The 'Space Rice Cake Shop' run by Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, Lee Young-ji, and An Yu-jin has ceased operations.

In the final episode of tvN's 'Space Rice Cake Shop,' broadcast on the 16th, the third business day at the Seoul store featuring part-time worker Do Kyung-soo was revealed, along with the long-awaited final business day.

On the third day of operations at the Seoul store, the Jirakis and Do Kyung-soo performed a surprise celebration for a customer whose birthday was approaching, creating a heartwarming atmosphere. The group visited tables singing 'Popcorn,' heating up the mood with their lively celebratory song.

As Lee Young-ji and Do Kyung-soo went to clean the second-floor hall, Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, and An Yu-jin, who remained in the kitchen, generated pink rumors about the two. The trio of rumor-mongers exchanged sly, smiling glances or could not contain their excitement when Do Kyung-soo and Lee Young-ji declined help and were left alone on the second floor.

The Jirakis set a new sales record with 2,109,500 won in revenue on the third day of operations at the Seoul store. For their final business day, they welcomed customers after adding menu items from the Gohung store and changing the overall menu names. Facing the risk of operating at a loss, they accepted headquarters' proposal to count walk-in customer sales at double value, leading them to enthusiastically engage in soliciting customers.

However, after deducting expenses during the settlement time, they faced the shocking result that the remaining profit was 128,850 won. The Jirakis entered into negotiations with headquarters, adjusting costs for lodging, rental cars, and airfare, ultimately receiving 2,816,500 won to be divided among them at approximately 700,000 won per person. Lee Young-ji exchanged her share for tableware for cooking tteokbokki, Lee Eun-ji for merchandise items, Mimi for delivery app gift certificates, and An Yu-jin for a headquarters usage pass allowing access to the headquarters building and staff.

In an epilogue revealed at the end of the broadcast, Mimi made a bold proposal to change her delivery app gift certificate into a usage pass that would allow her to run 'Space Rice Cake Shop' whenever she wanted, leaving the members stunned. A condition was attached requiring the consent of all four members, to which Lee Eun-ji responded, "You can just choose not to say you want to do it for your whole life, right?"

The 'Space Rice Cake Shop' is a penalty execution show in which Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, Lee Young-ji, and An Yu-jin, who failed Torong's escape mission in 'Bboong Bboong Earth Amusement Park 2,' work part-time at a space rice cake shop, offering a glimpse into the new sides of the Jirakis. Kitchen team members Mimi and Lee Young-ji cheered each other on and worked together to always serve food filled with sincerity, while hall team members Lee Eun-ji and An Yu-jin not only responded to customers kindly but also worked hard handling drink and dessert orders.

Amidst fatigue and hardship, the Jirakis' warm hearts and consideration for their members were evident, as was their cheerful banter in overcoming mannerism and burnout. The unique chemistry with part-time workers aespa's Karina, Gabi, and Do Kyung-soo added to the enjoyment.
