About the series

In the game of life, we all face countless quests of choice.

What it’s about

Kang Seong-jae, a conscript from a poor family, is assigned as an assistant to an army cook. A mysterious hologram appears and gives him culinary tasks, which he uses to shake up the military kitchen.

What hooks you

Park Ji-hoon plays Kang Seong-jae, and Yoon Kyung-ho appears as Park Jae-young. The series is based on a web novel by Jay Robin, with the screenplay by Choi Ryong. It is a 12-episode melodrama and drama from South Korea, directed by Jo Nam-hyeong.

Who it’s for

It will appeal to those who like stories about underdogs finding their place through skill and persistence, and to viewers who enjoy food-centred plots with a touch of fantasy. The military setting and the focus on cooking as a way to uncover secrets will suit anyone who likes character-driven drama with a light comic edge.
