hostel members rushed at Logan Lee, Daniel, and Zack Lee. Jay was already unconscious.
"You heard Uncle! Let's amputate their legs!!!"
But before they could get any closer, they were all sent flying back. Jay Hong suddenly woke up. Though Jay didn't say anything, Daniel somehow understood him.
"J-Jay?! Are you okay? What?! This was all Logan Lee's plan? You pretended to be unconscious so you and Logan could infiltrate Hostel?!"
Logan Lee thrashed the Hostel members left and right. He shouted at Jin Jang. "If your plan was to make us fight each other, you should have had a backup in case we got along! Thanks to you punks, we started getting all cozy and warm."
Jin Jang laughed. "You guys? What can you even do now when you don't have the stamina to walk straight? Four against dozens? I know where to place my bet."
Suddenly Vasco jumped out from somewhere. "You didn't count me! I, Vasco, will punish all the bad guys!!!"
Zack Lee clasped Vasco's shoulder. "Vasco, I don't know where you came from, but having one extra fighter doesn't tilt the odds in our favor."
Vasco shouted, "Don't worry, guys! Backup is coming!!!"
Suddenly, several men were sent flying back. Warren muttered as he thrashed through enemies, "1,083 matches... 1,075 wins and 9 defeats. I guess I can reach my 1,200 wins today."
Jerry Kwon rushed at Warren. Their collision sent dust and debris flying. Both had blocked each other's punches. Warren asked, "Has it been three years? Seems like you're guarding now... Jerry Kwon."
Jerry answered, "Same goes for you... Warren Chae."
The Hostel members murmured, "W-Woah! He has an 'H'..."
"Is he the legendary Big Daddy...?"
Chuck Kwak said, "Behave, kids. He's just an imposter."
"Um... then who is that?" The members muttered as they saw Eli Jang walking in, carrying a child in his arms. His forehead also bore the letter 'H'.
Vin Jin tossed his sunglasses aside and walked in. "You better not mess with him. Even I... haven't seen Eli Jang this angry."
Eli Jang looked at them and said coldly, "I'll keep this short. Bring me Olly Wang."
