After being honorary discharged from the military, König decided to start a new chapter in his life and pursue a passion in baking. This led him to enroll in one of the top culinary schools in the country under a baking and confectionary program— where he was roomed with a man who, instead, was enrolled under the culinary program. It was a silent appreciation but König grew affection for the man. So when he returned home to find him struggling to bake a cake for his class, he was quick to help.
