What Kind of Rice Cake Is This Chapter 30: Release Date, Recap & Where to Read

What Kind of Rice Cake Is This Chapter 30 will be airing next week! After Siru’s rather comical encounter with Cheong, she was forced to explain herself to Gukhwa her best friend, before he turned his back on her. In the middle of their conversation, they’re eavesdropped by their classmates.

Now that the word was out, everyone began to assume Siru and Cheong’s relationship, especially considering how she had a big crush on someone else- Gibaek Seol. The upcoming chapter will reveal the drama of Siru’s sister as she goes to pay her a visit to her university.

We will also find out what Mijeol is planning to do after quitting the life of drinking and partying for something “even better.” What Kind of Rice Cake Is This is a Manhwa that talks about the dramatic college life of Gong Siru, who gets involved with Seol Gibaek and Jo Cheong.

While the former one was her crush, the latter was someone she kissed when drunk on alcohol, cussing out Gibaek. How will their relationship change as they continue to cross paths on campus? Will this love story have a happy ending?

Recap

Mijeol is on her phone at the club, and everyone is staring at her, glued to her phone rather than dancing and drinking. A man approaches her and tells her to stop touching her phone and start partying, but she smacks him off, saying she’s bored of doing the same thing every day.

He tells her that all she does is know how to party and that there’s nothing else for her to do. Mijeol tells him to shut up and scrolls past an Instagram post, saying she found the perfect pastime job for her rather than going to the club.

We go back to Siru screaming in class, calling for Gukhwa. She feels betrayed that he left her all alone and went to class without her, and he simply tells her that she shouldn’t have hidden things from him. He saw Siru in the act and felt bad that he wasn’t let in on her secret.

Siru is confused about what Gukhwa is talking about. Then, when he says Cheong’s name, she realizes the big misunderstanding that he was in. Gukhwa had seen them together, with Siru wrapping Cheong’s naked body with a towel.

Seeing how Gukhwa had mistaken the whole situation, Siru accidentally screams out what really happened, and her classmates end up hearing everything. Cheong had stained his clothes with something, and Siru’s place was the nearest, so he went to get cleaned up there.

However, to the rest of Siru’s classmates, this all seemed to go in a different direction. Gukhwa told her that since they now knew what had happened between her and Cheong, it was a matter of time till the whole school found out. 

Meanwhile, Siru’s sister is told by their mom to deliver kimchi for her younger sister. She’s annoyed at the task, but her mom convinces her how lonely Siru may be, especially as she is the only one living alone as of now.

On her way to the university, she decides to take a peek at Siru’s crush, Gibaek Seol. As she parks her car and gets out, Siru’s sister hears the group of students from earlier talking about Siru. The chapter ends with them being confronted by Siru’s sister and asked to repeat everything they just said.
