Korean-born, Utrecht-based chef blending heritage and European flair with homegrown veggies, fermentation, and creative Korean dining.

Born in Korea and based in Utrecht, I’m a self-taught chef blending Korean heritage with European flavours and techniques. My journey began in my grandmother’s kitchen, where I learned that food could tell stories and hold memories. Today, I grow my own Korean vegetables, forage local ingredients, and use fermentation — from kimchi to kombucha — to bring depth and life to my dishes. Each plate reflects the changing seasons and my passion for creating something beautiful, meaningful, and uniquely personal — your next level in Korean dining.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

A way to tell stories through flavour — creating something beautiful, memorable, and alive with the spirit of each season.

I learned to cook at...

My grandmother’s kitchen, where I watched her hands turn simple ingredients into comfort, teaching me that food carries love and memory.

A cooking secret...

I let the land and nature lead me — growing Korean vegetables, foraging local treasures, and using fermentation to capture time and taste.
